Winter barley in no till.

How does these drills work with stones?
The biggest advantage powerharrows have on our land is they don’t pull up stones. A pig take cultivator pulls up plenty

Really depends on your stone quantities and size, small stones no worries but will definitely bring the big ones up.

Ours was the Lamma display drill, one of the very first, used all spring with great success now all sown for autumn into various soil types and conditions without fault. Just very very heavy our John Deere 6195r knows it’s there, pulling it is easy.

Is that a 4.8m or 6m wide unit?

6000m on the side of the tank means 6m.

Said on here somewhere at the time I thought that drill was the best bit of kit I saw at lamma. So simple and well engineered amongst all the over complicated stuff

Yes 6000m is 6m wide unit soon cover the acres in a day!

Yes it certainly is well engineered and very simple, drop it in and go, tractor purrs along at 1400revs about 10/12k all day long, after 3m combi it’s certainly a game changer no worries about running out of fuel now in a day, in fact 2days of sowing to one tank and almost a weeks worth of drilling in two days now.

Yes I bet it is. And a hell of a lot less paddling on headlands too I expect. Have you done much direct into stubble

All the spring sowing direct this year, and about 1/3 of our autumn planting direct, very low disturbance, quite amazing for a tine drill really.

Yes part of me thinks we should have bought one as we were running an accord tine seeder but swapped that for a weaving gd but feel there’s times when a tine would be better. Ironically probably in dryer weather. Bet that’s a bit of a culture shock compared to a combination

Looks nice.
Does your drill run off ISOBUS or has it a normal control box?

Just normal box, very easy to use!

First day out the new model, we had the old style for the year previous. Planted the rape a bit deep, other 10ha much cleaner, still working out the depth with with counters. This model has some nice features compared to the older model, much more user friendly

Hoping to get drilling wheat by friday in to some shallow cultivated ground.

 

[Wombat]

For all the users is the depth of the tine the seeding depth for wheat or does the tine run a bit below where the seed is delivered?

Tine about 2 or 3 inch below the seed tube, that will give you roughly the sort depth your after.

Thanks would u put the tube in the bottom hole for wheat then? And then run the tube at seed depth?

We have our tube on the middle hole at the moment, the odd one of top but putting it in well
