Out & About With Farmers Guide editor Rachel Hicks and the team Welcome to the November issue. It’s been a dramatic few weeks, to say the least. Global fuel prices and the sensational media response led to the panic-buying of fuel, further exacerbating the haulage issues within the food and services supply chain. The unprecedented cost of natural gas caused fertiliser production to grind to a halt – a situation temporarily relieved by aid from the Government which allowed CF Industries to reopen one plant for three weeks, but this was not a long-term solution and at the time of writing in mid-October, CF remains withdrawn from the market for new purchases. Of course, stopping fertiliser production leads to multiple problems across the food supply chain – the UK produces 60% of its own CO2, used in abattoirs to stun animals for slaughter and in the food packaging process, amongst others. The pig and poultry sectors have been hit particularly hard, with existing labour shortage problems in abattoirs having been exacerbated by the CO2 shortage. An update issued by the National Pig Association on 13th October was more positive, however. During BBC 4’s Farming Today programme, NPA chief executive Zoe Davies explained that there had been a positive change within government in terms of its response to the crisis – due in part to the protests, as well as mass media coverage and the information various associations, including the NPA, have been feeding into governmental departments. According to Ms Davies, the Cabinet Office is now directly involved, and she is “quietly optimistic” that necessary changes, such as the removal of some of the red tape around work visas – particularly the language barrier – will be made.

Meanwhile, the NFU has called for an urgent review of Defra’s future farming programme for England, including the postponement of Basic Payment Scheme (BPS) reductions in 2022 and 2023, as farmers and growers continue to deal with these multiple challenges. NFU president Minette Batters said: “This change in agricultural policy represents the biggest transformation for farmers in generations, and the NFU and its members want – and need – this transition to be a success. “[...] But I really fear for the future success of farming in this country if the government presses ahead with its current timetable to transition to its new agriculture policy schemes which simply aren’t ready. [...] I believe implementing a short delay now to BPS reductions will allow government the time it needs to deliver durable schemes and policies [...].” Thankfully, it’s not all been doom and gloom this month. The Farmers Guide team had a stand at the 40th Dairy Show at the Bath & West showground, which had over 5,000 visitors and 250 trade stands. Head of shows at Bath & West, Alan Lyons said: “Seeing the showground lively with visitors, trade stands and exhibitors was a welcome sight after what has been a very challenging year for everyone.” Machinery editor David has had his ear to the ground on farm, and also attended various open days – you’ll find the write-ups in the following pages. We’ll also be out in force later in November, at the Midland Machinery Show, BP2021 and CropTec, so please stop and say hello if you see any of us. FG

Despite the inclement weather, mach inery editor David Williams jumped at the chance to farm-test Kubota’s latest M6-series tracto rs – see the full write-up on page 71.

And finally…. An old farmer in Ireland calls his son in London the day before Christmas Eve and says: “I hate to ruin your day but I have to tell you that your mother and I are divorcing.” “Dad, what are you talking about?” the son shouts. “We can’t stand the sight of each other,” the father says. “And I’m fed up of talking about this, so you call your sister in Leeds and tell her.” Frantically, the son calls his sister, who explodes: “Like hell, they’re getting divorced!” She calls her father immediately and screams: “You are NOT getting divorced. I’m calling my brother back and we’ll both be there tomorrow. Don't do a thing until I get there!” The old man hangs up his phone and smiling, turns to his wife and says: “Done! They’re coming for Christmas – and they’re paying their own way!” Thank you to J Avril Radford for this month’s joke.

Grain & Fertiliser Advice

Wheat futures might be nearing record highs, but real gross margin calculations could indicate a less positive result With the fertiliser industry facing huge uncertainty, the costs behind grain production rising and agricultural reform affecting every stage of this production, some serious questions need to be asked.

It is this last thought that many grain consumers may not be wanting to hear. The old saying that “big prices build big crops the following year” may hold some water, but the more I hear and the more numbers I crunch I do wonder what next year may bring. Smaller crops due to less fertiliser? Dirty crops due to less chemistry? Badly stored crops due to large energy bills meaning driers are used sparingly? Ultimately, if I was a consumer of grain anywhere around the world, I would be wondering what the future holds and how best to protect myself. They may be happy to believe we will eat less meat, so they will use less grain by dropping demand for feed grains, but if biofuel demand doesn’t get capped all you do is close one door and open another. The world has some serious questions to ask and farmers have some serious number crunching to do. Meanwhile, governments need to get actively involved and that starts by understanding the unintended consequences of climate change alongside changing trade and agricultural policies of the world’s top three edible plants: wheat, maize and rice.

If you consider for feed wheat in the UK this year the cost of inputs – that’s all of and when will it peak? It’s an easy them – and, regardless of if you question to ask, but not one that I bought your fertiliser or seed early, feel can be answered. After all, how the latest cost of chemicals, the cost many consumers in 2016 would of diesel for drying and tractors or have anticipated prices moving machinery, the price of machinery, from £100 to £200+ five years later? the cost of labour...

The answer to this

Fertiliser matters The fertiliser industry is currently experiencing a turbulent market to say the least, says Openfield’s fertiliser manager Lucy Hassall. Record high gas prices have prompted several European ammonia producers to curtail or halt operations, along with CF Industries in the UK. Securing vessels of imported product has been proving difficult with the reduction in available tonnage and a preference from European producers to service their domestic markets. In mid-October, CF remained withdrawn from the market for new purchases, with no indication as to when it will return with new terms. With tight availability of product coupled with the current haulage issues we are facing, it is advisable to cover enough for first applications as terms from suppliers become available. Applying fertiliser by combining nitrogen and sulphur increases nitrogen use efficiency, which means more for your money and less wastage – which is key with the current increase in prices. The “little and often” approach reduces the risk of leaching and ensures the sulphur will be available for uptake when needed during periods of rapid growth. FG

News in brief NFU launches new welfare in transport guidance

Case IH announces new Oxfordshire dealership KFS, based in Chipping Norton, has been appointed as a new Case IH dealer. The Krone-owned business will provide a full dealership service for the Case IH machinery range alongside its existing Krone and Lemken equipment. Commenting on the development, Paul Harrison, Case IH business director UK & ROI, said: “We’re delighted that KFS is joining our dealer network. The dealership is a well-respected business working with strong independent brands, covering an area of the UK that was previously open for Case IH. “We look forward to working with the KFS team as they grow sales of our products in the years ahead.” Eddie Caulfield, general manager at KFS commented: “The addition of the Case IH franchise, further strengthens our position of providing specialist machinery solutions to our customer base. “Since moving to the area two years ago, we’ve seen our customer base grow as the Krone and Lemken brands become established. The addition of Case IH to our lineup means we’re now in a position to offer a wide range of tractors and combines, to complement our forage harvesting and seed establishment offerings.”

CB radio is small but mighty The Thunderpole T-600 gives maximum performance from a mini CB Radio. Designed to be tiny yet tough, at just over 10cm wide it easily fits in any vehicle to provide simple communications. The featherweight T-600 weighs in at 257g but packs a punch with its powerful 4W output and full-size fist mic, making it just as capable as the biggest of CBs. The bright blue LED display and backlit buttons allow you to see it in any vehicle in any level of light – day or night. Each T-600 comes preset to the UK channels, and the ‘mode’ button gives you instant access to eight frequency bands which allow use all around Europe. Plus, it’s built using a super-strong aluminium chassis, making this versatile radio ideal for even the most demanding environments. For more information visit www.thunderpole.co.uk

The NFU has launched new livestock and poultry welfare in transport guidance as part of its commitment to improve animal welfare during travel. This comes following Defra’s recent response to the welfare in transport consultation, in which the NFU highlighted that the focus of both government and industry should be to ensure the best possible welfare outcomes. This includes focusing on the types of journeys made, the animal’s fitness to travel, loading and unloading animals properly

and driver training. NFU livestock board chairman Richard Findlay said: “Maintaining high animal welfare in transport is a priority for all livestock farmers [...]. This new guidance demonstrates our commitment to prioritising welfare and further improving our already high standards of animal welfare. We will continue to work with Defra to find evidence-based solutions that deliver practical and meaningful welfare improvements.”

NFU poultry board chairman Thomas Wornham said: “We’ve always maintained that it is the overall quality of the journey that determines animal welfare during transport and this guidance highlights the important role farmers play in maintaining our high welfare standards.” NFU dairy board chairman Michael Oakes said: “This straightforward guidance, in particular the new sectorspecific posters, offer real clarity in outlining the expectations of best practice.”

UK agricultural tractor registrations – September 2021 For the first time since October 2020, UK registrations of agricultural tractors (over 50hp) fell below their level a year before in September, albeit by just 3%. However, given that the total for September 2020 was the highest for that month since 2013, this year's total of 1,159 was still a strong performance. It was higher than the number of machines registered in September during any of the five years prior to 2020 and was 20% above the average during that period. The total of 9,852 machines

registered so far this year is 19% higher than at the same stage last year and 8% above the previous five-year average. This strong performance came despite ongoing disruptions to global supply chains, which are delaying delivery of some machines and meaning lead times for new orders are lengthening. Without this, the number of machines registered in recent months would no doubt have

been higher still. Month: 1,159 units -3.3% change (compared with September 2020). Year to date: 9,852 units +19.1% change (compared with January–September 2020).

On-farm delivery service for original parts launches Kverneland dealer JG Paxton & Sons is launching a free, direct-to-farm delivery service for original parts to improve support for its customers in the Borders region. Called Paxtons Borders Direct, the dealership is looking to boost aftersales service and efficiency for its Kverneland customers.

The daily delivery service will be provided by area parts and machinery salesman David Taylor, using a double-cab pickup truck. For bulky parts and extensive orders that could exceed the pickup truck’s load capacity, the service will be further enhanced using a trailer. “We’re really pleased to be

able to offer a reliable, efficient solution for new and existing customers in the Borders region,” explained Paxton’s managing director Peter Tallentire. “This direct-to-farm service has the advantage of saving customers valuable time travelling to and from our Alnwick depot for non-urgent parts.”

News in brief Opening of Northampton superstore Machine Mart has announced the opening of its new Northampton superstore. Machine Mart is Britain’s biggest specialist supplier of tools and machinery. Established in 1981 and with a growing network of

65 superstores nationwide, Machine Mart has thousands of tools and machinery on display. The company prides itself on providing quality brand products at competitive prices, as well as excellent customer service, technical know-how and after-sales support. With everything for trade, DIY, garages, workshops and gardens at low prices, customers can choose from

air compressors, water pumps, welders, generators, metalworking, woodworking, power tools, building, gardening, tool chests, a massive choice of hand tools and much, much more. Top brands including Clarke, DeWalt, Makita, Bosch and many more are available. Same day call and collect and local delivery are also offered from this store.

Aiming to quadruple support to farming people by 2024 RABI has confirmed the charity’s ambitious goal to reach even more farming people over the next three years, intending to increase the level of available support fourfold by the end of its fiveyear strategic period in 2024. Looking ahead, RABI will continue to provide support to those who are no longer farming due to ill health or age. Supplementing these existing programmes, the charity will additionally be increasing its focus on pre-emptive and

proactive support services to farming people working in the sector. This is, in part, a response to the growing levels of farming families living on a relative low income. “Looking to the future, RABI’s long-term intent is to work in partnerships to provide support for up to 25,000 farming people annually, as a more collaborative approach with partner organisations is developed,” says RABI chief executive, Alicia Chivers.

RABI’s strategic evolution includes implementing the following: • Introducing a 24/7 helpline • Collaborating with partners to offer consistent, targeted support across England and Wales • Supporting best practice through volunteer network • Launching preliminary peerto-peer pilot schemes at a regional and national level • Developing holistic support packages with specialist and sector providers.

Agco announces further brand re-alignment Agco has agreed changes with existing dealer partners in South Scotland on the distribution of the Valtra and Massey Ferguson brands. These changes support Agco’s long-term strategy driving brand exclusivity, full-line responsibility, and appropriate brand bundling. Under these changes, Scot Agri Limited becomes an exclusive Massey Ferguson dealer for the Lothian & Borders area, with outlets in Haddington and Kelso

complementing their existing Massey Ferguson outlets in Forfar, Huntly and Fraserburgh, covering Angus and Aberdeenshire. In addition, Ancroft Tractors Limited will add the Valtra franchise to its existing Fendt business, making Ancroft Tractors an exclusive Fendt and Valtra dealer for the Lothian & Borders area and North Northumberland area, operating from their outlets at Macmerry, Kelso, Berwick-upon-Tweed and

their service centre at Swarland near Alnwick. “These [...] are the latest changes that will strengthen brand dedication and focus which will continue to deliver market share growth for each of our brands,” outlines Mark Casement, director distribution management for Agco.

New Suffolk-based dealer for Merlo UK Merlo UK has further extended its Green Network of agricultural dealers in the East of England by appointing Marst Agri Services of Hadleigh, Suffolk. Founded in 2017 by Mark and Stewart Butcher, Marst Agri Services has, to date, established a successful business specialising in the servicing and support of Merlo telescopic handlers. “We are delighted to welcome Marst Agri to the Merlo agricultural dealer network. Mark and Stewart bring with them a wealth of existing Merlo knowledge. We look forward to joining Mark and Stewart on the next step of their journey as Marst Agri continues to grow and expand,” commented Owen Buttle, national sales manager at Merlo UK. Operating from well-equipped premises, Marst Agri intends to build on its already established strong local reputation for parts and service with sales of new machines. Offering the full range of Merlo agricultural telescopic handlers and genuine attachments, Marst Agri is also able to provide Merlo retail finance to support those purchases.

Driver shortages affecting many parts of agriculture supply chain Driver shortages are affecting many parts of the agricultural supply sector, ranging from the delivery of inputs to collection of produce, according to the Agri-Supply Coalition. This is adding to challenges caused by other labour shortages and widespread disruption to global supply chains. As a result, the Coalition is calling on farmers and their suppliers to plan ahead and maintain a dialogue. The Coalition, comprising nine trade and professional associations involved with the supply of goods, services and advice to UK farmers, has observed recent difficulties that range from delayed imports of raw materials and delivery of spare parts to the ability to collect grain and other produce from farms. Driver shortages have been compounded by a range of issues including Covid-19 and self-isolation, disrupted global supply chains, and EU:UK trade difficulties to create growing haulage and delivery delays. For farmers, at present, the message is clear that requirements need to be planned further ahead than normal. For the supply industry, it is a need to communicate regularly and openly with customers on what is feasible.

Variety choice crucial for the later drilling scenario Delayed or late drilling of winter wheat, considered to be from mid-October onwards, is now common practice on farms today – particularly for black-grass management, in a second wheat situation and for those who are drilling wheat after sugar beet or potatoes. However, late drilling presents a unique set of challenges to the crop, points out Limagrain UK’s arable technical manager Ron Granger (pictured right). “Soils will inevitably become cooler and wetter

as winter draws in, so it is important to proceed with care and consideration in order to get the crop well established. “It is key to make a distinction by

Strength – Reliabilty – Quality

choosing varieties that will cope well rather than be challenged by the situation,” he says. “Get it wrong, and you could be facing fairly substantial yield penalties, yet this is totally avoidable. Characteristics of wheats that suit this slot are strong tillering

and vigorous, combined with good rooting attributes and a semi prostrate growth habit in the winter.” He adds that, as a consequence, crops drilled later will not have been in the ground as long as those drilled earlier in the autumn, so the chosen variety needs to be quick off the blocks in the spring, once growing conditions are favourable. “This is especially important where there is black-grass, as you continued over…

need a variety that will compete with its rapid growth rather than sit and tiller flat to the ground, eventually becoming smothered by it.

“

One of the single most important factors in getting a late drilled crop off to a good start is to use the correct seed rate.

“The theory is not complicated,” he notes.“This is why LG Skyscraper suits the black-grass situation over a variety like LG Sundance which is high tillering with a late plant development in the spring.” Limagrain has conducted a range of trials over the years looking at which varieties suit the later-drilled slot – which includes both winter and spring wheat varieties sown in the later drilling situation after the end of October. “LG Skyscraper was by far the most consistent performer in this position, delivering high yield potential continuously over very differing climatic seasons.” Data from several seasons of work also suggests that taller wheats, such as LG Skyscraper, are at an advantage in the later drilling scenario because larger plant canopies also play an important role

in keeping black-grass ear numbers and seed return to the minimum, says Mr Granger. He also points out that one of the single most important factors in getting a late drilled crop off to a good start is to use the correct seed rate. “Seed rates after the end of October are difficult to quantify, specifically as they will be more determined by the seasonal weather and seedbed preparation at the time of drilling. “Generally, seed rates are increased the further drilling moves towards the winter months to compensate for the impact on tillering, as a result of cooler temperatures and shorter days. “In good conditions in early November, the target should be a seed rate of 375–400 seeds/m2, increasing to 400–475 seeds/m2 at later drill dates, or in a black-grass or poor seedbed situation. “Effective seed treatments for root disease and insect control, especially if wheat bulb fly is a concern, alongside good slug control should be considered as valuable tools for good establishment, especially in known high-risk situations.” He notes that later drilled varieties often have the advantage of requiring lower inputs and may not require an earlier autumn herbicide. “Growers should also choose varieties with a good disease resistance profile, certainly against mildew, as this can be problematic on some soil types in the late drilled situation.” FG

Spring wheat or winter wheat variety? Mr Granger recognises that spring wheat varieties do have a place in the rotation for late drilling, especially in a black-grass situation, but points out that some winter wheat varieties can be grown through to the end of January without significant yield penalties. After January, some spring wheat varieties come into their own regarding yield performance, and should be a serious consideration if black-grass is the major threat on farm, he says. With second wheats, the added pressure from high levels of take-all inoculum and eyespot are important to consider when choosing a variety for this very testing situation, he points out. “Not all wheat varieties perform in this very testing situation so it’s important growers choose the correct varieties.” Again, LG Skyscraper has performed well in this situation, highlighted by the AHDB Recommended List and more significantly by good on farm performance. In a second wheat situation, with a known eyespot history, varieties that carry the Rendezvous PcH1 gene will secure a greater resistance for ensuring final yield potential.

Resistance breakdown: Septoria’s resurgence in 2021 Dr Cathy Hooper, RAGT Seeds technical sales manager, reviews the late Septoria tritici epidemic that hit many wheat crops this season. In recent years, the talk around disease in winter wheat has invariably been about yellow rust. Mild winters followed by warm dry springs, coupled with seemingly ever-changing race populations, meant this disease has been the hot topic rather than Septoria tritici, which we were always told was the major disease in our maritime climate.

Atypical septoria lesions, more orange than brown with very small pycnidia, were evident in wheat crops this season.

In fact, until this season, the last time anybody got excited about septoria was back in 2012. However, in June this year, growers started reporting unexpectedly high levels of the disease. This followed a cold dry April, when crops were stressed and disease levels were low. T0s were missed or reduced. Fast forward to May and, unlike 2020, this year it turned wet – often very wet. Fungicide timings became stretched in a lot of cases. Reports starting coming in of varieties that were displaying higher levels of septoria than their Recommended List resistance ratings would suggest, with soft Group 3s that had Cougar in their parentage being affected the most. Wheat varieties without Cougar in their parentage also showed higher levels of septoria this season, potentially because of high levels of microdochium. To make matters worse, there were reports that fungicide treatments, including the latest active ingredients, had performed less well at controlling septoria this season. However, given that most fungicides are less effective against microdochium, this would have compounded the visually higher disease symptoms in treated crops. Certainly, the wet May and the first year since the loss of chlorothalonil have provided conditions for the perfect septoria storm. continued over…

…from previous page

On my travels around the country this summer, the levels of septoria I saw in June and July were the highest I had seen for some years, but very variable. Infection levels I recorded in untreated trials ranged from 10–60% on the same variety, depending on location. Cougar was added to the RL in 2013. In 2015, higher-than-expected disease levels were seen, and after an AHDB-funded investigation it was concluded that the loss of resistance at the time was limited to Cougar, with no other varieties affected. In Ireland last year, high levels of septoria infection were observed on some varieties. Again, this appeared to be linked to Cougar-derived ones. However, if you take a closer look at individual varieties, the picture remains unclear and it is difficult to condemn every variety that has Cougar in the parentage: Barrel Kerrin Skyscraper Extase Cougar crosses Firefly RGT Saki LG Astronomer LG Prince RGT Silversurfer

Most varieties on the RL have multigenic resistance to Septoria tritici, which means that although it’s extremely difficult to breed a variety with a 9 for septoria (unlike for yellow rust where there is major gene resistance), it does mean that the resistance is more durable and unlikely to break down rapidly if the pathogen virulence changes. The good news is that the fungicide sensitivity of the new septoria isolate remains unchanged. We’re likely to see septoria ratings for most

Average percent S. tritici-infection in untreated June Centium Advert Farmers Guide -trials, 210mmx148mm.pdf 2021 (Scored by C Hooper)

varieties on the new RL come down, some more than others, but there will be no huge drops we often see in yellow rust ratings. However, these ratings are national averages, so it’s important that growers visit their local field trials during the season to see how the varieties they may wish to grow are performing. Needless to say, if we see a return to ‘normal’ warm dry springs in 2022, yellow rust will become the hot topic again. FG

AHDB issues Septoria tritici ratings early As predicted by Dr Hooper, since this article was written AHDB has issued the Recommended Lists (RL) 2022/23 Septoria tritici ratings early, following high levels of the disease in the 2020/21 growing season and concerns about the breaking down of resistance. Paul Gosling, who leads the RL project at AHDB, said: “Following subdued septoria levels in RL trials and commercial crops during early spring, the disease increased rapidly in June. It looked as if there would be a downward shift in disease ratings for those varieties with the old Cougar variety in their parentages. Analysis of disease data has translated to lower ratings for many varieties, with ‘Cougartypes’, as expected, suffering the largest falls.” Mr Gosling said: “It is impossible to know how the septoria population will evolve. The Cougarvirulent isolates could become more common in Scotland, but their frequency could also reduce – we simply don’t know. Disease ratings are only able to reflect recent pathogen populations, they can’t predict the future.” The early release of the Septoria tritici disease ratings includes the standard dataset, which is based on three years’ data (each year weighted equally), and ratings based on 2021 data alone. The largest downward shifts in the single-season dataset are associated with varieties with Cougar in their parentages. Although the smaller one-year dataset introduces volatility into the ratings, it may help indicate the level of resistance in the coming season and guide the tailoring of fungicide programmes.

Late but busy start for processing farm-saved seed NAAC mobile seed processors have reported that they have been very busy this autumn processing farm-saved seed. The autumn season got off to a later-thanhoped-for start, following the unfavourable harvest weather that many farmers experienced this year. The main seed being processed is winter wheat. Seed quality is very variable around the country, with the best quality seed being reported mainly in the North, West and SouthWest of England. The wet weather during the summer and the early harvest period has resulted in a lot of samples showing some seed-borne disease. The vast majority of farmers are using good quality seed treatments to get good control of this disease and get their crops off to the best possible start. There has also been a significant increase in demand for seed for second wheat crops, where Latitude seed treatment is proving a very popular choice. Certified seed has been quite expensive again this year and deliveries have been delayed, with problems getting haulage in some areas. Mobile processors have helped to avoid a big shortfall in seed supply this autumn, as the farmsaved seed does not have to leave the farm. NAAC mobile seed processors have at the same time saved farmers a huge amount of money, it reckons – typically £50–100/t of seed compared

to buying in certified seed. Modern mobile seed processors have sophisticated cleaning and treatment machinery, meaning farm-saved seed quality compares favourably with other seed options. Lower seed costs also help with farmers’ cash-flow in a difficult year for many growers. Looking ahead to the spring season, mobile seed processors expect to be busy again as farmers look to keep their costs under tight control. Supplies of certified seed of some varieties may be limited, and strong demand for certain key varieties means that prices for

certified seed will be high again. Farmers with any over-yeared seed are advised to get the seed tested before sowing as it can lose some germination and vigour in storage. It is worth remembering, however, that certain seed-borne diseases, like bunt and fusarium in wheat, and leaf stripe and loose smut in barley, can only effectively be controlled by using a seed treatment with no effective spray remedy available afterwards. These so called ‘forgotten diseases’ can rapidly flare up on some farms and reduce yield and marketability of the crop. Seed treatments offer a cost-effective way of managing these diseases. Seed treatment is also available to help reduce take-all in winter cereals. FG

Top tips for farm-saving seed autumn 2021/spring 2022: • • • • • •

Remember to ask for seed testing well in advance of drilling Select bold seed from your best fields if possible Store 20–25% more as grown seed than you need to allow for screening losses Get your mobile processor to use a gravity selector/gravity separator on your seed to boost seed germination and vigour Use a standard seed treatment plus additional seed treatment where wheat bulb fly, wireworm or take-all is a concern. A seed treatment containing Sedaxane may help establishment especially when sowing late into cold wet seedbeds Consider using a nutritional seed treatment such as manganese +/- a phosphite/amino acidbased product to help improve rooting and plant vigour and help plants to resist disease during establishment.

New one-year sugar beet contract agreed for 2022 Sugar beet growers are better-placed to make their 2022 cropping decisions following British Sugar’s announcement to pay £27/t for the 2022/23 one-year contract, as agreed with NFU Sugar. The one-year contract for 2022 will pay a fixed price of £27/t, and complements an option for existing 2020/21 and 2021/22 multi-year contracted growers which offers the choice to upgrade from £21.18/t to a guaranteed fixed £25/t, subject to committing to an additional contract year. According to British Sugar, the 33% increase in price acknowledges increases in input costs and inflation in alternative crop prices, as well as providing growers with a share of the recent improvements in sugar pricing. Growers within 28 miles of their nearest factory will receive an additional payment per adjusted tonne. Starting at £2/t up to nine miles, the contribution decreases on a linear scale by 10p/t per mile. For example, a grower at 15 miles will receive an additional £1.40/t. That’s a potential income of £28.40/t with tonnage on the 2022 one-year contract, and over £29/t with the average Late Delivery Allowance.

The £12m Virus Yellows Assurance Scheme compensates growers for yield losses due to virus yellows. Industry-wide efforts also continue with advocacy for plant protection products and future breeding techniques. Growers in East Anglia can apply for additional tonnes on the 2022/23 one-year contract, on the higher-priced multi-year upgrades, and on the Futures-linked variable price contract. Farmers in East Anglia interested in growing beet are also welcome to apply for their own contract or discover other growing options on offer. Peter Watson (left), agriculture director at British Sugar, commented: “We are pleased to be able to share the agreed contract prices with growers after a long negotiation. Our aim was always to agree a fair and sustainable price for all and we believe this is what we have achieved. “Together with our Virus Yellows Assurance Scheme, the new local premium and the futures-linked contract, we believe the

contracts offer a competitive package for growers.” Farmers Guide approached Dr Vicky Foster (right), head of BBRO, who said: “We are pleased that NFU Sugar and British Sugar have reached an agreement for the contracts for 2022. There are still some big challenges for the UK sugar beet industry from pests and diseases, and BBRO will continue to invest the levy to focus on finding solutions to help growers meet these challenges. “The increasing environmental awareness of agriculture also raises challenges, in particular around soil health, carbon emissions and alternatives to conventional plant protection products – these are all activities BBRO are heavily involved in, to ensure the UK can maintain a sustainable sugar beet crop in the rotation well into the future.” FG

Herbicide supply issues put pressure on winter bean growers With the key post-emergence herbicide propyzamide expected to be in short supply this autumn due to transport and logistical challenges, late oilseed rape and winter bean growers may have to look to alternative chemistry in the fight against grassweeds. With post-emergence herbicide options now very limited, particularly in winter beans, the most effective alternative option could be to apply a robust dose of pre-emergence residual chemistry such as Centium (clomazone). FMC commercial technical manager Jeff Fieldsend (pictured) says clomazone is very dose-responsive, and when applied at the maximum dose rate of 0.33-litres/ ha can significantly reduce the ability of black-grass and other grassweeds to establish, therefore reducing its ability to compete with the crop at this important early

development. “With current crop prices the financial risks are too high to ignore a pre-emergence residual herbicide if supplies of propyzamide cannot be guaranteed,” he says. “And with carbetamide no longer available to control black-grass in oilseed rape, there are even fewer options in the armoury.” In winter beans, he says the herbicide options are even fewer. Centium, prosulfocarb and pendimethalin offer the only defence against a range of difficult weeds without pre-emergence propyzamide.

“Centium applied post drilling but pre-emergence of the crop at a rate of 0.33-litres/ha can give effective activity of grassweeds, particularly black-grass and wild oats, as well as control of key broadleaved weeds,” he says. “In winter beans, as much residual activity as possible is needed to control black-grass, therefore higher rates of Centium are essential because of the lack of postemergence grassweed options. “The higher pre-emergence rate gives stronger activity and greater persistence against key grassweeds and broadleaved weeds such as cleaver, hedge mustard, chickweed and shepherd's purse.” Winter beans are normally drilled from mid-October onwards and therefore Mr Fieldsend says it is essential that a robust preemergence residual is used to ensure season-long weed control, otherwise the only available herbicide option for a tidy-up in the spring would be bentazone, which has no effect on grassweeds.

Wet soil – harvest damage avoidance and rectification particularly in these late harvested crops. The answer to that is maintaining natural structural integrity whenever possible. Water management in de-structured soils is compromised, they dry faster and wet up quicker. When wet, they are unable to support machinery weight, air content is compromised, and further water movement is halted once damaged. Ploughing down wet, damaged soil merely hides the fact that we have wet, damaged soil. Ploughing up dryer soils may allow crop establishment, but the roots will reach the cold, wet, anaerobic layer ploughed down sooner or later, and it remains a weak link in soil structural strength.

Planning ahead for later harvested crops

For some crops, like maize, sugar beet and field brassica, the risk of wet soil at harvest and the resultant damage is ever present... But should we accept the risk and resign ourselves to rectifying as required, or think about building resilience into soils to better cope with the risk? Hutchinsons technical manager Dick Neale discusses. Regardless of what many of us have been taught over the years regarding moving soil to input air, passage water or encourage root penetration, there is no doubt that understanding how soil functions naturally, significantly questions the wisdom of what we thought we knew. Understanding the wider impacts of our actions allows us to address late harvest issues in more than a reactionary cultivation. The issues to address: • Potentially wet soil conditions with later harvested crops • Heavy machinery in harvesters and trailers on those wet soils • Rutting and severe surface compaction ahead of following crop • Poor drying conditions later in the year.

Later harvesting is the key challenge We have limited options for changing the harvest timing of these crops, so later

SHORT OF STORAGE SPACE?

harvesting in potentially wetter periods remains the key challenge. Harvest output and logistics means the use of large capacity harvesters and trailers will continue. However, field discipline is a key factor that can be influenced – dedicated trailer runs using previous tramlines is an obvious need over random shortest distance trailer field entry and exit, along with use of appropriate low ground pressure tyres, tracks, and offset axles etc. That said, it remains the case that the biggest impact we can have is in building soil resilience to operations we know are at high risk of being applied in wetter conditions. This is where we deviate the most from the perceived norms or needs of soil cultivation. Deeply cultivated soils have had any natural structural strength removed from them. This places them at high risk of structural damage from heavy machinery at any time, but

Planning ahead is vital so that soil strength and resilience is maintained. Disrupting soils to the minimum depth required is of paramount importance; this limits natural structure disruption and the potential for re-compaction. Maintaining aspects of natural soil structure like roots from previous crops, deep working worm populations, porosity and surface protection from residues or cover crops is a major step in building structural resilience in soil and is a key step in reducing risk for late harvested crops. Many late harvested crops are row crops by nature, and this opens the door to utilising strip tillage techniques. In simple terms, this allows for deeper cultivation and seedbed preparation in the planted row but leaves the intervening areas of soil undisturbed. The undisturbed ridges carry the harvesting machinery far better than the disturbed strips allowing for better field access, reduced soil damage and improved water management late in the season. However, it is never a simple overnight change that brings results. While strip tillage can work well and rapidly in light soils, in stronger soils a more planned and gradual transition is required. Then, given the damage, cost and frustration late harvesting can bring, a change of approach is well worth consideration. FG

Miscanthus finance and end-user offtake agreements assist UK decarbonisation

Farmers considering planting the carbon negative crop miscanthus can now benefit from a finance package to cover virtually all upfront costs for crop establishment, as well as new direct, long-term offtake agreements with end-users, with 10–15-year index-linked annual returns. The new opportunity has been launched to help support the growing need to decarbonise the UK economy with bio-based solutions, and if planting of perennial crops such as miscanthus is accelerated quickly, to at least 30,000ha per year by 2035, this

increase could sequester 2 MtCO2e by 2035 and over 6 MtCO2e by 20501. Oxbury Bank is working in partnership with miscanthus specialist, Terravesta, to deliver the new finance package, which is supporting farmers to plant and

establish the crop. “One of the main barriers to entry for miscanthus growing is the upfront cost of planting. Our finance package with Terravesta ensures a quick release of funds to help farmers to grow a sustainable business. The loan structure allows farmers to pay interest only for up to two years while the crop is establishing and then pay back the capital over an extended period of time when the crop is producing an economic return,” says Nick Evans, managing director of Oxbury Bank. “Agriculture is changing, and it’s important that farmers have access to finance and capital for their low carbon initiatives and sustainable growth plans, like miscanthus.” Under the new contract, Terravesta will supply its Performance Hybrids, planting equipment and agronomy throughout the crop’s life, ensuring successful crop establishment by committing to a minimum number of plants emerging under its new planting promise. “Our current rhizome-based variety, Terravesta Athena, delivers

higher yields than the commercially available Miscanthus giganteus, a calorific value increase of 8%, resulting in 180% increase in energy per hectare (megajoules) and significant ash content reduction, all of which benefits the end-user considerably,” explains Alex Robinson, Terravesta’s chief operating officer. “Terravesta Athena generally takes its first harvest in year two and reaches maturity faster than Miscanthus giganteus, and some of our growers are reporting a first harvest of 8t/ha, going onto a mature yield of between 10–17t/ha depending on the soil type. “The beauty of this new package is that growers have a direct contract with renewable energy power plants, which enables Terravesta to provide a finance package and allows us to focus on crop establishment in the UK at a much greater scale to support our net zero targets,” adds Mr Robinson.

Are you ready? Preparing farmers for the future What will your farm look like in five, 10 or even 30 years, and what actions can you take now to create that new future? That was the question posed to Hampshire farmer Andy Bason (pictured above) on a tour of Newhouse Farm at Alresford at the end of September. Mr Bason is halfway through the inaugural Resilient & Ready programme – an immersive threeyear initiative from crop protection and seed company Corteva Agriscience. Delivered by LEAF, he is at the helm of one of four farm businesses which are all on the same journey. Around 40 people joined the farm tour, which looked at some key changes Mr Bason is making with the help of his Newhouse team and experts provided through the programme. The first stop was at a soil pit, and Ian Robertson from Sustainable Soil Management (pictured below)

showed the group what soil structures existed on the farm. Mr Robertson’s role is to carry out detailed soil analysis, which enables farms to understand why their land

performs as it does before starting a conversation about nutrition, rotation and cultivations. “I want to understand both the limitations and benefits of the individual farm’s organic matter in the soil and come up with bespoke solutions,” Mr Robertson said. For Newhouse Farm, that has meant having discussions about how to ensure that every nutrient applied on the farm is being utilised as best as it can.

Patience is key Mr Robertson commented: “Patience is key. It is tempting to chase targets, but it’s important to slow down, take stock and consider why an area on the farm doesn’t perform well before taking actions to enhance productivity. Making a three-, four-, or even six-year plan is really important – you may deviate along the way, but at least we know where we’re headed. “It’s a really exciting time in farming at the moment when we think about how we can make improvements to the environment, but these changes must be based in really simple on-farm practical actions. “Ultimately, it’s about good farming – if you farm well, you will have more carbon in your soil.” Another sustainable farming business consultant who spoke at the event was Andy Guy, who has been working with Andy Bason’s team since last year. He said: “When I got involved, Andy had some great ideas on how to

improve the environment on his farm so my role has been to help him to document those ideas into a plan with short, medium and long-term goals. It’s an integrated farm management process, with biodiversity, crop rotation and variety choices all interacting with each other and it’s my job to make sure these elements intertwine. “My approach can be likened to the three-legged milking stool, encompassing three standards of sustainability: Environmental, social and financial. Every business has a different balance, but creating a plan absolutely helps farmers get the greatest benefit.”

Sustaining diversity and profitability Farming over 1,000ha of owned and contracted land, the vision at Newhouse is to sustain its diversity and profitability while looking out for opportunities to improve the landscape and engage the public. The farm is owned by Ian and Victoria Cammack and run by Mr Bason, with operators Matt Johnson and Sam Ward. Mr Bason is keen to see what agroforestry can deliver to the farm, and will shortly be planting his first trees in strips across one of his arable fields. This was the second stop on the tour of the farm and is where Mr Bason hopes to see a mediumterm objective met. His ambition is to see what benefits trees can bring to the field while utilising the fruit they produce to sell products such as sauces and jams from the farm. This will augment the pork and

lamb box sales the farm has already established, as well a deal to provide milling wheat to a local National Trust mill. Further public engagement will be delivered this autumn by a newlyestablished pumpkin patch, where the local community will be invited to a Halloween picking event.

Enhancing natural assets The final stop on the farm tour was to a stubble field which had just been harvested for the final time. This winter, Mr Bason will be deer fencing the parcel of land, before planting trees to establish a new woodland. Kirsty Brannan, farm conservation and woodland adviser at Oakbank, said: “I’ve been working with Andy as he prepares to create a wildlife woodland with a mix of habitats. Having undertaken an audit of Andy’s natural assets, we are now looking at what important habitats and species are already recorded on the site and coming up with ideas for how those assets could be enhanced. “Farmers are time-stretched, so I hope I am helping farmers like Andy learn to read the land to make important decisions about where the opportunities to make enhancements are. I’m really pleased Andy is taking forward some of the ideas we spoke about last year. I think the real strength of Resilient & Ready is that Andy has been able to draw on so many different people and pools of expertise to get a really rounded view. “It’s a really good time to understand what environmental assets you have on farm and to start continued over…

making a wish list of work you would like to do that is waiting for the right support. New funding is emerging all the time, so it’s good to have plans in place to make the most of new opportunities.”

Inspiring farm businesses Corteva opened the Resilient & Ready programme in 2019, identifying that it could play a leading role in inspiring farm businesses to rise to the challenges of the future. Giles Field-Rayner, UK business development manager at Corteva

Agriscience, said: “With the phasing out of direct farm support over the next six years, and a shift in government policy driving a greater focus on the environment, it’s clear UK and Irish farms are going to have to change and evolve. “What that means will be different for each farm, and with so much of the policy detail still to come, most businesses are still assessing options. “What the Resilient & Ready programme aims to do is to inspire those in agriculture to look broadly at where they are and where they want to be. “Andy is a great example of someone who is embracing change – assessing the resilience of his soils, trialling agroforestry and examining habitat improvements are just three steps he’s taking, but the farm is open minded and looking for opportunities.” Trialling new innovations in seed and crop protection is one element of the Resilient & Ready programme. All the farms have used pipeline biological products from Corteva, and a new product designed to increase nitrogen use efficiency. Some have grown Pioneer’s new hybrid oilseed rape PT303 Protector Sclerotinia, and applied Univoq –

Corteva’s newly-launched cereal fungicide which provides robust protection against Septoria and rust. Attendees also heard from Nick Down – another Resilient & Ready farmer from the Yattendon Estate in Berkshire. Nick has implemented significant

changes to his business since being selected for the programme, including taking farmland out of food production and into environmental stewardship, testing new product innovations, engaging with wildlife groups to assess the estate’s diversity and reviewing the business’ machinery. FG

About Andy Bason and Newhouse Farm Sparsholt College graduate Mr Bason has been the manager at Newhouse Farm for 10 years. The 800ha estate has 600ha put to arable cropping, which has been min-till cultivated for two decades. Mr Bason uses variable rate technology for fertiliser, nitrogen and seed with parts of the farm set aside for trials to test new techniques in crop management. Elsewhere, there is 70ha of woodland, a small sheep flock and a pig herd. In 2021, he also won a tender to contract farm a neighbouring business and has taken on another 400ha as a result, which nearly doubles the total land area he manages. Mr Bason is keen on communication as a former AHDB Monitor Farm and LEAF Open Farm Sunday host. He said: “I really enjoy the interaction with farmers and the public and that’s part of the reason why I applied for the Resilient & Ready programme – to grow that engagement. “We host a number of visitors on the farm, and the science and technology we use blows them away. I’m really keen to get away from the stereotypes and be proud to show people what we do. “I also want to know more about the wildlife and biodiversity on the farm. I want to be able to measure it and improve the habitats and environment while understanding what the right thing is to do for the future. “There is uncertainty around farming, but I am an optimistic person and view this as an exciting time. Let’s crack on and make the most of the opportunities out there to put our farms in a great place for the next generation.”

Why venture into agroforesty? Combining agriculture and forestry could be just what your farm needs to improve your soil and increase biodiversity. with tramlines allowing tractors to pass through without damaging trunks and branches. Some clearing of trees in an already established woodland may well need to take place in order to create the ground space required. Arable crops and trees can be grown alongside each other, as tree roots reach so much deeper, meaning you can operate within a diverse multi-level system rather than a monoculture. Another benefit of agroforestry is that trees can be a source of income – both in terms of the wood they offer, and also by providing an alternative crop in the case of fruit trees and nuts

experienced forestry specialist, these issues can be overcome. Greenfields is the brain child of its founder and director Neil Perks, who decided to start his own business in 2006. Mr Perks has vast experience working in the countryside management industry. He started work at the age of 12 years as a farm labourer and went on to study at Agricultural College after leaving school. He then worked his way up through farm maintenance and into management before deciding to go it alone. In 2007, James Maplethorpe joined the company as a director, having previously worked with Mr Perks for many years and bringing with him great knowledge and experience. Services offered by Greenfields include tree and woodland planting, hedge planting and maintenance, together with vegetation clearance. The company is also involved in sustainable woodland management, preserving the balance of woodland species and habitat. The management of young woodlands involves planting and maintaining new woodland areas to include guard maintenance, weed control, fertilisation, formative pruning, selective thinning and respacing.

There are many different types of agroforestry, ranging from hedgerows and buffer strips to silvo-pastoral and silvo-arable agroforestry. In silvo-pastoral agroforestry, animals are grazed under trees, which increases soil health as the animals enrich the soil, while the woodland provides a source of fodder and also creates a natural shelter. Tree roots grow deep into the ground, releasing carbon (thereby assisting in reaching the carbon net zero target) and help to prevent soil erosion from the elements. In silvo-arable forestry, rows of crops are grown beneath the trees,

such as chestnuts, which can be a fallback if other more traditional crops fail. As well as the aforementioned benefits, trees encourage and house natural predators to many crop pests, therefore assisting in organic production or simply reducing the amount of costly pesticide inputs required on a non-organic farm. However, despite the benefits, agroforestry has not been embraced fully on UK farms – likely due to lack of knowledge and confidence, as well as the high number of short-term farm tenancies, meaning farmers are less inclined to make long-term investments. According to Sarah Wake of Greenfields Countryside Ltd, agroforestry is growing as farmers are being encouraged to rewild and restore areas to improve habitat for wildlife. “We can advise farmers on how to manage woodland and hedgerows, together with planting new ones. We have planted thousands of trees and metres of hedgerow over the last few years, as more restoration grants have become available for farmers,” she explained. Ms Wake reckons the most common hurdles are ground conditions and weather, but by working with a reputable and

Specialist rural division transfers to insurance broker The rural division of the well-respected RK Harrison brand has now transferred into A-Plan Insurance, to form A-Plan Rural. RK Harrison has been providing insurance to the agricultural and rural community, and has been synonymous with quality, service and competitive premiums for more than 40 years. It has also been the trusted partner and broker for the Country Land and Business Association (CLA)

for over 16 years. A-Plan Insurance, which was founded in 1963 and is now part of the international insurance group Howden, is delighted to be involved with the rural market, and will invest in and build on the expertise that the team from RK Harrison bring

with them. A-Plan has a number of specialist rural insurance centres with a focus on bringing local insurance experts closer to farmers, landowners and country estates. A-Plan Rural clients will have access to these rural insurance hubs providing them with local specialist expertise, as well as more than 100 regional A-Plan branches across the UK. A-Plan Rural has already recruited additional specialists to add to the existing RK Harrison team that has joined A-Plan, and is looking to add to the growing team as it continues to invest in this important market. The combined team is led by Esther Kane (pictured), head of rural, who has worked in the rural insurance sector for more than 16 years. Esther commented: “The new relationship is good news for rural clients because it gives them greater choice, both in terms of products available and how they want to access advice. “Many of our clients at RK Harrison have been with us for a long time and the message to them is that nothing changes but the name – they are still dealing with the same familiar people. “However, they have the added benefit that our Farm and Estate

experts will now be closer, giving our clients more choice in how they want to interact with us, either in person, by phone or digitally. This is so important given the workload of farmers who are often time poor. “Rural businesses will also have access to physical branches, a greater range of products available and the historic RK Harrison expertise.” Richard Easterbrook, director of commercial and rural insurance at A-Plan Group, says the business is committed to building a growing presence in rural communities. “We have a huge appetite to grow our physical presence and product offering through the development of specialist rural hubs. “Bringing A-Plan and RK Harrison together will also lead to greater insurer volume and improved market influence for agriculture and private client lines.” The announcement comes at a time when towns and villages across the country, and in particular in rural areas, are feeling the pain of successive lockdowns. So, news that A-Plan aims to buck the trend by opening centres as well as recruit people from the local area is an additional boost for rural communities. FG

Dale Drills’ range of No Till Eco Drills offer users the opportunity to establish crops in an economically efficient way whilst ensuring healthier, more resilient soils, capable of growing higher yielding crops. Low disturbance tines keep horsepower requirement to a minimum of just 20hp/m (a 6m Eco M can comfortably be pulled with a 150hp tractor), reducing fuel consumption whilst also limiting the weight of machinery on the soil and preventing unnecessary compaction. Independent drilling assemblies follow contours accurately, ensuring even depth control across the width of the drill, giving rise to a crop which emerges evenly. This feature also reduces the need for additional cultivation passes in order to level seedbeds, saving time and money. An adjustable

hydraulic pressure to drilling assemblies allows users to drill into any seedbeds, from firmer direct seedbeds to looser min till and even into conventional plough-based seedbeds, reducing the need for multiple drills – again saving time and money. An adjustable row width from 12.5–25cm (5–10in) offers users the versatility to plant crops at the optimum spacing for best yield, whilst the ability to place fertiliser and other products alongside seed optimises establishment.

with steel and aluminium booms extending from 18–40m, including twin-fold aluminium HAS and steel HSS structures from 24–30m. Wider options use a three-part folding steel boom from 32–40m. Boom performance comes from a suspended parallelogram rear frame, and working height is managed by Boom Guide ultrasonic ride height control systems. Boom Guide Pro Active uses three levelling sensors on the central boom section, allowing faster reaction to ground terrain changes. Wider booms can be equipped with five ultrasonic sensors, operating with two outer sensors at the wider working width, reverting to one outer sensor when operating at 24m. All iXtrack models are Isobus-compatible. Kverneland’s iXspray hardware and software operators can take advantage of intuitive touchscreens with smart electronics to manage individual nozzle control or boom sections, boom line recirculation, and one-touch boom, spray line and tank cleaning processes.

Trials suggest remarkable performance and cost benefits due to biological treatments Significant 2.5t/ha yield increases have been recorded, with huge returns on investment possible by including AminoA biostimulants in autumn foliar treatments. Huge returns on investment and significant yield results have been recorded in recent independent trials on biological seed treatments and biostimulants. As we head into the key autumn foliar treatment period for cereal crops, now is the time to include biostimulant applications within tank mixes to help achieve performance results demonstrated in the independent trials.

NIAB winter wheat trials undertaken at Coates, Gloucestershire, forming part of UK bio-technology company AminoA’s biostimulant registration dossier, have revealed further evidence of both the performance and costs benefits of the interaction of the natural biostimulant and nutrient source AminoA FLO with fungicides. The untreated plot on the trials

of winter wheat (variety Crusoe) showed a yield of 11.31t/ha, while two separate fungicide programmes saw an increased yield of 12.42t/ha and 13t/ha, at an input cost of £48.50 and £80/ha respectively. “The third fungicide programme, at a cost of just £28 per ha, plus 3 x 2-litres of AminoA FLO resulted in a massive yield of 15.5t/ha. The trials were on the same site as RL trials in Cirencester, where treated Crusoe yielded 9.54t/ha and the untreated 8.12t/ha,” explains AminoA managing director Richard Phillips.

“To put this result into perspective the best RL treated yield for Crusoe this year was in Broughton, Hampshire at 13.52t/ha, also producing the highest untreated yield of 10.93t/ha. This adds further evidence to the return on investment and performance benefits of including AminoA FLO, or AminoA GRO, suitable for use in organic systems, within your tank mix during autumn applications,” he adds. These NIAB trial results follow on from Scottish Agronomy trials on the biological seed treatment AminoA STAART on spring barley. Treated Laureate spring barley trials saw treated replicated plots average 10.02t/ha from a seed treatment alone. “Individual plots yielded over 10.45t/ha which was the world spring barley record yield in 2014! Recent trials have also shown the STAART seed treatment programme costs £8/ha for a return of approximately £100,” adds Mr Phillips. Like other products within the AminoA range, FLO, GRO and STAART are suitable for use with all crops. Meet the AminoA team at the CropTec Show 2021, on 24–25th November. FG

Weighing software offers flexibility and security The weighing process and data capture can be carried out manually or unmanned using the driver remote FOB button system, which allows the field, crop, store and any other required data to be saved automatically and instantly at the time of weighing, at the press of a button. Advances in technology allow any device on the network – be it mobile phone, tablet or computer – to connect and carry out a weighing or use the Weighbus software as if they were in the weighbridge office. The Weighbus system allows flexibility in connectivity and reporting whilst maintaining security. All access and operations are controlled via user logins – users are assigned to user groups which can have all permissions defined by the management. Visit Griffith Elder in Hall 2, stand 2.2 at the CropTec show. FG

Identifying customer needs is the key to success Garford Farm Machinery Ltd manufactures a range of robotic mechanical weed control products, including Robocrop Precision Guided Inter-Row Hoes, In-Row Weeders, Baby Leaf Hoes, Guided Hooded Sprayers, Spot Sprayers and Side Shifts. The family-owned and run business was established in 1986 and continues to offer advanced technology to progressive farmers. As well as providing for its UK customer base, Garford Farm Machinery products are sold all over the world. The company prides itself on listening to the grower and identifying their needs; then, through the custom-build manufacturing facility, provides unique equipment, specific to each customer’s requirements. Garford says it is recognised as a world leader for its range of products, which use video cameras and image analysis

technology to locate crop position and then guide the tractor-mounted equipment quickly and accurately. Garford hoes have been specially designed to cope with extreme speeds, with most hoes featuring the unique Garford ‘Pressure Down’ system – special pressure rams keep the soil-engaging components ‘in work’ to improve penetration in hard conditions whilst also adding balanced downward pressure through every wheel unit on the hoe – this prevents bounce and chatter when working at high speed. Becoming an increasingly popular requirement for customers is the Garford ‘Tine Raiser’. Designed for section control in fields with tight headlands or varied shaped fields to prevent hoeing overlap, this is operated manually or in conjunction with the tractor’s Isobus system. Visit Garford at CropTec on stand 1.78. FG

A new software range from weighing equipment manufacturer Griffith Elder allows users to configure operation, data collection and reporting exactly as they require it, among other benefits. The Weighbus range allows weighbridge ticket types to be created to cover different aspects of agricultural or other business operations. Configuration is made to collect only the exact data required for that part of the business; it’s even possible for more than one business to operate over the same weighbridge, printing their own ticket(s). Data requirements can be set to be optional or demanded to ensure the weighing operation cannot be completed without recording the data that is needed by management.

View fertiliser spreader ranges at CropTec 2021 The product range of fertiliser spreaders from Lemken have been performing well in the UK and Ireland. With three ranges to offer, Spica, Tauri and Polaris come with tank volumes from 900–4,000 litres and a broad range of control options, from a basic version through to 100% Isobus. The new fertiliser spreaders meet the most stringent requirements regarding precision of application and economy. Comfortable setting options guarantee fertiliser is applied precisely and economically, comments Lemken UK’s general manager Paul Creasy. Lemken fertiliser spreaders are therefore high-quality products which optimally complement the company’s existing product portfolio in tillage, sowing and crop care.

The entry level model Spica with tank volumes from 900–2,100 litres and working widths of up to 24m, makes the Spica ideal for smaller growers. The mid-range Tauri offers a large loading volume of up to 3,000 litres and delivers higher fertilising efficacy through large working widths of up to 36m. Equipment such as the weighing system, width section control and Isobus preparation make the Tauri 12 not only highly precise but also very comfortable to operate. The range-topping Polaris machines offer working widths of up to 50m and tank volumes of up to 4,000 litres, as well as sophisticated technology such as the Epsilon spreader vane system or the GPSsupported Econov section control system. FG

Recent winters show rapid payback in drainage investment The recent consecutive wet winters coupled with rising costs and reducing BPS payments have concentrated the minds of many growers around the UK about the need to address wet and poor performing areas of land. Drainage investment has, for many, been the difference between getting autumn sown crops drilled or not. Tim Sisson, managing director of land drainage contractor William Morfoot Ltd, advises: “Drainage investment is a long-term venture offering payback both immediately and for many years ahead. The capital outlay of any drainage investment therefore has to be considered over the lifetime of the scheme – which is likely to be a minimum of 20–25 years. “With commodity prices being high and a reduction in supply in some crops because of these

difficult weather events, we have found that many of our clients have seen noteworthy payback on drainage investment in the previous two years. This is spurring them on to invest further in drainage on their farms as they future proof their business [...]. Furthermore, soil health benefits and improved effectiveness against black-grass control means that drainage investment is an obvious choice for many growers to be seriously considering.” William Morfoot Ltd delivers comprehensive land drainage schemes including all design work and installation work to farm businesses across the UK. Works include design and surveying, land drain installation, ditch maintenance/improvement and wider drainage infrastructure improvements. FG

Age-old problem, modern solution The groundbreaking Mudcontrol slab has revolutionised mud control in the UK, and is now sold in over 40 countries worldwide – with five-star reviews across the board, the company claims. Mudcontrol was established in the UK by René and Kerry in 2017. Kerry has been devoted to looking after the UK side of the business since the company’s inception and René oversees operations both in the UK and Belgium, where he also has Mudcontrol BE, run by Tim and Canét. Mudcontrol supplies high quality, heavy duty 100% recycled plastic products. Determined to provide its solution for all sized operations, Mudcontrol maintains that no order is too big or too small. The company also supplies recycled plastic fencing and associated products, giving a wide range of top-quality goods to all its clients. According to James Trembecki, UK sales: “Our fencing products are strong and reliable; they will not rot and are not palatable, so livestock usually leave them alone. They won’t need painting or treating, you simply install them and never worry about maintenance. They can be nailed, stapled, screwed into, sawn and installed (by machine or by hand) in the same way a wooden post can without the maintenance required by a wooden equivalent. “Our products are used to arrest mud for various livestock and commercial purposes; if you need instant, porous, removable, reusable hardstanding for anything from a pygmy goat to a bull elephant – we can help. “You can drive vehicles and machinery of up to 60t over the slabs, plus they are easy to install and as permanent or temporary as you need – a perfect alternative to concrete, without burying your investment.” Showcasing its wealth of expertise as an industry-leading company, the Mudcontrol commitment to excellence and devotion to customer service, is paramount. Maintaining continuous five-star reviews, the company reckons its products are proven to do exactly what they claim, citing countless testimonials and reviews. “Our social media community is very active, with customers past and present continuing to send us pictures and stories of their Mudcontrol experiences, and a huge proportion of our business is repeat custom. Our business continues to grow year-on-year – our biggest problem is keeping up with demand. We sold over nine acres of Mudcontrol slabs alone last year and we are expecting sales to double

again this year,” continued James. Undoubtedly, the future looks bright for Mudcontrol. With expansion and meeting its ever-growing customer demands, the company is looking to continue growing its industry presence. “We plan to continue our growth in line with our customers’ demands and we will continue our commitment to excellent customer service and fast supply,” James concluded.

One-stop-shop for baler needs PFC Agri Solutions offers moisture sensors, wet bale management tools and application equipment to suit baler operator needs. Precision and real-world results are at the core of the equipment design, the company says. The initial demand from any baler operator is usually a precision moisture sensor. PFC reckons this can be achieved using the Harvest Tec twin star wheel system for square balers or twin disc for round balers. The system is always built around precision, with PFC claiming a market-leading +/-1% accuracy, and readings up to 70% on the large

square. The H2O sensor uses Apple (iOS) or Android smart devices to operate via the H2O app from the relevant stores. This system provides a real time moisture reading with the average for the previous bale. Optional wet bale marker is a plugand-go system to manage bales with excessive moisture. The Pro system adds additional features such as an integrated automatic applicator, job records and baler performance data. The wet bale marker allows the

Harvest Tec 7 series

operator to mark with a food grade colour the bales which have moisture that exceeds the desired limit. By highlighting these bales, they can easily be identified for separation in storage. Two main benefits arise from this, firstly quality bales are not spoilt by high moisture bales, and secondly, risk of self-combustion is significantly reduced. Application equipment enters the market with the semi-automatic system. Offering as standard a 200-litre tank and digital control system, this system can be upgraded to baler specific brackets and tanks to aid installation. This PFC option is controlled by setting the bale weight and time which generates the baling speed. The operator then selects the litres per tonne required. This system will apply this rate until it is adjusted by the operator. The second, more advanced, offering is the Harvest Tec fully automatic system which has a built-in moisture sensor and baler specific installation parts as standard. This system will automatically adjust the application as required to match the baler’s performance and moisture level. Baler’s Choice preservative offers the hay and straw producer the benefit of baling for longer days

New cabbage harvester on display at innovation event

Landowners approached by developers: Option or Promotion Agreement? Nick Harper FAAV MRICS, managing director of Hawkspur, which specialises in Option and Promotion Agreements for landowners, offers his advice. Developers’ appetite for land is undiminished. Typically, developers offer landowners an Option or Promotion Agreement to promote their land. Beware of the following: • How long is the agreement? Usually between 3–15 years. Short is best. • Is there an upfront payment? Developers will offer a premium to landowners which the landowner will keep – paid at the outset and for any extension. • Who will pay for all planning costs? Developers should pay such costs (which are high) – and the landowner’s agent and legal fees in preparing the agreement. • Maximising land values The developer should be obliged to maximise the residential value.

•

Minimum housing densities or land values are recommended. At what value will the land be sold? Option Agreements – a developer will buy the land, discounting the value to give the developer a profit and leaving the landowner between 80–90% of the agreed value. Promotion Agreements – the land is sold on the open market and the promoter receives a percentage of the proceeds, leaving the landowner between 80–90% of proceeds. The benefit is that both parties’ interests are aligned – to maximise the price which will be shared. So does it matter if it’s an option or promotion agreement? In a word, yes. Land sold via an option cannot be exposed to competitive bids from rival developers. Promotion agreements allow open market exposure when the land is sold and give reassurance that the best price has been secured. FG

As well as seeing the latest varieties and new developments in agritech, visitors to Syngenta’s Fields of Innovation were the first to see the latest Asa-Lift cabbage harvester in the UK. Grimme UK saw the event as the perfect opportunity to showcase the new MC-1010 C. The new cabbage harvester has an improved, steeper in-take and can feature either an elevator or fill boxes directly. Grimme is offering the MC1010C in three different options: tractor-mounted, trailed and selfpropelled. There is also the option of a single- or two-row version. A tractor-mounted, single-row model was the version on show at Fields of Innovation.

“The new Asa-Lift Cabbage Harvester is a significant development within our range of vegetable harvesters,” says Rob Wilkinson, vegetable product specialist at Grimme UK. “With several mounting options and a redesigned in-take, the MC-1010 C is the most gentle harvester we have ever made, and the refinements also mean it is one of the quickest, too.” Asa-Lift is a subsidiary of Grimme that was founded in 1936 and acquired by Grimme in 2013 with a 70% stake. In July 2020, Grimme went on to acquire 100% of the company, and since then has had major focus on developing mechanical solutions for labourintensive crops like cabbages. FG

The official opening of Crawfords’ new Ropley, Hampshire depot in late September was celebrated by suppliers, as well as new and existing customers.

Enthusiastic welcome for new Hampshire depot An open day and working demonstration of tractors and implements marked the opening of a new Hampshire depot by an expanding Agco main dealer. David Williams was there. RW Crawford Ltd celebrated the opening of its fourth depot, at Ropley near Winchester, in late September. The 7,500ft2 site is beside the main A31, and easily accessed for customers throughout Crawfords’ Hampshire trading area east of the M3. The premises includes a modern workshop with four large service bays providing plenty of space for the biggest tractors and combines in Crawfords’ Valtra and Fendt ranges. There is a prominent roadside machinery display area, a dedicated stores and parts counter, and sales and administration offices, all within one building.

Building relationships Since Crawfords took on the Sussex and Hampshire trading area for Agco in 2019, customers in both counties have been served from the

Dry weather provided an opportunity to test-drive the latest Fendt and Valtra tractors and to try cultivators and drills from Vaderstad and Amazone.

dealer’s Billingshurst, West Sussex depot. “The arrangement worked well for us and for our customers, but we always intended on opening an additional depot further west to increase convenience for farmers and contractors in Hampshire,” explained managing director Wes Crawford. “The new site is ideal. Modern, spacious buildings provide a great working environment for our sales and service teams and will accommodate the largest machinery, and there is space for further expansion in future. “We have a team of experienced staff already based at the site and are in the process of recruiting more. We offer a great range of brands and will continue to invest in specialist equipment and staff training to help users get the most from their machinery.”

Premium brands As well as representing Fendt and Valtra, Crawfords offers a wide range of products from premium brands to suit farms and contracting operations across its trading area. These include Vaderstad, Manitou, Amazone, Spearhead, Ktwo, Isuzu, Can-Am, Cherry Products and Quicke loaders, and there is also a wide selection of sundries and tools.

Great feedback Dry weather allowed visitors to try out many products in the field, including Fendt tracked and wheeled tractors and sprayers, Valtra tractors, and Vaderstad and Amazone cultivators and drills. This proved popular, and dealer

and manufacturer representatives were kept busy explaining features and benefits of the machines throughout the day. A demonstration by Trelleborg highlighted the benefits of equipping tractors with suitable tyres running at optimum pressures for the load and task, while Michelin had an indoor display of its latest tyres. “We were delighted that so many new and existing customers attended the event, and we received a lot of positive feedback regarding our investment in the area. The addition of our Ropley depot is an excellent step in showing our commitment to the local farming community, allowing us to continue providing excellent customer service,” confirmed Wes. FG

First with FendtONE The first Fendt 500 Vario-series tractor equipped with the latest FendtONE cab and controls to arrive in the UK was displayed. Fendt retail manager for the south of England, Jason Hoare, explained that since the FendtONE operating concept was first shown at Agritechnica 2019 on the 300- and 700-series tractors, it has now been added to the 200, 500, 900 and 1000 Vario series too. “It’s a clever system which makes it easier to combine onboard and offboard task planning and monitoring and features userfriendly controls which are common across the line-up offering extra convenience for users.” Pictured with the FendtONE-equipped 516 Vario are Fendt product specialist Peter Henson (on the left), and Jason.

Machinery Farmer praises brand “In the past, we always wanted to run a Fendt tractor while using other brands, and since we bought our first Fendt 312 Vario in 2016, our experience has confirmed that nothing comes close,” said Russell Broadbridge of D&M Broadbridge, based at West Wittering in West Sussex. Russell recently upgraded the tractor for the latest model. “We tried another brand on demonstration but there was no comparison,” he stressed. “We use it for mowing, hedgecutting, cultivations and towing and the Vario transmission is brilliant, especially for hedgecutting where it makes the job so quick and easy.” A Manitou 741 PS telehandler is also operated. “Previously we had a Manitou 840, but that was bigger than we needed so we opted for the 741 instead. It’s just a year old and handy around our site. We used other handler brands in the past before changing to Manitou, but these machines are far superior.” Russell said the service from Crawfords is very good. “We get on well with the Billingshurst depot and knew many team members when they were with the previous Fendt dealer for the area. Our area sales manager, David Murray is always helpful, and the parts specialists are excellent too.” Russell is pictured on the left with Crawfords business development manager based at Ropley, James Freemantle.

Optimising pressures A demonstration highlighting benefits of lower tyre inflation pressures available through using VF and IF tyres by the Trelleborg team proved popular. “Carrying the same 7,750kg load per tyre at 65kph on the road, the VF tyre can operate at only 1.6Bar while the IF tyre should be inflated to 2.4Bar and there is no recommendation for a standard radial tyre to carry that load at that speed at all,” stressed Trelleborg Wheel Systems marketing manager, Jon Hewitt. “Looking at the tread marks made by the Fendt tractor in our demonstration area, it was clear to see the soil consolidation caused by a tyre inflated to a higher pressure, compared to the mark from the tyre on the other side at the recommended lower pressure and which had a much larger ground contact area where the soil texture remained crumbly – offering better conditions for plant root growth.” Above (l-r) Jon is pictured with sales director Rich Allen and agricultural field manager Tom Godwin.

Attractive brands Local farmer Charlie Cheyney was at the open day with other members of his family. Trading as MR & J Cheyney and based at Cheriton near the new Crawfords depot, the farm has a 500-head milking herd and grows arable crops along with grass and maize. “We didn’t know Crawfords before, but we already run Fendt tractors and use Amazone machinery and the new depot’s location is very convenient. “The dealer has other brands which appeal too, and we were keen to attend the open day – to find out about the latest machinery displayed and to meet the team.”

Handler choice A wide selection of Manitou MLT telehandlers and MLA articulated loaders was on show. The MLA articulated loaders are extremely versatile and appeal to arable and livestock farms,” explained Crawfords’ Ashford depot area sales manager and Fendt brand manager Carl Goff, who was helping out at the open day. Pivot steering is especially well-suited to operating in confined areas, but we have found that whether a customer chooses an articulated loader or a telehandler is as much down to personal preference as the application. “The MLT 737 PS+ remains our ‘bread and butter’ model across our whole trading area as it is easy to use, solidly built and economical. All Manitou loaders come with telematics through Manitou’s Connected Machine app, and that is seen as a big advantage allowing owners and managers to check the operating status and service requirements.” Manitou area sales manager, Colin D’arcy-Burt, said the new Ropley depot is in a great location. “Historically, Hampshire has been a strong sales area for our brand, and existing customers remained loyal while being looked after well by the Billingshurst depot team. The new site at Ropley will make it easier for users to call in for parts and to view new machines which will be a big advantage. We took Crawfords on as the dealer is seen as a specialist with key brands which it looks after properly. The level of back-up that the team provides is a big factor in its ability to sell machines.” Pictured (l-r) are Colin, Carl, and area service manager Jason Davis.

Promoting drill’s versatility The Vaderstad team demonstrated the Rapid drill’s ability to drill direct into stubble. With the front crossboard removed and three rows of coulters instead of the usual two, there was extra space for trash to flow. “It’s very versatile,” said marketing manager Andy Gamble. “If conditions are dry; the discs can be lowered to create a tilth, and it can be used as a min-till drill, or on ploughed land or for direct-drilling where conditions are suitable.” The latest Carrier XL with 510mm CrossCutter discs was also working. The 510mm discs have been specially designed to ensure cultivation across the full working width – even at ultra-shallow depths of 3–5cm. Rear wheels are an additional benefit of the Carrier XL and can be lowered to raise the discs clear of the ground while the cultivator is reversed into field corners.

New franchise Ktwo products displayed included a Duo 900 manure spreader, a Curve 1600 trailer, a Bio 1600 disc spreader and a Roadeo Compact and Push 20t ejector trailer. “Crawfords was appointed as a Ktwo dealer in June this year across all four depots,” commented managing director Robbie Polson who is pictured at the open day with marketing manager Zoe Chamberlain. “The dealer’s reputation for great customer support and back-up and the friendly team were all big attractions for us. Spreaders and trailers will be stocked allowing customers to view them easily and for quick delivery. “We didn’t have an appointed distributor in this area previously and believe that being able to purchase the products from such a professional dealer will appeal to farmers and contractors.”

Wide, low-disturbance drill Amazone demonstrated the Condor and Cayena drills and the Catros compact disc cultivator. “The Condor direct drill created a lot of interest during the open day,” explained area sales manager Rupert Batho, who is pictured with the 12m drill. “It has a lot of appeal as growers try to reduce their future establishment costs to protect margins. Tine coulters are suitable for a range of working conditions, and the wide working width provides high productivity even at slower travel speeds for reduced soil disturbance. We also have a 15m version available and there is interest in both sizes,” he confirmed. Rupert is pictured (above right) with national sales manager Matt Smith.

Strong proposition “The new depot is in an ideal location to look after the needs of Valtra customers in Hampshire, and it’s the next step in Crawfords’ growth, commented business manager key accounts and Ireland, Andy Miller. “The dealer has a selection of excellent franchises to complement its tractor offering, and the whole package is an extremely strong proposition.” Andy is pictured (on the left) with Valtra sales retail support manager Dan Sharood (middle) and Wes Crawford.

Handy tools

Popular pick-ups Mat Commons is Crawfords’ Isuzu specialist looking after the brand for West Sussex, and was supporting the event with a selection of used D-Max pick-ups from the Billingshurst depot. “Although Crawfords had the franchise in Essex and Kent previously, the appointment as the dealer for the southern area was more recent,” he explained. “Customer feedback has been very positive, and the Isuzu has a strong following as it is a real quality product which comes in a range of specifications for work or pleasure. It’s a joy to drive and incredibly reliable. For farmers and contractors it ticks all the boxes, and with a five-year, 125,000mile warranty there is plenty of reassurance for those moving from other brands. Since the new range of D-Max pick-ups was launched recently there has been a lot of interest and we are gaining many conquest sales.”

Sales and operations manager for the new Ropley depot, Alan Haines, is pictured (left) with Wes Crawford. “This new depot gives us the ideal opportunity to build on the relationships we have formed with customers while operating from Billingshurst,” Alan explained. “Our belief is that building a successful business is all about the customer and looking after them locally. The previous Agco dealer for the area did a great job and has given us an excellent foundation to build on, and we know that, with a host of complementary premium brands too, we have a lot to offer.”

The Draper display attracted a lot of interest, and especially special offers available on the day, according to Draper area sales manager Darryl Cullen who looks after the depots at Ropley and Billingshurst. “The most popular tool was an endoscope, which connects to a smartphone using Bluetooth and allows users to view and record images of the insides of engines and other components,” he explained. “At only £28.96, it’s a very useful tool which can save a lot of time diagnosing faults. We had a very busy day and there was lots of interest from customers keen to view and purchase our latest products.”

Crawfords team members from all four depots were at the open day welcoming customers and helping deal with enquiries. They are pictured with a Fendt Ideal combine – one of several sold this year by Crawfords following a successful harvest demonstration campaign.

Intensive farming operation requires high output machinery Farming over 30 different types of crops across some 4,800 acres of land, Andrew Williams, farm manager of Home Farm Nacton Ltd, Suffolk, relies on top quality machinery to make the process more efficient. “It pulverises whatever we throw at it and it spreads it very evenly without producing clumps of material. The finish from the Cyclone encourages a faster regrowth. We can use the Cyclone for other maintenance applications throughout the farm from general field and woodland management to field corners and margins – it really is a versatile and trouble-free machine.” Andrew further explains:

“Maintenance is very simple, just a regular greasing. The blades don’t seem to need sharpening anywhere near as much as the flail mower and yet it produces a much better job.

“The Cyclone helps us to maintain our goal of farming to the highest professional standard, maximising yields whilst maintaining, developing and enhancing the environment we operate in,” Andrew concludes. FG

“Our land is light, we can pretty much work it every day of the year,” explains Andrew. Growing over 30 different types of crops along the Orwell Estuary, the operation supplies produce to major supermarket chains through the UK. The farm is certified by the Soil Association and LEAF, and grows produce under Red Tractor Assured Food Standards among other designations. Maintaining soil health ensures the land remains productive year-round. “We grow lots of cover crops,” Andrew explains. “We sometimes use sheep to graze after harvesting field produce and regularly mow grass, clover, herb crops and stubbles to recycle valuable green manures.” Recycling crop residue and green manure requires intensive mowing practices. The farm relied on flail mowers for stubble management, but found the machines to be lacking. “Flail mowers need regular blade sharpening and the power requirements are significantly more,” Andrew explains. “Plus, they had belts, which are really not the best drive option in a high horsepower situation. “We looked at the Major Cyclone at LAMMA and were really impressed with the build quality and the low power requirement,” he enthuses. “The direct drive transmission meant doing away with belts and the promise of a much better finish to all kinds of crop stubble and grassland areas.” Local dealer TNS offered a demonstration of the 5.6m Major Cyclone on harvested cauliflower stubble. “We were really impressed with the excellent job it made. It was a very clear choice to acquire the Major,” Andrew states. The 5.6m Major Cyclone comes with eight rotors and 34 blades, ensuring all material is pulverised and spread evenly across the width of the machine. The wings of the mower can fold up to a transport width of 2m. Constructed from high-performance Strenx 700 MC structural steel and fully galvanised, the mower is built for endurance, strength and longevity. “The Cyclone covers twice the area compared to the flail in the same about of time, enhancing our overall field performance while saving at least 25% on fuel consumption,” Andrew remarks.

Driving down your fuel costs

Small fleets look for solution to fuel crisis

The Merridale range includes fuel management systems, fuel pumps and dispensers, fuel storage tanks, tank gauges and fuel management software for client and web-based solutions.

Following the endless queues at the pumps in the recent fuel crisis, many businesses who rely on a fleet are still feeling the backlash. One company has had a significant increase in enquiries about above-ground storage tanks from fleet operators looking to avoid such problems in the future. West Midlands company Merridale, which provides fuel management and monitoring systems, can specify, source, and supply storage and dispensing systems to suit your shape, footprint, and specifications. The company’s above-ground, fully-bunded tanks can include options such as walkways and anti-vandal cabinets, and are typically supplied in sizes between 500 and 200,000 litres. Even with a smaller storage tank, fleet owners have more control over their fuelling process and can take advantage of the cheaper prices when buying in bulk compared to purchasing from filling stations. There is no need for drivers to queue and collect fuel as it would be safely stored in your yard and operators will see far better control of usage. Over the last 10 years, Merridale Ltd has become a major supplier of above-ground bunded storage tank systems in the UK. In a competitive market, the company has managed

to secure a reputation as a reliable and trustworthy provider by developing a set of stringent design and quality standards. With the focus on ensuring that customers get exactly what they deserve, a package designed for long-life, compliance, and supportability, Merridale says it only works with fabricators that it knows work to the highest standards. To help combat fuel theft, Merridale’s tanks can also be fitted with Merridale tank management systems. These systems include sudden-drop detection, to alert you immediately via SMS of any unexpected change in fuel level. This means that you will be alerted to any severe leak or theft from the tank that occurs, irrespective of where you are at the time. To find out how a Merridale fuel and tank management system could benefit your company, contact Merridale directly or visit www.merridale.co.uk FG

Merridale systems are installed at over 4,000 sites throughout the UK, Ireland, Channel Islands and Holland. Up to 400,000 vehicles fuel every day on a Merridale system.

Sustainable farming benefits from after-market inflation system An aftermarket on-board tyre inflation system is helping one of the UK’s largest vegetable and salad producers protect vulnerable black fen soils. David Williams reports. West Norfolk-based Feltwell Growers grows approximately 6,000t of radishes on 400ha of fen near Downham Market. The company is part of G’s Growers – one of the UK’s largest salad and vegetable producers – and the radish enterprise is run by manager Scott Watson with assistant manager Sam Bretton. Radishes are planted from February and harvesting starts in March, with final crops drilled in September for harvesting in late October. Harvesting six days per week meets sales demand from wholesalers and supermarkets.

Carbon release The black fen soils are vulnerable to damage – especially when working conditions are wet. “We farm in an environmentally sensitive area and do what we can to minimise ground damage,” explained Scott. “It’s important to us and the supermarkets we supply that we protect the land and reduce carbon release, but after two successive very wet autumns when excessive rutting occurred, we needed a long-term solution.”

Trailers a challenge Much of the damage is caused by trailer wheels which create deep

ruts when conditions are wet. Trailer manufacturer Richard Larrington was approached by Scott and his team to find a solution. “The original idea was to build a tracked trailer to carry wheeled trailers to and from the harvester in the fields,” explained Richard. “However, when we looked at the practicalities it became obvious that a trailer weighing at least 10t was required to carry a loaded trailer weighing 25t, and that would need four rubber track assemblies to achieve ground pressure equivalent to 1.0Bar per square inch. Not only was it a very complex solution, it would also cost £150,000–£200,000, so we looked at alternatives.”

VF tyres The latest VF tyres were considered – capable of operating at low pressures down to 1.0Bar to maximise the contact area and reduce ground pressure. Michelin loaned four VF 560/60-22.5 Trail XBib tyres which were fitted to one of the trailers, and a set of XeoBib VF 710/60R42 rear tyres and VF 600/60R30 fronts was fitted to one of the tractors. The tractor and trailer tyres were all inflated to 1.0Bar. A similar trailer equipped with its existing tyres inflated to the recommended 3.6Bar operating

pressure and towed by a tractor with tyres at 1.2Bar was used as a comparison. Both were driven across wet ground typical of conditions experienced during a typical radish harvesting season. “The trailer on standard tyres sank and the tractor pulling it became stuck,” explained Richard. “It took three tractors to pull it out. “We then approached the same area with the tractor and trailer on Michelin VF tyres and were convinced it would become stuck too, but it drove across the surface with no problems at all. I was amazed – we hadn’t spent vast amounts of money on sets of rubber tracks. We had only let air out of the tyres to spread the same weight over a larger area.”

Transport speed challenge After harvesting, radishes are transported to the farm’s Love Radish

processing plant for cleaning and grading. Travelling long distances at high speeds meant that higher trailer tyre inflation pressures up to 3Bar were needed for optimum safety and ride quality. “Most manufacturersupplied on-board inflation systems use compressors capable of pumping only 6ft3/min, so inflating large tyres like these takes too long,” continued Richard. “For the radish production team, a system is needed capable of achieving higher road operating pressures in the short time it takes travelling from the headland to the road. On returning to the field, the pressures have to reduce from 3.0Bar to 1.0Bar again by the time the tractor and trailer leave the headland.”

Canadian solution In 2018, Richard visited a Canadian farm show and looked at an aftercontinued over…

Selecting in-field operating pressures of 0.6Bar and 0.7Bar for the tractor and 1.0bar on the loaded trailer (above left) created wide wheelings only 10cm deep. Raising the pressures to 1.0Bar on the tractor and 3.0Bar on the trailer resulted in the trailer tyre treads filling with mud, ruts 18cm deep and increased tractor wheel slip.

Machinery work again takes under 20 seconds,” stressed Richard. “A pressure relief valve protects against over-inflation, and if the operator forgets to increase pressures for road work, then an alarm sounds when pre-set speeds are exceeded.”

Practical solution The AgriBrink hydraulic-driven compressor and twin 200-litre air tanks are mounted within a front bumper assembly. The bumper is wider than the external air pipes, making it easy for operators to judge the width and avoid damage to the pressure control system. …from previous page

market tyre inflation system by AgriBrink. “It was quicker than other systems inflating and deflating tyres, but the external pipework put me off as I felt it would be vulnerable to damage,” he explained. “However, its rapid operation was just what Scott and his team needed, so earlier this year I contacted the manufacturer again and imported a unit to trial.” The AgriBrink Air Inflation system includes a 200ft3/min compressor driven from the tractor’s hydraulic oil supply, and two 80-litre tanks holding compressed air at 9.5Bar pressure act as reservoirs. Everything is within a neat frame mounted on the front linkage. Control is through an in-cab terminal and the system is Isobus compatible. Field and transport operating pressures are set and memorised. Then the operator has only to select road or field mode and required pressures for the tractor wheels and trailer are applied. Unlike other systems using a central pressure control, the AgriBrink design has a separate controller on each wheel. When pressures are reduced, air is released quickly through an exhaust valve on each wheel. “It’s a very practical design and increasing the tractor and trailer tyre pressures for road work takes only 90 seconds, then reducing them for field

After becoming the UK importer, Richard displayed the AgriBrink system on the Larrington Trailers stand at Cereals this year, and there was considerable interest although the external air lines caused some concern. “They aren’t a problem – operators know they are there, they are within the width of the front bumper bar and the tractor’s rear-view mirrors stick out further,” Richard stressed. Sam said the AgriBrink system works well, and operators find it easy to operate. The external pipes haven’t been damaged during the first season’s use. One tractor is fitted with the AgriBrink pressure adjustment system so far, and two trailers have been equipped with compatible wheels and pipework. Two more radish trailers and a salad trailer will also have the system installed.

Visible benefits Farmers Guide’s farm visit coincided with heavy rain providing ideal conditions to see the benefits of the VF tyres operating at their recommended pressures. While running alongside the harvester, the tyres were set to field pressures of 0.6Bar and 0.7Bar on the front and rear of the tractor, and 1.0Bar on the trailer. The markings were wide and shallow to a depth of only 10cm. The operator then selected transport pressures and within 90 seconds the tyres were inflated to 1.0Bar on the front and rear of the tractor and 3.0Bar on the trailer. The resulting wheelmarks were narrower and ruts 18cm deep resulted. The trailer tyre treads filled with mud

and tractor wheelslip increased. The pressures were reduced again to the in-field settings and tractor wheelslip reduced, the trailer tyre treads became clean and the wheelings reduced to 10cm again. Penetrometer tests confirmed increased compaction where the operating pressures had been increased.

Affordable solution Larrington Trailers provides a supply and fit service for the AgriBrink system. The front-mounted pump and air reservoir assembly plus tyre inflation valves and pipework for the tractor costs £16,950 including fitting, and the cost per wheel for trailers to be equipped with the system is £1,200. New rims and tyres might also be needed, and Richard Larrington recommends ordering new tactors and trailers on VF tyres for potential cost savings later. AgriBrink president Jake Kraavenbrink said the rotating wheel valves and other components are identical to those fitted to commercial vehicles and are designed to last more than one million miles, so will easily stand many years of low-speed agricultural use. “Advantages over manufacturersupplied on-board tyre inflation

systems include faster operation, less complexity and a much cheaper cost,” confirmed Richard. “Reducing soil damage and compaction increases crop yields and profits, and reduces costs of soil structure repair. The AgriBrink system is easily moved to a new tractor or trailer when machines are updated, so the return on the investment will continue for many years.”

Successful and practical “It’s been very successful,” Sam concluded. “We are impressed by the VF tyres and being able to optimise pressures for field and road applications allows us to get the best performance in both situations. Whereas tracks would remain flat on the surface and struggle for grip in slippery conditions, tyres operating at low pressure flex and stay clean, and they mould themselves around undulations and grip well. There is reduced wheelslip, the trailers are easier to pull so less power is needed and we save fuel too. “Looking at the field after harvesting, the benefits are obvious. We have reduced soil structure damage and disturbance, and greatly lessened the environmental impact of our activities.” FG

Campaign to enhance sustainable farming practices launches Agri-Tech Innovation Centre, CHAP, has launched a new campaign that aims to enhance sustainable farming practices to help accelerate agriculture’s journey towards net zero. ‘Making Connections’ brings together tools, knowledge and solutions that all strive for the same goal – driving farm productivity within a net zero-orientated agricultural landscape. CHAP (Crop Health & Protection) hopes that by enabling the adoption of agri-tech innovation, such as precision agriculture, improved data management and predictive modelling, growers will be supported in making informed decisions that contribute positively to their farming systems. Commercial director for CHAP, Linsey Cresswell (right), said: “Agriculture’s contribution towards climate change has long been under the spotlight, with an ambitious target from the NFU of reaching net zero greenhouse gas emissions across the whole of agriculture in England and Wales by 2040. “Plus, with the UN’s Climate Change Conference, COP26, taking place in around a months’ time, we will all need to take a look at the environmental impact of not only our businesses, but our personal choices too. “We believe that agri-tech innovation has a very positive role to play in achieving net zero, but that there remains important

work to do in breaking down the barriers to adoption and improving accessibility. “Therein lies the purpose of CHAP’s ‘Making Connections’ campaign – it’s here to bridge that gap. This could mean demonstrating the practical on-farm value of systems such as regenerative agriculture, or unlocking the potential of new predictive modelling concepts. “We want to foster great collaborations across our industry to promote the opportunities within sustainable agriculture.”

Knowledge and insight Launched at the end of September, ‘Making Connections’ draws on knowledge and insight firmly embedded within CHAP, linking to two of the agritech centre’s strategic areas of focus – Digital Agronomy and Soil & Crop Health Systems. These two areas will form the bedrock of the campaign, as well as work from the New Innovations team, who will be sharing a report based on their latest business case – the ‘Field Profiler for Regenerative Agriculture’.

will also be shared, all linked to the campaign. Strategic marketing manager, Janine Heath (right), said: “Following the success of CHAP’s biologicals campaign, ‘Changing Perceptions’, we are delighted to be building on that good work through the launch of ‘Making Connections’. “Agri-tech offers a host of innovative solutions that can help our industry to achieve net zero, but when that’s up against ensuring business productivity, we must be able to demonstrate clear on-farm benefits and de-risk. “We hope to address this issue during the campaign as we share

engaging content on the subject, host online webinars and publish a review of our latest business case. We’ll also be taking ‘Making Connections’ on tour as we exhibit at trade events such as CropTec and FPC Future. “We very much welcome input from our partners, members and wider network, so if you’d like to join the discussion, please get in touch.” CHAP is funded by Innovate UK and is one of four UK Agri-Tech Centres. CHAP’s vision is for the UK to be a global leader in the development of applied agritechnologies, to help secure a future by nourishing a growing population sustainably while delivering economic, environmental and health benefits to society. CHAP is exhibiting at CropTec on 24–25th November, so do pop along to its stand if you’d like to learn more about ‘Making Connections and the other projects CHAP is working on. FG

News Refurbished robots still lift their weight

Strong partnership brings benefits The 'Yellow Storm’ started for Bednar in the UK and Republic of Ireland, in 2019. During that time, hundreds of yellow machines were delivered to the UK, which are being used by new customers who have recognised the build quality and design features. From 1st August 2020, Bednar made an exclusive marketing alliance to represent the Bednar brand in cooperation with leading agricultural machinery manufacturer, Case IH. This cooperation can only be described as a great milestone, Bednar says. The product portfolio of the Bednar brand currently offers 45 model lines of machines for tillage, seeding, fertilisation, inter-row cultivation and management of postharvest residues. With working widths from 3.0–18.4m, the Bednar machines

are ideally suited for the entire power portfolio of Case IH tractors. Bednar UK and ROI managing director Warren Rivers-Scott said: “There is an incredible synergy between Case IH and the fantastic portfolio from Bednar. The forwardthinking clever design features and our state-of-the-art production facilities highlight the premium build quality. The opportunity for Case IH to support their dealer network, which defined stability in what seems to be a turbulent franchise market. “So far, we have seen an unprecedented amount of support for the Omega drill, the folding mulching topper and the Swifterdisc short disc cultivator (pictured) which has given us a 10.01% market share in the UK for 2020.” FG

Industrial robots on farms being used for potato bag palletisation is not a new idea. However, new features and innovations by Bradley Engineering bring physical size down, capacity up and maintain an affordable price for the farmer grower who is struggling to find labour willing to hand-stack bags. Refurbished robots come with every feature of any other palletiser on the market and, with the fact they have been fully stripped down and rebuilt, many years of service ahead of them. For those who already have ageing robots on farm, Bradley Engineering specialises in the repair

and maintenance of these older machines. Additions and tweaks can be made in order to help them stack better and faster without having to replace the whole unit. For those growers looking to upgrade or replace an older machine Bradley Engineering offers competitive trade in values for the old machines. Contact the company today for all enquiries. FG

Busy September open day for Cambs main dealer An open day at Ben Burgess’ Coates, Cambridgeshire depot attracted more than 600 visitors and featured premium brands including John Deere, Kuhn, Bailey Trailers, Kramer, Avant, McConnel, Cherry Products and Greencrop Irrigation.

An open day at Ben Burgess’ Coates depot proved popular with customers and local residents when it was held in mid-September. David Williams was there. Ben Burgess operates from seven depots serving customers in Norfolk as well as parts of Suffolk, Cambridgeshire, Northamptonshire and Rutland. Complementing the main John Deere franchise – other premium agricultural brands held by the dealer include Kramer, Kuhn, Grimme, McConnel, Avant, Bailey Trailers, and Vaderstad from the Norwich, Beeston, Newmarket,

Ellington and Aylsham depots. The open day on Saturday 18th September was the first at Coates since Ben Burgess acquired the depot in 2013, and it was followed by a charity tractor run on the Sunday – starting and finishing at the depot – which included 53 tractors of various brands and ages. The tractor run was in memory of Ben Burgess Coates depot manager Steve Trostler, who died in an

accident in 2019. The run raised funds for the East Anglian Air Ambulance and included a John Deere tractor sponsored by Farmers Guide. By late September when this article was written, more than £2,500 had been raised and money was still coming in.

Well supported Coates branch manager, Tony Fincham said the open day was

a big success. “We were keen to attract new and existing agricultural customers to the event, as well as families living locally to explain what we offer and what we do,” he explained. “More than 600 people attended the event, and it was obvious that many who hadn’t visited the depot before were surprised by the showroom and the variety of items we stock. Our stores counter was very busy dealing with enquiries, and sales of parts, garden machinery, clothing, toys and sundries. “There was a lot of interest in the John Deere combine as some farmers still had crops to harvest, and we also noted that the Kuhn representatives and our own sales teams received a lot of enquiries regarding drills and cultivation products. We expect a busy autumn of demonstrations and sales. Feedback regarding the day was very positive and visitors complimented the friendly atmosphere.” FG

Strong demand across range Megant tine drills have been in high demand according to Kuhn area sales manager Louise Skinner, who is pictured with cultivations and minimum tillage product specialist Rupert Greest. “Two wet winters have focussed demand on drills which perform in challenging conditions, and the Megant is well priced and comes in three popular sizes from 3–12m,” she explained. “Our Espro disc drill has also been popular this year, as conditions for operation were excellent. Ploughs for in-furrow and on-land operation are also gaining popularity as they provide flexibility for working in wet or dry conditions, and we have expanded our range to include smaller models suitable for lighter, less powerful tractors whereas previously they were only available in larger sizes. The Optimer + shallow cultivator is also selling well, as it is ideal for post-harvest trash incorporation and surface consolidation for moisture retention as well as for establishing cover crops and encouraging volunteer and grass weed seeds to chit. Carbon release is something more farmers are aware of, and growers are already preparing for future farming techniques including reduced cultivations.”

NRoSO and Basis points were available for attending a seminar by Brown & Co, and a spraying technology presentation by John Deere sprayer product specialist Mark James. Pictured with Mark are (l-r) Trevor and Steven Garrod who farm at Crowland, and Daniel Bellamy who visited the open day with Trevor and Steven.

Greater accuracy John Deere sprayer product specialist Mark James enjoyed a busy show, explaining features and benefits of the latest self-propelled and trailed sprayers and in particular the manufacturer’s exclusive PowrSpray system. PowrSpray is available on selfpropelled and higher specification trailed sprayers and uses twin hydraulically-driven centrifugal pumps – one for filling, and the other for spraying. Fast filling rates up to 1,200 litres/min are available, and Direct Rate Control by adjusting the speed of the spray pump means no conventional pressure control is needed. Mark added that around 25% of sprayers sold now have individual nozzle control, as customers demand greater accuracy. “Conditions this year made it easy to see overlaps and misses, and that has increased interest in features to improve accuracy. We have seen a lot of customers who are upgrading sprayers opting for independent nozzle control instead of section control.”

Machinery Smaller loaders

Sales increasing Kramer’s traditional telescopic handlers remain the most popular choice for agricultural handling tasks, although sales of all-wheel steer loaders are increasing, said Kramer dealer development manager Andrew Dixon, who was at the event. One of the first of Kramer’s new KL55.8T loaders to arrive in the UK was at the open day. The allwheel steer loader can lift 4t to 5.5m and has a 156hp engine and a 40kph transmission. “The all-wheel steer design offers advantages including constant lift capacity at all steering angles, whereas when the alternative articulated machines turn the lift capacity reduces,” highlighted Andrew. “The turning circle is smaller too. Like other products in our line-up, it is very easy to operate and customers will appreciate the quality of build and reliability.” Pictured with some of the Kramer handlers and Cherry Products attachments are (l-r) Andrew Dixon, Graham Cherry, Tony Fincham and Harry Copping.

Charity support A stall at the open day raised funds for local charity Pedal 4 Memories. Linked to the Batten Disease Families Association (BDFA), Pedal 4 Memories was set up by the family of Ben Burgess Coates yardman Dennis Grant. Juvenile Batten disease is an extremely rare disorder of the nervous system, affecting a very small number of children in the UK. Two of Dennis’ grandsons aged just 6 and 10 suffer from the condition, and half the money raised by Pedal 4 Memories funds experiences for the brothers to create strong memories to remain with the boys as juvenile dementia develops. Past funding has financed a trip to Lapland, a West End show, and a den for their garden. In late October the boys’ father Ben Dodkin and nine family friends will undertake a sponsored bike ride from Wales to Wisbech to raise money to fund further events. Half of all money raised goes to Pedal 4 Memories and the rest is donated to the Batten Disease Families Association. See www.pedal4memories.co.uk for further information or to donate. Ben Burgess yardman Dennis Grant is pictured with his three grandsons – brothers Finley Dodkin (10), Arthur (eight) and Harrison (six).

Avant products are popular with groundscare and construction customers as well as the farming community and a selection of models was displayed. Smaller loaders such as the 700-series which lifts 1.4t and can stack large bales three high are particularly popular, along with the slightly larger 860-series which lifts 1.9t to 3.5m. The compact Avant machines are ideal for use in confined spaces such as poultry sheds or traditional farm buildings. Yanmar excavators were also on show, as the range was taken on by Ben Burgess last year. Most sales are to construction and landscaping companies, but the versatile machines are in demand for agricultural applications, too.

Avant area sales manager Richard Jenkin is pictured (left) with Ben Burgess groundscare commercial manager based at Newmarket, Chris Pateman, who also looks after sales from Coates and Ellington.

Products and service Farmer Roger Easton trades as GR & P Easton and is based in Coates. He had loaned his John Deere combine for the event. The all-arable farm grows 600ha of mixed crops including potatoes, and he has used John Deere combines since the 1980s. “We moved to another brand for a few years but returned to John Deere three years ago with the S785i, which has just completed its third season,” he explained. “We use John Deere tractors too, including two 6R-series and an 8370 rubber tracked crawler. It’s an advantage that the controls are all similar. We spend all year in the tractors and only three weeks in the combine cab, but as soon as we get in the combine everything is familiar.” Roger grows wheat for milling and biscuit making and targets a quality sample and low losses. “This combine achieves a very good sample,” he stressed. “I start with the factory settings for each crop, then watch the sample and tweak the settings as needed. It’s so easy to focus on sample quality with GPS guidance looking after the steering. “The rubber tracks are excellent and much more comfortable than the other brand we tried, and backup from the team at Ben Burgess Coates is fantastic – we couldn’t ask for more. What seems to help is that the team members all have experience of different products, so if one doesn’t know Roger is pictured (left) with the answer, they ask a colleague Ben Burgess Coates-based area sales and come back to us with manager Harry Coppin. solutions quickly.”

Robotic cutting The new McConnel RC56 Robocut 2 is built in the UK and was displayed alongside the smaller RC28 version which joined the range last year. “Most demand is from environmental agencies and other users operating in areas where there might be risks for operators of conventional machines,” commented territory sales manager for the east, Paul Jinks. “Our Power Arm tractor-mounted hedge and verge cutters are very popular with farmers and contractors in Ben Burgess Coates’ trading area, particularly for dyke and hedge maintenance. The flagship PA8075T model has an 85hp hydraulic drive and easily copes with thick grass and reeds,” he added.

Latest model has lots of appeal An opportunity to try Kubota’s latest M6002-series tractors in a range of working applications confirmed their suitability for UK farms. David Williams reports. The M6-series tractors were announced at the Spanish Fima show in February 2020, but deliveries to the UK were delayed for various reasons, including Covid-19. Since spring this year, the tractors have been available through the growing UK dealer network, and a press demonstration on a Staffordshire farm in late September provided opportunities to assess their performance with a plough, a loader and for transport.

Filling a gap The brand new M6-series comes with a higher level of sophistication and greater capability than existing MG-Xseries tractors of similar power which will continue to meet the needs of the utility sector with a Stage 5 emissions control refresh, but the new M6-series remains lighter and more compact than the more powerful M7 models. The three new M6 models with a 2.96m wheelbase and power outputs from 122–142hp fill a gap in Kubota’s agricultural offering in the popular 120–140hp market segment.

Plenty of torque Power is from a 4-cyl, 6.1-litre turbocharged engine and all models have an extra 20hp available for transport applications. Like the M7series, the engine’s large capacity and long piston stroke provide very high torque at low revs – with maximum achieved at only 1,500rpm. Stage 5 emissions standards are met using SCR (AdBlue) and a DPF. The DPF service interval is increased from 3,000 hours on MG-X models to 6,000 hours on the new M6, and oil changes are at 500 hours.

New transmission The new eight-speed powershift transmission with three robotised

ranges provides 24x24 speeds standard, and an optional creeper transmission increases the choice of ratios to 32x32. Gears within each range can be set to change automatically and speed matching ensures that when changing up or down through the ranges, the ratio selected is suitable. A sensitivity dial allows the gear change response to be set to match the working load. The 40kph Eco transmission achieves maximum speed in 23rd gear, but in top 24th gear the engine revs reduce to 1,640rpm for fuel savings. Standard tractors will automatically engage the bottom gear for starting when the clutch is depressed and held, but with the optional K-Monitor terminal the operator has the option to select any gear for starting as a preference. The new tractors also have Kubota’s Xpress Restart function allowing operators to stop and start tractor movement just by depressing or releasing the brake pedal, and the clutch engages and disengages automatically. This is ideal for repetitive tasks including loader work or baling.

Tight turning radius A front portal axle manufactured by Kubota ensures plenty of ground clearance and allows a tight steering angle up to 55 degrees. The selectable bi-speed turn mode speeds up the front wheels when the steering angle exceeds 35 degrees and is used to reduce the turning radius and maximise manoeuvrability. “Bi-speed turning mode reduces the turning radius by 15% and offers particular advantages for vegetable producers and similar intensive farming regimes where small headlands are used, allowing turns to be completed

Fitting neatly into the 120–140hp size segment, the new M6 tractors aren’t an obvious ploughing tractor, but when pulling the 5f Kverneland Vari-width plough the flagship M6-142 performed well.

The four-pillar cab is quiet and comfortable and visibility is excellent. Manual hydraulic controls are standard, but the load-sensing system with 115 litres/min maximum flow and Power Beyond capability will allow use with demanding implements.

without shunting to save time and optimise productivity,” pointed out Kubota UK agricultural and ground care dealer manager for the Midlands, North-West and Wales, Phil Brooks.

Big tractor capability The new rear axle is much larger than that of the MG-X series to cope with greater loads, and a Cat 3 rear linkage with 7.0t lift capacity is standard. Four PTO speeds – 540, 540-Eco, 1,000 and 1,000-Eco are provided at the rear. An optional front linkage with 3.26t capacity is an option not previously available on this size tractor from Kubota, and a front PTO is also available. Closed centre, load-sensing hydraulics are standard, and 115 litres/ min oil flow provides Power Beyond capability. Four standard spool valves all have in-cab flow control. A new agreement with MX means tractors can be ordered from the

factory loader-ready, and five Kubotabadged loaders with lift height to 4m and capacity up to 2,400kg are available.

Operator environment The four-post cab frame is shared with the larger M7-series and the MG-X, but the interior finish is different. Cab and front axle suspension and a Grammer seat are standard for the UK market. Armrest-mounted controls include a multi-function joystick with buttons to shuttle between forward and reverse, operate the hydraulic linkage and to store and select travel and engine speeds. Travel direction can also be selected using the main shuttle lever beside the steering column. An optional 7in K-Monitor terminal adds functionality and improves control. Isobus is an option. Precision farming capability includes an option to specify tractors from the factory continued over…

autosteer-ready, otherwise motorised steering wheels can be fitted. Work light packages include a premium option with 16 LEDs, and high-intensity LED beacons are standard.

Test drive

The rear axle and transmission housing are larger than those of MG-X models, and all M6 models have 7t lift capacity.

Power is from a 4-cyl, 6.1-litre engine with superb torque characteristics allowing operation at low revs.

A high proportion of M6 models sold in the UK are expected to be equipped with front loaders. A new arrangement with MX means tractors will be sent from the factory loader-ready and a range of five loaders in Kubota colours is available.

A test drive quickly proved the new M6-series to be worthy of consideration for farmers needing a comfortable and capable tractor in this size category. A wide opening door provides easy access to the four-pillar cab, and the large windows and narrow pillars ensure excellent all-around vision. Two levers adjust the steering wheel – one allows it to move forward for access and then locks it in the working position and the other is used to adjust the reach. The Grammer seat has plenty of adjustment and legroom for taller operators is adequate. There is plenty of headroom, and space to the sides and rear. The armrest-mounted controls are well arranged, and large buttons and switches are easy to use, although some identification decals are too small, making them difficult to read. Handling round bales on the front-end loader, the M6-132 proved nimble. The separate loader joystick was comfortable to use and allowed fine adjustments. The generous hydraulic oil flow rates provided quick cycle times, even with the engine at just over an idle. Using the main shuttle lever beside the steering column for direction changes was more convenient for loader work than using the main joystick-mounted buttons, but direction control through the loader joystick is a possible future upgrade. Kubota’s brake-to-clutch system was also tried and proved useful for working with the loader. Holding the tractor on the brake while the shuttle lever is used to change direction, then just releasing the brake to move away again is more convenient than using the clutch and brake pedals together.

Traction and torque An opportunity to assess the most powerful M6-142 with a 5f Kverneland Vari-width plough proved the M6’s field work capabilities. The engine has plenty of torque and the plough was pulled easily. Memorised working speeds made headland turns easier and pressing the slower speed on approaching the headland allowed time for the plough to be lifted and turned ready for the return run. As soon as the turn was completed and

the plough had been lowered, the button selecting the saved working speed was pressed, and the tractor accelerated. With plenty of torque, the tractor could be kept in a high gear at low revs to reduce fuel consumption. Rain showers on the clay soils made conditions very slippery. Working uphill required the front differential lock to maintain a constant speed, but the tractor coped well. Ploughing also provided an ideal opportunity to try out the bi-speed steering mode. With it engaged the 4.5m turning radius made it possible to work much closer to the fence before commencing turns. It is a useful feature but quite aggressive, and with the front wheels fighting for traction there was obvious surface disturbance.

Verdict The clear view from the driver’s seat down to the front wheels is excellent, and for loader and yard work this helps in confined spaces and around obstructions. The cab isn’t luxurious, but it is comfortable and quiet and the finish is good. For a tractor in this power segment its ability to pull the plough without fuss was impressive. It’s easy to operate with straightforward controls that operators will like, and the optional K-Monitor makes it easy to tweak settings to optimise performance.

Growing brand reputation “We have an excellent agricultural dealer network covering most of the UK, but there are still some areas where representation is needed,” explained Kubota agricultural marketing manager Rob Edwards. “In areas where the brand is ‘new’, we see potential customers being approached by dealers then being impressed by our tractors during demonstrations. Where dealers have had the tractors available for longer, there are more Kubotas already on farms and owners are recommending the brand to friends and neighbours who then approach the dealers. Feedback from Kubota users is generally excellent, and the brand is building a great reputation. “The new M6 tractors fill a gap in our range in a competitive market segment, but with a comfortable cab and many useful features standard they are bound to be popular. We expect a large number of M6 buyers to fit front loaders for use on livestock and mixed farms, but options including GPS guidance and autosteer, front linkage and PTO, and Isobus for compatibility with complex implements will ensure appeal to all types and sizes of farm and farming business.” FG

Machinery

The new Aerosem VT 5000 DD is a 5m powerharrow drill combination. Being trailed rather than fully mounted permits use with smaller, lighter tractors, but the compact layout makes it extremely manoeuvrable and avoids headland shunting.

Updated balers and new seed drill options Increased productivity and accurate seed placement are advantages of Pottinger’s new trailed power-harrow drill combination, while updated round balers offer greater versatility and gain extra features. David Williams reports. The new Aerosem VT has a 5m working width and combines active cultivation by the power harrow with perfect seed placement, and improved soil conservation through a new highvolume grooved tyre packer.

Low power requirement The trailed design allows use with smaller, lighter tractors. The drill attaches to the lower linkage arms so its weight is distributed evenly between the tractor wheels and the rear packer. The 2,800-litre seed hopper is longitudinally mounted and completely new. A 50/50 division is standard and gives flexibility to use the full volume for seed, or to fill half with fertiliser for placement during seeding and saving an additional pass. The power-harrow drill combination is compact and very manoeuvrable, allowing efficient tight turns on narrow headlands. Even with dual wheels on the tractor, turning into the next pass is possible.

Multi-product metering The pressurised metering system maintains accuracy at high application rates, and seed flow remains constant regardless of the seed type or working conditions. Each side of the hopper has separate metering, but both meters feed into the same single shoot seed line. The meters have separate control and allow two application maps to be used simultaneously for site-specific drilling.

Effective seed placement Dual Disc coulters achieve accurate seed placement even in difficult working conditions. Large offset coulters form a clean and clear slot and are mounted on maintenancefree arms of equal length with a 30cm offset for maximum reliability – even where plant residue volumes are high.

Coulter pressures up to 60kg ensure penetration and reliable cutting at high speeds, and the V-profile slot prevents seeds rolling.

Soil conservation The new rear packer is formed from large tyres to reduce the pressure applied and minimise rolling resistance to prevent bulldozing. The large contact area and special grooved profile ensure optimal consolidation of the seed rows, and hydraulic roller damping ensures smooth operation allowing high drilling speeds to be maintained on all surfaces and soil types.

The Impress 3190V Pro comes with a 32-knife chopper, Isobus control and additional automation.

Impress baler upgrades Pottinger Impress round balers joined the range five years ago, and updated models for 2022 have a revised appearance, a new name and additional features. Pottinger says that beneath the baler’s new styling, proven design features including the floating pick-up and the Liftup chopping system with up to 32 knives have been retained. One of the main improvements is denser, better formed bales resulting from a baling pressure increase of 20%. The basic range retains two fixed chamber Impress 3130F Master and Impress 3130 F Pro models as well as three variable chamber machines. The Impress 3160 and Impress 3190 are available in the V version without choppers, the V Master has a 16-knife chopper and basic controls, and the V Pro has 32 knives, load-sensing Isobus control and additional automation. Three baler-wrapper combinations include the Impress 3130 FC Pro fixed chamber making bales of 1.3m diameter, the Impress 3160 VC Pro variable chamber making bales up to 1.55m diameter and the Impress 3190 VC Pro for bales up to 1.85m. Bales up to 1.5m can be wrapped.

A new binding unit with film and film binding is now available for all Impress Pro models.

Improved binding A completely new binding unit includes feed and tension control of the binding material from outside the chamber rather than by the bale core. Maximum material width is 1.4m and the baler can be equipped for film and film binding using a tail binding unit. Settings for net and film are saved separately and for frequent changes between net and film, a second binding roll holder can be added. An optional roll loading system reduces operator effort.

User-friendly Pro models are available with a new LED lighting package to improve monitoring of the pick-up, bale ejector and wrapper platform. LED strips below the side panels make servicing and roll changing easier. An optional hose reel using air from the overflow valve of the braking system can be used to clean the baler. Moisture sensors can be fitted with data displayed on the in-cab terminal.

The new Power Control 3.0 terminal provides easier operation with direct function selection using membrane keys and adjustments made on the 5in touch monitor. Cameras are an option and up to four images can be displayed simultaneously on a separate 10in LCD screen.

Wrappers upgraded The wrappers are also improved. Bale rotation can start before, and continue after wrapping for tidier results, and prevent loose ends being caught during handling and transport. Capacity is up to 2 x 8 rolls of wrapping film or 2 x 6 rolls of wrapping film plus 2 x 1 roll of binding film, so there is plenty of on-board storage for long days wrapping in the field.

Longevity Maintenance status is monitored by a service counter which warns the operator when servicing is due, and a new freewheel in the rotor drive allows overrun, saving stress on the drivelines. FG

Machinery The Horsch Leeb sprayer range has gained new mounted models from 1,400–2,200 litres.

New models and products for additional sectors Horsch announced new cultivators, drills and sprayers during a pre-Agritechnica press launch. David Williams reports. Versatile cultivator The Joker CT compact disc cultivator has a revised disc working angle. This improves cultivation quality and leaves a better finish. The inclined disc breaks soil capillaries across the entire working width even at shallow depths, helping to preserve available water.

New edge discs maintain contact with the previous track on headlands and field borders, and a ballast weight is easily added or removed for different working conditions. A new version of the Joker CT has been added for liquid manure incorporation. In 6m and 7m working widths it is expected to appeal to contractors. Front support wheels provide depth control and there is no rear packer. Low basic weight and a stable frame make it ideal for mounting to trailed or self-propelled tankers. The open disc design and high clearance ensures operation in wet conditions without blocking. Additional options for the Joker CT include a MiniDrill as well as various packers.

Mechanical weed control Cura ST harrows are ideal for hybrid farming as part of a strategy to reduce herbicide use as well as for the organic sector. New 6m and 9m working widths are available – increasing the number of linkage-mounted models to five with working widths from 6.0–15m, and there is also a 24m trailed version.

The new Cura 6 ST and Cura 9 ST are both in three sections and fold to under 3m for transport with a folded height under 4m. One-side folding is possible. Horsch states that the strong, rigid frame permits high work rates and 450mm ground to frame clearance allows use in high crops. The spring-loaded tines are mounted individually. Double springs comprising a fine spring inside and a heavier spring outside are above the frame for gentle harrowing of crops with high plant populations as well as maximum trash and crop clearance. Working angle adjustment is achieved through height adjustable support wheels. The tines are kinked and flex in the centre, so each tine maintains a constant track. Hydraulic tine angle adjustment is standard and hydraulic pressure adjustment is an option.

Inter-row cultivation Transformer VF inter-row hoes from 6–18m are now available, since the addition of new 9 and 18m working widths. The 9 and 12m versions are in five sections allowing them to work folded in 6 and 8m widths. Like other Transformer models, the new sizes have a short frame keeping the weight in close behind the tractor and reducing the lifting requirement. On side slopes this ensures directional stability. The frame height is 660mm allowing use in tall crops. Row spacings from 15–80cm can be achieved and the working width adjusts easily without tools. Accessories including crop protection discs to protect small plants are available. Guidance cameras have colour-dependent 2D and colour-independent 3D working modes, and plants as small as 2cm are detected. RowLift section control prevents row segments being missed or damaged and reduces the driver’s workload.

Finer SL In working widths of 6m and 7m, the versatile Finer SL spring-tine harrow is ideal for shallow weed control before sowing, or for mechanical removal of emerged weeds within hybrid or organic farming regimes. It can also be used for seedbed preparation.

Winged tines 22cm wide, mounted on four bars, achieve close 15cm tine spacing – ensuring all the soil is moved, while leaving space for trash to flow. There is 55cm frame-to-ground clearance and rugged 70 x 12mm frame sections provide rigidity and make the harrow suitable for intensive working. An optional double spring tine mount can be specified for demanding conditions. Precise depth control for shallow operation is ensured by fitting optional front support wheels and a packer or additional support wheels at the rear. Accurate ground contour following can be achieved by using the upper link in its floating position. For seedbed preparation, just using a rear packer provides adequate depth control. A front Crossbar is an option and ensures fine soil is available for the seedbed for reliable seed-to-soil contact. Optional rear harrows are available, including single row, double row and double row with hydraulic angle adjustment which is recommended for situations where plants or weeds have been cut off, but the base and roots remain in the ground. An attachment kit for mounting the MiniDrill will be available later, allowing seeds and seed mixtures to be metered accurately and distributed evenly in front of the packer or rear harrow. A full seed kit with two distributors and tramline valves will also be introduced, with seed supplied by the Partner FT, allowing sowing without a packer in very wet conditions while maintaining the 15cm tine spacing. For 2022, a trailed 5m version will be added. continued over…

Machinery …from previous page

Cultro comes in additional widths New 5, 6 and 9m versions of the Cultro TC have been added, extending the range to five models from 3 to 12m. Ideal for crushing and chopping catch crop populations in spring or autumn, it is also suitable for ultra-shallow stubble cultivations in crops including rape and sunflowers. Key to the Cultro’s effective performance are the small rollers with six double knives in a cross arrangement. The machine’s weight is carried by the rollers which ensures effective cutting and crushing of the plants. Operating speeds up to 20kph achieve high work rates with a low power requirement.

drilling in a wide range of conditions, especially with large flotation tyres. Double support wheels on the seed wings minimise rutting and allow accurate ground contour following. With one row of single disc coulters and spacing at 25cm, the Avatar is ideal for establishment regimes including direct seeding, mulch seeding and drilling into standing crops. A new LED lighting system WorkLight Pro has been introduced for improved working at night.

Popular drill updated The versatile Horsch Pronto 3-6 DC achieves effective seedbed preparation, consolidation and seed placement to successfully establish a wide variety of crops in a range of conditions.

Strip-till range extended Demand from mid-size arable farms has resulted in a 3m version of the Focus TD strip-till cultivator being added to the line-up. Like existing 4 and 6m versions, the new 3m uses TerraGrip tines to loosen soil and remove harvest residues from the seeding area. Fertiliser can be placed at a depth to suit the crop type. Angled discs between the rows can be set to ridge or level the soil. A tyre packer consolidates soil in front of the TurboDisc seeding coulters. Row spacings of 30cm for oilseed rape and row crops, and 15cm for cereals can be achieved and seeds are placed into moist soil free of weeds and harvest residues for optimum establishment.

The Horsch MiniDrill, and TurboEdge or TurboDisc seed coulters are standard equipment, but the MiniDrill with 400 litres capacity can also be added as a third hopper. Seeding coulter options include the TurboDisc for clean soils or the TurboEdge for high residues while also providing fine depth control.

No-till drilling The Avatar 12.25 SD gains new options and upgrades for 2022. Isobus controls provide easier adjustment and additional functions. A new seed hopper with 6,500 litres’ capacity can be specified as a double hopper with a 60/40 split. To increase the available work range for crops such as oilseed rape, a MiniDrill is an option with 400 litres’ capacity, and as well as being used for seed it is suitable for granules or slug pellets. With the seed hopper carried on separate wheels and the seeding units behind, Horsch says the design provides maximum opportunities for

Future versions of the drill gain new 18in packer tyres and will be homologated for 40kph road transport. New, innovative controls include optimisation for Isobus. Additional functions improve handling and make adjustment and monitoring easier for the user, and controls can be set to suit operator preference. Hopper changes include relocation of the fan into the hopper. Raising the mounting position reduces dust and dirt ingress to the metering system. The single hopper is available with an optional increased 4,000-litre capacity allowing coverage of larger areas. Calibration is improved and the cartridge is easily removed to insert the calibration bag. A stop valve has been added, allowing easier rotor replacement when the hopper is full. A RowControl distributor tower is a new option allowing individual row shut-off and improved precision with fewer overlaps or gaps. WorkLight Pro LED lights can be specified for improved night working. Additional options include the MiniDrill which can be used as a third hopper, almost doubling efficiency while drilling oilseed rape by allowing simultaneous fertiliser application. The MiniDrill can also be fitted as a third hopper for seed. With its 400-litre capacity the MiniDrill allows the two larger 2,000- and 3,000-litre chambers of the double hopper to be used for fertiliser. The MiniDrill PPF is also available for microgranules, undersown crop seeding or slug pellets and it comes with a separate fan, a pneumatic system with a separate distributor tower and baffles ahead of every second seed coulter. With PPF fertiliser coulters, TurboDisc seed coulters and baffles, three components can be placed simultaneously at different depths.

Versatile drill The new Versa KR combination power-harrow drill offers the advantages of a drill which will work in almost any conditions with industry-leading control technology. The Versa KR is based on the Kredo power harrow which has 10 rotors for thorough coverage of the 3m working width. The drill is the first from Horsch with mechanical metering. The new

SmartClip metering system offers flexible tramline spacing. Seed row spacing can be adjusted based on 12.5 and 15.0cm, and metering can be adjusted with a stop valve between the spacing wheel and the cam wheel depending on the seed used. Standard hopper capacity is 900 litres, but hopper extensions increase capacity to 1,500 litres. Control is through Isobus, and the control concept is optimised for touch terminals. DuoDisc double-disc coulters have been specially designed for the Versa drill using proven components from TurboDisc seed coulters and ensure exact and even seed placement. Packer options include a tooth packer toller and the trapeze ring roller.

Sprayer updates Leeb VN and VL self-propelled sprayers were designed primarily for farms requiring high clearance and adjustable track width and completed their first working season this year. The VN and VL models are similar apart from their axles and wheel track adjustments. The VN features hydraulic axle width adjustment whereas the VL has manual adjustment. The VN remains under 3m for road transport with track adjustment from 2.25–3.00m, making it the more popular option for Western Europe. BoomControl maintains an exact working height at high operating speeds on flat or slightly undulating terrain and is ideal for high-speed applications on large fields, with capability to withstand strong forces during turns. Weight distribution is close to 50/50 front to rear. CCS Pro continuous cleaning is an option.

Tank capacities of 5,000 or 6,000 litres are available with height adjustment providing clearance up to 2m, and the optional 8,000-litre tank version has 1.6m maximum clearance.

Mounted sprayers added Leeb CS linkage-mounted sprayers are new to the line-up. Active boom control is unique to Horsch in the mounted sprayer market, and CCS Pro is also available. The induction tank and many other features are shared with Horsch trailed sprayers. Accurate application with 25cm nozzle spacing is available and tank capacities are 1,400, 1,800 and 2,200 litres. A coupling triangle and hydraulic driven pump allows quick and convenient hitching to the tractor. All functions are controlled through the Horsch user interface borrowed from Leeb LT/GS trailed sprayers. FG

NEXT GENERATION TINE DRILLS WITH PATENTED SLOT CLOSURE SYSTEM GIVING UNRIVALLED PERFORMANCE IN ALL CONDITIONS

The Triton side-press seed drill stands alone at the cutting edge of versatile crop establishment. For the first time, the farmer is now in control of the drilling programme even in adverse conditions. Patent approve in 2019, the Triton allows crop establishment in all weathers and into all soils, lifting the seeded zone by non-inversion vertical tillage to avoid seed rot and anaerobic seed beds. The Triton places the seed in maximum yielding 16.7cm rows, air and drainage slot running directly beneath every seed. Seed is placed on a ‘seed terrace’ in front of the side-press closing blades. The side-press blades then move the field back across onto the seed, securing it from slugs and leaving a clear passage for the seedling to get to the surface. The Triton gives all the advantages of direct drilling but with the added advantages of top soil aeration and drainage, making Triton drills the low compromise option for farmers used to plough based or cultivated establishment systems.

Alleviating compaction to improve soil health Agriweld offers a number of tools to assist in the fight against compaction – boosting soil health and assisting drainage. The original Mantis front-mounted toolbar (above left) is designed to lift and alleviate compaction, create drainage and promote soil structure. Primarily designed for use in conjunction with a combination drill, the 460mm serrated, straight cutting disc cuts through the top layer of soil and trash, allowing the following leg to pass through without great disruption. Swivel legs mean the tractor can steer while in work, and the innovative IP Protected Snap-Bar shear leg protection is standard on all models. The Mantis acts as a ballast weight on the road and, when the drill is lowered into work, restores balance. Mantis models are available in 3, 4 and 6m working widths. For 2022, Mantis will have an option to convert the toolbar to rear-mounted. Meanwhile, the design of the Prevent Track Eradicator (above right) also fights the compaction caused by tractor tyres or tracks. Allowing for the towing of additional equipment behind the toolbar, such as a drill or disc cultivator, it is intended to remove wheel track compaction. It can also be used to remove tramlines. An optional mini packer roller behind each set of legs can firm down the lifted area and helps to stop water run-off during use in tramlines. The leg, combined with a standard issue GLX type point, drives through the soil at a maximum depth of 300mm. Angled wings on the point lift the soil before it sits back down, causing a shattering effect, breaking up compaction. The Prevent is fitted with Agriweld’s Snap-Bar shear leg protection as standard and is available in a 3m width with four legs, auto reset option and a choice of red or green colourway. FG

Thousands attend dairy industry’s first post-Covid event After 18 months of Covid-19 restrictions, UK Dairy Day returned in September, welcoming more than 7,000 visitors to the one-day event at The International Centre, Telford. It was the first of its kind since March 2020 and brought the industry together for some much-needed face-to-face networking, as well as showcasing the UK’s best dairy cattle. The bustling show will have come as a welcome change for visitors after working and socialising via mostly virtual platforms since the Covid-19 pandemic derailed live events last year. The show saw 170 cattle travelling from as far as Inverness and Cornwall for the National Shows, and attracted 230 exhibitors – with stands selling out in advance – as well as the return of practical demonstrations such as foot trimming, blocking and knife sharpening. Holstein UK CEO and UK Dairy Day event director, Sue Cope, commented: “I am delighted that we were able to host UK Dairy Day after 18 months of uncertainty. I have been overwhelmed with the positive support and reaction from the industry to make the event happen. The pandemic has highlighted the important role dairy farmers have in food production and this event provided the opportunity to network, learn and socialise.”

The seminar programme saw a change this year, introducing industry panels which attracted a record number of attendees and required additional seating for the ‘Future Farming with Climate Change’ discussion. The panels showed a clear focus on the challenges and tensions facing the dairy sector as a result of Covid-19, Brexit and climate change pressures – with sessions on farming without subsidies, and future markets and exports. Speakers highlighted the need for greater collaboration across the sector and playing more on our high standards in the UK in going out to markets – as well as having consistent tools for carbon auditing.

Networking and new products The event saw a wide range of new products on display, giving exhibitors and visitors alike a welcome chance to view products and machinery

Many exhibitors commented that it was positive to be back out talking to customers face-to-face, including Norbrook’s territory manager Rebecca Jessett, who said the team had had good conversations with farmers and vets like. The company was displaying its full dairy range, including the Eprizero and Taurador pour-ons and Spotinor spoton solution – but the focus was on its new transition cow bolus range. The Spread-a-Bale team, displaying the HR and HD machines, had a very busy show and said they are expecting a busy winter. The Horizontal Rotor (HR) spreader head option, introduced this year, extends the spread distance and enables livestock farmers to make further reductions in straw spreading time and labour and straw savings of 30–50%. The HD was designed to facilitate the spreading of high density, compact bales. Both options are available on Spread-a-Bale’s entire M series. Provita launched a new and improved formula for its Hoofsure Endurance footbathing product, which is now 33% faster acting, providing more contact time on the hoof. A scientifically proven proprietary blend of organic acids, essential oils and wetting acids, Endurance has been proven to reduce lameness by 44% compared to Formaldehyde and Copper Sulfate. Among its full range of dairy products, Provita was also keen to discuss Promist, an air purifier for fogging housed livestock, which reduces pH, ammonia and dust levels, and is effective against airborne bacteria. Meanwhile, smaXtec unveiled its unique TruRumi technology which measures rumination inside the reticulum of the dairy cow. The company’s boluses already offered the revolutionary ability to measure inner body temperature, but the additional parameter to measure rumination provides unrivalled precision and accuracy on the number and duration of contractions of the rumen. This allows farmers to improve decision-making in health

and feeding as well as oestrus and calving – detecting problems at an earlier stage. For example, detection of E. coli mastitis is possible up to four days before external symptoms appear. Displaced abomasum can also be reliably detected at an early stage and the system can notify farmers on average 15 hours before calving. It allows animals to be monitored even more closely during the critical period around calving, taking necessary measures as early as possible if complications occur. FG

Innovation. Experience. Strength.

Stepping up your heat detection game The timing of insemination is crucial, as a farm’s financial success depends heavily on the fertility of the herd. Yet it is becoming increasingly difficult to detect heats. smaXtec explains how internal monitoring offers “unparalleled” accuracy in heat and early disease detection. There are several reasons for the increasing difficulty in detecting heats. High-performing cows show fewer and fewer signs of oestrus, and these are often not recognised through visual observation. When the animals are out on pasture, oestrus can hardly be detected visually. In addition, more than 70% of the animals show heat signs during night-time. Therefore, 24/7 monitoring of the animals is essential to determine the onset of heat and subsequently calculate the optimal insemination time. This is where the smaXtec system with automatic and reliable heat detection and early detection of diseases comes into play. While external monitoring devices need to calculate parameters and involve the risk of loss or injury, the smaXtec bolus measures inner body temperature (unique), activity and rumination directly inside the cow’s digestive system maintenance-free, offering unparalleled accuracy and reliable data to detect health problems as early as possible, the company says. The automatic and reliable heat detection by smaXtec is based on the recognition of behavioural changes. These typical changes often only occur for a short period of time and at night. Thanks to continuous monitoring by the smaXtec bolus inside the cows’ reticulum, even the slightest oestrus signs can be detected. Together with the automatically generated recommended insemination time, insemination success and reproduction figures on the farm can be improved significantly. That’s why the early

detection of diseases and improving the overall health of the herd is equally important for the reproduction success on dairy farms. The unique combination of the parameters: inner body temperature, activity, rumination and drinking behaviour by the smaXtec system, allows farmers to draw conclusions about diseases and their severity at the earliest possible stage. Thanks to continuous data collection, smaXtec says it can offer an outstanding early detection system for diseases. As soon as the immune system reacts to germs or stress, the inner body temperature changes noticeably. This allows you to detect diseases such as mastitis up to four days before clinical symptoms become visible. smaXtec’s early detection allows farmers to reduce the risk of serious disease progression and significantly lower the use of medication, especially antibiotics, by up to 70%. Light self-applicated medical treatment is often enough to avoid break-out of the disease all together, protecting the herd, providing milk yield stability and cost savings.

Increased efficiency saves time, labour and straw After deciding to invest in a Spread-a-Bale Mini three winters ago, County Down beef producer Geoffrey Rodgers (pictured) says it’s “one of those pieces of kit I wouldn’t be without”. He explains: “Bedding up time has been reduced over our six-month winter from two hours to 20 minutes a day – a massive labour saving that’s enabled the machine to pay for itself within two years. Added to that, we’re making 30% straw savings worth up to £80 a week.” Geoffrey manages a 30cow pedigree herd of mixed Continentals and 85 sucklers near Ballynahinch and annually makes 400 round barley straw bales. He says the machine is reliable, makes for a safer environment and avoids the need to get in pens to manually shake out straw with a fork.

Spread-a-Bale ®

It also creates minimal dust and eliminates the risk of flying stones. Explaining why he chose the Mini he says: “It was small enough to get inside our various sheds and move around and it could attach to the loading shovel. Furthermore, the machine is able to load the bales straight from the stack.” He says that the machine “consistently delivers” and the farm has reduced daily requirements from two to 1.5 round bales since the machine enables him to manage the amount of straw spread as well as achieve a nice even spread.

Milking focus: The importance of automation Automation technology that is reliable, upgradeable and simple to use is proving to be a big drawcard crucial for the future of dairy farming. This is a space Waikato Milking Systems continues to make advances in to help farmers operate more productive and efficient businesses. The company’s UK sales manager Simon Hoare said: “Dairy automation technology is our big point of difference. And when it comes to technology, it’s about the whole package. “That involves pairing our milking systems, whether it be herringbone or rotary, with the right milking

automation technology best suited for each farm.” Exploring automation technology was timely given the launch of two new schemes under the Farming Investment Fund in autumn. It’s part of Defra’s strategy to raise agricultural productivity in an environmentally sustainable way and it is offering grant support for farmers to invest in new equipment and technology. “Herd sizes continue to grow

and we expect there will be more interest in technology to automate important functions of the milking process,” Mr Hoare added. “There is also more demand for data-driven solutions which can help farmers gain a better picture of how their cows are performing.” Waikato Milking Systems released a new suite of dairy automation technology in 2021. Its TracHQ Software is the driving force behind its CowTRAQ Collars which combine to provide a premium level of monitoring and management tools for each cow’s health, heat detection, herd performance trends and identification. “Adding CowTRAQ Collars to your herd can improve production results, improve cow health and conditions and improve your farm management. You’ll grow a more productive and sustainable herd while increasing labour efficiency and you’ll also learn more about how each cow in your herd is performing.” Mr Hoare said many dairy farmers have started their automation journey with the simple addition of the company’s electronic cup removers, the ECR-S or ECR Plus range, to their herringbone or rotary systems. “Cup removers eliminate one person from the milking process and

we know anything that can reduce labour time is a winner. “Our electronic cup removers can accurately milk out a herd, they can be set to detach at a predetermined time or to automatically release when milk flow lowers. This ensures the cows are not over milked and also protects their teat health.” The plug ‘n’ play feature of the company’s milking systems allows farmers to add individual milking automation technology to suit their operation. “It means you decide what to add to your parlour and it’s as simple as plugging in yield indicators to track milk flow or electronic milk meters for more in-depth insights into milk production. “It’s the best way to ensure you can future proof your milking operation.” FG

Editor Q&A With many potential risks to consider when bringing sheep into a flock, livestock editor Sarah Kidby explores new resources to help farmers work with vets and advisors to better manage the risks of internal and external parasites.

What is the new quarantine guidance? A: Whilst the SCOPS quarantine guide has been available for some time, Gloucestershire sheep farmer and chair of the SCOPS Steering Group Kevin Harrison said in a recent press briefing that it could be “very prescriptive”. With a focus on using products only when needed, experts across the UK sought to improve the available resources. SCOPS has created a six-step guide and calendar for advisors to customise for individual farms, covering roundworm, sheep scab and liver fluke. Three key

aspects are: 1) isolation for animals incoming to the flock (whether bought or coming back from grazing); 2) testing where possible; and 3) choosing the right medicine. Protocols also apply to other diseases such as lameness and ‘iceberg’ diseases, however. Stage one of the guidance is a risk assessment for scab and fluke. Whilst historically, it had to be assumed that scab was present, sheep expert Lesley Stubbings said the blood test from Moredun has been a game-changer, helping to reduce unnecessary treatment. Stage two involves treatment for resistant roundworms (day 0–2) and fluke if necessary. It is assumed in this scenario that fluke are triclabendazole resistant. After treatment, animals remain isolated but, separately from the rest of the flock, go onto pasture that is not ‘clean’ and has had the resident flock on it earlier in the season, to pick up a mixed population of worms. Around day 14 of isolation, tests should be done for scab and to check worm treatments were successful. A liver fluke egg count and coproantigen test can be done 21 days after treatment.

Gold, Silver and Bronze levels remain in the new guidance, and two actives are recommended for a ‘belt and braces’ approach in Gold and Silver, however, newer actives 4AD or 5-S1s can be used on their own. In a low scab situation, after 14 days, it’s recommended to test and treat if necessary. In high-risk situations, the scab treatment can be added to the first round rather than an ELISA test. However, when treating for liver fluke in autumn, test results can be misleading as adult liver fluke eggs may not be seen anyway, Moredun scientist Dr Philip Skuce warned, advising that regular monitoring is important. The guidance will be key all yearround, not only when sheep will be moving up and down the country – Dr Skuce said lots of problems with resistance occur when a farm’s own sheep return from other grazing other land. Ultimately, the new approach aims to direct the use of drugs in a more targeted way to maintain efficacy. For more information on the resources visit: www.scops.org.uk FG

Farm sees significant ROI from mattress upgrade SRUC’s Crichton Royal Farm in Dumfries has seen daily individual yields lift by up to two litres, as well as a reduction in lameness, since upgrading its mattresses. Prior to the upgrade in 2019, the Langhill herd, comprised of 180 pedigree Holstein Friesians, was only just meeting minimum targets for lying time (an average of 10.07hrs/ day) and hock rubs and hair loss were seen through the groups. After 11 years of heavy use, the existing mats had become hard and compacted, prompting farm manager Hugh McClymont to invest in new beds. Wilson Agri’s UK sales manager Charlie Sutcliffe says a complete

overhaul was an unnecessary cost so the company supplied and arranged third party fitting of a 30mm latex foam premium pad on top of the old mat. This was covered with a latex waterproof top. Lying time has since increased by an average of 1.5 hours, and up to two hours in some groups. Mr McClymont described the uplift in yields as “exceptional”, with an average two litre increase since the upgrade. This is generating an additional income of £168/ cow/lactation, or a herd return of £30,240, on an investment of around £16,000. Lameness and lesion scores have also improved, with 28% fewer lameness treatments, further boosting return on investment. SRUC has now tendered from Wilson Agri for another 450 mattress upgrades on its other dairy units. FG

Livestock approach for lameness and significantly reduces incidence of clinical lesions and thus the spread of foot infection across the herd. UK field reports have indicated that foot bathing with Hoofsure Endurance after every milking has reduced lameness problems by 50%. The Hoofsure range also includes Konquest gel to be applied to larger lesions. It has advanced bio-adhesion properties which help the gel stick to the skin and hoof. Combat spray is a unique non-antibiotic spray providing persistent longer-lasting activity. Combat should be used for spot spraying in parlour or during hoof trimming.

Air quality at housing

How to deal with winter housing problems Winter indoor housing is a high-risk period for cattle and can be one of the most stressful times of the entire year. Dr Tom Barragry, veterinary surgeon, pharmacologist and adviser to Provita Animal Health, offers advice on avoiding common and costly health concerns at housing. Animals indoors can be put under stress very easily, causing elevation in blood cortisone levels, which can trigger suppression of the immune system. Stressful changes in temperature, environment, housing and feeding can result in a depression of the immune system which coincides with an increase in the rapid spread of diseases, especially as the cattle will be in a confined space. Lameness, pneumonia, lice, fluke, and worms are common problems associated with winter housing, not simply because of time of year but also because of ventilation, housing, environmental infection pressure, immunity, and other issues. Nutrition may be compromised in some units and fodder, especially silage, may vary in quality, and hence trace element deficiencies are not uncommon.

Lameness It is well established that lameness is a very costly disease. It can predispose not only to ill thrift, and trace element problems, but it is also a ‘gateway disease’, leading to serious infertility and mastitis issues. Indoor problems such as high stocking rates (causing slurry to build up), poor bedding, cubicle design, or slurry

pooling in open yards, can cause foul in the foot or digital dermatitis. Slurry will harbour considerable amounts of microorganisms which will increase the likelihood of infection. Underfoot conditions such as slats, concrete floors, bedding, excessive moisture, slipping, and slurry can precipitate significant outbreaks of lameness. Floors and underfoot surfaces in pens/cubicles must provide adequate grip to reduce injuries from slipping. Rough or uneven surfaces lead to excess wear on hooves, with sole bruising and infection becoming evident. Foot lesions, when they occur, tend to be more severe in housed animals than in grazing animals. Unfortunately, treatment rather than prevention seems to be the focus of many lameness management programmes, but such an approach can be a serious waste of money. Prevention, by using regular footbaths, is the only way forward. If lameness can be put under control before housing, the subsequent financial benefits will be clearly seen throughout the winter period. For effective results, regular foot bathing is essential. Using a safe, effective, proven and ‘green’ product like Hoofsure Endurance is the proper preventive

Winter is a high-risk time for pneumonia infection – the most common cause of death in all cattle above one month old. It inevitably results in poorly performing calves. There are several steps farmers can take to prevent pneumonia, including not only vaccination but also optimisation of ventilation and air quality. A continual flow of fresh air throughout a shed is important, and research has shown that animals perform better in clean air. In well ventilated sheds with clean air, animals are much less likely to develop respiratory infections, because there is less droplet infection and pathogen inhalation. Provita Promist is a unique air purifier containing a blend of

natural organic acids, essential oils and wetting agents which together help control the levels of particulate matter, dust and reduce ammonia in the housing of intensively reared livestock. It can be used when new calves/cattle are introduced into houses, or during still weather conditions with stagnant airflow circulation, or until air flow improves in the shed. Promist can also be used daily in houses that have permanently poor air flow. It should be used above and around the cattle and will purify the air, the surfaces and the animals. Its herb content will provide an expectorant effect helping to expel organisms from the respiratory tract. According to field reports, using Promist daily in the cattle/calf shed for the first month or so after housing, has resulted in beneficial results. “We didn’t have one case of pneumonia to deal with last year and the calves responded in spades regarding the growth rates they achieved,” reported one user. Pneumonia cannot be defeated unless air quality, air circulation and air cleanliness are heightened and maximised. John McClelland from Dungiven, Northern Ireland uses many Provita products on his suckler cow and sheep farm, including Promist to clean and purify the air in his sheds on foggy and clammy days. He has been farming for many years and says he has noticed a great difference since using Promist. FG

New ATV and ROV range unveiled for 2022

Yamaha has launched a new range of all-terrain vehicles (ATVs) and recreational off-road vehicles (ROVs). New special editions of the Kodiak 450 and 700 ATVs are both available with two tone paint work and alloy wheels, whilst the Grizzly ATV can now be specified with exclusive graphics and 27in Zilla Maxxis tyres on 14in cast aluminium wheels. For the first time Yamaha is offering customers the opportunity to specify their own ATV and ROV using a digital configurator. “The configurator enables customers to

personalise a Yamaha product by choosing accessories and paintwork options. Once happy with the specification the customer can request a quotation and share it with a dealer of their choice to source their vehicle,” explains Yamaha ATV manager William Kay. The Yamaha Kodiak 450 ATV features diff lock as standard on all electric power steering (EPS) models and Ultramatic transmission,

throughout the range, which maintains tension on the drive belt to provide a consistent throttle response. The rider is also able to automatically switch between 2-wd, 4-wd and diff lock settings with the push of a button. Yamaha has committed to fitting Warn VRX 25 winches as standard on all Kodiak and Grizzly ATVs. The 15m winch has a 1,134kg pulling capacity and a rocker switch mounted to the handlebar. “We are also one of just two manufacturers offering a tracker free of charge on all new ATVs,” says

Mr Kay. “A Datatool Stealth S5 device will be supplied free of charge with new ATV models to offer farmers safety, security and peace of mind.” Yamaha has kept the unique compact design of its ATVs in the new models to offer farmers machines that are easier to manoeuvre in, and through, tight spaces. “We understand farmers need a stable ATV, but we don’t believe this should come at the cost of versatility. It is important that an ATV can go anywhere, and our streamlined design enables riders to pass through tight gates and operate in small spaces,” says Mr Kay. The new 2022 ROV range includes the Viking three-seater which has a 686cc engine, switchable 2wd/4wd, electric power steering and a tipping cargo bed that can carry loads up to 272kg. “ROVs are an economical way to transport both people and goods around a farm and are growing in popularity,” he explains. The new four seat Wolverine RMAX has a high performance 998cc engine, hydraulically assisted tilting cargo bed and a heavy-duty Warn 2,000kg winch. “The Wolverine is both practical and comfortable and is an excellent tool for a diverse farming operation, especially those that have diversified into farm leisure,” he says.

It’s time for science to take the potato forward The way in which we grow and store potatoes is changing dramatically, but there is no time to be nostalgic. Agrii’s Nick Winmill, a crop scientist with over 35 years’ experience in agronomy, considers some of the changes still to come. Such has been the rate of change in potato production in recent years that I am reminded of the opening line of L.P. Hartley’s first novel, The Go-Between – “The past is a foreign country: they do things differently there” seems incredibly apt for our times. It could, of course, be applied to just about any situation, at any point in history, but given the loss of products in recent years and the way in which technology has the capacity to usher in a new era of production, there could scarcely be a more apt metaphor to describe the rate of change in our industry. For the past few years, discussions have been dominated by the loss of the sprout suppressant, CIPC and the impending withdrawal of the everreliable multi-site fungicide mancozeb.

While the latter may have been given a technical reprieve – at least for those in Great Britain – due to the timing of the European Union’s decision, it is clear that we can no longer count on its long-term availability either as straight or in a mix. The sudden withdrawal of Vydate (oxamyl) at the start of the year only served to add to the sense of despair among growers already reeling from a difficult season in 2020. The uncertainty surrounding the widelyused herbicide metribuzin, which is likely to be withdrawn no later than 2024 as is another nematicide, fosthiazate (as in Nemathorin), further emphasise the rate of change. How we as advisers and in turn, you as growers, respond to the disruption this inflicts on your

business should, of course, be the focus of our thoughts. And it is; and has been for several years. Our research and development trials have considered these issues and more for some time, but finding solutions is only part of the equation: they must also come at a reasonable cost. As a direct replacement for mancozeb, we have been trialling, amongst other substances, potassium phosphonate both as a straight and in mixes with other products. This is not yet on the market and further work is needed to validate its performance, but there is reason to be confident that there are solutions to this conundrum. The uncertainty over the

regulatory status of mancozeb and its market availability in GB has highlighted another issue: what is the extent of early blight (Alternaria spp.) with reduced sensitivity to certain fungicides, how are we to collate this data, and who is going to pay for it? Much of our understanding is based on what is happening across continental Europe with Germany and the low countries of Belgium, Luxembourg and the Netherlands providing most of the information. We know little of the situation in the UK – do we have the strain resistant to boscalid (as in Signum) that is reportedly widespread across Europe, for example? Without accurate data we cannot make informed decisions. Other areas of intense research involve the contribution biological products can make to crop protection. These are undoubtedly part of the future – new authorisations now outnumber those for conventional products – but real-world performance does not always match that claimed. Identifying those that show the greatest promise and finding out how best to exploit it, remains a work-in-progress. One way in which biologicals can make a valid contribution is to preserve the performance of conventional fungicides. Strobilurins, for example, are susceptible to sensitivity shifts but it may be that we can delay this falling efficacy with biological products while staying within FRAC guidelines for application limits. The need to reduce pesticide use will also drive bigger changes. At some point society will need to accept that plant biotechnology is a force for good. The government has recently taken the first step on this path with a public consultation on the role of gene editing such as that enabled by the CRISPR-Cas9 system. This is not biotechnology in the old sense, but the next evolution in plant breeding that has been practised since Gregor Mendel crossed two pea plants to create a line that was superior to its parents. The Covid pandemic has raised everyone’s appreciation for science and its potential to enhance our lives, it’s time to seize this opportunity and bring food production into the new millennium.

Pent-up demand for potato catch-up British Potato events are always an important opportunity to assess new developments first hand.

Phones and emails have been vital to keeping potato businesses moving during the pandemic, but there’s now huge pent-up demand to see new developments first-hand, say organisers for this November’s British Potato Event. “As well as catching up on Participants certainly won’t be technological advances, many disappointed with the range of new also see the event as important things to assess, says show director, for keeping abreast of business Steve Wellbeloved. “The loss of other developments and for striking deals. events over the last 18 months means People have had no choice but to there’s a backlog of product launches, conduct business online, but many so many of these are being scheduled also recognise that better deals are for the event. Plus, there’s an excellent often sealed in person. range of completely new exhibitors “In short, ‘virtual reality’ is all showcasing their products and services FG_BP21_quarter_page_Ad.qxp_Layout 09/09/2021 13:52 Page well1and good, but now many in 1 for the first time.

the industry are keen to drop the ‘virtual’ and concentrate on the ‘reality’,” he says. A sure sign of the strong appetite for the event is that a number of major exhibitors are significantly increasing the size of their stands, demonstrating both their confidence and the number of things they are wanting to discuss with visitors. Among the many industry topics in the spotlight, sustainability is likely to be a common theme, predicts Steve. “The event will be following hot on the heels of the UN’s major COP26 climate summit in Glasgow. Two hundred miles further south in

Harrogate, there won’t be the political posturing and security circus, but there will definitely be a focus on the very practical steps that potato businesses can explore. “All-in-all, there’s so much to see and discuss that we expect to see a continuation of two trends,” he suggests. “Firstly, more and more people opting to stay over and attend both days. And, secondly, more businesses bringing a wider cross section of staff, each of whom concentrates on mini-shows in their own area of expertise, for example crop protection, storage, machinery or marketing.” More information about all aspects of the show and pre-registration to achieve fast, free access is available at www.bp2021.co.uk FG

Scottish grower chooses next generation mobile grader

When East Lothian-based J. Haig Hamilton & Sons decided to upgrade its potato grading operations to ensure the most advanced handling of the company’s valuable 550-acre crop, it chose long-standing manufacturing partner Tong Engineering’s flagship Caretaker mobile grader. Haig Hamilton farms a total of 3,500 acres of land. As well as a highquality crop of potatoes, the family business also farms oilseed rape, winter barley and winter wheat. With the latest equipment advancements including increased automation, upgraded cleaning capabilities, and improved energy efficiency with Tong’s Blue-Inverter all-electric direct drive technology, Haig Hamilton could see that investing in the latest

technologies would bring significant savings in labour, time and costs. “Our old Caretaker from Tong was reaching 11 years old and, whilst it remained very reliable, the new models of the Caretaker have progressed so much,” says Mr Hamilton. “We have been farming for over 30 years and have always dealt with Tong throughout that time. [...] When the time came to upgrade our grader, we knew that Tong would

based in Scotland, changeable weather is usually one of our biggest challenges, [...] but the Tong Auto-Touch HMI control system is extremely advanced and easy to use; at the touch of a button, all adjustments to the cleaner’s settings are completely automatic. Most notably, the automatic high-speed cleaning function is incredible! We can schedule it to take place at set intervals, or in relatively dry conditions [...] we set it to run at the end of each day.” Nick Woodcock, sales manager at Tong Engineering, comments: “[The Hamiltons’] new Caretaker features our most advanced options, and we have even taken their bespoke configuration a step further by designing some additional, unique features which have truly encompassed their most specific requirements. These features include an electric remote-controlled retractable canopy and an in-built water supply for the EasyClean’s spray bars. They have left no stone unturned in specifying a highly advanced machine for the most efficient handling.” FG

deliver the advanced, custom-built solution that we were looking for.” Featuring a high-capacity infeed hopper, the Caretaker grading system specified for Haig Hamilton incorporates an 8-row model of Tong’s EasyClean separator, complete with full Auto-Touch HMI control, for unrivalled cleaning and control in all conditions as well as advanced diagnostics. A 2.4m wide Tong EasyGrade screen grading module carefully grades crop before it passes over a 6-Man LED-lit inspection area and is then gently transferred to boxes via Tong’s Midi EasyFill box filler. “Our new Caretaker is configured exactly to our specification,” explains Mr Hamilton. “[...] When you are specifying the machine, all the options promise to transform operations and efficiency in a variety of ways and now the machine is in operation I can certainly confirm that they really do. “Going from a 4-row cleaner to the 8-row EasyClean means we are now able to double our processing capacity when required, but it’s the automation that is really making all the difference.

Terry Johnson Ltd Automation company becomes BP2021 Gold sponsor Award-winning agricultural machinery automation company Agrimech has been unveiled as one of the top sponsor for this year’s British Potato Event – the unique showcase for the whole of the potato industry. Held every two years, the event offers a networking and business opportunity for all involved in growing, handling, processing and retailing the crop. Agrimech has been involved in the show since 2013 and has now become a Gold sponsor for the first time. The Cambridgeshire-based company will showcase some of its newly developed products at this year’s event at the Yorkshire Event Centre in Harrogate. At the show in 2015, Agrimech unveiled the Nemesis Bag Placer –

an industrial light-duty bag placing system which offers user-friendly controls, trouble-free maintenance and low-cost servicing. Then the Titan Palletising System, suitable for all types of bags, sacks, bales and nets, was launched at the BP show in 2017. And in 2019, the company, founded by Darren and Belinda Smith near Wisbech, celebrated its 10th anniversary at the show. Director Belinda Smith recently commented: “The British Potato Show has always been a key event for us, and we’re proud to offer our support by becoming a Gold sponsor. “At each British Potato Show, we like to launch a new product or share exciting news – and we’ll be doing that again this year.” FG

Range of harvesters on show at BP2021 Standen Engineering has been recently demonstrating a variety of its new equipment – much of which can be seen at BP2021. The Standen T2XS trailed harvester has been well received by customers, the company says. The additional output and fuel savings it offers over the original model, while keeping features such as the ROTO axle, which allows easy opening up of fields with the right-hand-side wheel rotating underneath the machine, make it the most advanced trailed harvester on the market, Standen claims. The

T2XS can be supplied with a cleaning module to suit most crops, and they welcome ‘bespoke’ enquiries. The first AVR Puma 4.0 4-row selfpropelled harvesters have also been sent off, with feedback suggesting crop damage has been less than or similar to that of a trailed machine, with outputs of 650t/30 acres per day being achieved on less than 200 litres of fuel. Standen draws

attention to the fact that all this is with a price tag significantly lower than similar 4-row machines. Standen became a supplier of AVR harvesters and in-store crop handling equipment in July this year and is delighted with the amount of interest shown so far. Both the Standen T2XS harvester and the AVR Puma 4.0 will be on show at the BP2021 event in Harrogate this month.

The company also says it has received a lot of interest in its new VHM crop handling machinery, which was launched in the UK in July. These box stackers and box/bag fillers offer a smart solution to in-store processes and can significantly increase the efficiency of any washing, grading or pack house lines. The first of the Stackr models Standen has supplied are now up and running and are reportedly performing very well, with some big savings being made in terms of labour and forklifts required. Standen has also been demonstrating the capabilities of the Vegniek DiscMaster Haulm puller. In developing this machine, Vegniek has focused on reducing crop damage; a previous issue with other haulmpulling machinery, by ensuring that rows are effectively closed after the pass. Not only has the brand achieved this, but haulm-pulling results in a faster skin set, reduced disease intake and reduced reliance on chemical inputs to achieve haulm removal. Available in 4- and 6-row models, the DiscMaster is lightweight, easy-touse and cost-effective to maintain according to Standen. More information about all of Standen’s machinery can be found on the company’s website. FG

Quality machines and top after-sales service boost UK business

Since launching in the UK, Ploeger has successfully placed in excess of 20 machines throughout the country, recently boosted by having appointed Agricar as its main dealer in the East of Scotland in 2020. Machines are sold from the Ploeger UK base in Fakenham, Norfolk, with local after-sales in Lincolnshire and Angus to ensure customers are supported by local, fully trained personnel to guarantee the best response, in line with customers’ expectations on such machines. The AR-4BX is a four-row bunker

harvester which can be configured for four rows or two beds on the wide body and three or four (75cm) rows on the narrow body. The haulm topper and digging depth are monitored by skids running on top of the rows, with highly accurate proportional hydraulic control maintaining a

constant position. The front axle is track-width adjustable to narrow the machine down for road transport and has a side-shift function to keep the intake in line with the crop rows. The intake operates as four individual rows when digging, with two independently pivoting intake units of two rows each. This flexibility ensures the highest level of accuracy and ensures a consistent digging depth on each row. Moving through the machine, three sieving webs and two haulm rollers take care of the primary cleaning with variable drop height from 1st–2nd web and rubber covered web bars on the 3rd web, ensuring the machine is as gentle on the crop as possible during drier periods of harvesting. After the webs, further cleaning and separation are provided by combinations of axial rollers with bypass option, four or seven roller Soil and Haulm Separator (PSHS) with additional options of rear-mounted pintle-belt or six-man picking table. If six people are not required, there is the option to place two people on top of the machine for

a final inspection on the hopper filling belt. The axial roller option comes in fixed and adjustable configuration whereby the gap between the rollers can be adjusted from the cabin to suit the conditions, but where the fixed axial set is selected a bypass web can be installed to allow the axials to be bypassed entirely when there is no need for this level of cleaning, all from the operator’s touch screen. The PSHS is a versatile cleaner whereby fluted rollers pass the crop through the machine working with smaller rubber or steel clod rollers to extract soil, haulm and stones in a gentle product-friendly manner. The rear-mounted pintle belt with adjustable angle works well to take out remaining haulm and loose soil as well as breaking up the last of the clod before carrying them off the back. When picking-off is required, there is the option of a six-man covered-in picking facility on the rear of the machine to allow removal of the last of the material before loading boxes or bulk with the perfect sample.

Sustainable sprout control Biox-M is a well-established and highly effective treatment to control sprouting in potatoes in store and is in widespread use in the UK and on the continent, on crops destined for both fresh and processing markets. Although approved for use in the UK in 2012, the 2020 harvest season was the first to have seen widespread adoption of Biox-M as the principal product available for sprout control in this country. Many store managers used this product for the first time in 2020/21 and have made great strides in understanding and implementing best practice in store management. The industry has gone into the new season much better prepared and with much greater familiarity than a year ago. Every store is different. That seems obvious, but is hugely relevant when dealing with an unfamiliar product, which behaves very differently to the ‘old chemistry’. Understanding the distribution of the fog and then vapour in store is essential to achieving excellent sprout control. Much has also been learned about the best use of fans to ensure an even distribution in store during application (find and address the

‘dead’ spots in store, and don’t run the fans too fast), and then the appropriate use (but not over-use) of fans to maintain an even distribution of vapour during the closed period. Fans should not be run too fast or too often during the closed period following treatment. The first application of Biox-M should be made when eyes are merely ‘blinking’. There is no advantage in delaying until sprouts are well-established. Getting the fog distribution and air circulation right in store has seen increases in the interval between treatments. Crops treated with spearmint oil were successfully stored through to the end of June. Biox-M comes from a naturallyoccurring perennial crop, spearmint (Mentha spicata), grown in a number of countries around the world – India, China and the US are large exporters. Carbon is sequestered in the crop and in the soil (perennial crops sequester carbon in soil much more

effectively than annual crops). Spearmint oil is extracted by a simple process of steam distillation. To deliver a uniform product with a minimum level of carvone, the oil is blended to produce Biox-M. No synthetic, persistent or harmful chemistry is involved. FG

A summary of Biox-M: • • • • • • • •

A naturally occurring product, in widespread use in the food industry Approved for use on organic potato crops Has no harvest interval or MRL Does not leave persistent residues in the fabric of stores and boxes used for storage and is therefore suitable for use in stores, which may subsequently be used for the storage of other crops or seed potatoes Effective at higher storage temperatures, reducing the risk of acrylamide development on processing Sequesters carbon during growth, removing 1t of CO2 for every 1,000t of potatoes treated Should be a component of the sustainability plan for every farm and every customer Effectively carbon neutral.

East Kent potato grower takes delivery of bespoke mobile grader Monkton Court Farms has become the latest potato grower to receive Haith’s next-generation mobile grading system. Philip Smith, who grows the Desiree and King Edward potato varieties across 60ha in East Kent, recently took delivery of the state-of-theart grader. Philip’s previous grader was purchased in 1999 and had reached the end of its natural life, becoming slow and inaccurate. Monkton Court Farms has used Haith’s equipment since 2016, when a neighbour’s recommendation led Philip to buy two Haith box fillers. Philip was so pleased with how the box fillers performed that he had no hesitation in talking to Ken Hollingworth at Haith when he decided to replace his grader. “The Haith box fillers have never let me down, and I was really impressed with the way the company handled my order and has supported me ever since,” says Philip. “When I decided it was time to replace our mobile grader, I looked at the options available but

as soon as I spoke to Ken I was confident that Haith would build a grader that would meet my requirements. On delivery, I was delighted with the quality of the build. The grader is now in work and doing a great job.” As with the vast majority of Haith’s machines, Philip’s mobile grader has been designed to his precise specifications. The 6.6m long grader, which can handle up to 30t per hour, features a Haith Supaflow bulker that feeds a Haith Evolution MultiSeparator with six spiral shafts and clod roller scrapers to effectively remove soil, clod and haulm. The covered inspection unit on the grader can comfortably accommodate six people, who can work at any time of the day or night thanks to the presence of energy-saving LED lights and in all conditions as the bunker, separator and inspection area are covered. “The new generation of Haith mobile

graders are our most accurate and efficient,” says Ken. “Being mobile, they are incredibly versatile and can be used in the field or packhouse depending on what works for the grower. We were delighted to supply Philip with his box fillers back in 2016 and it is great to hear that the way those machines have worked for Monkton Court Farms gave him the confidence to buy this latest piece of equipment from us.” FG

With some of the newer potato varieties requiring more positive ventilation, there is an increasing demand for such ventilation systems in potato box stores. Until recently, this has required a rollout canvas cover over the suction aisles. While this is an effective solution in terms of air movement, it does come with the increased health and safety risk whereby any personnel carrying out crop inspections could inadvertently step on the canvas and fall into the aisle. As an alternative to the canvas strip, Farm Electronics is now able to offer an Inflatable Air Bag System, which has been used for many years in Holland. This system is combined with a suction duct built round the refrigeration

plant, which has narrow air return doors aligned with the airbags. This forms a 450mm wide suction aisle between two rows of boxes, allowing the air to be sucked back to the cooler through slat-sided boxes. This is just one example of how the partnership between TolsmaGrisnich and Farm Electronics is being utilised, with a hybrid system using a mixture of UK and Dutch equipment. Farm Electronics is now able to offer this system as an option for UK growers, commented Alex Gadsby, engineering sales director for the company. The system offers improved air movement through the potatoes, increased safety, and ease of operation. Contact Farm Electronics for more information. FG

The versatile Dewulf RCA3060 machine working in potatoes.

Optimum crop-friendly harvesting The Dewulf RCA3060 is a self-propelled two-row harvester with a 1.6m wide C-elevator. The C lifting elevator allows the produce to flow ‘up and over’ in a single direction though the harvester, which provides optimal product-friendly transport through to the discharge conveyor. The harvester is equipped with an axial module consisting of 18 rollers. The rotational speed and angle (-20 degrees to +5 degrees) of the axial rollers can be fully adjusted by the operator from the cabin or can be set to automatically adjust as required. The axial module is equipped with an anti-blocking system and a scraper that prevents

build-ups above the gearbox of the axial module. To ensure smooth product flow, smooth transfer rollers have been fitted between the 3rd sieving web and the axial module. If extra cleaning is required, the discharge conveyor can be fitted with an optional Easy-Clean unit, made up of three smooth rollers alternating with deformable

spiral rollers. The waste is removed from the machine by means of a waste belt. If even more intensive cleaning may be required, you can opt for two Easy-Clean units (3 + 3 adjustable in height, direction of rotation and speed) in the discharge conveyor with associated waste belt. With its interchangeable modular

AgVantage UK Ltd Poplar Farm Coates, Peterborough, PE7 2DU

construction, the RCA3060 machine is very versatile. As standard, the harvester is equipped with a ‘Quick Change’ system, therefore it can be used with a wide variety of root crops and can quickly and easily be adapted to suit all conditions. Harvesting kit options consist of diaboloes or half diaboloes, driven cutting discs, onion kit or carrot kit. It only takes around 15 minutes to make the swap. If you’d like to experience the RCA3060 contact AgVantage to organise a demonstration. FG

New two-row offset harvester with unique haulm roller

In addition, a trash web under the haulm web ensures that potatoes that ‘dropped’ late remain in the machine and that any haulm that does fall through the haulm web is removed. After being picked up by the digging unit, the first sieving takes place on the digging web, which has a width of 1.65m. This is fitted with hydraulically powered eccentric vibrators. Then there is the combination of haulm web and sieving web – as these operate so close to one another, the drop height from the digging web to the sieving web has been kept to a minimum. At the transition from the sieving web to the pintle belt, a haulm roller provides additional haulm separation. The haulm roller is easy to adjust in intensity by moving it farther under or away from the sieving web. A potato-friendly

transition is ensured as the haulm roller is followed by a soft pintle belt. On the in-line pintle belt, the potatoes are conveyed to the transversal pintle belt by a triple retaining roller. If desired, the transversal pintle belt can be placed at a greater or lesser angle. Height adjustment from the picking-off table offers the option of quickly adjusting the cleaning capacity. The potatoes are then conveyed into a large seven tonne bunker. The hydraulic bend in the pickingoff table with automatic control provides for a minimal drop height into the bunker. So, what is new about the Spirit 7200? The latest features include: AVR Connect – The 7200 is the first two-row harvester that can be equipped with the AVR Connect option. This allows the user to access machine data online.

The new Spirit 7200 complements the AVR Spirit family with a drawn, two-row offset potato harvester, integrating an additional haulm separation system in the form of a haulm roller just upstream of the in-line pintle belt.

Drawbar – The drawbar is fitted with a frame that neatly conceals all hydraulic equipment and electrical cables to the tractor. Digging unit – The Spirit 7200 is equipped with a quick-change kit as standard. This means that the user can change the digging unit in just a few minutes to allow a different crop to be harvested (e.g. an onion brush). Mechanical and, as an option, hydraulic depth adjustment are available. Haulm web/sieving web – Two rows of three haulm retainers ensure that the potatoes stay neatly inside the machine. Here, attention has been paid to ensuring that there is distance between the rows of retainers and that there is an efficient and robust mechanism in place to fold the frame upwards in the event of accumulations. The haulm and sieving webs are close to one another so that the drop height from the digging web to the sieving web is limited, something that is unique in the market. At the rear of the machine, under the haulm web, is a conveyor that can remove haulm that falls late and that can return potatoes that fall late back into the machine. Picking-off table – The pickingoff table comfortably accommodates six people. For the best ergonomics,

the table has been made as flat as possible. All functions relating to cleaning at the rear of the machine can be operated easily with a clear keypad or mechanical handles. Bunker – The fixed bunker is 9.6m3 in size with a width of 2m and can hold up to seven tonnes (cf. reference to 7200). A shock absorber is also an option – it can be folded hydraulically and transported on top of the machine. Tyres – The Spirit 7200 runs smoothly thanks to the decision to opt for high wheels (30.5 rim). Different sizes are available (in some cases, dependent on the version); 650/65 R 30.5, 850/50 R 30.5, and twin row-crop tyres 380/80 R 38 are available, primarily to help prevent protrusion. The machine is controlled by the Isobus system. This can save on a screen in the tractor, if desired. AVR offers two types of display: Mueller touch 800 and Mueller smart 570. The first two prototypes entered field operation last year and received positive feedback from users. Some 10 new harvesters started operation in the field this year. FG

Company promises a British Potato Event to remember

Visitors to this year’s British Potato Event are likely to make a beeline for Grimme UK’s stand – both for its renowned hospitality and to find out about the latest innovations in machinery. Grimme UK reckons that the 2019 British Potato Event was its busiest ever, with hundreds of visitors enjoying free food and drink as well as being introduced to the company’s latest in-field machinery. And it’s set to repeat its popular hospitality at this year’s event on 24–25th November. As well as having members of its own sales team on-stand, the Gold sponsor will also be joined by sales engineers from Haith Group as part of

the two companies’ strategic working agreement. Grimme’s Varitron 470 four-row self-propelled harvester will be taking centre stage. The Varitron 470 achieves a high degree of manoeuvrability thanks to its pivoting rear axle which can be fitted with tracks or wheels when ordered. The terra trac system gives extreme soil protection in all conditions with very little soil compaction.

HarvestEye is a patented technology that uses a 3D camera and machine learning to count and size all of your potatoes at the point of harvest. When mounted on your harvester, you will have full visibility of how crop performance varies throughout any given field.

Grimme has incorporated several automatic features, including Speedtronic and Visual Protect, which can be controlled from the premium cab. The company will also be introducing visitors to its latest CleanLoader, which is designed to reduce the amount of clod and haulm found in the harvested crop. Fully road-legal, the CleanLoader doesn’t require an external power source to operate, thanks to an on-board 46KW, four-cylinder diesel engine which uses as little as 50 litres of fuel within 12 hours, and can reach 120t/hour. Integral to the CleanLoader is Grimme’s RH24-60 self-emptying receiving hopper, with a volume of 2m3. The hopper automatically feeds onto twin coil units to ensure even and constant crop flow through the machine. The first set of coils separates debris from the soil, with the

second coil unit delivering additional separation or pre-grading of the crop depending upon conditions. As well as the Varitron and CleanLoader, Grimme will also be promoting its range of tillers, destoners and planters. The company will also offer a working demonstration of HarvestEye on-stand. Developed in partnership with B-Hive, HarvestEye effectively samples the crop from the whole field at harvest. The insights allow growers to market their crops more profitably and underpins better planning by looking at the whole field instead of conventional sampling. “We are very excited to be returning to Harrogate in November. It will be great to finally see the potato industry come together in mass and in person,” says Tom Goose, Grimme UK sales manager. “British Potato is one of the highlights of the year for us and we are extremely excited to return to the UK’s number one potato event. In the light of recent events, we’re determined to make sure all guests receive a very warm welcome and make the event one that people remember for a very long time.” FG

Ethylene: Efficient and cost-effective Mathieu Verhaeghe is a potato grower in Boezinge, Belgium. He has been using Restrain (ethylene) as a sprout inhibitor for his stored potatoes since 2020. So why did he choose Restrain?

“We have a mixed cattle and pig farm, where we also grow fresh vegetables – mainly potatoes of the Fontane variety, which we grow for long-term storage,” explains Mathieu. The potatoes then go to the Clarebout factory for processing. “A new sprout inhibitor, for me, had to match the effectiveness of CIPC – low cost, no internal sprouting, suitable for long-term storage and easy-to-use,” Mathieu says.

“Potatoes also needed to be ready to be delivered immediately, with no waiting time. “Our storage facilities did not require any changes in order for us to use Restrain. After signing up with the company, you can follow an online training course which explains how to work with the product, how to control the CO2 and when is best to start. “If I have any questions, I can always speak to our account manager

Wim, who offers support and makes recommendations. He is also more than happy to offer on-site support. “We check the CO2 level and temperature in the warehouse every day. There are only four buttons, so it’s not difficult!” reckons Mathieu. “In potatoes where sprouting occurs, you can see that existing sprouts are being blocked – there is clearly no internal sprouting. The Restrain treatment ensures that the sprouts stay

brittle, so that when the potatoes are unloaded, the sprouts simply break off and are no longer visible. “The quality of the potatoes we’ve delivered so far has been very good – the fry colour has been good and everything is as expected. I would definitely recommend Retrain to my colleagues, because of its cost and ease of use. I am very positive about our decision to use this product,” Mathieu concludes. FG

Back to basics at BP2021

BP2021 is unlikely to be short of innovative technology and theory, but growers are not losing sight of the fundamentals, according to one international supplier of irrigation solutions. Many growers depend on irrigation to ensure crop quality and need to make best use of water resources. Energy costs are also rising, so systems need to be efficient. This means application should be as effective and well managed as possible. In many cases a modern boom is the most suitable method, says Briggs Irrigation. “A simple raingun can be the best way to boost yield, and might be most suitable for awkward areas

– but there is a range of booms to suit most farms,” explains managing director Adrian Colwill. “The high level of uniformity achieved with a boom gives more even establishment and allows better control of water droplet size. This results in less risk of capping and greening. “The lower pressure requirement also means lower energy costs. Reducing running costs and increasing crop quality equals improved profitability,” points out Adrian. Briggs Irrigation will also be exhibiting its JCB engine powered pumps, which can be used for irrigation and reservoir filling duties. FG

Midlands Machinery Show Machinery Preview

Focus on efficiencies at MMS Farm machinery and legislation are ever-evolving, and focusing on efficiencies is more crucial than ever, given the withdrawal of Basic Payments and need for profitability. Visitors to the Midlands Machinery Show on 9–10th November will be given an insight into the latest equipment and advice to help their businesses to adapt and thrive. Featuring hundreds of exhibitors including national manufacturers, distributors and regional dealers, live demonstrations and a packed seminar programme, there will be something for everyone, says show manager Elizabeth Halsall. The Midlands Machinery Show is organised by the Newark & Nottinghamshire Agricultural Society and is a platform for SME and large

agricultural businesses to show their diverse range of machinery and innovation to those who work or have an interest in agriculture. It attracts around 10,000 visitors over two days.

What’s on this year? New this year will be a green power demonstration, featuring the latest electric tractors and telehandlers as well as large machinery and

groundcare demonstrations. Changes to red diesel regulations, new machinery grants and how to work successfully with your contractor are just some of the topics being covered in a seminar with the National Association of Agricultural Contractors. Such discussions are particularly relevant as over 90% of farmers use contractors, says the association’s Jill Hewitt. Other topics in the seminar programme include how to optimise machinery sharing, succession planning and rainwater harvesting. There will also be a focus on the environment, with a range of technical topics from carbon audits to steps towards net zero. However, climate change does bring challenges – and increasingly uncertain weather patterns have directed arable farmers’ attention to optimising grain quality post-harvest to maximise returns. There is lots of new technology on the market to improve efficiencies, speed throughput and protect grain, which will be on display at the show.

Midlands Machinery Show Preview Stirring, drying silo brings added benefits to Suffolk farm

Increased accuracy and extension of Isobus options for spreaders For the 2022 season, Section Control Dynamic available across the KRM range of M-Line fertiliser spreaders is being extended to offer 80 sections. This is a doubling from the current 40-section system and will allow greater flexibility for remaining short work areas – particularly long, narrow residual widths. This development will optimise the quantity spread and the evenness of application, which represents a saving in fertiliser and an improvement in crop performance. The in-house test facilities have been invaluable in the development of Section Control Dynamic, KRM says. The 3D test facility is particularly beneficial

in research and development work, as all aspects of the spread pattern can be scrutinised; whilst the 2D facility mirrors real life and is essential for validating results. It is used to produce the wide range of spreader settings which can be found online or via the mobile app. Isobus options now extend further across the range with the option to have both weigh cell and non-weigh cell machines; with Isobus across the whole spreader range. As you’d expect, the new system for non-weigh cell machines meets the Isobus 11783 standard and allows users not requiring weigh cell technology on the spreader to benefit from the capabilities of the Isobus systems on their tractor. FG

Suffolk arable farmers and free-range egg producers, J.W. Brown & Sons, installed a new Sukup 705t capacity stirring drying silo for harvest 2021 – supplied through Suffolk dealer, Allfarm Installations. Daniel Brown of J.W. Brown explains: “We had already invested in an on-farm mill and mix system to feed our 44,000-bird free range flock and make better use of home-grown grain, however, when doing this we also lost 400t of grain storage within the building. “With limited grain drying and storage facilities, we wanted to avoid having to sell grain off-farm at harvest, to then buy it back in again as feed later in the year at higher prices. Our aim was to better control commodity price fluctuations by storing and

feeding more of our home-grown grain on-farm. “The silo is well-suited to automation of the supply of grain to the mill and mix, eliminating the need for a telehandler and operator, which would be required with a building floor store system, bringing further cost savings.” The Sukup system increases airflow through the grain when drying and mixes all the grain within the silo to a totally homogenous and consistent product for the mill, and further simplifies the process of achieving a consistent ration. It also offers tax advantages over buildings. Sukup Europe will exhibit its silo drying systems at the Midlands Machinery Show. FG

Midlands Machinery Show Preview New bale packer “a big success” Arcusin UK Ltd is celebrating the success of the new Arcusin Multipack D14 machine, which will be exhibited at this year’s Midlands Machinery Show in November, in the George Stephenson Exhibition Hall. This machine now offers the new fast bale pickup with a quicker throughput, thus increasing the output of packs per hour. The pickup is now located on the right-hand side of the machine, with an improved ability to turn bales when entering the machine if not correctly presented to the pickup.

Grain driers: A wise investment

The machine can handle all bale lengths of between 75–120cm and can handle bales from any baler possibly with different bale widths. The machine only requires a small tractor of a minimum of 80hp to run it and is fully automated and selfcontained with its own oil tank, pump and multiplier. The Multipack D14 machine is easy to operate and can follow more than one baler, Arcusin says. It is ideally suited to any small or awkward-shaped fields and can easily be moved between fields and on narrow lanes. FG

Climate change is not going away, and if harvest 2021 was anything to go by, a grain drier could be a wise investment, says Andrew Head, MD of BDC Systems Ltd. With farmers having to combine, often in far from perfect conditions, moisture content (mc) was above the ideal and drying was essential. Farmers who had invested in a continuous mixed flow drier achieved a return on their investment. Those without adequate drying facilities struggled to get grain dry and in tip-top condition. The Svegma continuous mixed flow drier is a key weapon in BDC Systems Ltd’s armoury of complete grain handling solutions. Developed using cutting-edge technology and manufactured from heavy gauge galvanised steel sheet, delivering long life and durability, Svegma driers have an industry-leading reputation for outstanding quality and efficiency and are used extensively by farmers, farming co-operatives, commercial plant operators and maltsters, the company claims. The first Svegma drier was

installed in the UK 38 years ago and there are now over 1,000 installations, all helping to stop farmers from losing sleep over wet grain. The BDC team will be talking to farmers at the Midlands Machinery Show about the company’s complete range of grain handling, drying, cleaning, storage, ventilation, milling and mixing solutions – to ensure that your grain handling facilities deliver exactly what you need. At the Show you’ll find BDC at Stand 3, Lady Eastwood Centre. FG

Materials Handlers

There is a choice of 18 models in the Manitou MLT telescopic loader range.

Power on the land The topic for this month’s Power on the Land is lifting, loading and stacking, brought to you as always by Mike Williams. Materials handling is a major part of the workload on many farms, and it is easy to under-estimate the amount of time spent each year dealing with the lifting, loading and stacking jobs. The work is often repetitive, with potatoes, straw bales and other bulky items often being handled several times; starting in the harvest field and followed by movement into and out of store. The huge increase in the popularity of big bales, both round and rectangular, has been helped by the development of telescopic loaders which are now almost standard equipment on farms handling large numbers of hay, straw and silage bales. Generous lift height is an important factor for stacking bales efficiently, and in the Merlo range the maximum on some models is up to 8.86m. Multifarmer series loaders from Merlo can also offer extra versatility by combining telehandler and tractor features in the same machine. This is a concept that Merlo pioneered, and Multifarmer models can include a mechanical PTO that can be used with a three-point linkage to powermounted machinery, some models are available with cab suspension, a self-levelling system provides tilt correction on an uneven surface, and a trailer hitch is included. For its entry-level model, Merlo

offers compact dimensions and a simplified specification. The P27.6 Plus loader has a 2m access width, the power unit is a 75hp Kohler engine and the lift capacity is 2.7t with a 5.9m lift height. With 18 models available in its MLT telehandler range, Manitou offers plenty of choice to suit a wide range of requirements. The company, which is based in France, has been making handling equipment since 1958 and its machines are now internationally available from a product list that includes handling equipment for construction and other industries, as well as agriculture. An indication of its success is the fact that the total number of Manitou machine sales reached the 500,000 mark in 2015. Manitou’s MLT series agricultural telehandlers start with the Kubota powered M420-60H model with 2t lift capacity. The specification includes a 4.35m maximum lift height, the outreach limit – particularly useful for bale handling – is 2.65m, the power output is 57hp and all four wheels are powered and steered. The MLT 1041-145 is in the high-performance sector with a 141hp Yanmar engine providing up to 9.65m lift height and 6.5m outreach. The Manitou agricultural range also includes a comprehensive list of attachments

that features a yard sweeper and high-pressure washers as well as materials handlers. The Kramer series of wheel loaders and telehandlers includes smaller models for materials handling work in buildings and yards where space is restricted. This is often the case on farms where livestock are in traditional buildings designed originally for hand labour with a wheelbarrow, and lacking space or headroom for full-sized load handling equipment. Kramer diesel models start with the KT276 powered by a 75hp Kohler engine, and Deutz power units are used on mid-range and large models. Some of the telehandlers can be supplied with a low roofed cab option, reducing the overall height to 2.31m with the boom lowered,

and this can be further reduced to 2.26m by using low profile tyres. Kramer attracted headlines five years ago when it introduced a telehandler with battery-powered electric motors instead of a diesel engine. Its current range includes the 5055e model with two electric motors, one for the transmission and the other powering the hydraulic system. Power output is 20hp, suitable for working with a 0.65m3 bucket, and freedom from engine noise and exhaust emissions are attractions. Charging the battery takes up to eight hours and provides power for up to four hours of work. Schaffer loaders are in three ranges, starting with the Compact series with engines from 20–66hp providing 1.2–2.3t lift capacities continued over…

The Multifarmer telehandler range from Merlo starts with the 75hp P27.6 model with 5.9m maximum lift height.

and with 3.25m maximum lift height. Engine power increases to between 51–75hp for Schaffer wheel loaders with up to 3.3t lift capacity and 3.45m maximum lift height for the top model. Telescopic wheeled loaders are the third Schaffer category with Deutz and Kubota engines delivering up to 204hp and the top model lifts 5.3t to 6.1m. Recent arrivals from Schaffer include their compact series 2630SLT loader designed to work where space is restricted. The overall width is only 1.02m, the minimum height of the loader is 1.95m, the lift height is up to 2.88m and the maximum tipping

load is 1.7t. A three-cylinder Kubota engine provides 25hp output and the options list includes either a basic utility cab or a full cab specification. Extra power and performance are available in Schaffer’s telescopic loader category, and an example is the mid-range 8620T model available with up to 136hp from a Deutz engine. The maximum lift capacity is 7.95t with a 5.2m height limit. An important factor in materials handling work is the design of the loader attachments, and the Gloucestershire-based Albutt company is a specialist manufacturer of handling

attachments used for forestry, waste handling and the construction industry, as well as farming. A special design feature of the Albutt range is the extensive use of Domex and Hardox high tensile steels to provide a longer working life with good reliability. One of the biggest Albutt successes is block cutters, and sales manager Dan Cross says it was their Shear Grab that originally pioneered the use of Hardox steel tines for silage block cutting. Their current Shear Grab range includes high-capacity models developed for large scale users, and these are made mainly from high tensile

steel. Another important Albutt innovation was a buckrake with a push-off mechanism; an idea that has become almost standard equipment on new buckrakes, and is now an established export success for Albutt with shipments as far afield as Japan and New Zealand. This year’s new innovation is the Folding Buckrake, consisting of an Albutt Buckrake equipped with the company’s Folding Forks. Suitable for large wheeled loaders working on silage clamps, the Folding Buckrake is available for next year’s silage season, and Mr Cross described the level of advance orders as “unprecedented”.

New generation of telescopic loaders launched Bobcat is launching its new generation R-Series telescopic loader range for agriculture, providing a choice of seven models with Stage 5 engines. The new telescopic loaders cover maximum lifting capacities between 2.6–4.3t, with lifting heights from 6–8m. This is the latest phase in Bobcat’s revolutionary ‘Next is Now’ programme. The range comprises compact models (TL26.60, TL30.60 and TL30.70) and large models (TL35.70, TL34.65HF, TL38.70HF and TL43.80HF). Bobcat is aiming to double the production of its telescopic loaders by 2025.

Premium workspace and experience A new cab design offers high quality, contemporary interiors featuring stand-out branding, colours and textures. All surfaces are optimised for increased space and visibility and the backlit controls are within easy reach and quickly identified thanks to colour coding. Special attention has been paid to storage spaces. The refrigerated or heated isothermal compartment makes a full day’s work more enjoyable and general soundproofing has been worked on, reducing noise levels in the cab by half. A new Grammer Maximo Dynamic air suspension seat with heating, featuring a suspended armrest with joystick, provides an outstanding ride and high operating comfort, Bobcat reckons. The LCD colour display provides interactive and streamlined information and is available with a larger 7in touchscreen with builtin radio and a phone page for dialling contacts instantly. The feed from the rear camera is visible on the display as soon as reverse gear is engaged, and the right-hand side electric mirror can also be quickly adjusted from the cab. A full LED light pack gives 360-degree visibility. The new multifunctional joystick enables faster operations. The FNR button located at the back of the joystick is easily controlled using the index finger, allowing operators to use their thumb to actuate the usual boom and auxiliary functions and new smart functions such as the auto grab, bucket-shaking feature, boom float and speed shifting system. R-Series loaders feature a new engine hood with a steeper profile that increases visibility

and reduces blind spots by 15% on the righthand-side of the machines, providing excellent unobstructed visibility from the cab.

Increased efficiency and productivity High visibility from the cab is optimised with 360-degree LED work lights, the best-in-class boom speeds and powerful transmission and automated boom movements, allowing farmers to complete work more efficiently and in less time. R-Series loaders also offer a range of new and proven operating functions: Job Manager, two drive modes, flex drive control and automated boom functions. The Job Manager allows operators to save and recall custom settings for different attachments or applications to quickly work with the best machine settings. To fully exploit the loader’s high productivity, operators can quickly shift from smooth drive to Dynamic drive where more rapid machine performance is required, with faster forward and backward shifting and more rapid acceleration and deceleration phases. Flex Drive mode uses the hand throttle to bring a new dimension to driving the telehandler, with forward speed managed independently from engine speed with the right pedal and no need to play with the left

inching pedal in the approach phase. A new fourth mode called ‘semi-crab’ allows operators to keep rear wheels in a desired position and steer the machine with the front wheels. This simplifies cleaning alongside the walls of animal stalls and when working on silage piles. New automated boom functions include: • Max lift angle: Operators set the desired max boom angle to limit the working area at height, helping to prevent collisions when working in low-ceiling buildings • Return to ground: Operators set the desired work position (angle of the boom retracted). As the boom is lowered, it self-retracts and stops when the memorised position is reached. This allows operators to start working more quickly and avoids damaging the ground or attachment • Auto grab: There is no need for operators to keep their thumb on the roller to open or close the grapple bucket or any kind of clamp attachment. Instead, they over-press the roller and the action is carried out automatically Bobcat has retained its signature box-welded frame design, with steel plate protection at the base of the machine. This design protects the transmission and hydraulics, and the machine’s very low centre of gravity ensures exceptional work stability. Thanks to the combination of well-balanced machines, a low centre of gravity, a heavy counterweight and a long wheelbase, the loaders can handle heavy loads at any height, easily and safely. Access to the engine compartment has been improved, enabling easier maintenance. Under the hood, R-Series loaders are powered by new upgraded versions of the Bobcat D34 Stage 5 engine, utilising DPF after-treatment, which is automatically regenerated with no impact on performance and no disturbance for operators. The new range is available with a choice of four different AGRI finishing levels. The new AGRI 4 Star pack is equipped with all the new comfort and productivity equipment of this new generation of machines. It targets the most demanding farmers and aspires to build a brand image of “excellence in farming machinery”, Bobcat says. The R-Series comes with a three-year/3,000hour warranty on the entire machine as standard from the factory, extendable to five years/5,000 hours. Bobcat is the only manufacturer to provide a three-year warranty as standard. To watch a product video introduction, visit: https://youtu.be/5kdqyfwNi-Q FG

Weighing up the challenges currently facing UK farming Climate change, an environmental crisis, Brexit implications and recovering from a global pandemic – there’s no lack of challenges and pressures for UK farmers. There’s also a growing need for farmers to be as productive and efficient as possible, to produce more with less, and to do it all in line with various legislations. Technology is transforming the agriculture industry and addressing these challenges, and weighing solutions are high on the list of those having a big positive impact on the day-to-day lives of farmers. Accurate weighing is more important than ever to ensure every penny is earned. Whether it’s check-weighing livestock feed to avoid penalties or providing on-recipe mix, the industry margins are getting thinner. Weighing solutions, such as Topcon’s Weighlog a10, enable farmers to save different customer requirements and mixes, to assist with feed mixing and grain handling to make day-

to-day management and order fulfilment simple and accurate. By automatically storing load data, systems like these enable precise record keeping and traceability to improve yield tracking and farm performance. Some solutions like this are also very versatile; adaptable to various attachments like buckets, forks and spears, enabling farmers to use one technology for all requirements, saving time and energy. Taking steps to improve productivity shouldn’t sacrifice safety, so technological advances, such as overload alarms, are critical. There are many considerations for farmers under increasing amounts of pressure, but technology can hold the key to improvements across the farm and business. FG

DON’T SETTLE FOR SECOND BEST Quality service meets quality brand SAS Agri joined the green network of Merlo dealers earlier this year and offers both sales and service from its family farm on the beautiful Norfolk coast. Richard Gay and Emma Davey run the business with agricultural engineer Tim Austin, who has been working with Merlo machines for the last 10 years and is a specialist in the area. Dameon Layt joined SAS Agri earlier this year as sales manager. Dameon has been working in agricultural sales for the last 11 years and has vast experience in both arable and livestock farming. Together, their goal is to match the right machine to the right customer and to offer the excellent service that the customer deserves – and that Merlo, as a global brand, expects.

SAS Agri has in stock and ready for demonstration the Merlo TurboFarmer 42.7 145. This model offers a lift height of 7.1m and a maximum capacity of 4.2t, with ground clearance of 460mm – making it the perfect mix of safety, efficiency, technology and performance. Including the Deutz Tier V 143hp engine and with the widest cab on the market, this makes the Merlo an extremely comfortable and practical workspace. Merlo telehandlers are developed to be the most compact and lightweight on the market, SAS Agri says, with excellent manoeuvrability ensured by the 4-wheel steering system guaranteeing the maximum steering angle for tight spaces.

Avoid costly mistakes with fertiliser and seed The Ceres Bag Buddy makes precise manoeuvering of big bags simple and safe for machinery, environment and personnel, Ceres Machinery says. Owing to the overwhelming response to the Bag Buddy, Ceres has launched its new Hydraulic Adjustable Bag Buddy 4H, which is designed to carry 4 x 600kg or 2 x

1,000kg bags, allowing the carrying arms to be quickly and easily positioned from the safety of the cab, to accommodate varying sizes and placement of bags.

The Ceres Bag Buddy is a range of Big Bag Lifters from 1 x 600kg up to 6 x 1,000kg bags, with the most popular being the 4 x 600kg. The Bag Buddy is a convenient and easy way to controllably manage fertiliser, seed and feed bags, far more safely than the questionable use of pallet tines, decreasing the risk of damage – not only to

hoppers and coulters, but also to lorries, buildings and overhead cables. It is designed with minimal sharp edges to prevent damage to the bags and reduce the risk of hazardous and costly mishaps. The lightweight, but substantially braced, frame helps support bags from behind, greatly reducing swing. Increased telehandler stability is also achieved by keeping the headstock and boom approximately 4ft lower than if using pallet tines – thus lowering the centre of gravity, whilst still achieving the same lift, with the added benefit of increased reach over hoppers and around drill coulters. The Bag Buddy comes with retaining loops at both ends of each arm, so bags can be quickly secured for transport and in adverse weather conditions. The entire frame is painted in the bright Ceres orange for increased visibility for vehicles around you and ease of use in dark buildings. The Bag Buddy comes delivered ready to go straight to work, with the correct brackets to fit onto your machine. FG

Impressive sales ahead of winter feed season Materials handling specialist Albutt Attachments has reported continued increased sales of its best-selling shear grab range. The firm, based in Tewkesbury UK, states that, once again, over 500 units have been sold to its dealerships for the upcoming winter feed season. The Shear Grab range, manufactured at the company’s second factory in Evesham UK, is also Albutt’s most popular export attachment. This is testament to the design and build quality according to the company’s sales manager, Dan Cross. “Repeat orders and support from our excellent dealership network is proof of the trust in the product. Each shear grab in our range features Hardox teeth

and blades as standard and larger models all have the choice of Hardox tines for greater working life and less maintenance.” Albutt also states its larger Shear Grab models – the Shear King and Shear King Mini – are seeing an increase in unit sales too. The larger models, with sizes from 1.4–2.5m3, are manufactured from predominantly high tensile steel, and are manufactured to withstand the forces put upon them by more intense users and larger machines. With stocking dealerships the length and breadth of the UK, Albutt is keen to emphasise that whilst order levels are high, units will be available, with dealers close to most users. FG

Farmers looking to benefit from modern, reliable machinery without having to outlay big capital expenditure are increasingly turning to hire companies. Small margins and tightening budgets have long been a concern, but in these troubled times when farmers are working to feed a country in crisis, reliable machinery and value for money have never been more important. SW Hire founder Simon Williams says the company is seeing lots of long-term contract hires of telehanders and tractors, as farmers seek to access the latest technology and machinery, whilst spreading the cost over a period of time. An added bonus is that servicing is included in the company’s prices, so farmers can focus on their core business, without worrying about machinery maintenance, or whether older, unreliable machines can do the job when

FARMERS GUIDE 25 YEARS AGO

NE ED

Items for sale in the vintage section of the November 1996 Farmers Guide Yellow Pages included a hand-operated chaff cutter, a mangold cutter and a set of old wooden weighing scales with a price of £150 for the lot. A 1958 International B250 tractor in exceptional condition, which would suit a rally enthusiast, had a £700 price tag and a Cambridgeshire farmer offered a Cook straw elevator in good condition for £200. An item on potatoes in the November issue reported that Maris Piper was the most important

The Caterpillar Tractor Company was formed in Illinois when the Best Tractor Co and the Holt Tractor Co merged in 1925. The Best Tractor Co had already registered the Caterpillar name, and the Caterpillar Twenty with a 25hp petrol engine and a three forward and one reverse gearbox, made between 1927 and 1933, was one of its more successful early crawler tractors. The first Caterpillar tractors arrived in the UK in 1913 and, by the mid-1930s, Jack Olding at Hatfield, H Leverton & Son at Spalding and L.O Tractors at Cooper Angus in Scotland were importing a range of Caterpillar tractors which included the 30hp D2 along with the more powerful D4, D6 and D8 diesel-engined crawlers. The diesel-engined D2 announced in 1938 was made for the next 20 years. The Caterpillar R2, a gasoline-engined version of the D2, had appeared in 1933 but was only made for a few years. The D2 had a four-cylinder, four stroke water cooled diesel engine, a five speed gearbox and the option of 40 or 50in track widths. The engine was started with a two-cylinder petrol donkey engine or optional 24V electric starting system. A 1947 farming magazine reported that an improved D2 had a new 32hp diesel engine which developed 32 drawbar hp compared with 25 drawbar hp for

variety, representing almost a quarter of all 1996 UK main crop plantings with an area of over 6,000ha – more than the next largest planting of Estima. The sugar beet harvest was in top gear in November, when British Sugar predicted an about average yield of around 1.25 million tonnes of sugar during the campaign which started in September. Ernest Cozens’ Out & About page noted that a record acreage of cereals was predicted for 1997 and it was suggested that, with good weather, yields would be up by 9% to 2.19 tonnes per acre. He was also pleased to report that the forthcoming Smithfield Show, now a biennial event, was returning to Earls Court in November and would be an event not to be missed. In Farm Machinery News, Ron Knight was pleased with the new shape of disc on his Quivogne disc harrow which had done a good job of incorporating the straw and making a good seedbed. A Norfolk farmer had become one of the first owners of the new JCB Fastrac Quadronic – the first ever fully suspended four-wheel drive tractor with a load-carrying platform which would be used on the farm with a Landquip sprayer and later for harvesting sugar beet. Vogel & Noot had added a high capacity, semi-mounted, articulated reversible plough to its range. The new Hercules plough could have between six and nine furrows

and needed tractors of up to 240hp. Kverneland announced a new generation of power harrows with improved tine carriers which would prevent stones jamming between the rotors, and the latest universal linkage made them suitable for combination with all types of drill. Kverneland’s Alan Jones explained that the company’s power harrow range was suitable for every soil type and for tractors from 70–250hp. Bomford Turner announced a new range of rotary slashers suitable for cutting growth up to 1in thick, and Stanhay Webb introduced a vacuum-operated precision drill for maize and other large seeds. An advertisement in Farm Machinery News offered four models of Zetor tractor ranging from the 60hp four-wheel drive Uri 4340 for £11,950 to the 84hp four-wheel drive Uri 7340 with a £14,600 price tag. Tractor registrations were up for the period January–June 1996. There was a decline in models under 100hp, while sales of tractors over 120hp plus had increased by more than 22%. Special features for November included one on farm trailers. Richard Western’s Suffolk range had models from 2.5–24t both for the standard speeds and high speeds of up to 100kph. Brian Legg Trailers celebrated 30 years in business and a new ‘Wire Watcher’ device warned drivers of the proximity of high overhead cables when using a high tip trailer. FG

THE CATERPILLAR D2

The 30hp D2 was the smallest Caterpillar crawler tractor in the 1930s.

the earlier model. It noted that the new model could plough about 1.5 acres per hour with a four-furrow plough. The world of the crawler tractor changed forever in 1989, when Caterpillar introduced the Challenger 65 to UK farmers. This new

high-speed crawler tractor had rubber tracks, a 270hp diesel engine, 10 forward and two reverse gears and a top speed of 18mph. There were six models of the Caterpillar Challenger in 1996, with engines ranging from 212–330hp. FG
