IS IT TIME TO â€˜FEADâ€™ YOUR TRACTOR?

The belt system repair solution for tractors. As the number of belt driven engine and safety critical components in modern tractors increases, so does the load on the Front End Auxiliary Drive (or FEAD) belt system, which can lead to premature wear and possible belt failure. Replacing just the belt may not be the answer, so INA has developed a FEAD KIT that contains all of the components you need to carry out a complete, professional and reliable repair that will keep your tractor running smoother for longer.

Out and About with the FG team It’s Cereals time again It’s hard to believe that following hot on the heels of a protracted winter and very late spring, the Cereals event is upon us again. With this magazine scheduled to arrive on farm during week beginning 29th May, the event will literally be days away by the time you read this. As ever, we’ve produced the industry’s biggest Cereals event preview in this edition; 52 pages of event info and product information from both the machinery and agronomy exhibitors. Organisers of the event have promised a new-look and improved experience for farmer visitors this year; features such as new Innovation Zones, the Agronomy Zone – with quick-fire presentations – and Knowledge transfer opportunities continue with new guided tours. For those who simply want to speak to specific exhibitors, the handy new ‘Here to Help’ service will point visitors in the right direction. Organisers say that there will still be some of the original favourite features, from the Soil Pit and the Drone Zone to the Syngenta Sprays & Sprayers Arena and the working machinery demonstrations. A new addition to the demonstrations area is the cover crop drilling demos, where exhibitors will demonstrate direct drilling on an area sown with a mix of cover crops. So there’ll be lots on offer at this year’s event, as always, but the best place to start is on page 67, right here!

Tractor winner

And finally… A farmer was involved in a car accident. He was hit by a truck owned by a large transport company. In court sometime later, the company’s hotshot lawyer was questioning the farmer. “Didn’t you say to the police at the scene of the accident; ‘I’m fine?’” he asked. The farmer responded: “Well, I’ll tell you what happened. I’d just loaded my favourite cow, Bessie, into the... “I didn’t ask for any details,” the solicitor interrupted. “Just answer the question. Did you not say, at the scene of the accident, ‘I’m fine!’?” The farmer said, “Well, I’d just got Bessie into the trailer and I was driving down the road...... The solicitor interrupted again and said, ‘Your Honour, I am trying to establish the fact that, at the scene of the accident, this man told the police that he was fine. Now several weeks after the accident, he is trying to sue my client. I believe he is a fraud. Please tell him to simply answer the question.”

Shortly before going to press, the lucky winners of the Case IH and Farmers Guide ‘Win a Luxxum Tractor’ competition received their prize. Livestock farmers JS Walton & Co based at Stock Plain Farm, Glasshouses, Harrogate, North Yorkshire have the use of this fantastic tractor and loader for up to six months after the farm’s entry, completed by Will Bradley, was pulled from the hat. A huge number of entries were received, from the Orkney Isles to Jersey, and from farms of all types and sizes. A full report

from the handover day will be in next month’s issue. Pictured are; (l-r) local Case IH main dealer JG Paxton & Sons area sales manager Chris Gall; Daniel Walton with son Jack; Will Bradley, Case IH area sales manager Barry Ward, John Walton and JG Paxton & Sons sales manager looking after Case IH, Will Paxton.

By this time, the Judge was fairly interested in the farmer’s answer and said to the solicitor: “I’d like to hear what he has to say about his favourite cow, Bessie.” The farmer thanked the Judge and proceeded. “Well as I was saying, I had just loaded Bessie, my favourite cow, into the trailer and was driving her down the road when this huge truck came thundering through a red light and hit my trailer right in the side. I was thrown into a ditch on one side of the road and Bessie was thrown into one on the other. I was hurt, very bad like, and didn’t want to move. However, I could hear old Bessie moanin’ and groanin’. I knew she was in terrible pain just by her groans. “Shortly after the accident, a policeman on a motorbike turned up. He could hear Bessie moanin’ and groanin’ too, so he went over to her. After he looked at her, and saw her condition, he took out his gun and shot her between the eyes. “Then the policeman came across the road, gun still in hand, looked at me, and asked how I was feeling. “Now what the blazes would you say?”

Grain & Fertiliser Gossip

by Graham Henderson – graham@henders.biz

59444

Grain Gossip The reopening of the Vivergo bioethanol plant on Humberside, after a four-month closure, is still causing havoc with the UK feed market. The ex-farm price of feed wheat is currently being maintained much higher in the vicinity of Humberside however haulage to the plant is determining the ex-farm market elsewhere. Thus, in East Anglia, spot wheat is trading at around £148/t ex-farm for June movement which is probably some £8/t above the real market. Elsewhere in the UK prices are also being influenced by haulage costs to Humberside. Worldwide prices have increased due to weather factors. In the US, due to drought and freeze stress, the projected harvest has been reduced by some 10 per cent year on year. However increased moisture levels have now been experienced in areas further west of Kansas so we must wait to see the effect of this. Argentina and the European Black Sea

There is nothing more pleasant than the early summer weather which is upon us. Birds singing, the colour of flowers, the green of trees and vegetation all inspire pleasure, as does the warmth of the sunshine. It has put uplift into my life these last few weeks and I hope it has done the same for you. It is not often that I wax lyrical but such is life, it must be age! The EU has finally concluded with a ban on the use of ‘neonic’ chemicals on all crops which will obviously affect UK growers, and it is feared that this will significantly affect sugar beet yield in particular. Currently the NFU is fighting this ban specifically on sugar beet but I hold out little hope of a change in attitude from Defra with Gove in charge. Readers may be aware of my interest in coastal erosion and other coastal activities. In this context I was pleased to hear recently of the co-operation between NFU and CLA staff on the subject of The Coastal Path around the UK. In some areas of the UK there have been problems with the possibility of establishing paths along estuaries that have had no public footpaths before. The alternative in the original government instructions was that if a passenger ferry existed at the river mouth no path was necessary. In the West Country this has been established in some locations but it remains a battle with some East Anglian estuaries. The NFU and CLA have engaged with Natural England to re-establish the facts ready for discussions on these east coast rivers. On the whole we are currently enjoying a spell of good weather between the showers and many farms are now well up to date with spring work. It is more than pleasing to be enjoying good weather even though it is interspersed with the occasional cold and dreary day.

areas have suffered drought as has Australia, although excessive rains have recently arrived in the latter. UK Feed wheat for harvest on futures prices is at £138/t ex-farm with a rise to £143–£144/t for November.

Fertiliser fragments With main dressings gone onto winter wheat crops in recent weeks, CF has lowered its Nitram prices to compete with the lower prices of imports. The company remains determined to dominate the UK market which is good for growers. There is also currently a spot increase in demand for compounds, mainly NKs for the aftercut market which has encouraged CF to reduce these prices as well against imported blends. Season ahead fertiliser prices for 2018–2019 are often announced at Cereals which this year is destined to take place at Duxford, Cambridgeshire on 13th & 14th June. Numbers attending this event have dropped off in recent years but the organisers will be hoping for up to 20,000 visitors over the 2 days.

Rugby Ramblings The premiership produced two great semi-final matches this weekend (w/e 19th/20th May.) Both winning teams, Saracens who beat Wasps and Exeter who beat Newcastle, did so with comparative ease and there is no doubt they will produce an excellent final at Twickenham. “Sarries” played well in all departments with Mako Vunipola in particularly good form alongside good performances by Kruis and Itoje. The backs, led by new England captain Owen Farrell who was at his best, were superb throughout the match and they won by a 24 point difference. In the second match Exeter gave a dominating performance over Newcastle from start to finish and concluded with a

31-point difference. Despite recent good displays from Newcastle they were no match for Exeter and did not take their chances when they had opportunity. In the first half in particular, Exeter, playing against the wind, had over 90 per cent possession. With the England squad off to South Africa this summer it is pleasing to see that Eddie Jones has included some fresh faces in the squad but I and many others are pleased to see Cipriani in the squad before he joins Gloucester.

Soil management

Mythbusting

Cultivation comes under soil husbandry specialist Steve Townsend’s spotlight as he sets out to separate more ‘wheat from the soil management’ chaff in the third of our myth-busting series.

‘Cultivation will give you the soil structure you need’

It also disrupts the natural subsoiling action of previous crop roots that provide preferred pathways for new root penetration and drainage of rainfall. In fact, deep cultivation works against everything that makes the greatest natural contribution to soil structuring – organic matter, earthworms and old root runs, not to mention Father Time. And the sheer amount of weight and horsepower needed doesn’t do most soils any favours either. So, the most sustainable way of improving soil structure is, as I’ve been saying for ages, less not more in the tillage department. We need to allow the sort of carbon-fuelled biology we see under permanent pastures to work its magic; not least letting the glomalin and vast array of other organic compounds produced by soil flora and fauna develop the tilth and stable soil particles we need without continual disruption and disturbance.

No-till approach

Deep cultivation works against everything that makes the greatest natural contribution to soil structuring, says Steve Townsend.

If there’s one thing I’ve learned in my life in farming it’s that cultivations will never improve soil structure. They may help to overcome an immediate problem – like compaction, but they are only ever a short-term fix; and not a very good one, either. We have to understand that cultivations always leave some sort of pan. Either a mechanical pan from smearing or trafficking. Or a sedimentation pan where the act of moving the soil puts the surface crumb beneath lumps from the previous year’s pan. It may not be immediately obvious but it’s always there. And it will always build to bite you back. Yes, subsoiling is sometimes necessary to deal with structural damage – most often from previous soil working under the wrong conditions. But rotational subsoiling as a matter of course – regardless of whether or not it’s needed or where – is a big No-No. Mainly because subsoiling is like heroin to a soil; once you start doing it you need to do it more and more. Civil engineers use deep tines 8

on ground they want to get as hard as possible, knowing that deep loosening is one of the best ways of making soils slump and compact. The poorer the soil the better from their point of view. So it completely defeats me why so many of us who want to achieve exactly the opposite – quite often with some fairly poorly-structured soils – continually turn to metal at depth. Maybe it’s not only our soils that are addicted?

In my experience, shallow top down cultivation is the minimum requirement for building the sort of soil structure we need. And my preference is for cultivating only the relatively small amount of ground around the seed as part of a no-till approach. This gives us the best of all possible worlds. We achieve a nice tilth where the seed really needs it for germination and establishment while maintaining the best, undisturbed soil structure everywhere else. We get rapid and effective root proliferation to depth, just the right conditions for nutrient and water uptake and the least crop vulnerability to drought or flood.

We also get ground with a greater ability to tolerate traffic, fewer weed problems, lower cultivation costs and higher establishment work rates. Of course, this sort of natural structural improvement doesn’t offer the quick fix of sub-soiling. It often takes three or four years of determined action to bring a soil round and overcome the problems created by over-cultivation. Equally, we can’t just move into direct drilling overnight and expect everything to improve. Unless we want to create even more problems for ourselves, that is. Instead, we need to build the resilience of our soils by steadily reducing our tillage, allowing the natural soil structuring processes to reassert themselves from depth. While we are doing this too we need to accept that we’re in a transition that may mean we have to accept some short-term pain for the long-term gain we’re after. Not only this, but we should also reconsider a number of other things we’ve always done – like incorporating straw. Appreciating the complex physical, chemical and biological characteristics of our greatest asset – the soil – and working with it to make the most of them has to be a better way forward than continually trying to rely on cold hard steel and plenty of horsepower. This will never give us the sustainable soil structure we need. Between exploring more of what he sees as today’s most damaging soil management myths with us, Steve Townsend is more than happy to discuss any tillage or soil management issues, interests or concerns with Farmers Guide readers by email on steve. townsend@soilfirstfarming.co.uk

Organic matter As well as hugely damaging to longterm soil structure, deep cultivation, in particular, is the enemy of organic matter. Every time we introduce air into the soil it oxidises carbon from our precious OM bank. The more air we inject the more carbon we lose. So, unless we’re making regular deposits to our most valuable farm bank account, cultivations are just pushing us further into the red. As if that’s not enough, working soil to a depth of more than 4in decimates the deep-burrowing worms that are nature’s ploughmen.

It often takes three or four years of determined action to bring a soil round and overcome the problems created by over-cultivation.

New variety Gauguin drilled in Norfolk on the 23rd March.

New beet varieties feature high yields and low bolting The five new varieties added to the 2019 Recommended (RL) and to the Descriptive (DL) List reflect the continued improvement in yield and other characteristics, such as bolting, said the BBRO when it announced the new List in early May. Five new varieties have been added to the RL and DL; BTS 1140 from Limagrain UK Ltd, Kortessa KWS from KWS UK, Jura from SESVanderHave UK and Gauguin from Strube UK to the RL, and Philina KWS to the DL. “Although 2017 trials were affected by the dry cold conditions at the start of the season, the control varieties in the trials still managed to achieve a mean yield of 114 adjusted tonnes per hectare with new varieties offering up to a 7.6 per cent yield increase above that,” commented RL Board chairman, Mike May. “In addition it is also good to see some of the new varieties with very low bolting, an important requirement for many UK sugar beet growers.” Two of the new RL varieties, Jura and Gauguin are BCN tolerant. With the high yields that breeders have managed to breed into these varieties,

these are not restricted to the DL list, as was the case prior to the 2018 RL, and are therefore recommended for general use. Philina KWS was added to the DL for use specifically where AYPR has been identified in a field and provides a superior yield to the variety it replaces. The yield results on the DL, and for BCN varieties, are in the absence of these problems. “Before ordering BCN or AYPR tolerant varieties, growers should discuss options with the BBRO and breeders who will have more information on their performance in the presence of the problem,” advises Mr May.

crop. This comes hand-in-hand with excellent sugar content and favourable on-farm agronomics such as low bolting figures at normal sowing date and very good disease resistance. Bred by Betaseed, and marketed by agents Limagrain UK, the 2019 BBRO Recommended List clearly shows that the yield potential of BTS 1140 is significantly above the

most widely grown varieties in 2018, yielding 107.6 per cent (adjusted tonnes), over three years of trials. BTS 1140 also has a high sugar content of 18 per cent. This significant 2–3 per cent increase in yields seen each year in newly recommended sugar beet varieties on the RL is very exciting for the UK’s sugar beet growers, says Limagrain sugar beet consultant, Bram Van der Have (right). “This year the newly recommended varieties offer a 7.6 per cent increase over the control varieties,” he adds. “We are in the fortunate position where breeders are still able to push yields without compromising the sugar content – and this is at a time when many other arable crop yields have plateaued.” However, the value and importance of on-farm characteristics of sugar beet to UK growers is also reflected in this recommendation, he says. continued over...

“While yield and sugar content are the top criteria for choosing a new sugar beet variety, factors such as establishment and bolting tolerance are also very important – particularly when deciding which variety is the best for a certain situation. “For those looking to drill at the normal to later time from mid-March onwards, as most growers will have done this season, BTS 1140 fits this drilling slot very well. It has excellent bolting tolerance – with only 14 bolters per 100,000 plants/ha – one of the lowest on the RL list. This is combined with good emergence characteristics and a good tolerance to rust. It is also rhizomania tolerant. “BTS 1140 is likely to appeal to the grower who wants to take the next step up in yields, and we would encourage growers to try it and take part in raising the bar in sugar beet production even higher.”

Combined benefits New sugar beet varieties from KWS for 2019 combine excellent yield potential with excellent early drilling performance and resistance to the AYPR strain of rhizomania, says the breeder.

Kortessa KWS has a yield of 106.2 per cent of controls putting it in the top three highest yielding varieties on the BBRO RL 2019. It is also well suited to an early drilling slot as the second highest yielding variety suitable for sowing before mid-March after Daphna, the highest yielding variety on the RL for the second year running. With excellent performance for bolters when sown after mid-March however, Kortessa KWS comes into its own with the lowest bolting score of any high-yielding variety. It also has an exceptional resistance score for rust. “The variety is another step forward in yield progression at more than 6 per cent higher than the average of controls,” says KWS sugar beet UK-country manager Ben Bishop (right). “Its yield potential, excellent performance across all sowing dates and high resistance against one of the most prevalent diseases of recent years makes it a compelling proposition for those

with a long growing season.” Also new for 2019 is Philina KWS. At 104.9 per cent of controls it is in the top-five highest yielding varieties for 2019, while its resistance to the AYPR strain of aggressive rhizomania will be welcomed by those affected by this devastating disease. “Yielding comfortably ahead of the control varieties, Philina KWS means those with land affected by AYPR now have a genuinely high yielding alternative to Sandra KWS. This will improve performance across the rotation and further support yields across the industry,” says Mr Bishop.

Early sowing bonus Newly-recommended Jura, the latest variety from SESVanderHave, offers sugar beet growers the opportunity to gain extra yield from early sowing thanks to its low early bolting scores. Early sowing of sugar beet seed extends the growing season by up to six or eight weeks and therefore increases the crop’s yield potential. However, early sowing also increases the risk of bolters that can impair yield and

hamper harvest. Therefore, when studying the BBRO’s Recommended List, pay attention to both yield and the ‘Early Sown Bolters’ data, says the company. As bolting is a response to stress and cold, it is important to look at the consistency of performance over the three years provided by the Recommended List. “Bolting is a response to environmental factors, especially temperature,” says SESVanderHave’s UK research and development manager Richard Robinson (left). “No variety provides a complete safeguard against bolting, but Jura’s score of just over 3,000 per hectare (early sowing) provides much greater assurance than other varieties with scores of two or three times that level. “Including Jura in the mix of varieties sown will enable growers to capture that early sowing bonus yield with far more certainty of success,” he adds. In addition, Jura has tolerance

to beet cyst nematode (BCN) and resistance to rhizomania. BCN is an increasing threat in the UK’s sugar beet growing areas. Jura provides tolerance without the depression in yield seen in earlier varieties. “Our trials experience in the UK and the message we keep getting from growers is how important low bolting and consistent performance are,” says Mr Robinson. “That is why we continue to see a large part of the UK sugar beet crop sown with SESVanderHave varieties, such as Firefly, Bloodhound and Aurora.”

Rhizo resistant Welcoming the new RL, Strube UK managing director Richard Powell (right) said: “We are delighted that our new variety Gauguin, which has rhizomania resistance and BCN tolerance, has joined the List this year. Gauguin is an excellent demonstration of the breeding advances that have been made, with a BCN tolerant variety delivering sugar yields equal to and greater than many leading varieties.” Mr Powell also pointed out

that, with the further loss of crop protection chemistry, good bolting resistance in varieties will now be of increasing importance. “The ability to drill a variety earlier, without the risk of undue bolting, will increase in significance. This is so that we can achieve sugar beet plants with 12 true leaves by early May, making the plants much less attractive to aphids. Growers should now be concentrating on early bolting resistance more than ever,” he explained. “Gauguin, with very low early sown bolting (the lowest of any Listed variety in 2017) is an excellent choice for early drilling. This character, combined with its high sugar yield and BCN tolerance, makes it a good, high-value choice to enable growers to address and mitigate future threats. “After a record breaking year for sugar beet in 2017, when extraordinary yields were achieved with varieties like Haydn; the majority of this year’s crop has had to be drilled late into what, in many cases, are pretty poor seedbeds. We will see what the season brings. Sugar beet is

a remarkable crop, well known for its ability of surprising us with its yield, tenacity and recovery.” The RL/DL table can be found on the BBRO website (bbro.co.uk) along with the supplementary

tables showing the three-year data for the varieties, plus seed provenance, vernalisation experienced in the early sown bolter trials over the last three years and juice impurities. ■

New energy beet raises gas yields AD growers have a new energy beet to consider for 2018 with Eloquenta KWS offering higher dry matter yields some 16 per cent above that of industry standard, Gerty KWS. In addition to its high dry matter content of 24.65 per cent, it offers a low dirt tare. Compared with Beretta, a feed beet also from KWS that has proved popular with AD operators because of its high dry matter yields, Eloquenta KWS has a dirt tare nearly 20 per cent lower at roughly 518g/kg DM. “The variety is the next step in our breeding programme designed to bring high dry matter yields which in turn bring high gas yields per ha,” says KWS sugar beet UK-country manager Ben Bishop. “Where the biogas operator wants high DM content, high yields and low dirt tare then Eloquenta KWS can offer it all.” “Alongside high dry matter, we recognise the difficulties growers have at harvest in keeping soil off their beet and in the field. An important breeding characteristic is the production of a smooth skinned beet with a reduced ‘root groove’ and as a result, our best variety is Cindy KWS followed by Gerty KWS,” he adds. Introduced in 2011, Gerty KWS combines high DM yields with low dirt tares and on the back of its consistency over contrasting seasons, it has been widely adopted on farm. “Gerty KWS sits slightly higher out of the ground than other varieties and this, combined with its smooth skin, serves to minimise dirt tares. We expect it to retain its place as a favourite variety of AD growers,” says Mr Bishop.

more straw and support soil bacteria. Use of the plough has also been retained to reduce the viability of seeds by burying them and bad patches are sprayed off before the weed sets seed. “Sugar beet is the obvious crop to plough before as it spreads the seasonal workload. Research also indicates beet yields are better in deep cultivated soils because root growth is less constrained. We have also returned to tractor hoeing in beet for added control,” he explains.

Protecting herbicide efﬁcacy from hard water hang-ups Martin Sweet can remember the day black-grass arrived on his farm. Little did he know that 20 years later it would be the bane of his farming life. “It came in via a baling contractor. On the spot where the first bale was ejected up came a dense patch of black-grass. We didn’t know what it was at the time, but we certainly do now,” he says. Over the years it has been steadily moved around the farm, principally through machinery carrying it between fields, and its influence has increased as the problem worsened. “We do what we can to keep machines clean, but it’s a small seed and it gets into the deepest of places; sometimes, it’s just not practical to stop and clean machinery before moving fields,” he explains. Farming 255ha on the Whittlesey Fen in north Cambridgeshire, Mr Sweet employs a rotation comprising sugar beet, peas, wheat and oilseed rape with a small area sown to chamomile for medicinal applications on behalf of a neighbour. “With herbicide efficacy falling, the rotation has become an important part of my efforts to control all weeds. What began as a desire to better control black-grass has become standard

practice,” he explains. “We have relied on a limited number of herbicides for too long. Resistance to certain sulfonylurea herbicides is widely reported and there is mounting evidence that a number of dims may also be affected,” he adds.

Declining performance The seriousness of herbicide resistance came home to bite however, one day when he was walking a field of wheat. “It crept up on me over the course of several seasons, but I began to notice the declining performance of cycloxydim. I then had the scary thought that if the same were to happen to glyphosate, then it would be the beginning of the end for arable crops on this farm,” he says. This was the catalyst for change. Cereal varieties with a slow growth habit were dropped in favour of those with strong autumn vigour and a granular applicator added to the Cambridge rolls to enable more precise application of tri-allate. The use of contract balers on the farm has also declined sharply. This is partly to reduce the opportunity for weed seeds to be introduced, but also because of a desire to incorporate

Protecting glyphosate To protect the performance of glyphosate however, he has adopted two tactics. “First, don’t cut the application rate from what is advised for the weed burden; and second, don’t let its performance be impaired by hard water.” Glyphosate is one of the more susceptible active ingredients affected by hard water and several manufacturers actively promote its used with a water conditioner to limit the effect cations have on its performance. “Like many users my water is sourced from the mains and as with much of East Anglia our water is high in calcium carbonate, typically in excess of 300mg/litre. This is not something I could responsibly leave unaddressed,” he explains. Following a discussion with his agronomist Stuart Walsham of Frontier Agriculture, he began using AquaScope, a blended water conditioner containing a range of complexing agents, at an inclusion rate of 0.25 per cent of water volume to nullify the effects of calcium and other salts. “Before going ahead, I looked at its performance in trials to better understand its contribution across a range of herbicides. The uplift in efficacy was quite impressive and it was clear that it was supporting

herbicide performance. We now use AquaScope treated water with almost everything, including fungicides.” What made it easy to use in practice however, was Frontier’s supply of AquaScope in 1,000-litre IBCs which removed the burden of cleaning and disposing of 5-litre containers. The IBC facilitates pre-conditioning of water when filling a cold-water storage tank with a Dosatron metering unit. This unit is plumbed directly into the fresh water supply, complete with one-way valve and works directly from the water pressure. No power is required and it is easily installed. “There are many benefits to growers using AquaScope,” says Frontier’s contracting sales manager at Holbeach, Stuart Maltby. “Crucially, the water is conditioned before it enters the spray tank and comes into contact with any chemical, and the inclusion rate is both accurate and consistent.” ■ 59450

Field f cus Knock-on affects from a late spring, crops racing through the growth stages, input application windows squeezed. These are just some of the challenges being encountered by our agronomists in the early summer. Dominic Kilburn writes.

It seemed like the longest and wettest winter ever, reckoned Notts-based agronomist Christina Scarborough. Crops she said have gone from looking terrible a short while ago, to now racing so fast through the growth stages that applying inputs at the right timing remains a challenge. Speaking in mid May, Christina suggested that oilseed rape crops had one of the shortest flowing periods she can remember and that growers who managed to get a sclerotinia spray on at all, had done well. “It was so wet right up to the beginning of May that growers just couldn’t get on the land in places,” she added. Autumn cereal pre-emergence herbicides worked very well, she said, and this helped reduce the grass weed burden in the spring. “I applied new product Monolith (mesosulfuron + propoxycarbazone) as a different option on some of the weaker black-grass coming through where it was an issue,” she commented. Squeezed barley input timings will also prove challenging where Axial (pinoxaden) is being considered for black-grass and

where growers are also planning to use an SU for broad-leaved weed control. “There must be a 7-day spray window between the 2 when Axial is used first, and it’s a 14-day window if the SU is applied first. “The way crops are at the moment it will be hard for us to do both and it will be a case of one or other, depending on the priority,” she added. Oskar (fenoxaprop) is another option for wild oats in barley and this can be applied a little later in the season, she noted. Spring barley, spring beans and sugar beet have all been drilled late – some as recently as mid May. “While getting crops in the ground late is of concern for many, I don’t actually think there will be a big knock-on effect in terms of harvest timings. “Last year, for example, it was a cold and dry spring, and crops just sat there and didn’t grow. This year they have gone in late but they will get away very quickly in the current conditions,” she explained. For winter wheat fungicide programmes, she said it had been particularly challenging for her mixed farmers where silaging operations had clashed, and so her recommendations had been for more robust programmes and at longer intervals.

Christina also highlighted that growers in the Countryside Stewardship Scheme or BPS EFA should ensure their hedging details are correct ahead of a 6th July deadline. With the RPA having re-done the digital mapping, along with Ordnance Survey data, there could be some discrepancies – and they need to be corrected for applications. Christina can be contacted via email: Christina@cjsagronomy. co.uk or tel: 07969507082.

Northamptonshire As seems to be the case for most, Northants AICC adviser Damian McAuley said that the protracted winter and very late spring has led to some major challenges this season. Also speaking in mid May, he said that the first of the spring crops, including spring barley, wheat and beans went in the ground at the end of March but with the weather remaining very cold and wet, many crops struggled and some eventually had to be re-drilled. “We particularly had some very late-drilled spring beans which is new territory for us and it will be interesting to see how they get on,” Damian said, adding that much will depend on the weather over the next few weeks. “If we get sunshine without high temperatures, and rainfall without the deluges, then the crop should be OK,” he reckoned. Disease pressure in wheat from septoria has been high all season and robust T2 sprays will have been applied in the week before this magazine lands on the doormat.

“With crops responding to daylight length, T2 sprays always go on at a similar time but I have certainly seen a lot of septoria in wheat this season,” commented Damian. Early season mildew and rust was less prevalent, he noted. He said that insect pressure in crops had been limited, however due to the very wet spring slug numbers were high and this could have a knock-on affect for autumn establishment, particularly if there is moisture during the summer months. Damian suggested that of all the seasons, this was the one to get good black-grass control on the back of an exceptional autumn. “That said, growers mustn’t rest on their laurels this autumn. All the pieces of the jigsaw that deliver good black-grass control came together nicely and so it was as good as it gets. “If there are growers, however, that have still struggled badly with black-grass then there might be a need to change the system on farm,” he added. T3 ear washes and the Cereals event are next on Damian’s agenda – for the latter he will be helping out on the AICC’s stand (506). “A lot of people are surprised to hear that as much as 50 per cent of the cropped area in the UK is overseen by AICC agronomists. “It’s important that they understand that we are being paid for our advice, and not for the supply of chemical, and that’s the difference,” he pointed out. As well as looking at the crop plots, Damian said that he will spend as much time studying the latest cultivators and drills at the show – an aspect of the overall advice he offers that is just as important as that which he offers on chemistry, he concluded. Damian can be contacted on email: damian@indigro.co.uk. ■

generally good across the country, although again we are seeing a fair degree of variability – almost certainly due to the stress many crops have been under.

Compensation This variability makes the superior ability of the best hybrids to compensate with more extensive podding in better-branched canopies more welcome than ever; especially if limited crop growth in the cold spring means a greater availability of

nitrogen for pod fill. It will, however, be crucial to give crops enough time to compensate ahead of harvesting. We know that every day of pod fill lost reduces yields by 1–2 per cent and most oil is accumulated in the second half of pod filling. So the last thing crops will need this season is desiccating too early. Glyphosate spraying needs to be timed to the maturity of the pods in the part of the canopy bearing the lion’s share of the yield. This may be up to a week later than main raceme ripeness but, with pod shatter resistance cutting the risk of seed loss from more mature pods, sufficient patience will be well-rewarded. ■

Minimise seed losses with pod shatter resistance

Dekalb trials manager, Anders Christensen assesses OSR development at flowering from the company’s network of 25 trial sites in the third of our sponsored series. OSR performance this season will depend as much on crops’ ability to compensate for the challenges of a cold start and aggressive late pigeon grazing – not to mention damage from flea beetle larvae – as anything else. Long-awaited spring warmth worked wonders for crop growth and development. But, as I write in early May, flowering is only peaking in much of the country and just starting in Scotland. As well as lateness, variability is the one thing defining this year’s crops. Some are chest high and others barely up to the waist. And some plants in some parts of a field are in full flower while others in other areas are just starting to yellow-up. Some crops seem to be having the short, sharp flowering that really helps light interception and sclerotinia management. But for those trying to recover from earlier setbacks, it could well be a far more prolonged affair, putting the onus on the most effective flowering spray programmes.

Development differences DK Extrovert, DK Expedient and DK Exalte are continuing to stand out for their earliness in our 27-variety trials

set. Averaged across our English sites, all three have earliness of flowering scores a good one point (on a 1–9 scale) ahead of last season’s RL leader, included for comparison. Among the Clearfield varieties, DK Impressario CL is maintaining its earliness advantage. What’s more, two promising new HOLL varieties are looking well ahead of the V316OL benchmark. Interestingly too, we are seeing clear differences in the growth habit of the low biomass (semi-dwarf) hybrids we are testing, two of them coming into flower noticeably earlier than the other and the fastest developer being almost up with DK Exalte. All our varieties have coped well with flea beetle larvae pressures, which seem to have declined markedly in previous hotspots for the pest. In areas where we have recorded more than 50 larvae/plant in the past, for instance, we haven’t found 15 larvae per plant this season. While nowhere near this level, our monitoring suggests other parts of the country are seeing a general increase in flea beetle larvae which may be further contributing to crop variability. Early pod set looks to have been

Seed losses of as much as 0.5t/ha can be saved in the normal run-up to harvesting with genetic resistance to pod shattering, reveal the latest trials run for us by ADAS. Its replicated trials last season involved nine leading varieties in commercial use, with standard laboratory shattering tests conducted on three separate occasions from the end of June – at 10, 50 and 90 per cent pods ripe respectively. In parallel to this, natural seed losses were measured using aluminium trays laid beneath the variety plots three weeks prior to planned harvest and removed just ahead of combining. Even at 10 per cent of pods ripe, shattering was significantly higher in susceptible varieties than in those with Dekalb pod shatter resistance. These differences became more apparent with increasing pod maturity so that at 90 per cent ripeness, shattering in our resistant varieties was typically less than half that in the non-resistant ones. Significant differences in natural pre-harvest losses were also quantified; shatter susceptible varieties losing the equivalent of 0.23–0.57t/ha ahead of combining against the 0.1t/ha or less lost by those with pod shatter resistance. This work supports the variety differences highlighted in previous John Innes Centre random impact testing and NIAB/TAG delayed harvest trials which identified a yield gap of 6–9 per cent between shatter resistance and susceptible varieties of the same genetic potential with combining delays of 7–14 days. It underlines the value of a high level of natural protection against seed losses ahead of combining under normal circumstances, not to mention particularly heavy rain and hail storms. Shatter resistance also allows harvesting to be timed to secure the highest outputs from well-structured canopies at the least risk of losing seed from over-ripe upper pods. And it even enables quality wheats to be prioritised for combining ahead of OSR without undue worry should the need arise.

AGRONOMY UPDATE – EAST

Agrovista agronomist Rob Sheets previews T3 ear sprays and reviews direct drilling after cover crops. Crops have been through a lot this spring, so it is not surprising that they have eventually raced through growth stages and in many cases picked up a lot of disease along the way. I think most crops have potential and those where nutrition was applied early are on a different page compared with some others which have struggled. By the time this is read, T2 fungicides have hopefully been

applied to winter wheat at around three-quarter leaf 1 emerged. Ear sprays at T3 are next to protect grain quality, ideally timed at GS6165 (early flowering) if targeting ear fusarium and mycotoxin reduction. Fungicide choice will depend on variety. Some, like Siskin and Crusoe, have a brown rust weakness so may need some extra protection on top of the usual triazole used for fusarium protection. On most varieties, I’ll opt for at

least 75 per cent dose of Monkey, which delivers a high amount of tebuconazole and prochloraz, two effective actives in reducing fusarium graminearum and michrodochium nivale. In addition, this will give very good brown rust activity. Where some varieties require extra rust protection, a 50 per cent dose of Conclude (azoxystrobin) can be added, provided only one strobilurin has been used on the crop to date. This also delivers some physiological benefits. Where multi-sites might be needed in the T3, Unizeb Gold provides a big dose of mancozeb, which performs well as a multi-

DISC ROLLER ‘CONTOUR’ Precise shallow cultivation and consolidation

Precise depth control and contour following gives uniform soil movement across the full operational width - vital if employing reduced tillage or creating stale seedbeds for blackgrass control.

AS GOOD AS IT LOOKS

Drilling dates Drilling dates are as variable as the weather this season, so spring barley growth stages often differ widely from farm to farm. T1 timing at GS30 will be imminent in many crops. With concerns over the potential for resistance among some barley diseases to certain fungicide groups, I will look to recommend a combination of actives from different groups. In most cases this will be a twothirds dose of Haven (prothioconazole + fluoxastrobin + trifloxystrobin) + a quarter dose of Inception Xpro (bixafen) + chlorothalonil. General broad-leaved weed control and a PGR will be included, along with the biostimulant Terra Sorb foliar plus to encourage tiller preservation and plant health (if not already applied), plus appropriate foliar nutrition. Direct drilling into cover crops has gone really well again this spring, albeit two to three weeks later than last year. Spraying these covers off early has again been essential, with most of mine destroyed November/December or January where they are being used for EFA. The extended drying time after the canopy has gone has been helpful, but, importantly, the benefits have not been lost. Rooting systems from the likes of black oat, vetch, berseem clover and phacelia have left the soil in much better condition four months later at drilling time, compared with bare soil. Crucially, the low-disturbance drilling achieved by the right drill type, and facilitated by roots holding the soil, should lead to fewer grass weed problems in the spring crop.

Food security and data accuracy should not be underestimated Openfield head of research, compliance and shipping, Cecilia Pryce says that she is surprised more attention isn’t paid to arable data which can provide greater market transparency, and she also cautions against the continual eroding of productive arable land which could result in a greater reliance on imported crops in the future.

With the Government’s Health and Harmony consultation now closed I wonder how long it will take Defra to respond, and what that response will look like. Agricultural policy changes have never been easy, you only have to look back in history, to the repeal of the Corn Laws in 1815 and 1846 to realise how countless governments have had a go. This time around I believe the UK may be about to create the first agricultural policy that doesn’t put food security as a top priority. Over the years I have studied many sets of data and often raised my eyebrows when issues relating 11.05.2018 13:17:21 to data seem to be dismissed as not important, only to find that market price proves otherwise. At the start of May, Defra published the England area data for 2015, 2016 and 2017 crop years based on the Basic Payment Scheme forms. Of course, data runs the risk of errors, but for many years, the trade has been asking why such data hasn’t been published alongside area planting data. This would act as a double check and provide more market transparency, and after all it should be much better information than survey data, and is exactly what the Health and Harmony paper was asking for. In the end, the data was published and it makes for a good read, yet I am still struggling to see Hardcastle Ventacrop are specialists in the manufacture and installation of if anyone else noticed.

end of the 2015/16 crop year and the weight of grain that was still in the market at harvest. Subsequent years showed other swings, but many may think a few 100,000t less, or more of wheat or barley won’t make a big difference, but it does. Prices of commodities are very sensitive, and many consumers are now ‘just in time’ buyers, having had the luxury of relative constant supply of grains, largely at export parity prices, created by large global supplies and relatively cheap shipping costs, but they may have to review their approach.

How productive?

If the UK arable cropping area continues to erode, being lost to development land and ‘new’ environmental schemes, how much more productive does the remaining cultivated land have to become? How much better can yields really be? The risk of the UK returning to become a major cereal importer is actually not that far away and at that point how many other industries run the risk of being lost? Animal feed prices will rise, reducing livestock numbers, ethanol, starch and distilleries could become unviable and our daily loaf of bread is likely to be largely made up of imported wheat. The future is far from clear, but food security and data accuracy should not be underestimated and should form a large part of any agricultural policy.

AGRONOMY UPDATE – NORTH Sam Patchett and his growers weren’t able to kick-start their fieldwork until the end of April, leaving them more than stretched going into mid-May. and wanting to minimise trafficking on heavy soils acutely vulnerable to damage. Our spring barleys will get the rest of their nitrogen as soon as we can see the tramlines and Nutriphyte PGA and trace elements at 2–3 leaves to help them make the very most of their difficult start. With BYDV such a risk for later sowings, we’ll be including an insecticide in the spray too.

We’re every bit as stretched as we feared we’d be this season. With the weather only allowing us back onto most land in the last week of April, spring drilling, top dressing, wheat T1s, OSR spraying and weed tidyingup have all come at once. We’ve got around 90 per cent of our spring barley in the ground, together with all our spring oats and the vast majority of our beans and linseed. We achieved some decent seedbeds on the lighter land, but our heavy soils were very wet underneath. So, with patience finally running out for many, drilling conditions here have been far from ideal. To make-up for the late start we raised cereal seed rates as much as we could. And, although we prioritised seedbed nitrogen, it wasn’t always practicable what with all the other urgent calls on our time

Disease control Only around half our winter wheats actually got their T0s and most had their T1s rather later than we wanted. So, with active septoria loving the warmth and continued showers, and the lack of T0s all too apparent in Leaf 4 and 5 infection levels, the last thing we’ll be doing is stinting on our T2s. Decent rates of SDHI are a

priority – solatenol for varieties with greater rust susceptibility and fluxapyroxad otherwise – supported by robust triazoles and multi-sites. Thankfully, we’ve yet to see much in the way of rust infections. However, we know how rapidly they can develop and around 75 per cent of the varieties we’re managing have a relatively high rust risk. One thing we’re certainly learning about this season is what’s possible practically – rather than just in theory – with tank-mixing! We’ve also really come to appreciate the value of liquid fertilisation; both in being able to travel with self-propelled sprayers where it was impossible with tractors and spreaders, and in the much quicker crop responses it has given. Another thing we’ve learnt this spring is the value of fasterdeveloping OSR varieties. They’ve got away from late pigeonhammering far better than others and should give us more even flowering as a result. Which is just what we need as we play fieldwork catch-up, looking to a single mid-

flowering spray, wherever possible, to combat high sclerotinia and alternaria pressures as well as the continuing light leaf spot threat. Looking ahead – which is far from easy with all-hands to the immediate crop protection pump – we simply must minimise the knockon effects of this season on next. In particular, soil structural issues and the likelihood of a far-from-early harvest.

Later drilling Later drilling in our battle against grass weeds takes the pressure off as far as wheat is concerned. But we’ll need to think hard about our OSR establishment; especially with everyone set to bale as much straw (or should I say gold dust) as they can and sub-soiling a clear priority. We’ll definitely be prioritising the faster-developing as well as vigorous hybrids best able to deal with later sowing.

AGRONOMY UPDATE – WEST

A novel sequential approach to protect yields in OSR in the run-up to harvest could help boost returns, says Agrovista agronomist Esme Shephard. Winter crops are looking very variable across the South West. However, in my area of Wiltshire they are looking very well, thanks to our mainly freedraining chalk soils that have enabled growers to maintain timely spray and fertiliser applications. Oilseed rape crops in particular have grown away and look nice and even. Provided we continue to get plenty of sunshine to fill pods, they could provide some decent margins. To help protect that potential, growers should consider applying a pod sealant Pod-Stik spray over the next few days to prevent pod shatter in the run-up to harvest. High seed losses can occur as pods become more brittle in unprotected crops during periods of high winds and/or heavy rain. Importantly, extensive damage can also occur when running through crops with pre-harvest glyphosate. Up to a third of seed can be shed between sprayer wheelings when running through the crop at this time.

The optimum time to apply Pod-Stik is around eight weeks before harvest, when pods are green and bendy and you can start to see seeds bulging against the pod wall. The product will provide 12 weeks’ protection after application, so it can be used any time from now on. Growers can then apply glyphosate with Companion Gold around a fortnight ahead of the expected harvest date to even up crop ripening and desiccation, safe in the knowledge that crops won’t be damaged in the process.

Timing The correct timing for the glyphosate application can be determined by picking 20 pods from the main raceme of plants in a representative part of the field. If at least two-thirds of seeds in each of 15 picked pods are changing green to brown, then the earliest stage for spraying has been reached. Check other areas of field, and spray within four to seven days.

Spring barley growers in the South West still have time to use a PGR.

Companion Gold is the only adjuvant with on-label recommendation for use with glyphosate and with full CRD evaluation. This multi-function adjuvant has a tallow amine-free formulation offering class-leading drift reduction, thanks to its blend of polymers. It contains pH buffers and water conditioners to maximise efficacy, as well as antifoam agents to aid sprayer filling and surfactants to optimise plant coverage. It also provides additional pod sealant activity.

Spring crops Spring crops look more variable in this area. However, many are making up for lost time, although that does mean an abundance of lush growth in some fields, increasing the need for growth regulation. Spring wheat crops should have been treated by now, but spring barley growers still have time. I’ll be recommending Vivax (chlormequat chloride + ethephon) at up to 1.2-litres/ha. This can be used to

before the flag leaf ligule is just visible, so between T1–T2 is the perfect time. I’ll be checking spring wheat crops over the next week or two for gout fly eggs. These white, cigar-shaped objects are laid singly on the upper side of leaves. Treat with a pyrethroid before larvae invade plants; they can be more damaging in shy-tillering spring cereals. Another pest to watch out for is black bean aphid in winter and spring beans and peas. Heavy infestations can damage plants, and these should be sprayed with Aphox (pirimicarb) when 10 per cent of plants are colonised. These aphids increase in warm dry conditions.

Less is more when the right drill is used Whether the objective is cutting establishment costs, reducing weed burden or improving soil condition, zero-till planting offers benefits, claims pioneer Weaving which celebrates 20 years supplying no-till drills this year. David Williams visited satisfied customers. Worcestershire-based Weaving Machinery manufactures a wide range of cultivators and drills, with options to suit most farm sizes and soil types. It also imports and distributes grassland machinery, fertiliser spreaders, sprayers and hedge-cutters and sundry equipment including cement mixers and sweepers. The company was founded in 1983 by Edward Weaving and began importing the Americanmade Krause Drill in 1998. This uses vertical discs to create a slit direct into stubbles or grassland, into which the following disc coulters drop seed. Without ploughing or cultivation the root network from previous crops remains intact and worm populations thrive, increasing biological activity and improving soil structure and drainage. Weaving went on to develop its own BigDisc Drill with an enhanced double disc coulter design, and by 2015 the company had announced

its revolutionary GD Drill, developed in conjunction with Lincolnshire farmer Tony Gent. The patented GD angled coulter is designed for zero-tillage establishment but can also work within conventional cultivation regimes when required. Originally available only in a 6m version, demand was such that the

Weaving factory had to be rapidly extended to cope, and a waiting list remains despite the increased capacity. Cereals 2018 will see a larger 8m model added, responding to customer demand.

Bucks farm Buckinghamshire farmer Clive Pullin bought a Weaving Krause 4m drill 15 years ago and believes firmly in zero-tillage establishment to reduce costs. “Our soil quality is fairly poor and we are never going to achieve continued over...

Clive Pullin drilled Crusoe wheat at 185kg/ha to compensate for late drilling, then it was grazed by sheep to thin.

The Weaving Krause zero-till disc drill was bought in 2003 to reduce establishment costs and improve soil structure.

The Weaving Krause's vertical discs work well in the dry, but can hair-pin longer straw if it’s damp, creating a seal at the base of the slit, said Clive.

some of the fantastic yields one hears quoted at times,” he said. “But we have to make a living so, if we can’t add extra profit at the top of the margin, then the best solution is cutting costs from the bottom, improving our margin that way.” Clive’s farm is adjacent to Silverstone race circuit and comprises owned and rented land; 640ha belonging to the family, 190 rented and 65 farmed on other arrangements. Arable crops account for approximately 565ha and 200– 245ha are down to grass and maize to feed a dairy herd comprising 300 zero-grazed Friesian-Holstein cattle,

and 1,200 sheep; mule ewes crossed with Suffolk or South Down rams. Grassland is also used for camping, adding a lucrative additional enterprise for the farm, especially during the British Grand Prix. Some of Clive’s rented grazing land is campsites and car parks belonging to the circuit, and is unavailable for several weeks each year when major motoring events take place. The busy farm moved to robotic milking five years ago but still requires eight full-time employees working with Clive. “Many farms in the area gave up their dairy cattle 10 years or more ago, but our soils are difficult,” he explained. “We have to live on them, care for them and love them to get best results and I anticipated that if we lost the cattle our arable crops would suffer through loss of soil condition due to lack of manure. So we kept the cattle but moved to robot milkers saving labour and increasing our milk yields.” The cattle are bedded on straw, which Clive acknowledges is costly. “But I wouldn’t want to lie on concrete all day and I don’t see why they should. We have to be profitable but I also need to be happy with the way we achieve our profits.”

“I spend nothing if I can get away with it,” said Clive, pointing out a bare area near a gateway in a recently drilled crop of wheat. The drill’s vertical discs had penetrated the compacted ground but the slits hadn’t closed. “We could have sub-soiled to relieve the compaction but the cost wouldn’t have been justified,” he said. “This is where the new GD Drill would be a benefit as the angled disc slits would be closed by the following tyres.”

Soil care In 1987, having left the family farm, Clive worked in Australia for several years where he was introduced to controlled traffic farming (CTF), and soil care for improved moisture retention and structure. Offset cropping was widely practised where the space between the previous year’s crop rows was drilled, using remaining roots to maintain soil structure and hold moisture.” Clive returned to the family farm in 1995, and big diesel price increases caused him to worry about time and fuel costs needed to establish crops. But in 2004, when

a wet winter meant little land had been drilled and spring linseed was a profitable option, he felt it was time to change cultivation regimes. “Last year’s roots are this year’s drainage,” he explained, “so zero-tillage and direct-drilling were considered potential solutions.” Several drills were investigated but those with coulters in sections were discounted for their inability to cope with ground undulations and tramlines. “They were either bulldozing or skimming the surface,” he said, “but when we looked at the Weaving Krause drill the individualmounted sprung disc coulters continued over...

impressed as they followed ground contours accurately.”

Zero-till transition Crops include a five-year grass ley then two wheats, barley, oilseed rape, wheat and then maize, and the zero-till drill is used for all crops except maize for which land preparation includes ploughing then drilling with a homemade power harrow/drill combination. “I hate ploughing,” said Clive, “and our soils which are clay over clay are so difficult that we can only pull 6f behind our 360hp tractor. It damages the soil structure we have worked to build up, but ploughing then power harrowing levels the land so there is some benefit.” For the soils to become suitable for zero-till drilling, it has been a gradual process. In early years an elderly Massey Ferguson Araplow curved subsoiler loosened subsoil without disturbing the surface before drilling. “The first year we drilled 160ha of spring linseed and that autumn, following the linseed we had a good tilth and autumn-planted wheat. As soils became more friable we introduced the Weaving and the technique worked. “It wasn’t just about the drill,” he added. “We invested in flotation tyres

for every trailed implement from trailers to manure spreaders and slurry tankers. Super-single tyres are totally banned and now we only use the Araplow where there is significant traffic damage, but otherwise the Weaving drill works direct into grass, and stubbles which have only had a pass with a straw rake. “An issue with the Krause drill’s vertical disc design was that waterlogging of the seed slit could occur when drilling direct into wet straw stubble, making it less suitable later in the season. “In the dry the discs cut through brittle straw easily but wet, soft straw can hairpin and become pressed into the base of the slit creating a gutter. The seed sits in trapped water and rots so, in 2008 we bought a second direct drill with tines for wetter conditions, allowing us to direct drill later in the autumn. This had the disadvantage of increased soil disturbance but our soil structure is so much better now across the farm we make better use of available weather windows for the Weaving drill, and will dispose of the direct tine drill this year,” he added.

Stubbles grazed Stubbles are usually grazed after harvest, then raked once, although

This grass is in its second year and was drilled by the Weaving Krause. Fertiliser has been slurry from the AD plant and chicken manure, and it was cut five times last year. Clive commented that after drilling there was a high black-grass population but repeat cutting for zero-grazing exhausts the weed and now little remains. 59283

earlier in the transition toward zero-till drilling up to three rake passes were needed to create stale seedbeds, two of which were sprayed off for black-grass control. Now the grass weed isn’t considered a problem and Clive said most is from bought-in straw and only flourishes in the strips from the tine drill. The disc drill establishes crops direct into stubbles including after maize and grass, the five-year leys creating a challenge as they are usually packed tight after livestock grazing and harvesting traffic. The Weaving drill is popular with neighbouring farms and Clive charges £56/ha for contract drilling, and applies the same notional cost to his own crop establishment. He contrasts this with ploughing and power harrowing at £111/ha with drilling and rolling an additional cost. “Often we get away without rolling after the disc-drill although sometimes we do it just to ensure the slits are closed. It’s a fast and cheap operation and we can afford to roll as we save at least 70 per cent through direct drilling. Additional benefits include better soil structure providing improved support for field traffic which means land is available for a month more each year for slurry application, both from the dairy unit and a nearby AD plant from which the farm receives the free fertiliser. Wheat sprays include preemergence and Roundup after drilling and the crop is sheep grazed which helps provide effective weed control. Undressed barley is drilled then grazed, with a fungicide applied later. Nutrients are from slurry applied and average barley yield is 7.9t/ha, with most used for feed and some traded for straw. We receive excellent backup from Weaving and the team there really knows the products well,” commented Clive. “We have

ordered spare parts up to 7pm, and had them delivered by 9am the next day which is excellent. We deal mainly with Carl Humphries, and other Weaving machinery we have on the farm includes chain harrows, hay machinery, a feeder wagon, a concrete mixer and we also buy spare parts such as PTO shafts as the service is so efficient.”

Angled discs attractive Clive said the Weaving Krause drill has proved very reliable, its only design weakness being the marker arm wheels which have detached occasionally. Moving to zero-till crop establishment is achieving yields equivalent to those gained by full inversion cultivation, and costs have reduced dramatically. The weed burden has reduced saving herbicide costs and improved soil structure means better use can be made of free fertiliser available from the AD plant, through a longer working season. “The design is good but Weaving’s newer GD Drill seems to solve the only establishment issue we have experienced, with its angled discs replacing the Krause vertical discs. We are taking on extra land in the near future and are ready to upgrade to the GD Drill for its extra capacity, and improved disc design guaranteeing better establishment through improved seed to soil contact and slit sealing,” he added. “For the future we have no doubts in our mind regarding soil improvements through zero-tillage. An example is some wheat stubble, ploughed recently in preparation for maize after nine years of zerotillage. It’s ‘horrible’ grade 4 clay, surrounded by woodland and has grown cereals and two, three-year grass leys since we last ploughed it. The field ploughed up beautifully, with soil so friable it needed rolling before drilling.” continued over...

Worcs farm chooses zero-till for weed control and timeliness ...from previous page

Alex Wylie is a more recent convert to zero-till crop establishment. With his father he farms 355ha near Droitwich, Worcestershire, 325 of which is arable with the other 30 rented out for sheep grazing. Cropping is winter wheat, winter beans, spring linseed and spring wheat, grown on medium loam and clay loam soils. Previously a min-till cultivations regime was practised for many years, before the farm changed to a cultivator drill capable of one-pass seedbed preparation and drilling. “I could see advantages in ultralow disturbance crop establishment,” explained Alex, “and we purchased a direct drill in around 2001, but poor germination due to the slots not closing properly forced us to cultivate ahead of the drill to create loose soil to fill them. We compromised later with the one-pass cultivator drill.” Alex’s reasons for investigating reduced tillage were to improve timeliness, reduce fuel costs, put fewer working hours on the tractors and save money spent on wearing metal, but when black-grass started appearing in the crops 14 years

later, he looked again at zero-tillage options. “All the drills we looked at seemed well made and we attended demonstrations of those we considered most suitable,” he explained. “However, none offered the effective seeding we wanted. Then we heard about Weaving’s GD Drill and liked the design concept, spoke to a Warwickshire farmer using one and watched it drilling wheat into oilseed rape stubble. It performed well, so we travelled to see wheat established by a similar machine in Worcestershire which looked very good, and received positive reports from other users. The land was similar to ours so we were confident we could obtain similar results.”

Superb emergence A 6m drill was ordered in 2015 and results have been excellent. “The disc angle and following press wheel guarantees great seed-to-soil contact and the slit is fully closed. Seed germination is fantastic and we grew a lot of spring crops last year, all drilled into very dry soils but not one field had anything less than full establishment,” he said.

Worcestershire farmer Alex Wylie bought his first Weaving GD Drill in 2015, and updated to the latest version in January this year. A Magnum 310 pulls it, with power to spare on flatter land but with the extra grunt needed for slopes.

p Weaving’s angled disc coulters were the feature which first attracted Alex, ensuring seed was placed at the required depth, with good seed-to-soil contact and protected from weather and pests. u Seeding depth control is excellent, but it’s easy to place seed too deep, said Alex, pictured checking linseed drilled into a stale seedbed of wheat stubble.

All the straw is chopped and stubbles receive a pass by a Weaving 8m straw rake. Areas with severe compaction are sub-soiled, but only where it is essential. The GD Drill’s angled discs establish the crop direct into the stubbles and Alex explained that drainage, through the largely undisturbed soil, is improved compared with the previous drill which created a layer of loose tilth. Timeliness of drilling and subsequent operations has improved each year as improving soil structure has made it more supportive. Asked whether yields have improved or declined since moving to zero-till crop establishment, Alex said it is hard to say as weather varies year to year which always has an effect. “What I can say is that yields didn’t reduce, but soil organic matter has increased and worm activity has too. It’s amazing how quickly they multiply when we stop moving the soil,” he added. The GD Drill has been used for all crops including linseed and the range of seed sizes has caused no problems.

Alex said his objective of reducing tractor hours worked has been totally successful. The fleet includes a Case IH Magnum 310 (345hp max) and two Maxxum 170s. “We use the Magnum on the GD Drill,” he said, “as it’s heavy, so pulling up some of our banks needs that tractor power and weight. On the flat it’s a lot easier and we could easily manage with 250hp.” Alex farms with one full-time employee and his father helps out during busy periods. “Having moved to zero-till, we save an enormous number of man-hours,” he said. “We’re not running around to get cultivating done on time and not wasting fuel doing it. continued over...

Our diesel consumption is a third of what it was previously. “We are more in control of the whole drilling process because we don’t have to wait for the cultivator before planting, and we can drill much later in the autumn as there isn’t the complication of loose, wet soil.” Average drilling rate is approximately 4.5ha/hr, at a drilling speed of approximately 9–10kph, explained Alex. Performance is superb. “It’s one of the easiest drills I have ever calibrated,” he continued. “The control box is straightforward, easy to set-up and use. “The independent coulters precisely follow undulating ground including wheelings and dips while maintaining even seed depth. Depth control is simple and effective. We have fields with light and heavier soil areas but emergence is still very even making it easy to look after the growing crop, and from one end of the farm which is lighter soil, to the other which is heavier, we don’t need to alter the settings.” Alex emphasised his choice of drill was made totally based on suitability for his farm and its ability to achieve his objectives, and the fact that Weaving is based in the same county had little influence. “When we bought the first GD Drill, Weaving specialists came out to get us going and spent half a day helping us select suitable settings for best performance,” he said. “In fact the most important setting to get right is where to set the depth control pin as it’s easy to place the seed deeper than intended and best checked using a trowel.”

from thorns on the headlands but the new drill’s kevlar-lined tyres avoid this,” he explained. One issue, which Alex admits could affect any drill, is that occasionally wet working conditions cause previous crop residue to stick to the press tyres, an issue which has occurred rarely and only in areas of headland shade.

Great drill and back-up Alex admits that moving to a zerotillage regime is daunting at first. “Although we looked at other people’s crops it was nail biting putting seed in the ground with no real prior preparation. We had considered risks including disease carryover and waterlogging because the soil hadn’t been moved, but actually neither proved an issue and our decision has proved successful. We save fuel and working hours, field operations are more timely, tractor wear and tear is reduced, we use less wearing metal and are achieving yields at least as good as before and noticing definite soil structure improvements. Weaving is a good firm to deal with, very, very helpful and the team there doesn’t just sell you a drill and leave you to get on with it. Mike Lane the service manager, and Simon and Edward Weaving have all proved extremely helpful and do all they can to assist.” ■

Weaving launched a new version of the GD Drill last year, with some small improvements and when Alex enquired about updating he was pleasantly surprised by the reasonable cost to change. The new drill was ordered, and delivered in January this year, and so far has established approximately 80ha of crops. “The previous drill’s RDS control box was good, but the latest version has additional features, some of which will benefit us,” he said. “Also, the press wheels suffered punctures previously

When Alex bought his first GD Drill he specified an optional slug pellet applicator which metered pellets into the seed tubes, to be placed in the seed slit. “We tried it and although the system worked perfectly well we found the pellets work better on the surface. If anything, distributing pellets down with the seeds attracts the slugs to the seeds, so this wasn’t used for long,” he explained. The pellet applicator was transferred to the new drill, but might be used to meter oilseed rape or cover crop seeds in the future.

Rural Advice

These are changing times Carter Jonas partner Mark Russell returns to the pages of Farmers Guide with, inevitably, some thoughts on Brexit and some of the changes being seen in the the land market. The consultation period for the Government’s ‘Health and Harmony: the future for food, farming and the environment in a Green Brexit’ has completed with more than 44,000 responses. While we have been told that this is just the start of the conversation – as uncertainty still remains around the type of Brexit the Government is pursuing – of particular concern is that, of these

responses, it is reported that the vast majority have been received from single-issue pressure groups; organisations with a keen interest in environmental protection rather than commercial farming. We can only hope that Michael Gove will not ignore the opinions and collective expertise of trade bodies such as the CLA, NFU and TFA. Defra must look to support agricultural productivity,

Carter Jonas has noticed a widening gap between those parcels of land that are sought after and those that are less so.

self-sufficiency and maintain rural communities.

Which direction? It is clear that there are a range of possible paths for the UK to take for the future of farming, and because of this it feels as though the land market is holding a collective breath so to speak, with the average values showing a marginal fall over the last 12 months. However, we have noticed a widening gap between those parcels that are sought after (£11,000–£16,000/acre) and those less so (£7,000–£8,750/acre). Land of a certain size with long-term development potential, sporting rights etc, continues to attract competitive bids. If there is no roll over or a non-agricultural buyer in an area and the lot size is too large for neighbours to swallow up, then values can still be limited. There is some speculation that the two tier market will splinter, post Brexit, into a three tier market influenced by subsidies and capping, but I’m not convinced, as we continue to see a number of investors with capital chasing land, and cash buyers

becoming ever more particular. At Carter Jonas we continue to work with our clients to plan for reduced reliance on subsidies and to find ways of making their businesses more resilient. With that in mind, diversification is becoming an ever more important theme, and the options are numerous and sometimes complex. Again this is an area where we specialise; whether it’s holiday cottages, barn conversions, wedding venues or visitor attractions. Our national teams work alongside clients to identify revenue generation opportunities.

Show time As the show season beckons, including national events such as Cereals and the Game Fair, as well as local county shows (many of which we sponsor), we look forward to discussing these matters and the many opportunities facing the rural community.

Wide rolls make sense for progressive farming business A Cambridgeshire-based agribusiness has taken delivery of the first set of Dal-Bo 24.3m rolls supplied in the UK. David Williams reports. P.X. Farms Ltd, based at Scotland Farm, Dry Drayton, Cambs, farms a mix of owned, rented and contractfarmed land in Cambridgeshire and Lincolnshire. Cropping is on three main soil types; heavy Hanslope Series and Wickham 2 (medium) clays and Fen Silt. Crops include winter and spring wheats, winter and spring barleys, spring peas, winter beans, linseed, mustard, sugar beet and potatoes - grown for the first time this year in co-operation with an established producer. As well as the arable farming business, PX Farms specialises in grain storage, with up to 84,000t capacity at the Dry Drayton farm headquarters for the company’s own crops and as contract storage for other farming businesses. Specialist drying and cleaning equipment allows preparation to a particular specification and a fleet of eleven 44t lorries is operated, for efficient transport to markets including end users. “Part of our storage service is the capability to prepare out-ofspecification produce for the intended market and deliver it direct, achieving

premium returns for growers,” explained managing director James Peck. “Our grain ‘hospital’ removes admix and ergot and can improve quality including colour and bushel weights. Being able to collect from the farm, treat the crop and deliver it means we provide a full, simple and efficient service.”

CTF pioneer The farm practises controlled traffic farming (CTF), ensuring all vehicles share the same wheel tracks during field work, year after year. Benefits include improved soil health and structure, partly through reduced compaction and the ability to carry out timely field spraying and spreading applications as the long-established tramlines provide improved load-bearing capability even when wet. “We moved to CTF over two years from 2010, after I studied the subject as part of my Nuffield Scholarship,” explained James. “By 2012 we were fully equipped so that all machinery was compatible with the 36m tramlines.” The machinery fleet includes 3

and 6m subsoilers, a 12m precision cultivator, and a 12m heavy cultivator. The self-propelled sprayer has a 36m boom and the two Claas Lexion combines both have 12m headers. Cereals are established with two Horsch drills; a 12m Sprinter and a 6m Pronto KR6 power harrow/ drill combination. Most land is deep cultivated with one or two passes and rotational subsoiling is practised. Sugar beet land receives a pass with the Dal-Bo RolloMaximum 12m precision seedbed cultivator before drilling by a 6m sugar beet drill, due for updating to a 12m in the near future. Black-grass has declined in recent years partly due to a wider range of crops grown in an extended rotation. “Whereas black-grass used to be a primary consideration whenever we did anything, now it is not such a threat,” said James. “It’s always there

but manageable.” Slugs have also declined, mainly because of the broad rotation but also because oilseed rape is no longer grown, and James said approximately five per cent of the quantity of slug pellets are needed now in a typical year.

Rolling benefits When James first took over running the farm from his father, his first significant purchase was a set of 12m rolls. “That was in 1998 and everyone commented they were far too big and quite ridiculous. But they performed well for many years, the size became the norm, and we consider rolls an important part of our crop establishment routine. “The main reason we roll is to ensure good seed to soil contact through adequate consolidation,” he explained. “Another consideration is that if land isn’t rolled and dries out large cracks appear and soil lower down dries out and the seed dies off. A few years ago we had cracks in our sugar beet land so wide that mice used them to get to the seed, so where possible we roll almost all our crops after drilling.” Other benefits include improved tillering in the spring if the weather allows rolling of late-drilled winter crops, and the level surface and reduced numbers of clods improves efficacy of chemicals. “We could achieve a more level seedbed by increasing the number of cultivation passes,” pointed out James, “but continued over...

An effective weight transfer system ensures even consolidation across the working width.

...from previous page

cultivating more doesn’t guarantee a result even though it takes much longer and costs more, whereas rolling always has benefits.” With more land taken on in recent years and the farm’s average tractor size and power increasing, James considered moving to a set of wider rolls, to make better use of the tractors available and to fit in precisely with the CTF system. When the 12m rolls were bought the biggest tractor on the farm was 200hp but two 400hp Fendt 939s are

available now with the capability to pull larger sets of rolls more quickly.

Road and field “We looked at two alternatives,” said James, “including the Dal-Bo MegaRoll. Some of our land involves road journeys up to 45 miles and it was important to us that the rolls we chose not only perform well in the field but also tow safely on the road at the higher speeds our tractors are capable of.” Both rolls were borrowed on demonstration last year and the

simple Dal-Bo folding design and high quality running gear immediately appealed. Twin commercial specification axles and high quality Michelin 600/50-22.5 tyres were identified as preferable to those of the other rolls which still offered high-speed but lacked the full commercial specification. Adjustment from the cab allows tyre pressures to be optimised for high-speed road transport and reduced for the field. The lights fitted are clear and easily seen by other road users. “Running our fleet of lorries has made us

more aware of the need to check specification of components such as the wheels and brakes, and we have everything regularly tested,” explained James. “The MegaRolls fold to under 3m for transport and tow like a lorry trailer. Being so wide we have to unfold them in the field, so the four large tyres are an advantage carrying the weight on soft ground until weight is transferred to the rollers. They unfold in under seven minutes and tyre pressures are reduced from the cab for maximum flotation.

Owner James Peck said a big attraction of the Dal-Bo rolls was the transport arrangement. Twin commercial axles and four large flotation tyres ensure the rolls tow like a lorry trailer. Air brakes are effective on the road and in the field.

A Cat 4 hitch was specified. “We run a fleet of 44t articulated lorries as part of our grain storage business so are very aware of the need to make sure wheels, tyres and brakes are all up to standard,” he said. “We go to great lengths to make our operation as safe as possible and uprating the hitch means there is no drawbar play and reduces risk of failure.”

“When we bought our Dal-Bo seedbed cultivator four years ago, we were impressed by the company’s efforts to make sure we got what we needed and after we took delivery the Dal-Bo team was interested in its performance. Although these wide MegaRolls are new to the UK, we are confident that if they aren’t satisfactory the company will take them back without question which gives us confidence. They want to be involved, welcoming our feedback and we are more than happy to work with companies in this way,” he added.

Even consolidation The wide roll’s 9 sections of 55cm ductile rings are in a Cambridge/ breaker combination and Dal-

Bo’s exclusive hydraulic pressure compensation system transfers weight from the centre larger rolls to the lighter outer rolls ensuring even consolidation across the full width. “That is important,” explained Dal-Bo UK sales manager Steve Atkin. “If pressure is uneven the surface won’t be level and, more importantly, crop emergence will be uneven. Even with the weight transfer, every section moves independently following ground contours accurately so uneven or undulating surfaces are followed accurately for consistent consolidation.”

tractor not only has plenty of power; the extra weight and larger tyres mean there’s no shortage of grip resulting in less surface disturbance. We have some slopes which make the tractor grunt a bit with the weight behind, so I would say a 400hp tractor is an ideal match.” Results since delivery in midspring have been good so far and James expects the rolls to be used extensively across all the sites farmed. The increased cropping area means the farm fleet has to be capable of high work rates when weather windows allow and the new rolls are ideal. “Our range of soil

types helps spread our workload and running high output machinery helps us make the most of optimum opportunities for field work,” he added. “Currently our land is mainly medium to heavy but we are keen to take on some lighter land too, helping us make even better use of our fleet capacity. “Soil to seed contact is critical,” concluded James, “and a level surface with fewer clods ensures we get maximum benefit from chemical applications. Using the Dal-Bo 24m MegaRolls we can cover up to 200ha per day and guarantee improved crops.” ■

Ideal power match James said using the 400hp Fendt tractors allows high work rates with minimum ground damage. “We had a 240hp tractor on the rolls when we trialed them on demonstration,” he explained, “and although the tractor coped it lacked traction, so wheelings were clearly visible. The 24m rolls are heavy but the bigger

UK tour celebrates brand’s 60 years

It is 60 years since Massey Harris of Canada and Harry Ferguson Ltd got together to create Massey Ferguson and the Diamond anniversary has been celebrated with a brand tour around the UK at which customers and dealers can inspect the latest range of machines. David Williams reports. The 2018 Diamond Roadshow included eight locations from Somerset to Edinburgh during March and April and, along with special Diamond edition commemorative tractors, highlights included the new round baler range, plus mowers, rakes and tedders available for the current season. Farmers Guide attended one of the southern-most events at the South of England Showground near Ardingly, Sussex in mid-April. Machinery from across Massey Ferguson’s range was displayed, including combine harvesters, tractors and large square balers but attracting particular interest was the new grass harvest machinery line-up including mowers, rakes and tedders.

Round balers are new for this season as a result of Agco purchasing Lely’s forage division last year. Mac Simpson (pictured) moved from Lely and is now Massey Ferguson harvesting products area sales manager for the south. “We have seen a very positive

Exciting range offered

The latest addition to the Global Series tractor line-up was creating interest shortly after its launch at the Techagro show in the Czech Republic. The 100hp 5710 and 110hp 5711 4-cyl models are both now available with Dyna-4 16x16 semi-powershift transmission as an option over the standard 12x12 gearbox. Brake to neutral is included in the upgrade which disconnects drive when the brake pedal is pressed - ideal for loader work, and cab suspension improves the ride. Dyna-4 is expected to be popular with users for its greater flexibility and productivity benefits which have already proved themselves on the smaller 5700 3-cyl models, pictured.

Massey Ferguson national sales manager William Judge was delighted with the Diamond Roadshow’s success. “We hadn’t had a face-to-face customer event for several years and with our larger machinery portfolio there was plenty of new product to show,” he explained. “This sort of event gives us a much better indication of what is happening in the industry than a general show and current customers gave us good feedback regarding the market. If we had set ourselves targets for the number of people we needed to attend to make it a success then we would have exceeded it by at least 50 per cent. Dealers worked hard making sure new and existing customers knew

the Roadshow was in their areas and enjoyed great support. A lot of effort and time went into organising and running the events and the customer enthusiasm and number of enquiries made it very worthwhile.” Asked which products generated most interest William said the larger 8700-series tractors surprised many with their comfortable, well-equipped cabs and high specification. “When customers got in the cabs they were really impressed as historically we haven’t been known for higherhorsepower tractors,” he added. “Global Series tractors offer efficiency and productivity in a cost-effective package for a wide range of potential users and are enjoying strong

reaction from dealers and customers with many orders placed for this season,” he said. The RB round baler range includes fixed and variable models starting with the fixed RB1125F model which has a 2.0m pick-up,

makes 1.25m diameter bales and has no chopper or drop floor. The RB2125F is available with either a 2.0m or 2.25m pick-up, and 13 or 17 knives while a Pro version, the RB2125FPR, has 25 knives. Variable chamber models have four wide belts to minimise losses and provide positive rotation and models include the RB4160V which makes bales from 0.9–1.6m diameter and the RB4180V makes bales from 0.9–1.8m diameter. Three Xtracut chopper options include 13, 17 or 25 knives. Hydroflexcontrol 2-stage antiblocking includes a flexing floor to allow lumps to pass through as well as the ability to lower the floor and knife banks hydraulically from the cab. Belt balers have Isobus control and there are two screen options; E-link basic or E-link Pro. Both allow up to 20 field counts.

demand, and the latest 5711 Dyna-4 proved particularly attractive. Our team spent a lot of time answering questions about the new Ideal combine which wasn’t on show but generated interest in the more arable areas, and our established line-up was as popular as ever at all the events. Obviously round balers in Massey Ferguson colours and available through all our dealers were also greeted with great enthusiasm.”

Hammonds Farms, also trading as Horsley Haylage is based near Guildford and as well as farming it also offers a contracting service, mainly spraying and combine harvesting and makes and supplies horse hay and haylage. Grass is grown for hay and haylage and arable crops are grown on owned and contract-farmed land. Paul Simmonds is pictured with children Sophie and James and says the Massey Ferguson 7618VT operated by the farm is excellent and the CVT transmission makes tasks such as mowing and baling More over page... significantly easier.

RJ Padfield farms at Mark Cross, near Crowborough, Sussex. The mixed farm grows cereals and livestock include sheep, beef cattle, pigs and poultry. A farm shop incorporating a butcher is owned and owner Richard Padfield said meat is also sold through farmers markets with demand high for good quality. “People want to know where their food comes from,” he explained. Four Massey Fergusons are owned; the newest a 5612 supplied by local dealer Yeowart Agricultural. “Our oldest is a 50-year-old MF35, supplied new to my grandfather,” added Richard. “We have come to see the latest products from Massey Ferguson including the Global Series. For our livestock use we don’t need all the latest electronics. As long as the tractor is reliable that is the main concern. We buy other machinery from the dealer too and the Massey Ferguson grassland machinery is especially interesting, particularly the round balers which look well made. We need a good baler for haylage to feed sheep, silage for the cattle and hay which we use ourselves and sell.” Pictured with Richard are sons Charlie (left) and James (in the driver’s seat) with Theo Plasted checking out the passenger seat.

...More on previous page Agwood has two depots; Swingfield and Linton from which it looks after customers in Kent and East Sussex. “We have been offering Massey Ferguson products since 2006,” explained sales manager Steve Patfield. “The brand is seen as reliable, with good warranty back-up, high residual values and it is available with strong finance and service packages so all in all it’s a good range for us to be supplying to customers. “We have been Lely dealers for many years so are well used to the range’s reliability and we have also supplied Fella products previously and are delighted that both brands are now available through Massey Ferguson as it gives us a class-leading grassland range to offer, and it also allows us to introduce Massey Ferguson back-up and service to farms which haven’t previously used the brand,” he added. Most machinery supplied by Agwood is to arable and mixed farms including dairy and fruit producers as well as some vegetable growers, particularly in east Kent. The latest 3700 V-series narrow tractors are of particular interest to the dealer, for intensive vegetable production and F variants, designed for fruit farms will be popular for orchards and vineyards. “We are looking forward to the new Ideal combines as the high performance technology will appeal to larger arable farms in our area,” commented Steve. “We all feel the exclusive features and benefits will create considerable interest.” Pictured with the 5711 tractor are (l-r) Agwood sales manager Steve Patfield; area sales representative for north and west Kent, Trevor Sacree; product support manager Phil Grenham and area sales representative for Romney Marsh and East Sussex Marcus Glover. Pictured in the cab is Tony Heritage of Ken Heritage baling contractors based in Rye, Sussex. “I use Welger balers,” said Tony, “and I’m very pleased they are available through Massey Ferguson.

Articulated handler line-up extended JCB has added to its popular Telemaster range with a new, higher capacity flagship. David Williams test drove the new machine. Telemaster (TM) models have an articulated chassis with the cab and engine on the rear section and a telescopic boom at the front, combining benefits of an articulated wheeled loader and a telescopic handler. Advantages of the design include excellent manoeuvrability, reduced ground damage when working in sensitive areas, a large cab and excellent visibility. Disadvantages compared with a conventional telescopic handler include reduced lift height and reach due to the shorter boom, and a higher cab restricting use in low buildings. The range to date has included three models; the TM180, TM220

and the TM320 which is available in standard and higher performance S versions and accounts for most sales. Lift capacities are 1.8, 2.2 and 3.2t respectively. Almost all sold in the UK are to agricultural users.

Higher capacity “The trend is for larger farming units to require higher capacity,” explained JCB engineering manager responsible for the new TM420, Edward Owston. “But compact dimensions remain essential and we designed the new TM420 to carry 1t more but remain below 2.4m wide, and its cab is only 120mm higher than the TM320 despite the larger chassis, bigger boom and increased

Largest tyres available are 620/70R26. The articulated steering and good ground clearance was a benefit in slippery, wet clay.

diameter wheels.” Standard tyres are 480/80R26, replacing the TM320’s 460/70R24 and axles are upgraded including bigger hubs. The axles are borrowed from the 417 loading shovel but the engine and transmission are straight from the TM320S. TM320 updates in 2016 included a new cab, carried over to the TM420, having been developed for both models. The TM420 has a heavier duty chassis with large cast sections and no welding in stressed areas. Larger pins and bushes are fitted, and impregnated with graphite extending the lubrication interval to 500hrs, so greasing is required only

during routine servicing. Z-bar linkage is used on the TM320 but improved for the TM420, and a new attachment carriage has enclosed locking rams to protect against damage and corrosion when handling materials such as fertiliser and manure. The main hydraulic pump is the same as the TM320S at 160-litres/ min but added efficiency and much faster cycle times result from new oil circuits. Operating pressure is considerably higher so less effort is needed to lift a comparable load using the same hydraulic components. Regenerative hydraulics allow faster boom drop regardless of load and engine revs, improving efficiency of re-handling operations. Full height drop time (from fully extended to 5.4m) is approximately five seconds, even at low engine rpm, compared to the TM320 which takes around 10 seconds at full engine revs. Lift capacity on forks is up to 4.1t but the new hydraulics and z-bar design produce a tearout force of 7.2t, equivalent to a typical wheel loader of comparable size, and almost 1t above that of the TM320. This is particularly useful for heavy digging and handling manure from heaps; tasks for which TM models are ideal.

Comfortable and productive One of the main advantages of the articulated telescopic design is the spacious cab. Unlike telescopic handlers, which usually have the engine shoehorned in on one side of the full-length boom and the cab squeezed in on the other, the TM has plenty of room for a large cab across the full machine width. The raised cab gives a good view down the boom to the attachment and the open frame, articulated chassis means the operator can easily see both front wheels and any obstructions making it ideal for tight spaces. continued over...

Tearout force up to 7.20t is available. Lift capacity is 4.10t, maximum lift height is 5.45m and maximum reach is 3.05m.

t The cab is large and well laid out with superb visibility. The door and off-side window clip back and can be released from the seat by a handle. u The chassis and boom mount are strengthened over the TM320 with no welding in stressed areas.

Being able to lean to the left or right for an improved view in tight operating areas is a big advantage. At the rear a short stubby engine cover has an angled top for a good view behind but a rear view camera is also installed allowing vision right down to the rear hitch.

models include reduced maximum lift height and the higher cab position restricting operation in low buildings, compared with telescopic handlers, so there is clearly a strong case for both types. Edward said most TM machines are sold to livestock and mixed farms, while arable farms needing greater lift capacity, longer reach and higher stacking capability tend to select the Loadall telescopic handlers. Like the Loadalls, EN15000 overload protection is fitted and Edward explained that while the monitor is active constantly, JCB has develped a system whereby the cut-out works only when neccessary and is fully proportional so has little effect on normal operation. Payload figures quoted for the TM420 are all at ‘full steering lock’, when the rear counterweight is closest to the attachment load.

Articulated advantage

Test drive

Another big advantage for those working in soft ground such as loading sugar beet on field headlands or loading manure in the field is that the articulated steering reduces rutting. Improved ground clearance allows the TM machines to work in situations where a telehandler can’t. Tyre life is up to twice that of a conventional telescopic handler as there is hardly any wear due to scrubbing during yard manoeuvring. Productivity, particularly for tasks such as loading trailers or manure spreaders is also improved by the articulated steering, allowing the bucket or fork to be pivoted side to side just by altering the steering angle and without needing to shunt. Disadvantages of the TM

The test area was challenging. A manure heap in the corner of a sloping field with slippery Staffordshire clay below the wheels following a week of heavy rain meant there were deep water-filled ruts to negotiate while loading heavy, wet manure into the high sided trailer. Foot pedals are for the accelerator and brake while almost everything else is on the multi-function joystick, including direction changes through a rear mounted rocker switch. The main stick provides excellent control of lift and tip functions while the smaller thumboperated function buttons extend and retract the boom and operate the fork clamp. Visibility is excellent and the raised cab position makes it easy to judge the drop point when loading a trailer. The ground conditions provided little traction, making shunting and steering difficult, but a particular advantage of the TM420 was the ability to swivel the grab from side to side just by turning the steering wheel. This allowed the drop point to be accurately controlled for even loading without having to reposition the whole machine by shunting backwards and forwards, saving time and avoiding creating even more ruts.

...from previous page

Being able to reposition the bucket by pivoting the articulated steering makes loading easier, especially in slippery conditions.

Visibility proved excellent at all operating heights.

With extra care needed on the slippery sloping ground, the rapid boom drop was an advantage allowing it to be lowered quickly to a safe travel position as soon as it was clear of the trailer. Tearout force from the heap was impressive and full fork loads were lifted each time. The cab was comfortable and quiet, and although the visibility is good and allowed the operator to check there was nothing behind before reversing, the on-board rear camera view provided reassurance.

Verdict

A new Z-bar linkage has been developed for extra handling power and a new headstock has the hydraulic pins protected behind the frame.

A JCB Ecomax 4.8-litre, 4-cyl, 145hp engine is standard. A wide core radiator reduces blockages and a reversing fan is an option with auto and manual control.

JCB’s TM320 models have plenty of enthusiastic agricultural users and the new TM420 is a logical upgrade which will almost certainly take over as the biggest seller in the TM range. Prices are comparable with the TM320S at £89,596 and the new TM420 priced at £104,163. Deliveries start in the summer and dealers’ demonstration machines are likely to be busy. ■

JCB engineering manager in charge of the TM420’s development Edward Owston explained that the company’s range of TM articulated telescopic loaders complements the Loadall telescopic handler range with each offering advantages for specific applications.

Combine upgrade proves a cost-effective option The Deutz-Fahr C9206 TS combine is the largest and most recent addition to the German manufacturer’s portfolio.

The cost of ownership of a high value item such as a combine is key to justifying the initial purchase decision, but reliability, simplicity of design and dealer service and back-up are also critical factors to consider. Mixed farmer Ian Bowers of Manor Farm, Great Doddington near Wellingborough has recently gone through this thought process having signed up for a new Deutz-Fahr C9206 TS combine – the largest and most recent addition to the German manufacturer’s portfolio. As well as the 400ha arable enterprise at Manor Farm, which includes 240ha of winter wheat, 80ha of oilseed rape, 40ha of winter beans and 40ha of spring barley, the farm runs 650 North County mules. “It’s not every day that we need to make such a significant investment and, with the current uncertain economic climate, it makes the decision even harder,” says Mr Bowers. “But in line with our machinery

replacement policy, we were in the market for a new combine to replace our 10-year old Deutz-Fahr 5690,” he explains.

Upgrades “The new combine is very similar to the old one with a few upgrades,” he says. “We used it last year through harvest and a key benefit has to be the larger diameter front auger in the header and the peg roller positioned behind it, which both contribute to a faster and more even distribution of crop going into the drum. Losses out the back should be less as a result. “We accept that all machines go wrong at some point and it makes no difference on the original purchase price. What’s essential is to have

good back-up and through our local dealer Day & Coles, we’ve certainly been looked after. Downtime is unacceptable, especially during harvest when we only have a small window of opportunity to get the crop cut and in the shed.” Mr Bowers says arable farmers should not underestimate the value of straw. Many farmers just chop and spread it, using its nutritional value and organic matter to boost soil quality and nutrient reserve. “We like to have the option of what to do with straw, particularly because we are a mixed farming enterprise that uses straw for bedding and as a feed,” he says. “We have employed Deutz-Fahr combines for years and have always been impressed with the straw quality. It’s not all smashed up when it comes out of the back of the combine so we can use it ourselves for the livestock or we can sell it. “Having the choice of what to do with straw is also important because we don’t always want it in the rotation, for example, when ahead of oilseed rape. Wet straw doesn’t help the germination of oilseed rape seed that we direct drill, and we achieve better establishment and vigour in the absence of chopped straw. Our wheat yields have improved over the past few years to approximately 9t/ ha, while oilseed rape is generally over 4t/ha.” Mr Bowers is baling about 2,000,

4–5ft bales of which 300 are used by the business for sheep bedding and the remainder going locally to other livestock units. “We have two headers for our combine, a conventional option and one that has been converted for oilseed rape and winter beans,” he explains. “We sold our combine with its 6.3m header and bought the 2-year old demo with a new 7.2m header and kept our own 6.3m oilseed rape header. “Deutz-Fahr recommended the bigger header and although it has meant altering all the field entrances, our output should go up,” says Mr Bowers. “You can’t make up for a narrower header by increasing forward speed completely. We think we can now exploit the full potential of the combine.”

Auto-steer With the larger header on the new Deutz-Fahr C9206 TS, the auto-steer feature is essential, allowing the driver to concentrate on drum load, losses out the back and to optimise forward speed. Self-levelling; sideto-side and back-to-front – has also made a positive impact, particularly when harvesting on hillsides, says Mr Bowers. And a larger tank means he can get much further down the field before needing to empty. “We are not on a CTF system but we do like to keep to the same tramlines to minimise soil compaction,” he explains. “It means we can off-load at the headlands rather than the heavy tractors and trailers continued over...

driving all over the fields to get to the combine. The faster off-load auger is less important when on the move but when standing still on the headland it helps reduce downtime.” Wider tyres have also contributed towards reducing compaction and made for a better ride on the public highway.

More capacity Mr Bowers adds that in all but the highest yielding fields, a larger capacity combine means he can harvest about 75 per cent of the crop with one less tractor and trailer. With strategically placed storage facilities around the farm the maximum distance travelled from field to store is about one mile. “We have always liked the simplicity of the Deutz-Fahr

combine,” explains Mr Bowers. “This is the biggest one we have ever had, which inevitably means more electronics to deal with and understand, but it’s still belt drive with straw-walkers and sieves. Many of the tried and tested features are the same. The cab is virtually the same which is well laid out and colour coded for ease of use. Strategically placed cameras provide all round visibility – especially useful when reversing. “We know the Deutz-Fahr brand well and are happy to pay a small premium if necessary. The cost of ownership exercise is acceptable to us. The simplicity of the C9205 TS means it will retain a high residual value if we then choose to sell it, and by servicing it every year we should be able to keep it for 10 years with a relatively low cost of maintenance.”

Strike out with precision Striking out with the mower inevitably leads to little triangles left to cut. This wastes time, fuel and the dry matter of the crop. However the onTrak tractor GPS system for iPhone and iPad will ensure that operators strike out parallel every time. Agricision’s onTrak device uses a combined GPS receiver and lightbar operated via an iPad or iPhone to offer a cost-effective guidance solution. The onTrak system has no wires, making it ideal for swapping between machines and for use on ATVs. The onTrak device is positioned on the bonnet of the tractor which gives an improved experience for the operator, who therefore doesn’t need to focus on a screen inside the cab says Agricision. The onTrak app features adjustable implement width,

implement offsets, field storage, AB lines, boundaries, field size measurement and coverage recording. “For most farmers these features are all that is required,” says Adam Keene from Agricision. “We have not loaded the onTrak system with every feature imaginable as this just leads to confusion for the customer.” Jack Griffiths a dairy farmer from Gloucestershire who has operated an onTrak system for over a year says: “The onTrak connects straight up to my phone which I have with me all day and the app is very simple to use. We have various tractors and the onTrak can easily go onto any of them with no hassle.” The onTrak is available to buy from Agricision’s website and through a small network of dealers.

Searching for waterlogged soil solutions

The extremely wet weather experienced in the early spring this year caused concern to many growers across the country who were naturally eager to get out on the land to begin drilling. Here, Lincolnshire based farm machinery dealership Agri-Linc, discusses the issue of waterlogged soils, and takes an in-depth look at some drainage solutions available. Soils were particularly wet for many farmers earlier this year and field drainage may well have been a popular topic of conversation at the time. Delays in getting on the land will likely cause added problems later in the year and so it’s worth highlighting that, very often, surface soils can get waterlogged due to over-tilling, meaning soil at a lower depth is not so saturated.

ponding; these include mole ploughing, laying tile drainage or creating a surface layer of plants to utilise excess water. Of consideration is whether to continue to pursue short-term solutions to problems with land drainage, or make a move to taking some mid- to long-term actions that will help prevent such severe recurrences of surface water for the future.

Keeping on top of ditch cleaning will provide one way to deal with surface water.

The speed at which surface water will drain away is very dependent upon the quality of surface soil.

The speed at which surface water will drain away is very dependent upon the quality of surface soil and, if soils at surface level are tilled too much, they can form a “perched” water table, due to smaller soil pores forming an impenetrable layer. This is the reason permanent pastureland can absorb around 4–5mm/hr of rainfall, whereas bare, tilled ground rarely copes with this amount. There are land drainage techniques around to help deal with surface

drains is another answer. Where surface ponding is extreme, drilling holes to assist water penetration or digging soakaways is also recommended. Broadcasting seed by hand or ATV is also a good idea as this will establish a cover of plants that will ‘pump out’ water throughout the season and help ensure drainage of the soil profile, otherwise the soil is likely to remain with a high water capacity for the entire year. Keeping on top of ditch cleaning will provide one way to deal with surface water. If you regularly walk your ditches and clear out any blockages to ensure better drain outfalling, you should see the benefits during heavy rainfall. If there is no plan to go down the route of improving field drainage systems, some long-term options to also consider include planting grass “waterways” and adding more organic matter to the soil. Creating a tile drainage system may also help with field drainage if you already have a trench system in place. Trench systems can be useful for diverting water away and into drains or ditches, and replacing this system with lines of buried tiles or clay pipes can help speed up the drainage process. Excessive moisture in soil will seep into the tile drainage system and be deposited into ditches or local watercourses.

Mole drainage

Surface water solutions Mini moling can be a short-term solution for getting rid of surface water, with shallow settings around 12–15in recommended and without use of expanders. Alternatively, digging a narrow ditch or ploughing one single furrow to allow water to drain naturally into ditches or land

Wet weather earlier this year has prompted many growers to re-think their soil drainage strategies. (Picture courtesy of William Moorfoot Ltd).

The primary consideration when thinking about using mole ploughs for field drainage is that the drain outfall or outlet is working.

Mole drains can be a (medium-term) solution to assist with perched water table problems and will entail use of mole ploughs in May or June, through standing crops if necessary. Mole drains should form a part of the land drain design and should be planned to connect to backfills above field drains. The channel created helps take surface water away a lot quicker and you can consider subsoiling damaged areas once crops are harvested. Mole drainage is an extremely useful method to reduce waterlogging on heavier soils, with a minimum of 35 per cent clay for optimum results, and particularly so for flat land with no slopes. Mole drains are unlined channels within the subsoil which are formed using mole ploughs and they will only drain water entering soil from above, and won’t drain groundwater, resulting in the removal of surface water that often forms after snow or wet weather. There are a variety of different continued over...

types of mole plough on the market and these include: • Semi tractor-mounted mole ploughs which act as trailing ploughs and will even out gradient irrespective of ground variations • Trailed mole ploughs which will require powerful tractors but will also scrub the ground throughout the mole ploughing procedure • Gravel mole ploughs which also have gravel hoppers fitted so fine ground gravels can be dropped into the mole channel as it’s ploughed • Fully tractor-mounted mole ploughs where the blade mounts direct to the three-point linkage

When to mole drain Ideally, you should only consider mole draining if soil contains at least 35 per cent clay, as soils with more than a 30 per cent sand composition will collapse as they will not hold the drain shape. You need to time mole ploughing to coincide with a period when soils are moist enough to form channels, but are not so soft they will crack and break up or soft enough to form a slurry. The ideal conditions are generally found in late spring or early summer and, at the time of mole draining, the soil needs to be dry enough to form cracks as this allows traction. When soil is too moist the cracks will remedy and water intake will reduce. Check the long-range weather forecast before mole draining because, ideally, growers should plan for a rain-free period which will allow cracks to dry and the mole channel to harden. It is generally found that when soil at mole draining has a moisture content of around 20–25 per cent, the conditions are best. A simple soil check is to knead the soil between fingers and, if it can be rolled into a tube without sticking to the fingers, it will probably have

the correct moisture levels. It’s not recommended to carry out mole draining in the autumn, as it’s generally the case that topsoils will be wet and subsoils too dry. This will make the subsoil difficult to mole and dry out and it is also quite difficult to achieved desired depths.

Length and depth In general, the maximum length for mole drains should be no more than 200m. This length drain and shorter will empty quicker and won’t get overloaded when conditions are very wet. The best depth for mole drains will depend on the soil type and conditions at the time of draining. Very often, initial mole draining entails using the shallow depth settings as tractors will be limited in the tightest soils. However, as soil structures improve and time elapses, it is possible to plough drains that are deeper. Mole drains which are too shallow are likely to be damaged by animals or tractors during and immediately after rainfall. In general operators should work to a rule whereby the expander to mole draining depth ratio is around 1:7, for the best results. The primary consideration when thinking about using mole ploughs for field drainage is that the drain outfall or outlet is working. If the drain fails then the complete drainage system fails. Fencing open drain outlets should be a consideration if livestock are kept in the field, as this will maintain the cleanliness of the outlet and keep the outfall above drain water levels. This stops water from backing up and clogging up the mole drains which can cause them to collapse. Short lengths of pipe can be used to protect the ends of mole channels and farmers might also want to think about draining mole channels into gravel-filled interceptor drains. They will cost more to install but do protect mole outlets, and can be

fitted to each end of mole channels to speed up land drainage. When performed correctly mole drains can last for several years, so it’s well worth taking the time to ensure mole ploughing is done at the right times and in the best possible fashion. Once a land drainage system has been improved, some factors for consideration include: • fertilisers should not be applied before rain. Ideally, don’t apply fertiliser within about four days of predicted rain, as the improved drainage will take a lot of nutrients away from soils as well as surface waters • use of low ground pressure tyres on tractors and combine harvesters can help reduce surface

soil compaction considerably, and reduce risks of perched water tables Keeping up to speed with issues relating to land drainage throughout the spring and summer months helps reduce problems with excess surface water during the wetter months of the year. It will pay dividends if you take the time to deal with long-term water drainage issues using some of the midto long-term solutions noted above, and helps ensure drilling schedules can kick off at an earlier time in the year. *Agri-Linc hosts a blog on the company’s website including clear visual explanations as to the benefits of mole draining. The blog can be found at: www.agri-linc.com/blog/ benefits-of-mole-draining/ ■

“Unblockable” mole drainers Agri-Linc’s Proforge mole drainers have specific features that define them, says the company, such as a 660mmdiameter disc that moles through standing crops, grass or clover or chopped residues. Coupled with the high-clear Agri-Linc’s Proforge exposed leg beyond the beam, MonoMole. this ensures that the machines are “unblockable”. Traditional moles with legs within a beam can tend to lift or twist when any amount of residue builds around the leg, spoiling the quality or continuity of the drain. Other features include an under-beam wear plate; infinitelyadjustable pitch adjuster; reversible leg with shin; and shear-bolt protection. The MultiMole Twin Leg is for tractors of at least 380hp. The position of the wheels in front of the beams allows for almost 3m of dyke bank-overhang of the beam – very useful for starting drains from the target dyke or pond. It also gives excellent stability on the road thanks to the track width. The MultiMole uses the same proven beam design with disc as the MonoMole machines, and can be used as a single-leg machine with a centre-position mounting bracket.

Power on the Land Farming is making enormous technical progress but, in spite of all the advances, the weather remains beyond our control,and both irrigation and drainage are still key factors for success, writes Mike Williams.

Greencrop Supersilent diesel pump units are enclosed in acoustic cladding to minimise noise problems.

This Mastenbroek 30/20 operated by Miles Drainage is now equipped with GPS Guidance.

For some farmers this year’s weather has already demonstrated the benefits of good land drainage. Fields that were poorly drained took longer to recover from the heavy rainfall, delaying the start of spring cultivations and access to grazing. One of the results of a wet season is that it brings a surge of enquiries about new drainage work, says Miles Drainage’s Andrew Wright. The company, which is based in Suffolk but operates throughout the UK, was originally established more than 100 years ago using steam powered equipment to offer a contract ploughing service for local farmers. The business now has 30 full-time employees and land drainage is a major activity that includes planning and installing new drainage projects, jetting existing drains, ditching and mole drainage. It also makes a singleleg mole drainer based on a Miles design. A recent development is the use of GPS guidance for new drainage schemes, replacing laser systems for both initial planning and installation work. The business made the change about three years ago, and the biggest advantage is that GPS is more versatile, said Mr Wright. It operates efficiently in a wide range of weather conditions, avoiding the delays caused when poor visibility affects laser operated equipment.

and imported by the UK distributor Fentons of Bourne, which offers the cleaners on a sale or a hire basis, and Fentons also provides a parts back-up service. The aim is to clear the build-up of silt and root growth accumulating inside the drainage pipes that can restrict the flow of water, and there are three models in the Homburg range. The jetting water comes from a five-chamber piston diaphragm pump and is delivered through a rigid hose supplied in a standard 300m length. The typical flow rate for jetting is 70–80-litres/min at 35 bar pressure, and a specially designed nozzle provides the jetting action to clean the pipe interior and keep the drainage system working.

Boom unit By early May, irrigation equipment was already operating on lighter land. A recent addition to the equipment range available from Briggs Irrigation is the R46 hosereel mounted boom unit introduced last year. A special feature is the easy folding system to reduce the overall width of the unit for transport, including road travel. Special brackets allow some of the boom sections to be carried vertically, and

this can reduce the overall width to 3.4m for booms with a 2.5m width centre section, or to 3.1m with the 2.2m centre. The Briggs range includes the Roto Rainer self-travelling irrigators for clean water. They can also be used for dirty water disposal when the application rate can be reduced to less than 5mm and the low discharge trajectory reduces the risk of smell, or droplet drift problems when used with dirty water. The Roto Rainer range also includes pumping sets designed with a dirty water capability with capacities as high as 16m3/hr.

Cladding Diesel-powered pumping sets used for crop irrigation often work unattended for long periods, and this can raise a number of potential problems. One of the difficulties can be complaints about the engine noise from people living nearby, and the Supersilent range of pumps made by Greencrop Irrigation have acoustic cladding over the engine which is said to make them the quietest available. Another problem is that a costly diesel pumping unit in an isolated field can be a tempting target for thieves, and the Greencrop range has a removable drawbar to discourage theft, and Datatag security is available. Green crop Supersilent pump units are available with either a 4-cylinder, 126hp Iveco engine or a 170hp 6-cylinder version. Both models have pumps from the Caprari range, and the specification includes a 1,750-litre fully bunded fuel tank.

Drain cleaning Occasional maintenance with water jetting equipment can keep field drains operating efficiently and it can also extend the working life of a drainage system. The Homburg drain cleaner range is made in Holland

The Briggs R46 hosereel-mounted boom irrigator folds to just over 3m wide.

Options include a control system that can be operated remotely by mobile phone

Large range The Bauer company based in Austria provides one of the biggest ranges of equipment for irrigation and for slurry and dirty water management. The choices include the Rainstar series hose irrigators and booms, a range of pump sets plus hard hose reels mounted on two- and four-wheel chassis. The list of specialist equipment for slurry handling includes separators, mixers for homogenising in lagoons and storage tanks, plus tankers. A special feature of the Bauer range is the comprehensive HK series of pipe connectors designed with a lever action that simplifies joining lengths of wet and often dirty irrigation and slurry pipe. As well as being used for pipes, the couplings are also used as connectors on slurry tankers.

Slurry and dirty water Hose reelers are a special feature of the Tramspread range of equipment for dealing with slurry and dirty water. The hose reelers are used with umbilical spreading systems and are available as trailed versions, or for tractor mounting on the front or rear linkage. The standard mounted model with a single hydraulic drive unit can carry 600m of hose, and there is also a larger version with capacity for 1,000m of 4in hose, reducing to 800m with 5in hose, and to 600m with the 6in size. The larger model has two drive units to boost the hose recovery power, and both have a galvanised reel. As well as selling equipment, Tramspread also operates a hire scheme covering a wide range of machinery including engine and PTO-driven pump units, umbilical application systems, stirring equipment for stored slurry plus a 14,000-litre tanker. ■

Time to review irrigation investments

Beat the deadline for grant aid

Greencrop Vision 4i easy-to-use control panel fitted to engine pump sets.

Vegetable growers are reviewing their investments in irrigation, due to potential changes in water legislation and efficiency in irrigating, according to Greencrop. This is partly because growers are renting more land to grow vegetables and root crops, keeping land in rotation and disease free, it says. The company manufactures a range of engine pump sets to run one or more hose reel irrigators for rain gun and booms. These can be fitted with a remote control for start, stop, with line fill protection to avoid blowing underground mains on start-up and high flow pipe burst protection, explains Greencrop. Additionally, pumps can also be monitored via iPad, iPhone or laptop, it says. Water flow can be checked through the pump as well so as not to over-rev

the engine; engine pump sets are also very useful for moving water in winter to fill reservoirs from different water supplies, says Greencrop. Hose reel irrigators will work on any type of soil and land contour and the Irrimec Elite range with the new Dosicontrol Pro computer will record the amount of water used per run and total amount used, it explains. The Elite range of machines has been designed with the professional grower in mind who demands easy-to-operate irrigation systems that require simple maintenance, claims the company. For more durability during long demanding irrigation periods, the chassis is constructed of large steel frames using up to 8mm thick box section, explains the company. Moreover, it adds, the Elite is supplied with a full hydraulic system, control levers now mounted on its own adjustable stand at the front of the machine. The machines are available with either a single or tandem axle chassis with a large range of tyres. In addition, the ST (standard) range of hose reel irrigators is still available, says Greencrop. ■

Mobile app helps with irrigation efﬁciency Optimising water use, minimising operating costs and managing multiple irrigators more efficiently are the key goals of Bauer’s SmartRain irrigation management system. The documentation feature automatically saves water usage records and details of individual irrigator operation based on measurements and information about soil conditions, soil moisture, and the size and shape of different fields. This online data, which can be accessed on an office computer or an app for mobile devices, can be used to optimise water-use management, minimise operating costs and help organise day-to-day operation of irrigation equipment and staff. The SmartRain package, available for an initial fee followed by an annual charge, enables users to monitor just one or several Bauer Rainstar reel-type and Centerstar pivot irrigators, as well as Bauer diesel irrigation pumps. “By receiving information remotely about the progress of

Bauer range of Rainstar reel irrigators.

irrigation sessions and any problems that arise, managers can save a lot of time and focus on other tasks safe in the knowledge that their systems are constantly being monitored,” says Bauer UK & Ireland sales manager, Adrian Tindall. The company’s range of reel irrigators extends from the compact Rainstar T Series, which starts with the T32 model handling Bauer PE pipe in 65-85mm diameters from 220-350m in length, to the full-size E Series, which tops out with the E55 XL carrying pipe lengths of 560-740m

in 125-140mm diameters. The Centerstar range of pivot irrigators is based on three sizes of fixed or mobile towers with boom configurations of up to 8 spans covering 60ha and 150m3/hr; 14 spans for up to 150ha and 400m3/hr and 16 spans covering up to 220ha and 600m3/hr. All can be serviced by a diesel irrigation pump from a six-model range equipped with Caprari or Rovatti pumps and FPT Industrial or Deere Power Systems engines. The SmartRain data system

requires installation of a solarpowered GPS controller, mounted on the chassis of a Rainstar reel irrigator or the Universal PRO-G control unit on the central tower of a centre-pivot system. Access to the SmartRain internet platform is by personal login from a computer. The mobile application, which is available for Apple iOS and Android mobile devices, provides remote control access to the irrigators and pumps, and receives SMS or email messages on designated mobile phones. ■

Drainage investments paying off in 2018 After a long and drawn out winter with little respite from seemingly endless rainfall, soils have been at field capacity for a long while now and drainage has been a hot topic in recent months, says William Morfoot. While it is not unusual to see wet fields in the depths of winter, 2018 produced no let-up for the usually improved spring time period. Spring drilling has been a pressured and problematic affair and top dressing and spray applications have also been a struggle because of difficulties of travelling on saturated soils. “We have had a number of customers comment that recent

investments in land drainage have gone a long way towards paying for themselves over the course of this winter,” says William Morfoot managing director Tim Sisson. “Drainage investment has allowed our customers to take advantage of small weather windows to get key operations done and ultimately, drained land of course recovers more quickly once the rainfall stops.” Many growers are focusing on soil structure and, ultimately, ensuring the potential is there for top yields to be achieved, says the company. Installing land drains is an operation which can help transform underperforming land, says the company.

Installing land drains can help transform under-performing land.

Black-grass issues and the need to re-invest in old or failing drainage schemes have further fuelled the interest in drainage. With impressive uplifts in yields being observed on the back of drainage investment, it seems likely

that land drainage is likely to remain in the spotlight going forwards, it claims. William Morfoot is at the Cereals show on stand 832 and also is exhibiting at the Lincolnshire and Norfolk Shows this summer.

Four generations of drainage experience Clay is the ideal drainage material particularly for the farming community says West Yorkshire based drainage specialist WT Knowles & Sons. It is extremely strong, doesn’t suffer from jetting problems, retains its shape, withstands all normal temperatures and gases, does not corrode and above all, is environmentally friendly. It is ideal for use with bedding materials in shallow

trenches, which aids great cost savings for the farm it says. Based in Elland, WT Knowles produces natural and inert ecofriendly clay products and supplies a competitive and unrivalled range of clay drainage pipes, gullies, traps, interceptors, grease traps and channel fittings. This family owned company was founded in 1906 by Walter Thomas Knowles and has been manufacturing

clay products for four generations. As well as clay pipes, junctions and gullies required to increase field drainage, the Knowles range includes channel pipes to aid surface water run-off in ditch and dyke bottoms as well as flap valves to prevent backflow. Manger tubes are also regularly used in ditch and dyke applications as well as for livestock feeder troughs. In addition, clay poultry troughs, round and square sheep troughs, cattle

troughs and horse mangers with combined water boxes are available. The company also manufactures salt glazed products, which are renowned for their durability and inherent strengths, which can last for centuries. it says Knowles continues to manufacture its products using down draught beehive kilns and traditional moulding techniques, some of which are unchanged since 1906. ■

Keep ditches ﬂowing and crops growing Ditch maintenance is essential to keep fields well drained, says Fen Group. If ditches are not well maintained they become blocked, which can result in water-logged fields, with poor germination, increased pests and disease it says. This can later impact crop yields and increases variable crop cost. “In built up areas it can lead to flooding of residential properties when ditches are not kept clear and able to flow,” says the company which was previously called The Fen Ditching Company. The Fen Group works with its customers, which include

Using skilled drivers to expertly clear the ditches it also cuts new ditches and installs water control structures, to manage the flow of water. Being based in the heart of the Fens the Fen Group is ideally placed to serve the local farmers and Internal Drainage Boards to maintain the ditches in the region it adds. ■

The Fen Group works with its customers to keep ditches well maintained.

Water level management authorities across the country are continuing to raise significant concerns at the threat of licence fee hikes that could end up hitting the farmer’s pocket, following recent changes to water abstraction regulations. Previously, and for many years, Internal Drainage Boards (IDBs) have transferred water from main rivers to local drains for the benefit of farmers, who then abstract the water for irrigation. There are also environmental benefits of augmentation of water levels. The new regulations for water transfer licencing, which came into force from 1 January 2018, remove exemption for a number of activities. Among these changes is a requirement for transfers of water from main rivers into internal drainage districts to be licenced by the Environment Agency. The membership organisation for drainage water level and flood risk management authorities, ADA’s chief executive Innes Thomson explained: “Using information gathered from IDBs by ADA, the Environment Agency has estimated that around 150 licences

will be required collectively by IDBs, each costing £1,500. “This will add an expense and bureaucratic burden that will stifle effective close working between risk management authorities on water resources and environmental management. ADA is simply seeking treatment of IDBs as responsible water managers playing their vital part in working with the EA rather than being treated as businesses using the water.” Water transfers in themselves are not abstractions, the water is not lost to the river network unless it is further abstracted by a landowner. Water abstracted from within an IDB district is licenced by the Environment Agency, therefore the new legislation could see landowners effectively charged twice for the same water, as IDBs will most likely need to pass additional fees on to ratepayers. ADA hopes that a consensus on a pragmatic, light-touch administrative solution can be reached over the next few months which may alter the circumstances where IDBs need to apply for and pay for licences.

Conditions for mole draining should be ideal this year and farmers need to take the opportunity to use this relatively cheap tool to improve the productivity of heavy clay soils. As well as helping to improve an existing drainage system, moling can be used to drain excess water into ditches and prevent water logging says Hankins Engineering. Its Maidwell Moler is suitable for all of these tasks and can be easily used to mole in to ditches. With the continuing war on black-grass, moling can be an essential part of a min-till, low surface disturbance plan of action, and help to improve the health of the soil and the crop. The increase in spring cropping also allows a larger window for moling, ditching and other maintenance work to help the soil structure. The first Maidwell Moler was built by Hankins during the very

wet spring of 1983 and is still in work today. The Maidwell Moler range has a unique pitch adjuster to produce a perfect mole and leave a level surface says Hankins. It has a robust beam construction and a large diameter disc to help alleviate blocking. The unique screw adjusting double ended leg incorporates a shear bolt device and acts as a safety mechanism. The Maidwell Moler range consists of single-, twin- and three-legged machines, trailed and mounted and is available for sale, hire and for contract work. ■

High speed, versatile drill

Series 10 4m MaxiDrill Fertisem.

The new Sky Maxidrill 10 Series will be launched in the UK on the Opico stand at the Cereals event. The drill has features including the ability to seed three different products from separate hoppers (such as seed, fertiliser and slug pellets). Individual metering systems, feeding into two distribution circuits, can place product at two different depths. This means fertiliser application can be targeted, reducing the total amount applied and minimising waste, the company says. “Originally launched in 2002 and with over 1,500 trailed drills at work across Europe, Sky’s MaxiDrill already has a proven track record, says Opico managing director James Woolway.

“It is a high speed, versatile machine with a large hopper capacity and can be used as a min-till drill into crop residues, as well as into ploughed and prepared seedbeds. “It can also be used as a direct drill under certain conditions. The new features will improve its versatility across the UK market, offering precision seeding and application of fertiliser.” Improvements include a new and improved “Fertisem” version, with separate distribution circuits so seed and fertiliser are not mixed and a redesigned coulter able to drill through large volumes of crop residues, the company adds. ■ Stand 840

Major new grain store completed A new grain store at Warrenstone Farm near Drumree, Co. Meath in the Republic of Ireland has opened up new avenues for the farm business, and “deal with almost anything,” according to its owners. The Hobson family, father John along with sons David and Robert who are all actively involved in the farming business, purchased the farm from the Salesian brothers in 2008. The family has since invested heavily in farming and this particular site and the family now owns a total of 620ha of which 320ha are in Co. Meath. They grow winter wheat, winter barley, winter milling oats, spring barley, spring beans and winter oilseed rape. The new grain plant at Warrenstone was designed by BDC director Andrew Lee in conjunction with James Connor, director of IGS. Their brief from John Hobson was to provide a plant that would allow better control of the grain. Irish conditions at harvest can be difficult, so a dryer was necessary to ensure the quality of the grain which is often forward sold and needs to be stored for long periods in top condition. Grain is fed into the plant via a Skandia KTIG curved intake chain and flight conveyor featuring a 6m trench intake set 1.4m below the level of the tipping trailers. Supplied by BDC Systems and Irish Grain Systems (IGS) the new plant features a 27tph Svegma 5/4 grain dryer, a Zanin PPR4/9 rotating drum cleaner and a Soby R60 aspirating pre-cleaner. Movement of the grain around the plant is achieved using five 60tph Skandia I Line conveyors, three 60tph I line elevators and a Cimbria GT400 60tph 30m long belt conveyor. From the intake the grain has several routes it can take, but all routes go via the aspirating pre cleaner. Should the grain not require further cleaning or drying, both or either part of the system can be bypassed before the grain is transported to the stores via the belt conveyor. Grain exiting the dryer has two routes it can take either to the stores or back to the dryer to recirculate grain that is not yet dry. This route also allows the dryer to be used as a batch dryer when conditions demand it. The control system is fully integrated and includes a PLC dryer control panel with touch screen and a relay logic plant control panel and LED indication for the safety systems incorporated in the plant. These include pop up blockage flaps, capacitive proximity blockage probes, belt speed monitors and position indication of valves and the belt

discharge car. The Zanin drum cleaner was an area of the plant that was discussed long and hard before the order was placed, but has proved very useful cleaning everything from camelina seed grown off site, to beans. The cleaner features four screens and the ability to both pre-clean prior to the dryer with only large particles being removed or to grade and fine clean products to a higher specification if required. David Hobson said that the Zanin drum cleaner had opened up new avenues for the farm: “We are actively cleaning and drying oilseed rape

destined for the food market for crushing, which offers a premium price. “Our customers are seriously impressed with the sample of grain produced from just one pass of the cleaner, significantly reducing trash. It has also enabled us to home save our seed, providing a highly homogenised sample, provided that the right screens are used. “Trickier products like camelina seed can be managed effectively by the system from changing the continuous flow dryer to a batch dryer,

proving that the smart design can deal with almost anything.” John Hobson added: “Our new plant is clean, fast and efficient. It is simple to use and has many safety features which we find very reassuring.” ■ Stand 1028

Telehandlers for all applications Effective and efﬁcient weeders The high capacity KT557 telehandler is designed for use in intensive applications.

German manufacturer Kramer produces a range of telehandlers up to 9m stacking height. Kramer products include compact, all-wheel steer loaders (eight models), telescopic wheel loaders (four models) and telehandlers (nine models). The machines can be equipped with a variety of manual and hydraulic headstocks as well as a range of hydraulic and braking options to the rear. The attachments can be changed due to the hydraulic systems and pressure release option available. Starting with the cabin, a new operating concept is used for the telehandlers which enables an

intuitive operation of all functions by using the electronically pilotoperated all-in-one joystick and the jog dial control element. For example, the joystick’s sensitivity can be individually adjusted with this. All relevant vehicle data and settings are displayed via the new 7in display. An innovation used for the models KT507 (optional), KT557 and KT559 is the new hydrostatic, wideangle drive system ecospeedPRO with 370cc capacity for increased tractive force and driving dynamics which was co-developed by Kramer. As standard, all models are equipped with the driver assistance system Smart Handling with three functional modes for different requirements. Smart Handling supports the end user in efficient and convenient operation, thus ensuring efficient materials handling on the farm. With the wide range of attachments the machines are extremely versatile for all agricultural applications says the manufacturer. Stand 623

Growers with specialist crops who want to tackle weeds mechanically could benefit from investing in an Aerostar machine, says Terrington Machinery. The company supplies both the Exact Tined Weeder and the Rotation Rotative Weeder. As its name suggests the Exact offers precision in both its functionality and adjustments, says Terrington. “It is very simple: for the Aerostar-Exact the tines of 7 x 600mm long are always set in light ‘on hold’. This can be done hydraulically from the tractor seat. An indicator on one of the outer cylinders helps to find the desired tine position. The support wheels are adjusted, so that the weeding elements run absolutely parallel to the soil during operation. The pin of the top linkage should be about in the middle of the long hole.” The Rotation is a rotative weeder and is very flexible. Rotating working tools uproot the weeds, encourage tillering and crack even hard soil crusts without any problems, says the company. The star wheels are mounted on an incline, therefore the efficiency of weed control is more

thorough. Furthermore, the wheels are very insensitive to organic residues and so this machine is perfectly suited for mulch-tillage. Even at low working speed as often required for sensitive crops, the Aerostar-Rotation does very effective work, says Terrington. The 6.5 mm thick steel tines, casted into an inclined plastic disc work well. Each of these 50cm star wheels are suspended separately, therefore, they adapt perfectly to surface irregularities. The discs are mounted at a line distance of 15cm on sections of 1.5m. The inverted arrangement of these inclined mounted discs from the middle of the machine prevents a possible side pull. Stand 908

Machinery range boost to biogas business Dale Aston with the new 6.5m CultiMax seedbed cultivator.

Green energy production is becoming an increasing focus for UK agriculture and is a key component of brothers’ Mark and Dale Aston’s business. They are joint partners in Brinklow Biogas, based in Brinklow, Warwickshire, where they have devoted their entire arable area of 800+ ha to crops for the production of biogas via a 500m3 gas-to-grid plant. The rotation includes maize, energy beet, whole-crop and grass, with maize accounting for about

650ha of the total. Maize for AD plants accounts for 50 per cent of the UK’s total maize area with almost all provided as maize silage. With the massive volume produced by chopping the wholecrop together, and with storage and transport issues, Dale was keen to look at harvesting grain maize as a way of dealing with these issues, in addition there was the other known benefit of a far greater yield of gas from the grain maize. “Road transport is always problematical and generates a lot of negativity from the public towards our project, so we were keen to find alternatives and reduce movements, improve our carbon footprint and be more sustainable,” explains Dale. “Reducing field traffic also has a positive effect on soil structures and helps keep mud off the highway. The inclusion of grain maize, together with energy beet, has given a significant gas production saving and

Direct drill coulters make converting easier Direct drill coulters on a Horsch drill belonging to Tom Greenhalgh, Mill Hill Farms Ltd, Retford.

Converting your Horsch CO or Sprinter drill has never been easier thanks to its tungsten carbide tipped conversion coulters, according to JJ Metcalfe (JJM). After 70 years of involvement in the agricultural industry, it has built an extensive knowledge base from first-hand contracting experience to the advanced design and engineering of parts, says the company. This knowledge combined with a forward-thinking attitude and specialist understanding of tungsten carbide led to the innovative and hugely successful direct drill conversion coulters, it adds. “Sometimes the simplest solutions are the most effective,” says JJM conversion coulters

designer Mike Metcalfe. “The narrow profile of the tungsten carbide tip coupled with the neutral working angle eliminates smearing without compromising penetration, and completely minimises soil disturbance and wear.” The conversion coulters can be supplied with a range of tube attachments to suit seeds, beans and liquid fertiliser. In addition, the replaceable tungsten carbide tipped point can be changed to one of three options, explains the company. It points out that farmers and growers are sharing their experiences of the coulters on social media, posting images of drilled fields and crops emerging as well as videos of their drills in action. “The social media response is great for us as we can see what’s happening out in the fields and can use the information to further develop the coulters,” says Abi Metcalfe. ■ Stand 932

improved the yield from the land,” he adds. After the maize is harvested a cover crop is sown which is a mix of oats and mustard – this is then ploughed down in the spring which maintains soil structure, reduces erosion and increases organic matter. Coupled with the liquid digestate and separated plant fibre residues from the AD facility, this has resulted in a healthier and more productive soil with increased worm populations, he suggests.

The right kit Integral to the brothers’ farming enterprise is a range of equipment manufactured by Dal-Bo. Dale’s first introduction to the company’s range of machinery was the purchase of a set of 12.3m XL Cambridge rolls with breaker rings. “I liked the neat folding arrangement of these rolls and the weight distribution system,” he says. “It was clear to me from the onset that this was a company which took a keen interest in its customers – both with new purchases and after-sales. Since that first purchase we have

added a further seven pieces of Dal-Bo kit: a 6m Greenline grass roll, 2 x 6m Levelflex front presses with cracker boards; a 6m Maxicut (which does the job of destroying cover crops and residue stalks); a 6.2m Rollomaximum and, the most recent, a 6.3m double press roller with front mounted cracker boards.” According to Dale, the 6.3m double press roller is towed behind a 6.5m CultiMax trailed seedbed cultivator with front mounted T ring roller – the first in the UK. “This combination was set up following a conversation with Dal-Bo as to what I felt was the perfect cobble breaking machine,” he comments. “A 6m width is the common size of machine we have here which enables us, via RTK, to operate controlled traffic farming. “Finally, I have to say that we have been very pleased with the Dal-Bo machines and the product support provided. For us they represent value for money for our business,” he concludes. ■ Stand 992

It’s not too late for DIY drainage projects The Beast from the East and the wettest March in a decade left many farms with heavily waterlogged fields and delayed drilling of Spring crops. Lincolnshire drainage company Shelton Drainage said that it’s not too late to resolve drainage issues for this year’s crops. Director Richard Clark explained that its CT150 chain trencher cuts the trench and lays the pipe directly onto the trench bottom in a one pass operation. “The ideal situation for installing drainage is in the drier months, however if the ground conditions are good enough to support the equipment we can trench directly into standing water to install drainage pipes,” he explained. “When conditions are so wet, this presents a good option for many farmers as the drainage starts to work immediately; exit outfalls

start to flow and surface water drains away, reducing downtime before cultivation and drilling.” The CT150 was designed to meet a gap in the market for affordable yet effective in-house drainage and to provide a highly accurate self-propelled trencher, but without the hefty price tag.

Tailor made crop storage Designing a storage system to suit any farmer’s budget is one of the services offered by Martin Lishman. “We aim to be a one-stop shop,” said managing director Dr Gavin Lishman. “Our modular Pile-Dry and FloorVent Pedestal systems are installed in on-floor and under-floor storage sites from 100–100,000t, in grain from 2.5 to more than 14m deep. “Coupled with our new Green high-performance Pile-Dry Fans, we can deliver the highest airflow of any low volume system available and ensure the fastest cooling possible, he explained.” The company’s specialists also understand the need to handle excess warm air extracted from the crop, he added. “We were the first company to supply building air extraction matched to the grain ventilation system, using our StoreVent high volume fans and louvres, and to link the two together automatically for maximum efficiency. “Energy efficient cooling with full traceability via the internet is the way forward in today’s quality and energy-conscious world and we can provide just that with our Barn Owl Wireless automatic fan control and temperature monitoring system.” There is no need to travel to the store to take crop temperatures, he explained. “For complete traceability, Barn Owl wireless records everything remotely and stores the data for internet download and presentation in quality audits.” Stand 1042

Live demonstration of portable weigh system At this year’s Cereals event, Griffith Elder will have a dedicated demonstration area adjacent to the Griffith Elder stand, the company has announced. The idea is to provide visitors with the opportunity to see first-hand working demonstrations of its 4.4m Portable Weigh Beams. These beams now come as a complete kit and include ancillaries such as a traffic light and large display, as well as delivery to mainland UK, says Griffith Elder. Moreover, they are designed to be fully portable and can be powered from leisure batteries as well as mains power, it explains. Combined with the welded steel

structure for durability, the system is ideal for agricultural use especially where multiple sites are involved such as contract farming, claims Griffith Elder. The Portable Weigh Beams can be used for loads of up to 60t and are offered in two sizes: 2.8 and 4.4m. The Weigh Beams are factory calibrated and the system is a plug and weigh design so that on-site set up is minimal, says the company. A FOB system is available with the Weigh Beams which provides a quick and automated operation for both small and large vehicles, adds Griffith Elder. The system can record both electronic and paper copies of tickets;

data is automatically saved onto a USB stick and tickets are automatically printed. These records can be output to a spreadsheet. This provides accurate data for field yields as well as the amount of grain being stored, says the company. ■ Stand 996 Portable weigh beams will be demonstrated at Cereals 2018.

Latest varieties at Cereals 2018 Two new soft wheat varieties, Elicit and Elation, will take centre stage in Elsoms’ plot. Elicit – a newly recommended biscuit wheat – combines robust disease resistance with high yield and good grain quality. “With a treated yield of 103 per cent, Elicit sits at joint top of the table, while its septoria score of 6.4 puts it in front of anything else in the Group 3 market,” says Elsoms’ Adrian Hayler. Elation is a soft Group 4 wheat with one of the highest specific weights in its Group at 78.3kg/hl. “It has an excellent potential for distilling, its UKS specification makes it ideal for export and is very high yielding at 104 per cent (treated),” adds Mr Hayler. Elsoms will also be showcasing its latest oilseed rape variety – Kielder. Particularly valuable for growers in the North, Kielder boasts excellent vigour in the autumn and spring and a good defence against cabbage stem flea beetle, as well as a 7 for light leaf spot resistance. The variety also has very stiff straw, providing resistance to lodging and easier harvesting. Stand 510

RAGT will be showcasing the latest addition to its wheat profile – Gravity. RGT Gravity is the highest yielding winter wheat in the UK. This hard Group 4 variety has proved very consistent, outperforming all other varieties in NL1 and NL2 and during its RL trial year. The variety is a 3-way cross of Oakley, Scout and Santiago and commands top spot as a first and second wheat on both heavy and light soils. It has a very good disease profile and is also resistant to orange wheat blossom midge. The company will also be showcasing its latest spring barley variety, RGT Asteroid. Recently added to the 2018/19 Recommended List as a malt and grain distilling variety under test, it looks to be particularly well suited to the Scottish distilling market. The variety will be launched commercially for spring 2020. It is set to challenge Concerto, Fairing and Octavia, thanks to its superior yields of high specific weight grain, which delivers a high hot water extract and high diastatic power. The variety is approved by CBMO in France and is in trial in Germany and Austria, so the likelihood for export markets is high. Stand 561

Latest technical advice

Gravity is the highest yielding winter wheat in the UK.

Across the entire NIAB stand there are 110 different crop and variety plots, providing a backdrop to the latest technical advice and research in variety choice, independent agronomy, soil and rotation management, crop genetics and data science. The variety demonstration area alone includes 40 winter wheat and 27 winter oilseed rape varieties, either already established on the

NIAB’s technical director Bill Clark says: “Our untreated plots will give visitors a head start in their variety selection for next season, with differences in disease resistance and performance between the varieties clearly evident. NIAB TAG specialists will be available to provide expert, independent advice and comment on variety choice across all cereal, oilseed and pulse crops.”

Growing market share One of the UK’s top selling winter wheat varieties will be joined by potential market-leading new and Candidate varieties on the Senova stand. Costello, the company’s hard Group 4 winter wheat, has gained further market share this year and is now one of the country’s top four varieties – with experts predicting that it will continue to grow in area. Also on display will be some of

Senova’s exciting pipeline varieties, including two winter barley Candidates, Sobell and Valerie, both of which are 2-row feed types. Among the Senova oat portfolio will be two development winter oats, Galloway and Penrose, as well as a new spring oat Candidate, Elison. Of these, Galloway is a specialist low lignin husked variety developed for the animal feed market, while high yielding Elison is up for recommendation later this year. Another new recommendation is winter bean variety Vespa; an early, short and stiff type with good seed colour and a pale hilum, making it suitable for the human consumption market. Stand 453

Tyre delivers across different surfaces and weather conditions The Alliance 550 Multiuse Radial is a versatile tyre that delivers results whatever the weather.

A tyre designed to work in different weather conditions, on different surfaces and for different tasks, will be on-show at Cereals 2018, Alliance Tire Group (ATG) has announced. Available in more than 40 sizes, the Alliance 550 Multiuse Radial is a versatile tyre which delivers results whatever the weather, the company claims. It decided to extend the range of

available Multiuse 550 Radial tyres in response to a trend towards using agricultural tractors for multiple tasks throughout the year, explains ATG. Uses catered for now include agricultural tractors, telescopic handlers, backhoe loaders, skid-steer loaders in addition to forestry and compact construction machines, trailers and tankers. The 550 Multiuse is a pneumatic

tyre that has low rolling resistance, less noise generation, effective puncture protection and long service life, says the company. Due to its robust construction with radial body plies, steel belts and nylon overlay, its directional block and lug pattern, and the high rubber to void ratio (which increases the tyre’s ability to drain water), it delivers good traction, longer tread life, and effective puncture protection, resulting in minimum downtime, claims ATG. In addition, the blocks are able to penetrate snow, sand, mud and any other soft surface ensuring excellent traction, while the lugs with their shallow angle ensure high traction on any surface. Moreover, the directional tread provides effective traction and lower rolling resistance and the ‘S’ blocks from the tyre’s centre line ensure excellent drivability and manoeuvrability, along with low wear when the tyre is used on hard surfaces, adds the company. Whether the tyre is put to work on

soft surfaces such as agricultural land, sand or snow, uneven surfaces such as building and construction sites, forest floors or agricultural land, or hard surfaces such as concrete, asphalt or ice, the 550 Multiuse ensures that engine power delivers increased traction, claims the company. As a result, it is being used in sectors such as agriculture, forestry, construction, material handling, transport and municipalities as the tyre for transport and grassland applications. With nearly 60 years of experience, ATG specialises in the design, development, manufacturing and marketing of agriculture, forestry, construction, industrial and earthmoving tyres under Alliance, Galaxy and Primex brands. The company serves customers in 120 countries across six continents, offering a wide range of products, from basic entry-level to superior quality tyres. All of the tyres are designed, developed and tested at its advanced R&D centres around the world, adds ATG. ■ Stand 631

BETTER VALUE. SMARTER CHOICE.

Corteva Agriscience set to be unveiled Farmers attending Cereals 2018 will get their first opportunity to discover the solutions Corteva Agriscience, the agriculture division of DowDuPont, will offer to UK farm businesses. As reported in Farmers Guide in March, Corteva Agriscience combines the resources and heritage of Dow AgroSciences, DuPont Crop Protection and DuPont Pioneer. Cereals will be the first chance for farmers to experience the breadth and depth of products currently on the market with the new-look company and understand how the future pipeline is being shaped to benefit their businesses. UK & Ireland country leader Adrian Gough (right) said: “We have created a standalone agriculture company with leading positions in seed technologies, crop protection and

digital agriculture. “Farmers in the UK are facing huge challenges and will need to adapt and innovate if they are to thrive in a tough regulatory and policy environment. “We know that farmers are resilient and progressive, but they need the tools that are flexible, reliable and fit for the future. “That is our challenge, and one we will rise to.” Corteva Agriscience will retain many of the products synonymous with its heritage brands, says the company. Arylex Active was introduced for broad-leaved weed control in cereal crops in 2016 and has proven to be robust and reliable in Pixxaro and Zypar. It has recently been used in co-formulation with aminopyralid in Trezac to deliver reliable control of poppy, including ALS and SUresistant populations. The molecule is pending

Zorvec Enicade (oxathiapiprolin), which gained approval in time for applications this season, controls late blight in potatoes at a 10-day persistency against the industry standard of 7, says Corteva Agriscience.

Chemicals Regulation Directorate approval for use in oilseed rape crops too. If approved, it will give growers an alternative to pre-emergence herbicides, allowing them to see a crop emerge before investing in crop protection. It is just one of a number of innovations that put the requirements of UK growers at the centre of product development, continues the business. Zorvec Enicade (oxathiapiprolin) is a further example. The product, which gained approval in time for applications this season, controls late blight in potatoes at a revolutionary 10-day persistency against the industry standard of 7. Further innovations include a new molecule which delivers aphid control in a wide range of cereals, fruit and vegetable crops.

A much-needed tool to protect cereal crops from septoria tritici is also coming down the pipeline. Company experts will be on hand to speak to farmers throughout the 2-day event, and Mr Gough says he is delighted to be able to get the opportunity to show what the inception of Corteva Agriscience will mean for growers on a practical level. He added: “We are excited to be showing the industry what Corteva Agriscience stands for and how we can work together to make a real difference to farming in the UK and Ireland.” ■ Stand 448

Sprayer made-to-measure The high-spec Vantage trailed sprayer provides an answer to customers looking for a made-to-measure spraying solution adapted to their farm and their crops, according to Berthoud. Features include Actiflex II axle suspension, Dualmatic operation and its motorised version Dualelec, as well as the company’s proven boom range, it says. Three spray control systems are available: while the EC Tronic is fitted as standard, access to Isobus technology is provided by the Berthoud VT Tronic touch screen or Isotronic, which operates directly on the virtual screen of the tractor, explains the company. Both the VT Tronic and Isotronic

systems incorporate the EC Tronic controller which is in a protective case under the sprayer’s front housing. This is particularly valuable during servicing if the Isobus tractor is otherwise engaged or if the sprayer needs to be used on a non Isobus tractor, claims Berthoud. The remote control E Pilot joystick allows the user to operate and calibrate nozzles from the rear of the sprayer, it adds. “The Vantage is the sprayer for farmers who want to combine application precision, high productivity and comfort,” says Berthoud head of ground crop products, François-Xavier Janin.

“This concept reveals a new facet of the Berthoud brand in the high-spec trailed sprayers sector.” The new Vantage range of trailed sprayers comprises five models of 2,800, 3,500, 4,300, 5,500 and 6,700 litres that can be fitted with three boom types ranging from 24–44m. The next generation of controls, ’Spraytronic’, is on-trial in France and Switzerland. This new system is aimed at ensuring consistent application rate and droplet size with fixed pressure across a wide range of forward speeds, the company says. ■ Stand 701 The Vantage will be on display at Cereals 2018.

Discuss top oilseed rape varieties at Cereals Visitors will be able to find out more about the latest additions to the AHDB Recommended List (RL), including two new high yielding oilseed rape varieties from DLF Seeds. Topping the yield table in all trials in 2017 and leading the way on the northern RL in 2018 is Elevation, with a gross output of 107.4 per cent against the controls, says the company. Independent breeder Mike Pickford was targeting yields of over 6t/ha for his new varieties – and in 2015 Elevation achieved 7t/ha in trials. “If you do not start with a variety with high yield potential then it does not matter what agronomy you use, it will not perform,” says Mr Pickford. “I found the Elevation family five years ago, and knew it was going to be good.” However, if getting one variety on the RL wasn’t good enough, he enjoyed double success this year, with Broadway also making the grade. Averaging a gross output

Independent breeder Mike Pickfood.

of 106.7 per cent, this variety is particularly suited to the north due to its excellent light leaf spot resistance and long pod-fill period. Both varieties are vigorous, with robust standing ability, good resistance to verticillium wilt and lower biomass, enabling the light to penetrate the canopy and improving pod fill. Mr Pickford explains: “I want to breed what the farmer wants; something that looks nice, yields well and is consistent.” At Cereals 2018, DLF will be supporting one of its distributors, Anglia Grain Service.

After this year’s cold wet winter and the record high prices for straw, baling has become a hot topic, according to EPR. Farmers who may have previously been reluctant to allow their straw to be baled are now not just talking to local baling contractors but also considering the possibility of running their own balers, it says. A straw-fired power station could be the right choice for growers looking for a reliable market for straw as straw sales have proved themselves to be a valuable additional income for arable businesses, the company claims. The UK’s first straw-fired power station was EPR Ely in Cambridgeshire and since 2000 the company has evolved with the aim of becoming a leading choice in the industry, it says. ‘’Regular collections and reliable cash-flow

are important considerations for many when considering avenues to market,” says EPR straw operations manager Justin Long. The company will be exhibiting at Cereals, where the station’s fuel team will be actively promoting the advantages of supplying straw to the power station. “We are looking forward to seeing potential and existing clients at the show and explaining the benefits of supplying EPR,” continues Mr Long. The company is actively looking for new suppliers and can also assist in providing options, help and advice for those considering baling their straw. Stand 205

Protein boost with foliar fertiliser range

New direct drilling plots at Cereals

Rosalind Platt, managing director of BFS.

There is still time to boost protein levels in wheat and barley with PolyNPlus, according to Billericay Fertiliser Services (BFS). Farmers who used the new breakthrough foliar fertiliser range at this time last year experienced excellent results, the company reports. Developed by crop nutrition specialist BFS, the PolyNPlus range represents a major advance in nitrogen efficiency because it reduces the amount needed and virtually eliminates nitrate losses, claims the company. It is also safe to apply and can be

tank-mixed with a wide range of crop protection products, reducing the number of passes needed, says BFS. The foliar fertiliser has been formulated with urea polymers, sulphur and selected trace elements, to provide a controlled release of nitrogen in a form more easily absorbed by the crop than traditional products, it explains, adding that improved leaf adhesion significantly reduces volatilisation and leaching. It is also producing significant increases in yield when used midway through the growing period, says BFS. Nevertheless, it is important to be able to use it at the right time, emphasises the company. Visitors to Cereals will be able to find out more about BFS and its sister company, Billericay Farm Services, which will be displaying its popular range of dribble bars, spray nozzles, jets and sprayer accessories and spares. ■ Stand 806

Ryetec MAAG 6m grain and fertiliser direct low disturbance drill on a sterile seedbed.

The Maag direct low disturbance disc drill will be operating with Ryetec on the new direct drilling plots at Cereals 2018. The drill is able to work in “almost any situation”, be it direct, min till or conventional systems, or a mixture of any of the three says Ryetec. The double disc coulter with a minimum of 240kg pressure and individual press wheels with sowing depth control (all with independent suspension from the drills toolbar) offer accurate and even seed depth across the full width of the drill. The straight but serrated opening disc has an angled plain disc to open the seeding slot. This makes for a low draft requirement and minimal disturbance, while the opening discs’ undulating cut is lower than the

planted seed offering good drainage and a head start for roots. The rubber press wheel with its convex footprint takes the coulters’ full downward pressure once the desired drilling depth is reached to ensure a constant closing of the drill slot from both sides. A ridge above the seed prevents capping and gives excellent seed-to-soil contact for quick germination. The Maag is available with fertiliser application via a separate system to the seed. Fertiliser is placed directly below the seed for quick nutrient uptake as soon as possible after germination. Electronic seed and fertiliser rate control is available as an option with variable seed rate capability. Sizes range from 3-6m. Stand 904

Research in practice With water making up more than 95 per cent of the spray volume, a better understanding of its properties and how these influence performance is seen as central to maintaining herbicide and fungicide efficacy, according to De Sangosse. To help growers unlock the potential of water, De Sangosse has launched H2KnOw, an initiative to help growers and their advisers address the issues that affect spray performance, such as hard water or high pH. “When you consider that, uncorrected, hard water can reduce the efficacy of certain herbicides by up to 30 per cent, then countering its effects becomes central to supporting performance,” says De Sangosse commercial manager Rhodri Morris. Oilseed rape yields have been protected by up to 0.5t/ha with the application of Pod-Stik, farming’s most popular pod-sealant, he continues. “Pod-Stik protects yields, reduces volunteers and leaves less cover for pests, whatever the season brings, it always pays to protect against shatter losses.” Visitors to the De Sangosse stand at Cereals will also be able to discover its range of metaldehyde and ferric phosphate molluscicides, the company says. “Ironmax Pro offers the same

best-in-class performance as our metaldehyde-based pellets. It means those growers seeking a high-quality alternative to metaldehyde have a proven choice,” says commercial manager Simon McMunn. Continuing the De Sangosse theme of research in practice, the stand will host KITT, the Pontiac Firebird Trans-Am, from the popular 1980s television series, Knight Rider. To visit KITT, hear more about the firm’s range of industry leading pod-sealants, molluscicides, water conditioners and range of micronutrients, visitors to Cereals 2018 are encouraged to visit the De Sangosse team. ■ Stand 348

Rooﬁng choice impacts business proﬁtability Temperature control, low humidity and adequate ventilation are essential elements to minimise spoilage of crops in storage, says Marley Eternit agricultural specialist Stuart Daniell. “Building materials and design all have an impact on these elements, which work together to increase farm profitability,” explains Mr Daniell. “When choosing materials for a new build or refurbishment project on an existing agricultural building, long-term impacts on the operation’s bottom line need to be factored in.” When it comes to roofing materials, the moisture absorption properties of semi-compressed fibre cement profiled sheeting make it the best option for agricultural buildings. Profile 6 semi-compressed fibre cement profiled sheeting from Marley Eternit can absorb up to 25 per cent of its weight in moisture, which is dissipated under warm, dry conditions, according to the company. “Semi-compressed fibre cement sheets have larger pores in the material than fully compressed fibre cement sheets, allowing for greater moisture absorption,” says Mr Daniell. “This greatly reduces the risk of condensation and high humidity which are leading

culprits of in-store losses.” Profile 6, which has a lifespan of 50 years, is resistant to rot, rust and corrosion, making it a better long-term investment than metal roofing which may only last 10 years in the harsh UK environment, the company claims. It also has low thermal conductivity, reducing rapid temperature swings within a building which compromise livestock health and crop storage conditions, it adds. Temperature, humidity and ventilation are also essential for livestock and can be read about in the “Livestock building design and material guide for natural ventilation” e-book from Marley Eternit. ■ Stand 276

New generation of silage trailers

The New Holland CR8.80 features a revised rotor cage to increase space for threshing.

Rotary combine harvesters The latest rotary combine models from New Holland will be on display at Cereals. Visitors will be able to view the CR9.80 Revelation 24in SmartTrax with Flex Technology, part of the CR Revelation range launched last year, as well as the flagship FR920 forage harvester. The manufacturer’s new T6 Direct Command and high performance T7 Heavy Duty tractors will also be on display. New Holland has also provided the event with two T6 tractors to pull the visitor trailer shuttle to and from the car park on both days. The latest CR models have been designed with increased capacity in mind. Both narrow and wide width models feature more space in the rotor tube for increased capacity at a lower power requirement. The new styling also ensures improved visibility and serviceability. Launched at harvest 2017, the narrow frame CR7.90 and CR8.80 feature a revised rotor cage, which increases the space available for threshing while the latest twin pitch rotors and a revised dynamic feed roll maintain

crop throughput in even the most difficult harvesting conditions. The wide frame models now feature Twin Pitch Plus as standard, the rotor configuration that was developed especially for the worldbeating CR10.90. Residue management is likely to be one of the biggest challenges facing farmers over the next 10 years, says the company. The CR8.90, CR9.80, CR9.90 and CR10.90 all benefit from a revised residue management system including a chaff distribution system, a revised straw chopper rotor for finer chopping and revisions to the Opti-Spread system to ensure even spreading of chopped material out to 14.5m. Another highlight of the New Holland stand will be the FR920 forage harvester and the new T6 Dynamic Command multi-purpose tractor range with new, 8-step semi-powershift transmission. The T6 offers between 145–175 max hp with engine power management. The T6 Dynamic Command range is now available via New Holland dealers with demonstration units also now available. Stand 887

p The fully opening rear door and shredding beaters of the Joskin Silo Space 2. u The front wall of the Silo Space 2 is able to help the unloading process.

Belgian manufacturer Joskin has revealed updates to one of its most popular products, the Silo Space. Improvements include changing the independent chassis fitted on the previous version for a self-supporting structure. This makes for a lighter machine while also increasing body height by 200mm and offers a wider transport capacity, says the company. The front wall of the trailer has been completely redesigned and now benefits from a 22 degree slope instead of the previous 10 degrees which has increased the overall capacity of the trailer. Similarly, thanks to the new joint system fitted, the front wall can now help the unloading process by pushing trailer

contents backwards. This function works alongside the new moving floor of the body, which is now PTOdriven and split in two pieces along its whole length, and enables faster unloading. Hydraulic suspension of the running-gear is fitted as standard to make the machine steadier and increase the pendulum effect between the axles. The Silo Space 2 will be available in Spring 2019. ■ Stand 603

New drills to be showcased Discussion forums offer at Cereals practical advice The new Citan 12001-C Isobus solo seed drill.

New high-tech kit will be launched onto the market at Cereals 2018, Amazone has announced. The company will be exhibiting new drills, cultivators and sprayers, both static and working, at the show. The window of opportunity to get crops established is tight so wider machines that increase work rates and drilling systems which create less soil disturbance are proving to be the way forward, the company claims. The high output solo 12 and 15m wide Citan-C drills feature a new 8,000 litre pressurised seed hopper split into three sections to enable up to three different materials to be sown simultaneously, says Amazone. The hopper is accessed via a new step and platform and the controls have been grouped together with a

new operator station. The three metering rollers are driven electrically via an Isobus terminal. The new Citan drill will adopt the RoTeC pro S single disc coulter from the Cirrus with its 400mm diameter Boron steel disc. Depth control discs and a reduced width furrow-former help keep optimum planting depth in both damp and dry conditions, says Amazone. Seed embedment is either via the Exact harrow S or the Roller harrow, depending on soil type, it adds. ■ Stand 705

High yielding Candidate wheat Visitors to Limagrain’s stand at Cereals can find out about new high yielding wheat Candidate for 2018-2019 LG Skyscraper, as well as new high yielding hard wheat LG Jigsaw and spring barley LG Diablo. Limagrain claims that at 109 per cent Skyscraper could potentially be “the overall highest yielding wheat variety ever” should it gain full recommendation to the 201920 AHDB Recommended List. Skyscraper’s yield shows a significant and consistent 4 per cent increase over the benchmark feed variety KWS Santiago in treated trials. After two years of official testing, Skyscraper has been rated as a positive for distilling. It also shows good resistance ratings for mildew (7), yellow rust (8), brown rust (6) and for septoria tritici (6). “Agronomically, LG Skyscraper shows itself to be a robust and flexible variety, suitable for drilling from the third week of September onwards and also offers a later drilling opportunity in regards to black-grass control scenario. It is early maturing – the same as JB Diego and Skyfall,” said Limagrain

UK arable technical manager, Ron Granger. Jigsaw is the highest yielding hard feed wheat Candidate which suits the early drilling slot. It has resistance against septoria tritici (6), yellow rust (8), brown rust (7) and eyespot (7). Diablo is the highest yielding spring barley available on the AHDB RL list 2018/19, yielding 106 per cent. This performance is also reflected in the very high untreated yields, as a result of the variety’s excellent disease resistance package. Diablo is medium in height with good lodging and brackling resistance. It is currently under test for malting barley committee (MBC) approval for both brewing and malt distilling. It has the highest hot water extract available, a trait that helped Concerto to become the benchmark variety. LG Diablo also has a good specific weight, making it suitable for the brewing and malting industry. Limagrain will also be exhibiting its line-up of conventional and hybrid oilseed rape varieties.

The Robocrop ranges in size from 1.5m mounted machines to a 24m trailed machine working in varied row widths and accurately hoeing within 8mm to the centre of the plant. When used in cereal crops it allows for aeration and locked up nitrogen to be released from the movement of the soil between the rows. It enables further nutrients to be available to the crop, while eliminating weeds that are becoming competition to the growing crop. Like all Garford products it is possible to add under sowing units or fertiliser applicators to the Robocrop High Speed Hoe. Garfords hoes can work in the narrowest of row spacings while still being able to achieve high accuracy at speeds of 5kph.

Interactive demonstrations of machinery terminals

Low pH may compromise yield and quality Recent data from the British Survey of Fertiliser Practice demonstrates the continuation of the low levels of liming in both arable and grassland rotations, according to British Sugar. Furthermore, information collected for the 2017 PAAG survey showed that 53 per cent of grassland and 16 per cent of arable land tested at, or below, pH 6.0, the company says. These levels will impact significantly on the utilisation of costly N, P and K and other nutrients, says British Sugar. It advises routine soil pH testing to avoid consequential loss of yield and quality by maintaining pH at an

appropriate level for the rotation, warning that ignoring soil pH and available calcium can prove to be a very costly mistake even in the short to medium term. With over 85 per cent passing 150um, and minimum 95 per cent reactivity LimeX offers both fast acting, but lasting pH correction in arable and grassland rotations, and can be used in organic farming systems, says British Sugar. Furthermore, the integral nutrient package within LimeX contributes to maintaining soil fertility and increases available calcium, it adds. ■ Stand 416

The CCI 1200 terminal features a 30.5cm touchscreen.

Two new Isobus-compatible terminals will be on display at the Kuhn stand at this year’s Cereals with visitors able to take part in an interactive demonstration of the new CCI 1200 terminal on a Kuhn Axis fertiliser spreader simulator. The new CCI 50 and CCI 1200 terminals, which replace the VT 50 and CCI 200, have been developed through Kuhn’s participation and membership of the CC-Isobus Association of which Kuhn is a founding member and are designed to operate across the company’s range of arable and grass harvesting machinery. The new Kuhn CCI 50 Isobus terminal is a significant upgrade over the outgoing VT 50 as it now features a 14.3cm touchscreen display and is compatible with a wider range of operating applications including section control. The new terminal features a scroll and selection wheel for main function control, plus 12 back-lit function keys, an auto-brightness sensor, and ports for video input, USB data transfer, GPS antenna input and biomass sensor input. The CCI 1200 is also a significant upgrade over the outgoing CCI 200: the new terminal features a large 30.5cm

touchscreen display which can be used either horizontally or vertically and is easy to view in direct sunlight. The unit’s flexible layout display can be configured to suit the individual operator’s preferences or machine’s requirements and has been designed to be easy to use. A split screen function enables the operator to view and control two machines in tandem, while the option to display several mini-view windows enables the operator to monitor multiple parameters at once. The CCI 1200 features two USB ports for data transfer, uploading application maps and charging external devices such as mobile phones as well as an auto-brightness sensor and video input port.

Future-prooﬁng farming businesses Demonstrations of how farmers can help to future-proof their businesses by adopting the financially, agronomically and ecologically sustainable Claydon Opti-Till crop establishment system will be given by Claydon at Cereals 2018. With the agricultural sector facing considerable uncertainty it is vital to reduce crop production costs significantly, establishment offering one of the largest areas to achieve savings. The most versatile option on the market, Opti-Till, dramatically reduces time, fuel, labour and wearing metal costs; it is five times faster and three times cheaper than ploughbased techniques, less than half that of a min-till system, claims Claydon. Moreover, Opti-Till provides the ideal machinery mix to quickly, efficiently and cost-effectively establish any crop that can be air-sown, creating the optimum amount of tillage for all soils and conditions, it says. In addition to the Claydon TerraStar, Straw Harrow and TerraBlade which are used for stubble and weed management, the Opti-Till range also includes mounted and trailed drills from 3–8m, together with

Cambridge rolls, all of which have been designed with a minimum of wearing and moving parts to keep operating costs low, it explains. The high output of the Opti-Till system means that timeliness is greatly improved, so owners can comfortably wait for optimum conditions before drilling, which creates better structured and more fertile soils, it adds. The risk of erosion, water run-off and leaching of nutrients is much reduced in soils that are better able to cope with extreme weather events. Crops develop strong and healthy, while worm and bird populations thrive. The patented leading tine fitted on all Claydon drills moves soil only in the seeding and rooting zone, loosening compacted ground, allowing water to drain away from the seed and creating a fine tilth which encourages roots to grow deep and strong. Plants take-up moisture conserved in the unmoved soil between the rows, which has sufficient strength to support following machinery such as sprayers and spreaders throughout the year, even in adverse weather conditions. What makes Claydon products

Complete precision farming solution Drone technology being demonstrated here by Agrovista agronomist Craig Green, plays an important role in the company’s precision farming service.

•

The complete precision farming solution from national agronomy services business Agrovista, offers UK growers access to unrivalled precision farming advice, supported by a range of hardware and software tools to make full use of new and existing equipment to maximise margins, says the company. Agrovista groups all its precision agriculture activities under the Plantsystems banner, and reckons it can help provide significant assistance with the following: • NPK management • Soil mapping and zoning • Variable seed rates

Consistency and traceability of soil sampling • Potato cyst nematode (PCN) sampling • Hardware and software selection • Compatibility issues • Integrating data from yield maps to make management decisions • Yield map reports and interpretation The company says that its dedicated precision farming consultants will assess individual farm business needs and tailor solutions – ensuring growers receive the most appropriate advice and technology for their specific requirements. Backed by one of the largest R&D-led agronomy teams in the UK, Agrovista says that it provides impartial and integrated precision agronomy services that benefit farmers. For a free telephone consultation and more information, farmers should contact their local Agrovista agronomist, adds the company. Stand 492

The history of land drainage The history of land drainage is as old as agriculture itself and dates from as far back as Roman times, says Miles Drainage. Early attempts at drainage were mainly in the form of surface water drainage achieved with ditches, and ridge and furrow, but gradually during the 17th century underdrainage was introduced. These early drains were formed by trenches backfilled with stone or bushes, but towards the end of the 18th century clay tiles and bricks were used to form a hollow drain, it explains. Initially these practices were expensive due to a tax imposed in 1784, which rose to five shillings (25pence) per thousand pipes. In 1826 however, this tax was removed from tiles used for drainage, subject to the tiles having the word “Drain” stamped on them. Many of the old systems still work today, but their performance

is usually inadequate and so they have been, or need to be, replaced by modern drainage systems, often using shingle backfill and mole draining as a secondary treatment, says Miles Drainage. The company will be exhibiting its trailed single leg mole plough at Cereals 2018. The mole plough is available in both standard and high clear beam, the latter being available with a pitch adjuster, it says. The company recommends using the following sized tractors: Track Layers - 150hp or more. Wheeled Tractor - 200hp or more. Based in East Anglia but operating nationwide, Miles Drainage provides a GPS-based land drainage design and installation service to agricultural, equestrian and sports field customers. The company manufactures the single leg mole plough, in addition to supplying spares and wearing parts. ■

Six new varieties and products to boost root health Six new cereal varieties are to be unveiled by Syngenta at this year’s Cereals. The launches include two winter wheat varieties – a potential new bread-making Candidate variety, SY Medea, and a new high-yielding hard Group 4 feed wheat, Gleam. Added to the AHDB Recommended List for 2018/19, and due for launch for this autumn, Gleam combines high yield with robust resistance to septoria tritici, said Syngenta seeds campaign manager, Tracy Creasy. “As septoria tritici has become more difficult to control, growers have increasingly turned to growing more resistant varieties,” said Mrs Creasy. “As well as high yields, Gleam provides a minimum resistance rating of 6.2 against septoria tritici on the AHDB Recommended List.” Other benefits include good resistance to rusts and early maturity, she added. With the growth in popularity of high-yielding hybrid winter feed barley, Syngenta will also feature plots of five Hyvido varieties on its stand – including unveiling its two newest hybrids added to the AHDB

Recommended List for 2018/19, Belmont and Libra. The company will also be exhibiting its line-up of winter and spring malting varieties – including two new high-yielding winter malting varieties added to the AHDB Recommended List for 2018/19, Electrum and Coref. “With a UK treated yield of 111per cent, new hybrid Belmont takes yields on the AHDB Recommended List up another notch,” says Syngenta seeds campaign manager, Mark Bullen. “Meanwhile, Libra is the best hybrid barley for specific weight that we’ve ever bred.” Another theme from the company at this year’s event is increasing access to soil resources by improving root health. “Healthier roots are essential to enable crops to fully utilise what the soil has to offer,” said Mr Bullen. “As well as providing a larger surface area for absorbing water and nutrients, deeper roots can aid plant vigour and drought tolerance and, ultimately, support higher outputs. “It’s been suggested that a decline in root density is behind the current

plateauing of wheat yields.” Since last autumn, Syngenta has been collating root growth results from farms around the country where its new SDHI-based fungicide seed treatment, Vibrance Duo has been used. Launched in the UK from last autumn, for use on seed of winter wheat, winter triticale, winter rye and spring oats, Vibrance Duo is intended for control of establishment diseases such as seed borne fusarium, said Mr Bullen, but it has also shown clear root enhancing effects. “Latest on-farm results have been fantastic. Root mass has been

increased to as much as double that seen with a standard triazole fungicide seed treatment. “Good crop establishment is about more than simply improving above-ground emergence. It’s also about setting up the crop to put down healthy root structures to get the most out of the soil,” he said. “With practices such as delayed winter wheat drilling to help reduce black-grass populations now commonplace, finding new ways to help these later-drilled crops establish in colder soils has gained added significance.” ■ Stand 619

Disc harrows offer ﬂexibility DESIGNED FOR ALL AGRICULTURAL LOADERS

Disc harrows can offer farmers flexibility when creating stale seedbeds.

Both 3 and 5m disc harrows will be on display at the Cereals event, Bullock Tillage has announced. Disc harrows can offer farmers the flexibility to create a stale seedbed at a shallow depth of 1.2cm for black-grass control, and, when conditions are suitable, can cultivate to a maximum depth of 14cm, the company explains. As a result, they are a popular and versatile cultivation option for arable farmers in the UK, it says. The lighter duty Bullock Tillage (BT) disc harrows have three working elements: two rows of 560mm discs, levelling harrow and full width packer help create a level, uniformed finish, ideal for weed seed and volunteer growth, it claims. In addition, side panels to avoid ridging and road lighting come as standard, points out Bullock Tillage. For narrow working conditions,

widths of 1.50, 1.75 and 2.00m are available in addition to 3, 4, 5 and 6m widths with the option of semi mounted or fully-mounted versions, it says. Moreover, the 3m disc harrow comes with a hydraulic lift attachment seed applicator which can be mounted and lowered to ease filling, and is ideal for cover crop or grass seeding, says Bullock Tillage. The company also has heavy-duty BTC disc harrows which come in working widths of 3, 5 and 6m. The 5 and 6m versions are trailed with the transport wheels mid-mounted between the discs and the hydraulic levelling board and packer. Depth control is hydraulically adjustable and the transport wheels have both brakes and suspension as standard, it adds. ■ Stand 909

surface, this implement is also effective on oilseed rape and maize stubbles, to encourage the breakdown of cover crop vegetation, and for controlling slugs,” says Spaldings product development manager Paul

Denton. Geacut’s high working speed capability is partly due to the way each of the rollers is connected to its frame by a patent-pending assembly incorporating rubber ‘doughnuts’ acting as shock

Precision drill updates for 2018 Worcestershire based manufacturer Mzuri is to launch its 2018 Pro-Til drill specification at Cereals this month. It will also be showcasing its Razorback rotary hedgecutter – the latest addition to its product range. Visitors to the Mzuri stand will be able to see a whole host of new features for the Pro-Til one pass striptill drill range which, combined, increase efficiency and award the equipment ultimate versatility and ease of use, the company says. The 2018 specification features a new seeding coulter frame and arm assemblies which make the drill a fully modular machine suitable for most crops and conditions. It allows for the attachment of standard seeding coulters for use in strip tillage mode, as well as quick and easy integration of Xzact precision seeding units which turn the striptill drill into a one-pass precision seeder. The seeding coulters themselves have also been updated to increase seeding depth accuracy and to reduce soil disturbance. A new

Mzuri’s 2018 edition Pro-Til 3T Xzact will be available to view at Cereals.

coulter leg geometry and layout offer reduced metal wear with the seeding coulters being quicker and easier to fit, which will save time and money says Mzuri. The 2018 Pro-Til also features a high-volume fan which increases drill responsiveness, seed distribution efficiency and gives faster seed shut-off when engaging the toolbar in and out of work. Another advantage of the new fan is its lower tractor oil and power requirement, the company says. Furthermore, the new Pro-Til build features a revamped seeding tank which allows faster and easier seed drainage and is camera and LED light kit ready. The latest seed metering motors use waterproof fittings and corrosion guard paint for added longevity. Fully Isobus compatible, the drills are available with an optional plug and play lead for direct connection to the tractor Isobus terminal. The interface allows users easier access

to features such as headland shut-off and variable rate application. This year’s drill specification also features a DIN mount fit hitch which allows users to easily change tractor drawbar couplings. Mzuri will also be showcasing the Razorback Auto-Level 550 – a vertical-axis rotary hedgecutter with revolutionary self-levelling Co-Pilot technology. The company claims that the new machine can carry out the job in half the time compared with conventional flail counterparts, while leaving a much cleaner cut. The

operation costs are also significantly reduced due to the Razorback’s lower power requirement and maintenance costs. The Razorback features smart Auto-Level Co-Pilot technology which ensures that the main frame of the machine remains level at all times, irrespective of the tractor angle in relation to the undulating ground. This unique feature gives a smooth finish regardless of the terrain, making for a more comfortable experience. ■ Stand 940

Growth in sales of front mounted tanks

p The Team Arian2 Sprayer with front mounted sprayer tank. t Units are quick and easy to mount, says Team Sprayers.

Rotationally moulded plastic front mounted tanks are designed to increase spraying capacity and therefore, productivity, says

British sprayer manufacturer Team Sprayers. Available in a range of sizes from 600–1500 litres, the units are quick

and easy to mount and demount from the tractor and are fitted with quick release couplings on all liquid and hydraulic hoses, it explains. In addition, in-cab controls allow fast transfer of liquid to the rear tank during the spraying operation, it says. “We have definitely seen an increase in demand for front mounted tanks alongside our rear mounted sprayers, the Arian2 and Sigma, both overseas and in the UK,” says Team Sprayers managing director Danny Hubbard. “Farmers are using a spare tractor and linking up a rear mounted sprayer and a front

mounted tank and leaving them on for the whole season. “A 1,500 litre front mounted tank used in conjunction with our largest sprayer, the Arian2, gives farmers as much as 3,300 litre capacity on a tractor mounted sprayer. “GPS is available on all our sprayers, so the overall performance rivals a self-propelled sprayer, yet at a quarter of the cost.” In addition to having its own stand at Cereals, Team Sprayers will be demonstrating its Arian2 mounted sprayer with a front mounted tank in the Syngenta Sprays & Sprayers Arena on both days. ■ Stand 803

Eco No-Till seed drill.

Lighter no-till drill reduces compaction threat Using a tine coulter rather than a disc makes Eco No-Till seed drills stand out from most other no-till drills , according to Dale Drills. Director James Dale explains: “Disc coulters need a lot of weight to hold them into work due to their rotating motion. This tends to result

in heavier drills as well as wider row spacings as manufacturers struggle to get enough weight per coulter. “Our Eco range of tine drills avoids the need for any additional weight due to its forward-facing design ‘pulling’ the coulter into work. This allows us to produce seed drills

which are up to 30 per cent lighter, an important factor in a no-till system where compaction needs to be avoided at all costs.” The drills also come with more coulters creating a narrower row spacing and therefore producing more competitive crops to reduce

weed pressures, he adds. “Each pair of tine coulters is mounted via a parallel linkage while being followed by a depth setting press wheel. This ensures very even depth control and responsive contour following.” ■ Stand 957

Latest cultivators and drills on display Four new product offerings from Horsch will receive their UK launch at Cereals including the latest Serto 12 SC drill and the Cruiser 6 XL cultivator. The new Serto SC is a compact seed drill for large farms with working widths of 10m and 12m. It features an all-over tyre packer combined with a heavy double-disc seed coulter. Two seed coulters run behind every tyre with a row spacing of 16.6cm, similar to the well-proven Pronto system, and the all-over packer lowers horsepower requirement and saves fuel. The company’s new parallelogram coulter features large bearings and is designed for stability and durability. It is ideal for difficult conditions and ensures safe seed placement even if the seedbed is rough says Horsch. Meanwhile its new 5m and 6m Cruiser XL trailed cultivator fills the gap between the 3-point linkage mounted models and the 10m and 12m trailed versions. With its six bars, the Cruiser mixes and distributes excellently and a 700mm frame height ensures even large quantities of organic material are not an issue. The cultivator can be equipped with four different cultivation points making it ideal for stubble cultivation with optimum straw distribution after combining, seedbed preparation, as a fine cultivator for mechanical weed control or for loosening and venting the soils in spring. A wide range of single and double packers are available. Also on display is the new Pronto NT drill. Available in 6m, 8m and 9m working widths, the NT features the TurboDisc double-disc coulter at 20cm row spacing in combination with a compact, leading wavy disc, making it ideal for mulch and direct seeding. Operational speeds up to 20kph allow for a high area output even at smaller working widths. Horsepower requirement is low as the wavy discs cut through organic material and cultivate the soil only in the seed rows, creating a fine earth in the seed horizon says Horsch. The necessary weight for operation of the wavy discs and seed coulters is transferred via the sophisticated hydraulic system of the machine. In very hard conditions, additional weight up to 1,400kg can be mounted on the frame.

The Terrano GX is a new model in the Terrano family with 4–6m working widths with 3- or 4-bar versions with a tine spacing between 28.5–31.5cm. The GX is equipped with the third generation TerraGrip, with its spring located in the frame and a 550kg release force with large and maintenance-free pivot points that guarantee a long service life. The cultivator can be equipped with four cultivation point options from intensely mixing to merely loosening for a wide variety of conditions. A wide range of single and double packer is available. The Express KR on display at Cereals features Horsch‘s SingularSystem, making it the first singulation drill for wheat, barley, OSR and peas at speeds of around 12kph. The SingularSystem uses the Funck metering technology to enable precise seed application. Seed is drawn from a main hopper via a central volume metering unit. This pre-metered seed is pneumatically conveyed to the respective seed row. Up to the coulter, the seed supply is carried out in a conventional way without any modifications to the standard seed drill. The new TurboDisc coulter body includes the mounted metering unit necessary for singling and placing in the soil and has been designed to achieve high singling accuracy. An operational speed of 1012kph is important to maintain performance. The new single grain metering unit is able sow a single grain twice per second, or 120Hz, resulting in a seed density of 240 grains per square metre at 12kph with a row spacing of 15cm. Inside the metering unit the seed flow follows a circular path where the grains increase in speed and move to the outer part of the metering disc. One is then selected for the fall tube. The remaining grains are transported back to the starting point and small heaps and gaps in the volumetric seed flow can be minimised. This interaction of volumetric metering and the singling metering unit is controlled by the on-board electronic system. The operator only has to enter the desired quantity of grains per m2, the thousand-grain weight and the germination capacity and the system calculates the metering quantity. ■ Stand 502

Tile extends working life of wear parts Ferobide complements conventional tungsten.

Distribution rights for Ferobide, a weldable tungsten tile used to extend the working life of soil engaging wear parts, were taken over by JSP Agri (Stewart Peckitt) from December 2017, Tenmat has announced. Ferobide is readily weldable using mild steel rods or wire and as such is appropriate for use by manufacturers through to end-users in farm workshops, explains the Manchester based company. Moreover, ongoing trials on packer scrapers have been reported to increase the working life by twenty times, claims Tenmat, adding that current end-users have indicated significant savings in both the cost of wearing parts and downtime. It is ideally suited on scrapers,

shins, the sides of legs and placed behind conventional tungsten, it says, adding that if no stones are present Ferobide also works well on the tips of points and leading edges. The product is available in various sized tiles and in three thicknesses depending on the specific requirement, it notes. Customer Tim Basey-Fisher, from Beccles, Suffolk says: “Ferobide has cut wearing costs on heavy cultivation by 50 per cent.” Northumberland-based Roger Dickenson says: “Ferobide ensures the packer runs clean so it is easier to pull, and therefore saving diesel. Also, we are not transporting black-grass from farm to farm”. Interest in Ferobide is not solely UK based, the company says, pointing out that trials have been successfully conducted in France, Holland, Poland, USA, and Canada, and are ongoing in New Zealand, Egypt and Africa. JSP Agri are seeking to appoint agents and distributors for both the home market and abroad, it says. ■ Stand 956

The Tempo L 18 will be shown at Cereals 2018.

New high-speed drill Swedish manufacturer Vaderstad has added a new model to its highspeed planter Tempo L series. The Tempo L 18 precision drill will be available with row spacing down to 500mm, making it ideal for planting crops such as oilseed rape and sugar beet. It has 18 row units and is available with 500mm or 508mm row spacing. It can be adjusted down from 18-12 row units and when in the 12 row configuration the spacing can be set between 700 and 800mm. This makes it ideal for crops such as maize, and sunflower says Vaderstad. The drill is able to plant at a very high speed, without compromising the precision and accuracy. Tempo L can be equipped with a 5,000-litre fertiliser hopper. The fertiliser is metered via the high capacity metering system Fenix III. The metering capacity for fertiliser is up to 350kg/ha at 15kph.

The electric driven Fenix III has the capability to adapt the fertiliser rate to varying field conditions by using a variable rate system. The high capacity fertiliser system maintains the high precision even at high speed. Tempo L is equipped with hydraulic wing pressure compensation which transfers weight from the inner section of the machine to its outer wings. This enables the machine to respond to irregularities on the field and ensures even emergence. The iPad-based control system, Väderstad E-Control wirelessly delivers data about each seed that travels through the machine, including seeding quality, skips, doubles, seed spacing, and rate. Operators benefit from user-friendly remote set up and calibration, as well as easy, realtime monitoring and control says the manufacturer. Stand 500

Addressing issues associated with zero-till in the UK The trailed Advantage will be on display at Cereals.

A new generation disc/tine cultivator, the trailed Advantage, will be exhibited at Cereals, Tillso has announced. Designed to address issues associated with zero-tillage in UK conditions the machine creates a well conditioned, firm seedbed suitable for

direct drilling, and its non-aggressive action promotes long-term soil fertility, claims the company. The trailed machine has better weight transfer than the mounted machine leading to increased traction, it claims, adding that carrying the weight on the drawbar and the rear Diamond ring roller gives better consolidation and a more level finish, including on headland.

Direct drilling made easy With margins likely to be squeezed even tighter over the coming years many farmers are looking at ways of reducing costs, whilse maintaining output. Cheaper methods of crop establishment and conservation agriculture are now seen as playing an essential part in solving these problems. However, farmers wishing to follow this path can find it difficult

to implement and sustain due to our unpredictable climate and a lack of information and guidance says Simtech Aitchison. The company has been producing its T-Sem drills for more than a decade. The 14 models range from 3-8m with fertiliser options for all models. Simtech’s Simon Clarke said: “The T-Sem is the economic and versatile solution to starting with

Vertical tillage discs spaced at 150mm chop residue and weaken hard crust, allowing moisture to penetrate in dry conditions, explains Tillso. In damp conditions they create air movement in the top layer, which helps the soil to warm up, and promotes the creation of soil fissures, it says. Two rows of Sabre tines restructure the main rooting zone, helping remove compaction produced by annual traffic, says the company, noting that the tines create an even soil density across the width, while leaving the soil profile intact. The action lifts and cracks the soil,

creating vertical fissures and columns which support traffic, unlike more aggressive tines which leave soil vulnerable to re-compaction, it claims. The Advantage delivers noninversion restructuring; weed seeds and pathogens from the previous crop are left on the surface, not buried in the soil. The soil profile is maintained with fine particles on the surface and coarser particles below, says Tillso. Moreover, the trailed Advantage is the ideal platform to mount applicators and a fertiliser tank/ hopper, it adds. ■ Stand 936

requirement and ability to work in all non-direct drilling situations, you’ve got the whole package.” Stand 952

High-yielding varieties with easy management KWS will use this year’s Cereals event to highlight its range of crops that fulfil farmer demands while enjoying broad market appeal. “We are in the midst of a shift in the way growers are assessing a variety’s suitability for their farm. Yield potential is taken as a given, but growers want better disease resistance and competitive growth habits that extend the drilling window,” explains KWS cereals & sales manager, Will Compson. To support growers with this ambition, KWS will showcase its range of varieties such as KWS Zyatt and KWS Siskin, the high-yielding quality wheats with some of the best septoria resistance on the AHDB Recommended List (RL). Since receiving recommendation, KWS Zyatt has received great interest among millers and growers. “Zyatt arrived as the highest yielding Group 1 with excellent all-round disease resistance, especially to septoria tritici, which partly explains its very high untreated yield. What marks it out as a resilient breadmaking wheat however, is its early maturity which is crucial to protecting grain quality. Growers

understand this and enjoy getting in to it early.” At just one day later to mature is KWS Siskin, another quality wheat that has proven popular among growers for its combination of high yield and strong disease resistance. “Siskin has proved popular across the UK because of its reliable yield performance and robust disease resistance which growers have used to manage spray workload and fungicide costs. We expect it to be the most popular variety in the UK this autumn,” says Mr Compson.

Biscuits are back Biscuit wheats have seen a resurgence in recent years with impressive market premiums capturing growers’ attention. Leading the Group 3 sector is KWS Barrel with a UK-wide yield of 103 per cent, but a barn filling 107 per cent of controls in the north. “KWS Barrel is the most popular Group 3 among growers and endusers. The indications are that it will continue to be so next year,” he says. Quality types are not for all growers however, and those looking for a high-

yielding feed wheat should consider KWS Kerrin, he says. “A Santiago cross, it is higher yielding than its parent and offers a better all-round combination of disease resistances, especially to septoria tritici. For growers looking for the ultimate level of yield, Kerrin will be their first choice.” Among its feed wheat will be KWS Jackal, a soft feed recommended for the north with approval as a distilling variety. “KWS Jackal is the highest yielding soft feed on the RL and so will attract the interest of those in the east as well as the north. There is also likely to be interest from some bakers across the east and midlands following baking trials which found it performed well in the grist with other soft wheats,” adds Mr Compson. For those looking for varieties suited to late-autumn drilling KWS Crispin will appeal strongly. KWS Crispin is a hard feed that is the logical choice for those looking to sow after late-lifted sugar beet or maize. Among the oilseed rape plots will be KWS’ first hybrid oilseed rape,

KWS Siskin.

Hunivers. “Hunivers is the first of a new generation of oilseeds from KWS. Up for east/west recommendation this autumn, it has an attractive package of yield potential combined with good resistance to light leaf spot and phoma stem canker and is earlier to flower and mature than any other variety in the KWS stable,” says KWS oilseeds manager Julie Goult. ■ Stand 432

New imports for machinery ﬁrm Slurry equipment from Veenhuis and material handling products from Perard will now be available from TWS. With many years’ experience in slurry and digestate management and spreading, TWS was looking for forward thinking spreading equipment that tackles the challenges faced with liquid manures. From ground compaction, nitrogen loss, throughput, reliability and accuracy of application, TWS arrived at a point where the Dutch firm Veenhuis answered all of those problems. The Veenhuis range offered some innovative approaches, not only with its low emission spreading

This high capacity machine will change the way agricultural goods are transported on the road, says TWS, with one field side unit enabling tractors and trailers to transfer to efficient safe road based lorries, reducing the need for large fleets of tractors. Perard also offers a range of muck spreaders complete with Isobus control and dynamic weigh cell technology. ■ Stand 962

The Veenhuis Rotomax is an umbilical system that reels the pipe in and out as it goes, offering a plug and play system with reduced field, crop and pipe damage, whilst maintaining high outputs. We offer all types of umbilical injection equipment, together with tanker systems from 10m3 to 30m3, with state of the art ‘real-time’ automatic nutrient controlled dosage to manual control, we offer the complete range.

Sprayer demos for ﬁrst time Finance specialist celebrates The John Deere R4050i PowrSpray.

Featuring a new solution system, a larger 5,000-litre capacity spray tank and a lightweight but strong carbon fibre boom, John Deere’s R4050i self-propelled sprayer will be demonstrated for the first time at Cereals 2018. With spraying widths of 18 or 36m, the boom is considerably lighter than steel or aluminium designs. However, the carbon fibre material used in its construction is around five and a half times stronger than steel and able to flex.

The carbon fibre boom is specially designed to withstand the high dynamic loads created at high application speeds of 20-30kph, even with very wide booms. The sprayer is also equipped with the John Deere GreenStar 3 2630 touchscreen display with full FieldDoc spray documentation and Isobus compatibility. It comes AutoTrac ready and with a free JDLink Ultimate subscription for one year. Its PowrSpray solution system features a dual-circuit design with two solution pumps. A new, purpose-designed waterproof keypad and digital display at the sprayer’s operator station enable full control of automated filling, spraying and agitation. Stand 716

Triple-layered oilseed rape options A new triple-layered highperformance oilseed rape with sowing to harvest disease and yield protection will be previewed at Cereals, DSV has announced. “Our triple-layered varieties are designed to set a new benchmark for agronomic performance and growing security in oilseed rape,” explains DSV marketing and sales manager Sarah Hawthorne. “The idea is to provide growers with lower input, lower maintenance varieties that are relevant to farming in the future without the level of fungicides and agronomic interventions currently used. “As such, they will be the first varieties commercially available in the UK to combine multiple characteristics such as RLM7+,

TuYV resistance and pod shatter alongside other agronomic benefits while maintaining the highest yields and oil content possible.” The approach has been developed in response to the neonicotinoid ban and the general move away from high input management, she adds. “We are effectively using breeding to ensure the varieties have as much yield resilience and disease protection built in so genetics increasingly do the job that the sprayer did previously.” The varieties share the same foundation of vigour and yield delivery as Incentive 45 and will sit alongside DSV’s growing portfolio of Clearfield varieties, says the company.

Tanker display reflects differing specification options Two Hi-Spec 2600 SA-R (Single Axle – Recessed) tankers were on display at this year’s Grassland UK to reflect the options available to meet differing user requirements, Hi-Spec reports. Both show models on display were fitted with 800/65-R32 Alliance 181 A8 tyres, says the company, noting that the axle was fitted with commercial brakes. The first of the models on display at the event had a simple sight tube and a 15cm Autofill system operated using a single double-acting spool valve. It was fitted with an Agquip 7m wide dribble bar, mounted on a quick release A-frame, says Hi-Spec. The second tanker on display had air/hydraulic brakes and porthole

Coping with stress and mental illness Farmers and agricultural workers are notorious for a lack of reflection concerning their own mental health and well-being, says Essex-based psychotherapist and hypnotherapist Louisa Andreas. The levels of reported depression in this industry are high but are hideously low in relation to the true numbers, she comments, and this reflects on the increasing suicide rates in this occupational group. “Stress is a key element in many reported injuries and illnesses,” she explains. “Stress can come from fluctuations in the market place, livestock depletion from disease, a poor harvest or matrimonial challenges. In addition, working alone with nobody to talk to, can lead to despair.” The stigma attached to what mental health means, imprisons some farmers in their suffering to the point that they can believe suicide is the only way out, points out Louisa. “Being a psychotherapist and hypnotherapist for many years now, I hold certain “coping tools” for people in many areas. Once taught how to use these tools, they keep people focused on progressing forward and going about their work and life with a happier disposition. “If a crop is not growing well you would consult a professional. So farmers should class themselves as that crop that needs consultation to further progress. “Pick up a phone, talk to a friend. You can also ring many advice lines. “When you hit rock bottom, walk sideways until you gain the energy to go forward, in the right direction,” she concludes. Louisa can be contacted on email: louisaandreas@hotmail.com.

style sight glasses at the rear of the tanker in addition to a sight tube. For filling, in addition to the 15cm autofill system, the tanker had a sliding top hatch fill system with ladder and Bauer fill points, and internally there was a sand agitator, it notes. Moreover, it points out, for greater visibility on the road, the tanker had four sets of twin ‘Hamburger’ type LED lights fitted on the rear. Other options include a Turbofill high capacity filling system, anti-lock braking, a wide range of dribble bar, trailing shoe or disc injector

applicators and GPS and application monitoring systems, says Hi-Spec. In addition, tankers are available in a demount version that allows the chassis to be used out of season with other bodies, such as the Hi-Spec Kompactor Push-Off trailer, it says.

The whole range of Hi-Spec SA-R (Single Axle - Recessed) tankers has capacities going from 6,137–13,784 litres. All models are built from 6mm thick British steel, are fitted with a Jurop vacuum pump and incorporate internal implosion rings, adds Hi-Spec.

Hope for horticulture post-Brexit It has been estimated that in May 2017 there was a 17 per cent shortfall in seasonal workers, writes Sue Lister (left), consultant and head of agriculture and rural affairs at law firm Thomson Snell & Passmore. At the same time the year before there was a reduction of 4 per cent. The reasons that were put forward for this were that the UK was perceived to be xenophobic and racist by overseas workers following the decision to opt out of the EU, as well as the dropping value of the pound. The impact of this reduction was reported by the press last year to have caused significant food loss with food being left to rot in the fields. We have spoken to a number of our horticultural clients and contacts to find out if their own experiences mirrors the situation being reported in the press. These are their observations: • In the first and into the second quarter of 2017 the shortfall in seasonal workers was

•

considerably higher than 17 per cent and reached levels as high as 25 per cent Numbers did pick up in the second half of 2017 and in the first quarter of 2018 the supply of seasonal labour does not appear to be disastrous as they have seen regular seasonal workers returning to the UK to work There has been a significant reduction in seasonal workers from Poland. Polish workers however are being replaced by Lithuanian, Bulgarian and Romanian workers The initial panic following the announcement that the UK would be coming out of the EU has calmed down a little. There was an initial perception by EU seasonal workers that they may not have work at all and, in some instances, workers fears were heightened by the poor portrayal of the UK in the national press overseas as not wanting migrant labour. And also, some being told by their home countries that if they applied for British citizenship they would lose their homeland status

There is a need to plan ahead to be much more accurate about the number of seasonal workers needed to pick crops because the agency pool of seasonal workers is now smaller.

•

There does however appear to still be an enthusiasm to work in the UK (at the moment) although there is a concern about the possible supply of seasonal workers from September 2018 onwards There is a need to plan ahead much better and to be much more accurate about the number of seasonal workers needed because the agency pool of seasonal workers is now definitely smaller A number of growers are already paying seasonal workers above the national minimum wage, but they felt that they were likely to have to pay higher wages. There were however other factors impacting on retention and recruitment of seasonal workers such as geographical location and other competitors. One of our clients, a major grower, told us that Amazon had opened a larger depot near to them and had advertised for 4,000 staff. It then

•

took a further 4,000 staff over the Christmas period. They lost staff because Amazon paid more and the work was indoors The general view was that the bigger growers will dominate and continue to get bigger as the smaller growers struggle to cope. This is because bigger growers and co-operatives will be in a better position to pay more and take on the supermarkets. It appears that we are in an age of agricultural revolution with a focus on automation, co-bots and artificial intelligence. We are however realistically 5–10 years away from commercial solutions. 59213

Enhanced service for tractor parts After an upgrade to its e-commerce portal, more than 2,300 products are available to purchase from the Repxpert Tractor Parts Shop, Schaeffler (UK) has announced. A year after launching, the site now boasts a cleaner layout and is easier to navigate around, resulting in a more positive customer experience, says the company. One of the functions is an up-todate and accurate product catalogue; there are over 1,000 LuK RepSet references to choose from, including transmission bearings, loose discs, single and dual covers, flywheel bearings, front PTOs and dampers, explains Schaeffler.

Additionally, there is a new and growing range of Ina front end auxiliary drive (FEAD) kits. Depending on the application and design, each box can contain specific multi-ribbed belts, tensioner and deflection pulleys, as well as overrunning alternator pulleys, it adds. Individual components and complete solutions make up a product portfolio that is available to buy directly from the Tractor Parts Shop and receive the next working day, claims Schaeffer. To find relevant parts, if the user knows the part reference it can be entered into a specific search bar;

for more detailed searches, the user can source the most appropriate part number by checking the vehicle, product group or original equipment manufacturer (OEM) number, says the company. Searches can also be done using dimensional or technical aspects under product details, it adds. New members will receive a 10 per cent discount off their first order, and, like all registered users, have access to an array of additional services such as workshop pricing and training, says Schaeffler. In addition, they will have access to a dedicated technical support hotline, free and online technical tips and fitting guides.

Ina FEAD Kit – the belt system repair solution.

“At Schaeffler, we have always focussed on a customer first principle, which is why the recent upgrades are so important in establishing and maintaining a good partnership with our members, as well as agricultural engineers and workshops across the UK,” says Schaeffler tractor manager, Maurice Foot. ■

Grain and feed trade raising money for FCN The UK’s grain and feed merchants are pulling together to raise a target of £100,000 for the Farming Community Network (FCN), by cycling in a relay around the principal feed mills, ports, grain stores and supply trade businesses sites in the UK. “With considerable economic and political pressures on farm businesses, GAFTA (Grain and Feed Trade Association) and other grain and feed organisations, which

are an integral part of UK farming community, have committed to do something significant to support the farming industry,” explains one of the organisers, Richard Cooksley. “The aim of the relay is to help raise awareness of the issues facing farmers, while at the same time raising funds to provide on-going support for all members of the farming community and their families.” All monies raised are being

donated to FCN, a charity that supports the farming community through times of stress, anxiety and depression which can affect both farm households and farm businesses. A team of 400 volunteers, many of who are involved in farming, work with farmers and support them as they seek to resolve their difficulties. Over 6,000 people per year benefit from FCN’s support. The Relay starts outside the Houses

of Parliament on 20th June before embarking on a marathon 3,700-mile journey traversing the length and breadth of England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland, visiting over 170 different sites representing over 75 companies. It finishes at Stoneleigh Park on July 31st. To donate to the fund and support FCN in the invaluable work it does for the industry, go to: www.justgiving. com/fundraising/GAFT. ■

Royal Highland Show

Rural life resplendent at Royal Highland The 178th Royal Highland Show, which will be held on 21–24 June 2018, and staged at the Royal Highland Centre in Edinburgh, is a “once in a year” opportunity to really experience rural life, say organisers. Over 6,000 farm animals and horses on show; comprehensive machinery lines; a dedicated forestry area, award winning farriers’ display and

a busy countryside arena make up some of the key attractions on offer. The Highland Show’s biggest attraction is, without doubt, the exhibition of world class livestock – with more than 6,000 of the finest cattle, sheep, goats, horses and poultry, heading for the Ingliston showground. With generations of continued over...

p In 2017 the Show welcomed a record breaking 190,000 visitors and generated £65m for the Scottish economy. t The Scottish Blackface sheep, one of Scotland’s most iconic native breeds, has been revealed as the ‘hero image’ for the 2018 Royal Highland Show. Pictured are renowned Lanarkshire sheep farmer, Malcolm Coubrough, his daughter Emily and prize-winning ewe ‘Emily’ (named after Malcolm’s daughter), as well as the ewe’s new-born lamb. Malcolm won the Breed Title at the 2017 Royal Highland Show with the ewe.

Laura Green (21) from Corskie Farm, in Morayshire, home to the famous Corskie herd of pedigree Simmentals, has been confirmed as the youngest judge to be selected for this year’s Royal Highland Show.

While the Forestry area and the hugely popular pole climbing is back again for the 2018 show. “There is real customer loyalty to our Show,” says show manager, David Jackson, “with almost two thirds of visitors having attended the Show five times or more, which I think is testament to just how exciting, different and authentic a day at the Show is for everyone. “However, what is equally exciting is the number of people attending for the first time illustrating how the Show is attracting a new audience due to the growing interest in farming, food and rural life. “The Show continues to expand in size and popularity. In 2017 we welcomed a record breaking 190,000 visitors and generated £65m for the Scottish economy.

New heavy-duty diet feeder to be launched at show A new heavy duty ultimate diet feeder, the VF3050, will be unveiled at this year’s Royal Highland Show, Abbey Machinery has announced. The company is in its 8th decade in the farming sector and builds machine technologies to cater for the ‘Total Cow’. The new feeder has a 30-cube capacity with heavy duty augers and comes with Digistar TMR Tracker technology to allow a more scientific approach to diet feeding. This is because it monitors feed intakes, usage, refusals, stocks, animal performance, variances and margins over feed costs, explains Abbey Machinery. Also on display will be a selection of Tandem Tankers and applicator technology which helps get slurry below the crop canopy. Farm yard manure, when applied at the correct levels helps to build humus in the soil, while also adding valuable nutrients and can be done evenly and cost-effectively with Abbey Side Spreaders, the company explains. These machines keep the optimum

Magnet in diet feeder prevents hardware disease Each year, an estimated 12,000 cows are injured by ingesting litter that has entered their feed and another 4,000 cows die as a result of hardware disease, according to livestock feeding equipment manufacturers Trioliet. Netherlands-based Wageningen University looked into the effects of litter, concluding that hardware disease costs dairy farmers approximately €14million (£12m) each year in medical treatment, death and reduced milk production, reports Triolet. The company suggests a solution many dairy farmers are not aware of: magnets in the diet feeder. Farmer Pim Lenferink has found out first-hand that magnets can prevent a great deal of injury. Last year he started using a Trioliet diet feeder with auger magnets for his 135 dairy cows. He was not aware of this product until his dealer explained he could place magnets on the augers, he reports. It was a purchase he does not regret, he says. Mr Lenferink shows his ‘harvest’ on the kitchen table, picking out the

Magnets in the feeder detected around 30 objects in one month.

most striking objects. His collection includes nails, barbed wire and screws along with other, undefinable metal objects. Some have extremely sharp edges and are as long as a ballpoint pen; objects which could most certainly injure a cow. “Within a month we collected around 30 objects,” says Mr Lenferink. “Every day we find sharp metal objects on the magnet. We were so impressed that we immediately installed a magnet on the second auger.”

The company has three types of magnets: auger magnets, magnet rods for a cross conveyor belt or chain and a magnet strip on the discharge chute near the side discharge door and this will be ondisplay at this year’s Royal Highland Show. ■ Farmer Pim Lenferink.

Mounted Sirius 12 sprayer with Isobus control The Sirius 12 mounted field sprayer will be on display at the 2018 Royal Highland Show, Lemken has announced. The machine is available with 900, 1,300, 1,600 and 1,900 litre tank sizes. “The Gemini Front tank fitted with 1,100 litre capacity provides a high output machine,” says Lemken area sales manager for Scotland and the Borders, Kevin Rennie. Boom widths are available with the aluminium SEH boom from 12 – 18m and the RA boom from 20 – 30m. The Sirius 12 features a circulation line and electric single-nozzle valves to ensure precise, individually controllable application, the company explains. The optional electric four-way valve on the suction side makes switching between spraying, suction from an external tank, suction from the front tank and clean water as easy as pressing a button with no need for the operator to dismount, it adds. Combined with the Eltec Pro electric single-nozzle control, the single nozzle valves of the SEH booms can be operated individually or in up to 13 freely definable nozzle groups.

Lemken will be showing the Sirius 12 mounted sprayer along with their well-known tillage and seeding machinery at the Royal Highland Show.

The Megaspray control system can be operated from any IsoBus Universal terminal such as the tractor terminal or CCI 200 or the newly launched CCI 1200, using a standard Isobus interface, says Lemken. The display layout of operating elements can be configured to ensure that farmers are always able to access the most important parameters at a glance and take any

action as needed, such as switching off individual nozzles or adjusting the application rate, adds the company. The Megaspray system is compatible with section control functions on the universal terminal to minimise any overlap in applying crop protection product. A wide range of auxiliaries compatible with the Isobus Aux-N standard can also be used, says Lemken.

In addition, the various functions can again be freely configured in keeping with the operator’s preferences and needs, it adds. The Sirius field sprayer can also be integrated with farm documentation and job management systems; for example, data for specific width sections can be collected and corresponding jobs created for the field sprayer, says Lemken. ■

Durability and strength are among the key benefits of its agricultural machinery, according to Conor Engineering. The popularity of its slurry tanks, agitators, diet feeders, bale wrappers and manure spreaders have made it one of the leading manufacturers of these products in the UK and Ireland, it claims. In recent years, Conor has focussed strongly on slurry and manure equipment and its ability to manufacture highly customised tanks to a very high standard, it adds. There are hundreds of optional extras available for its range of tri-axle tanks which go from 5,000–25,000 litres, says Conor. In addition, the company also manufactures diet feeders and its vertical feeder, which ensures that even the toughest of bales are mixed quickly and efficiently, is the result of extensive field testing, says the company.

The Blade 260 Offset Flail is said to be Weaving Machinery’s most compatible and versatile flail yet.

The new offset flail from Weaving Machinery offers ‘unprecedented’ precision when mowing grass. The Blade 260 will make its debut at upcoming shows, including the Royal Highland and the Royal Welsh. According to Weaving, the new offset flail is the only model of its kind currently on the market, designed for regular jobs such as cutting grass and medium size brash. The completely offset flail prevents the tractor from running over grass before mowing, resulting in a more consistent and clean cut. The hydraulic break back prevents breakage if the flail strikes an obstacle and a centre pivot

contours the ground. “This flail is perfect for stock farmers, arable farmers, or anyone looking for a more precise cut on the first pass,” said Simon Weaving. “This is a truly versatile piece of equipment.” Cutting width is 260cm the Blade 260 is rear tractor mounted with power slew and break back and side skids. It requires a 120hp tractor and is priced at £7,800. “The Blade 260 will be on show at both the Royal Highland and the Royal Welsh, and select other shows through the year,” added Simon. “We’re proud of this flail. It’s the first of its kind. We’re excited to see the industry’s reaction.”

BLUE MEANS VITALITY THE SOLITAIR PNEUMATIC SEED DRILL – VERSATILE FOR UNIVERSAL APPLICATIONS

A new era in precision farming innovation After three years’ development precision farming specialists SoilEssentials is launching a cloudbased platform to help farmers and agronomists to manage land more effectively. The platform, known as KORE, delivers an online precision farming toolbox through a suite of apps, using data to modernise land use. It has a simple, intuitive user interface and can be customised if desired says SoilEssentials. It gives users the ability to work with multiple clients, and see satellite, UAV, soil samples, yield maps, crop yield, soil conductivity and more, in one view. Farms and fields can be viewed individually or all together and problems can be marked and recorded. For crop scouting, users can use low cost, off-the-shelf drones to take high resolution crop imagery. Agronomists, farmers and field staff can fly and upload imagery themselves, you don’t need to be a specialist, it says. Plant counting is then a viable and valuable option to identify and count individual plants from potatoes and sugar beet to vegetables.

Crop cover assessment from a drone identifies and counts the percentage of ground or canopy cover. Satellite and UAV imagery can be viewed via an app when ‘in-field’ so that problem areas can easily be identified. The wider accessibility and affordability of Earth observation data gave way to the initial concept. Partnering with Deimos Space UK and support from the European Space Agency has allowed this dream and vision to become reality, says SoilEssentials: “With such a rapid, changing environment and KORE always evolving, this is just the beginning.” ■

Learning about lucerne

Ben Stroud pictured with some of his cows feeding.

Lucerne has become the star crop at one mixed farm near Melton Mowbray. Sara Gregson paid a visit. Leicestershire mixed arable and dairy farmer Ben Stroud first drilled lucerne in the summer of 2014, into an 11ha field that suffered from terrible blackgrass. Weed control in the first autumn and regular cutting for silage the following spring and summer, soon sorted out the problem. After cutting this year, this field will make way for a new crop of winter wheat. “We drilled the variety Daisy in August after winter wheat into a very good seedbed,” explains Ben. “While lucerne is a very deep rooter – it hates any compaction and we take our time to give it the best start possible.” Soils in the fields at The Grange

are primarily heavy clay. Ben feels sub-soiling the field is essential – something he failed to do the first time he grew it. A shallow seedbed is then prepared in the cereal stubble with discs, before being consolidated with press and Cambridge rolls. The seed is broadcast onto the surface of the soil using a drill that is lifted almost out of work, literally dropping the seed onto the soil. The field is then rolled again. “We spray with fluazifop-P-butyl against cereal volunteers and 2,4-DB to take out any broad-leaved weeds in the autumn,” comments Ben. “Then we treat it with some propyzamide in January, which is still

good against black-grass. The lucerne is dormant over this period and remains unaffected. But the terrible mat of black-grass has gone. When we take the first cut – we can see the base of the sward is very clean indeed. “Establishment costs are slightly higher than for grass, but spreading these over four years growth makes them more sustainable.”

Crops and livestock The 224ha farm grows 142ha of cereals (including wheat and barley) and oilseed rape. It also supports a herd of 170 cows and followers on 82ha of grassland, including 16ha of the red clover Oliver Seeds silage mixture Sabre Hi Pro, which produces high quality, high protein forage. “We are reducing bought-in feed costs by growing more protein crops like the lucerne and red clover and feeding home-grown rolled barley. Our milk goes locally to Long Clawson Dairy for Stilton cheese, so maintaining butterfat and protein content level all year round, is important. The cows are averaging 9,000 litres of milk a year, at 4.2 per cent butterfat and 3.4 per cent protein.

“The lucerne also provides fibre to the total mixed ration which is good for rumen health and allows us to feed more starch. We used to feed straw to increase fibre in the ration, which has no nutritional value, but we don’t any more. “We are feeding up to 9kg of lucerne fresh-weight, from bales, which are 50 per cent dry matter. And the cows love it. “Yield from the lucerne fields has been very consistent. Last season the first year lucerne yielded the same as the third year field at 33t/ha, which gave us approximately 50 round bales/ ha from four cuts.

A 10cm stubble is left to protect the all important growing point of the lucerne plants.

Livestock “When the cows are out grazing for seven months of the year it can be a challenge to keep the milk solids up in late summer. But the consistency of the lucerne in the ration helps maintain milk quality.”

Cutting for silage The leguminous lucerne starts growing in March and receives no other treatment, not even fertiliser, until first cut in mid May. The field is cut with a mower conditioner early in the morning leaving a 10cm stubble to protect the all important growing point of the lucerne plants, and also to allow the young emerging leaflets to flourish. The crop is left to wilt for 24 hours before being rowed up – again, early in the morning to prevent losses due to leaf shatter, as the crop is still moist. In the first year the lucerne yielded 150t of forage from the first two cuts and was placed into clamps and topped up with wholecrop silage – making a well-balanced mix for the cows. But the past two years, Ben has made round bales with it, wrapped in plastic, which gives more flexibility for feeding. The later cuts are less fibrous and have more protein than the earlier cuts. After each of the two first cuts,

30–40t/ha of slurry is applied to give the crop a good dose of phosphate and potash, but only if soil conditions allow. Ben once made the mistake of going in with the tanker when the soil was too wet and the wheelings were visible for the rest of the season. Ben feels that low input lucerne has much to offer arable farmers looking for a rotational crop to improve soil health. “It is amazing to see the roots going down 1m or more into the soil, increasing the vertical channels in the structure and improving drainage. “There are many more worms under the lucerne and, even in the heavier spots, the soil seems much more friable. And the following winter wheat will also benefit from the nitrogen-fixing that has taken place over the previous four years.

Mixed farm “Being a mixed farm we are lucky that we have cows to eat the lucerne – but perhaps on pure arable farms there would be opportunities to market high quality winter forage to others. After the wet winter and late spring, silage stocks are pretty low on most livestock farms – so I am sure there must be demand for high quality forage across the country.” ■

The consistency of lucerne in the ration helps maintain milk quality, says Leicestershire farmer Ben Stroud.

Top tips for growing good lucerne by Oliver Seeds general manager Rod Bonshor • Ensure soil type and situation is suitable for lucerne - it prefers lighter, • • • •

free draining soils It is best to sow into a clean, firm, level seedbed Choose a variety with high winter dormancy rating such as Daisy - this helps with winter weed control Use pre-inoculated seed for ease of handling and sowing Inspect the young crop regularly as it will be very attractive to slugs, pigeons and other pests due to its high protein content

Farmers Guide 25 years ago Chefﬁns collective sale

A preview on the forthcoming 1993 Sprays & Sprayers event was the main feature in June 1993 Farmers Guide. Arranged by Ciba Agriculture at Whittlesford near Cambridge the preview explained that virtually every prestigious name in all aspects of chemical application could be seen at the two day show and advice would be available on set-aside management and growing alternative non-food crops. Airtec; Allman; Berthoud; Evrard; Hardi; Hydro Chafer; Gem; Knight; Landquip and Matrot were among the list of spray machine companies expected at Whittlesford. The latest selfpropelled Matrot M44D sprayer with a 142hp engine, hydrostatic transmission and four steering options had a new specification cab. Several companies had an electronic steering system

which automatically positioned a trailed sprayer drawbar so that its wheels followed the rear tractor wheels. Landquip featured aluminium booms on its range of de-mount, trailed and mounted sprayers. Visitors would also be able to get up-to-date on the latest airassisted sprayers. A Suffolk Show preview detailed some of the entries in the Inventive Farmer Competition which was sponsored by Farmers Guide. Suffolk farmer Dennis Bloomfield entered his front mounted band sprayer made to spray his 50 acres of sugar beet using parts cannibalised from a nine-row sugar beet drill and a web steerage hoe. Rodney Pryke needed a high reach grain bucket so he made one from scrap around the farm, the only cost being £300 for a pair of rams, and Malcolm Thirkettle made a grass harrow by welding tines on to a scrap Caterpillar track. John Hodge traced the history of grain drills in a special feature on the subject. He recalled that Jethro Tull had made a grain drill in the early 1730s, James Smyth was making Suffolk cup feed drills in the early 1800s, soon followed by Richard Garrett at Leiston (in Suffolk) and Robert Hornsby at Grantham, Lincs. Farmers were using Harry Ferguson’s multipurpose seed drill in the mid1950s, cultivator drills and direct drills appeared in the 1970s and tramline kits were readily available by the end of that decade.

Cheffins’ collective vintage sale at Sutton near Ely in April attracted over 3,000 lots, including 212 tractors, which made a total of £1.4 million. The top price was paid for a fully restored 1966 Doe 130, one of about 70 tractors made at Ulting in Essex, sold for £72,975. Roadless and County Ford and Fordson conversions were also in demand. A Roadless 118 fetched £53,550, a Roadless 980 made £31,500 and a 1979 County 7700-Four, from a local farm, sold for a record £25,725. The un-equalled wheel County 7700-Four with a Ford 7700 engine and transmission was made from February 1978 until October 1991. Older models were also in demand with a Marshall Model M selling for £21,000. The Model M, the forerunner of the well-known Field Marshall series tractors, was produced in limited number from 1938 until 1945. The Model M’s horizontal 2-stroke diesel engine, with a 700 rpm maximum speed, produced 22hp at the belt pulley and 14 drawbar horsepower. It had a hand- or foot-operated cone clutch, three forward gears with a 5mph top

speed and one reverse gear. PTO and diff-lock were optional extras. The Brunswick green Mark 1 Field Marshall with silver wheels superseded the Model M in 1945 and, like the Model M, the engine was started by hand with the aid of a de-compression device and a smouldering ignition paper. If all else failed it could be started with a cartridge inserted in the compression chamber. The Series 2 Field Marshall appeared in 1947 followed by the 40 belt horsepower Series 3 in 1949. The ageing Field Marshall was replaced with the Marshall MP 6 in 1956. It had a 70hp, 6-cylinder, 4-stroke Leyland diesel engine, 6 forward gears and 2 in reverse. The PTO and belt pulley were optional extras. ■

The Marshall MP6 found little favour with UK farmers. Fewer than 200 were built, the last one was made in 1960.
