It was fine in the first photo.
Was it the straps that overloaded it?

No, the downward pressure from the straps forced it in to the ground

2 blockages foundI guess so
Patience too? Never rush and "push" the land.
Ditches done on 5 yr rotation (digger man coming tomorrow actually). drains all run, (though suspect one blockage so looking at that too)
A couple of Neighbours were going too, but not all of them. Land no different to ours really. But big, heavy, power harrow drill combo on about 250hp. They will do a hell of a lot more area in a day than us though.
We just keep plodding on, on our little bit, in our own way. Never fashionable, never cutting edge, just us doing our thing.

That's what I thought you had pulled straps to tight putting extra weight on floor of trailer which inturn put extra weight on wheelsNo, the downward pressure from the straps forced it in to the ground

Great update!
My commiserations about the sheep situation!
Should have put the straps on the other way round. Lifts the weight off the wheels instead that way.
