This what happens if you get four inches of rain and 28 degree C days on a crop of potatoes ready to harvest.

These weather conditions and how it differs in a small distance is unbelievable, I have friends 50 miles from us who can’t even spray stale seedbeds as it to wet and we are having to run a cultivator in front of our Freeflow as it’s gone that hard in the last couple of days it won’t go in the ground . We (in this area ) have been extremely lucky in the last ten days but still have wet patches in fields that won’t get drilled but I can live with that this year .

Rotovating old grassland. Yes I missed a little.
160 hp, 3 meters, 35 liter an hour. Ouch.
About 7 hectare to do.

How many ha/hr are you managing?

Tempted to do the same with a power harrow to avoid ploughing.

Remember this floor we concreted about 8 weeks ago…

We’ve more or less buried it now

Tempted to do the same with a power harrow to avoid ploughing.

Doing between 2.5 and 3 km/h so about 0.75 ha an hour.

They are made into crisps in Nairobi. Mainly they are sold in Kenya but they get sent to Dubai and the Seychelles as well.

I was supposed to build new stable door for granddaughter while she on half term but had a very good mate do it for us last Saturday.

I have some one coming in next week or so to replace a slab of concrete that's been down since 1968 , hardly 4 inch thick, lumps keep coming out and going to damage tire before long , I was going to dig out and leave it for my son's mates to do the hard bit which was planned before my wrist played up , anyway mate down the road is retaired and used to drive diggers come up as I can't really use left arm at moment so he dug out which I drove JCB to cart stuff away as can do that with right hand.

 

[GOODYSMATE]

Sympathies with the PMR; I missed out that version initially and went straight to the full blown GCA. Luckily spotted in time before I went blind. Still get flare ups of PMR 5 years later, still taking the steroids but have manged to get them down to a low dose, apart from hitting it hard when I get a flare up. Exhausts you doesn't it? Quite apart form the pain.
