Does anyone know of any contractors in S Norfolk using a Weaving GD or a 750A drill?
We're looking to drill wheat after beans on a bad blackgrass field, I didn't want to plough up a lot of seed from last year. Would winter beans drill into s barley stubble or not go deep enough, again bad blackgrass.
Thanks, Ian

You'd probably increase your chances of finding someone if you changed the thread title to a 750 and yes it can drill winter beans in deep enough provided the discs aren't worn.

Well possibly Simon, but the JD dealer finds vaderstad far more lucrative to sell and hadn't, up to a while ago, sold a 750!
That was last year so maybe things are changing. I wouldn't dismiss a contractor with a 750, interested in both.
