is it because you use lightweight equipment that your soils are in better condition?
I 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.

I am afraid that big tractors do spoil soil structure and so on.

Does your neighbour's land yield more than your land @carbonfibre farmer ?
