Tram Lines

[Aerotek]

I have been shooting some drone footage of local farm land in Hertfordshire - Tram lines look so nice from the air, really admire some of the accuracy in farming this land.

I am not a farmer, just a member of the public that appreciates the land and what farmers do!.

It’s occasional posts like yours that keep us sane in light of all the nonsense that’s thrown at us these days.

Good video!

I always admire the circular loops round trees and pylons. Rarely ever done them here as find them tricky to do. Makes me wonder if a 4 wheel steer self propelled sprayer makes it easier to do than a tractor with trailed.

Thank you.. I thought I would get abuse for wasting your time .

If any farmer in Hertfordshire area needs any drone photography work happy to help free of charge.

good video, nice to see a clean even crop. . not about so much this year due to the weather. when i sprayed in beds for onions and asparagus that makes you think a lot more about where to have the tramlines. Id drill fields before having my PA's without much thought but after spraying for a period i found drilling a field that you will then be spraying makes you plan your tramlines better. i always did what i thought best for the sprayer as that's probably the most important machine on most farms when it comes to crop management and will be in there the most throughout the season.

We had ponds / islands like that out in 1960.

Never go round poles. I lift booms quite high and slam brakes on, drift seems to get most of it. I find going round poles overdoses inside and causes scorch.

I often wonder as to the wildlife utility of those little islands. Had a few on the estate I worked on. I never ventured in there to look.

So how do you get past pole once you've done this?

Back up enough to fold, drive past, fold out and back tight against pole then off I go.

I was also going to comment, unless it's an ultra modern sprayer...... which mine isn't

Sorry,nice video Aerotek

Pity there weren't drones about when I used to do neighbours spraying, drove through pylons dragging 12m boom behind (slowly)

Probably quite important in open arable areas, especially if away from roads & footpaths. Handy places for litters of cubs and for deer to bed through the day.

Ideal for various species to bed down on a sunny lunchtime.
