“The Orbital’s output is excellent. I have the ability to keep up with multiple balers thanks to the increase in wrapping speed. I can easily wrap 1,000 bales in a day.” Chris Bartlett has been running a contract wrapping business since 2011, whilst also farming beef cattle and sheep on 100 acres. In 2016, he purchased one of the first McHale Orbital High Speed Round Bale Wrappers in the UK and wraps around 7,500 bales with it each year. Chris was very happy with the performance and reliability of his previous McHale wrappers but wanted to increase output, “I wanted more output, it was as simple as that so hence my reason to buy the McHale Orbital.” Chris told us what he likes about the Orbital, “There are a number of nice features on it; the loading and carrying of a bale saves a lot of time. The Orbital’s output is excellent. I have the ability to keep up with multiple balers thanks to the increase in wrapping speed. The majority of my customers want 6 layers of wrap applied, so when doing this, I can wrap a bale with 6 layers in under 25 seconds. It is a massive improvement for me and my business. I can easily wrap 1,000 bales in a day.” Chris told us that a number of other factors influenced his decision to purchase a McHale Orbital, “McHale machines are well built, last the longest and the proof was in the resale value of my old McHale wrappers. You can’t beat the build quality against other makes so it was an easy decision.”

Out & About Farewell to “a very special man”

In mid-February around 600 friends, customers and colleagues gathered to remember and share their memories of Robert Tomlinson – founder of Tomlinson Groundcare Ltd, Stowmarket, Suffolk – who died at the age of 61. Turn to page 58 for his obituary. In addition, an obituary for founder of RC Boreham & Co, Roy Boreham MBE, who died late last year, appears on p47.

And finally… Two friends applied for jobs at the same firm and were called for interview. The manager asked the first man in and said: “What would you be if you put a hand over one eye?” The first man replied, “Half blind Sir.” “Well done,” the manager replied, “now what would you be if you put your other hand over your other eye as well?” The man thought about it and said, “Totally blind Sir.” 64169

“Congratulations, you’ve got the job,” the manager said. On the way out the first man said to his friend, “There will be two questions; the answers are ‘half blind’ and ‘totally blind’.” So the second man goes in to the office and the manager says; “I’m going to ask you two questions. If I cut off one of your ears what would you be?” Quick as a shot the second man replied, “Half blind.” The manager looked confused but asked, “Ok,

what if I cut off the other ear as well?” “Totally blind Sir,” came the reply. The manager is astounded and asks, “Why would that be?” The second man replies, “Well, me hat would fall over me eyes Sir.” Do you have a joke to share?

MF salutes dealer’s 125-year success Massey Ferguson says it is celebrating the 125th anniversary of one of its longest-serving farm machinery distributors in the UK. With headquarters now based in Brigg, North Lincs, Peacock & Binnington (P&B) was founded in Hull in 1894. By 1898, it was displaying MasseyHarris binders, forerunners to the present day Massey Ferguson, at a local show. Serving famers in Lincolnshire and Yorkshire, today P&B sells the full line-up of Massey Ferguson products including tractors, harvesting machinery and materials handling equipment. The company is one of the MF brand’s top four distributors in the UK by volume sales, and scooped the award for the highest number of MF combine harvester sales in the UK in 2018. In a year of events and activities, the celebrations are being spearheaded by the production of 125 individually-numbered, limited edition Massey Ferguson tractors liveried with 125th anniversary badges and extras such as black bonnets. The tractors are available exclusively to P&B customers who will also receive a glass etched model tractor with the same number as their limited edition life-size machine. Interest in these special machines is already strong with customers requesting to order a specific number from the limited edition. P&B has also produced a “show-stopping” 280hp MF 7726 S in stunning gold livery as a flagship for the anniversary events and exhibitions. Special

promotions will be run at the company’s depots throughout 2019 and the anniversary theme will be highly visible at local shows. “Many congratulations to the P&B team in reaching this 125-year milestone,” says Massey Ferguson national sales manager UK and Ireland, William Judge. “P&B is a strong partner and an exceptional ambassador for the MF brand and its values. With an enthusiastic, highly-driven sales force dedicated to Massey Ferguson, the company is forward-thinking and always ready to take on a challenge.”

A long history

In 1894, Henry Peacock and John Binnington started their agricultural engineering business in West Street, Hull when mechanised farming was in its infancy. Within two years, a further branch was opened at the Old Foundry, in Brigg, Lincs. After that new depots opened to meet a growing customer base and the increasing use of farm machinery. In 1953, the company was presented with a 50year service award by Massey-Harris and, in 1958, was appointed North Lincolnshire distributor for the newly-formed Massey Ferguson. Along with its Brigg HQ, P&B operates branches in Selby, Corringham, Louth and Halsham. The

company employs 135 people and reported a combined total turnover of £63.7m in 2018. Michael Peacock, grandson of Henry Peacock, continues as chairman today and is still actively involved in the business on a daily basis. Michael’s son, Nicholas is vice-chairman – the fourth generation of the family to be part of the P&B operation.

Fertiliser Fragments With the clement weather encouraging topdressing all over the country, most crops will have had their first dressing by the end of February even in grassland areas. This will have encouraged some farmers back into the market to secure further supplies but I suspect immediate deliveries might be difficult. Urea has dropped back in price by up to £40/t over the last month and ammonium nitrate prices have not strengthened, but are likely to do so for March as CF sales have been very active lately. I have said little concerning phosphate recently and perhaps a mention about this element is of value. Johnny Johnson reminds us 6

The good weather will be encouraging topdressing all over the country.

in a recent copy of Potash News that the target indices in soil for phosphate is 2, and that regular soil samples should be taken say every 3–4 years to ascertain levels. Regular organic manure applications will tend to hold up phosphate levels. A recent report on the efficiency of soil and fertiliser suggests that phosphate is not irreversibly fixed in the soil. Phosphate management should be looked at across a rotation as different crops have variable demand. Calcareous soil will hold phosphate as calcium phosphate whereas acid soils will retain phosphate in iron or aluminium form. Concluding, one needs to understand crop requirement alongside soil testing to keep correct levels.

Rugby Ramblings Well, what a disaster England had against Wales. They never seemed to gel as they had done in the previous two games and the kicking was poor as well. I have not yet given up on the possibility of them winning the Six Nations but it could depend on Ireland beating Wales and England winning both their matches against Scotland and Italy, which is quite possible. The first half against Wales was good but the English let them back in during the last quarter. Italy put up a strong response against Ireland and are showing much more promise as a team.

Grain Gossip All grain prices have taken a dive recently with feed wheat down around £8/t to £160/t ex-farm. Full spec milling wheat however has held up to well over £170/t ex-farm. Feed barley has also taken a massive dive to around £130/t ex-farm. There is currently very little demand for either feed wheat or feed barley. Malting barley is also in poor demand. In fact, I could not find any homes for Propino this week. Half of this week’s Egyptian wheat tender (180,000t) was taken by France with the balance split evenly between Ukraine, Russia and Romania. This type of take-up is far from normal. We remain in a strange trading situation at the moment created by the uncertainty of Brexit and current crop predictions. Lack of export from the USA is also affecting world trading. US export sales are down 1.5mt year-on-year and futures prices are looking bearish as both eastern and western winter drilled crops are currently looking good. As always at this time of year supply and demand are often not easy to know or predict.

The NFU Conference 2019 was addressed by Michael Gove who was given a battering by NFU president Minette Batters. This was mainly about ELS and HLS agreement holders still waiting for payments from 2017. The two also clashed on trade prospects for growers and livestock producers when, or perhaps if, we leave the European Union. Indications at the moment are that this is by no means certain to happen. The UK weather is very unseasonal going into a second warm week. I suspect we might yet get a shock of weather change before Easter and for certain we do need some rain. Meanwhile, in Queensland, Australia major rainfall has occurred following months of drought. Around one third of annual rainfall fell in one day and it is estimated that 500,000 head of livestock were drowned, as well as a significant amount of wildlife. Extreme weather conditions around the world seem to be becoming the norm and I suppose we must get used to it.

The Scotland/France match was very ‘bitty’ but France showed much more positivity in their play than in their first two matches, and Scotland played poorly. We now look forward to the final two matches with interest. There is certainly a possibility that Ireland could beat Wales but it will be difficult for them in Cardiff. England should win at home against Scotland and away against Italy. A Grand Slam is not possible but a Six Nation’s win would be a good result.

Oilseed Rape

Managing variable OSR

Carefully tailored winter OSR management will be more essential than ever this spring to cope with massive differences in crop growth and development following an extremely challenging autumn for many. Some crops established reasonably while others recovered from cabbage stem flea beetle attack courtesy of another kind, early winter to come into the spring in decent shape. However, serious flea beetle problems and a bone dry September mean many others are decidedly backward. “Thankfully, most crops haven’t sat in water so far this season so their root development should be quite sufficient to support productive canopies,” reasoned Agrii oilseed rape specialist, David Leaper (right). “At the same time, we know how well OSR, in general, and fast-developing hybrids, in particular, can compensate for even quite substantial setbacks. “This means that for the best performance at the least cost and risk we need to manage every crop for its genetic abilities as well as its current status. More forward crops, for instance, will need less early

nitrogen plus a specialist PGR like Toprex or Caryx at stem extension to maximise their standing ability; especially if they’re inherently tall varieties with less-than-ideal levels of lodging resistance or stem stiffness. Our trials underline the importance of partnering this with a good prothioconazole/tebconazole coformulation for sufficient light leaf spot control. “On the other hand, struggling crops can really profit from a good early nitrogen boost, and the last thing they need is any check as they come into spring growth,” he pointed out. “So, delaying the PGR until green bud or taking advantage of the less stressful growth-regulating effect of extra tebuconazole in the LLS spray might be a better bet.

“To prevent light leaf spot taking off it’s important not to hold back the fungicide to accompany any later PGR here. Otherwise, the disease could have devastating consequences for already struggling crops,” he says.

Similar approach David Leaper suggests a similar spring management approach for crops that look reasonable but are likely to be carrying significant burdens of flea beetle larvae. These are recognised as reducing OSR yields by an average of over 0.5t/ha. But crop compensation means the level of loss doesn’t appear to correlate well to larvae numbers. Recent research in badly-infested trials, for instance, indicates that varieties like DK Exalte and DK Expedient which grow away earliest in the spring suffer noticeably less loss of main stems and stunting than later developing hybrids and conventional varieties. “This makes the type of varieties

To prevent light leaf spot taking off it’s important not to hold back a fungicide in struggling crops to accompany any later planned PGR.

we’re growing an important consideration here too,” he said. “We must give crops with the best ability to compensate all the help they can get to do so. Effectively writing them off because they’re carrying a sizeable larval burden is about the worst thing we can do. It just makes poor performance a self-fulfilling prophecy. “These crops require greater spring management attention to stimulate canopy development and structuring, as well as the most effective protection against both leaf and stem diseases. After all, it has taken us considerable investment to get them this far.” Matching canopy N applications closely to actual GAIs is crucial, in Mr Leaper’s experience. Because they can change so rapidly, he’s equally adamant that applications are based on GAIs measured only once growth has really started rather than too early in the season. In addition to nitrogen, he stresses that OSR is highly susceptible to shortages of sulphur, magnesium and boron, and moderately susceptible to molybdenum and manganese, making it important to avoid imbalances of these nutrients. Agrii tissue testing trial work also shows a clear shortfall of potash in higher yield crops from stem extension. “Actively stimulating the growth of backward crops or those infested with CSFB so they can better withstand the effects of larval damage is also important,” he added. “Six years of our R&D has shown the ability of the growth stimulant, Nutri-Phite PGA to increase OSR canopy size, greenness and yields. In the absence of an autumn application, in particular, we recommend including it with the stem extension spray at 1-litre/ha.” ■

Taking the best overall approach Weed control expert, Barrie Hunt investigates the keys to keeping on top of problem grass weeds in the first of our new series of articles. We know that even the most intractable black-grass, ryegrass and brome problems can be overcome. As can serious challenges from wild oats and even the couch that is again rearing its ugly head in some places. But we have to appreciate that the days of easy chemical solutions are rapidly disappearing for most and long gone for many. Not least with the spread of herbicide resistance and growing pressures on margins. So, if we are to effectively keep on top of grass weeds these days we have to look well beyond the can, stacking cultural controls as much as chemistry. What’s more, we need to do so in ways that are carefully targeted, well-timed and highly tenacious. Whatever the grass weeds we

United we stand

are dealing with, I believe there are five clear principles we must have at the forefront of our minds in securing the reliable, lasting and cost-effective control we need:

Better the devil you know First, it’s essential we know exactly what problems we have and where. If we are to reliably combat grass weeds we need to understand which species we have, what really makes them tick and where they are most vulnerable. At the same time, we need to know precisely where they are in our fields so we can apply well-targeted controls for the best results and value.

Even though today’s chemistry can still be very effective, the rates and combinations of pre- and post-em herbicides required can be prohibitively expensive. Their success is also highly dependent on both the weather and seedbed conditions. That’s why we need to take advantage of every cultural control opportunity we have – from rotations to drilling dates and cultivations to stubble treatment programmes – in a thoroughly integrated way if we are to achieve the sustainable control we want at an input cost we can afford.

Time is of the essence Just as it is with herbicides, when we do things is every bit as important as what we do in our cultural controls. Ploughing can be a big help in getting on top of black-grass, ryegrass and bromes, for instance. But ploughing two years in a row will bring buried seed back to the surface. Poor quality ploughing or ploughing under the wrong conditions can also do more harm than good. Equally counterproductive can be drilling too early even after effective ploughing.

A change is as good as a rest Rather than shoe-horning the most appropriate cultural controls into our existing practice, we must be willing and able to do things differently too. Furthermore, we need to be flexible enough to change what we do to meet the needs of individual fields If we are to effectively keep on top of grass weeds these days, we have to look well beyond the can.

and changing conditions. If we can’t get a good enough seedbed for drilling our wheat in the second half of October or early November, for example, we should switch to a spring crop. And where weed seed burdens are especially high we must be prepared to grow two or more spring crops in a row rather than assuming a single one will do the job.

There’s no quick fix Finally, we have to appreciate the importance of persistence. If we don’t keep up the pressure with the most effective combination of controls, growing herbicide resistance and a declining chemical armoury mean we could rapidly find ourselves back at square one. Its central importance in almost every cultural control strategy means we must also guard against the risk of glyphosate resistance development by employing it in the most effective and integrated ways possible. In my experience, applying these five principles in practical programmes targeting black-grass, ryegrass, bromes, wild oats and couch – as I will be doing, in turn, in this series – is essential to the future viability of the cereal cropping at the heart of most UK arable systems. We fail to do it at our peril. As Roundup technical manager, Barrie Hunt co-ordinates the national on-line resource (www. monsanto-ag.co.uk/grassweedaction) providing the best information and guidance for growers keen to control grass weeds in the most sustainable way possible.

Water Conditioners

Protect spring pesticides from the effects of hard water The solution to hard water is to properly condition it prior to adding the pesticide.

and continues until it dries on the target when the active ingredient is rendered permanently inactive. It is, however, hard water that is the greater threat to performance. Herbicides are the most widely affected, but certain PGRs are also vulnerable. Left uncorrected hard water can de-activate certain herbicides, ultimately reducing the amount of dose of the active delivered by as much as 30 per cent. Popular springtime herbicides such as all those containing sulfonylureas, for example, Atlantis, Pacifica and Cintac (all containing mesosulfuron + iodosulfuron) for grass weed control, Centurion Max (clethodim) and glyphosate for stale seedbeds are all impaired to some extent by the cations in hard water.

Negate the chelates

Water is the primary carrier for applying crop protection products constituting more than 95 per cent of the spray volume. It has many unique properties, but to gain the most from its potential to support pesticide performance means recognising what else it may be carrying and applying the appropriate remedy. In most cases this means adding a suitable water conditioner. A crucial distinction of water conditioners is that they are not about enhancing pesticide performance per se, but about treating the water so that the pesticide is fully available. Hence, they are not classified as adjuvants by the Chemicals Regulatory Division (CRD) of the Health & Safety Executive (HSE). What we overlook when thinking about water is that there is almost always something else dissolved in it. Reservoir and ground water

often contain mineral salts of one form or another, be it carbonates or bicarbonates, which are typically associated with higher pH supplies (pH >8), or sulphates and nitrates of calcium (Ca), magnesium (Mg), iron (Fe), or zinc (Zn), which are typically found in lower pH sources (pH <6). In addition to pH, these mineral salts – called ‘cations’ and ‘anions’ after dissolving – give water the distinctive properties that affect taste and hardness. These naturally occurring soil

minerals are collected as ground water moves through the ground on route to the tap. A greater concentration of cations in the water leads to a higher percentage of herbicide lock-up. In a similar way that limescale forms in a kettle, these salts go through a change of state as the solution dries on the leaf surface taking on a solid form that is unable to penetrate the leaf surface. It is important not to confuse the effects that pH and hard water have on herbicide and fungicide performance. Water with a pH of more than 7 can negatively affect some herbicides, principally carbamates such as phenmedipham, through a process known as alkaline hydrolysis. This is a gradual, but irreversible process and it occurs as soon as the pesticide is mixed

The solution to hard water is to properly condition it prior to adding the pesticide by adding a water conditioner such as X-Change, AquaScope or X-Clude. The cations in hard water form complexes with the chelating agents in the conditioner leaving them unable to bond with the herbicide molecule. This allows the herbicide to remain unaffected in solution and be delivered to the target weeds in the form to which it will perform at its optimum level in a hard water situation. Glyphosate manufacturers, for example, have long supported the use of a water conditioner, such as X-Change to maintain the required level of efficacy, and stewardship guidelines from the Weed Resistance Action Group (WRAG) endorse this position.

It’s hardest in the east The extent of water hardness, particularly in the east of England, was identified in a 2017 survey. All samples collected in the region were classed as ‘very hard’ – found to contain calcium carbonate levels in excess of 300mg/litre of CaCO₃ – with Ipswich found to the town with the hardest water in England at 423mg/ litre CaCO₃. continued over...

This is 44mg/litre higher than Colchester, the second hardest water town in the UK. Boston (363mg/litre), Luton (360mg/litre), Norwich (359mg/litre) and Watford (358mg/litre) are also heavily affected. At these levels the effect of herbicide lock-up cannot be ignored. The extent to which herbicides and some fungicides are negatively affected by hard water can be determined by the strength of its acidity in solution. This is measured using the pKa scale with the lower the pKa value, the more acute the negative effects. Those substances with a pKa value of less than 5 are expected

to be at significant risk from lockup (see Table above for product examples). If you plan to apply the herbicides listed in the table, it is worth considering the use of a water conditioner to ensure as much of the product is available as possible to do its job.

PGR Herbicides are not alone needing a water conditioner to support biological performance; plant growth regulators, principally those containing prohexadione-calcium, namely Canopy, will also benefit because the calcium needs to be released from the prohexadione to work effectively.

Sugar Beet

Virus yellows warning ahead of new beet season BBRO is committed to delivering novel alternative strategies for the control of virus yellows in the future, such as developing varieties with resistance.

Options

Following on from last month’s article in Farmers Guide on growing beet without neonicotinoid seed treatments, Dominic Kilburn attended the BBRO #BeetTech19 conference, Newmarket in Suffolk, where the potential threat of virus yellows was made very clear. Without seed treatment protection, in 7 of the previous 17 years, over 50 per cent of the UK sugar beet crop would have “turned yellow”. That was the stark warning from BBRO’s head of Science, Dr Mark Stevens (right) addressing a packed conference venue in early February. He explained to growers that, for the first time in 25 years, the risk of virus yellows in crops this season was high – with the potential to lose up to 47 per cent yield in badly affected areas. Should any beet grower need reminding, the 2019 crop going in the ground right now is doing so without neonicotinoid seed treatment protection, since the EU restriction on their use in nonflowering crops, as well as flowering, was extended last year. As a consequence, the industry is trying to prevent what could be as much as £51m worth of yield losses in high risk areas from damaging

virus yellows, transmitted by feeding aphids; the peach potato aphid (myzus persicae) being the main protagonist, explained Dr Stevens. “The need for protection has never been higher,” he commented. “I’m increasingly nervous this winter as aphids are being seen in large numbers in brassica and cover crops. Last year we got the ‘Beast from the East’ which consequently brought down aphid numbers to a five-year low. And while use of seed treatments protected sugar beet crops from the virus and also reduced the amount of virus out there, it could come back very quickly without them,” Dr Stevens warned. He said that the BBRO had doubled its aphid trapping and monitoring coverage this year, from 30 to 60 sites, and a complete forecast will be made available in early March for growers to be able to fully understand the risk their crops are facing this season. Regular updates on potential risk will be issued via the BBRO’s website, Advisory Bulletin and Twitter feed, he noted.

Dr Stevens pointed out that newlyavailable Teppeki (flonicamid) is the only chemical option for the control of aphids in sugar beet, with one application permitted up to the 12leaf stage of the crop. “Aphid trials at Morley, Norfolk have demonstrated the control benefits of Teppeki and, reassuringly, growers will get up to 21 days protection of their crops once applied at the threshold (1 wingless green aphid/4 plants). “The problem of course is that aphids could be flying for up to 12 weeks and so timing of the application is important,” he said. Dr Stevens stressed that pyrethroids and carbamates should not be used to control aphids – 90 per cent of aphids have resistance to them and the chemistry will also knock-out many beneficial insects. “Once you know aphids are in the area and have exceeded the threshold, then spray with Teppeki at the label rate,” he added. Dr Stevens advised growers to be aware of spoil heaps and cleaner/ loader sites which may be greening up and could provide a green bridge for feeding aphids. Cover crops in the area should also be destroyed ahead of drilling the new crop as these are also known to host virus-carrying aphids. He said that the BBRO was committed to delivering novel alternative strategies for the control of virus yellows in the future, with a focus on resistant/tolerant varieties, methods for maximising beneficial

insects, biocontrol and new, novel agronomy and insecticides.

Changing methods BBRO’s crop recovery and mechanisation specialist, Stephen Aldis, said that it was clear that growers’ sugar beet establishment methods were changing with increasing use of reduced tillage systems. He said that management of weed seeds through less soil movement, workload benefits and the cost of cultivations are factors influencing change, while there was a desire to drill into sufficient soil moisture, even when faced with unpredictable spring weather. Examples of strip-till and conventional systems were used to make growers aware of the risk of using a single year’s results to make on farm decisions, while still encouraging on farm trials. Mr Aldis said that there was still a huge variation in what growers actually drilled compared with their intended target (about 10 per cent either side), and that a simple pre-drilling “back to basics” drill calibration could be the answer. He also said that use of modern hybrid drills and larger tractors had significantly increased the weight of machinery on the seedbed and growers needed to ensure they had the right machines for the system of establishment they were operating. While some hybrid drills can offer increased forward speed, it’s important for drill operators to be aware of adjusting drill speed according to a change in soil type, he stressed. “Adjust drill working depth, pressure and forward speed for individual seedbeds.” Looking to the future, Mr continued over...

Aldis highlighted establishment technology to help growers get their crops up and away quicker, including real time soil moisture sensors attached to drills to find moisture while planting – automatically adjusting drill operating depth and pressure to place the seed into the moisture, variable rate and ‘variable variety’ systems as well as precision liquid application – applying a measured dose of nutrition per individual seed.

Leaf development BBRO’s Dr Simon Bowen (right) told delegates that temperature is the most important driver of leaf development (and light interception) in sugar beet – however, sufficient water and nitrogen is also required to maximise the effect. Insufficient levels of either when temperatures are good will slow crop development, he explained. “In terms of available moisture, while we can’t control rainfall, we can manage soil structure which will influence how much moisture we

hold on to,” he said. “When cultivating, think about what’s happening below the seedbed. Check soils are dry and there is good aggregate structure, good moisture retention and drainage. If the soil is too wet then be patient. Check soils for compaction, particularly below wheels and don’t work soils too fine,” Dr Bowen advised. He reminded growers that sugar beet is sensitive to soils with a low pH – directly effecting plant development by reducing key nutrient availability. Low pH will also increase crop susceptibility to soilborne diseases, he added. “Make sure nitrogen is applied early enough – at least 30–50kg N/ha at drilling, the remainder by the 4–6th leaf stage of the crop.” Dr Bowen also stressed that trials have demonstrated that placement of nitrogen (compared with broadcasting) to the side and below the seed can result in a significant benefit in yield. Early nitrogen is driving early canopy development,” he explained. “Don’t forget sulphur,” reminded

Dr Bowen. “Sugar beet on light land not receiving sulphate-based fertiliser or organic manures are at risk from deficiency and backward canopy growth.” He said that BBRO continues to assess the use of biofoliar applied micronutrients and biostimulants, however trials at three sites in 2018 showed few significant differences compared with untreated controls. Dr Bowen concluded by advising growers to avoid herbicide damage to the establishing crop. “Know where your different varieties are in terms of growth stages as this will determine the effect of herbicides. Some varieties are more susceptible to herbicides than others, so check product rates and tank mix labels and don’t mix varieties in a field.”

Cover crops in beet Dr Bowen also posed the question as to whether cover crops worked in a sugar beet rotation. Trials carried out by the BBRO in 2016/17 and 2017/18 seasons looked at a range of systems across 12 cover crops including plough and min-till, with and without organic manures, single, dual and multi-mix species, and different destruction

approaches. These were followed up by BBRO yield dig validations. Cover crop biomass, rooting, soil compaction, structure, earthworms and nitrogen levels were all measured to determine the effects of cover crops on the soil and on the following beet crop, explained Dr Bowen. Headline figures from the work show that, in 42 per cent of trials, a 5–10 per cent increase in yield was found in beet crops with a cover crop in the rotation. Where 2 cover crops featured in the rotation, 60 per cent of crops in trials recorded a yield increase. “Interestingly, in rotations where a cover crop featured and a min-till regime was operated, 50 per cent of crops registered a yield increase,” Dr Bowen added. In addition to yield data, observations from the trials included: • No advantage was seen using multi-mix cover crop species compared with single or double species • Early drilled cover crops into moisture perform better, producing more of a response in the beet crop continued over...

Higher cover crop seed rates are required in dry conditions • The inclusion of legumes such as vetch and clover result in higher nitrogen reserves in the soil • Higher SMN (soil mineral nitrogen) levels, with organic matter, may allow a reduction in applied N • Cereal cover crop species are suited to shallow soil structuring, while brassicas and phacelia for deeper • BCN management – a BCN resistant cover crop should be used but removed 5–6 weeks before a BCN tolerant beet variety is drilled • Earthworm numbers are increased • Nitrogen lock-up is not an issue where there is a 5–6 week gap to the beet crop being drilled • Destruction: sheep grazing works well; desiccation and crimping need more careful timing “There’s no doubt that cover crops are a tool in the sugar beet rotation but there isn’t a blueprint as to how to get the maximum benefit. Growers will have to figure that out and it’s also worth remembering that they need a long-term approach,” concluded Dr Bowen. ■

Sugar Beet Beet grower cover crop observations Ollie Scott – Thelverton Farms, Diss, Norfolk Cover crop objective: To build fertility and resilience on light land. Approach: Combining cover crops (oats/radish mix), organic manure and min-till. Using a glyphosate-based destruction. Observations: “Early establishment is key for good biomass and root development. I’ve seen improvement in soil texture. Don’t rush into drilling the following beet crop. Up to 15 per cent increase in beet yields. Beet crop more drought tolerant in 2018. I believe cover crops have a long-term role on the farm and the benefits will increase over time.” Simon Brock – Swanton Morley Farms, Norfolk Cover crop objective: An opportunity to drive fertility and additional nitrogen for beet crops and to hold on to nutrients on lighter land. Approach: Fourth year of experimenting with cover crops. Radish based. Both grazing and glyphosate destruction methods tried. Observations: “Fast establishment

crucial. Concerns about destroying bulky cover crops, especially in wet years. Increase in soil nitrogen levels. Increase in earthworms. No consistent effects on beet yields. Still to be totally convinced about cover crops. Need to perfect establishment and destruction. Will look at reduced tillage and will keep experimenting.” Simon Eddell – Rougham Estate, Suffolk Cover crop objective: Long-term approach taken at the outset to drive fertility and resilience on lighter land, hoping to improve organic matter. Approach: Combining the use of organic manures, cover crops and reduced-till. Rye and vetch mixes are preferred. Cover crops are grazed by sheep. Observations: “Early establishment is key. Sheep grazing is very effective. Consistent improvement in soil N levels and routinely applying less N to beet. Seen organic matter improve by 0.5 per cent. Inconsistent

improvements in beet yields. Cover crops are an established part of our light land management. Benefits will increase over time.” David Jones – Morely Farms, Norfolk Cover crop objective: To improve soil structure and health status. Improving nutrient availability and reducing nutrient loss over winter. Approach: In conjunction with use of manure. Exploring striptillage options. Black oat (more root than oat)/vetch mix preferred. Targeting early establishment. Early destruction with glyphosate. Observations: “Concerned about slugs with brassica species and striptilling. Green bridge between OSR and legumes not an issue yet. Early destruction is key on more bodied land. Some evidence of improved soil tilth. Overall improvement in beet crop yield performance. It will take a number of years to perfect a different system with cover crops. We can only learn by trying new things.”

Sprout suppressant alternatives sought with CIPC use in the balance As FG went to press in late February, the future of mainstay potato sprout suppressant product CIPC was in the balance. Dominic Kilburn attended an AHDB Storage Roadshow for an update.

Finally

An easier way to treat PCN. Velum Prime is a nematicide with a liquid formulation and a new mode of action It is applied in-furrow to offer improved ease of use and has significantly lower dose rates than traditional granules With no harvest interval, it can also easily be used on early potato crops

A decision by the EU to confirm the withdrawal of CIPC from the market is expected following its recommendation in 2018 not to re-approve CIPC for future use. In fact, the decision may already have been announced by the time you read this. However, ahead of the announcement there remains a possibility that CIPC could get a stay of execution. According to Sutton Bridge Crop Storage Research (SBCSR) senior scientist, Adrian Briddon, speaking at an AHDB Potatoes roadshow event on the Cambridgeshire/Essex border, whatever the decision made by the EU, it is unlikely that CIPC will be available for use by potato store managers for very much longer. “Regulations are changing,” he began. “We’ve had CIPC for 50 years and with the EU recommending its withdrawal last year, there may only be six months to a year’s use remaining. “If the EU’s decision is not to reapprove it, then there could be a very short use up period, or it could be up

to 18 months. We simply don’t know,” he said. “Gram for gram, CIPC is the best sprout suppressant we have and if it is the case that we lose it, then there will be a number of growers supplying certain markets in the potato industry that are going to struggle,” stressed Mr Briddon. AHDB is carrying out storage trials to determine how best to control sprouting with the remaining suppressants, should CIPC not be renewed. “That said, even if CIPC is returned to the market for continued use, it would do so at very different label rates and maximum residue levels (MRLs) to existing,” he pointed out.

CIPC alternatives? Mr Briddon suggested that other sprout suppressant products that were currently available could play an increasingly important role in potato store management if CIPC use could not be guaranteed for the future, and he highlighted their advantages and

Getting spring grass weed control spot on Early spring is the main timing for post-emergence herbicides to control black-grass and other grass weeds. Bayer’s Dr Gordon Anderson-Taylor shares his thoughts on how sprayer operators can get the best result at this time of year when grass-weeds still represent a relatively small and difficult to hit target.

Spring grass weed control in cereals is one of the more difficult applications for sprayer operators. Over 60 per cent suggested in a Bayer survey last year grass weeds were challenging to hit at this time – only sugar beet herbicide sprays were felt to be a harder challenge. It’s important to keep in mind what result you are aiming for. Post-emergence herbicides are contact-acting; the aim is for a spray droplet to land, settle and dry on the weed leaf so that it takes in the active substances. Spray conditions are important for this, not too windy with sufficient drying time. But it is also worth thinking about what is happening to the active substance during the spraying process.

In the tank Products like Monolith (mesosulfuron + propoxycarbazone) have been developed to be easily dispersible in the spray tank, while most sprayers maintain agitation during filling and spraying so operators can expect even dispersion of the products. But while individual products may disperse well, tank mixing may reduce dispersion within the tank, so it is important to check tank-mix sheets for physical compatibility to prevent issues like clogging of filters and sedimentation. The other big question when filling the spray tank is water volume. Volumes of 100-litres/ha have been shown to increase the efficacy of post-ems. However, such low

disadvantages. Maleic hydrazide (MH), which is applied to the growing crop as a liquid, typically 3–5 weeks before haulm desiccation, is very effective as a lone treatment, or as a foundation for other treatments. It’s also widely accepted across sectors, said Mr Briddon. “We see a large proportion of stored crops well controlled with MH although a small number then break dormancy. A lot of MH-treated crops stored long-term have to be followed by another sprout suppressant, and timing then is critical,” he explained. Application in the field can be restricted depending on temperatures, he pointed out, and last year’s high temperatures and dry conditions made applications very difficult. “MH got through the recent EU review process but with a restriction which will prevent treated (waste) potatoes being given to stock as feed. “We hope that this clause will come off the label soon when more work on this is completed by approval holders,” added Mr Briddon. Other readily available sprout suppressants for growers to consider at the moment are spearmint oil and ethylene (gas), he continued.

volumes require an optimal sprayer and nozzle set up as well as good spraying conditions to get the best results. Using slightly higher spray volumes of 150–200-litres/ha are often more consistent because sprayer set up and spray conditions are rarely perfect.

In the air Whatever spray volume is used, choosing the right spray quality will have the biggest impact on herbicide performance. For Monolith and similar products, a fine to medium spray quality is best. Low drift and air induction nozzles are not typically recommended for post-em grass weed control due to the coarseness of the droplets delivered which is not ideal to hit a small grass-weed such as black-grass. If drift is a concern, ideally wait for better conditions rather than adjusting spray quality. Keep the boom height low, around 50cm above the target for most nozzles which will help reduce drift and keep the droplets on target.

1-31 March.indd 19

“Spearmint oil, which doesn’t have an MRL, is currently widely accepted in the fresh sector but not in processing.” Ethylene has been widely adopted in the fresh sector too and also has no MRL. “Both Spearmint and ethylene are straightforward from a regulatory point of view but their efficacy is more modest and so will likely be used in combination with other products for the most demanding storage scenarios.” Mr Briddon said that SBCSR is also evaluating DMN (1,4-dimthylnaphthalene) and SmartBlock (3-decen-2-one) as alternative treatments however neither is yet available for use in the UK. “DMN is Annex 1 listed and availability has been applied for in the UK but not granted as yet. However with the completion of further study work it is hoped regulatory approval in the UK will be soon. “It is available, and used, in several European countries,” he said. “We want continued over...

On the leaf Once the spray droplet reaches the leaf, it spreads out and is transported to the site of action in the plant. This is where adjuvants contribute by improving the uptake of the active ingredient. For Monolith and other mesosulfuron products, we find that the biopower adjuvant (1-litre/ha) is the most consistent at boosting uptake and activity. Faster uptake also means you need a shorter drying window for the herbicide to take effect. However, rain washing off the herbicide is the biggest danger post-application so spray-operators shouldn’t take any risks with the weather as you only have one chance with the post-em. The physical condition of the plant and leaf also affects performance. A frost hardened plant, or a plant suffering from “stress” (eg drought) may have a tougher plant cuticle and active uptake may be reduced. It is for this reason that mesosulfuron-based products should be applied to actively growing plants. ■

long periods of residual control and these products give it,” added Mr Briddon. Trials work carried out at AHDB Sutton Bridge Crop Storage Research in 2017–2018 highlighted that, in the absence of MH in a sprout suppressant programme, both spearmint oil and ethylene sometimes struggled to maintain sprout control over a 6–9 month period at 9ºC. Adding MH into the programme, control was generally much better with spearmint oil and ethylene, although for long-term storage sprouting was only well controlled when using long dormant cultivars. “To get good sprout control in future with fewer sprout suppressants, we need to take into account other factors such as variety dormancy, low temperature tolerance, as well as the use of MH.” Mr Briddon pointed out that variety dormancy was poorly understood at the moment but it was an area where sprout control could be improved. “Varieties like King Edward and Maris Piper make sprout control difficult, but we are finding more dormant types, like Taurus, are better. In addition, use of low temperature

tolerant varieties (where crop can be stored at lower temperature without damaging fry colour) helps by extending dormancy and reducing the overall sprouting pressure. These will be much more important factors in the future. “Work is on-going but we will be able to provide more information on established and the latest varieties in terms of their likelihood to sprout more or less than others,” he added.

Application kit Mr Briddon also suggested that, as other sprout suppressant products became more widely used by store managers, then application equipment would also have to change. “Petroldriven hot fogging applicators are the key kit for UK sprout suppressant application in stores, however as a byproduct of combustion when applying CIPC, ethylene and carbon dioxide are produced which can affect potato fry colour. “As a consequence stores are normally flushed through with air a few hours after application of CIPC to prevent this, but vapour phase products such as spearmint have to remain within a sealed store for at least 24 hours following application to

maintain efficacy. “Electric-driven or alternativelypowered machines will have to be considered instead of petrol-driven and this will affect contractors in the industry and the time it takes to apply a sprout suppressant to a stored crop,” he said. Mr Briddon concluded by saying that SBCSR is also gathering data on the residue level of CIPC on potatoes in stores which haven’t

had an application of CIPC for one or two years. “If approval for CIPC is not renewed then the MRL for CIPC will revert to 0.01ppm. Our work suggests that contamination from CIPC residue remaining in the store fabric could result in an exceedance of this level. “Therefore the aim of the work is to provide information that could allow a temporary MRL to be set that wouldn’t interfere with marketing of potatoes in the future.” ■

Best use for MH Also at the event was Certis product manager for the company’s potato portfolio, Nick Badger (right). In light of the probable revocation of CIPC, he reckoned there were going to be some major challenges ahead for crop management in-store. “Today, however, we’ve seen the important role that maleic hydrazide can play in mitigating the potential loss of CIPC, highlighted by the AHDB research,” he commented. Last season was the first for Certis with its maleic hydrazide-based product Crown MH. “It was a challenging season with the high temperatures, however we are working on producing a ‘best use guide’ for MH incorporating advice on factors such as temperature, moisture, plant stress and sprayer water volumes, to help growers maximise crop uptake and sprout suppressant activity. “Despite the conditions, last season we saw good results with MH used in combination with CIPC, and we expect to see fewer PCN and blight harbouring potato volunteers in the following crop where MH had been applied.”

Project aims to link technology, knowledge and advice Farm business profitability and environmental sustainability will become increasingly critical as we move through the next decade of change and uncertainty, requiring resource and a new management approach, says agronomy firm Hutchinsons. This means that the current agronomist and grower relationship will need to evolve if these challenges are to be met over the next ten years, and utilising technology will be a significant part of this, recognises Hutchinsons head of Technology & Innovation Stuart Hill. “We are being exposed to a plethora of technologies such as data analytics, climate, machine learning, sensors, monitoring, detection systems, autonomy and robotics. However, there is a need to evaluate which technologies are relevant and ultimately increase productivity and profitability, as well as efficiency, both for the grower and the agronomist.” The Hutchinsons Helix project aims to do just this and is the first of its kind in the UK; Helix is a unique research project looking at how technologies can be successfully linked with knowledge to deliver a greater level of advice by agronomists to farm businesses. Focussing on key areas of innovation and technology, the Helix project will act as a central research hub bringing together all aspects of crop production through to field data and input measurement. From sensors and prediction software, soil management and analysis to environmental aspects such as surveillance and predictive systems, nutrition, input and new trait technologies will also be assessed and developed within the Helix project. “Growers and agronomists want

simplicity, so linking of technologies and knowledge will lead to decision making through a one hub system approach, Omnia.”

with the farm to understand how they will work and their value in the farm scale situation. Work has already begun on the farm on areas such as climate and pest prediction, nutrition technology, variety trait work and environmental sustainability. “We will aim to demonstrate these technologies by various means and not just the traditional farm open days. After all, this is about use and benefit of technologies, so technology will be used to demonstrate it, “says Mr Hill.

Key concerns According to the company, a recent Hutchinsons’ grower survey identified the key concerns for farming businesses over the next 10 years. Conducted by Hutchinsons’ agronomists, including Andrew Goodinson from Herefordshire, respondents identified that their main business challenges over the next 10 years would be profitability, agronomics, staffing and technology. “It was certainly clear when talking to growers that they felt that they would need to develop a stable business not reliant on subsidies using existing resources, and to do this they would need to become more efficient through attention to detail, “ says Mr Goodinson. “They felt that future technologies such as satellite images as well as the use of diagnostic tools would become increasingly common, and that variable rate applications would become the norm. This was alongside the need to harmonise different systems to have a paperless recording base.” “In order to do this, farmers would expect agronomists of the future to have wider access to information and solutions, become data interpreters, less field walkers and be ahead of the game in terms of skills and technology developments.”

Helix project focus The Helix project will focus on three key project areas to start with that will align new and old technologies, evolving and developing these to improve crop management decisions. More projects will become apparent during 2019. Project Predict & Justify – predicting and monitoring risk analysis with regards to disease, pests, crop growth, lodging risk. This will help growers to identify and understand where there is risk and to help justify farm decisions. For example BYDV risk forecasting – making this field specific and

for warnings to come before threshold levels are reached. Project Sustainability – sustainability encapsulates a sustainable farm business. This project looks at the sustainable use of inputs and sustainable farm environment. For example Hutchinsons is developing technology to enable mapping of pollination species in appropriate locations and timings on farm. Project Nutrition – soil and tissue testing are challenging and time consuming processes. The nutrition project aims to simplify decision making by enabling live analysis alongside developing knowledge. ■

Potato Weed Control

Looking for alternatives after diquat withdrawal Graham Tomalin talking at an AHDB SPot farm event.

For UK potato growers, the news that diquat has had its approval withdrawn by the EU Commission, will have come as a major blow that could see herbicide and mechanical defoliation costs soar. Following the Appeal Committee meeting on 12 July 2018, in which no opinion was reached regarding a proposal from the European Commission to withdraw the approval of diquat, the European Commission has decided to implement its proposal not to renew its approval in the EU. This decision applies to all products containing diquat, and was based on concerns related to the precautionary principle of exposure as well as danger to birds. The

European Commission has proposed that diquat is withdrawn from the market by 4th May 2019, with a use-up period for growers by 4th February 2020. Although more specific details of use up and sell-out periods have yet to be ratified, growers are looking to alternative methods to ensure continuity of weed control in pre-emergence and early post-emergent situations and costeffective alternatives to diquat desiccation. Independent potato agronomist Graham Tomalin who advises growers on early, second early and main crop varieties for mainly prepack and processing markets across Suffolk and Norfolk, believes that adequate weed control can still be achieved. Although diquat is still relevant for the 2019 growing season, Mr Tomalin believes that the alternatives of Shark (a micro-emulsion (ME) formulation containing 60g/litre carfentrazone) and Gozai (pyraflufen) can still be as reliable especially when used in tandem or in a programme with residual products such as metribuzin/metobromuron/prosulfocarb. “It’s important to use these products in combination to suit the situation and weed spectrum,” explains Mr Tomalin. “There is no stand alone option and in the absence of diquat, we shall have to tailor our programmes more specifically.”

Pre-emergence Shark can be used pre-emergence at up to 0.33-litres/ha up to a tolerance of 5 per cent emergence in first earlies and 10 per cent in second earlies and main crop. It is very important not to delay crop growth by applying the product beyond these timings. It also provides broad-spectrum contact activity

across a range of broad-leaved weeds including polygonums, brassica weeds, fat hen and cleavers. The contact activity serves to replace the diquat element as a viable alternative and Mr Tomalin believes that in-field trials this year alongside diquat will give growers confidence going forward. However it will be important not to exceed the emergence levels as the products are harsher on any emerged crop than diquat. “I believe we can manipulate our preemergence programmes well enough to accommodate the loss of diquat by using these products, although the bigger issue will be at haulm destruction where diquat has been so essential for defoliation,” he says. “The only other effective option for large or immature canopies is flailing and this will undoubtedly increase, although as with any mechanical process, it will mean increased cost.” Spotlight (also 60g/litre carfentrazone) is still highly effective for stem destruction, but in many varieties that have dense canopies, the only real way to remove the leaf foliage will be flailing. Mr Tomalin believes that this will be much easier to manage on lighter land crops lifted earlier in the season, but for late-lifted crops on heavy land the increased traffic under unsuitable field conditions could prove costly. “Under wet conditions on heavier soils, increased mechanical damage to both soil and crop could be an issue,” he continues. “Smearing of the soil could lead to conditions that affect soil structure and expose crop to greening and potentially slower harvest. It’s an effective process but not in every situation. “Further information regarding the sell-out of diquat and use-up dates issued by CRD is still to be announced, but at least we do have options,” he confirms. ■

Weed Control

Tackle weeds early if you can Resistance and unpredictable weather strengthens case for early herbicide applications, growers are advised. As soil temperatures begin to rise, cereal growers’ minds will once again turn to spring herbicide applications. There will be hopes for a more straight-forward campaign than 2018 when weeks of snow and rain resulted in a near non-existent spring. While the cold conditions suppressed weed growth, when the rain eventually stopped growers faced a compressed period to complete fieldwork. Corteva Agriscience cereal herbicide product manager, Alister McRobbie (right), expects those who can tackle weeds early to do so. “Last year was a reminder of how unpredictable weather can be and it had a significant effect on weed control programmes,” Mr McRobbie said. “It has always been sound advice

to get underway early when weeds are small, principally because you’re knocking them out before they affect yield. But the rationale has been strengthened by the unpredictable weather patterns seen in recent years, as well as the growing threat of resistance.” When Pixxaro (Arylex + fluroxypyr) gained approval it was the first new broad-leaved weed herbicide to be registered in the UK for well over a decade. It was followed by the launch of Zypar (Arylex + florasulam). Along with the properties you would expect of a robust herbicide, it offered growers the chance to get on early with weed control and a new active ingredient to fight resistance.

ALS inhibiting herbicide resistance in some broad-leaved weeds has been reported since 2014. “We are all aware of the severity of grass weed resistance and growers are taking serious steps to try and counter the issue,” said Mr McRobbie. “We have avoided ALS broadleaved weed resistance becoming a more widespread issue through tank mixing with other modes of action, such as the phenoxy herbicides and, more recently, new, more effective herbicides such as Pixxaro.” Growers who want to get going early will be looking for a flexible product which performs in cold and variable temperatures and has a variety of tank mix partners, Mr McRobbie said. “The key strengths of Pixxaro and Zypar are that they take out key target broad-leaved weeds in cold and variable temperatures, and offer huge flexibility in terms of timing and tank-mix compatibility,” he added. Zypar’s application window is open from growth stage 11 through to growth stage 45 in all winter and spring cereals except oats.

It offers excellent control of chickweed, poppy, cranesbill, cleavers and brassica weeds among others, Mr McRobbie said. For winter cereals where a residual herbicide has been used, Zypar at 0.75-litres/ha will cover most if not all the remaining key weeds. If residual herbicides have not been used or their activity has been compromised, a mixture of Zypar with a picolinafen product such as Picona will control a mixed population of annual meadow grass and broad-leaved weeds. In spring cereals, where a residual herbicide has been used Zypar alone at 0.75-litres/ha will control the weeds that come through the residual herbicide. Pixxaro offers growers and agronomists a way to be more precise in targeting specific weed challenges, using dose rate flexibility. It can also be mixed with a wide range of tank mix partners, including the sulfonyl-ureas and can be used to control difficult weeds such as lateemerging cleavers and fumitory. ■

New wheat varieties offer agronomic value As well as offering winter wheat varieties that combine good yield and marketability, plant breeder KWS reckons that the new generation of varieties must also deliver ‘agronomic value’ if growers are to face up to the challenges and uncertainties of the future. Particularly important, says the company, is the ability for varieties to deliver profitability in an era where there is less chemistry available to control key yield robbing, and difficult to control disease, septoria. To this end, KWS has officially launched two of its winter wheat varieties with the promise of delivering exactly that. Speaking at an event in Cambridgeshire recently, KWS product development manager John Miles said that the company’s newly recommended Group 2 variety, KWS Extase has good all-round disease resistance, with a List-topping 8.1 rating for septoria as well as “unrivalled” untreated yield at 95 per cent of treated controls –7 per cent ahead of the next best variety, Graham. This, said Mr Miles, was following three years of National List trials for Extase, each of which had been challenging in their own right; particularly from septoria pressure in 2015, yellow rust in 2016 and brown rust in 2017. Mr Miles said that Extase would appeal to growers in the East close to quality end-markets, and particularly those with large farms with stretched capacity where its robust disease resistance would buy them time. “Its combination of high septoria resistance and high grain spec is unique and will appeal to growers in the East and South looking for a quality variety,” he commented. “Its fast speed of development is also beneficial to growers drilling later for black-grass control, while good stem stiffness and earliness to mature are additional advantages,” he added.

New Group 3 KWS wheat breeder Mark Dodds said that the company’s new biscuit quality variety KWS Firefly is the highest yielding in Group 3 across the UK at 102 per cent. It also comes with the highest Hagberg Falling Number in the Group

(248), a decent specific weight (75.9kg/hl) and has full uks (export quality) accreditation, he commented. “Agronomics-wise it has a good package; and very good when it comes to septoria (7), brown rust (8) and yellow rust (9). “It also has resistance to orange wheat blossom midge which is an important factor with less chemistry available,” Mr Dodds added. Short and stiff, he said that Firefly is well suited for growers in the West where it has excellent yield potential in combination with its septoria rating and a high HFN. However, with 73 per cent of Group 3 plantings based in the AHDB’s East region, it is a very important part of the country for biscuit wheat production, he said. Here, Firefly has a 2 per cent yield advantage over Barrel and Elicit, the highest septoria rating in the Group, useful OWBM resistance and yields close to Group 4 Gravity, but with premium potential, pointed out Mr Dodds. KWS Extase is expected to take 3.5 per cent of the Certified seed market this autumn and Firefly 4.5 per cent. ■

Group 3 KWS Firefly.

De-risking OSR KWS has launched a new scheme to help growers with the risk of growing oilseed rape. Financial outlay for its conventionally-bred, high output Candidate variety Blazen will be reduced for growers when seed is purchased, as will the seed royalty. This will be followed up by a levy that has to be paid once the crop has safely established. According to KWS oilseed manager, Julie Goult, OSR is acknowledged as being one of the best autumn-sown break crops, but it’s not without its establishment problems following the loss of neonicotinoid seed treatments and pest issues. She said that an estimated 10 per cent of the UK crop was lost in 2018, and that the company’s ‘Oilseed Establishment Partnership’ was a way of reducing some of the risk undertaken by farmers when growing the crop. “It’s a way of sharing the OSR establishment risk between the grower, the breeder and the

merchant,” she commented. The price of the Blazen seed, bought through a participating merchant, will be £115– £125/ pack, depending on how many packs are ordered (4 million seeds/pack), and if the crop is still in the ground by 1st November then the grower will pay an establishment fee of £28/ha. The scheme is available to any grower through a simple online sign up, and, as well as assisting growers with cash flows and reducing risk, the scheme will also provide participants with a ‘best practice’ information sharing platform for growing the variety each season. Managed by British Intellectual Property Office (BIPO), it is hoped that as many as 1,000 growers will sign up to the scheme initially, and that many of those currently growing farm-saved seed will be drawn back into growing Certified seed, added Ms Goult.

Rural Advice

Are we nearly there yet? Mark Russell of Carter Jonas’ Cambridge office says that the business is expanding its teams to help farmers across a broad range of activities including their asset management, contract farming agreements and how, in the future, income generated from the land can be maximised. At the time of writing, I have no idea if we will leave the EU on 29th March or even if by then we will have the same Prime Minister. However, what I do know is that, within our business, our emphasis is subtly changing to reflect how we see the next five years. We continue to build our teams on the Estate Management and Professional Services teams who focus on asset value. To help these teams provide advice to clients, as a firm we have built the Commercial and Planning & Development teams, in order to be able to help farmers enhance the value of their property – barn conversions,

housing developments, commercial developments and roadside outlets – not forgetting our Energy and Minerals & Waste teams finding opportunities to find additional value on, above and below ground. However, the big change is a move to focusing on income generation into farm and estate accounts as well. To this end, we now have a head of Agribusiness, and are building a network of individuals within our teams who will focus on contract farming agreements, both negotiating for the farmer and analysing contractor businesses to ensure that the work taken on is being run at a profit.

They will also ensure they are ahead of the curve about the new subsidy schemes as they emerge and, where diversification is concerned, will help with the asset side (planning, building contracts etc.) as well as analysing business viability and market potential.

Strong relationships Across the country, we have strong relationships with agribusiness companies which have great knowledge of farmers’ businesses, and we are working with them to enhance our offering to clients so that the asset and the income aspects are more closely aligned. These moves reflect what we see as important for farmers and landowners going forward. Challenges of income generation are coming to the fore, with landowners thinking quite hard about how income will be generated from the land, and are looking five years ahead. I am working at the moment with a landowner – who has only recently taken control of their land

– to put the land down to a grass ley and take a hay crop. For two years they can collect the BPS, sell a simple crop and have relatively low risk. They will also be in a position to then alter cropping across the farm as they see fit, in order to meet any subsidy regime within the areas of public benefit they want to engage with, or to carry on producing a relatively low cost crop potentially targeting the amenity, rather than food, market. It also looks like there will be many more partnership openings between landowners and third sector organisations where a charity or environmental body might manage the public benefit part of a farm. This could form some interesting and profitable relationships as and when the new wave of subsidy schemes come into existence. *If you’re thinking of reviewing the way your farm is run, and would like to talk to Carter Jonas about how the business can help, contact me on 07967 555737 or email me at mark.russell@carterjonas.co.uk. ■

Open Day

Precision event reflects weed control priorities

Members of the Garford team at its first official open day, attended by more than 100 potential and existing users. (l-r) Harry Coppin, Kevin King, Gareth Griffith, Mark Lamin, George Hall, Russell Moon and Robert Silvester.

More than 100 growers attended the first ever open day by UK-based precision row crop machinery manufacturer Garford. David Williams was there. Now known internationally as a manufacturer of precision mechanical weeders, Garford started trading in 1986, offering an innovative skew bar sugar beet topper which removed foliage, but left the beet root intact. Garford also manufactured specialist manually guided inter-row hoes but, in 1997, worked with Silsoe Research Institute successfully developing a hoe with precision guidance, which led to it becoming a pioneer of this technology. Since then the company has specialised in this field, taking advantage of new innovations including camera guidance, sensors and robotics to enhance precision and performance. Now its Robocrop automation is seen as industry leading, and the manufacturer supplies machinery to growers across the UK and overseas.

Cost-effective Until recently guided hoes were used mainly for weed control in vegetable and salad crops, but also offered advantages for organic farms as a practical alternative to large fieldscale manual hoeing. Concern over labour availability has led to increased interest in the technology in recent years, but demand has also been stimulated for conventional arable crop weed control due to increasing herbicide resistance issues and a move to reducing chemical use and costs. Whereas chemical applications are pricey and timings are critical to ensure maximum efficacy, mechanical weeders can be used as often as needed during the season

to maintain clean crops. Shallow cultivations require very little power so fuel use is low and tractor wear and tear is minimal. Crops planted by precision seeders or in wide rows by direct drills are ideal for machine hoeing so there is growing use of mechanical weeding in almost all crop types in the UK. “It’s clear that growers are keen to reduce dependence on fieldscale chemical applications and with the latest camera and steering technology allowing our hoes to work within rows as narrow as 6cm, and allowing hoeing to be carried out at higher speeds, mechanical weed control is a practical alternative, even on large arable farms,” explained Garford UK and Ireland sales manager Harry Coppin. “Our latest hoes are even available with section control, with individual hoe units lifted out of work when they meet cross rows on an angled headland. This means every square metre can be mechanically weeded in irregular shaped fields, without disturbing the crop.”

Several manufacturers of conventional cultivation machinery have recently added automatic guided hoes to their ranges, mainly due to increased demand from arable farms, but Garford believes its product range and service has unique advantages. “Because we manufacture every component ourselves we know what works and what doesn’t, and will listen to the customer’s needs and recommend a bespoke solution based on our many years’ experience,” added Harry. “We help the user set up the machine for first use and are always available to provide advice and support when needed. Most of the products are modular so if a fault occurs, then

once we have identified the problem components are easily swapped.”

Dealer network Increased demand nationally has encouraged Garford to set up a specialist dealer network providing sales and service and dealers appointed to date include Lincs and Norfolk-based Doubleday Group, Turners Agri serving Herefordshire, Worcs and Gloucs and Nigel Quinn AMS, looking after the range in Lancs, Shropshire and Cheshire. Main John Deere dealer Doubleday Group serves a wide variety of sizes and types of farm in its operating area. “A partnership continued over...

Chemical and mechanical Chemical-free weed control is not the only application for the precise row following technology. Garford also offers hooded and band sprayer attachments, for direct application to growing crops, or for broad-action herbicides to be applied between crop rows. “Applying glyphosate to the wheelings while hoeing between plants within a bed system is particularly attractive allowing one-pass combined chemical and mechanical weed control,” pointed out technical manager Kevin King.

The Robocrop InRow inter-row and inter-plant weeder is available in working widths up to three beds with a maximum of six rows to a bed. Designed for transplanted salads and leafy vegetables, cameras identify individual plants and a rotary disc hoe rotates around each one, tackling weeds between the plants and between the rows. Work rates up to 6 plants per second per row are achievable, and a 6m wide machine working in 50cm spaced plants at 7.2kph will achieve a spot rate of 4.2ha/hr.

Open Day

Precision hoeing without crop disturbance

At the open day an Inter-row hoe equipped with section control in the form of a Tine frame raiser was demonstrated. Available in working widths from 1.5–18.0m, typical operating speed in cereals is 10–15kph with 8–10mm accuracy. The Tine raiser feature has been available for more than two years and is a popular upgrade offering GPS or manual section control by lifting units out of work as required to match the cropped area. “It allows perfect matching of mechanical hoeing to the drilled crop rows, even where there is a diagonal headland,” explained Kevin. “Precision hoeing of every square metre without disturbing the drilled crop means there is no hand hoeing required to finish off. It’s Isobus compatible too, allowing operation through the tractor’s controls.”

Accurate inter-row hoe

The Babyleaf inter-row hoe was introduced in 2016, with general availability to end-users in 2017. A low camera height makes it extremely accurate allowing operation in row widths down to 6cm. Discs steer the hoes for optimum accuracy at 5kph and very fine blades work to 1cm depth. Currently only one is working in the UK and France is the biggest market to date. All of those sold are single bed versions but wider units are under development.

with Garford is a logical choice for us,” explained group sales manager Alex Child. “Our dealerships sit in the heart of vegetable country with many large, progressive vegetable producers situated within close proximity to our Holbeach and Swineshead depots. The growers of these high value crops are constantly looking for ways to contain costs and increase yield, and the technology on the Garford products allows them to do just that. “With the chemical toolbox of the farmer shrinking we are seeing growers look for innovative solutions to control weed pressure in the crop, and the Garford InRow Weeder is a great example, with the ability to mechanically weed in the row to an accuracy of 8mm. We are also excited by the opportunities in the arable sector as we have many sugar beet growers and cereal producers looking for a mechanical weed control option for their operations.”

Successful day Garford’s first open day was judged very successful and a mix of existing and potential customers attended allowing knowledge and opinions on products to be shared. Dealers, agronomists and university representatives also attended. “Enquiries were from growers of a wide range of conventional and organic crops including cereals, salads, vegetables and bio-products, including some farming more than 4,000ha, but all looking for alternatives to broad-scale chemical application,” pointed out Harry. “What we offer is a long-established method of weed control, brought up to date for the future. “The venue was ideal and we are very grateful to the farm owner Michael Sly and his team for letting us use it and for supporting us so well,” he added. ■

A band sprayer option includes spray nozzles and hoods fitted in place of hoe blades. Versatile applicators allow two different products to be applied simultaneously to different areas, such as glyphosate between the rows and fertiliser onto the plants. A frontmounted camera tracks multiple plant rows, averaging the centres to provide tracking accuracy within 1cm. Typical working speed is 7–8kph, although this is dependent more on the application rates needed than limitations due to precision.

Open Day

Open day success signals busy year ahead An open day by Case IH main dealer Farmstar enjoyed sunny, dry weather, over 1,000 customers in attendance and plenty of sales on the day. David Williams was there. Farmstar looks after customers in Yorkshire, Nottinghamshire and part of Lincolnshire from four depots at Marr – South Yorkshire, Market Weighton – North Yorkshire and Newark – Notts, and Brigg – Lincolnshire. The open day, in late January, was at its Marr head office but also attracted customers which normally deal with the other depots. Dealer and supplier representatives were busy throughout the day providing information on machinery, equipment, products and services and taking many confirmed orders. Along with new Case IH tractors, combines and telehandlers, machinery was displayed from the other main franchises represented by the dealer including: Manitou; Kubota ground care; McHale; Richard Western; Bomford Turner; Kverneland; Vicon; Alpego; KRM;

Ritchie; Mzuri and Philip Watkins. An under-cover display area included stands featuring Draper, Stihl, Portek, Stocks-Ag and Wroot Water. “We enjoyed a very successful event,” commented Farmstar Marr sales manager Tom Clark. “The attendance was excellent including new and existing customers from right across our trading area and on the day we took orders for 49 used machines and 13 new products including tractors – mainly Maxxums and Pumas. All our main brands including Case IH, Kverneland and Bomford Turner were in strong demand and we will be busy during the coming months following up enquiries from the day with quotations, and on-site demonstrations when the weather allows. It was a great start to our year.” continued over...

The showroom and parts store was busy throughout the event with customers taking advantage of special offers..

The parts team is pictured at the event; (l-r) parts supervisor Nigel Edward, and parts advisers Katie Hodgson and John Moss.

Keen interest in precision farming products A steady stream of visitors were keen to talk through precision farming products throughout the day and Case IH AFS specialist Shaun Price (left) was on-hand to help. Customer Rick Woods is the main operator of a Quadtrac 620 for Sandy, Retfordbased Barton & Co (Farmers) Ltd. He is pictured (right) chatting through options with Farmstar workshop technician and AFS installation specialist Graham Brownless (centre). “We get on well with Case IH tractors and have recently purchased a Puma 240CVX. Farmstar provides very good service,” commented Rick.

Machinery New telehandler for fencing contractor

A handler for all farm sizes

...More on previous page Farmstar Brigg depot manager Craig Bradshaw is pictured (left) with customer Ben Jackson. Ben trades as Freedom Livestock and operates as a fencing contractor while also having his own Continental beef cattle herd at his Belton base. The cattle enterprise was started approximately six years ago, and a regular buyer in Sheffield takes most of the production. A new Manitou 635-70 Elite telehandler is due to be delivered to Ben in March, following a very successful on-farm demonstration. “From the start the dealer has been easy to deal with,” commented Ben. “I was told the demonstration machine would be with me within two weeks when we were discussing suitable models, and it arrived exactly when promised. I have used a different brand previously, bought second-hand, but wanted a new machine this time and I believe the Manitou offers great value for money.” Ben said the Manitou will work with a post knocker for fence installations and will also be used for the beef cattle enterprise. “It’s my first time dealing with Farmstar but I know many farmers who use the dealer for Case IH and Manitou machinery and are impressed by the service. I have known Rupert Padgett who is based at the dealer’s Brigg depot for many years and am confident that buying the Manitou from Farmstar is the right move for my business.”

Manitou area sales manager for Yorkshire and the Midlands Glynn Wallace is pictured with a line-up of handlers at the open day. “This dealer does an excellent job of looking after customers and enjoys a large slice of the market share in the area as a result,” he said. “Demonstrators include the new articulated MLA-T 535 145V+, and the most popular model is currently the MLT 630, along with MLT 737 and 741 models. Between the four branches a wide variety of farm sizes and types is catered for and the fact that new machines are kept in stock and available for immediate delivery is appreciated by customers. All the sales team members are enthusiastic and appreciate our range so sales are shared between almost all of them.” Glynn said Manitou’s new skid-steer loader, displayed for the first time at the Lamma Show is attracting great interest and expected to boost overall sales while the MLA-T 535 launched last year is also in strong demand.

A large under-cover display area proved popular on the cold January day.

Versatile baler on show Farmstar has represented Vicon for approximately 16 years and sales manager David Furber (right) said most sales are of sprayers and balers, including the company’s latest non-stop FastBale. “The first sold in the UK was to one of this dealer’s customers for silage bale production, and he also has one of our belt balers for straw,” David explained. The FastBale displayed at the open day had also been sold by the dealer and is due for delivery for the coming season. “It’s very versatile as for silage it works non-stop allowing very high work rates, but it can also be used as a conventional round baler, achieving high density bales even with dryer materials such as straw,” he added.

Open Day Excellent customer service

High demand for versatile pelleter

Howard Baines and partner Angela Howgate are pictured admiring one of Manitou’s latest NewAg machines. Based in Wakefield the farm is mixed livestock and arable and seven Case IH tractors are operated, the latest being a Puma supplied by Farmstar. “We have dealt with this dealer for more than 20 years,” commented Howard. “Most of our business is through Tom Clark and we find the service excellent. It’s ...More on previous page a firm which we have seen go from strength to strength. “We keep our own beef suckler herd and most of our arable cropping is barley for feed. We specialise in supplying hay and straw, we buy in the field and bale then store, with most supplied to customers during the winter. Straw is mainly for cattle farmers, with most transported to northern counties including Lancashire, and hay tends to be for equestrian use, sold in 80x70 bales.” Howard said his next tractor purchase is likely to include GPS autosteer and CVT transmission, both of which will aid productivity and reduce driver effort. “We both very much enjoy Farmers Guide,” he added, “and look forward to reading it every month.”

Stocks-Ag technical sales specialist Henry Potter is pictured on the company’s display stand. “We supply large numbers of dual wheels, slug pelleters and seeders through the dealer,” he explained. “The Turbo-Jet is bought primarily for oilseed rape establishment but by swapping the feed rollers and feed block it can also apply Avadex. Slugs numbers were low during the dry autumn so Fan-Jet pelleters weren’t in particularly high demand in this area, but we have seen increased sales through Farmstar of the Turbo-Jet, because of its versatility to handle a range of products including cover crops.”

Cattle and sheep handling systems Ritchie products have been sold through Farmstar for many years. The number and variety of livestock in the trading area means the full range is in demand including stock gates, feeders, fencing and bale handling equipment. “With Farm Business Grants available to improve profitability and safety, we have seen high demand for fixed and portable cattle and sheep handling systems,” explained area sales manager for Wales and the Borders Carwyn Davies (pictured).

Machinery Ideal baler for contractors

...More on previous page The McHale team had a large display area including models from across the company’s range. “A new option for the V660 baler was a single belt, shown for the first time at Cereals last year,” explained McHale sales representative Kieran Hughes. “It also features hydraulic motor net tension adjustment, making it ideal for contractors working in a range of conditions, including variable weather. Auto-greasing is another popular option reducing down-time. “Farmstar has been a dealer for us for at least 10 years and supplies our range through all its depots. Most sales are of balers and wrappers and the dealer’s success is down to its excellent back-up and service.” Worksop, Notts-based contractor Dan Gregory of CDG Farm services is pictured (centre) with Kieran (right) and England and Wales service manager Shane Mc Kenna. “We specialise in baling but also offer a hedge cutting service to estates and farms in Nottinghamshire, Yorkshire and Derbyshire,” he explained. “Farmstar gives us a very good service which other dealers just can’t beat, so we also run Manitou handlers and use Bomford Kestrel hedge-cutters.”

Wide range of products from local firm Locally based manufacturer KRM supplies cultivation products, spreaders and drills through Farmstar. “Our drills have exclusive features which appeal to farmers and contractors in the trading area,” explained KRM technical sales representative for central England Michael Britton (pictured). “Our Bredal spreaders are also popular, including larger trailed versions which appeal to contractors and larger farms, and mounted spreaders of all sizes for grassland and arable users. “Farmstar’s sales team is brilliant – keen to do business and with an excellent service division to back it up.”

Workshop accessories popular with visitors Draper workshop accessories and tools have been available through Farmstar for more than 20 years and area manger Howard Hall (pictured) described the dealer’s sales team as brilliant. In highest demand at the open day were socket sets, toolboxes, compressors and space heaters, he said.

Open Day Excellent customer service Contractor Graham Thompson (left) trades as Specfarm Solutions, and is pictured with Craig Bradshaw. The Crowle, north Lincs-based contracting business specialises in baling, making Hesston and conventional bales and also offers a grass and pasture management service. General farm cultivations are carried out for farms in the area. Products supplied by Farmstar include a Manitou – used mainly for bale handling and stacking as well as loading manure, a Case IH round baler and other general implements. “I deal mainly with Craig,” pointed out Graham. “I knew him when he was employed previously with another dealer and when he moved to Farmstar it suited us well to continue the relationship. I have dealt with Farmstar for many years but since Craig joined I have been keen to try more of the brands and products available. “I’m considering hiring a Case IH tractor for our big baler this harvest, and looking at Kubota products too. Both are on our list of potential purchases. I deal mainly with the Brigg depot which is closest to us, and the service is always good. Without doubt the parts department is excellent. Comparing Farmstar’s service to other dealers I’m always impressed with the speed and efficiency with which enquiries are acted upon. The team is never pushy, but other dealers could learn a lot from their attitude.” Graham said the Manitou handler is superb. “I rate it very highly,” he said. “It’s an old model but remains reliable.”

Reassuringly well built products Hatfield, Doncaster-based farmer Tom Brooke of DE & M Brooke told Farmers Guide that he wouldn’t consider changing his cultivator brand from Philip Watkins as no other product offers similar ability to cope with the difficult working conditions on his heavy clay and peat. Livestock on the mixed farm include sheep and cattle and crops are winter wheat, barley, oilseed rape and sugar beet. Products supplied by the dealer include Case IH Puma 130 and 160 CVX tractors as well as the cultivator. “We bought a Philip Watkins subsoiler approximately seven years ago and it performs well and is reassuringly well built,” he said. “Our land is quite demanding and when conditions are especially tough there is a high risk of breakages. We just don’t need to worry when using the Philip Watkins products.” Farmstar Marr depot managing director Andrew Waddington agrees. “It’s a great product range and the manufacturer builds it to suit each customer’s individual needs,” he explained. “As long as it will work Philip is happy to create a bespoke piece of machinery and customers appreciate that. He isn’t seen so much as a manufacturer but more as an advisor who will discuss their needs and suggest a solution. It’s not just the cultivators which appeal. It’s also the range of trailers and in particular larger flat and livestock trailers which are in demand in this area. “All the sales staff here enjoy selling Philip Watkins products as there is always something suitable for any farm size and type. Heavy duty tillage products which are built to last and perform well with minimal attention appeal to farmers and contractors, especially when they are putting a 650hp Quadtrac on the front,” he added. Pictured (l-r) Philip Watkins sales administrator Stephanie Ward, Philip, Andrew and farmer Tom Brooke.

Busy stand for mower company

The Bomford Turner stand was busy throughout the day. Pictured discussing features and benefits of one of the large range of flail mowers are (l-r) Andrew Wood, Ashley Anson, Tom Clark, Stuart Wood and Edward Green. Edward works occasionally with farmers Andrew and Stuart who trade as SD & AJ Wood Ltd, based at Balne near Goole, north Yorkshire. Andrew commented that they deal with Farmstar’s Marr depot mainly for the excellent service offered by the team.

Rugged equipment for demanding tasks Alpego technical product support manager for the UK Charlie Thompson is pictured (left) with northern area sales manager Robert Wilmshurst. “Farmstar took on the Alpego franchise two years ago and very quickly achieved large sales, mainly of flail mowers and rotary cultivators,” explained Robert. “One of our rotary cultivators was recently supplied to incorporate willow stumps after harvesting for biomass and it was selected for its rugged build quality and 280hp-rated gearbox making it ideal for this demanding application.”

Petrol chainsaws still popular on farm Farmstar Stihl product specialist Malcolm Phillips is based at the dealer’s Newark depot and enjoyed a busy event dealing with enquiries from new and existing customers regarding the Stihl petrol and battery-powered ranges. “Farmers remain keen on petrol models but we are seeing professional users opting for battery versions for many situations,” he said. “They are quieter, there are no exhaust fumes and for amenity and golf course applications they are ideal.” Malcolm is pictured with the current most popular farm chainsaw – the Stihl MS181 with a 14in blade.

Drills reduce complexity and cost Mzuri territory manager Mark Symonds is pictured with a Pro Til3T direct drill at the event. “Most demand in this area is from farmers keen to reduce complexity and cost of crop establishment,” he explained. “Many mixed farms are improving soil structure by incorporating the maximum amount of organic matter and our drills cope well with chopped straw, farmyard manure and cover crops. The drills also cope easily drilling direct into grass leys and achieve superb maize establishment. Time is precious to livestock farmers and using our establishment technique releases time for all the livestock tasks carried out every day. “I deal mainly with Brian Bannister, Tom Clark and Lauren Fraser, all of who are enthusiastic about our product range and keen to promote its advantages to potential users.”

Small and large tractor tyres at Sima International tyre company Vredestein brought its latest Traxion tractor tyres to the French market at SIMA, the Paris International Agribusiness Show last month. The brand showcased its new Traxion 65/70 for compact tractors along with the latest sizes in its Traxion Optimall VF range for large tractors. The Traxion range offers long service life, great self-cleaning capacity, low rolling noise and lower fuel consumption says Vredestein. “It starts with the unique curvature of the tread cleats,” said Ruud Nijland, divisional head of sales for agricultural and industrial tyres. “The cleats from all our tractor tyres from the Vredestein Traxion range are positioned transversely to the direction of travel in the shoulder – ensuring maximum traction and reduced fuel consumption in the field – and oriented almost in the direction of travel in the middle of the tyre, reducing rolling resistance, noise and vibrations.” The space between the cleats increases from the centerline to the shoulder, which means they are not parallel to each other, thereby not allowing the soil to get stuck in-between. But most importantly the special compound of the Traxion tyres offers unmatched wear resistance and extra resistance to damage and punctures, which results in 30 per cent longer service life than competitors’ tyres, he added. The Vredestein Traxion Optimall VF (Very High Flexion) is a premium tractor tyre, specially developed after extensive research into the specific needs of tractor users and manufacturers. The Traxion Optimall VF range has recently been expanded with the addition of seven extra sizes, and is now available in a total of ten specifications. ■

Roy Boreham MBE (1931–2018) Founder of RC Boreham & Co, Roy Boreham MBE passed away peacefully at his home on 30th December, late last year, with his family, carers and faithful dog by his side. Farming was in Roy’s blood from a young age; he was allowed time off school to pick up potatoes on the family farm and, on his 10th birthday, ploughing with one of the first Ferguson tractors off the production line. Roy attended Writtle College, Essex and over the years worked on numerous farms, culminating in becoming an assistant manager. In

1963, Roy and his wife Ursula moved to Woodfield Farm in Essex, after securing the tenancy from Essex County Council, and which was the start of RC Boreham. Roy was passionate about his work and not afraid to take risks. His vision for business opportunities in those early days set R C Boreham & Co up to be the proud, third generation business it is today – an agricultural machinery and parts dealership incorporating haulage, hire and contract farming. Roy was a Life vice president of National and Essex YFC and, in the

2014 Honours List, he received an MBE for his Services to Young Farmers. Roy was a great character and will be missed by many.

Factory Expansion

Factory investment aims to increase production Just four years after a second assembly plant was added to keep pace with demand for its products, Massey Ferguson has celebrated further expansion at its Beauvais, France headquarters. David Williams attended the official opening. The addition of Beauvais 2 in 2014 saw cab production moved to a separate site, releasing additional area in the main factory for tractor assembly and in January this year Beauvais 3 officially opened, providing storage for components and boosting build efficiency by allowing the production line to be fed with parts kits to match each tractor’s precise build specification. “Massey Ferguson is the biggest brand in terms of the number of tractors produced around the world,” commented Agco chairman, president and CEO Martin Richenhagen. “It’s a very important brand with a longstanding history.” In 1994 Massey Ferguson was bought by Agco and in 2002 production moved from Coventry to Beauvais. Martin pointed out at the opening of Beauvais 3 that Massey Ferguson exports more agricultural machinery from France than any other brand and, with an increasing market share, the much-needed expansion will provide space for twice the current production level. The 8ha Beauvais 3 site includes 30,000m2 of buildings and the opening of the logistics centre following in excess of €10m investment has already created more than 100 new jobs. But as Martin disclosed at the event, this is only a stepping-stone to future potential factory growth as Beauvais 4 is already in the late stages of planning with a further 15.7ha neighbouring site earmarked for purchase. This will allow operations which are currently out-sourced, including pre-delivery

The new 30,000m2 Beauvais 3 logistics centre supports Massey Ferguson’s main Beauvais 1 tractor factory and will be used for component storage and assembly of component kits to meet the specification ordered by customers.

inspections, to be moved in-house and a tractor customisation workshop was one of the additional potential options for the future, similar perhaps to sister brand Valtra’s Unlimited Studio. When Beauvais 4 has joined the previous three plants, the Massey Ferguson Centre of Excellence for Engineering and Manufacturing in Beauvais will cover 54ha and employ up to 2,500 people, including at its Gima transmission and Agco Finance joint ventures which share the site.

Growth strategy Massey Ferguson vice-president and managing director for Europe, Africa and Middle East Thierry Lhotte commented; “More than €300m has been invested in Beauvais in the past 6 years. Our growth strategy is gaining momentum.” Since 2015, 14 new tractor ranges have been launched and the plan is to launch 14 more by 2023, allowing the manufacturer to meet diverse requirements of users all over the world. Targets for the next few years include production of 18,000 tractors at the site annually. Each shift can build up to 96 tractors although current production is 53 units, and last year 13,479 tractors were made at Beauvais including those coloured and badged Massey Ferguson, Challenger, Valtra and Iseki. The red main brand total was 13,048 units of which more than 1,700 ended up in the UK, behind the main market France and ahead of the third export market Germany. Two shifts per day could be

accommodated to meet predicted sales growth, although so far this has not been required. The production line includes 96 stations which means that at maximum speed, one tractor can be assembled from start to finish in one working shift. Massey Ferguson credits the local and regional community and authorities for contributing to the brand’s success since production started in Beauvais and joining the company to celebrate the site opening, and cut the ribbon were the

town’s mayor Caroline Cayeux and France’s Minister of State, attached to the Minister of Economy and Finance, Agnès Pannier-Runacher.

customer experience and believe 10 per cent growth by 2021 is realistic,” confirmed Thierry, adding that changes in legislation had led to reporting inaccuracies in terms of tractors sold per year. “In late 2017 we supplied a lot of tractors ahead of the new ‘mother

regulations’, but these were retailed later by dealers in the first quarter of 2018, so overall 2018 reported figures are distorted.” “By the time I retire,” added Mr Richenhagen, without specifying a time scale or likely successor, “I hope we will be producing 20,000 tractors per year.” ■

Extending the benefits of precision farming technology New Holland will distribute its Agxtend precision farming products and services through its dealer network.

New Holland Agriculture will distribute the Agxtend brand launched by CNH Industrial, focused exclusively on aftermarket precision farming technology solutions, says the company. Agxtend will provide exclusive productivity-enhancing precision farming technologies, which will be of benefit throughout the entire cropping cycle, it adds. Agxtend products and services will be distributed through its dealer network and a phased rollout is expected throughout the first quarter of 2019 across the EMEA (Europe, Middle East and Africa) region. A full suite of services will be available, comprising pre-purchase assistance, training and ongoing support

services to facilitate customers with the continual optimisation of these technologies, says the company. The Agxtend range of products can be fully integrated into New Holland Agriculture’s existing PLM precision farming platforms: CropXplorer is a new system that uses algorithms to determine fertiliser rates based on crop needs. Two high accuracy optical sensors can capture both biomass and N needs of crops, while the ‘Map + Overlay’ mode allows farmers to use yield potential maps in combination with sensor’s on-the-go measurements. New SoilXplorer is designed to help growers realise the full potential of their soils, says New Holland. It consists of a contactless soil sensor using electromagnetism to measure soil conductivity at 4 different depths: 0–25, 15–60, 55–95 and 85–115cm. These measurements can be used for two main precision farming purposes: Accurate soil

mapping to record soil heterogeneity and determine soil type maps and relative water content maps; Variable depth soil cultivation determines depth of compaction areas and controls the working depth of tillage implements to work at full depth only where it is needed.

Crop sensor The company’s new crop NIR sensor can be mounted on all types of equipment including forage harvesters, combines, balers and slurry tankers. When used on harvesting machines, it allows farmers to determine yield moisture as well as crop components, including ADF (acid detergent fibre), NDF (neutral detergent fibre), starch, ash and crude fat. All these parameters deliver data to optimise both the selling price of harvest produce and cattle nutrition for dairy production, points out New Holland. Used on a slurry tanker, the sensor can monitor the amount of nitrogen applied in fields, resulting in better targeting of slurry fertiliser applications, in environmental

protection and reduced slurry transport costs. Xpower is an electro-herbicide that allows farmers to replace chemicals with electricity for weeding and pre-harvest desiccation of crops. Electricity is an efficient, effective and environmentally friendly method for weeding, since it’s capable of destroying the plant down to the roots without having to apply potentially harmful chemicals on crops, says the company. It requires two applicators to be in contact with the weeds to burn them. Application booms are available in working widths from 1.2–3.0m. Finally, FarmXtend is a weather app working with a complete set of connected sensors. It enables farmers to monitor in-field weather data by sensing temperature and humidity at a height of 1m and at crop level, as well as recording rainfall and measuring soil moisture and temperature at different depths. The app can support growers’ decision-making process such as determining the optimal time for spraying. ■ 64100

Open Day t Armatrac tractors and Bobcat excavators and loaders featured at Suffolk Farm Machinery Ltd’s January open day. (l-r) Bobcat London representative Phil Stoneham; Suffolk Farm Machinery’s Jason Garrard and Richard Carr; Clover Farm Services Dwayn Clover, and from Suffolk Farm Machinery - Suzie Carr and Graham Catling. q There was ample opportunity to try out Bobcat excavators and a JMac backhoe loader.

Suffolk dealer shows off its innovative brands Since starting trading in 2015, Suffolk Farm Machinery Ltd has built a successful business importing and distributing a selection of leading and innovative brands. David Williams attended its first open day. The late January open days provided an opportunity for new and existing customers to find out about the wide range of products offered, many of which were available to test drive. Among the established brands were Hawe Wester field transfer trailers for which Suffolk Farm Machinery is the sole UK importer and Laumetris high capacity bulk produce and flat trailers, also solely represented in the UK by the company. Other brands include Reiter grass and forage pick-ups; Saphir loader attachments, silage clamp rollers and grabs, and Fransgard mowers, rakes and tedders. New to the dealer is the Armatrac tractor franchise for Suffolk, Essex, Herts, Cambs and south Norfolk and the Bobcat loader and handler franchise for Suffolk and Norfolk. Completely new products to the UK include JMac wheeled loader

back-hoes, available with conventional or equal-sized front and rear wheels, which were demonstrated at the event.

Expanding portfolio “We have built up a great selection of carefully chosen franchises and products to offer customers,” explained managing director Richard Carr. “As the sole importer for several brands, we can supply these throughout the UK, including through our appointed sub-dealers of which the number is increasing.” The Bobcat franchise was taken on by Richard with the purchase of longestablished dealer RG Amies. “Richard Amies knows everything there is to know about Bobcat products with an excellent reputation throughout the region,” explained Richard. “We purchased the business including the site and workshops at Brundish, and Richard Amies will remain involved

A wide selection of products from all the dealer’s franchises was displayed.

sharing his expertise and carrying out servicing and repairs. Acquiring the business and the Bobcat franchise opens up a whole new market for us across Norfolk and Suffolk.”

Plant and industrial With the Bobcat and JMac ranges appealing to industrial and construction users, Richard Carr has set up a separate division; Suffolk Plant Machinery to cater for their needs. “We all operate as one business from the same location but Suffolk Farm Machinery will focus mainly on agricultural users and products whereas Suffolk Plant Machinery will look after construction equipment and the hire fleet.”

Additions to the team Sales and range growth has required investment in additional team members and a new sales and operations manager, Jason Garrard has joined from a background operating plant for a drainage and groundwork contractor. He will also help establish the Armatrac brand in the region. An additional service engineer will start with the company in early March, having previously been employed by a local main dealer. The new appointment will also include responsibility as a product specialist and demonstrator. “Almost everything we offer is specialist machinery requiring specialist back-up and we are ensuring we can provide that service 24 hours

per day,” explained Richard. “We are building an excellent reputation and sales are resulting from recommendation by existing users which is encouraging.”

Armatrac added For many open day visitors it was the first opportunity to find out about Armatrac tractors having seen the range only at national shows in the past. “It offers a good, sensible package and when potential users start looking closely at the specification including Perkins engines, ZF transmission and Bosch electronics along with a two-year standard warranty which is extendable, they quickly recognise that these tractors will perform well, prove reliable and provide a cost-effective solution for smaller arable, livestock and mixed farms. “A brand new Armatrac with a manufacturer’s full warranty is available for a similar cost to a six or seven yearold premium brand machine with an unknown history. Within a few years these tractors will be a common sight across the UK.” Richard said smaller Armatrac tractors will also appeal for golf courses, grounds-care and equestrian applications and are a great alternative to unknown second-hand machines.” Laumetris trailers have proved a success for the dealer and Richard commented that he has sold 15 of the high specification products so far in the UK. “We have a silage contractor running 3; having bought one to try and then adding another 2 as the first so impressed him. Hawe Wester field transport trailers have also been supplied, mainly for continued over...

The latest Bobcat 43-80 telescopic handler was at the event. “It’s compact but has huge capacity,” explained Bobcat of London sales engineer Phil Stoneham (left) who is pictured with Richard Carr. “Like our other machines it has a reassuring 3-year, 3,000-hour warranty and this is the first of this model in the UK. It’s been an immediate success and the first person who tried it ordered immediately after the demonstration. We are offering an attractive zero per cent finance deal over 3 years on all telehandlers and excavators currently which is proving popular.”

Airless skid-steer loader tyres on display Michelin displayed a selection of tyres, including its new X Tweel SSL (Skid Steer Loader), air-less radial tyre. High strength, poly resin spokes carry the load and absorb impacts, providing support, cushioning and advantages over a solid alternative. It includes reduced weight on the skid steer’s drivetrain, provides the comfort of a radial pneumatic tyre and the ability to travel up to 16kph carrying 2t per unit. “They are a straight swap for classic 12x16.5 or 10x16.5 skid-steer loader tyres,” explained Michelin agricultural account manager for the south-east, Tom Saunders. “The X Tweel product is also available for fitting to zero-turn mowers, as its ability to withstand frequent travel over kerbs, and punctures from glass bottles and other debris encountered on a typical grass verge is a major advantage.” The cost of a 12x16.5 X Tweel SSL in the All Terrain (AT) pattern is approximately £990/corner. The X Tweel SSL can be re-treaded when the original tread is worn, extending the working life and reducing costs. Tom is pictured (right) with the X Tweel SSL, and with local tyre supplier K&M Tyres director, Mark Bond. “We have been trading for approximately 15 years and our company is the Michelin Exelagri distributor for Suffolk and south Norfolk, with full access to Michelin, Kleber and Taurus tyre ranges,” explained Mark. “We have demand for all three brands and tend to supply Michelin to those needing premium performance, Kleber is our mid-range tyre and Taurus provides a cost-effective solution for less demanding applications but with the full back-up of Michelin. “As a Michelin Exelagri dealer we have access to exclusive offers, including the end user cash back offer that is running until 30th April and the zero per cent finance offer that is in place all year round on Kleber and Michelin agricultural tyres. The latest VF and IF high-performance tyres are in growing demand from arable farms and contractors. The Michelin XMCL 460/70R24 telehandler tyre is our fastest-selling tyre currently, and we provide a supply, fitting and repair service across Norfolk, Suffolk and north Essex using a fleet of eight fully-equipped vans.”

silage, grain and sugar beet transport. “It’s great quality German engineering and a respected brand,” said Richard. “We have more than 20 out working now. Premium components ensure reliability and performance. Resale values are superb too, so the cost of ownership remains low.” Saphir attachments are another quality German brand explained Richard, adding that the tractormounted silage clamp rollers have proved particularly popular. Maxam mowers, from New Zealand, are available in 2.5 or 3.3m working widths and can cut, swath or spread reducing the need for a separate tedding operation. “They were designed as a field topper and spreading the grass relieves bunched material which can decay and kill vegetation underneath,” explained Richard. It takes just 5 minutes to swap from spreading to swathing and the cutting angle ensures that 95 per cent of the grass driven over by the tractor wheels is lifted and cut, even in wet conditions.” A new Fransgard rotary chain flail has been added to the range and Richard said he expects it to be popular. “With our northern area distributer we imported and supplied almost 200 Fransgard products last year. It’s a real success.”

Materials handling In the past the main Bobcat products supplied through RG Amies have been tracked excavators and skid-steer loaders, but with Richard Carr’s focus on agriculture it is expected that telescopic handlers will feature more

heavily. “The latest models are superb,” he explained, “with features which appeal strongly to agricultural users. We believe that being able to offer these through our farm machinery division will prove very successful.” The new JMac range – manufactured in Turkey – includes wheeled back-hoe loaders and 360-degree tracked excavators. “It’s a perfect fit for us with the Bobcat line-up,” explained Richard. “There is strong demand for tracked excavators and we offer Bobcat up to 8.5t then JMac from 14t upward. The back-hoe loaders with equal sized front and rear wheels have immediately intrigued potential users and we have requests for demonstrations from contractors specialising in drainage where operating in muddy conditions is a frequent requirement.” RG Amies operated a large fleet of hire machines across East Anglia and Richard intends to continue this popular service, and add JMac machines too, providing a greater range of handling solutions for customers. “We had a very successful first open day and received enquiries and orders for products across the range, and requests for demonstrations including grassland machinery as soon as the weather allows. “The Armatrac tractors proved a highlight and several potential users came especially to view them resulting in a confirmed sale on the day of one of the tractors on show. We enjoyed great support from our suppliers and customers and we are especially grateful to James Forrest who allowed us to stage the event on his farm.” ■

Attractive spec for local contractor

Contract hay producer Oliver Styles (left) is pictured with Richard Carr at the event. “I operate within a 20 mile radius of Debenham, mid-Suffolk,” explained Oliver, “producing hay for land owners, mainly for equestrian use, and making and selling conventional straw bales. My growing business means I need to upgrade my current mower and the Fransgard looks well made and is competitively priced making it an attractive option. I already run a Fransgard hay-bob which performs well.”

News

Robert Tomlinson (1957–2019)

Robert Tomlinson, the founder of Tomlinson Groundcare Ltd, near Stowmarket, Suffolk passed away on 20th January following a brave battle with cancer, aged 61. Robert was born and lived at nearby Buxhall, growing up on his parent’s poultry farm, helping out from a young age with the chicks and chickens, as well as caring for goats, geese and turkeys. He also assisted his beekeeper father with the hives and honey making. He attended school locally, and recognising his passion and skill lay with machinery and understanding how things worked, he went on to study agricultural engineering at Otley

College while apprenticing at Mitchell Rowlands at Buxhall. He then did a further year of study at Rycotewood College in Thame, Oxfordshire. In 1978 Robert joined Overland Machinery, and his lifelong obsession with the John Deere brand was founded. He started as an agricultural engineer, four years later becoming their parts manager and then as a salesman, heading up and specialising in the turf care equipment side of the business. In 1991, Overland decided to move away from the turf care side of John Deere and Robert was offered the franchise. On 1st March 1991 he began trading as Tomlinson Groundcare, operating from one small workshop and showroom on the family smallholding. In the following 28 years, the business has grown into the well-respected business it is today. Operating from large purpose built workshop and showroom, offering customers the space to try machines on the orchards and paddocks surrounding the premises. Robert was always keen to forge long lasting relationships with private domestic and professional customers. This has

been reiterated by the numerous letters and cards of condolences received by the family, mentioning how he had gone that little bit extra to ensure the customer was satisfied. On more than one occasion he would assist customers in predicaments they found themselves in; one instance was when he headed out immediately to rescue a brand new ride-on lawn mower which the customer had unfortunately driven into his moat within days of having it delivered – all with good humour and support. The Tomlinson Groundcare team has always been viewed as part of Robert’s extended family and now, headed by Adrian Brown, and still with family members involved in the team, the company is driven to continue to operate with the same ethos and passion that Robert started. Robert supported the local agricultural, game and country shows and prided himself with providing a well-presented stand, winning multiple trade stand prizes over the years. He was also very honoured to be South Suffolk Show President in 2016. He enjoyed banter with existing

customers and friends, and relished the opportunity to meet potential customers. Always willing to give his time to people and continually with a smile. The shows were indeed a highlight of his year. A keen Stowmarket Young Farmer, Robert made lifelong friends and he continued to support the Young Farmers as an advisory member for many years. His pastimes included skiing, hiking, walking and running – he completed the London Marathon in his 50th year. Robert was very proud of his daughters Becca, Jo and Vicky, and thrilled when his grandson Isaac was born in November 2017. His marriage to Sally, added four step sons to the family and twin grand daughters. A service of Thanksgiving for Robert was held at St Mary’s Church, Buxhall on 15th February and around 600 friends, customers and colleagues remembered and shared their memories of a very special man. His family and the Tomlinson team would like to thank everyone for the many cards, messages and support they have received.

Make the right choice for your farm dispersal sale Dispersal sales can be an invaluable means of disposing of unwanted kit and generate important cash proceeds, but they can also be nervewracking. John Rossiter of Hobbs Parker Auctioneers LLP, offers advice on ways to maximise benefit and minimise stress. Every farm dispersal sale comes with its own list of requirements and activities, including getting buyers to turn up on the day. There is no simple plan to follow, which is why the first step is an important one. Everything begins with a phone call. Whether you’re working to a tight deadline or considering your options, taking a look at what needs to be sold and why, and talking it all through with an expert auctioneer such as Hobbs Parker is the best place to start. You’ll then arrange to have your items appraised, which is an opportunity to discuss your requirements in more detail and get an idea of the potential of your sale. The majority of farm dispersal sales take place in the spring and autumn, fitting around the agricultural calendar, but we have auctions throughout the year. Check the flexibility of your

auctioneer in relation to your needs and make sure your sale is run at a time that will generate the best outcome for you. With the right level of organisation it’s possible to turn a clearance around within one month. There are a number of factors to consider: How many items you want to sell – is there enough for a standalone sale or should you merge with another? Are you selling specialised, targeted equipment? Does your site have the capacity to hold the sale

or do you need to transport items elsewhere (and will your auctioneer make those arrangements for you)? Even if you are in a hurry, these are important questions that you need answers to so your equipment can be pitched at the right time and to an appropriate audience. At peak times teams will be carrying out multiple auctions a week, meaning the ability to manage supply and demand is vital. The auctioneer’s database of potential customers needs

to include a high number of good leads, generated through experience and involvement in both machinery sales and other areas of the farming sector. We keep in regular contact with our customers through livestock auctions as well as dispersal sales, so we are confident that we’re getting the best price from each opportunity as it occurs. Dispersal sales are an invaluable way to sell unwanted equipment and improve cashflow – if you get things right from the start. ■

CABGUARD Highway plus

"We've run our tractors on the classic CabGuard™ and have never had an issue with the quality or robustness of the product, but have always been concerned of losing the guard to high speed travel on the roads that cover the Estate. As soon as I found out that APG had a new design in progress I was interested in what had been developed. Based on what was explained on the phone I liked the concept and asked the team at APG to put me first on the list. With the new CabGuard HighWay Plus™ fitted to our 18 plate Valtra T174, I immediately knew that this was a far superior product. The fact that after the first initial installation it would then just take seconds for an individual to remove and re-apply after cleaning.The fitting is clean, tidy and does not interfere with visibility from the tractor seat. All in all a good quality product, ensuring the tractor cab glass is protected from fast moving debris at all times.” James Brown, Farm Manager, South Pickenham Estates

Dealer Event

Essex dealer days reflect industry optimism In early February each year the UK’s largest dealer event attracts farmers, contractors, foresters and construction workers from across East Anglia and the south-east to Ulting in Essex. This year marked the 59th Doe Show and David Williams attended. Held the first week of February, the Doe Show marks the end of the pheasant shooting season and provides an opportunity for the dealer, farmers and estate owners to get together and discuss priorities for the coming year. The event has grown considerably over the years and brings together at one location products from all the main franchises of Case IH division Ernest Doe Power and New Holland division Ernest Doe, both part of the parent business Ernest Doe & Sons Ltd. Most product displays are static, with each supplier having its own stand space but there are also working demonstrations on the dealer’s farm at the rear of the depot. The latest Case IH and New Holland tractors perform cultivation tasks with a selection of implements, but a highlight for many is the annual vintage display, where Doe Triple D tractors, Fordson and Case tractors can be seen at work.

Busy three days “We are very lucky having this event to start our year,” commented sales director Graham Parker. “It’s a big investment for us but this year the level of enquiries and sales was the best since 2015. Because the event is over three days, there is an opportunity for customers to attend regardless of weather or other events and although often it is quieter on the third day, this year the number of enquiries received and orders placed was just as good as on the first day.” Ernest Doe Power general sales manager Gerald Silvey agreed. “It was

an excellent show for us resulting in a lot of business done at the event and many enquiries to follow up in the coming months. The Case IH tent proved popular with visitors and on the first day it was the busiest I have ever seen it. The latest Case IH 50-series combines were on display, with features to increase productivity and reduce driver effort, and feedback from those who had come especially to view them was extremely positive. Graham said ex-hire and second-hand equipment sold well and that even though there were a large number of Richard Western and Marshall trailers on offer, most sold during the three days with the remainder likely to be ordered within a week of the event finishing. Good, used grassland machinery was also very popular and Graham said that by the end of the third day the entire stock of mowers, rakes and tedders had been sold. New machinery was also in demand, and SIP grassland machinery was a highlight. “Taking on SIP has turned out to be a good decision for us, and it’s obvious from comments received and the increased levels of interest that the brand is gaining a strong reputation,” he said. Two new combines were sold, as well as most of the used harvesters on offer. “One customer noticed how well used combines were selling,” commented Graham, “and asked for a price for his current machine as a trade in. He called the next day to place an order for a new replacement.” New tractors sold included a New Holland T8 Smarttrax along

(l-r) A 1965 Doe 130 Triple-D, a 1961 Doe Triple-D and a 2019 Case IH Optum armed with a Kuhn 7f reversible plough demonstrated how primary cultivations have developed over more than 50 years.

with other Case IH and New Holland models. Graham said availability of the New Holland T6 mid-size model with DynamicCommand twin-clutch transmission has resulted in a high level of interest and increased sales, and is almost as smooth as a CVT and extremely efficient.

Planning ahead “What has become apparent is that many smaller family farms are investing in new machinery, and in particular new tractors. They are taking the opportunity to invest in future-proofing their businesses for the coming years with efficient, reliable machinery,” Graham continued. KRM fertiliser applicators, the range of Dal-Bo machinery and Maschio flail mowers all enjoyed a particularly successful event with record numbers of orders. Manitou handlers also attracted many enquiries from potential customers.

“We invested late last year in a large number of Marshall flat trailers which we knew were ideal for our customers,” commented Graham. “These were offered at a special price during the Doe Show and all sold before the end of the event. “Construction equipment also proved popular, with orders placed for excavators, dumpers and rollers, of which several excavators were ordered by farmers for ditching and estate maintenance applications. “It was an excellent show for us in terms of orders placed, but also the level of interest and serious enquiries from farmers planning ahead. Machinery often isn’t available off the shelf as it used to be, so leaving it late to order major items has become risky and it seems those in the industry are increasingly planning ahead and ordering replacement machines in plenty of time.” continued over...

Dealer Event New arena grader

...More on previous page The Case IH display area featured all the latest models from a Farmall 55 to a Magnum 340 Rowtrac.

Combines available for 2019 harvest Axial Flow 50-series combines are available for the first time for the 2019 harvest, following a successful launch and targeted demonstration last year. The machine displayed was awaiting delivery to a customer who committed without trying the latest innovations. “The 50-series models gain extra automation over previous 40-series versions,” explained product specialist Paul Freeman. “Structurally they are similar, including the engine power but even an average user should see at least 10 per cent extra productivity and some considerably more. “AFS Harvest Command ties in with systems such as automatic guidance to maximise productivity and some features are options while others are standard. “Among the options is hydraulic table angle adjustment, allowing the table to be tilted forward or back to optimise cutting and collecting performance in a range of crops and working conditions.” Feed rate control was available previously and operated by monitoring drive-line effort to assess the density of crop passing through the machine and grain losses to set working limits. An enhanced version is more sensitive, based on engine load measurements and very small changes are detected instantly for optimum working efficiency. “It’s far more reactive,” explained Paul. “When there is the opportunity to increase the travel speed the machine takes it.” Additional sensors in the sieve box monitor air pressure. “A thick layer of grain on top of the sieves increases the air pressure, and the management system decides whether to open or close the sieves, adjust the fan speed or vary the travel speed to find the optimum, based on the priority set by the user. Options include maximum output, optimum grain quality or minimum losses, and grain cameras using visible and invisible light sources monitor the clean grain elevator and detect starch from cracked grains, foreign bodies in the sample and other criteria to ensure quality meets the standard selected,” he explained. Threshing quality is also adjustable from the cab by adjusting the vane angle to either restrict crop flow keeping it within the rotor area for longer, or allow it to move through faster for increased productivity and reduced straw damage. Pictured with the new 50-series Axial Flow are (l-r) Case IH digital marketer Liam Bond, product demonstrator Ed Watson and Paul Freeman.

On the Logic stand sales representative Oliver Minns (left) is pictured explaining features of the new Surface-Pro arena grader. It has a 1.5m working width and 2 rows of spring tines with operating angle adjustment in 3 stages. Electric raise and lowering is standard and the model displayed had an optional perimeter plough, to pull material in from the edges. Pictured with Oliver and the new grader are James Perry who farms near Stansted, Essex with his son Jack and father Steve.

Strong interest in verge cutter

On the Spearhead stand a new front-mounted verge cutter was attracting considerable interest from farmers and contractors. Pictured with the Rolliflail HD Offset 120 are (l-r) Stuart Hardy and Robert Bush of verge cutting specialists Bush Wheeler Services Ltd, based at Goffs Oak, Herts and Spearhead area sales manager Jack Norton.

Impressed by the latest combine at the event was young Jesse Cornwell with his mother Tanya, cousin Jamie Cornwell (in the pram), and uncle James Cornwell who farms at Tiptree, Essex.

Machinery First showing of new sprayers

Combine headers proving popular At last year’s Doe Show MacDon combine headers were shown for the first time and after the first full season of sales through the dealer, the products are proving popular. “Extra productivity is the main advantage,” commented product specialist Mike Van Den Bosch (right), with the dealer’s general parts manager Andy Bloomfield. “A wet harvest in 2017 meant farmers were keen to improve performance in difficult conditions, although those who bought our headers for the 2018 harvest which turned out to be relatively easy and dry, were also impressed by the additional threshing performance resulting from the improved crop feed. Ernest Doe & Sons has supplied versions for Case IH and New Holland combines across the trading area and the most popular working widths to date have been 35 and 40ft, although orders for the coming harvest have all been 40ft so far.”

The Doe Show features attractively priced ex-hire fleet equipment including tractors, combines and trailers, which always prove popular.

New Kuhn products included Oceanis 2 trailed sprayers available from 5,000–7,700-litres capacity and with 24–48m booms. The new model replaces previous Oceanis versions and the Doe Show was the first dealer event at which it was shown. Pump options are 500-litres/min piston diaphragm or 700-litres/min centrifugal and the sprayer is available with Canbus or Isobus technology. Four-point suspension operates in the field and on the road ensuring great towing performance. Additional options include Multispray Duo offering single nozzle section control and automatic nozzle switching between two nozzles to maintain optimal droplet size and for extra flexibility Multispray Quattro can be specified providing switching between four nozzles. Models of 36m and above feature variable geometry booms as standard – an option previously, and ensuring accurate contour following. Boom Assist Pro is a further option allowing height control by ground or crop following and a hybrid mode averages distance above variable crops to ensure a smooth boom ride. Also displayed for the first time was the Optima XL 5000 shallow disc cultivator available in 3–4m mounted, and 4–5m trailed versions currently with more sizes to be added. Large 620mm discs are standard and additional packer options include double-U and V-line. On-the-move depth control is standard now whereas it was an option on the previous model. “It’s longer overall, for reduced bounce at higher working speeds,” pointed out Kuhn UK crop protection and establishment specialist Will Waterer, who is pictured with the new products at the event.

Dealer Event Narrow folding boom now available

Strong demand for grass machinery

The new Hardi Delta ...More on previous page Force 24m boom was displayed on a Navigator Hawk trailed sprayer. Previously the Delta Force boom was available only in a 36m spray width, having replaced the previous Force boom line-up. Narrow folding is a feature which means all models up to the 39m fold to a transport width of just 2.5m. Auto Terrain is an option with 3 or 5 ultrasonic sensors working with a chassis sensor to control the boom angle. Accelerometers mid-way along the boom measure movement and are used to counteract yaw. “It’s been a very busy start to our year,” commented sales director Peter Wiles (pictured), “and the Ernest Doe Power sales team has received considerable interest in our latest sprayers.”

Interest in power harrows and grass maintenance machinery meant a busy show for the Opico sales specialists. “Our grass harrows, the Sward Slitter and Sward Lifter have all been in demand across Ernest Doe’s operating area,” explained territory manager Glenn Bootman, who is pictured (right) with Opico Maschio product manager David Day. “The grass maintenance season is just starting, and we expect to be very busy in the coming months, especially in the southern sales areas where grassland and livestock farms rely heavily on our products.”

Latest fertiliser applicator shown

Efficient chopping of cover crops

The latest version of Teagle’s Centerliner fertiliser applicator was shown. Available in a base SX version, as the mid-spec SXE with Isobus compatibility, or the top specification SXi with weigh cells, an Isobus option and compatibility with most manufacturer mapping systems, the new spreaders offer improvements for users including better sight glasses in the hopper front and a new version of the Easytronic remote control. The latest spreader is pictured with Teagle area sales representative Chris White.

The Dal-Bo Maxicut 600 was launched in 2011, but increased use of cover crops has resulted in dramatic recent sales growth. “It’s available in working widths from 3–9m,” commented UK sales manager Steve Atkin. “It’s an economical and quick means of chopping cover crops, maize stalks and oilseed rape stubble and Ernest Doe Power sales representatives have taken several bookings for demonstrations for this autumn already. Our products are extremely popular with farmers in the dealer’s sales area, including our range of high performance rolls.”

Sales growth for seedbed cultivator

Impressive tool display The impressive Sealey tools and workshop equipment display included exclusive offers available only at the Doe Show and, as in previous years, customers took advantage of the opportunity to purchase the quality tools at very attractive prices.

Lemken products are sold through Ernest Doe in Suffolk, Essex and Norfolk and through Ernest Doe Power south of the Thames and UK sales manager Paul Creasy (above) explained that sales of the Karund mounted seedbed harrow had increased recently as demand for a light seedbed cultivator for sugar beet and other spring crops has grown. The Karat tine cultivator with quick-change feet is also proving popular due to its versatility for autumn and spring crop establishment, working after the plough or direct into stubble.

Dealer Event Affordable alternative to used tractors

...More on previous page pq New Holland display areas inside and out were busy as customers found out about the latest products.

Optimisation system proves popular

Displayed were new S-series New Holland T6 and T7 tractors. S-series includes cost-effective entry-level specification, allowing the purchaser to upgrade with any additional features needed. “The main components are the same as standard specification models,” explained tractor product specialist Tim Lowden, “but without any extras it is available for approximately £7,000– £10,000 less. Only RangeCommand 40kph transmission is available and there are 3 models in the T7 range – the T7.165S, T7.195S and T7.215S and in the T6 range just a T6.125S, none of which have power boost. “Most sold so far have replaced main tractors of 10 years old or so on mixed and livestock farms. They provide a practical and affordable alternative to a low hour second-hand or ex-hire machine.” Shown for the first time was the new T6-180 6-cylinder DynamicCommand. “It’s the only one in the country currently and deliveries to dealers won’t start until April this year. Many arable farmers like the 6-cylinder option for its power delivery and extra weight and with DynamicCommand dual-clutch transmission it is a superb tractor for field work,” he added. Tim (right) is pictured with Ernest Doe area sales representative Chris Scott.

All-new cab glass protection

More than 50 per cent of new CR combines ordered for the 2019 harvest have the latest Intellisense harvest optimisation system, reported New Holland harvester product specialist Nigel Honeyman, who is pictured with CNH industrial finance representatives Francesca Jacobs (left) and Anna Strozek. “We ran a CR10-90 demonstrator equipped with Intellisense during the 2018 harvest which impressed those who tried it, but most of those who have ordered it have done so without even seeing it in action,” commented Nigel. “It will help users gain a greater return on their combine investment and most will see at least 10 per cent additional productivity. It optimises output and it’s been interesting to see how many of those who have tried it have been amazed at the true capacity of their machines having operated combines without the system previously way below their full potential. The benefit gains will depend on the operator, but even those with considerable experience will see significant advantages during long working days.” Agricultural and horticultural contractor Craig Reader trades as CR Contracting and is based at Burwell, Cambs. He is pictured with his son James who was keen to inspect the New Holland CR10-90 combine.

APG Applied Protection Guards manufactures and supplies the Cabguard protective screens which fit over tractor cab doors and windows, preventing glass damage during tasks such as hedge cutting, mowing and forestry applications. The original version fastened on with suction cups but an all-new Cabguard Highway Plus version is easier to fit and remove using a set of semi-permanent fixing brackets which remain fastened to the cab even when the transparent polycarbonate screens are removed, saving considerable time, explained director James Green. Typical cost for a set of screens to fit a New Holland T6 or T7 cab door are £216 for the original specification or £336 for the Highway Plus. The protective screens are fitted with a gap between them and the original cab glass, preventing condensation and providing room to move and absorb impact from stones and other debris without shattering the cab glazing.

Machinery

New brand proves a success SIP grass harvest machinery quickly proved a success for Ernest Doe & Sons, which took on the franchise in late 2017. “User feedback has been very positive,” said dealer area sales manager Derek Peck who is pictured (right) with SIP sales director Martin Holden. “We had some excellent demonstration days last year, allowing potential customers to see the machines working for the first time and the mowers in particular have impressed users with their extreme resistance to blocking, while rakes and tedders proved popular too. Last year it was a relatively new brand for most who enquired about it, but we have even more

demonstrations lined up as a result of customer requests for the coming season and expect it to be a very busy spring.” Martin said the Airswath belt merger was available for front mounting last year, but now a rear mounted version can also be supplied allowing up to 8m of forage to be swathed in a single pass. “The belt merger helps prevent soil, muck and slurry residues from being picked up within the swath and transferred to the silage clamp,” he explained. “Contamination can cause serious problems but the belt merger provides cleaner forage and enables far higher work rates than a conventional rake. Working speeds up to 15–18kph are easily achieved so there are significant benefits for users.” “We had a really good first season with the SIP range,” added Ernest Doe Power Dartford depot sales manager Nick Booth. “It’s quality machinery at a very competitive price and many farmers and contractors More over page... travelled from Kent to the show to view the range.”

Machinery High demand for DD rings

...More on previous page Great Plains genuine parts are available through the Kverneland Group, and were promoted at the show. Parts technical support specialist Kevin Waddingham (left) and service support specialist Andy Lake were kept busy at the event as customers took advantage of out of season offers for replacement wearing parts. “We have been really busy,” commented Kevin. “Customers prefer buying genuine parts for the guaranteed quality and at the Doe Show DD rings have been in especially high demand from farmers and contractors getting organised for the year ahead and ordering parts which will be used this autumn.”

Larger reach models most popular “Bigger hedges cut less frequently during shorter hedge trimming seasons are typical of many farms,” explained Shelbourne Reynolds sales and marketing director Neil Smith who is pictured with one of his company’s latest hedge cutters. “Larger 6.0–6.5m reach models are most popular and forward reach is being specified more often as it offers more comfortable operation with better work rates due to the improved operator view. Most sold for farms tend to be linkage mounted whereas contractors opt for axle mounted models and although there is a perception that linkage mounted versions can be fitted and removed more quickly, modern axle-mounted models are actually not a lot different.”

Dealer Event Latest cleaning equipment on show

On the Karcher stand a display of power brushes, pressure washers and steam cleaners allowed visitors to view the latest products and assess features and benefits. Karcher representatives John Fisher (left) and Tom Miller said hot water cleaners were proving especially popular. Several orders were placed during the first day for the compact HDS6/12 model which was available at a promotional offer price.

First showing for bale spreader The new Midi Lite bale spreader by Spread-a-bale was displayed for the first time at a dealer event, having been launched earlier this year. It’s designed for smaller loaders up to 1,000kg capacity and weighs only 600kg unladen. “It takes full size 8x4x3 bales,” explained UK sales manager Dave Bull (pictured). “The current Maxi, Midi and Mini models remain very popular with users and this lighter version enables those with smaller tractors and handlers to gain the same benefits.”

Successful event for tillage product firm UK-based tillage product manufacturer Cousins enjoyed a very successful Doe Show and company representatives reported particular interest in wide sets of rolls as well as cultivation equipment for spring crop establishment. “We have seen a definite switch to spring cultivations as more spring-sown crops are included in the rotation,” commented managing director Laura Cousins, who is pictured with Cousins product specialist David Howard (left) and Ernest Doe Power Dartford depot sales manager Nick Booth. “The precision seedbed harrow has been especially popular for sugar beet and vegetable establishment, as well as for preparing seedbeds after the plough,” she added.

News Tong Engineering’s next generation barrel washer.

Next generation washer plus new dealer Lincolnshire based Tong Engineering has revealed its next generation barrel washer. One of the key advances in the new barrel washer design is a new direct-drive, inverter-controlled barrel drive shaft with heavy-duty coupling, says the business. “By replacing the chain and sprocket drive system with a new direct-driven shaft, we have really made a significant development in the simplicity, and ultimately longevity, of the barrel washer’s drive system,” explains managing director Edward Tong. “Our Blue Inverter technology direct drive systems mean power from the motor is being used efficiently, with no reductions and fewer moving parts, resulting in a very energy efficient and low maintenance machine.” An all-new washer door will now bring users even greater control of crop flow from the washer, with a split-door design that is easily and fully adjustable via electric actuators. Like the new barrel shaft

drive system, this door design also ensures a chain and sprocket-free mechanism that is efficient and low maintenance. The barrel washer also features a new, thicker stainless steel barrel drum, which is perforated for the gentlest handling of crop. Manufactured in barrel lengths ranging from 1.2-5.0m and barrel widths from 600–1,500mm, the barrel washer can be specified as a stand-alone unit or integrated into a new or existing handling line. In addition, the company has announced that Ken Jackson, of Jackson Machinery Services near Taunton, has been appointed official dealer for Tong Engineering in Somerset. “Maintaining an active network of approved dealers and representatives helps us to ensure the very best customer experience for Tong customers throughout the UK and worldwide,” says Tong Engineering managing director Edward Tong. ■

Company selected for China innovation trip Dorset based company Evans and Pearce has been selected to be part of the Global Business Innovation Programme’s technology visit to China this month. Managing director Rob White (right) applied to be one of the 15 nationally selected companies, after recently returning from a visit to see customers in New Zealand. The China trip will provide opportunities to meet Chinese agri-tech companies and research organisations. China’s agriculture sector accounts for only 9% of GDP, yet the industry employs over 320 million people. China has to feed a fifth of the world’s population, from only a

tenth of its arable land. “This really is a unique opportunity, which I am thrilled to have been selected to take part in” Rob said. “I am sure it will be a huge learning curve. The chance to visit a research and development centre, discuss agricultural science and technology developments and the challenges they face, is one that as a farming enthusiast and secondly, a business owner, is truly exciting. “It would be great to think some of our knowledge of crop ventilation may help China store crops more efficiently, and in doing so reduce any wastage.” ■

Tuff ’s new T500 is a third-generation 4G-enabled handset. It comes with a two-year warranty which includes unlimited free screen replacements.

Rugged mobile phone manufacturer Tuff Phones has started 2019 with the dual launch of its new Tuff T500 handset and a multi-network SIM solution, which the company says will improve network coverage for rural workers. “Connectivity for rural and remote workers is often an issue as farm workers can frequently find themselves in dead spots without a signal or in situations where a network operator might provide decent signal strength in one area of a farm but a relatively weak or non-existent signal elsewhere,” said CEO Kevin Aspinall Nessling. “Our multi-network SIM provides a solution to this by bringing connectivity via the strongest signal from three major networks: Three, O2 and Vodafone.” The T500, the first of Tuff ’s third generation of 4G-enabled handsets to be launched, runs on the recent Android 8.1 operating system with a 1.5 GHz Quad-Core processor with features including face recognition

unlock and fingerprint security. It also has a Sony 13MP CMOS sensor camera and a 5000mAh battery which means the device will last for days without a charge. The device is housed in a military grade, fibreglassreinforced, rubberised body with a 5.7in Gorilla Glass screen and is IP69 certified waterproof and dustproof. The T500 comes with a two-year warranty and unlimited free screen replacements in case of any breakages during the warranty period. “The pairing of the multi-network SIM with our third generation of devices offers a step change in rugged mobile technology and connectivity,” added Kevin Aspinall Nessling. “For the same cost as a single network contract, agricultural workers can now enjoy better network coverage within a smartphone that will withstand the harshest of environments while delivering the kind of capability which up until now could only be found in mainstream smartphones on the high street.” ■

Seedbed success – before or after beet crop Lincolnshire growers David (left) and Paul Metheringham.

The Combi-Disc offers the farm flexibility as a machine which can be used as a straight subsoiler or discharrow, or any combination of the two.

When it comes to choosing the right cultivation kit, flexibility is key for Lincs growers Paul and David Metheringham. With sugar beet as a cornerstone of the rotation and soils varying from light sands to silty loams, tillage tools are purchased based on their versatility and ability to handle a range of cultivations scenarios – ideally with one machine capable of a number of roles. The farm is spread over 3 sites covering 465ha and the business runs

a 4-year rotation including wheat, oilseed rape and sugar beet. The land is in both ELS and HLS environmental schemes, with a close eye kept on soil management. “We can’t control the weather but with an extended drilling season postbeet harvest we need to be confident we can get crops in the ground, even in a wetter autumn and winter,” explains Paul Metheringham. “Last year we were lucky again with dry, relatively easy conditions but when drilling wheat in January, wet,

heavy cultivations can be a reality.” The brothers have invested in minimum tillage cultivations kit for working the majority of land, while retaining a plough in the armoury for back-up if conditions require the topsoil turning in a wet year. In 2018, the farm had a newly purchased combination drill in the shed and it was agreed that a fresh cultivator was also needed for seedbed creation before and after the sugar beet crop. With a one-pass cultivator in the

fleet already, the mission was to find a machine that could subsoil at a deeper level, while being able to create a surface tilth. It also needed to be lighter and easier to pull in difficult conditions. The farm runs a Fendt 724, a John Deere 6215R and a New Holland TS100, so with maximum pulling power of 240hp, a machine was required that could handle the lighter, wetter land instead of always needing to use the plough. “While our sugar beet contractor continued over...

runs the harvester on low pressure tyres, these are still massive machines that can cause significant compaction,” says David. “We grow 65ha of beet to supply the local factory at Newark and needed a subsoiler to loosen the ground but decided a multi-purpose machine would be more adaptable to also give us a one-pass operation.” After various demonstrations, a 3m mounted He-Va Combi-Disc was chosen as the best tool for the job, courtesy of dealer Lincolnshire Motors. With 5 hydraulic auto-reset tines which subsoil to a 400mm depth, and 510mm diameter scalloped Sabre discs to produce a tilth, the combination cultivator has a V-profile press roller to consolidate and leave a weather-proof finish, making it the ideal tool for the

job. “The Combi-Disc’s main role is seedbed creation before and after the beet crop and this is where it’s highly versatile and adaptable,” explains David. “We can lift the legs out of work and just use the discs to move the soil lightly after a wheat crop, creating a seedbed for the beet which is not too fine to prevent soil blowing as we are quite exposed on some drier, sandy land. This helps leave some of the straw on top while still creating a nice even finish. However, when we need to go in more aggressively after beet harvest we can use the discs to break a pan if the soil is dry or alternatively subsoil if there is deeper compaction. “The beauty of the machine is that it is hydraulically adjustable from the cab so, with the flick of a switch, we can change the settings on-the-move to adapt to field conditions. This was a key factor in our purchasing decision, alongside the Combi-Disc’s auto-reset legs. At the time of buying, it was the best machine on the market.” Bog-oaks are a regular problem on some of the land and it is not uncommon to hit obstacles, even during shallow cultivations. “With previous cultivators we were frequently hitting roots and breaking

shear-bolts,” continues David. “That would then involve considerable wasted time fixing machines and getting back to work. With the Combi-Disc we can cover about 14ha a day with minimal interruptions thanks to the hydraulic auto-reset legs. They literally trip straight back into work after making contact with bog oaks, protecting the machine and allowing us to keep going.” He keeps a regular eye on the pressure gauge and the hydraulics are tweaked depending on the land and conditions. If there’s a chance of obstacles it is set at a lower pressure but if it is dry and hard it can be increased to stop the machine bouncing and maintain a consistent working depth. Likewise when pulling up

headlands and tramline wheelings, the operator can hydraulically alter the settings to keep the legs deeper. It might require a bit more pulling but it ensures the job is done effectively. The only issue the brothers have found with the Combi-Disc is that the tines can block up if there is a lot of surface trash, as there are no discs on the front to break down any tops. This could be overcome with a trailed machine, which can have leading discs in front of the subsoiling legs, but the manoeuvrability and overall flexibility of the mounted machine makes up for this and the farm has benefitted from having one machine which can be used as a straight subsoiler or discharrow, or any combination of the two.

Electric tractor powered by cable Development of an electric cable-powered tractor offers new opportunities for farms to supply and use their own energy. John Deere’s GridCON tractor offers up to 400hp. The manufacturer’s first fully electric tractor, known as the SESAM (Sustainable Energy Supply for Agricultural Machinery) was revealed in 2016. The GridCON tractor looks very different to its predecessor, as it features no cab and no rows of batteries underneath the bonnet. It is the first vehicle to be fully electric, permanently cable powered and capable of fully autonomous operation in the field. Based on a John Deere 6210R tractor, GridCON uses a cable connection from the field border to the machine, which transfers power continuously at over 300kW. A 100kW electric motor powers the IVT transmission, and there is an additional outlet for implements powered by a 200kW electric motor. A drum fixed to the tractor carries up to 1,000m of cable, although the length can be extended if required. In the field, the cable is fed out and reeled in while guided by a robot arm

to keep the operation friction free and at low load. An intelligent guidance system is also used to prevent the tractor running into or over the cable. At work, the tractor follows preset rows fully autonomously at operating speeds of up to just over 12mph. The vehicle can also be guided manually using a remote control, which is particularly useful when manoeuvring the tractor to start work on field

borders for example. A power supply of 2.5kV AC is required, and the GridCON tractor uses a 700V DC bus for electric power distribution both onboard and for implements. The machine employs a cooling infrastructure for off-board electrical use, while total efficiency of the drivetrain is in the region of 85%. Total empty weight of the working prototype GridCON tractor including

cable drum and robot arm is about 8.5t, so similar to a conventional John Deere 6195R tractor but with twice as much power. Research engineers are aiming to reduce the weight further by at least 1t. Other benefits include noiseless and emission-free operation and 50% reduction in machine and operating costs compared to battery-powered tractors. ■

Drills & Drilling

Vaderstad Rapid A series drills are available with up to 8m working widths.

Lemken’s Solitair 9 series pneumatic drill is available in mounted and semi-mounted versions.

Power on the land Although various forms of reduced tillage have been adopted on many farms, there is still a big acreage grown with traditional cultivations, but plenty of drill options are available to suit all the establishment methods, writes Mike Williams. The Vaderstad Rapid drill is available in three series, all providing seedbed preparation, levelling, drilling and reconsolidation in a single pass with the versatility to drill directly into stubble, after plough based traditional cultivations or in a minimum tillage sequence. The three series start with the Rapid 330 and 400 C/S models with 3 and 4m working widths, 3,000and 4,350-litre hopper sizes and 90hp minimum tractor requirement, and at the top of the range are the A600 and 800 models with 6 and 8m widths, 6,000-litre hopper capacity and needing 240hp plus. All the Rapid drills work at 125mm row spacing and a special coulter design provides depth adjustment from the cab with a high operating pressure capability for dealing with varied ground conditions. Vaderstad also offers the Spirit pneumatic drill range with extra seeding precision features including depth control for individual rows and the coulters have a unique suspension with pressure adjusted from the cab.

Best selling tine drill Weaving Machinery’s drill options include the Tine Drill for both plough based cultivations and minimum tillage. Said to be the UK’s best selling tine type drill, it has 4 rows of auto-set tines at 12.5cm spacing and is available in 7 widths from 3.0–6.8m at list prices from £13,400. The Sabre Tine is for minimum or zero tillage, equipped with three rows of slim-line tines with tungsten steel tips and rubber shock absorbers. The

tine angle is adjustable and a sliding coulter tube varies the sowing depth. RDS Artemis Lite controls are included and prices start at £17,800 for working widths from 3–6m. The Weaving DD series for direct drilling is offered as a 3m wide mounted drill in seed only or seed plus fertiliser versions priced from £32,000 with a 1,600-litre hopper and RDS Artemis Lite controls. Trailed models from 4–8m wide need about 35hp/m, and list prices from £53,800 include 5,000-litre hopper capacity and RDS Isoscan equipment.

Traditional and conservation With mechanical or pneumatic operation, working widths between 2.5–12.0m and hopper sizes from 650–5,800 litres, Lemken drills offer plenty of choice for both traditional and conservation crop establishment. Solitair pneumatic drills start with the 8 series in 3–4m widths for mounting on various Lemken cultivators, and are equipped with mechanically driven seed metering plus electronic tramline setting and seed rate adjustment. The 9 series up to 6m wide can be rigid or folding and either mounted or semi-mounted. Widths are 8–12m in the trailed 12 series featuring electrically driven metering shafts and a coulter bar in two sections with hydraulically assisted contour following. Lemken Saphir 7 mechanical drills with 650–1,100-litre hopper capacities work with implements including the Zirkon power harrow and can be semi-mounted or carried on the

tractor linkage. The Saphir 8 is similar, but features electronic control for the electrically driven metering shafts.

Variable conditions The Jockey seed drill in the Kockerling machinery range distributed by Hampshire based Samagri is available with a 6m working width that reduces to 3m for transport. It is based on the Kockerling Allrounder cultivator and is suitable for crop establishment in a wide range of conditions including ploughed land or a mulched seedbed. There are 4 rows of tines with 16.6cm spacing and 60cm of clearance beneath the frame allows the Jockey to cope with surface trash. Available in the UK since 2012, it has a 2,800-litre hopper capacity and is equipped with seed metering linked to radar speed measurement to maintain accuracy. Samagri also offers the Boxer drill from the Kockerling range, available in seed only or seed plus fertiliser specifications. The Boxer is trailed and attached to the tractor linkage and is designed to work with a wide range of cultivation or strip tillage equipment.

Cost savings Zero tillage crop establishment using the Sumo DD direct drill can achieve 70 per cent cost saving compared with using traditional cultivations, the manufacturer says, and around a 55 per cent reduction measured against minimum tillage. As well as the cost savings, Sumo UK also claims additional direct drilling benefits including improved soil structure, easier grass weed control, better soil moisture retention, reduced erosion, better drainage and the ability to include cover crops in the rotation. The Sumo DD direct drill is available in mounted and trailed versions, working widths are 3–9m and hopper capacities are from 3,000–3,600 litres. Trailed drills can be supplied with the optional fertiliser kit including a hopper with a 50/50 split for carrying seed plus fertiliser. Sumo also offers a DTS or Deep Tillage Seeder toolbar allowing strip tillage seeding to be used. Row spacing is 333mm and working widths are 3m for the rigid version or 4m with hydraulic folding. continued over...

Drills & Drilling ...from previous page

The three versions of the Mzuri ProTil drill are all designed for one-pass strip tillage, but they can also be used with both traditional plough based cultivations and with minimum tillage systems. The standard Pro-Till drill features in-cab adjustment of the seed rate and hydraulic pressure is applied on each seed depth wheel individually to ensure effective seed-to-soil contact for faster germination, with fertiliser placed just below the seed for easy access. Mounted and trailed 3m wide Pro-Til drills are available plus 4 and 6m trailed versions. Adjustable row width spacing on the Pro-Til Select drills provides extra versatility for establishing crops such as maize, legumes and oilseed rape,

available on trailed drills up to 6m wide. The Xzact drills offer strip-till capability plus the ability to use a special toolbar to provide precision seeding technology.

Multi-purpose drilling There are two Sulky drill series in the machinery range from Sulky-Burel including the pneumatic Xeos models designed for multi-purpose drilling. Available in 3.0, 3.5 and 4.0m working widths and with hopper capacities of 1,000–1,800 litres, they handle a wide range of seeds from beans to rapeseed at rates up to 450kg/ha. Design features include radar speed

measurement for rate control and either Pilot or Ultron electronic control consoles are included depending on the model. A recent addition is the Duo hopper option providing a separate 70 litres of capacity for sowing a second product placed close to the main crop seeds at rates up to 15kg/ha.

Sulky’s Tramline mechanical drill series have 3 and 4m working widths and hopper capacities from 550–1,350 litres depending on the model, and there is a choice of row widths from 20–25 rows on the 3m width, while the 4m drill can have between 28–33 rows. ■

New feature makes light work of heavy soils Heavy land is much more workable with the Horsch PowerDisc coulter which is now available as an option on the 3, 4 and 6m Pronto DC drill. In particular it is effective on the Serto for those working heavy soils, says Horsch. The PowerDisc coulter uses a parallelogram pivot that enables a pressure of up to 150kg per coulter. This proven design ensures that the coulter has a more consistent sowing depth and slot closing in these conditions. Designed for high-speed precise sowing after plough, mulch sowing or direct seed, the Pronto DC offers precise depth control due to its preconfigured packer system and a choice of high-performance seed

coulters, says the manufacturer. Horsch uses the components of the Pronto DC seed drills for hopper and metering in its latest Avatar SD, a direct seed drill that uses discs rather than tines. Available in 6m, 8m and 12m working widths, the Avatar’s high tare weight and up to 220kg coulter pressure makes it ideal for direct seeding. The strong coulter frame eliminates sideways movement, which ensures that the coulter keeps to the set sowing depth on uneven soils. Due to the high coulter pressure, depth control of the coulters is carried out via a larger and stronger version of the Pronto’s well-proven rubber suspension. The

Drills & Drilling Overcoming cover crop challenges T-Sem 300A drilling into a light cover crop.

Establishing cover or green manure crops can be a challenge at an already busy time of the year when soil moisture can be variable. The T-Sem drill was initially developed and sold in France where the practise of cover cropping was adopted much earlier, so this was a requirement of their design right from the start. “Establishing cover crops can be very challenging, firstly the ground can be quite hard, with limited moisture that you don’t want to lose,” said Simtech’s Simon Clarke. “Secondly there will normally be large amounts of surface trash that must pass through the drill unhindered and must not be ‘hair-pinned’ into the seed slot where it will absorb moisture and reduce seed to soil contact.” A tine is best for this job and

the addition of the T-Sem’s inverted T-Slot coulter where the natural capillary action for raising moisture is maintained, means that the seed has the best possible chance of establishing quickly, he added. “Once you have a wellestablished cover crop, the next challenge is to plant the next cash crop into it. It may be that it has been destroyed over winter by frost or sprayed off with Glyphosate, or it may still be fully green if you are drilling in the autumn,” said Simon. “The T-Sem will once again have to deal with the surface material, which sometimes may require the addition of a front mounted crop roller, but the same principals apply for moisture conservation and seed slot cleanliness to get the best establishment.” ■

It’s got profitability written all over it.

Another level of black-grass control British manufacturer Triton says that its seed drill delivers “a new level of all-weather capability for cultural control of black-grass”. The Triton cuts 6in down into the field using non-inversion seeding blades which lift the whole field up giving air, drainage and rooting directly under every plant. The sidepress tines then close the seed slots without the need for a press or roller. The blades have a number of features to prevent seed

falling down the deep slot and to give enhanced rooting. These new features put tine drills back at the forefront of progressive seeding and allow farmers to plant wheat crops in November, into heavy clay, after the blackgrass burden has subsided. The Triton allows a rotation to be planned in the face of resistant black-grass so that drought prone spring crops can be largely avoided, says the manufacturer. The Rock-Hopper version copes with stoney ground and allows all-day drilling into brutal conditions in marginal mixed farming areas. The Triton plants all seed types without adjustment from rape and grass to beans and maize with all the cereals crops in between. Prices start from £15,250+VAT for the seed hopper or from £19,500 with rear hopper fitted. ■

Pneumatic seed drill range extended The Venta 1010 pneumatic drill.

Kuhn Farm Machinery has extended its Venta pneumatic seed drill range with the addition of 1010 series machines. In combination with the company’s HR power range, the drills are suited to working at varying

seeding depths in a wide range of soil conditions. Available in 3.0, 3.5 and 4.0m working widths, this new series of drills has seeding units equipped with Suffolk coulters and adds to a

current Venta range that includes the 1020 series with double disc coulters and 1030 series machines with Kuhn’s Seedflex precision coulter bar. Suffolk coulter seeding units on the 1010 series machines allow

the optimum seeding depth to be maintained by an adjustable depth stop. Each seeding unit operates with 35kg of pressure. As with all Venta drills, machines have a volumetric fluted metering unit with large splines for larger seeds and small splines for smaller seeds. Rates can be set from the tractor cab from 1–430kg/ha. A remote calibration “start button”, located close to the Venta’s metering unit, makes calibrating the machine easy to achieve without the need to go back into the tractor cab to access the drill’s main control panel. Operating in combination, tillage and seeding are carried out independently due to a roller frame design which effectively separates the two functions. This allows for a more compact unit and enables the two units to be uncoupled in less than 10 minutes. The drills are available with 1,500- and 1,800-litre hopper capacities. LED lighting is fitted on the hopper’s metering unit as ■ standard.

Drills & Drilling

Making the right drill choice Whether seeding in ploughed fields or min-till, the Vitu is always the right choice , according to Kockerling importer Samagri. This is because the double disc coulters allow the Vitu to place the seed very precisely even at high working speeds. In addition, a two-row wheel packer ensures the machine can keep working even in marginal conditions.

High performance To fulfil the requirements of a high performance disc drill, the Vitu comes equipped with a double row of 450mm discs, a levelling board, followed by a tyre packer for necessary consolidation. There are options for depth control which can be mechanical or hydraulic.

The drill is available in working widths of 3, 4 and 6m with the combined fertiliser/seed model at 6m.

Kockerling Vitu.

Tines For those looking for a simple heavyduty tine drill, the Jockey is ideal for min-till, plough based systems as well as direct seeding on lighter soils, says the company. Available since 2012, it has four rows of Hercules tines and 16.6cm row spacing. Moreover, it has 60cm underframe clearance for working in large amounts of crop residues, it adds. This drill comes with front crossboard as standard, and offers optional wheel track eradicators. It is is available in 6, 9, and 10m working widths.

With a guaranteed even sowing depth at high speeds, the Ultima outperforms any other tine Seeder on the market today, the company claims.

Controlled hydraulically This is because the sowing depth is controlled hydraulically by a prepress wheel located in front of each

tine, ensuring a consistent seeding depth even on the most uneven seed beds. Available in 3, 4, 6, 8 and 9m working widths, the row spacing is 17.5cm with a 50mm band of seed. Each row is followed by an STS ring which ensures good soil-to-seed contact, adds Samagri. ■

Strip tillage system suits spring cropping British manufacturer Mzuri has put its range of Pro-Til establishment equipment to the test on its trial farm in Worcestershire. In particular the company was testing the range’s suitability for establishing spring crops. Springfield Farm has been the testing ground for the system since 2010. Farmer and inventor Martin Lole believes the Mzuri Pro-Til’s design lends itself well to spring drilling, providing a consistent and cost-effective means of crop establishment: “Spring is a time when there is little room for error. To make the most of the narrow window, you need a system that can establish a

crop quickly and efficiently time and time again,” he advised. “With increased pest pressures, whether that be pigeons or slugs, getting a crop up and away is key to a successful spring crop.” On the farm’s heavy Evesham Lias clay, accurate seed placement and reconsolidation have improved overall germination and encouraged even crop establishment from headland to headland. This reliability of establishment has been the turning point for widening the farm’s rotation and adopting a spring crop – something that Martin is a great advocate of. The Pro-Til’s front discs cut

through the bulkiest of cover crop residue, while the individually hydraulically pressurised coulters place the seed at an accurate depth even in undulating conditions. Dual reconsolidation, courtesy of the press and coulter wheels, ensures good seed-to-soil contact and keeps out pests such as slugs. In dry springs, strip tillage is ideal for retaining moisture in the soil, he

continued. “Heavy cultivations lose valuable moisture from the soil before drilling even starts, which may not be replenished in a dry season.” By target cultivating a narrow strip, moisture is retained in the soil to the benefit of the crop. ■

Drainage & Irrigation

Effective irrigation is key to achieving top yields of water infiltration caused by soil compaction from multiple tractor passes. Slopes must also be taken into account, he suggested, with a slope of just 5 per cent probably reducing infiltration by 50 per cent. Practical means of reducing run off are already available, he noted. These include the Briggs tied ridger which creates small dams between beds. These should be removed before harvest, perhaps with a front mounted tine. A spiked roller such as the Aqueel indents the surface of the bed, making it more receptive to water. There are also simple machines to break up the furrow, such as Bye Engineering’s Wonderwheel.

Back to basics Booms are capable of applying larger volumes more quickly than rainguns, peaking at around 30mm/hr compared to 20mm/hr for rainguns.

Crumbly, friable soils with a loose surface texture are essential if plants are to gain full benefit from irrigation, however timely irrigation with the right volume of water applied in the best way is equally important if yields and quality are to the maximised, according to specialists. During seminars at Briggs Irrigation’s December open days in Corby, Northants, Soil Moisture Sense’s Peter White (right) asked farmers whether irrigating all their crops badly, or doing some very well and some not at all – would make them most profit? Mr White suggested that many growers would increase profitability by irrigating fewer crops, but doing them better. “In 2018, yields of many crops varied significantly, depending on local rainfall and irrigation. Onion yields, for example, fell by 40 per cent on average but the range was huge, with between 7–100t/ha recorded. Effective irrigation had a major part to play in achieving yields at the upper end of the scale,” he pointed out. As yield is proportional to water use, for many growers this meant applying 30mm of water twice a week. But if plants are to use this water effectively, application and infiltration rates must match. This means ensuring water can penetrate the soil and is available to the plant in its active root zone at a rate it can consume. In practice, smooth surfaced ridges

and beds, often seen on good quality silt soils, shed water which may then run off the land along compacted wheelings or down the furrow. Capped soils present a similar problem. Water logging following heavy applications of water, or when rain follows, also results in stress, causing a temporary slowdown in growth and subsequent reduction in yield and quality. In a worst case scenario the ridge can be dry, again leading to drought stress, restricted growth and minimal scab control while the furrow is saturated, potentially leading to leaching of nutrients. As the canopy of plants such as potatoes grows it can disperse the droplets and reduce the problem but by then much of the benefit of irrigation can be lost.

Pre-water One way of avoiding these problems is to ‘pre-water’ with a light application before the main irrigation pass, Mr White suggested. For example, in a very dry potato ridge the infiltration rate may be too slow to take a 30mm boom application in one go. Paired applications may therefore be more effective. Wetting agents could also be useful, he added. In all situations, monitoring soil moisture is essential, he said. Modern probes can help record the impact of irrigation at different depths. With the aid of accurate data it is possible to balance application rates with infiltration speed. Cultivation techniques can also be compared,

along with the impact of changes to irrigation techniques such as trying different nozzles or wetting agents.

Boom time Methods of getting water onto the soil without damaging crops or the soil itself, and without waste, were examined in greater detail by independent mechanisation specialist Bill Basford (right). Booms are capable of applying larger volumes more quickly than rainguns, peaking at around 30mm/hr compared with 20mm/hr for rainguns, he pointed out. When both are operating at optimum pressure a boom also delivers much smaller droplets; 90 per cent of which are likely to be below 2mm in diameter compared with 90 per cent above this size for the raingun. As doubling the droplet size increases its weight eightfold, the impact on the soil and plant can be significant. Water from a raingun also has greater velocity, in part because it leaves the gun at around 75mph, he said. Mr Basford also highlighted the importance of soil structure, pointing to the huge differences in the rate

It is also important to remember basic principles of irrigation, stressed Mr Basford. “Optimum operation of all irrigation equipment depends on maintaining sufficient pressure throughout the system. Rainguns require the highest pressure and if this falls, droplet size increases, which may cause damage or capping, uniformity is lost as there are fewer fine drops to ‘fill in’, while on exposed sites it is harder to combat wind drift. Our trials have shown that areas of the crop will therefore receive insufficient water.” Ensuring there is adequate pressure is dependent on good design for the whole system, he stated. For example, in a ‘typical’ system, increasing the diameter of the pipes from the ring main to the spurs in the field by 25per cent could save around 3.5bar in pressure loss, improving uniformity and optimising droplet size. Energy losses through the turbine should also be taken into account. “In modern hosereels the pressure loss is 0.4–0.8bar, depending on the speed at which the hose is being retracted, whereas for older designs the loss is 1.5–3.0bar. Updating equipment can therefore be cost effective.” The pros and cons of using boom irrigators are well established, he suggested. Advantages include the ability to manage droplet size for different crops and various stages of growth. Crop and soil damage can be minimised and uniformity is excellent. Booms also require less energy than rainguns as they can usually operate at just 2–4bar. Conversely booms may require a little more labour to set up, although continued over...

they are still relatively easy to handle. They also cost more and growers need to be aware of the effect of placing high volumes of water on their land over a short period of time. However, based on a typical system being operated on 20ha over 5 years, including depreciation, repairs and labour, a boom irrigation system will have an approximate cost of £162/ha. Automation may also be worth considering, purely on the basis of

time saved, continued Mr Basford. For example, saving one hour a day, plus mileage can easily equal £18/day overall. If 120 days are spent irrigating, the saving is £2,160. A one-off cost of £1,330 for an interactive telephone control system is therefore quickly recouped. The ability to monitor, control and record using systems such as Brigg’s Raindancer adds further benefits and enables improved management across the farm. ■

Solutions for flood and water management

The Fen Group’s operations on the Old Bedford River.

Application and infiltration rates must match ensuring water can penetrate the soil otherwise water may run off the land along compacted wheelings or down the furrow.

As part of a four year contract Fen Group is maintaining more than 40km of counter drain which runs adjacent to the Old Bedford River. The group has been tasked with carrying out a variety of operations for flood protection and habitat management including dredging, weed cutting and weed raking. The material which is dredged from the counter drain is then left to dry until the following season, when it is levelled and integrated into the adjacent habitat by re-seeding. Due

to the species rich body of water it is important to use bio oils in the machinery and due to Fen Group’s experience working for nature reserves it has several specialist pieces of machinery which run on bio-oil including a 15.5m reach 220 JCB excavator. Maintaining water courses, from ditching to dredging, to embankment protection are just a few of the services offered by the Fen Group to help its customer achieve flood and water management. ■

Drainage & Irrigation Upgrades for drain-jetters Various new upgrades to its range of drain-jetters have been revealed by Mitchell Rowlands. The Professional has been improved with a new 700m capacity drum complete with heavy duty frame to accept the additional weight which has been developed over the past two years and is now offered with ease of attachment to the tractor. Twin hydraulic anti-slip motors are standard on the drive system with four special 200mm wheels to grip the hose, which the company says is a must when you consider the power required to push and pull lengths up to 700m. The second new feature is hydraulic braking on the drum motor to stop over-run when rewinding. The company now offers the guide arm on either left or right hand side of the Drainjetter to special order. It also has a hydraulic rotating guide arm end as an option too. “This makes it very easy to do the drain

outfall either side of the ditch from one tractor position without getting into the ditch,” says the manufacturer. It also has a remote control function. Meanwhile a new model – the MD 80 – has also been announced. This machine derived from the successful MD 50 is water powered with up to 300m of hose. It gives high pressure 80 bar jetting with 140-litres/min water at the head. The drum has hydraulic retrieval as standard; this can be operated with wireless remote control as can the water on and off function.

The Professional now has a 700m capacity drum with heavy duty frame to withstand the additional weight.

Drainage & Irrigation Pump sets for drip irrigation A new range of budget irrigation pump sets has been launched by Greencrop. The range includes economy diesel engines and irrigation pumps that will drive a single hose reel irrigator fitted with either a rain gun or boom. They enable increased use of drip or tape irrigation, where existing pump sets on the market are over capacity for these applications. The two new models, the GCEP051W and GCEP075W, both have bunded tanks and control panels as standard. The GCEP051W unit is powered by a water cooled Perkins 404D22 (TIER 111) 51hp 4 cylinder with a Rovatti F43K80-90/3E

pump, which is ideal for running drip or tape irrigation but still able to run one irrigator. Standard specifications include 66m3/hr – 89m at 2,200 rpm, 66m3/ hr – 69m at 2,000 rpm and 66m3/hr – 48m at 1,750 rpm. Other features include flow switch, manual priming pump, delivery butterfly valve, a roof to protect the engine from rain and a special bunded chassis with internal capacity of 800 litres. There is also a lockable fuel cap. Optional extras for both pump sets include suction and delivery fittings, electric primer, acoustic lockable engine cabinet and GSM control. ■

Greencrop has launched two new models of irrigation pumps.

Political and climatic factors fuel drainage demand With uncertainty surrounding the future of the Basic Payment Scheme along with ongoing price volatility in the global market place, many farmers have been examining their cost base carefully. One area which features high on the priority list for many is addressing a ‘back to basics’ approach to soil management. Soil health, black grass control and a general need to farm soils in the best way possible is an absolute necessity in 2019, says

QUIVOGNE UK

drainage contractor William Morfoot. The installation of new land drains as a tool to improve soils and enhance yield prospects is an obvious starting place for many growers. The current political uncertainty has led to many growers looking to install new drainage schemes to provide the additional yield they strive for, says Morfoot. “The combined effects of Brexit, rainfall extremities, declining effectiveness of existing outdated

drainage systems coupled with an obvious requirement to promote soil health in order to maximise yields means that drainage investment has been an easy choice to make for many of our clients,” says the company’s James Frary. “As a result, investment in drainage has been considerable in recent years.” With yield monitoring now being used as a tool to record yield information each year, the return on investment in new drainage schemes is easier

than ever to gauge.” Many customers are so impressed by the yield increases and improvement in soil structure brought about by installing drains that they decide to invest further, he adds. William Morfoot can provide a complete design and installation service and operates across the UK. It runs the latest in GPS guided trenching machinery and associated ancillary equipment. ■

Drainage & Irrigation Mole draining helps maximise crop yields The extremely dry conditions of 2018 did not provide an ideal moling year so, if conditions are right in 2019, it will be a very important ‘catch up’ year, according to Hankins Engineering. Mole draining is a fine art and, when done properly, it can bring long lasting benefits to soil health by allowing crop roots to grow more deeply to search for nutrients. Well-drained soils can help maximise crop growth and yields and make the operation easier and cheaper, says the company. This is because not only is less

time needed to do a job when soil conditions are good, but also fuel costs can be lower. Moreover, it points out, a badly drained field will be more susceptible to disease and weed problems, resulting in a below-average crop that has cost more to grow. To achieve well drained land you need the correct tool for the job and the right conditions, emphasises Hankins Engineering. Since the design of the first tractor mounted Maidwell Moler over 35 years ago, Ron Hankins of Hankins Engineering has gone on to develop a wide range of machines from single-leg mounted and trailed molers, to twin- and 3-leg machines. Although there was very little moling done during 2018 Hankins Engineering was very busy draining and moling in water pipes with its single-leg Maidwell Moler. Ron Hankins is always available to give advice and discuss requirements, adds Hankins Engineering. ■ Moling in water pipe for a customer with a single leg Maidwell Moler.

The Shelton CT150 agricultural chain trencher.

Drainage investment yields gains When last year’s extreme weather conditions highlighted drainage issues on farmer David Blacker’s Yorkshire farm he decided to invest in machinery to drain the areas of his heavy, clay-based land. He invested in a Shelton CT150 chain trencher, a tractor mounted trencher, with the option of GPS or laser grading technology, plus ancillary machinery to carry out the work. David said: “I did my research and chose the CT150 as I liked the fact it would dig a deep trench, up to 1.5m and used 3-point linkage. “When working it sits on a large plate that gives better continuity

across the field. Initially, we drained about 2 hectares of a 40 hectare field. We trenched directly into areas of drilled crop which had failed and installed mains and laterals. We did the work during the dry spell, so the results weren’t immediate, but after the first rain, I couldn’t believe the amount of water which ran out of the exit drain, even during such a dry period. I have done 14 hectares for myself in the first year with some impressive results.” Neighbouring farmers were keen to get similar results so David started contracting work with it and is now earning an income from the machine. ■

Balance of soil, water and air crucial to crop yield and quality When irrigating, ensure that crops have the correct amount of available water at each stage of growth, advises irrigation specialist Anthony Hopkins of Wroot Water. A typical soil will consist of 50 per cent sand, silt and clay, 25 per cent air and 25 per cent water, and when a crop is growing and transpiring, it will draw water from the soil water reserve, which changes the balance of the soil, air and water, he explains. If there is too much water, the plant has insufficient access to air, and when the balance swings the other way and is too dry, it reaches the

point where the plant will wilt (see diagram). This is where a good irrigation system will replenish the balance to keep the crop growing without saturating the soil. “It is important not to exceed the infiltration rate of the soil when irrigating. This can vary according to soil type, and, additionally, if there is slope infiltration will be reduced,” says Mr Hopkins. “You must also ensure the water travels through the profile sufficiently to meet the crop needs. “When the balance of soil, air

and water are at their optimum proportions, despite different soils having different available water capacities, you will achieve healthy soil and healthy crops, in addition to reducing soil erosion and chemical and fertiliser leaching.” Various services and irrigation systems to suit all crops are available from Wroot Water, and the company uses the latest soil moisture monitoring equipment together with the new ‘Wroot Water Canopee Total control’ that enhances the Wroot Water irrigation system. ■

Irrigation kit added to portfolio Rob Jackson (right) welcomes Burdens' Andy Wilson to the Bauer irrigation dealer network in front of a Bauer Rainstar reel.

Farm and professional horticultural equipment supplier Burdens Group has added Bauer irrigation products to its portfolio of machinery for specialist growers. Burdens is now handling the Bauer irrigator range of hose reels, centre pivots, rain guns and sprinkler booms throughout Lincolnshire, east Nottinghamshire and north Cambridgeshire. Bauer irrigators complement a comprehensive range of specialist equipment for salad, vegetable and other commercial horticulture crops supplied by Burdens Group.

“We are now in a position to supply some of the best irrigation equipment around; it’s heavy-duty, has a very efficient water turbine drive system, and as little or as much electronics technology as you want,” said Burdens’ specialist crop sales manager, Andy Wilson. “Pretty much everything, including steel pipe and the famous Bauer coupling, and the polyethylene tubing that goes on the reel, is manufactured by Bauer in its Austrian factory for optimum quality control.” The Bauer Rainstar irrigation reel

programmes that define retraction speed, pre-irrigation, post-irrigation and speed zones can be stored, and operating data is collected for transfer to farm records. Bauer’s SmartRain cloud-based management system comes with a mobile device app with remote monitoring, alerts and control functions enabling managers and field staff to oversee the deployment of several irrigation reels. A selection of rainguns and booms with different nozzle sizes, types and installations caters for all crops, bed and field layouts, including Bauer’s Centerstar 9000 pivot irrigator with all options available to Burdens Group customers. ■

line-up extends from the compact T Series, which starts with the T32 model handling Bauer PE pipe in 65-85mm diameters from 220-350m in length, through the full-size E Series, which tops out with the E55 XL carrying 125-140mm diameter pipe in 560-740m lengths. High pulling force – up to 40 per cent greater than with some irrigation reels – is generated by an efficient radial water turbine, working in conjunction with a gearbox, a heavy-duty drive chain and large diameter laser cut reel drive sprocket. The Bauer turbine’s design and precision assembly ensures it operates with very little water pressure loss, while the unique Vario variable output nozzle exploits what pressure is available. The variable water nozzle maintains a constant hose retraction speed from the beginning to the end of the strip working in combination with an Ecostar 4300 or Ecostar 6000 controller.

Miles Drainage manufactures the Single Leg Mole Plough as well as supplying spares and wearing parts. ■

Drain maintenance is key The link between blackgrass and poor drainage is as clear as black and white in some fields, with the well drained areas free of the weed, while infested areas clearly show the need for, or lack of, drainage. According to Miles Drainage the problem could simply be a lack of maintenance. “With less full-time farm staff and more

acres to farm, drain maintenance can unfortunately become easily overlooked.” For a drainage scheme to operate to its full potential, the outfalls need to be in good condition and have a suitable freeboard – the difference between the drain invert and the ditch bed, says the company.

Inside information is key for production efficiency A recently completed survey into how pigs are housed in England, will offer a valuable insight into the systems used to rear and finish slaughter progeny. Devised by AHDB Pork, it is the pig industry’s largest ever study on accommodation and should provide clues on what’s influencing production efficiency and environmental impacts. Jane Jordan writes. The survey, conducted by BMG Research during autumn 2018 until the end of January 2019, has analysed responses from 248 pig production businesses. The data collected will provide quantitative and qualitative information on the housing facilities currently being used on pig production sites nationwide. It’s too early to draw conclusions at this stage, but the data collected is a good representation of what’s happening on English pig farms, says independent environment and buildings specialist, Nigel Penlington, formerly with AHDB. “A number of key themes are emerging, nationally and regionally, and once analysed the findings will provide good intelligence for AHDB and others to develop, going forward.” A variety of accommodation and production systems are used to rear pigs in the UK, with a significant proportion aimed at satisfying retail/ consumer ideals, not necessarily pigs’ needs. Straw-based, naturallyventilated buildings/yards are popular and perceived to offer welfare benefits. However, some on-farm studies, carried out on a selection of RSPCA Freedom Food approved finishing houses during Summer 2018, have raised questions about these systems. The investigations, using

thermal imagery, showed how most semi-intensive systems are less than adequate at maintaining a favourable, stable environment during very hot or very cold conditions. The footage, taken when temperatures ranged from 26–30ºC, also revealed how certain design specifications do affect the thermo-dynamics of a building, often compromising the pigs’ immediate living space.

Investigations Suffolk-based Rattlerow Farms’ joint MD, Adrian Lawson, set up the investigations to find out what was happening inside the strawbased accommodation used on the company’s commercial production sites. The images recorded show some marked differences between well insulated and poorly insulated buildings during very hot conditions. “The value of insulation in pig accommodation is so underrated in the UK and that needs to change. Insulation’s not about heat retention, the focus needs to be on temperature management. I’m confident any investment made to improve the insulating capabilities of any building, whether it’s slatted, straw-based or an outdoor hut, will pay off because it will benefit production efficiency,” he says. Adrian’s thermal imagery demonstrated how the level of insulation provided in walls, ceiling and floors influenced temperature in certain zones and how the materials used to fabricate pen divisions and gates affected air movement within a building. It showed how roof insulation – if there was any – was generally inadequate and offered little protection from the sun’s intense, relentless heat. In most cases the roof behaved like a radiator, while the smooth, light-reflecting, easyclean surfaces often used to finish walls and partitions, exacerbated the Thermal images pick up the hot spots inside a typical straw-based finishing house. The ambient internal temperature is 24ºC, but note the warmer roofline and hot zones at pig level. Insulation would improve this environment.

problem by reflecting heat back into the building – an advantage when it’s cold, but not ideal at 26ºC +. The footage also picked up considerable temperature variances inside wide-span, curtain-sided accommodation. On warm days, when all windows/curtain sides were fully opened and ventilation was at maximum, hot spots were clearly evident at pig level, along pen walls and divisions – zones that heat temperature probes can’t reach. Observations also noted how pigs housed in pens with barred gates/ divisions seemed more comfortable than those in buildings where pen divides were solid boards/wall and that these pigs were also more inclined to ‘wallow’ in the dung passage.

Good insulation Staffordshire-based ARM Buildings’ environmental specialist, Tim Miller (right), says a good level of insulation provides an effective barrier against solar generated heat and although it won’t prevent buildings getting hot, in extreme temperatures it will slow down the rate at which internal temperatures rise or fall. “Having good insulation’s so important for all pig accommodation. It buffers temperature changes and will help maintain a more stabilised environment, which is what pigs tend to prefer. Unfortunately, the thermal qualities of most straw-based, naturally-ventilated accommodation is generally not

considered in the same way as environmentally controlled systems, so most buildings are uninsulated shells, offering very little control,” he explains. Even modern, ‘freedom food’ type systems, with automatically controlled curtain-sides have limited environmental control, and Mr Miller says any change in ambient temperature outside, is usually mirrored inside the building. To improve environmental management in hot conditions, ARM has installed positive pressure ducts and extractor fans in the roof space of a number of straw-based systems. This pushes air into buildings and speeds up airflow and outcomes have proved reasonably successful. Further investment in an insulated roof might reduce the ‘solar heating effect’ and offer additional improvements, so it’s worth thinking about, suggests Mr Miller. “When the heat’s unbearable, like it was in Summer 2018, it’s always continued over...

going to be difficult to stop pigs lying in the muck passage. We can increase ventilation and blow cooler air into a building, but, ultimately, the pigs will go where they feel most comfortable. Outdoors that’s a wallow and indoors they head for the next best thing; the cool, wet dunging area,” he adds. Temperature control in prolonged cold conditions is also difficult to manage. A trial, carried out by ARM on a finishing site in Yorkshire during winter 2017/18, showed how internal temperatures of the straw yards tracked outside levels. The

investigation, in conjunction with the farm’s veterinary practice, monitored average daily temperatures and found that during one very cold week the indoor highs never reached more than 10ºC during daylight hours. “Although the pigs had bedding and appeared comfortable, you have to consider how this prolonged cold environment affected their behaviour, performance and feed costs. Adding more bedding does help to keep pigs warm, but straw’s becoming more expensive, too, so you have to question if this is cost effective or sustainable, long term,” he says. These observations suggest that most naturally ventilated/straw based rearing systems would benefit from better insulation, even at basic levels. It would improve the thermal dynamics of these buildings and has potential to raise pig performance and efficiency.

Reduce inefficiencies Accommodation attitudes are changing in the pig sector. The industry’s commitment to further reduce antibiotic use is encouraging

farmers to revaluate their production systems and engineer health control strategies founded on tough hygiene protocols and smarter environmental management. In 2014 the PIVIT project – Pig Improvement Via Information Technology – demonstrated how remote, continuous, real-time monitoring and analysis of a production system could help pig businesses identify anomalies and reduce inefficiency. Statistics were collected on temperature, ventilation rates, feed intake and water consumption and cross-referenced against pig performance. The farms involved gained considerable insight into how their production systems were working and the information gathered soon indicated how most of the buildings used to rear slaughter pigs were not providing what the animals needed for the entire production process. The perceived production environment was not necessarily the reality, and most set-ups were not being managed correctly all of the time, so inefficiencies existed. Some farms also discovered how episodes of poor health could be matched to these periods of

‘environmental inadequacy’. By tracking real-time records, each premises learned to note particular trends and identify signals that were likely to pre-empt a potential disease outbreak – it proved a very useful tool. Observing pig behaviour might indicate that pigs are comfortable (or not), but does it actually show if they are performing as well as they could be, or if growth and FCR (feed conversion ratio) are being compromised by more subtle environmental factors? Buildings and how they are managed have a considerable impact on herd health, welfare and productivity. The UK pig sector must evaluate the systems it uses and determine which ones are functional, efficient and cost effective. It must reconsider PIVIT’s concept and conclusions as this project demonstrated how simple environmental intelligence can isolate inefficiency, improve production management and help pig businesses harness more of the performance potential available in their slaughter pigs. The findings are relevant today, and perhaps more so given today’s increasingly competitive market. ■

Working to specific requirements, the insulated buildings arrive flat-packed in kit form for selfassembly, or with optional construction assistance.

Successful apprentice shortlisted for award

Bespoke DIY modular buildings created Create A Cabin says that it can help simplify agricultural diversification by placing them inside an existing farm building without the need for planning permission (only ‘change of use’ is required). The buildings can also be placed outside, adds the Kent based company. Ranging in size from 20–150m2, the self-supported buildings are technically sophisticated and flexible. Working to specific requirements, the insulated buildings arrive flatpacked in kit form for self-assembly, or with optional construction assistance. Made from polyurethane and galvanised steel, the horizontal panels are stacked on top of each other with an overhang to ensure they are washable and food grade compliant. A PVC corner piece helps

ensure clean, vermin free buildings, making them ideal for artisan food preparation. Power, plumbing and flooring are connected after the build with local contractors. Experience shows that no two projects are the same due to size, budget or location, continues Create A Cabin. The buildings are made to measure and fit any space. Internal partitions can be provided to create offices, cold rooms, storage, showers, WCs, temporary accommodation and training rooms. Delivered within four weeks of order, the buildings are priced favourably compared with other ready-made structures at £250–£400m2. They are a fast, economical way for forward thinking farmers to change direction and grow profit, adds the firm, which can be contacted on 01227 389 895.

An apprentice draughtsman for an agricultural business has been shortlisted for Apprentice of the Year in The Sentiinels Business Awards this month. Alex Critchley secured his apprenticeship with Graham Heath Construction in 2017. He was the company’s first apprentice and was based at its Cheshire office. During his apprenticeship he has brought in more than £600,000 to the company it says. “In 2018 alone, we manufactured and supplied 432 buildings which is a fantastic increase from 2017’s number of 377. The year of 2018 was undoubtedly our most successful and busiest year since opening our doors, which is why the news of this shortlist has got our team off to a strong start for 2019.” The company nominated Alex for the award in November 2018,

putting him forward as Apprentice of the Year 2019 to show their appreciation of his hard work. “As Alex reaches the end of his Apprenticeship, we hope the news of being shortlisted will prove to Alex his talent and ability to make a difference to our continuous growth,” says the firm. Graham Heath construction manufactures steel-framed buildings for the agricultural, industrial and equestrian industries. ■

tools and tractors remaining firm favourites. This year, Land Rover Defenders have been added to thieves’ shopping lists following their production being terminated in 2016.

Livestock theft

Across the UK, farmers are turning their homes and business into fortresses in order to try and protect themselves against thieves, according to livestock marketing co-operative Anglia Quality Meat (AQM). Rural crime has historically been a hot topic, it says. Farms are often seen as soft targets with low levels of security, and items such as expensive vehicles, machinery, scrap metal and high quality tools vulnerable to theft from both criminal gangs and opportunists. Combine that with

a rural police force rarely able to provide a rapid response due to many factors such as geography, and it is no wonder that many farming and rural communities feel isolated. The overall cost of UK rural crime according to recent statistics is around £40 million per year. Within these statistics, the items that are stolen follow trends with quad bikes, power

Most weeks there are press reports of large numbers of lambs and sheep being stolen for illegal slaughter. Besides theft, there are also concerns from livestock farmers for their own safety and that of their staff from ‘animal activists’ and campaigners. It can be very intimidating when groups of people trespass on to a farmer’s property with their faces covered, intent on creating a disturbance so as to spread their own views, explains AQM livestock communication and development manager, James Doel (left). All of these criminal acts have to be paid for, and it usually results in farmers having to make

claims on their insurance policies to cover their losses. This in turn can lead to higher premiums, increased excesses or refusal to provide cover for re-occurring losses, he adds. Farmers can take precautions to protect assets which can also lead to reductions in insurance premiums. Each farming business is unique and by working with an agricultural security specialist, it is possible to put measures in place which will deter the thieves and intruders. AQM’s ActiveWatch can help protect all aspects of a farm, including: • GPS Tracking devices for machinery & equipment • Gate/door sensors • PIR sensors • Laser beam sensors (laser gates) with 100m range • Fuel tanks • Pressure pads (under vehicles, feed bags etc) • Temperature/humidity sensors • Flame/smoke detection • CCTV cameras • All of AQM’s products are designed to be simple to install and are very cost effective. ■

The importance of air extraction in grain stores Grain store fitted with extraction fans.

Without external ventilation crop cooling systems are inefficient because warm air extracted from grain is circulated within the building rather than being expelled. The result is slower crop cooling that can lead to insect infestation and poor quality grain, says grain store specialist Martin Lishman. One solution is to leave the building doors open but this has disadvantages including reduced security, non-compliance with quality assurance procedures, loss of protection from the elements and a still inadequate airflow into and out of the building. The StoreVent building ventilation system from Martin Lishman improves crop store ventilation by extracting the warm, moist air removed from grain by Pile-Dry Pedestals, FloorVent systems, Trouble-Dry spears and other drying and cooling devices. It also replenishes the building with fresh, cool air from outside. Ultimately, StoreVent will maximise the efficiency of crop cooling and The StoreVent extraction fan and louvre.

drying systems it says. Due to the range of extraction fans available, the system can be matched to the various quantities and sizes of crop ventilation fans used in the store. This ensures sufficient air exchange to maximise the cooling and drying effect of the ambient air. Available in a range of packages, the StoreVent options include wall mounted extraction fans, back-draught shutters, fixed or motorised louvres and automatic controls that can be linked to crop ventilation fans. StoreVent is a comprehensive and cost-effective system that will save energy and help to produce dry, cool and high quality grain. Martin Lishman can also offer complete crop storage systems and grain quality and crop storage advice based on practical experience in thousands of stores throughout the UK and worldwide. The company’s storage specialists can assist farmers and store managers with the design of a storage system to suit their budgets. ■

Farmers seeking diversification advice A large number of farmers attended the Energy and Rural Business Show, Telford, Shropshire in early February to explore diversification options to keep their businesses viable, and ‘future-proof’ against rising uncertainty. The new event comes from the creators of ‘Energy Now Expo’ and for the first time showcased the latest renewable energy, farm diversification and low emission vehicle opportunities under one roof. “We’re responding to a time of great ambiguity and transition in agriculture and have introduced three elements of the show which are defining farms of the future. The Energy Now Expo, celebrating 10 years of success this year, was joined by Rural Business Expo and Low Emission Vehicles Expo,” says event Top: Diversification options, including alternative use for farm buildings, was a focus for visitors to the Energy and Rural Business Show.

director, David Jacobmeyer. According to the NFU Mutual ‘Diversification report’ issued in November 2018, the most popular diversification opportunities are renewable energy, which makes up 29 per cent of activity, property letting at 15 per cent, closely followed by holiday lets and glamping-type activity, which makes up 12 per cent. Other types of popular enterprises include livery stables, outdoor leisure activities and farm shops, all of which were heavily featured at the show, with expert speakers informing in ‘How-to’ diversification workshops, presenting in the multi-streamed conference and exhibiting. Testament to the success of the event and taking centre stage at the show were the new BBC Top Gear team, Paddy McGuinness, Freddie Flintoff and Chris Harris, who stopped off at the Telford show to film part of their next series. The next Energy and Rural Business Show is scheduled for February 2020. ■

New brand identity for 200 year old firm The Padagas 2.40m Push-Broom from Spaldings is mounted on pallet forks and has fold down stands to protect the 11 rows of bristles when the implement is not being used.

Simple but effective sweeping solutions Two new products have been added to a line of farm cleaning solutions from Spaldings. The Padagas Push-Broom is a new design with simple parking stands that eliminate the permanent bristle distortion that can result from leaving the implement standing on them when not in use. The pivoting stands are simply lowered over the ends of the brush from an upright position and secured with a spring-loaded pin before lowering the Push-Broom to the ground, releasing two securing bolts and withdrawing the pallet tines. At 2.4m wide, it is ideal for sweeping up in grain and other bulk stores without raising much dust, and is especially suited to wooden drying floors where the 11 rows of bristles do no harm. On wet concrete and similar hard surfaces, the dense mass of bristles works like a squeegee to remove moisture, standing water or slurry with equal efficiency. Integral fork slots on the upper surface of the sweeper’s chassis, with hand tightened securing bolts to hold it in place, make it easy to mount and dismount the implement on a tractor-mounted or wheeled loader, telescopic handler or industrial forklift. Meanwhile the new Padagas powered brush conversion for a farm’s existing grain or general purpose loader bucket provides an alternative cleaning solution from Spaldings where material needs to be collected for disposal. This 2.3m wide design incorporates a single hydraulic motor for the 600mm diameter brush and simple mountings to fit the bucket, including side supports that are adjustable to find the best spacing between the brush and leading edge

Maize-under-film trials show significant economic returns Establishing maize under degradable film has the potential to deliver an earlier harvest significantly higher yields and, in the case of most marginal maize growing areas, make the crop more economically viable and consistent. These are the conclusions of a series of trials investigating the performance of a range of varieties grown using the latest Samco technologies conducted by ProCam and its seed business, Field Options. “We’ve seen that the Samco system of drilling maize under degradable film offers better and more consistent results for all maize growers, and can make the crop an option for those who struggle to grow a viable crop of maize in the open,” said ProCam’s Barry Mills, “but this is only possible by growing the right varieties, applying the right agronomy and adhering to the overall system. “It’s a mistake to assume that any maize variety will work when grown under film. For the system to deliver best returns, it is vital to select a variety that can cope with the increased temperature under the film, as well as one with high enough yield potential to benefit from the extra heat units provided.”

Trials Collaborative research by the company has been on-going for 15 years, and this work has been stepped up over the past two years with trials around the country comparing 20 different varieties grown under film and with some of the same hybrids also grown in the open, including key competitor hybrids. The primary aim was to identify which method of production gives the best financial return to farmers. Summarising the results from marginal growing areas, Mr Mills

reports a freshweight yield advantage of over 5t/ha, crops consistently achieving over 30 per cent dry matter, crops typically three weeks earlier to harvest, and producing significantly higher starch and energy levels. “Advances in technology have, in recent years, resulted in a better balance between the degradability and strength of film, as well as improvements of the engineering in the drill,” adds Mr Mills. “This has led to more consistent results,

which comfortably out-weigh the additional investment. Additional yield of higher nutritional value is relatively easy to quantify. Other benefits such as an earlier entry for following crops are less easy to put figures on but are no less valuable. “Our aim across ProCam and Field Options business is to fine-tune the system for UK growers, in both favourable and less favourable areas, so that we can help them achieve the best possible outcomes. “There’s no doubt in my mind

that maize under film has the potential to deliver excellent returns on investment for all maize growers. For some, that will be to achieve significantly higher yields of dry matter and energy with the same harvest timing as standard varieties grown in the open. For others, it will mean achieving two to three weeks earlier harvest without sacrificing yield, which can allow for an earlier entry into a following crop and reduce risk of soil damage and erosion.” ■

2-in-1 mixer and straw bedder becoming popular

The 2-in-1 Lucas G Spirmix Jet vertical auger diet feeder and straw bedder.

Lucas G is renowned for the design and manufacture of highperformance bedding and feeding machinery to suit the requirements of modern livestock farmers, says the company. The Spirmix Jet range combines a single or twin vertical auger mixer with a straw blower turbine mounted at the front, providing the benefits of both systems in one

versatile machine. It is available in a number of configurations ranging from 12–26m3 capacity and with a 270-degree swivelling chute for accurate straw bedding which can also be used to feed a mixed ration into a trough or areas on a farm otherwise inaccessible by a traditional diet feeder. The Jet has an additional rotor between the mixing augers and the straw blower

to ensure even flow of material and quick and efficient emptying. Feed can also be distributed on the flow via a trap door. The 2-in-1 mixer and straw bedder is becoming more popular on UK farms in recent years and it is easy to see why, continues the company. Farmers get the benefit of a diet feeder and straw bedder all in one machine. It makes sense

from a financial aspect as well; a new 16m3 Spirmix Jet costs less than an equivalent sized mixer and a 3m3 trailed straw bedder. Another advantage is that the Jet can remain on one tractor and perform the feeding and bedding duties without having to swap tractor or machine, which can be an additional problem when under pressure, concludes Lucas G. ■

A Day in the life of ... The Bowen Family

”Forage wagons can be used to produce grass silage more efficiently and in turn increase the profit from milk. Using the wagons the harvesting costs are cut right down and you don’t need as many staff as other systems. Ground compaction is reduced as its only one machine in the field, instead of two, three, four or five”

This adjustment can be achieved either mechanically using turnbuckles or alternatively hydraulic adjustment can be specified allowing in-cab operation. Its Top Tech Plus rotors feature 11 tine arms

per rotor and are fully serviceable thanks to their modular design. The large diameter cam track (42cm diameter) offers smooth and quiet operation, only needing greasing every 50 hours. Supporting each rotor as standard is a three-wheel rotor chassis to which the optional Multitast leading jockey wheel system can be added. This unique leading jockey wheel system works in conjunction with the +/- 8 degrees of oscillation to allow ground contours to be followed accurately and ensuring that forage contamination is minimised. The Top 762C Classic range starts from £20,295. ■

Multi-use silage or biogas – wide drilling window…

Multi-purpose harrow The Grass 300 from Bullock Tillage has been designed as a multipurpose harrow to deal with the challenges of improving grassland condition and production. At the front there is a full width hydraulically adjustable levelling board mounted on flexible tine units which is capable of levelling mole hills and organic manures. Next comes three rows of adjustable tines. The first two rows are heavy duty cranked 12mm tines and are ideal for pulling out weeds and matting, allowing aeration of the soil to improve grass growth. The third row are straight 8mm tines designed to level the surface and aid the mixing of seed when over-seeding or reseeding. At the rear there is a full width hydraulically adjustable prismatic packer which ensures a level surface with good seed to soil contact when over-seeding. The Grass 300 can handle all the operations required in one single pass and has even greater flexibility

when used in combination with an SP 200 air seeder. The SP 200 air seeder is a 12-volt 200l applicator for distributing most small seeds. The SP 200 comes with two control boxes, one in cab and one on the applicator, plus three rotors, low level sensor, eight outlets, 25m of pipe, eight spreader plates, 6m of brackets to fit the spreader plates in 1m lengths and either GPS or land wheel drive. The Grass 300 starts at £7,200 and the SP 200 at £3,300 plus delivery and VAT. ■

The performance challenge Profitability in livestock production is influenced by many factors. Many are outside a farm’s control – prevailing weather conditions, the political situation, output prices and legislative influences, says Abbey Machinery. However, the company points out that many influences are within a farmer’s control – livestock performance (yield, live weight/ carcass gain), labour efficiency, output quality for example. From a feeding perspective stock tend to utilise 15–20 per cent of what they eat. The remainder comes out as waste, says the company. Feed efficiency is how well the cow or beef animal converts what they eat into milk or live weight gain. Factors that influence this include the constituents of the diet, the presentation of the diet, animal health and husbandry factors. Abbey Machinery’s diet feeders, with their unique design (low auger profile and engineered shape) allow for optimum mixing, without over processing and all at minimal

power demands. This has the effect of enhancing performance while also raising labour efficiency. In addition, the wide feed-out door on its range of 19 different diet feeders reduces feed out time, points out the business. As the animal passes out 80–85 per cent of what it eats, this needs to be stored and spread

in an efficient and labour saving manner. Abbey Machinery has a 6-step slurry management system to enhance slurry value. An animal typically produces 1.5t of slurry per month and this can save up to £10 of purchased fertiliser if applied correctly. Abbey Machinery’s application technologies including band

spreader, vertical trailing shoe and disc injector help improve the fertiliser efficiency of slurry; reduce its environmental impact and reduce odour while spreading. As the time is now coming to apply slurry to silage ground, it is paramount it is applied based on field requirements and silage yield potential, concludes the company. ■

Dairy, Forage & Silage Navigating maize varieties

Amaroc being harvested.

Growers of maize for biogas are faced with a wide choice of varieties for planting this season. KWS has launched a breeding programme for biogas-specific maize varieties for Northern Europe. The company’s John Burgess says that choosing an energy maize specific hybrid is the best way to ensure that production targets are met. Among the top priorities for most farms is to maximise methane production per hectare and to achieve yield and dry matter targets. Biogas growers will also be looking to produce a dry matter range of 27-31per cent, to promote optimum fermentation, as well as to maintain a retention figure of 50-100 days. “KWS energy varieties have been selected for their ability to produce very high yields at a low production cost per tonne,” says John. “They have a range of maturity dates between FAO 220-260, in order to deliver a consistent feed supply throughout the harvest season. “Other selection criteria for our energy-specific varieties are cold

tolerance, vigour and standing ability. Varieties which meet our exacting breeding standards offer earliness of maturity, without the yield penalties which have historically been associated with varieties in this class. They also have excellent standing ability. “A minority of farms may not be located in an area suitable for energy specific varieties and in these situations, we can advise on selecting a forage variety that will make a suitable substitute,” he adds. Among the latest new varieties which KWS recommends for this season are Amaverde and Amaroc. Amaverde makes a good choice for growers who are looking to pull harvest forward, although it is also ideal for later-planting situations. With an FAO of 220, Amaverde is a high volume, semi-stay-green-type, with a yield potential of 55-60t/ha. Meanwhile, Amaroc matches the yield potential of Amaverde on favourable sites, also offering rapid early vigour and the opportunity to spread harvest and drilling windows on lighter land. ■

Grass-fed cheddar launched at Dairy-Tech West Country cheese-maker Lye Cross Farm, based at Redhill near Bristol, launched its first 100 per cent grass-fed cheddar cheese at DairyTech 2019 in early February. This has been created from milk produced by dairy cows that have never eaten any grains or cereals throughout their entire lifetime. Genuine 100 per cent grass-fed dairy products have a healthier fat content, a more balanced omega-3 to omega-6 fatty acid profile, and additional vitamins and minerals, than milk from cows fed grains. This makes it a healthier cheese for people to eat, says the Pasture-Fed Livestock Association.

Range expanded with bale handling kit

YOUR CHOICE IN EVERY FIELD

The Albutt F470 bale grab has a side squeeze operation for square and round bales.

Gloucestershire manufacturer Albutt has updated its range. The Albutt F470 Bale Grab is a heavy duty bale handler aimed at high intensity users. The side squeeze operation provides a simple tool for moving both square and round silage bales. Lateral movement of the clamp can be adjusted to allow for the largest possible range while keeping the frame width at a minimum. A heavy duty spill frame means a second square bale can be stacked. Bolt-on brackets mean that the bale handler can simply have the brackets swapped if the machine type is changed. If the machine has two hydraulic services to the attachment, both width adjustment and the clamp movement operations can be handled from the cab. If the machine only has one hydraulic service, the two three-way valves on the F470 can be manually operated to switch between width adjustment or clamp movement services. The B812PPHX is a wider version of Albutt’s high capacity buckrake with Hardox tines. The new model is 12 feet wide and is designed to be used with high horse power tractors and wheeled loaders. The design features The B812PPHX high capacity buckrake with Hardox tines.

14 Hardox high tensile steel tines, with a length of 1.65m. New features for all 2016 Albutt buckrakes with Hardox tines include 5 top link hole positions and an increased hydraulic ram diameter which is now 75mm providing greater push off force. The hydraulic ram pivot pins have also been increased in diameter to 35mm and the tine holder top surface has been angled to prevent silage build up. A sub-frame for mounting on wheeled loader quick hitches is now available as an option. Meanwhile the company’s range of shear buckets is designed to save time for the livestock farmer. This attachment allows the cutting of silage and handing of feed materials, eliminating the need to swap between bucket and shear grab. The shear bucket is designed to be used with telescopic handlers with a lift capacity from 3t. Larger and smaller capacity models will follow later in 2019. ■

TURBOFARMER RANGE The widest range of agricultural telehandlers on the market The ideal choice with three available Model Sizes (compact, medium and heavy) and three power levels (115, 136 and 170 HP), combined with 2-speed hydrostatic transmissions and CVTronic solutions.

Flexible and efficient feed storage system Well proven in the UK for over 30 years, the AgBag System has numerous storage applications including grass, maize, wholecrop and grain (moist and dry). It can be used for all other moist and alternative feeds says manufacturer AB Systems. The AgBags are available in sizes up to 200m in length and up to 4.5m in diameter. The most common size for moist grain is 1.5m diameter bags. The bags are made of strong plastic and are totally airtight says the company whose team of trained contractors offers a fast, efficient service at a fixed price. The robust AgBag machines

The AgBag System can be used to store all moist and alternative feeds.

can fill the storage bags at up to 10t/minute. As the forage is bagged, it is conditioned to ensure minimum waste during a complete fermentation in cool, air-tight conditions. Dry matter losses are

only 2% compared with 20% in many clamps. The AgBag System has all the preservation benefits associated with extremely high-quality tower silage, but with less complications says AB.

As the bags are laid down rather than upright, access is easier and it is possible to direct feed to stock easily. First-cut silage can be selectively bagged rather than buried with poorer second and third cuts, it says. ■

Year round grassland management The grassland management system from Güttler Greenmaster has been in production for more than 14 years. With features such as the ‘Quattro’ ripper board system, the Greenmaster is a completely modular solution which allows the possibility of adding an additional front Harroflex unit and/or Wox AerMaster Aerator to the 3m model, and is available from 1.8m for the compact tractor market up to 12m for the large scale farmer. The Greenmaster allows the livestock and grass production farmer year round management for swards of all qualities and grades, with no discrimination to plough based systems, burnt off ground and overseeding within a growing crop. Offering a range of seeder units allows this adaptable machine to be used to sow grains, small seed crops, and stubble turnips as well as meadow mix seed varieties. With a standard hopper size of 410 litres, it's a suitable capacity to carry around 100kg of grass seeds yet able to handle lower seed rates of clover and brassicas at around 1kg/ acre. On request a smaller 200-litre hopper can be fitted, or the larger 660-litre hopper for the greater demands required for example when sowing grains. ■

Mission to boost milk from forage

Grass should be wilted as quickly as possible to 30 per cent dry matter, but not much beyond that.

Increasing milk produced from forage, and boosting business profitability as a result, is achievable on most UK dairy farms by setting realistic targets and focusing on improvements in key areas of grass silage making. This was the headline message from an industry forage briefing, where speakers from Germinal and Volac reported on the results of a major new survey that shows an overwhelming desire by dairy farmers to improve production from forage, yet herd costings continue to show stagnation in this critical benchmark. In a joint initiative to help dairy farmers, the companies launched their ‘Five for 500’ action plan – a focus on five key areas that can help deliver an extra 500 litres from forage. “Our survey of over 200 dairy farmers showed they are virtually unanimous in their quest for higher milk from forage, with 98 per cent

saying that performance in this area is either extremely important or very important to the future of their businesses,” said Germinal’s Helen Mathieu (left). “That makes absolute sense, because we know forage is the cheapest source of feed and herds with higher performance in this area are always highest ranked for profitability. “The frustrating part, as shown in our survey, is that less than half of dairy farmers actually know what their milk from forage figure is, and fewer still have set themselves a target, despite declaring their desire to improve.” Taking the survey results on board, Volac and Germinal are recommending a strategy of setting achievable targets and staying focused in their quest to improve. “There’s been little movement in overall milk from forage, certainly over the past 10 years, so we’re recommending a fresh approach that we hope will help a good proportion

of dairy farmers make real progress,” said Volac’s Peter Smith (right). “For a good majority, grass silage is the mainstay of the forage ration, so we’re recommending a focus on specific areas within the grass silage production process, each of which has potential to deliver a significant uplift in milk from forage. “We saw in our survey that around two-thirds of dairy farmers are not setting themselves a milk from forage improvement target. But for the one-third that are, the vast majority are aiming for up to an additional 500 litres. To achieve that target, cows will require an extra 8 megajoules per day coming from silage. So our recommended plan focuses on 5 areas within the grass silage making process where

simple actions can make that extra energy available – and therefore deliver that additional 500 litres.” Point number one is to plan a forage budget, highlighted Helen Mathieu. “Simple planning, based on the number of animals to be fed, target intakes and expected production per hectare will ensure the farm has enough silage of the right quality,” she said. “Planning of this nature, with contingency built in, could easily mean an additional 1kgDM/ head of quality silage intake. “Secondly, it’s vital to assess the raw material in the field, which means having a clear understanding of the potential performance of

Five simple actions to deliver +500 litres from forage PLAN your grass silage budget How many cows / youngstock to feed? What are target intakes? Are you producing enough? ASSESS grass yield and quality in the field What percentage of sown species remain? Is soil nutrition / soil condition right? Are weed populations excessive? IMPROVE grass yield and quality in the field Which fields to improve? To renovate or fully reseed? Are you using top RGCL varieties in a balanced mixture? REDUCE in field losses Are you mowing grass at optimum stage? Are you mowing at the right time of day? Are you maximising conditions for wilting? REDUCE ensiling losses Do you fully avoid soil contamination? Is clamp compaction adequate? Are you applying a proven additive?

Scarifying harrow for the ‘heaviest of work’ each of the fields ear-marked for silage making. Having this knowledge will allow the best decision making, and if that means a ley of higher quality ends up in the pit destined for the milking cow ration – as opposed to a poorer quality ley being ensiled – then that could raise the ME in silage by enough to make that significant difference. “Thirdly, we’d always recommend renovating or replacing leys routinely, to maintain productivity and quality. There’s no question that the higher ME/ha possible from keeping the proportion of sown species in the leys high will easily translate into higher milk from forage.” For point four, Peter Smith said the focus is on reducing in-field losses – most notably by ensuring grass is cut for silage before it comes into ear and by achieving efficient wilting. “Each day after ear emergence, grass becomes less and less digestible, so its energy content for the cow declines. Similarly, the longer that grass is wilted, the greater the loss in its digestibility. The aim should be to wilt it as quickly as possible to 30 per cent dry matter, but not much beyond that,” he said. “Finally, point five is to reduce ensiling losses. Using a quality additive has been proven to not only better preserve silage quantity but also quality – with analysis of 26 trials showing that for untreated silage with a digestibility of 65 D units, treating with Ecosyl gave an increase of four D units to the animal, which at a dry matter intake of 12kg/ day, is the equivalent of an extra 8 megajoules of energy. “We’re also urging farmers to calculate properly how much weight is needed for effective clamp consolidation. It’s easy to underestimate this, but grass at 30 per cent dry matter coming into the clamp even at a normal 100t/hr requires 25t of machinery rolling it,” he added. ■

The Kockerling Grasmaster is a scarifying harrow that is built for the professional user and contractors. Use of the vertical double tine intensifies the effect on the ground, says the manufacturer. The 8mm thick tine is strong enough to withstand the heaviest of work while the curved tine spring top allows the vertical leg to move in every direction levelling and tearing out dead grass. The 60 tines per tine field produce a tine spacing of 2.5cm. Each tine field follows the ground contours independently. This ensures that the whole field is worked equally even at high speeds. A hydraulic cylinder on the wheel/parallelogram

can adjust the working depth and the aggressiveness of the tines. Aggressive settings are ideal for aerating pastures. Less aggressive settings are particularly suitable for reseeding. When working in grassland with molehills or dried dung pats the height adjustable cross boards level the molehills and break up the dung pats leaving a much better finish. The cross boards are not fixed over the whole width of the machine but are divided up into sections. This allows optimum adaption to the ground contours. A mounted seeder is an option. The fan is powered by a PTO shaft which ensures a constant strong flow of air creating even distribution of seeds. The

seed is delivered down eight tubes in to the tine fields where the vibration of the tines spreads the seed over the whole working width. The Grasmaster is available in 3 and 6m working widths. ■

The Kockerling Grasmaster has 60 tines per tine field which work independently to ensure evenness.

Ag lubricants and more – all under one roof The lubrication demands and expectations for agricultural machinery are now greater than they have ever been, says Witham Group. Heavy-duty engine oils, universal oils and transmission fluids provide reliability to farmers, whatever the age and size of their vehicles and equipment. Designed to maximise performance and fuel economy in tough operating conditions and minimise component wear and tear, using the right quality oil and finding the right type of lubricant for the many types of equipment and machinery is absolutely vital, points out the company. Not having enough oil or using the wrong oil causes up to 10 per cent of all machinery and vehicle breakdowns. This means down time in the field and unnecessary maintenance costs. When choosing the right oil, it’s vital to choose a supplier that conforms to the latest standards. Using oil from a manufacturer that has approvals from the OEM helps ensure that warranty conditions are not jeopardised, and servicing costs are kept to a

minimum. Looking for endorsements such as membership of the UKLA (United Kingdom Lubricant Association), and signatories to the ATIEL European Letter of Conformance plus membership of the VLS (Verification of Lubrication Specification) provide a credible and trusted independent means to verify lubricant companies. To know what is needed for which machinery is not easy, and ordering lubricants from one place, greases from another, anti-freeze and coolants from somewhere else is not always cost effective, says the company. Hand cleaners, traffic film removers, screen wash and other products also need to be considered. Witham Group offers a full range of approved oils and greases and a vast growing range of workshop cleaning products which can be ordered at the same time as paints, coatings for fencings and outbuildings, and anti-freeze. To ensure that all the right products required are within one easy order, refer to the company’s website, (www.withamgroup.co.uk) concludes the firm. ■

Keep reseeds clean this spring to restore silage stocks Leystar, a new selective herbicide from Corteva Agriscience has three effective active ingredients, fluroxypyr, clopyralid and florasulam, which combine to control a wide spectrum of annual weeds, such as fat hen, red shank and mayweeds, as well as seedling docks and thistles. Leystar can be applied from 1 February to 31 August in new sown leys in 200 litres of water, so can be used on autumn-drilled and springsown grass reseeds. It has good grass safety, but will kill clover or any broad-leaved weeds that have not germinated when the herbicide is sprayed.

Best results “For best results apply to weeds that are small and actively growing, and when the grass has reached the three-leaf stage,” says Dr Perry. “Allow an interval of four weeks after application before cutting grass to optimise the effect of the herbicide. Do not roll the grass for 10 days before or 7 days after application. If the fields are to be grazed, animals can return just 7 days after application.” ■

Silage stocks are running low on many farms this spring, after last year’s awkward grass growing season meant less conserved forage was made. This means farmers are looking for ways to make as much silage as possible this year – starting with a large first cut. “There was a large amount of reseeding of poor performing grass fields last autumn,” explains Corteva Agriscience weed biology specialist, Dr Nicola Perry. “Now is a good time to check whether a herbicide spray is needed to clean these fields up. Getting rid of annual weeds such as chickweed or seedling perennial weeds such as docks and thistles, is vital to ensure the investment in reseeding realises its full potential.” Recent Teagasc trials in Ireland held from 2010 to 2015, have shown that long-term control of docks can be achieved best by applying a suitable herbicide onto small docks shortly after reseeding. This will give almost complete control of the docks. Even those that do emerge in following years, rarely establish due to strong competition from the established grass.

Some autumn-sown leys are now filling up with germinating weeds.

Dairy-Tech

Gold Cup for North Yorkshire farmer

Billed as the event for the new generation of dairy farmer, manager and technician, Dairy-Tech got underway in early February. Latest bale processor on display

Philip Metcalfe of Metcalfe Farms Ltd was this year’s winner of the RABDF Gold Cup, which is the premier national dairy herds competition, recognising efficiency in commercial milk production, presented to him by HRH The Princess Royal. Metcalfe Farms has a 1,300 head Holstein indoor herd in Wensleydale, North Yorkshire.

Easy dry-matter measurement A cutting edge joint development and partnership between Eurofins Agro UK and Consumer Physics has produced a pocket-size scanner that measures the dry matter of silage, enabling farmers to feed the correct weight to their cattle. The scanner sends the information through an app to the farmer’s phone.

Teagle Machinery from Truro displayed its latest Tomahawk 8555 Dual Chop Bale Processor, which chops straw, feeds hay and distributes silage. Teagle, which has been manufacturing agricultural machinery in Cornwall since 1943, employs 150 people, exports to 52 countries around the world and is Britain’s largest independent UK agricultural equipment manufacturer, the company says. Pictured, UK sales manager Jim Squires (left) proudly shows off the Teagle Tomahawk to dairy farmers at the event

New outdoor feeder ticks all the boxes Pig equipment specialist Con-Tented Products has developed an outdoor feeder that easily converts from a ration feeder to an adlib feeder via a simple shutter mechanism. The new Adlib Ration Farrow Feeder is available as either a standalone feeder or as part of a complete system and can be fitted with an optional integrated 1kg feed dispenser that is especially suitable for feeding purebred stock and young sows where extra help is often required to conserve body condition during lactation. The feeder has a 70kg feed capacity per sow, is vermin and weather proof

and normally only requires refilling once per week saving time and machinery. Jamie MacDonald of Con-Tented Products who helped to design the new feeder believes it fills an important gap in the outdoor equipment market: “The Adlib Ration Farrow Feeder is a simple, low cost way to control the quantity of feed given to the sow which saves money and helps keep the sow in the desired condition. When coupled with our anti-bacterial drinker tank the sow also benefits from easy access to both clean water and feed at a single point” he said. ■

The Con-Tended outdoor feeder can be converted from ration feeder to adlib.

Farmers Guide 25 Years Ago In March 1994, Farmers Guide featured a new 4-model range of Series 70 New Holland Ford 4wd tractors. With 170–240 horsepower engines, the new tractors had “revolutionary powershift transmissions with 18-forward and 9-reverse speeds, and optional creep speed”, which New Holland explained was unlike any other transmission on the market. Basic prices ranged from £62,500–£75,900 for the 240hp 8970. Ernest Cozens commented on a very wet winter which was making the sugar beet harvesting campaign exceptionally difficult. In order to keep going some farmers and contractors were having to resort to single row machines. He also noted that Ford had sold Boreham House, which for many years had been used for its dealer and operator training courses. John Hodge reported on the Doe Show, still held each year at Ulting in Essex. A large number of visitors spent time on the many machinery stands including Lely, Overum, Farm Force and Allman. Ernest Doe had a full range of New Holland Ford and Fiat tractors at the event; some working on a nearby field where budding competition ploughmen were able to chat with John Hill, who at the time was the World Champion ploughman. Farmers Guide reported that the agricultural co-operative United Oilseeds was running its first trial of biodiesel engines in three Rover 2.8 SLD models using fuel derived from oilseed rape. It was noted that, at the time, 1.3 million acres of land were in set-aside and it was suggested that some of it could be used for the

production of biodiesel. On the machinery front sugar beet machinery manufacturer Garford would be importing Kleine six-row harvesters in time for the next harvest and, following a parting with Grimme, Richard Pearson was making its own potato harvesters and bedformers. The East Anglian John Deere dealers – all 14 of them – advertised two new green and yellow tractors with 110 and 120hp 6-cylinder engines. Manns of Saxham delivered its 50th JCB Fastrac tractor, Knight launched its first air-sleeve sprayer and Claas reported plenty of interest in its combine harvesters fitted with APS. The Lamma event held on the Lincolnshire Showground had been restricted to machinery manufacturers based in the county but, for the first time, companies from outside the county boundary had been invited to take a stand at the 1994 show. Almost 90 companies took up the offer and visitors turned up from all over the country. ■

Equipment for the British Anzani included a plough, cultivator, disc harrows, riding seat and a trailer.

Pedestrian controlled garden tractors, in particular the JAPengined British Anzani Iron Horse and BMB Plowmate, were used on many small farms in the 1940s and 1950s. The first British Anzanis were built in 1940 and more than 10,000 had been made when production came to an end in 1956. Alessandro Anzani, who was making motorcycles in Italy and France in the late 1800s, formed the British Anzani Engineering Co at Hampton Hill in Middlesex in 1927, where he made engines for aeroplanes, motorcycles and speedboats. The British Anzani Iron Horse

had a 6hp, 4-stroke air-cooled JAP engine, a centrifugal clutch, a 3-forward and 1-reverse gearbox, a top speed of 4.5mph, worm and wheel reduction box and roller chain drive to both wheels. The engine, with an oil bath air cleaner and a Wico magneto, used about 2 gallons of petrol in a full day. Available with either spade lug steel wheels or optional pneumatic tyres, the wheels could be moved along their axles to give track settings from 24–36in. When production came to an end in 1956 some of the parts left from the days of the Iron Horse were used to make a small number of 4wd British Anzani tractors.

Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be in touch... We know you love receiving Farmers Guide, but for us to be able to keep sending it to you free of charge, we need some simple information. The diagrams opposite highlight some of what we have learnt from talking to readers about their farming businesses, and by showing our advertisers the extent of Farmers Guideâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s popularity among farmers and contractors, ensures we can keep sending out over 29,000 copies of the magazine each month. In addition, because we recognise that you are among the most important people in agriculture, we offer free advertising for farmers and contractors in the magazine and online. In fact, since we began publishing Farmers Guide in 1979, we have printed more than 200,000 farmer adverts! Our database manager Harriet (right) personally calls every reader of Farmers Guide once every three years to ensure the data we hold is up to date, and to check that you still want to receive the magazine. Sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll only take a few minutes of your time, and we thank you for your co-operation. We never share your data with any third party company. Data Protection rules mean we have to keep in touch to check you want to keep receiving Farmers Guide.

About People New product manager for fungicides

Recruitment and About People Email: classified@farmersguide.co.uk

Melanie Wardle has been appointed fungicides product manager for Adama Agricultural Solutions UK. She will be responsible for developing and implementing product campaigns for the company’s range of fungicides and for communicating trials results and technical product data to key stakeholders. Melanie joins Adama from

Syngenta where she held roles including marketing manager, wheat campaign manager and marketing communications manager. “Melanie is well-known and respected within the crop protection sector as an experienced and successful marketing professional,” explains Adama’s technical and marketing director., Ali Bosher. “I look forward to working alongside her to promote the best use of Adama’s wide range of cereal, oilseed rape and vegetable fungicides.”

Technical manager role for Ruth Ruth Stanley has been appointed UK technical manager for Life Scientific. It’s a new role within the company which it says reflects the growing portfolio of its off-patent crop protection products registered for use in the UK.

Previously campaign manager at BASF for cereal herbicides and PGRs, Ruth brings a wealth of experience and first hand farming knowledge to the role, as she is an active partner in her family’s arable farming enterprise in Leicestershire. She is also a BASIS examiner. Ruth will be the point of contact for advisers and growers providing them with technical support.

Challenges and opportunities ahead Agricultural buying organisation, the AF Group, has appointed Neil Beadle as seeds business manager. Neil brings with him a wealth of experience across the industry having previously worked for Bayer CropScience, DuPont and as UK country manager for FMC. Neil will be supported by Chris Haydock and Lindy Blanchard who, with many years’ experience

delivering seeds, crop nutrition and crop protection products and advice to our members, represent a formidable crop production team, says AF. “The British agricultural industry has always been responsive – there are challenges ahead, but significant prospects too,” says Neil. “I see countless opportunities for AF in the next few years, which is progressive and becoming much more strategic with its suppliers and members.”

Agronomy company names new MD Agronomy firm ProCam has appointed Diane Heath as its UK managing director. Diane brings more than 20 years’ experience in technical and commercial agriculture having previously worked for a research-based crop protection manufacturer and in distribution, including roles in field-based agronomy, sales and marketing and, more recently, as head of crop

protection for a distributor. “This is a hugely exciting time to join ProCam,” said Mrs Heath. “While crop protection remains at the heart of what we offer, recent years have seen increasing expertise in seeds and traits, crop nutrition, biological products, conservation agriculture and precision farming. All of these allow us to provide a fully integrated service – something that will be increasingly important as farmers face a number of technical challenges over coming years.”

Promotion for Sam Sam Bell has been promoted to commercial director for CF Fertilisers following the retirement of Mike Buchan. Formerly head of sales and marketing for the company, Sam joined CF Fertilisers at its Incebased headquarters in Cheshire in 2014 after a successful career in marketing and commercial

roles across chemical and manufacturing industries. “We are delighted Sam has agreed to take on the new position and continue the great work she has already started,” says managing director David Hopkins. “Agriculture faces challenging times ahead and we can think of no better person to build on the hard work and achievements delivered by Mike Buchan.”

Consultant appointments Crop production specialist Hutchinsons has appointed Keith Norman as external consultant to its technical and training teams and David Neale as specialist consultant to its seed business. Keith will provide consultancy support to the technical areas of the business and will help to develop the Foundation and Academy agronomist training programmes. Keith recently retired from his previous role as technical

director for Velcourt where he supported a team of 45 farm managers responsible for farming more than 50,000ha of commercial crops. Meanwhile David will provide consultancy support across several areas of the business, including the development of new opportunities for the fast growing Hutchinsons seed business. He will support the development of business opportunities with Hutchinsons agronomy teams in Wiltshire, Gloucestershire, Oxfordshire and surrounding areas and will provide the business with insight and updates on activities in the grain marketing sector.

Parts supply and marketing co-ordinator A new recruit to the Argo Tractors team handling sales and distribution of Landini and McCormick products in the UK and Ireland has been appointed to focus on parts supply to agricultural machinery dealers. Stuart Watson’s territory takes in Ireland, Scotland and the north of England, enabling national parts sales manager Tony Burgess to focus on Wales and the rest of England. “Argo Tractors has an excellent online parts finding system that our dealers use to quickly locate the correct items for particular tractor models, and we back that up with our parts technical support staff at Harworth,” Stuart Watson said. Argo Tractors UK and Ireland MD, Adrian Winnett, welcomed

Stuart’s appointment: “His career specialising in the parts side of the agricultural machinery business gives us a very experienced manager for this territory.” Rachael Groves’ appointment in the new role of marketing co-ordinator meant organising every aspect of the company’s Lamma show stand from working on the build schedule and ensuring the social media technology was up and running, to staging two dealer meetings during the event. “It was absolutely non-stop in the weeks leading up to the show and no two days were the same,” said Rachael. “But it was also very exciting to be part of a team putting on such an ambitious, modern and stylish exhibit of Landini and McCormick tractors at the show.”
