[QUOTE="Richard III, post: 631333, member: 933"] I saw a press release in the yellow comic for the the new Claydon SR drill and thought 'what a good idea', but thankfully rather than ring Claydon's I started researching on the internet first. A trip to the first No Till Alliance day at [USER=319]@Simon C[/USER] 's farm convinced me as soon as I walked across one of his fields. I then went out and bought a Moore for £3000, as the late Elmstead was regularly advising people to do at the time. This was soon joined by a Simtec that cost slightly more. :) It all felt quite strange at first, but now feels very odd walking across a cultivated field. The most frustrating thing is how many hours of my life were spent crawling up and down a field on a power harrow drill, when I now get a much better seedbed by doing nothing at all. :whistle: [/QUOTE]
