[QUOTE="Drillman, post: 7275930, member: 403"] Ok I will admit I’m a sceptic to some extent regarding DD but will never say never.... so current system plough and combi drill. wold land in North Yorkshire, light bits of fluffy chalk but also more Clay bits with flint among it. Usually in the same field. Land will go very tight if run about on too much even in a dry time. subsoilers are a bit of a no as well due to there horrific running costs regarding wearing parts. rotation included winter and spring barley, wheat OSR and sometimes spring Oats beans are a No no as too late to combine and linseed peas etc are out as they have historically never been a sucess up here. plenty muck as we have cattle but that also means balers, trailers spreaders etc running on the land. Not a flotation tyre on the farm either all trailers on super singles as they seem More puncture resistant on our land. do try to keep trailers on tramlines as much as possible but loader lifting bales etc has to run about. Everything is in house apart from muck spreading which is by contractor as don’t have the time really to do it myself. only talking 200 acre arable tractors available are 155 and 165hp. suggestions of where to start please.
