Later this month Farmers Guide will be exhibiting at the Cereals event which takes place at Boothby Graffoe, near Lincoln on the 10th and 11th June. Cereals is one of the best technical events in the arable farmer’s calendar – a range of new and updated machines from some of the best-known manufacturers will be on show; a mass of variety plots in which to ponder and plan for the autumn ahead; and all the agronomic advice a farmer could wish for! We know it can be a long day (or two) trying to fit so much in, so we are offering all our readers and advertisers the opportunity to drop in on our stand for a cool and refreshing glass of

Growing stronger
And finally…
A warm welcome to all our new farmer readers that have signed up free of charge to receive Farmers Guide over the past few months. The great news is that as well as strengthening the number of readers in our core arable and mixed farming areas of England, the magazine is advancing further north as well as into Scotland – and with rave reviews! Having attended, and reported on, dealer open days in Cumbria and the Borders recently (see the April edition as well as page 52 of this issue), feedback from farmers in these areas, mostly mixed and livestock farms, has been very encouraging, and we’ll continue to carry editorial and advertising to help enhance their businesses.
An old farmer is lying in bed in hospital, wearing an oxygen mask over his mouth and nose. A young student nurse appears and gives him a partial sponge bath. “Nurse,” he mumbles from behind the mask, “are my testicles black?” Embarrassed, the young nurse replies: “I don’t know, Sir. I’m only here to wash your upper body and feet.” He struggles to ask again: “Nurse, please check for me. Are my testicles black?” Concerned that he might elevate his blood pressure and heart rate from worrying about his testicles, she overcomes her embarrassment and pulls back the covers. She

raises his gown, holds his manhood in one hand and his testicles gently in the other. She looks very closely and says: “There’s nothing wrong with them, Sir. They look fine.” The man slowly pulls off his oxygen mask, smiles at her, and says very slowly: “Thank you very much. That was wonderful. Now listen very, very carefully ARE…MY…TEST…RESULTS…BACK?” Thanks to long-time joke provider Chris Keeble for this month’s joke. Do you have a joke to share? A Farmers Guide boot bag will be sent out to anyone who gets one published in the magazine. Please send to: dominic@ farmersguide.co.uk. ■

We are moving into the agricultural show season as I write this copy for the June edition and one wonders what the main topics of conversation will be. I have no doubt that current grain prices will be popular, alongside continuing talk about milk prices, black-grass problems and of course new season fertiliser prices. There may be those that will speak about our EU membership and a new subject for discussion will be the development of drone “fly over” techniques for agricultural management. However, no topic will prevent farmers from talking about new machinery as it is normally the closest thing to most of their hearts alongside the weather! In fact the weather has given us a good spring period which has continued through May with excellent growing conditions. Talking to a large farming company director recently our primary discussion points were the England squad for the Rugby World Cup and the dangers of leaving out Abendanon and Armitage together with views on the grain market which he believed, at today’s values, was in the most parlous state since the early 1990s. On both counts I tend to agree with him but I can see both sides of the rugby story and believe that the view of Lancaster and Premiership rugby is correct. It would be a bad long-term decision for the English game to bring in foreign-based players to the England squad. On grain, however, based on prices where they are today, there is no doubt that UK growers cannot make money and this puts many arable farms on the same financial loss basis as dairy farms. This is a parlous state for UK agriculture only possibly saved by the value of land as a way out. But hey – there is always the chance of a change with El Niño about!
Grain Gossip The wheat price has really been down over the past month but has now recovered a little. May feed wheat is back to around £106/t ex-farm with November £115/t and harvest feed £110/t. When I wrote last month we were at £115/t ex-farm for May/June and £120/t for November. Since then we have been down as low as £103/t ex-farm for the spot market. Defra has recently estimated that the UK has 6.4mt in stock, either on farm or with merchants. This is the highest level of stock since 2008. Initially low prices have been fundamentally based on the election result, which has strengthened sterling. However, now officially recognised and accepted, El Niño is predicted to be developing. There has been significant rain on the USA grain states on the southern plains which has delayed planting. Very hot weather across Southern Europe and Eastern Europe means that dry conditions are imminent and this is also helping to firm prices. As the El Niño effect spreads across the world, we shall see progressive price change on the world market. Therefore my view is not to panic yet! I think that prices could creep back up as we go forward, and I certainly hope that they do. UK feed

barley prices are up to £10/t behind wheat and there is little or no spot demand. Interestingly, with UK barley plantings down, it is probable that there will be a harvest feed barley shortage this season. What this may do to the malting market remains to be seen. As many of you will realise my history includes time with Muntons and being a shareholder I recently attended the AGM. Its progress to a £100m turnover in the last financial year was in no small way due to expansion into the Asian market where it has recently embarked on a joint venture with a distribution company called Jebsen & Jessen, to build a new plant in Thailand which will process liquid malt to powder malt. The plant will produce premium speciality malted ingredients for the food and beverage industries. Malt is incorporated into a wide range of malt drinks which are highly popular in Asian countries. This expansion of the Muntons Malted Ingredients division ensures its on-going success. Muntons has also recently spent over £5m on a recently commissioned anaerobic digester on the Stowmarket site here in Suffolk. This investment will allow the company to treat waste material on site that has previously been tankered away at significant expense. The plant will produce methane which will be used to generate electricity for use on-site and the bi-product will be green compost that local farmers will be able to use on land. It will also reduce the carbon footprint of the company. May my shares continue to support my retirement years!
Fertiliser Fragments GrowHow and Yara have announced new season fertiliser prices commencing with June delivery. Nitram sets the base prices initially at £235/t to farm for June cash delivery with Double Top £5/t more, and prices rising £3/month for July and August. With the current strength of sterling I

think imported ammonium nitrate prices could be quite a lot better than this. Indications are below £220/t at this time. Current best price granular urea is offered forward for autumn delivery with December payment at £250/t on farm. These prices are all fairly new in the field and it may pay to wait a week or so to let them settle. With little grain sold forward, Single Farm Payments possibly delayed and farmers generally reluctant to spend, we may not see an over active market for some time. It will be interesting to see how GrowHow and Yara react if the market for early purchases is slow. Will they respond as they did with last season’s slow sales and continue to export product to Europe? If I had to predict I would suggest that they will do so. ■

No single answer to the black-grass problem Machinery supplier Opico staged a ‘Beating Black-grass’ seminar last month where cultivation options as well as the application of key grass weed herbicide Avadex (see page 12) were the focus. Dominic Kilburn writes.
Opico managing director James Woolway and the Micro-Pro 16.
subsoiling was carried out “every few years” to alleviate soil pans. “Subsoiling improves drainage and rooting but it mustn’t be done too fast as it will mix the black-grass seed throughout the soil profile,” he commented. “It’s key not to mix the soil profile and, if anything, it’s better to go wider, rather than faster,” he advised. “Set the subsoiler wings by changing the angle to lift less, with minimum ‘soil boil’, so you can go a little faster if needed but leave the soil down there,” he added.
Creating the right mix All farming cultivation systems have problems with black-grass, pointed out Opico managing director James Woolway at his company’s recent seminar entitled ‘Beating Black-grass’. However he said that a combination of different cultivation techniques and the ability to be able to vary the approach to cultivation when required is what is needed. “Our climate in the UK is very variable and so we have to vary our systems accordingly,” he stressed. Mr Woolway suggested that ploughing was a short-term fix when it came to controlling black-grass and that other systems must be employed during the years inbetween. Min-till, he said, could provide control of black-grass but it can result in deeper cultivations which are too deep for effective black-grass control, while direct drill and strip-till systems often need the plough, or shallow cultivation systems to help control the black-grass. He questioned whether drainage maintenance was a priority on farms currently, given the relentless spread of black-grass, and if moleing and

tines Create shallow stale seedbeds with discs Roll after
According to Mr Woolway, the fact that the popularity of time and cost saving combination cultivators – featuring subsoiler tines and discs – coincided with the increase in black-grass populations over the past decade, was probably not a coincidence. “With these implements we are turning the soil upside down through the whole soil profile and, in a bad black-grass situation, it can proliferate the problem. “It’s much better to subsoil slowly and then chop and mix the surface afterwards with a set of discs, rather than tines, moving the soil shallow and to a similar depth, and leaving the black-grass seeds deeper than 6cm,” Mr Woolway said. “Discs move the soil to the same depth and the flatter the discs the better, rather than the traditional concave type which, with their weight, can smear the soil as they turn.” He suggested that in preparing stale seedbeds, growers needed to think about how they would prepare a normal seedbed and focus on creating seed-to-soil contact. “Consolidation is often under utilised and so the more discs per metre the better, to increase the amount of consolidated soil across the full width. “Finally, it’s better to roll, rather than press, to make the black-grass seed germinate,” he added.
Chemical options With the renewed interest and use
of grass weed herbicide Avadex (tri-allate) in growers’ autumn weed control strategies over the past few seasons, Mr Woolway highlighted that care was needed in its application for the product to be a success. “Avadex is difficult to apply, particularly as granules vary in size making it impossible to ‘throw’ them,” he suggested, adding that the product is also very light and easily affected by wind. “With Avadex we are trying to create an even and accurate layer of chemical across the soil otherwise there simply won’t be the black-grass control, and therefore a specific applicator is required rather than using a Variocast, or similar machine, if we want Avadex to work properly,” he emphasised. Opico’s Micro-Pro 16 is the company’s latest kit specifically developed to apply Avadex. A 12m machine featuring 16 metering rollers for 16 outlets, it has additional applications including slug pellets, grass seed, clover, stubble turnips and fodder rape (more details on the Micro-Pro 16 can be found on page 43 of this magazine). Mr Woolway pointed out that it’s not possible to apply Avadex accurately using a mushroom-type distribution head as the product is too light at low rates and, especially so, if the ‘seed’ pipes are all of different lengths. The fundamental starting point of any machine designed to apply Avadex, he said, was the number of outlets – and the more the better. The less distance between outlets (maximum 0.75cm) means a more reliable and robust pattern, with less effect from the wind, he suggested. “We set out to produce the most accurate micro-granular applicator on the market,” continued Mr Woolway, who said that SCS Spreader & Sprayer Testing has been involved with its development from the start. “Using NSTS micro-granular applicator protocols the Micro-Pro achieved +/- 3% in outlet tests while the NSTS acceptable pass rate is as much as +/- 10%. If you work to +/10% then an intended application rate of 13.5kg/ha could be as much as 16.6kg/ha applied, resulting in poor or variable control of blackgrass and an illegal over application,” he warned. Likewise, in metering tests across the full width of the machine, the Micro-Pro measured +/- 1%, well

We feel that it’s very important to have this kind of accuracy when you are dealing with expensive chemical and we are the only people to do this to a machine before it goes out of the door,” said Mr Woolway.
Farm development Rob Golland, farm manager at the 1,000ha (2,470-acre) Vine House Farm, Deeping St Nicholas, near Spalding applies Avadex to wheat in the autumn with an applicator kit off the back of his 12m He-Va King Rollers. Working with Opico, he converted the farm’s Variocast Air 16 (seeder) continued over...
Opico says that it is the only company that does a patternation spread test of its Avadex applicators prior to them being purchased by growers. Corrugated sheets are laid on the floor across the full 12m working width and the application spread is measured every 7.5cm.

still further,” he pointed out. Mr Myers referred to the company’s ‘4Cast’ survey data (2000–2014) which confirmed that average herbicide spend had risen on wheat farms in line with the increased use of non-inversion cultivation techniques. “The average spend on herbicides in 2014 was £110/ha which is unsustainable at current wheat prices. Non-inversion techniques do mean a greater spend on herbicides, but it’s understandable in terms of trying to reduce establishment costs,” he explained. He encouraged growers to fully embrace cultivation control and herbicide use. “Most black-grass won’t germinate below 6cm and, once ploughed down, seed does degrade quickly – usually within three years – so having ploughed, and it must be good inversion, just work the surface for the next three years. “False or stale seedbeds are
not the total answer, particularly if they are not left long enough for the black-grass to germinate properly. However they must be consolidated, like a seedbed, if good germination is to be achieved,” he commented. Mr Myers emphasised the point that delayed drilling in the autumn is a tool that can be used to improve black-grass control and reduce herbicide costs, but yield tends to drop. “Residual chemistry goes on better in cool and moist conditions when drilling is delayed although we know that later sowing can be unreliable. “That said, there is relatively little difference in yield when drilling between mid-September and mid-October,” he added. “Spring cropping is a major benefit to black-grass control and our 4Cast for average crop gross margins in 2014 shows very little difference between winter and spring wheat, with input spend on the latter being much less,” he highlighted, pointing out that the gross margin for spring barley was not too far behind.

Herts contractor Attending the Opico event was Hertfordshire-based contractor and County Council tenant farmer Diccon Burman (right) who built his own 24m Avadex applicator and, last season, applied product to over 2,700ha (6,660 acres). He said that accuracy of operation is key and, with 0.5m spaced outlets
along the 24m booms on his machine, and enough airflow to deliver sufficient pressure to each of the seed pipes, he is getting the required spreading coefficient from his machine when operating at 12kph. “Having seen Opico’s new machine, it’s clear that it is delivering the required accuracy and they’ve taken the time to develop it properly, however too many growers
are applying Avadex with machines that are too old. They are OK if they are set up properly and conditions are ideal, but on the one hand they are using the latest GPS-controlled sprayers to apply other chemicals on the farm, and then on the other they resort to a 30-year old machine for Avadex.” Mr Burman, whose business is based near Hitchin and operates across north Hertfordshire, Bedfordshire and Cambridgeshire,
All about Avadex Avadex (tri-allate) is not the silver bullet that everyone wants for blackgrass control but used as part of a full programme of herbicides, in addition to cultural control methods, it can play a key part in a successful strategy in controlling the weed. That is the opinion of Gowan UK & Ireland technical manager Robert Plaice, talking at the ‘Beating Blackgrass’ seminar hosted by machinery manufacturer and supplier, Opico. With a resurgence in its use over the past few seasons, Mr Plaice pointed out that farms where black-grass is already an established problem will probably already be including Avadex in their weed control strategies as part of the herbicide ‘stack’, however he also suggested that there will be many growers who feel “on top of the blackgrass job”, but they feel they need to continue to reduce populations. “This group should be considering the use of Avadex as well as those also seeing heavy brome and ryegrass infestations as an increasing problem,” he commented. According to Mr Plaice, with no proven cases of resistance, as well as offering a different mode of action to most other herbicides and almost no following crop or varietal restrictions,
said that the majority of his Avadex application work is on autumn wheat although he is seeing an increase in use in spring barley where there are fewer options to control black-grass. “More growers are using Avadex now because they have found themselves with a bad black-grass problem, but why not use it to stop the problem before it happens? “Avadex also has an affect on some broad-leaved weeds, which is an additional bonus,” he added. ■
Avadex Do’s and Don’ts
tri-allate should be the base of any strategy where reducing blackgrass seed return, and dealing with resistance, are the priorities in wheat crops. “Its use in winter barley is also important where there are limited alternatives,” he added.
How to apply it Applying Avadex on the back of a drill is popular as it saves a pass but speeds should be appropriate for the equipment to maintain the integrity of the application, he advised, pointing out that the applicator must be set up correctly for the speed the operator is intending to drill at. Mr Plaice also suggested that where the drill’s soil wake moves, granules could be taken down towards the wheat seed. “This depends upon the drill but drilling depth needs to be maintained at 4cm to separate the wheat seed and the Avadex. ” he said. Granules going on to a nicely rolled surface off the back of a set of rolls provides a good, even application, but Mr Plaice pointed out that conditions can dictate that not every field on a farm is rolled. In addition, applicator operators should be PA4G qualified to carry out this
type of operation. “A dedicated applicator gives the most flexibility and purchases can always be shared by neighbouring farms, while they also have the additional advantage of being able to sow grass and cover crop seed, and apply granules and slug pellets to a clearly defined width,” added Mr Plaice.
When to use it The advice from Gowan is that black-grass control in winter cereals needs to be based around a tri-allate and herbicide tank mix (and never tri-allate alone), and ideally at preemergence of the crop, however there have been questions as to when is the best time to use Avadex in relation to other herbicides in the stack. “There have been a lot of trials with all combinations of its use; ie Avadex followed by herbicide tank mixes, herbicides tank mixes followed by Avadex and both applied at the same time,” explained Mr Plaice. “We haven’t seen any difference in either crop effects or black-grass control levels with those options and, in reality, in most seasons it’s best to get on as soon as possible after rolling, and so individual circumstances will dictate the order,” he said.
PIN POINT PRECISION.
DO: • Check application pipework, deflector plates and calibration regularly • Keep deflector plates clean and at the right angle as they dictate the evenness of application • Avadex can be applied in frost, light snow or rain, provided the deflector plates can be cleaned • Seal part-used bags otherwise unused product will absorb moisture • Make sure drilling depth for wheat is 4cm DON’T: • Apply when the top 5–8cm of soil is bone dry • Apply to very cloddy seedbeds as granules can bounce off resulting in uneven coverage • Consolidate after application as this can push the granules down towards wheat seed • Apply pre-em to direct drilled crops – post-em only • Apply to soils with more than 10 per cent organic matter • Apply in strong winds as this might disrupt the spread pattern • Sow oat or grass crops within one year of Avadex use

Hybrid barley yields giving bigger boost Syngenta’s “next generation” of high yielding 6-row hybrid winter barleys has been unveiled. Dominic Kilburn writes. Candidate varieties on the current HGCA Recommended List, Bazooka and Belfry are billed as the next step on in terms of 6-row hybrid feed winter barley, claims breeder Syngenta. Both are the highest yielding winter barley Candidates at 108 per cent of controls and both come with very strong disease resistance scores, as well as other useful agronomic characteristics. In addition, the pair is the first of Syngenta’s Hyvido-branded hybrid barleys to be entered into Recommended List trials since Volume in 2008 (see opposite). Speaking at the company’s Cambridgeshire base, Syngenta technical crop expert – Hyvido, James MarshallRoberts (right) said that Bazooka and Belfry yielded 2 per cent above Volume, while also offering improvements in disease resistance and agronomics (see Table 1). “A step up from Volume, these varieties are a great fit for high pressure disease areas and, as well as having good specific weights and early to mature, they provide an early entry for oilseed rape.” According to Mr Marshall-Roberts, and unusually for Candidate varieties, there will be sufficient seed available this autumn and he expects a move into Bazooka and Belfry from some current growers of Volume, as well as attracting growers of other varieties.
Rotational benefits He pointed out the significant advantages that hybrid winter barley can provide in terms of black-grass suppression, saying that ADAS trials at Boxworth had demonstrated a superior reduction in the number of black-grass heads in a crop of Volume, compared with wheat. However, it wasn’t just the number of heads that was reduced but also the heads were smaller with less seed, potentially resulting in a lower blackgrass seed return. “Importantly, OSR crops have far less black-grass in them when following hybrid barley than wheat,” he added. Mr Marshall-Roberts also highlighted data suggesting that OSR yields following winter barley benefitted by as much as 0.34t/ha compared with following a second wheat. “This comes from the earlier entry provided by winter barley allowing for more time to get establishment preparation right: better seedbeds, good consolidation and establishment. “Hyvido winter barley’s earlier harvesting date also helps spread the harvest workload as well as providing an opportunity for early movement of grain,” he added.
Recommended List. “The RL is a trusted source of information that ranks the genetic potential of varieties as well as disease and agronomic scores, but on-farm large-scale trials are a true indication of how varieties perform,” he suggested. Yield advantages were seen for Volume over conventional winter barley varieties in both small plot and farm-scale trials (2011–2014), but it was in the latter where the greater difference was seen (a mean of 0.85t/ ha). “Hyvido varieties excel in largescale studies which provide a more accurate picture of variety performance on farm,” he added.
Economics As well as better yielding, Mr TaylorAlford said that Hyvido varieties also consistently delivered increased profitability over conventional varieties (using RL data sets and Nix costings 2011–2014) and, while the outlook for 2015 and beyond currently looked tough, with low grain prices, driving yield with Hyvido varieties will be key, and could deliver more profitability over some second wheats. “Growers also get the agronomic benefits of black-grass suppression, better OSR yields and easier workloads on farm,” he concluded.
Back on the List Syngenta has re-entered its hybrid winter barley varieties into Recommended List trials for the first time since Volume in 2008 following changes to the RL protocols for winter barley. In the intervening years the company said that it didn’t believe that RL protocols showed hybrid barley in the best light, or that the target for recommendation was fair. Growers will now be able to see new technology tested in a way that takes it a step closer as to what is happening on farm, says Syngenta, which, over time, will make choices on the RL clearer for growers. HGCA RL protocol changes include: • A higher proportion of winter barley trials are now focused on feed. It was previously a 50:50 split (feed and malting) but now 80:20 in favour of feed, reflecting the market. • Nitrogen programmes – modern feed barley fertiliser programmes implemented across RL sites, with early nitrogen emphasis on feed trials and three splits where appropriate. • New Recommendation target segments: Feed barley and malting barley only (rather than 2- and 6-row conventional; 6-row hybrid; malting). • Yield targets: +3 per cent of the average of highest yielding 2- and 6-row on the RL. ■

Full UK IBD brewing approval for high yielder KWS Irina has received Full Approval for brewing from the Institute of Brewing and Distilling (IBD). It becomes the highest yielding spring malting barley fully accepted by the industry. According to KWS value chain manager, Dr Kirsty Richards (right), the new UK approval follows successful large-scale macro-malting and brewing tests carried out for the IBD by Molson Coors, Bairds Malt, Crisp Malting and Boortmalt. “It comes hot on the heels of KWS Irina’s green light acceptance from leading brewers on the continent last year, including Heineken, Carlsberg
and Radeberger, who have already seen a significant commercial tonnage from farmers in France, Germany and Denmark,” she says. “As a result, UK growers can be confident that it will readily find a premium market on the continent as well as on home soil.” Dr Richards points out that industry assessments confirmed KWS Irina has a high water extract ahead of Propino and NFCTipple and just behind Concerto. It also has a good free amino nitrogen (FAN) level, similar to Propino and better than NFC-Tipple as well as low ß-glucan levels. KWS Irina has no issues with movements
through 2.5 or 2.25mm sieves. “It is shaping up to be a real pan European favourite and will allow brewers to draw upon a variety that suits their Europe-wide processing needs ensuring continuity of supply of consistent malt from a wide range of sources,” she says. KWS expects industry approval combined with farmer interest to take the variety to an 11 per cent sell out market share next spring and further growth to a market position of around 15 per cent in 2017. “There are plenty of options for growers particularly across the east and south of England, where it could find a place in export cargoes or local maltings.
“At 108 per cent of controls, KWS Irina is 6 per cent higher yielding in Recommended List trials that the next best IDB Approved varieties Odyssey and Propino and on a par with the best feed only varieties. “With relatively short straw, the best lodging resistance of the malting types on the 2015/16 Recommended List and good wet weather disease resistance, it will also prove reliable on farm,” says Dr Richards. KWS Irina was the only new variety to secure full IDB Approval and is the first spring barley from the KWS pan-European breeding programme to achieve this grade in the UK. ■
Vast choice of cereal varieties backed by expert advice New varieties always attract strong interest at Cereals and there will be plenty in the ground this year to help visitors update their cropping portfolio. Following the success of Skyfall, RAGT Seeds is showing another top quality wheat that is about to hit the market. Recommended List candidate variety RGT Illustrious has good baking consistency at a range of different protein contents, performing equally or better than the control Solstice over several years, says the company. The variety’s yield challenges Skyfall, and it has excellent disease resistance as well as the Pch1 eyespot resistance gene. Visitors will also be able to see
RAGT’s spring barley Planet, added to the 2015/16 RL as the highest yielding variety on the RL with a treated yield of 109 per cent. It is approved for distilling and is being tested for malting. Britannia, which gained full recommendation in the 2015/16 RL, is the highest yielding Group 3 biscuit wheat. The variety is moderately stiff strawed and has an 8 for yellow rust and a 6 for septoria tritici plus good grain quality, says Limagrain. Reflection, the hard Group 4 winter feed wheat from Syngenta, makes its first appearance at Cereals since taking the top slot for UKtreated yield on the Recommended List. The variety combines high yield,
early maturity and stiff straw, and is resistant to orange wheat blossom midge. New Group 4 hard feed wheat Costello can be seen on Senova’s stand. It has good grain quality and very strong agronomic characteristics, including a very high specific weight (80.5kg/hl). Short and stiff, Costello also offers excellent disease resistance. KWS is giving top billing to its new dynamic wheats, KWS Lili and KWS Trinity, which combine high yields with added-value market opportunities to help growers generate better returns in a bear cereals market. *Turn to page 83 of this edition for the start of the industry’s most
comprehensive Cereals event preview (86 pages!) including more in-depth coverage of both cereal and OSR varieties that will be on show at the event.

Beet varieties continue to deliver yield potential The ten new varieties added to the 2016 Recommended (RL) and Descriptive (DL) Lists show the continued upward yield trend of new sugar beet varieties being put forward by breeders. Dominic Kilburn rounds up the variety, and other developments, at the first of the BBRO’s Summer Open Days. Six new varieties have been added to the RL, three are from KWS; Sabatina, Salamanca and Tasmania; and three from Limagrain UK; BTS 340, BTS 470 and *BTS 515. The DL has four new beet cyst nematode (BCN) tolerant varieties for 2016: Leesha and Tabatha from KWS; BTS 755 from Limagrain and Aurora from SESVanderHave UK. “While the weather is an important determinant of final commercial sugar beet yields each year, these results show that breeders are playing a major role and continue to produce varieties with ever higher yield potential,” said RL Board chairman Mike May, speaking at the first of the BBRO’s Summer Open Days, at Grimston in Norfolk last month. “The yield of the control varieties in 2014 trials was 111 adjusted t/ha and we saw the newer varieties achieving up to a 5 per cent increase over that.” The four new BCN tolerant varieties added to the DL also show good yield improvements. “The yield results are in the absence of BCN and, while yields are as good as some of the varieties on the RL, the varieties on the DL should only be used for the particular trait they are listed,” advises Mr May.
Top yielder KWS sugar beet manager Simon Witheford (right) said that top yielding Sabatina (105 per cent adjusted tonnes) had high performance in all the important characters including yield, bolting and disease resistance. “It’s an all-round variety with no weaknesses and it brings a step change in UK sugar beet yields,” he said, speaking just ahead of the BBRO’s event. Mr Witheford pointed out that Sabatina’s yield meant a 3 per cent leap in yield per hectare compared with last year’s top-Listed variety Hornet and that, despite a reduction in overall area, growers still had the opportunity to increase yields with a variety like this. In terms of bolting, he said that Sabatina was grouped with those varieties on the List that had good early sown bolter performance and it is one of only two varieties to have no normal sown bolters in trials. The variety also has a very good all-round disease resistance profile, according to Mr Witheford, including a RL list-topping ‘8’ for rust. “It’s hugely important for crops to retain a healthy canopy throughout the growing season and an absolute
requirement when lifting late. “Sabatina will help growers maintain this, further maximising yield and sugars,” he added. Labelled as partner varieties to Sabatina are KWS’ other recommended varieties to the RL – Salamanca and Tasmania. Salamanca comes in the top five varieties on the List with high yields (103.6 per cent adjusted tonnes), good sugar content (18.1 per cent) and is in the top six varieties for early sown bolting performance. In addition, the variety has a good rating for disease resistance. Tasmania, which comes one place below Salamanca on the List (102.8 per cent adjusted tonnes) and a high sugar content of 18.1 per cent, offered growers a balanced variety, commented Mr Witheford.
BCN types Referring to a KWS/British Sugar soil testing programme (2014/2015) across the sugar beet growing areas of the east of England, Mr Witheford said that there was a clear trend developing where beet cyst nematode (BCN) infestations were occurring. “We targeted those that weren’t using BCN resistant varieties and areas around Wissington, the Brecks, Peterborough and Newark all showed up as having concentrations – the programme reiterated where the main problems with BCN are occurring. “We’ll be doing the
Competitiveness will be key post 2017 Can the UK sugar beet industry compete? That was the question posed by KWS Northern Europe sugar beet manager, César Ruano Delgado, speaking ahead of the BBRO Summer Open Day held in Norfolk. He said that 2017 would see the end of sugar beet reform in the EU when there would be no more quotas. “At that stage there will be free competition with some protection from outside the EU, but no borders within,” he stressed. Looking at the market postreform, César suggested that, initially, there could be an increase in sugar production across the EU and an extension of the sugar beet
growing area in certain regions, however, with an expected decrease in the sugar price it might then be a case of “last man standing” in terms of which sugar beet-producing countries could continue to compete. “There will be volatile markets ahead – very different to what we have seen in the past and, depending on how competitive the UK is, and its neighbouring countries, this will determine if we will see a further reduction in sugar beet acreage,” he explained. César highlighted the fact that the (estimated) cost of UK sugar beet production was €21–22/t; 6th from highest in a list of 18

EU sugar beet-producing nations. This compared with top placed France (€13.5/t), Belgium (€15.3/t) and Germany (€16/t), which had some of the lowest costs of production. “Competitiveness of countries and political decisions on production aid schemes will be some of the key determining factors on the future of the industry,” he concluded.
same testing programme again next year, focusing on the hot spots and we’ll be encouraging those specific growers with land affected to use some of the new resistant varieties,” he added. The company has two new entries onto the Descriptive List (varieties with specific traits) including BCN-resistant Leesha and Tabatha. “In the past, BCN-resistant varieties didn’t have the high yields of non-resistant ones and there was a yield penalty in the absence of BCN, but with 101.9 per cent adjusted tonnes for Leesha (on the DL) – higher than 50 per cent of varieties on the RL – it has all but closed the gap on the best non-resistant types,” said Mr Witheford. Leesha also has the highest sugar content out of all varieties on both Lists (18.6 per cent) and a top rating of 9 for rust resistance, he added. Tabatha (101.2 per cent adjusted tonnes), like Leesha, has high sugar content (18.5 per cent) and very good resistance to rust (8).
Yield and sugar Bred by Betaseed GmBH, Limagrain’s BTS 470 features top line performance for yield and sugar content offering very high adjusted tonnes yield at 105 per cent of controls, positioning it joint top of the Recommended List in this category, said Limagrain UK sugar beet consultant Bram van der Have (left). The variety also offers consistently high sugar content at 18.2 per cent – one of the highest on the Recommend List, he added. BTS 470 is rhizomania resistant and is one of the lowest bolters on the RL when sown at ‘normal’. Mr van der Have said that the variety has very good resistance for rust and powdery mildew, and will be welcomed by growers looking to spread the spraying workload among more susceptible varieties and those who like to lift later in the season. The second new variety to be offered from Limagrain is BTS 340; a “good all-rounder variety” offering excellent yield potential. “Add to this its solid all-round agronomics and you have a variety that will suit most situations and needs,” said Mr van der Have. As one of the highest yielders continued over...

on the list, BTS 340 offers a relative adjusted tonnes yield of 103.7 per cent, and a sugar content of 17.92 per cent. BTS 340 has one of the lowest bolting tendencies when sown at a normal time, however the flexibility of the variety to meet a range of situations is demonstrated by its ability to maintain this lower bolting tendency which allows for it to be sown anytime from reasonably early in March to the end of April, pointed out Mr van der Have. The third newly listed variety from the company is BTS 755, which is the highest yielding variety on the 2016 BBRO Descriptive List to offer beet cyst nematode tolerance. Combined with its rhizomania resistance and agronomic package, it is likely to appeal to those with land confirmed with, or suspected of being infected with, BCN and with no compromise to performance, he suggested. In official trials the variety has demonstrated its ability to produce in fields without BCN infestation yields of relative adjusted tonnes of 103 per cent, which is close to the top yielders on the 2016 BBRO Recommended List. “In other words, growers with a BCN problem no longer have to pay a yield penalty,” he added. This is a high sugar content variety that can be sown with confidence, notes Mr van der Have, as it is a fast emerger that produces a high final plant population with a very erect leaf canopy, and BTS 755 can be sown from late-March until late April. The variety also offers
mildew resistance rating. *Limagrain’s BTS 515, which gained entry to the RL with an adjusted tonnes yield of 105 per cent, is not available for seed this year, pointed out the company.
Tried and tested Aurora from SESVanderHave has been added to the BBRO Descriptive List. The variety offers exceptional root yield in the presence of BCN, points out the breeder. “We are really pleased to see this variety gain recommendation,” said SESVanderHave UK managing director Ian Munnery. “Crucially, our extensive UK testing programme has ensured the variety was rigorously tested in the presence of the pest. “Aurora joins a strong line-up of our varieties including Hornet, Stingray, Springbok, Cayman, Lipizzan and Mongoose, having delivered some of the highest yields on record in 2014 and looking set to do the same in 2015. Our portfolio has been bred exclusively for UK conditions. Every variety has been fully trialed and tested in this country, which is why we are confident that growers can trust and depend on them in 2016.”
Managing risk With ten new varieties joining the RL and DL Lists, growers face a complex set of choices at a time when many have had to reduce their beet area and now need to maximise their returns from a smaller area of crop. Breeder Strube’s UK managing
(right), advises growers to consider a balanced mix of the exciting new opportunities and proven reliable performers. “Variety selection is not necessarily all about yield; additional characters such as bolting, establishment and consistency of performance are all important factors. “The six new varieties on the Recommended List show an impressive increase in average yield, but also very considerable variations in yield performance from year to year. The established varieties show markedly more consistent performance – notably Haydn, with differences of less than 0.5 per cent in relative performance across all three years of trials. This compares with some of the newer varieties varying by more than 8 per cent from year to year,” he said. Haydn made up more than 20 per cent of the last year’s recordbreaking crop and Strube claims that the variety combines proven reliability with the lowest bolting, which allows growers to take advantage of early drilling. A high sugar content helps to put the most value on every load of beet leaving the farm, added the firm, which also offers Pasteur on the RL and Thor on the DL.
Beet protection Keep a good lookout for disease in crops this season, warned BBRO lead scientist Dr Mark Stevens (right),
that rust has been the main threat over the past few seasons, rather than mildew, and he made it clear that growers should always kick off their fungicide campaigns at full rates, in order to manage disease appropriately thereafter. With a reduction in area and the current price structure, Dr Stevens urged growers to drive the crops as hard as possible and be aware of the potential length of the growing season, as this will influence fungicide spray strategies. “If lifting in September then it’s a one-spray strategy for the season; October lifting onwards then a twospray, with a potential benefit from a third spray for crops being lifted after Christmas. “Be aware however of whether the third spray is needed,” cautioned Dr Stevens. “There will be some indicators as to whether it is required and agronomists and area managers will advise. We’ve often seen benefit from a third spray for late lifted crops but it’s all about understanding the season as to whether it’s worthwhile,” he added.

ramularia and cercospora, reported Syngenta field technical manager, Simon Roberts (right). He advocated that the optimised formulation of two tried and tested triazoles, difenoconazole and propiconazole, will prove a direct replacement for one of the company’s previous leading beet fungicides, Spyrale (difenoconazole + fenpropidin). “Armure now has the added advantage of the stronger curative and protectant triazole activity,” he advised. “It is recommended as the first spray when the crop reaches full ground cover (BBCH 40), to prevent early disease development.
“For later crops, it can be followed by the strobilurin, Priori Xtra (azoxystrobin + cyproconazole), to complete the green leaf enhancement through to lifting.” Syngenta advises that sugar and fodder beet growers can make up to two applications of Armure, at a rate of 0.6-litres/ ha. Initial applications, at early canopy cover, should be applied in a water volume of 200-litres/ha, however later applications in dense crops may benefit from increasing water volume to 300-litres/ha, and using angled nozzles to improve penetration to lower leaves and root crown. The harvest interval is 21 days from application.

Because Markets can Change
UPL’s technical manager Pam Chambers was at the event highlighting the issue of controlling cut-leaved cranesbill (Geranium dissectum) in sugar beet, which she said had become more of a problem where sugar beet and oilseed rape were grown in the same rotation. “Cranesbill is easier to control in cereals but not so in beet and OSR,” she pointed out. Using a pot demonstration on UPL’s stand, Ms Chambers highlighted that, applied on its own, beet herbicide metamitron (as in Bettix Flo) showed little difference in control of cut-leaved cranesbill compared with the untreated. Improvements in control were evident with an application of phenmedipham + desmedipham (as in Beetup Compact SC,) and a slight synergistic effect with the addition of metamitron to these two actives. “However, significantly better control of cut-leaved cranesbill was achieved with ethofumesate + metamitron (as in Oblix MT), and the best was seen with ethofumesate + phenmedipham + desmedipham (as in Betasana Trio),” she commented. “This was a pot demonstration, and control wouldn’t be so good in the field, however adding in 30g/ha Debut (triflusulfuron-methyl) plus adjuvant oil to 1.75–2.5-litres/ha Betasana Trio would provide the best control. “But this must be at the cotyledon stage of the cranesbill for the best results,” she added. ■

AGRONOMY UPDATE
Blight spray programmes and T3 focus
le
Agrovista agronomist Craig Green will be using a new fungicide in his potato blight programmes this season and plans for wheat T3s and OSR desiccation are also taking shape.

Wheat ear sprays

The main target at T3 is ear blight, so sprays need to be applied as soon as the ear is fully emerged but before flowering, when the threat diminishes, says Agrovista agronomist Craig Green (right).

ha depending on haulm size. “It promotes healthy leaf growth and helps repair leaf damage, providing a pep up when growth is at its most rapid, increasing the plant’s own defence against blight.”
Given the recent warm weather, moisture and the presence of blight on some seed stocks, good fungicide programmes will be important from the rosette stage onwards in potato crops, says Craig. He’ll kick off the blight programme with Ranman Top (cyazofamid) at 0.5-litres/ha to keep out foliar blight and control early zoospore activity in the soil. A varied sequence of products will follow during rapid canopy management to reduce selection for resistance. He’ll include a new arrival for this season from Syngenta, Carial Flex (cymoxanil + mandipropamid). “It is a really excellent product for foliar blight,” says Craig. “It topped the Euroblight rating table for 2015 with a score of 4.4, and tackles the newer, more aggressive strains of blight that can occur earlier in the season at cooler temperatures.”
Carial Flex contains mandipropamid, a strong protectant, and cymoxanil, which provides good kickback. The water dispersible granule formulation rapidly dissolves in the spray tank, he adds. “It’s the first time we’ve seen these two actives as a co-formulation. The product will build flexibility into the blight programme and I’ll alternate it with other translaminar/ systemic products to provide the best protection during rapid canopy growth.” Carial Flex should be applied at 0.6kg/ha in 200–600 litres/ha of water depending on haulm density, and can be used up to six times per crop between 1 May–31 August, says Craig. He’ll add foliar nitrogen to blight sprays as Krypton N at 1–5-litres/
As T2 sprays draw to a close, attention will be turning to T3 ear sprays, applied during flowering to control fusarium/michrodochuim ear blight and suppress any surviving septoria on the flag leaf. “Most growers will have used strobilurins and SDHIs in the mix at T1 and T2, so they won’t be able to use them again. Septoria continues to lurk, especially but not only in crops that missed a T0. “We’ve had enough rain to keep it moving up the plant, so we’ll need a good protectant. But the main target is ear blight, so we need to be applying a spray as soon as the ear is fully emerged but before flowering, when the threat diminishes.” Craig favours prochloraz + tebuconazole (as in Monkey), though prothioconazole is a good alternative. “Both are protectants so need to be applied before any infection occurs.” Wheat prices may be low but he urges growers to treat crops if a wet spell during flowering is forecast. “It only takes one rainfall event during flowering to greatly increase the risk of infection. Just one rejected lorryload will far outweigh the cost of a T3, whether feed wheat or milling.”
OSR desiccation Most oilseed rape crops are even this season and will suit desiccation with glyphosate. Lodged crops hinder
chemical translocation so should be sprayed with diquat + pod sealant instead, says Craig. “Glyphosate does a more thorough job and the desiccated crop tends to be less brittle – seed weevil/pod midge has been a problem in some fields so pods might be more fragile than usual. “The cost of glyphosate has fallen recently so it’s worth buying ahead before new stocks hit the market. “I’ll use Companion Gold at 1-litre/ha with glyphosate – it is more cost effective than proprietary pod sealants, helps reduce drift and helps spread the droplets across and into the crop, resulting in a more even kill.”
Watch out for midge A few days prior to T3, at mid ear emergence (GS53–59), growers should monitor crops of susceptible wheat varieties for orange wheat blossom midge. “Heed the thresholds and only spray if these are exceeded – over one midge per three ears in feed wheat and over one in six for milling and seed crops,” Craig advises. “The best time to check is mid-evening when temperatures are above 150C. Agrovista advises lambda-cyhalothrin (eg Hallmark Zeon) or thiacloprid (eg Biscaya), to minimise the effect on non-target organisms. Once the crops starts to flower, the danger period is past.” Further details can be found at http://www.hgca.com/ media/183701/g45-orange-wheatblossom-midge-guidelines-forassessment-and-control.pdf *Craig Green is an agronomist with Agrovista, based at Great Ellingham, Norfolk (Craig.Green@ agrovista.co.uk). ■

Managing modern OSR Will Vaughan-France, Dekalb technical specialist
Well-structured canopies nicely set up for pod-fill A notably short and productive flowering period in most crops across much of the country has been very welcome this year. In many cases, full flowering lasted barely 4–5 weeks, rather than the 6–7 we’ve often seen of late, coming to a rapid end as I write at the start of the second week in May. Far steadier development than last year in a later and much drier spring has allowed our vigorous hybrids, in particular, to produce well-structured canopies with plenty of strong side branches that are none too tall. Just the way we like them. As expected, our low biomass hybrids with the semi-dwarf character have caught up rapidly over the past month, with an especially short, sharp flowering flourish. Following an autumn and winter in which rooting was unhindered by water-logging in many cases, the dry spring has been no bad thing;
especially not with the early May rain coming at just the right time to favour pod-fill rather than further canopy development. Good photosynthetic and pollination conditions in an April in which most parts of the country saw 40 per cent more sunshine hours than the 30-year average, have been very beneficial too. As a result, we’re seeing excellent, even pod set across the vast majority of our small plot and commercial scale trials. The short flowering period means far less late pod creation. So it looks like we’ll see more sensible levels of pod density this season, with greater numbers of seeds per pod – I’ve already been counting between 20–30 in the earliest set – and potentially far bigger seeds. Especially so as the early end to flowering leaves a good two months of pod fill. Lack of moisture in March and April could well also give us a valuable extra
Field days provide variety and fungicide comparisons Farmers and agronomists will have the opportunity to compare winter wheat varieties and judge the effectiveness of fungicide programmes at this year’s Bayer CropScience Field Days around the country. At each of six demonstration days being held around England, there will be the chance to hear about up to 30 winter wheat varieties from independent experts. With disease pressure increasing after rain in May, it will be a good chance to compare varieties, natural disease resistance, particularly against the number one disease yield robber septoria, says Bayer CropScience’s Mike Abram. “There are also wheat fungicide trials at each demonstration, so growers can compare efficacy from different fungicide programmes, such as those based on our SDHI fungicide Aviator Xpro (bixafen + prothioconazole).” In Scotland, the emphasis will switch to spring barley fungicide programmes, based on Siltra Xpro (bixafen + prothioconazole) and Fandango (fluoxastrobin + prothioconazole). There will also be specific demonstrations or speakers at some of the days as well as an opportunity
to look at oilseed rape varieties at some sites, including new HGCA Recommended List candidates bred by the company, and to discuss any agronomy issues with staff, including seed treatments. ■

pod-fill bonus of late nitrogen release from earlier-applied fertiliser now we’ve had a decent amount of rain. Of course, the dry spring hasn’t helped crops with thinner areas fill-in as well as we’d hoped. In some areas flea beetle larvae damage has been serious enough for crops to be pulled out in April. And we’re likely to see more extended flowering and less even crop development where late frosts have hit. The surprisingly high levels of seed weevil I’ve seen in a few crops may also cause them to suffer more pod midge damage than usual. While reports of high turnip yellows virus (TuYV) incidence cannot be ignored, our untreated UK variety development work against a continued background of the virus suggests this is unlikely to have a major impact on yield. Overall, therefore, the bulk of the national crop looks well set for the
run-in to harvest. Generally more even crops should make Roundup timing for harvest management a good bit easier this season too. In modern, wellstructured crops it’s more important than ever we have patience, only spraying when the pods in the part of the canopy carrying the bulk of the yield are ready. Relatively few late pods on lower branches will mean less of a maturity range across most crops. So there shouldn’t be nearly such a risk from not rushing into pre-harvest spraying as soon as the pods on the main raceme are ready. All the more so with pod-shatter resistant varieties. Being in no hurry with the Roundup will, in turn, enable the best yields, oil contents and sample qualities to be secured in a year in which the greatest gross output will be more critical than ever to crop profitability. ■
Avadex application on the level
The Geoboom can be retrofitted to all Techneat Engineering trailed Avadex applicators.
An entirely new Geoboom design for the Techneat Avacast trailed Avadex (tri-allate) applicators will help growers to achieve more consistent application across the seedbed surface this autumn. The engineered solution incorporates a twin-point geometric divergent link suspension system, which will ensure the 12m boom remains level where the applicator wheels ride over bumps or dips in the surface. The new design is intended to improve accuracy, maintain application speed and stability of the booms, says Techneat. Tim Neat reported that the company has seen a significant increase in orders for trailed machines over the past two years, with many growers opting for the increased flexibility in timing and soil conditions, compared with having applicators mounted on rolls.
“Soil moisture that can prove too sticky for rolling could be ideal to get the very best performance for grass weed control,” he advised. “Pulling a trailed machine behind an ATV or utility vehicle will achieve high work rates and can deliver extremely high accuracy. “It gives growers the flexibility to make applications at the optimum time every season,” added Tim. “With the difficult wet conditions in the autumn last season, many customers reported using the opportunity to contract spread granules for other growers with the trailed machines, when they had finished their own work.” The Techneat Avacast features an independent petrol-engine power source to drive the granule distribution fan. It requires no external hydraulic coupling and can be trailed by any suitable vehicle. *For more on Avadex application, turn to page 12.

Determined to continue the family tradition of agricultural engineering going back to 1820, he went to Ransomes in Ipswich as an apprentice. At that time, the company had the longest single production line in the country, starting at one end with the components and ending with completed combine harvesters at the other. Later, Tony joined the Randells business for a while, heading the crop storage division, building silos, grain and potato stores all over East Anglia. He developed “ingenious” construction methods and gained a great deal of respect both as an engineer and as a businessman. In 1978 Tony left the old family business which, by this time, had become part of Dalgety Spillers under Australian ownership and bought the long-established Norgate Bros builders from its retiring owner. The site at Horstead was large enough for him to start a new agricultural engineering business, Randell Agriculture – in competition with the old family firm. For the first few years he focused on crop storage but soon found an opportunity to become a dealer for Kverneland – the first in England. With his sharp eye for good engineering and design, Tony set about proving the quality of what were back then unheard of and viewed
as strange machines with an unpronounceable name, but eventually became market leaders and almost the only ploughs seen in Norfolk. With these sales came a huge potential for parts business and Tony invested heavily to buy in large quantities, allowing him to give customers big discounts. It was a move that eventually saw him supplying parts throughout Great Britain. As time went on Randells acquired various other tractor and machinery agencies, such as Same and later Valtra, Amazone, Juko and, by the early ‘90s, Vaderstad. Meanwhile the garden machinery aspect of the business was taking off, first with the British-built Laser garden tractors. It all began when, needing a ride-on mower at home, Tony looked around for a suitable machine and got talking with manufacturers. Needless to say, the demonstration model spent the weekends in Tony’s garden! Eventually Laser was taken over but, by the ‘90s, the new Countax garden tractors company was born and further improved the basic ideas of the Laser tractors. Countax was to become another of Tony’s success stories and the company remains one of its largest dealers in the country. By the mid-‘90s, the agricultural business had expanded to the point when Tony decided to close the Norgate building business, giving the Randells business more storage space and more yard area to accommodate the ever-larger machinery. He also decided to buy a
second site in Dereham and set about building a new deport with the well-liked and respected Frank Haverson at the helm. Tony was a keen sailor and became one of The Early ‘30s sailing group – named because of its members’ birth years. Over a period of 16 years the group of friends sailed initially around Scotland and, latterly, preferring warmer climes, in southern Europe. One of those friends, John Harris, was to help Tony gain planning permission for housing on the old Horstead site. This made way for the purchase of a more prominent site on the main North Walsham Road in Horstead which, although not big enough for agricultural machinery, offered an opportunity to really expand the garden machinery business, with lots of passing traffic and a large new showroom bringing in lots of new customers. Tony leaves the business in the hands of his son William, who
has run the business since the ‘90s and today comprises the depots at Horstead and Dereham and a yard at Little Ellingham, specialising in Vaderstad seeding and cultivations machinery and a comprehensive range of garden machinery. Tony will be sorely missed by many, not least his widow, Elizabeth, their two children William and Katrina, sonin-law Richard Hirst and six grandchildren. A service of thanksgiving tok place on 11th May at St Nicholas Church, North Walsham which was packed, despite being the second-largest parish church in Norfolk. Tony was born in North Walsham and lived there all his life. He is pictured at last year’s Royal Norfolk Show when HRH Prince Edward visited the company’s stand. With him are his wife, son William and grandson Harry. Son-in-law Richard Hirst is in the background. 06R75B

Tracked options increase for 2016
In the past most half-track tractors have been the result of conversions of standard wheeled tractors by specialist suppliers, but the increasing power of modern conventional tractors combined with the need to maintain a width practical for road use has resulted in Case IH developing its Magnum Rowtrac. Farmers Guide was the first UK magazine to try it out at an exclusive demonstration event. Agricultural tyre development in recent years has resulted in the availability of tyres capable of running at lower pressures, carrying higher loads, running at higher road speeds and transmitting more power to the ground than ever before. However, with the requirement from users for higher work rates, tractors with more power have become popular and during heavy draft work, it is often the ability to gain adequate grip, which limits performance. Tracked tractors have become a popular alternative, spreading the load over a larger area reducing compaction, and often providing better traction but the twin-track design, used by most manufacturers, is not ideal according to Case IH product marketing manager for the Quadtrac, Magnum and Rowtrac, Paul Freeman. Case IH includes some of the most powerful conventional tractors
available in its popular Magnum range including the 380CVX, boasting up to 435hp in its power boost mode, and which was awarded the coveted Tractor of the Year title for 2015. “The Magnum range has been a great success since it was introduced in 1987,” explained Paul, “and constant improvements and performance upgrades mean it remains the first choice for many larger farms and contractors. Correctly set-up and ballasted it is capable of high work rates and superb traction, but for the most demanding applications the new Rowtrac option will increase its abilities significantly.” Case IH has considerable experience of track drive systems, its Quadtrac articulated tractors having four separate tracks instead of wheels and offering up to 682hp and its Axial-Flow combines available with tracks as an option for the past few seasons. Farmers Guide attended a preview day in Cambridgeshire, to which current users of tracked machines were invited to test-drive the new model.
Not just a tracked Magnum The Magnum Rowtrac is very different to its standard wheeled sibling, and although the front axle, engine, CVT transmission and cab are almost identical, the complete rear end has been specially designed to put up with the extra stresses created by the improved grip, and to maximise the performance of the track assemblies. From the rear crown and pinion, a shaft transmits power to a massive cast reduction gear housing, from which a large driven drive wheel engages with the track lugs transmitting the power. Below the drive wheel is the track assembly, with a large idler wheel at each end and three track rollers between. Track tension is provided by a hydraulic ram between the idlers, automatically adjusting to provide correct tension every time any hydraulic service is activated on the tractor. The track assembly is very cleverly designed, capable of pivoting front and rear and to the sides to ensure constant full ground contact by the tracks. A large fulcrum point, just below the centre of the drive wheel, provides the movement fore and aft. The front and rear end idlers are 15mm above the three centre rollers which, the manufacturer explained, reduces wear on the road when ground contact by the full length of the tracks isn’t needed. Track width options for the UK market will include 24 and 30in, and track centres of 72, 80 and 88in can be specified. Lift capacity is the same as for the wheeled equivalents, but the lower lift arms are slightly extended, providing extra clearance for implements during headland turns. The PTO and hydraulic services are also as the wheeled machines. For the UK market, three versions of the Rowtrac will be available; the Magnum 310, 340 and 380. Transmission options include an 18-speed powershift or CVT for the
smaller models but the 380 flagship is available only with CVT. All UK machines will have a 40kph maximum travel speed as standard. The Rowtrac is considerably heavier than the wheeled tractors, the 380 weighing in at approximately 19t unladen. Paul Freeman explained that, unlike a conventional 4wd wheeled tractor on which the rear wheels transmit some 70 per cent of the power, on the Rowtrac almost all the traction is provided by the tracks with the front wheels, on their suspended axle, used mainly for steering. When pulling hard in the field there is a natural tendency for the weight to transfer to the rear and this means most weight is on the tracks, helping provide the tractive effort. A consequence of the heavier unladen weight is that the cab frame has been strengthened, to provide the protection needed in a rollover situation, although from the outside there is nothing to suggest a difference.
Maximum traction Because the tracks don’t provide the steering function, they have a standard differential, which can be locked for maximum traction if needed. The differential lock can be set to disengage automatically when the steering wheels exceed a preset angle, which means that when small corrections are needed during work the tracks can be left locked together for maximum efficiency. Paul explained that the system results in a further significant benefit for users. “Most farms purchasing this sort of tractor will be operating using guidance systems, and a problem encountered often with twin-track crawlers is that when crossing uneven ground, there is a tendency for the tractor to twitch left and right, as the draft forces on each side vary. Because the automatic steering tries to correct continued over...

pu A significant advantage of the design is that the front wheel steer is as a standard wheeled tractor, allowing the tracks to provide almost all the traction. This means standard differentials and differential locks are fitted, maximising traction. On the headland the manoeuvrability is excellent and the tracks cause little more surface damage than would occur with a wheeled machine. ...from previous page
this movement through the tracks, the result is a constant movement left and right which is uncomfortable for the operator. This isn’t the case with the Rowtrac, as the conventional front wheel steering allows minor corrections to be made as required, which are no more noticeable to the operator than they would be on a wheeled tractor.” The steering front wheels provide an additional significant advantage over twin-track machines as, when carrying out tight headland turns, the land is left relatively flat and undisturbed whereas tracked machines, which rely on varying the speed of one track compared to the other, often have a tendency to push earth into ridges as the tracks slide. “This is a huge advantage,” added Paul, “particularly when carrying out light cultivations or drilling as the absence of ridges and troughs resulting from the four points of contact means the Rowtrac creates no more surface damage than a conventional wheeled machine.”
First drive The Rowtrac 380CVX driven by Farmers Guide had been in the UK for dealer training, ahead of the autumn demonstration season when a number of machines will be available for potential customers to see at work. Following the dealer training the machine was due to travel almost immediately to Spain, but a 2-day gap meant there was an opportunity for the Case IH UK team to gauge customer reaction with a small demonstration event on a farm in Cambridgeshire, close to where the training had taken place, and this magazine was invited to attend. The land was heavy and dry on top, but much wetter and more slippery underneath and some heavy rain showers during the day made conditions for the demonstration almost ideal, allowing the benefits of
the track system to be clearly seen. Behind the Rowtrac was a Great Plains 4.2m SLD tine and disc cultivator, which took plenty of pulling in the working conditions. The cab is immediately familiar to anyone used to the wheeled Magnum, and the CVT transmission made it easy to get the best from the machine. The engine speed was set at 1,800rpm at a working speed of approximately 8kph, providing flexibility as the draft requirement varied with the engine’s flat torque curve and constantly variable transmission ratio compensating easily. Driving across the tramlines, the ride is smoother than on a wheeled tractor due to the long track sections in contact with the ground, and the operator’s suspension seat soaked up any vibrations easily. A ride on the passenger seat, without suspension, meant the tracks were more noticeable, the ride harsher than would have been the case on large tyres, but never uncomfortable. In work, the tracks provided noticeably better traction than would have been possible with tyres and the engagement of the tracks with the top surface meant there was no noticeable slip during acceleration, even with the tines of the SLD deep in the ground. Looking out of the rear window, the small amount of slip was visible from the broken top surface behind each track, and the disturbance increased when accelerating hard from standstill or when cultivating heavier areas of the field.
Perfect match with RTK Paul had explained clearly the benefits of the front wheels over twin-tracks when operating with automatic steering in conjunction with RTK, and cultivating diagonally across the tramlines clearly demonstrated the argument. Watching the front wheels as first one track, then the other crossed the tramline and then as the SLD’s tines met the compacted soil
on one side and then the other, the steering was constantly correcting but the front wheels twitched just a few degrees from centre, keeping the tractor on track with no noticeable variation from the operator’s seat. The headland turns were also interesting, with the front wheels setting the direction of travel and the turns completed with the same precision as would be the case with a wheeled tractor. Keen to test the theory regarding reduced ridging of the land, tight turns were executed, but although it was easy to see where the machine had manoeuvred, the disturbance was just a few inches deep and would cause no problems for following field operations or crops. Some uneven areas in the field, including the path of an old farm track where some large lumps of rubble were ‘excavated’, gave the SLD and the Rowtrac a challenge, as the subsoil legs disappeared almost down to the cultivator frame. At this point the travel speed reduced as the CVT transmission adjusted and the engine growl increased and while it was possible to see increased track slip, there was no problem maintaining enough traction at any time.
Flexibility appeal Case IH is excited about the potential for the new tractor, believing its flexibility will be its main appeal. “It will probably replace some of our smaller Quadtrac sales,” said Paul, “but we expect most demand to be from farmers who want to replace conventional high horsepower wheeled tractors as well as some twin-track crawlers. The Rowtrac is quite at home on the road, no wider
Case IH product specialist Paul Freeman said the Rowtrac is expected to replace sales of twin-track crawlers as well as some larger wheeled tractors and smaller models in the Case IH Quadtrac range. The ‘four points of contact’ track and wheel concept allows most of the advantages of a wheeled tractor in terms of versatility, with the performance benefits of a twintrack crawler, but with greatly reduced damage during tight headland turns.
than a conventional wheeled tractor, but with more ground contact than a tractor on dual wheels, and much easier to move around than a twintrack crawler. It needn’t be just for cultivations either; if an extra tractor is needed on a grain trailer, then this is a practical alternative, and it will be equally at home carrying out grassland harvesting activities such as mowing the tracks providing a stable platform for the implement and reducing the possibility of soil contamination through ground contact. For drilling arable crops, the tracks will provide stability and accurate depth control, and there is no reason why it can’t carry out spraying and fertiliser applications.” All Rowtracs sold in the UK will have front linkage fitted as standard and a higher specification cab than the European version tested, including a plush leather seat with pneumatic suspension. The Rowtrac will be displayed at Cereals, and a demonstration tour will commence in late summer. Prices are yet to be confirmed. ■
The new Rowtrac was demonstrated on a Cambridgeshire farm, its owner a customer of Case IH main dealer Collings Bros. Dealer sales director Tony Fincham was delighted to be able to invite potential customers to take an early test-drive; “Our sales staff at the event reported an excellent day resulting in many enquiries and requests for demonstrations during the autumn. Many visitors had seen details about the Rowtrac in the farming press and were intrigued, but wanted to see the machine in action to see how it performed in the field, and conditions on the day were very good, presenting a challenge for the machine. “We invited customers who are users of large wheeled tractors, twin-track crawlers and Quadtracs, including several users of older lower-horsepower Quadtracs which are of similar power to the Rowtrac being demonstrated and they were impressed with its size and versatility. Feedback was very positive and we had one farmer who expressed regret that he had recently ordered a new twin-track machine, once he had had an opportunity to work a couple of bouts in the field. There was a lot of good, open interest and we believe the Rowtrac will be ideally suited to our customer base, and farms in this area,” he added.

Financing farming With six directors with a combined finance broking and agricultural industry knowledge of 140 years, Business Finance Brokers continues to grow, both in terms of business written and feet on the ground – despite the UK finance broker market being such a competitive one. Business Finance Brokers has a wide range of funding sources available, providing existing and new customers with access to a variety of asset finance product solutions, primarily to the agricultural, ground-care and construction sectors. The business has wellestablished relationships and partnership agreements in place with the UK’s top finance companies, ensuring that the right finance packages and competitive interest rates are always available. Today, more than 70 per cent of Business Finance Brokers’ business is generated from either existing customers, customer referrals or
through established relationships with Financial Conduct Authority (FCA)-compliant suppliers. It is able to provide local representation in most areas of the UK. Following the FCA’s responsibility of regulating the consumer credit market from the Office of Fair Trading, Kevin Ayres, Business Finance Brokers’ managing director, took the opportunity to restructure the company and allow its team to operate under a single Consumer Credit Licence with administrative support and compliance management system. This allows the team members more time in the field to give the personal service their customers have grown to enjoy. This is one of the factors they believe leads to the amount of repeat business. Kevin, founder of the company, has many years as an independent
finance broker and has worked for NFU Mutual Finance and ING Lease in the past. Having worked in the agricultural finance industry, also with NFU Mutual Finance, for 20 years, director Ruth Wheeler has spent the past six years as a finance broker working in affiliation with Business Finance Brokers. Director John Bellamy (left) has more than 19 years’ experience in the asset finance industry – again initially with NFU Mutual Finance. For the past six years he’s spent time as a broker, operating in affiliation with Business Finance Brokers, providing asset-based hire purchase and leasefunding solutions to small- and mediumsized rural businesses. Another director, Peter Ayres (right) has
been an independent finance broker since 2008, working in affiliation with Business Finance Brokers. He previously worked for Zetor UK as sales manager and has 41 years’ experience in the farming industry. Grant McIntyre, (right) director, is a 25-year veteran of the finance industry. He also has spent the past six years working in conjunction with Business Finance Brokers offering lease and hire purchase solutions to rural businesses. Finally, the newest recruit is Richard Holman. He joined Business Finance Brokers in February of this year as director, bringing with him a wealth of experience as an inputs finance specialist.
Versatile stubble harrows Grégoire Besson is launching its new Crossland range of mounted and semi-mounted stubble harrows. The new harrows come with a range of accessories that are designed for levelling and finishing and can be adapted for use in various conditions. The versatile 3m mounted Crossland comes with a choice of tines that are available in 230 or 306mm spacing. It offers high clearance, with 800mm spacing between the rows of tines and 700mm under-beam clearance.
The tines are the second generation of the Eurochisel tine with individual height adjustment, all-new cast and moulded parts, and protection of the lower nut in the tine. The tine is capable of working to a depth of 300mm and has a trip loading of 450kg at the point as standard, with an option of 340kg. A wide range of wearing metal is available with a “massive” choice of wing and point options, the French manufacturer says. Rear accessories include a single or double crumbler roller, following
harrows or the new Impak roller. The latter leaves a “perfect” consolidated finish in one pass with a choice of scraper options to suit any soil conditions. As an option there is also a row of levelling tines or discs available to work ahead of the rear roller. On the 306mm spacing, a large wing and point are standard to achieve maximum soil movement in

ATV off the road? No problem! Suzuki’s Courtesy ATV scheme has once again helped to keep a farmer’s business going – this time during a busy lambing season. The scheme offers customers the use of a new Suzuki ATV when any ATV is taken to an authorised dealer for service or repair work – regardless of the make or model. The scheme was set up in recognition of the fact that ATVs are such vital tools for farmers’ everyday needs. Taking part in the initiative in March, Chris Anderson and son David, of Gulberwick, Shetland, were able to continue tending to their sheep and young ewes while their own machine was undergoing a service.
With assistance from Suzuki dealer Garriock Bros, the farmers were loaned a Suzuki LT-AP500XP KingQuad for three days. They were so impressed with it that they decided to purchase one for use at both of their holdings in Gulberwick and Skeld. It will allow the pair to access the far reaches of their land easier and quicker than before, and save time and effort when feeding sheep. Chris says: “The KingQuad 500 with power steering is an excellent all-round machine. The addition of power steering gives ease of manoeuvrability, great control and responsiveness. “Plus, the low box allows us to
reduce revs and speed, which is essential for control when on steep ground and rough terrain.” Garriock Bros’ Ian Leiper says: “This initiative has been a great marketing tool for both us and Suzuki in Shetland as it allows our potential new customers to try before they buy and confirms to them the quality of build and design of Suzuki ATVs. “We’ve also been able to offer this Courtesy ATV to existing Suzuki customers who put their quads in for service, giving them a taste of the latest product developments from Suzuki. “I’m not aware of any other manufacturer who offers anything like this.”

Partners in parts Kramp is the largest European wholesaler for parts and accessories for farming, forestry, grass-care and construction. It’s made its name thanks to its extensive range, high stock levels and fast delivery. With the publication of its annual report it points to the importance of its partnerships. In fact the title of the annual report is ‘The Essential Partner’. The group’s CEO Eddie
Perdok says: “A good example is our partnership with tractor manufacturers Agco and SDF. “As partners we complement each other and, together, we can offer a complete package, which means that our customers don’t need to worry about parts and accessories. “We also want to develop similar partnerships with other manufacturers.” From its headquarters in
Varsseveld in The Netherlands, the company is active in all European countries. It spent much time and energy last year streamlining its range with that of Grene, with which it merged in 2013. The firm promises a high level of investment again this year, including a further strengthening of its IT systems to maintain and increase the lead it has in e-business. It will also be expanding its
distribution centres in Konin in Poland and Poitiers in France.

A spent shotgun cartridge scheme also operates within the business, with
many shoots and country estates now recycling all their cartridges. Kate adds: “This is a very exciting time for us as a group. We’re very privileged to have John on board. “ He represents the next generation of farmers, who all need to be conscious of the duty of care that they have for waste produced on farm, along with the impact this can have on the environment, she says. ■

Responsible waste disposal Farmers in the York area now have access to a new farm waste recycling service. Working in conjunction with Agri. cycle, DBG Recycling has opened the site at Westow and local farmer John Hodsman will be running it as a collection point. Recycling through the DBG scheme ensures that the maximum is recycled into usable products and that only a
minimum ends up in landfill. The scheme has been endorsed by the district council, which states: “Ryedale District Council supports this landfill diversification scheme and agrees that, by recycling farm waste in this way, it delivers the best practical environmental option.” DBG (Agriculture) managing director Kate Parker says: “We collect and/or receive farm waste and have

Contractor has the job covered Award-winning Stepside Agri certainly lives up to its reputation of being a first-class general agricultural contractor. Established in 1975 by Gareth James, who has since been joined by sons Daniel and Edward, it provides virtually every service to its customers within 20 miles of its home base in Cardigan, Mid-Wales, in one of the most productive dairy-farming regions of British farming. However, it’s probably best-known for its handling of slurry waste from the dairy industry, typically applying an average 15 million gallons every year. While it’s important that ground compaction and over-application are avoided at all costs, the irony is that the time of year when most slurry needs to be disposed of is usually the time of year when the ground conditions are at their worst. Typically Stepside Agri uses slurry tankers with a splash plate giving a 9—12m spread through the months of October–January, but mainly employ an umbilical system from January through to September. Daniel says: “We can often spread up to 2,500 gallons of slurry per acre,
and frequently use special holding tanks that can take up to 12,000 gallons, from where we can pump through an umbilical system for up to two miles distance.” To avoid soil compaction and structural damage, Stepside uses Major 2600-gallon tankers on 800 tyres, which give excellent flotation – with the fifth having recently joined the fleet. With much of its delivery requirements from farm to field being as much as 10 miles, the tanker also has to run smoothly behind the tractor. Daniel states: “We’ve had a number of different makes of tanker before, but none compares to the Major, which we bought from the Tallis Amos Group in Narberth, which has given excellent after-sales service.” Stepside specified its Major with a 13500 MEC pump that has a “tremendous” amount of suction. Generally tankers are prone to sucking sand and stones which, if left, tends to limit payloads to the fields. But the Major is designed such that debris is pushed straight to the sump and doesn’t build up like other tankers, needing less cleaning and

causing less downtime. The Major has a heavy-duty 6mm steel tank and two internal baffles to aid stability and strength. The chassis is independent from the tank and can flex without causing damage to the tank barrel. Daniel adds: “Our 2600LGP has a large access door at the back and we specified a frontal access panel so we can check regularly for stones and debris.
“What we like about Major Equipment is that we can specify what we want and it’ll build it for us. We’ve been very happy with everything about the Major tanker and the way the dealer looks after us. “They are the only ones we operate because they are far superior to anything else on the market. “The reliability of a machine is critical. It helps us maintain a highclass service for our customers.” ■

The well-attended open day took place in mid-April.
Timing and weather perfect for successful open day A Bedfordshire dealer open day, combined with a moisture meter testing clinic, was very well attended. David Williams was there. Claas main dealer Oliver Agriculture Ltd and JCB and Challenger main dealer, and sister company Oliver Landpower Ltd, staged the open day at its Wandon End, Beds headquarters in mid-April. Farmers and contractors in the area were well up to date with field work and made the most of the opportunity to get their annual meter checks completed and to view the latest equipment on offer. The 2015 event followed a similar formula to the company’s previous 15 successful and popular annual open days. The dealer has three depots; Wandon End and Bicester, Oxfordshire from which both the Landpower and Agriculture divisions operate and Kings Langley, Herts, which includes just the Landpower business. Customers are
looked after across the local areas as well as further afield. A wide range of machinery franchises are represented including Sumo; Lemken; McConnel; Amazone; Hardi; Teagle; Twose; Larrington Trailers; Kawasaki; Logic; Strimech and Topcon, along with Isuzu trucks from Oliver Landpower. While an equally comprehensive line-up is available from the Agriculture division which includes Great Plains; Horsch; Maschio; KRM; Cherry Products; Reco, Cousins; Richard Western; Opico; Dowdeswell; Knight; Kramer; Sulky and Martin Lishman. Representatives and specialists from many of the brands were on-site to assist Olivers’ staff in dealing with customer enquiries. Combined with the open day was
The Isuzu vehicle franchise was taken on by the Landpower division in September 2013. “It didn’t clash with anything we were doing already and we were aware that 30 per cent of all Isuzu trucks are sold into agricultural situations,” explained Oliver Landpower sales director Charlie Glenister. “We have had considerable success already, supplying our existing customers, but also gaining new ones within other industries, such as the building trade. We sold 55 pick-ups in our first year which was pleasing and the standard five-year or 125,000-mile warranty is reassuring to buyers. Fuel economy is superb and the 3.5t towing capacity is just what is needed. The range ticks all the boxes,” he added.
a Martin Lishman Moisture Meter Grain Clinic, one of 30 organised by the company in various UK locations between January and June. The clinics allow visitors to bring along their moisture meters for testing and calibration, at a fixed cost of £11 per unit which includes a calibration certificate which can be used for quality assurance purposes. Specialists are present to advise users on correct technique and any make of meter can be brought for testing. In the
event of failure, the meters can be submitted to Martin Lishman for repair or replacements can be purchased including the company’s own brand; Field Check, as well as Protimeter models. Two new JCB 4000-series Fastracs were at the event, one of which was available for test-driving on roads around the depot, complete with a high specification Larrington trailer. Oliver Landpower sales director Charlie Glenister said the event had been a huge success and a great opportunity to launch the all-new JCB 4000 series tractors to customers, giving them the opportunity to drive it. “We see this product contributing to further growth of the Landpower business with six tractors already ordered for delivery during the coming season. The interest from customers in this tractor has been remarkable.” Oliver Agriculture sales director David Jarman hailed the day a great success with well over 300 visitors. “Holding an open day is a fantastic opportunity to catch up with new and existing customers, in a relaxed and friendly atmosphere where their future needs can be discussed. Interest was strong in all product areas with many enquiries and several orders taken on the day. This annual event has grown considerably since we restructured our trading businesses in 2008,” he said.
Mark Cooper of Henlow, Beds-based AS & JS Cooper is pictured with a Claas tedder similar to one operated on his family farm. The mixed arable and beef unit includes approximately 80ha (200 acres) of crops and a 400-head Aberdeen Angus and Hereford cattle herd, producing beef for Waitrose. “I have always been an Oliver customer and use two JCB telescopic handlers, a Claas 640 Arion tractor, a Claas combine and a rake tedder and mower,” he said. The Arion is used mainly for haulage tasks and with a diet feeder, its 50kph transmission and cab and front axle suspension making it ideal for the large amount of transport work necessary explained Mark. “It is a CISspecification, equipped with the Hexashift transmission, and we bought it following a demonstration as the operator was keen. It has a good warranty package too, which is reassuring, but we have had it for approximately a year and it has been very good. Our previous tractor was five years old, of a different brand and with a basic gearbox, so the Claas with its 24x24 shuttle transmission and its 1,000rpm Eco PTO operates the diet feeder much more efficiently. Our Claas mower and rake are both under three years old and the 9m tedder was bought last year and performs well. We have a separate business producing hay and silage for equine use so we need up to date, reliable kit and the Claas machines are ideal. “The back-up from Claas and Olivers is very good and we run a Claas combine which is quite elderly, but we can always get hold of parts when needed and the service staff are always available,” he added. Mark was also taking advantage of the Martin Lishman moisture meter clinic. “I bring it along every year. It is convenient and much easier than having to send it away for checking, and I receive the certificate too,” he explained. More over page...

...More on previous page MJ Smith & Son farm at Oaktree Farm, Langford, Beds growing combinable crops on 149ha (368 acres) of which the average field size is just 5ha (12 acres). “It used to be market garden crop production,” explained David Quinlan, (left) who was at the event with Donald Smith and is pictured with Lemken UK general manager Paul Creasy and a new Lemken Rubin disc cultivator, which had been ordered by the farm prior to the open day. “We were using a 5.5m trailed cultivator previously,” explained David, “but it was awkward with our small field size because we wasted time struggling to get into the corners. This linkage-mounted set of discs with hydraulic folding will allow us to negotiate narrow lanes and field entrances more easily, and we can reverse into the corners which will be much more efficient and easier for the operator.” The Lemken discs were recommended to the farm by Oliver Landpower sales representative, Michael Payne who looks after the farm’s account. “We will use the cultivator on winter wheat, winter barley, spring barley, oilseed rape and bean stubbles, and possibly on onion ground,” added David. “Behind the combine, we want to chop the top couple of inches as part of a black-grass control regime and we will use the discs on seedbeds where needed. We had a demonstration recently on overwintered ploughed land and the results were impressive. The discs did a good job. We hadn’t had many dealings with Olivers previously, but many of those farming around us speak well of the service and back-up and we are sure we will be well looked after.”
KRM products supplied by the dealer include fail mowers, drills, seeders and spreaders, but area sales representative David Wagstaff (pictured) said his company’s Bogballe spreaders account for most sales in the area. “It is a broad customer base, including livestock and arable farmers, and a range of specifications are supplied including the latest with our dynamic section control,” he said. “It is proving popular and the greatest benefits are when working with the wider spread widths. There is growing appreciation of the benefits available and we are finding existing Bogballe users upgrading, as well as those moving from competitor machines.”
Since replacing its conventional tractors with JCB Fastracs during the mid-1990s, Felden Park Farms, near Hemel Hempstead, Herts, has come to rely on the brand for its versatility and performance. The land totals approximately 400ha (1,000 acres) between two locations, one with tricky Chiltern clay cap soils and the other easier to farm, but hilly, explained manager Howard Whybrow (left). “We were using four conventional tractors but had a demonstration of an early JCB 155 machine. We could see significant advantages in the rear load platform which meant we could utilise the machine more efficiently and we bought a 155, and two years later we bought a 185, eventually running three 185s. We then bought a 7270, which was upgraded last year to an 8310 and the 185s were upgraded to 3230s. We currently use an 8310 and a 3230 for all farm tasks,” he added. “We were keen to make the most of the machine’s abilities from the start and had a purpose-built drill with a hopper on the rear platform. We used a demount sprayer on the 185 but have now moved to a trailed unit for extra capacity. Fertiliser is applied using an Amazone 4200 Ultra and, with the Fastrac, it makes a superb combination.” Machinery operator Graham Evans (right) said the Fastrac’s light weight means that even larger versions can be used for lighter farm tasks. “We even find it excellent for rolling and the tractors are used for corn carting, min-till cultivations and drilling. Most crops are established using min-till cultivations, but a third of the land is ploughed each year in rotation. The 8310 does a lot of heavier draft work including ploughing with a 6f Dowdeswell Delta 120, which was used at 16in behind the 155s but is set at 18in behind the 8310. Whatever we are doing with the tractors, the superb suspension provides exceptional grip and they perform well. We will certainly be expecting to change our current 3230 for the new 4000 series model when it is due - we wouldn’t consider anything else,” he said. “Most of our machinery is bought and serviced through Olivers. The staff are friendly and honest and we don’t ever feel we are being ‘ripped-off ’. We receive quick and efficient service too, especially from Adrian Hewis who looks after us for sales.”
Pictured enjoying refreshments on offer at the open day are (l-r) Olivia Whitaker, Sam Bacon and James Bacon. Sam and James were at the event looking at Claas tractors as their contracting business; Acorn Services Herts Ltd, which specialises in silage operations and muck spreading, is in need of a larger model to replace its current Claas tractor.

Sumo’s latest Mixidisc cultivator and DTS drill were creating interest in the Oliver Landpower area. “Growers are trying not to move more soil than necessary during crop establishment as it costs money, and also increases weed problems,” explained Sumo area sales manager for the south, Richard Hales. “The dealer has recently taken an order for a 7m Mixidisc from a farmer who said it is just what he needs to leave a level finish after ploughing, its weight providing an ability to penetrate well and the levelling paddles ensuring the surface is even.” During the coming Autumn, the dealer will be running a demonstration 6m DTS drill as well as a 5m Mixidisc, due to the high levels of interest from potential users. “It is a good pro-active sales team which looks after customers well,” said Richard. “The business runs on good old-fashioned family values and farming is all about the confidence generated by this kind of relationship with customers. It has been a good spring in terms of enquiries and requests for demonstrations and we are seeing large numbers of confirmed orders as a result.”
Cultivations equipment to tackle the black-grass problem featured within the Dal-Bo display area. “Dal-Bo is our fastest growing franchise and we sold many machines from the range during the past year,” explained Oliver Agriculture sales manager William Helliwell. “We receive excellent support from Steve Atkin and his team and many of our sales have been the result of referral, as neighbouring farmers have recommended the products, resulting in requests for demonstrations and sales. “We are delighted with the increased sales in the area,” added Steve. “Features such as the paddles available for our rolls are in demand as they provide a level finish when rolling ploughed land, and are great for freshening up the surface. The dealer team supplies equipment from across our range, but mainly seedbed cultivators and the rolls, with 12, 15 and 16m sets in highest demand as well as 8m versions with paddles.” Dal-Bo UK sales manager Steve Atkin is pictured (left) with William Helliwell.
The Martin Lishman Grain Clinic was well attended throughout the day with farmers and growers taking advantage of the opportunity to have their meters tested.
Developed in the UK to assist in the fight against black-grass is the Opico Micro-Pro 16 Avadex applicator. Since its first showing at Lamma in January, it is now available to order and is receiving high levels of interest, explained the Opico team. It has a 12m application width and uses a hydraulic-driven fan to distribute the herbicide through its application booms across the distribution outlets. Designed to be mounted on a 3-point linkage it is priced at £13,931 and was attracting considerable interest. “Black-grass is foremost in many farmers’ minds,” explained Opico area sales manager Glenn Bootman. Pictured (l-r) are the Opico team at the open day; Glenn, Maschio specialist David Day, Maschio key account manager Carlo Facchini and Opico sales representative for the west of the UK, John Hulland.
Horsch area sales manager for East Anglia, John McAuley is pictured at the open day (right), with Oliver Agriculture representative Rex Hedges, who looks after customers in parts of Beds, Bucks and Herts and the latest Horsch Tiger cultivator which is proving popular with the dealer’s customers. Available in 3, 4 and 6m working widths, several of the Tigers have been sold by the dealer during its first season of availability. The tyre packer on the rear provides even consolidation across the width encouraging black-grass and other weed seeds to chit and allowing effective control. Low-disturbance legs provide deep loosening without bringing clods and weed seeds to the surface while the discs provide an even tilth for shallow cultivations. “Working on free draining soils, users have found that only one pass with the Tiger followed by a pass with discs is needed before drilling,” explained Rex. “Compared with other machines, the Tiger is praised for its very level finish, and the brands high retained value provides low cost of ownership.” The Tiger 4MT displayed is Oliver’s new demonstrator available for customers to try during the coming season. “Oliver Agriculture is a very good dealer for us,” commented John, “and has a team of dedicated sales staff, all committed to the products they supply.”

...More on previous page Watton-at-Stone, Hertfordshirebased Bluebury Contractors Ltd partners David Sworder (left) and Mike Smith (right) are pictured with Oliver Group chairman John Humphreys. The farming and contracting business offers its services to farmers in the area, its mainly arable operations totalling 1,820ha (4,500 acres) on a mix of rented and contract-farmed land. Cropping is mainly cereals with some grass, and much of the work is stubble to stubble crop management and the business also specialises in borage swathing and forestry work. Two Challenger crawlers; an 855C and a 765C are operated and drilling is carried out using two Horsch drills, a 4 and 8m. The business also operates a JCB loader. The two Challengers carry out all the heavy cultivations tasks as well as the drilling and a new mole drainer has recently been purchased for the larger machine, and is due to start work on fallow land shortly. “We have been dealing with Olivers since the business started more than 50 years ago,” said Mike. “It is a good family firm and we always feel welcome when we call in for anything. Customers are treated well and the phone is always answered, no matter when we call. When problems do occur there is never any attempt by anyone to run away from the problem and the relationship has become very easy.” One of the latest acquisitions by the business has been a new high specification Amazone ZA-TS fertiliser spreader. “We bought it earlier this year and it has already applied fertiliser to more than 4,040ha (10,000 acres),” explained David. We run it through an iPad linked to the Amatron 3 control box to achieve variable rate applications and it has proved a wonderful machine. It has variable spread width control for headland operation, and it has been spot-on. John Barnett, Oliver’s Amazone specialist has been such a great help, and as it was the first of this type that he has worked with he has been learning with me and I am very impressed with his enthusiasm. Fertiliser is expensive and being able to apply it precisely where needed in the required quantities using the new spreader is a real benefit,” he added.

Trading as Alistair G Clark and farming at Kimpton, Herts, Alistair (right) and main machinery operator Adam Hills are pictured at the event. Approximately 260ha (650 acres) are farmed by the business, and cropping is mainly cereals but there is also a small livery enterprise and a general agricultural contracting service is offered, including harvesting of combinable crops. “This is the second generation of my family dealing with this depot and we tend to buy most of our machinery from the dealer. In the past Olivers had different brands to offer, but when they took on different franchises we followed them, as the service is so good and we enjoy such a good relationship with the staff. It is no good operating the best machinery in the world if there is no back-up in the event of problems, so the dealer is our main priority when choosing equipment.” Recent purchases include a Claas 650 Arion with Hexashift transmission and other machines bought through the dealer include the farm’s Claas Tucano 430 combine, new in 2011 and the fifth Claas operated by the farm since it purchased its first of the brand; a Senator bought in 1980. “We get on well with Claas combines and they have all been reliable despite being well used while we own them,” he added. The farm’s plough, cultivators and sprayer as well as a JCB 526-55 telescopic handler, new in 2010, were all bought through the dealer. “We are looked after well by the whole team, but tend to deal mainly with Rex Hedges and David Jarman. They are all very good,” he said.
“We are very pleased with the attendance at the open day,” said William Helliwell. “Farmers are up to date so are taking time out to have a look at what is new and discuss their requirements with our staff. The weather has been excellent in recent weeks and crops which were struggling have largely caught up, except the grassland, which is a bit behind still. We seem to be bucking the general trend within the industry, as our sales are similar to last year. Our tractor sales are increasing, we are busy on products such as the Dal-Bo rolls and our other cultivation products from Great Plains and Horsch are all in demand. The Great Plains X-Press cultivator is proving popular, along with the CultiPress for heavier land farmers in Bedfordshire and Herts. The Horsch Sprinter drill and Tiger cultivator are selling well, and we are looking forward to an autumn demonstration campaign during which we will be allowing farmers to find out for themselves just how effective the Horsch Joker and Pronto machines are. “Our main brand, Claas, is proving exceptionally popular, the latest tractors, handlers, combines and green harvest products providing users with the best range we have ever been able to offer, which has led to a great increase in sales,” he added. Pictured (l-r) are William Helliwell, David Jarman, Rex Hedges and Paul Green.

Oliver Landpower and Agriculture customer JPF Waddup of Coldharbour Farm, Hatfield, Herts has recently ordered new JCB and Claas telescopic handlers. Farming just under 400ha (1,000 acres) between three units the farm is mixed, with arable crops as well as grass, sold as haylage, for equine use. “We deal equally with both sides of the business,” explained Jeremy Waddup, and recent purchases have included a 6m Amazone drill, bought six months ago and a new Larrington trailer last year. We have recently purchased a Great Plains cultivator and McHale bale wrappers too. The service is very good from everyone here.” Explaining the decision to buy both makes of handler, Jeremy commented that a JCB was operated previously along with several tractor loaders but the decision had been made to move away from the tractors for materials handling, replacing them with a second telescopic handler. The JCB had been very successful, so the decision was made to replace it with another of similar specification, following a successful demonstration of one of the latest models with an improved and updated design. While considering options for the second machine, the farm’s Oliver Agriculture sales representative, Paul Green, had lent the farm a demonstration Claas Scorpion to try, resulting in the purchase of a new 7055 7m 5.5t capacity model, to be used for grain and bale handling as well as bale haulage on the road. “We very much like the hydrostatic transmission and the Deluxe cab option is very comfortable, with all the controls falling easily to hand,” explained main operator Michael Waddup. Having all the functions for the boom and transmission on the main joystick is really convenient. We spend long working hours in the machines and need something which won’t be tiring to operate,” he added. Pictured (l-r) from JPF Waddup are; Adrian Jarvis, Jeremy Waddup, Glen Gear, Michael Waddup and Oliver Agriculture salesman Paul Green.
Larrington Trailers on show included one of the latest ‘Farmer’ specification models, launched this year at the Lamma Show, and a higher specification ‘Harvester’, which was in use behind a JCB Fastrac 4000-series tractor, travelling around local roads and allowing potential buyers to evaluate the benefits of the new tractor. The ‘Farmer’ trailer features a base specification but with all the latest components and capable of being upgraded to meet specific demands of users. The ‘Harvester’ has a high-specification ‘half-pipe’ body, and is ideal for tipping in lower buildings as it empties at a lower angle. “Oliver Landpower has been a dealer for approximately three years,” explained Larrington Trailers sales manager, Simon Baxter, who is pictured with the demonstration Fastrac and Larrington trailer combination. “In an area with strong demand for grain and muck transport our trailer range has proved a successful franchise for the dealer with all variants proving popular including the highest-specification ‘Majestic’ versions for use behind Fastracs.”

Tractor choice proves ideal for Northumbrian mixed farm Farmers Guide machinery editor David Williams visited the farm to find out how one of the latest models is meeting all the farm’s requirements.
The John Deere 6110RC with its H340 front loader is proving ideal for the Northumberland mixed farm.
When their John Deere 6320 tractor was due for updating, Northumberland father and son farmers Peter and Edward Arthur were keen to gain power and performance, without increasing the tractor’s size due to the high number of low-roofed traditional farm buildings and limited space in their cattle yards. The traditional family farm consists of approximately 400ha (1,000 acres) split between three blocks up to 10 miles apart, the land divided almost equally between arable and grassland, the grass used for cattle grazing and silage for feed. The main farm is Brunton Mill Farm, near Newcastle and there is also land at Kirkley March, near Ponteland and Corbridge, near Hexham. There are 140 suckler cows; mainly Limousin Cross and Charolais Cross, with most of the young stock sold at the local Hexham store
market at 20 months. Approximately 130 calves are produced per year and, at the time of Farmers Guide’s visit, in early May, the spring calving had almost finished. “We are very traditional in that we calve in the spring, let the stock out for the summer and use our own barley, grass and straw,” said Edward, “but our old buildings don’t lend themselves to modern diet mixerfeeders so we tend to make up the food mix manually and then feed by tractor and through augers.” Previously, calves were kept and fattened on-farm, but increased cereal prices combined with the convenience of an excellent market for store cattle local to the farm, at Hexham, meant the decision was made to sell the calves younger for fattening elsewhere, reducing the feed requirement and allowing more barley to be sold on the open market.
Most of the store cattle are at the Kirkley farm while all the breeding heifers and cows are at Brunton Mill Farm, the third site at Corbridge used for summer grazing and arable crop production, with contractors doing most of the arable field work. The John Deere 6320 had served the farm well but, when investing in new machinery, the Arthurs are always keen to consider a range of options. As well as being capable of working within the low buildings and having the ability to manoeuvre tightly in the small yards, the new tractor had to be easy to operate. “We have part-time winter stockmen so there can be extended periods during which they are not operating the machine, and we know that on a few occasions the high-specification electronic controls of the 6320 had caused confusion. The PTO, which engaged electronically, used to be ‘locked out’ using the control screen when not in use for added safety and the part-time users didn’t know how to reactivate it and believed there was a fault when they tried to use it. Ease of use and logical controls are helpful in our situation.” The main task for the new tractor would be yard work with a front loader, as well as the grass field work including mowing with a rearmounted mower, raking and rowing up. It would also spend a lot of time on the road, between the holdings, with silage and bale trailers as well as towing a large livestock trailer, so a versatile specification was needed. Three contenders were selected, of different makes, including the new John Deere 6110RC, which had recently been introduced by the manufacturer. This offered slightly more power through the engine’s boost function, available in certain operating conditions, and had most of the advantages of the manufacturer’s high-specification
Main operator Gary Fleming says the cab is excellent, with greatly improved control layout over the previous 6320 model. He especially likes the glass panel in the roof which makes it feel more spacious and improves visibility for high-level loader work.
‘R’-series but with a more compact frame, making it ideally suited to the requirements of a traditional mixed or livestock farm. “Two of the tractors we looked at needed Adblue,” explained Edward, “but as we haven’t anything else on the farm using the additive currently, this was seen as a disadvantage as we felt it likely that we would be caught out during busy periods, without a can handy. The John Deere required only diesel which meant there was one less thing to worry about.” The emissions control system used on the tractor recirculates a proportion of the exhaust gasses and uses a particulate filter, which has to run a self-cleaning programme at intervals. This can be programmed to operate automatically or manually and Edward said it has been no trouble; the only indication that it is operating being a light on the continued over... 06R68B

dashboard, and a slight increase in engine revs if it activates while the tractor is idling. “Having run two John Deeres on the farm, and been pleased with their reliability and performance, we were quite happy to opt for another of the same brand,” said Peter. “We are almost equi-distant between two John Deere dealers, one of which is Thomas Sherriff & Co Ltd, with a depot at Alnwick, convenient for our farms. Apart from the odd filter purchase, we had not had dealings with the company previously, but had heard very good reports about the service offered. The sales representative, Peter Thompson, called to discuss our requirements, and what really impressed us was that he knew his stuff, and answered our questions well, and we never got the impression that he was trying to pressure us into buying something he wanted to sell.” “Having listened to Peter and Edward Arthur, and learned about their situation, I was confident that the new RC specification would be ideal for their farm, with the power and performance they needed on the road and in the field, and versatility in the yard,” explained Peter Thompson. “The John Deere H340 loader is an excellent match and easily
attached and removed, and I felt the combination would be a success. Being a new specification, there were few of the tractors around at the time, so I arranged for Peter and Edward to visit a dealer with a stock machine a few counties away so they could look around it and make sure they were happy with everything.” The specification chosen included mechanical PTO and hydraulic controls, a self-levelling loader, a passenger seat and a glass roof panel for the cab. For the first few months after the tractor arrived, it was operated by both the farm manager, Gary Fleming, and Edward, but now Gary looks after the keys, having developed a strong attachment to the machine. “I really like it,” said Gary. “The cab is slightly smaller than before, but has excellent visibility with a larger glass area and the space is better utilised with an excellent control layout. The glass roof makes the cab brighter and gives a more spacious feel and really helps visibility when the loader is at full height and when operating inside low buildings or when stacking bales. Although I worried initially that the extra glass would make it too hot during long sunny days in the field, this hasn’t been the case as the air conditioning is superb.
to operate our grass harvesting equipment,” said Gary. “On the road it is excellent, and the small amount of extra weight means it feels much more stable with the large trailer than the 6320 did.” Since the tractor arrived in June 2014, it has worked approximately 800 hours, and has been a great success. “During peak periods I can be in the cab for 12–13 hours per day,” added Gary, “but it is very comfortable, which helps." “In an ideal world we would have one large tractor for field and road work and a smaller one for the yard,” commented Edward, “but we can’t justify that, and because our telescopic handler is shared between locations, we have to have a tractor which can comfortably do everything needed. We have used Thomas Sherriff for servicing and every time we have called, someone has been out within a few days and staff have been friendly and accommodating, working around our farm needs. The new tractor uses noticeably less fuel than its predecessor and when we change it, which will probably be at 4–5 years old, we expect it to have held its value well. We are delighted with our choice of tractor and dealer.” ■

The traditional farm buildings restrict the size of tractor which can be used on the farm.
“The loader joystick includes speed control and gear selection through the auxiliary service button,” he continued, ”which means I can operate most driving and loader functions without moving my right hand from the joystick and that is a great help when loading bales in the field. The loader suspension improves comfort travelling over bumpy ground and the only thing I am not so keen on is the parallel linkage-operated self-levelling system. It works well, but our old loader didn’t have it and we were used to setting the bucket at just the right angle to tip at a suitable height, but we can’t do that with the new one. Without the parallel linkage the visibility to the front quarters would be improved too.” The low profile cab means the tractor is able to operate in the low buildings, but its lower mounting height means the steps are lower than on the previous tractor necessitating care when operating in very soft conditions. “We have one building in which we have to remove the flashing beacon but otherwise the overall size is just right, handling heavy trailers and bales with ease, and with the power needed to pull heavy loads on sloping land and

New Scottish Borders branch opening
Ancroft Tractors new depot opening at Kelso, Roxburghshire, was in late April and featured a wide selection of products from all the major brands represented.
The opening of a new depot at Kelso, by Scottish Borders dealer Ancroft Tractors Ltd, proved popular with farmers and contractors from throughout the dealer’s trading area. David Williams attended. Replacing a previous depot in the centre of the town, the new premises is adjacent to an industrial estate on the outskirts, making it much easier to access and providing much-needed space for the successful dealer. “The previous site had been outgrown many years ago, and we badly needed extra space and modern facilities which reflect the quality brands we offer,” explained area sales manager based at the new depot, David Hamilton. The main brands represented by the dealer include Massey Ferguson, Fendt and Challenger tractors as well as Merlo handlers, and implements from Sumo, Krone, Wrag, Larrington Trailers, Spearhead, Reco, NRH Engineering, NC and Teagle. Three depots serve the farming community, including Ancroft’s headquarters at Berwickupon-Tweed, Kelso and Macmerry in East Lothian. Held in late April, the open day was very well attended, despite ideal
field working conditions, and visitors travelled from across the trading area and from both sides of the national border. Representatives from all Ancroft’s branches were on-site to deal with enquiries and they were well supported by representatives from all the main suppliers, all reporting a busy event resulting in many enquiries and requests for quotes and demonstrations. “We were delighted by the large turnout of new and existing customers at the open day,” said Ancroft Tractors managing director Tom Brown. “The significant investment in our new depot shows our commitment to the Borders area and people, in the supply of quality products from our leading major brands. This combines with our on-going investment in manufacturer product training of our technicians, parts managers and sales staff to give customers the confidence they enjoy when dealing with us.”
pt The new building features a purposedesigned showroom stocking tools and sundries. Ancroft Tractors has recently been appointed an approved supplier for Dickies, and was offering a wide range of products embossed with the dealer logo. Dickies regional sales manager Jack McIvor is pictured (left) with Ancroft parts manager for all three depots, Martin Shaw and some of the branded clothing on offer.
At the open day were some of the latest models in Challenger’s range, including the flagship 875E developing up to 640hp from its Sisu V12 power unit. Challenger area sales manager for Scotland and the north of England, Ben Bell (left) is pictured with Ancroft Tractors managing director Tom Brown, and was present to help deal with enquiries. “Most are sold from the Berwick branch,” he explained, “as that area has many large cereal growers. Most sales are of the 7-series but there are 8-series machines out working too. Most are used for cultivations and a lot of drilling with 6 or 8m drills is carried out, the tracks providing stability and a level finish. There are also quite a few machines used for winter ploughing, the reduced compaction reducing the tendency to create deep wheelings which would need pulling out later. With a decent guidance system they are ideal for ploughing on-land as the system makes the job much easier.”

Alex Hastie farms as Alex Hastie & Co, Tranent, East Lothian. As well as farming approximately 231ha (570 acres) of arable crops including wheat, barley and potatoes grown for the chip shop market, the business has recently diversified to supply wood pellets for biomass boilers. “We had biomass boilers on the farm, but we didn’t feel we were getting best value for money due to the high cost of the wood pellets from our supplier, so we decided to start supplying them in the area ourselves,” explained Alex. “Highest demand is in the winter when we are quieter on our farm activities so the additional enterprise fits in well.” The farm operates two Massey Ferguson 6480 tractors and a larger 7618, all supplied from Ancroft’s Macmerry branch. “We deal with both the Macmerry and Kelso branches and receive fantastic service, from both. The staff are always happy to give advice over the phone first to try to solve problems as quickly as possible, but if they are needed then they come out quickly,” he said. “We deal with Colin Grigor for sales and Alan Ramsey for service and both are excellent.” Alex said the farm has been using Massey Ferguson for several decades, since his grandfather requested demonstrations of two competitor tractors and only the Massey Ferguson dealer was willing to leave the tractor for an extended test. “The tractor was used for a few days and grandfather was very impressed, and we have been Massey Ferguson users ever since,” he said. The farm’s latest purchase is the 7618, which carries a 63-plate and was new in 2013. “It is used mainly for seeding, haulage and on the bed tiller and has just had its 500-hour service,” he added. “We are very impressed.” Alex (centre) is pictured with Alan Ramsay (left) and Massey Ferguson area sales manager Joe Ford.
“Ancroft Tractors has represented Reco brands in the area for the past four to five years,” said Reco general sales and marketing manager Patrick Desmond. “The main product from the Sulky range sold by the dealer is the Xeos Pro drill and power-harrow combination, in both 3- and 4m working widths, but the full line-up of cultivation products is popular as well as our Strautmann mixer-wagons. The business is very successful and popular with farmers in the area, enjoying an excellent relationship. It is a traditional family firm,” he added. Pictured (l-r) Ovlac area manager Felix Berera and Reco representatives Stuart Dickson, Patrick Desmond and product support manager John Herron.
Fendt user Neil Ramsey, foreman for Hamish Morison Farming Ltd, based at West Moriston, is pictured (centre) with his son Archie, Fendt area sales manager for the north and Scotland Alan Whitlow and Ancroft’s Alan Renton, based at Kelso. The farm is allarable with most of the land owned although there is also some contractfarmed land included in the cropping. Winter barley, winter wheat and oilseed rape are the main crops and Neil commented that because all the cropping is winter cereals, the tractors have to work hard to get drilling completed in a short space of time. “The Fendts perform well and we have had no incidences where tractors have failed during the working season,” he said. “Our operators spend long hours in the cab and we have two different guidance systems in use; one tractor running Trimble and the other running Topcon, but both came through Ancroft. We have had guidance and auto-steer since 2008, having used it on a previous brand of tractor and we are convinced of the benefits offered. Running both systems currently is allowing us to compare performance.” Neil said he deals mainly with Alan for his machine purchases from the Kelso ranch, but that the Macmerry depot tends to provide the after-sales service. “Back-up is excellent and Alan Ramsay at Macmerry is exceptional, always keen to ensure we get the best out of our tractors,” he said. “We run Fendts for the reliability and they have always been excellent.” The farm’s first Fendt was an 820, which was operated for five years, and which was changed for a new 722 in 2014. Also operated is a 2012-model 720, and an older 716 bought new in 2011. “The latest 700 Vario models are great machines and the comfort provided by the new design cabs is up another level altogether compared with our earlier 716,” he added.
Mertoun Estate Farms foreman Keith McDougall attended the open day and is pictured (right) with David Hamilton. Keith explained that the farm is allarable; crops including wheat, oilseed rape, potatoes and oats. Ancroft Tractors supplies much of the estate’s machinery including a Challenger 865, Fendt 828 and 939 wheeled tractors and a Massey Ferguson 6490 and a 6180, and has already booked a demonstration of a Sumo cultivator for the coming season to subsoil and cultivate in one pass. “It is a large estate and we try to deal with a lot of local dealers but most of our tractors are from Agco. We deal with the Macmerry and Kelso branches and the back-up is good from the staff who are all well known to us. I have come along today to support the dealer and to see what is new. The telematics display is intriguing and I believe it will be More over page... something we will use in the future,” said Keith.

Krone machinery displayed large square balers, round balers, mowers, rakes and tedders, and one of the round balers on show was equipped with the optional tandem axle upgrade. Pictured with the twin-axle baler are (l-r) Krone area sales manager Peter Halley and brothers Tom and David Neill of R Neill & Sons. Farming and providing a contracting service the brothers have 260 dairy cows, 1,500 breeding sheep and farm 400ha (1,000 acres) of arable crops. The machinery fleet includes six Massey Ferguson tractors supplied by Ancroft including a 7620, two 6480s, two 6290s and a 4355 as well as a Merlo 32.6 telescopic handler; the fourth bought through Ancroft by the company. The contracting service includes all grassland operations as well as a bale wrapping service, primarily for silage bales. Most of the grassland machinery is Krone; the fleet including two 3.2m mowers; one front-mounted and one rear, the rear being new and having replaced a mower of another brand. “We bought our first Krone front-mounted mower two years ago and got on well with it and it is easier to operate two mowers of the same brand for compatibility of parts and servicing so we moved to Krone for the rear too,” Tom explained. Tedders operated include a Krone 7.7m 6-rotor model and the rake is a Krone Swadro 900 with twin rotors. Two Comprima round balers including a fixed chamber F125 for straw and hay as well as a twin-axle variable chamber V150XE with a chopper for silage and straw are used. “We operate on a lot of steep ground and the ride with the twin-axle upgrade is much improved. There is no comparison with the single axle machines. We can turn across any slope and over tramlines and on the road at high travel speed the baler tows well with no bouncing. The difference in performance definitely justifies the extra cost and we will almost certainly opt for twin axles on the fixed chamber machine when we upgrade.” “During the past six years or so we have seen Krone really up its game,” said David. “The quality of the kit has improved noticeably and the back-up is excellent. We know that if we have a problem we could always speak with the Krone representatives if necessary, although the service from Ancroft is excellent. Tom Brown looks after us very well. We had Krone balers originally 20 years ago, but moved away to another brand. That proved unsuccessful and we returned to Krone and believe the company to be unbeatable for grassland kit.”
Murray Potts of Messrs W Potts, based near Cornhill-on-Tweed is pictured (right) with branch sales manager Alan Renton. “We deal mainly with the Kelso depot, having bought our first machine from the dealer, a power-harrow drill combination, more than 20 years ago,” explained Murray. “During the past 8–10 years we have used the dealer more, and have purchased a Massey Ferguson 7626, used mainly for drilling with a 4m drill, and a 7618 used for spraying. Ancroft has also supplied our two telescopic handlers; both Merlo 32.6 models. We bought one, but kept the old trade in machine over harvest and we found it so handy having two available that we took the decision to buy the second Merlo. They suit us well.” Murray said the mixed farm has arable crops including wheat, barley, oilseed rape and beans and livestock including beef cattle and sheep. “We always look around at the options before making a purchase, and the final decision is dependent on price, the service available and the product,” he said. “We are not far from Ancroft’s Kelso and Berwick branches so the dealer is convenient for us, and the service we receive is good too.”
A range of products from Spearhead were displayed including a large Multicut topper. Area sales manager for the north of England and Scotland, Jim Campbell, said the Multicut models have proved particularly popular with Ancroft’s customers. “Most are sold through the Berwick depot, but all the branches are excellent. It is a good solid dealer and the staff are straightforward and easy to deal with. We know that whenever there is an issue the service team just couldn’t be more helpful and customers appreciate that. We have had a good year so far generally, and at the open day had lots of enquiries for hedgecutters including requests for quotes. It has been a good event.” Pictured; Ancroft area sales manager for north Northumberland, based at the Berwick Branch, Nick Douglas (left) with Jim Campbell.
Ian Fleming, pictured with Alan Renton, farms just outside Kelso and the family farming business trades as James Fleming & Sons. The land, totalling approximately 360ha (900 acres) is a mix of owned and contract-farmed and arable cropping includes barley, wheat, oilseed rape, potatoes and oats and there is a herd of fattening cattle, most of which are Continental. Two Massey Ferguson tractors are operated, including a 4-year-old 6480 and a 7618, which replaced another brand on the farm last year. “We didn’t run any Massey Fergusons until four years ago,” explained Ian, but we had heard that Ancroft was investing in larger premises in the town and that encouraged us, as it gave us confidence in the after-sales service which would be available. Alan looked after us and was easy to deal with so we bought our first Massey Ferguson. The back-up has been very good, and Neil McMillan’s attitude is that if an issue can’t be sorted over the phone then someone needs to be on site as soon as possible. We do still run other brands, as we tend to update the oldest tractor each time, but we will certainly consider Massey Ferguson again when we next change a machine, although it will all depend on the package offered.”

NRH ENGINEERING LTD MANUFACTURERS OF BRITISH BUILT AGRICULTURAL MACHINERY
SoilEssentials was at the event, demonstrating the latest Trimble precision farming technology, and promoting its essentials.net RTK network. “We have seen significant interest in the technology from grassland farms during the past six months, including many who are moving to controlled-traffic farming,” explained area sales manager Ian Thomson. “Often users look at base mapping systems initially, but quickly see the potential of more advanced equipment. Grass is seen as a valuable crop and the benefits of managing field operations to maximise quality and yields are significant. Automatic steering systems make it possible to mow at night, to keep ahead of the forage harvesters, and using precise guidance fertilisers, sprays and slurry applications can all be made from machines operating on set tramlines. Other applications include travelling in deep snow, with local roads and tracks pre-programed into the system, making snow clearing operations easy.” Ian said the increased legislation to accurately record slurry and fertiliser applications has meant use of the systems to produce field records is growing too, with Trimble’s Connected Farm allowing data to be transferred automatically by phone or by downloading to a USB for transfer to the farm office proving a popular investment and aiding efficiency of operations. “We work with all three of Ancroft’s branches, and whereas most of our business used to be with Fendt and Challenger customers we have seen many more systems fitted to Massey Fergusons in recent years,” he said. Ian is pictured (left) with David Hamilton.

NRH Engineering has been represented by Ancroft Tractors since approximately 2005. “The dealer supports us well and it is great to be here at this impressive new depot to support the dealer’s open day,” explained NRH Engineering managing director Neil Hopwood. “We’ve had a busy day dealing with enquiries from new and existing customers. Cambridge rolls are generating considerable interest, and the cultivator tines which mount on the paddle bars, providing extra tillage and levelling, are proving a popular option.”

Farming approximately 727ha (1,800 acres), and based at East Ancroft Farm, Berwick-upon-Tweed, Andrew Reed of RC Reed runs several Massey Ferguson tractors as well as Merlo loaders and other machinery supplied by the dealer. The family farm has a mix of owned and contract-farmed land, all of which is put down to arable ...More on previous page crops and permanent grass. Crops include winter and spring barley, winter wheat, oilseed rape, spring beans and vining peas, and the Massey Ferguson fleet includes a 7626, a 6499, two 6480s and two elderly 698s. “I grew up with Massey Ferguson but although I have tried other makes, I find the brand very good. The machinery operators both really like them too, and that is important to us,” Andrew explained. The Merlo handlers operated are a 34.7 and a larger 40.7, both also supplied by the dealer. “We deal mainly with the
Berwick depot and Grant Pyle looks after us very well. The after-sales is always good and the stores staff know the products and know what we run, making it easy to explain over the phone what is needed and resulting in us being supplied the correct parts. I’m delighted with the whole package from Ancroft. It makes it easy to do business and there is always a willingness to help. When we are considering buying a machine the company is always happy to lend us demonstrators to try.” Other products purchased include a 12t NC grain trailer and an NC slurry tanker as well as grass toppers and a set of NRH rolls. Drilling is carried out using a 4m Sulky drill. “The drill was reasonably priced, but it performs well and we have never put a spanner on it,” added Andrew. “It is a simple design and its accuracy is superb. Our land isn’t that stony, ranging from sand to heavy loam, but it is easy to set up for all conditions and the depth control is foolproof – just one big ratchet with nothing fiddly. The power harrow design is effective too and a feature which appealed was the extra rotors over competitor machines of the same width. We see the difference in the level finish it leaves,” he said. Andrew is pictured (left) with sales representative Grant Pyle who looks after the farm’s account.
The depot’s opening was a sociable occasion, providing an opportunity to catch up on news from the industry.

The impressive new Brigg depot features the latest Claas corporate identity. Claas, Marsh and Seward personnel are pictured at the open evening.
Service assured by new dealer depot
A new purpose-built depot at Brigg, North Lincs has been opened by Claas dealer Marsh, part of the manufacturer-owned Eastern Harvesters Group. David Williams attended. Marsh and Seward serve customers in the east of England through a network of seven depots, from Cambridgeshire to North Yorkshire, Seward branches serving the north of the area and Marsh, the area to the south. The exclusive franchises held by the dealer include Claas, Lemken and KRM together with
a small number of specialised equipment brands. The new Brigg depot replaces a previous site in the town, which the dealer had outgrown and which presented access problems for larger machinery. Built on a greenfield site of 1.5 acres the new depot has a foot print of 14,000ft2
with the impressive workshop occupying almost half, and there is also a very extensive parts area with ample room for further expansion. The open evening included a presentation by Claas UK CEO Trevor Tyrrell, and Claas Retail Operations director Richard Vaughan and was attended by more than 500
local farmers and contractors. A comprehensive selection of machinery was on show from the tractor, materials handling and green and golden harvest ranges, many items carrying ‘sold’ labels as they were awaiting delivery to owners immediately after the event. “Customer attendance has been overwhelming and testament to the all year round hard work of the Brigg team,” commented Richard Vaughan. “With such glorious weather we expected a number of customers to be busy with field operations but it would appear everyone has supported the event and joined in the celebrations of the opening of this state-of-the-art facility which sets a new standard in the area and industry and as part of a long term strategic investment plan it puts the business in a strong position for a very long time. “Support from customers also came in the form of some serious enquiries for most products but in particular the now very popular Claas tractors and also machines from the Lemken product line with a number of orders confirmed on the evening.”
u q The new showroom is wellstocked and special offers during the evening tempted many visitors to stock up with service items and accessories, keeping the staff busy. Pictured during a brief quiet moment are (l-r) parts manager for the Brigg depot Phil Dent, being assisted during the evening by parts manager for Ulceby Cross Guy Wiley, and branch parts supervisor Dan Tagg.

Attending the depot opening was farms manager Stuart Meeson, who was with Graham Rowles Nicholson - owner of Limestone Farming Company. The land is at two main locations; Willoughton and Stow, and three Claas Lexion combines are operated including two conventional 750s and a hybrid 770. The two smaller machines harvest crops on the heavy land farm at Stow, including winter wheat, oilseed rape, winter barley and some beans with conventional headers while a draper header is used on one combine for grass seed. “Having two smaller combines gives us the flexibility to continue harvesting the main crops with one machine while the other is harvesting rye grass seed,” explained Stuart. “The farm has quite small fields too, so a bigger machine with a larger header would be less convenient and, when we worked out cost comparisons, it made little difference to operate two medium-sized machines than it would one larger one. We have operated three combines for the past seven years, replacing five of another brand for the three Claas, and our decision has proved successful.” Stuart changed the fleet to Claas when he became manager. “I was very familiar with the brand,” he said, “and knew the machines were reliable and a step ahead of anything else. The back-up from Marsh and Claas is incredible too. During one harvest we measured the average call-out response times and from the telephone call to having a service technician in the field, a distance of approximately 14 miles; we never waited more than 30 minutes.” The lighter land farm at Willoughton has a six-year rotation and cropping also includes vining peas and sugar beet. The larger hybrid 770 operates with a 35ft header. As well as arable cropping, the farm enterprise includes up to 5,000 pigs on a 750-sow unit and 350 suckler cows, for which the barley straw is baled. A new enterprise commencing operation next year is an AD plant, which will be fed partly with pig slurry and also with maize, which is being introduced into the farm’s cropping rotation. Other Claas products operated by the farm include three Claas Arion tractors; a 630, a 640 and a 650, the fleet updated every five years. Stuart is pictured at the event with one of the farms’ three new combines for the coming season.
BASF regional sales manager Adrian Gray was at the open evening, explaining the benefits of his company’s range of rodenticides. “We had a really busy season between October and April, the mild winter allowing rats to breed aggressively,” he said. “Farmers used a large amount of bait but there is less evidence of them around buildings now, although we will almost certainly see large numbers again in the autumn as winter approaches. Neosorex Gold Ratpacks are ideal for placing in areas where consumption is slower as they remain fresh for along time, but loose bait works best where populations are higher as it offers a low-cost and is palatable with rapid results. The assurance scheme has meant most farmers plan ahead and are better prepared for infestations, allowing problems to be detected sooner and dealt with more quickly.” Adrian added, “As a company we are very pleased to be associated with the Marsh & Seward brands which have always aggressively supported our full product ranges from all its locations.”
A demonstration of the Gates hydraulic hose assembly equipment used by Marsh workshop and parts staff attracted considerable interest during the evening. “The Gates system uses all components, including the hose, manufactured by Gates so we can offer our exclusive leak-free guarantee,” explained distributor Kiowa sales engineer Chris Hodgson, who is pictured (right) with sales engineer Stevie Hudson (centre) and Marsh parts manager Phil Dent. “The Gates system is the best on the market by a long way,” said Phil, and an advantage of the company is that it offers regular refresher courses for our staff, keeping them up to date with the latest legislation. When Claas hoses fail, then we will always try to fit a genuine replacement part but for everything else we use Gates assemblies and, as more customers become aware of the free hose assembly service we offer, demand is increasing.”
Attending the event was Mark Worrall from Norman Jackson Farms Ltd, the main base of which is at Appleby. Approximately 3,500ha (1,413 acres) is farmed across 16 locations and cropping includes wheat, oilseed rape, sugar beet, poppies and vining peas. “We deal extensively with Marsh at Brigg,” he explained, “and describe the after-sales department as the ‘fourth emergency service’. The staff are excellent, which is very important to us as we operate a lot of Claas equipment including two Lexion combines on tracks, with another hired in during busy periods. Our machinery is contract-hired and updated every three years. We also run five Arion 650s and one Axion 950 tractor as well as five Scorpion telehandlers, along with an older model. “The addition of the Lemken franchise to the products on offer through Marsh has pleased us, as we have had to buy implements elsewhere, but I can see that we will be purchasing cultivation equipment from the dealer too in future and this will suit us well. Marsh is a really good, efficient and wellorganised outfit and the level of support and interest we receive from Claas at Saxham is great too. It just seems to be the whole Claas ethic about the way it does business which is great.” Pictured (l-r) Marsh general sales manager, Philip Dover; Mark Worrall, workshop foreman Steve Gillett, farm machinery operators Kevin Hill and Michael Ogg, and Dale Griffin, who looks after the farm’s account.

Michelin tyre specialists were advising farmers and contractors on the most suitable tyres for their applications as well as answering technical queries. Tyres on display included the latest YieldBib range designed especially for self-propelled sprayers and spreaders. The new tyres use Ultraflex technology to provide a large increase in load capacity over AgriBib tyres of the same size and fit in to the range between the AgriBib and premium SprayBib tyres which offer even greater capacity, up to 7.75t per tyre, and are designed for the largest self-propelled machines. Pictured with the tyres are (l-r) Michelin agricultural account manager Ian Whitwell, BA Bush tyres representative Rob Hoggarth, Marsh engineer Ivan Green and BA Bush area sales representative Jake Whitwell.
Also delighted with his decision to purchase a Lemken plough was Malcolm Vaughan, farm manager for Sir Richard Sutton Estates Ltd, which is based at Stainton le Vale, near Market Rasen, Lincs. Approximately 3,300ha (8,170 acres) are farmed in one main and several outlying blocks and cropping includes wheat, barley, oilseed rape and beans as well as a small area of sugar beet. “Some of our land is quite tricky to plough as the soil doesn’t slide well along conventional mouldboards,” explained Malcolm, “so we decided to try slatted bodies and they were significantly better. Following the demonstration earlier this year of a large semi-mounted plough, we have ordered a new 8f Lemken Vari-Diamant 11V capable of ploughing on-land or in-furrow and which is due to arrive in July. “We are pleased that Marsh has the Lemken franchise now and believe it will be very successful for the dealer. We have operated Claas combines since the 1990s, before Marsh had the franchise, and get on well with the brand. Now dealing with Marsh and the Brigg depot, we are always very impressed with the after-sales department and, in particular, the service manager, John Gillett whose attitude is that a broken down combine must be returned to work as soon as possible by any means possible. We are always looking at what is out there but remain confident that no other dealer would give us the back-up we receive from the Marsh team. We are considering purchasing a new telehandler this year and will be hiring a Scorpion for the harvest to evaluate it, as that way we can get a true picture of what the machine is like to own, and far closer to reality than if we just borrow one on demonstration for a few days,” he added.

A Lemken Juwel 8 5f reversible plough had been selected by the farm, chosen for its build quality and value and Brian said its performance was proving excellent, with 80 per cent of the land ploughed each year. The farm also operates a Claas Lexion combine, a Scorpion telehandler and a KRM fertiliser spreader, and an Arion tractor used with the plough. “We like dealing with Marsh for the service and its location, and deal mainly with Dale Griffin through the Brigg and Markham Moor depots. Taking on the Lemken franchise is a great move for Marsh and we are already considering the purchase of a power-harrow drill from the dealer.”

Scrape the yard in comfort As the supply of older tractors traditionally used as economicallypriced yard scrapers dwindles, dairy farmers are turning to new tractors to handle this two- or three-times daily task. In the process, they’re discovering the attraction of using a tractor that starts on the button and is quieter, more comfortable and more pleasurable to drive. While the McCormick GM is one good option for dairymen happy with a compact, the company’s distributor AgriArgo had something new at Grassland UK last month for those looking for something more substantial. The McCormick X4.35C is part of a family of small full-size tractors. The 2wd version exhibited is said to have “exceptional” manoeuvrability, enhancing its appeal as a scraper tractor. It is also priced very attractively at £27,688 – or £31,516 for the 4wd version. The model is exceptional in the X4 series for using a 4.4-litre Perkins engine compliant with Tier 3 emissions. The other three C models are among the first tractors from any manufacturer to use a Tier 4 Final engine in this size of tractor with its 2.9-litre Deutz. This means that they are priced in line with similarl modern tractors from other manufacturers. List price of a 76hp X4.40C 2wd is £31,658, or £35,486 with 4wd. Argo Tractors is able to build this tractor thanks to forward buying of the Perkins engine – but only for a relatively limited period. Whichever engine is used, the new X4 series are attractive machines, with a choice of synchro or power shuttle transmissions and various pto options. There is also a new-design Argo Tractors cab that provides plenty of space and headroom but keeps overall height low by locating the air-conditioning filters in the rear pillars – where they’re also easy to access for cleaning. However, if a cab is considered superfluous for a yard-scraping tractor, there’s the open-deck version with ROPS roll bar at a list price of £3,300 less than the cabbed version.
Made for maize New on the British market is the Agrifac Condor ClearancePlus selfpropelled sprayer, designed for taller crops, such as maize. It’s already well-received in markets such as France and Hungary where more tall crops have traditionally been grown. Stepless ground clearance adjustment up to 200cm makes it the only self-propelled sprayer suitable for tall crops such as maize, says Agrifac. The enlarged ground clearance is 70cm and can be adjusted from the cab, resulting in a ground clearance between 130–200cm. The narrow width of the heightadjustable wheel assemblies – 60cm – also makes it ideal for the maize crop.
The Agrifac Condor ClearancePlus has a stepless adjustable track width of 190–225cm or 225–300cm, according to the desired row spacing. Comfort and stability is assured, even at the most narrow track width, thanks to the proven StabiloPlus chassis.

The Challenger demonstration organised by TNS featured the new E-series models and the latest cultivation products.
New tracked model is main attraction at Suffolk demonstration A working demonstration of the latest Challenger tractors by main dealer Thurlow Nunn Standen Ltd generated considerable interest, attracting new and existing customers from throughout East Anglia. David Williams reports. The E-series machines in Challenger's 700 and 800-series were announced in 2014 but deliveries have commenced only recently and the event was the first public demonstration of the larger 800E machines. The most powerful Challenger to date, the 875E, was the star of the show, with its impressive 16-litre V12 Sisu power unit developing up to 640hp. The Challenger range includes the 755E, 765E and 775E, producing up to 438hp, while the 800 models are the 845E, 855E, 865E and 875E. “We are delighted to have the two 875Es at the event,” commented TNS Challenger specialist Dave Lovell. "There is very limited stock of the new models available for delivery to farms this year, and most of our allocation is already spoken for, although we have some of each size remaining. We have had considerable interest as a result of the demonstration from new and existing Challenger customers, so it is worth potential buyers getting in touch as soon as possible to secure a machine.” Also on display was the Challenger RoGator self-propelled sprayer which has proved particularly successful for the dealer, and there are a large number of the machines working in the trading area. TNS has six branches serving Norfolk, Suffolk and Cambridgeshire and represents tractor brands including Challenger, Fendt and Massey Ferguson. Included in the
many quality implement franchises are Sumo, Keeble Bros and HeVa all of which have cultivation equipment ideal for use with the Challengers and some of the latest machines from each brand were in action in the field near Bury St Edmunds, Suffolk, cultivating land ahead of maize for a local AD plant. Farming in the area is varied, but mainly arable, and there is a big demand for precision farming products and services so specialists from the dealer as well as suppliers of Trimble and Topcon equipment were on-hand to deal with enquiries. Dave said the TNS and Challenger staff involved were delighted with the success of the day. ”We had approximately 100 customers visit including operators keen to see the differences between their current machines and the new models. Many visitors had come especially to see a particular piece of equipment working and, as well as the Challengers, this included the Sumo, He-Va and Keeble Brothers cultivation equipment. As a direct result of the event we have three requests for demonstrations of the RoGator sprayer too, so it was a worthwhile day for us. “We are very grateful to the host farmer, Geo Gittus & Sons Ltd and all George’s managers for their help and for allowing us to use this land as the location, situation and conditions were ideal,” he added.
The flagship 875E with a V12 Sisu engine developing up to 640hp was in action working with a brand new He-Va subsoiler.
Pictured with the He-Va 6m trailed subsoiler are TNS demonstrator Dan Plant (left) and He-Va technical support specialist and demonstrator for the east Charlie Thompson. Launched earlier this year, the new subsoiler features hydraulic adjustment of working depth via the packer in conjunction with the depth wheel on the wings. The 6m version has 11 legs but there is the option of a smaller 5m model with 9 legs and all are available with hydraulic auto-reset or shearbolt leg overload protection. Easy-draft low profile legs for minimal ground disturbance are an option for oilseed rape establishment and leg spacing is adjustable. Leg depth adjustment requires the removal and replacement of just two pins. A range of drawbars are available to suit the variety of attachment systems used on modern tractors. Dan Plant commented that the dealer has taken orders for the new cultivators for delivery in time for the autumn cultivations season, including one 5m model equipped with two seed metering units for oilseed rape, an Opico Nitro-Jet liquid fertiliser applicator as well as an Accu Disc seeder for accurate control of seed depth. The price of the 6m version demonstrated is £41,420.

Also at the event were implements from Keeble Brothers including the Crossover disc and tine cultivator designed to work between 4–12in depth and the heavier Progressive subsoiler which will operate down to 20in and is available with 5, 7 or 9 legs. The Crossover working was the 15-tine 4.5m version with two rows of 18 discs, but the range also includes 4.0 5.7 and 6.3m working widths, the biggest having 21 tines. “We are experiencing high demand for the cultivation equipment as customers appreciate the excellent build quality and rugged construction,” explained director Peter Keeble. “The Progressive was built for heavy Essex clay but we are seeing demand from vegetable growers all over the country, as they can cultivate down to 18in and it allows them to do the work of a subsoiler, plough and discs in one-pass, saving time and fuel. It moves a huge amount of soil and they love it, as it has proved so effective at creating ideal conditions for root crops and vegetables to thrive. It is versatile too, in that with its hydraulic adjustment of the individual working sections the user can select only the elements needed.” Pictured with the 3.8m Keeble Progressive at the event are (l-r) Paul Keeble, TNS sales specialist for Fendt and Challenger Steve Plumb and Peter Keeble.
Anyone with a question regarding precision farming products and services would have been hard-pressed to find a more knowledgeable team on the day than was present at the TNS demonstration. Pictured are (l-r) LH Agro Topcon precision agriculture equipment distributor area sales representative Rob Thurkettle, RTK Farming sales and support specialist PJ Walker, TNS technology services and sprayer specialist Jamie Thompson and Trimble distributor sales director Lee Clarke. ‘PJ’ commented that Challenger users invest in precision farming products to optimise efficiency of their farm operations. “They are keen to get what they can out of their machinery and our RTK network systems help them achieve that,” he said. Lee said autosteer system enquiries are increasing, with customers of TNS operating Challenger and Fendt tractors accounting for many of these. “Modern systems are generating a lot more useful data regarding farm operations, and we are receiving enquiries as to how to handle this efficiently too,” he said. “Trimble’s Connected Farm is ideal for this task and, while some of the uses such as creating drilling rate maps are still in their infancy we expect their use to increase rapidly.” Jamie Thompson said TNS is investing heavily in back-up to help users get the most from their equipment. “We are building up a team of three workshop specialists, backed up by AS Communications due to the increased demand for the service. We sold 75 Trimble systems last year, mainly to fit to machines supplied by us, but also for other brands too, and as well as Trimble equipment, we are always busy with Agco and Topcon products.”
BBC Radio Suffolk Breakfast Show presenter Etholle George often includes features on farming events on her show. She is pictured following a test-drive of the Challenger 875E under instruction from Dave Lovell, highlights of which were broadcast the following day on her show. “We are broadcasting to an audience in a very agricultural county, and it is important to keep the public informed regarding agriculture and issues affecting the countryside. I have very much enjoyed my test-drive with Dave, who was an excellent instructor and I am tempted to advertise my services as a contractor during the afternoons when I tend to be free,” she joked.
Frederick Hiam Farms managers Will Brice (left) and Andrew Wilson were at the event, having first started using Challengers earlier this year. The farm business operates from eight main locations in the UK, most of which are throughout East Anglia and it also has a site in Wales. Two Challengers were supplied on hire from TNS including a 775 and an 855, the smaller model used for cultivations ahead of sugar beet and the other for ridging up approximately 565ha (1,400) acres for parsnips and potatoes. A new-model 875E has also been in use working with a Keeble Progressive subsoiler and it completed more than 1,000ha (2,500 acres) ahead of onions, potatoes, parsnips and maize, successfully achieving one-pass establishment in most situations. “We still plough ahead of sugar beet and second wheats, as well as when the conditions demand it,” explained Will, who has particular responsibility for potatoes, but the 875E with the Progressive was excellent and really got across the land. It was very economical too, and comfortably worked all day on a full tank of fuel. It is a big bit of kit and needs escorting on the road, and it wasn’t as smooth during transport as a wheeled tractor, but one has to remember what it is and what it can achieve in the field.” Andrew, who is the vegetables manager said the farm has used only wheeled tractors previously, but that the implements in use this season couldn’t have been handled by a wheeled machine. “We dealt with Dave Lovell and were well looked after and he had the experience to give us the information we needed to make decisions, and we dealt with Nick in the service department at Hinderclay for back-up. The whole experience was faultless,” he added. The farming business has dealt with TNS for many years; its main fleet of tractors including a number of Massey Fergusons and Andrew said that an attraction of the dealer was the flexibility it offers for servicing, including carrying out tractor maintenance during weekends. All Frederick Hiam’s East Anglian farms use RTK for some field operations, the Trimble equipment supplied and installed through TNS and the network provided by AS Communications. “It is the first year we have had RTK fully available,” explained Andrew, “and we find the back-up from AS Communications really good. It is the first experience we have had of telematics too, and see this as an area More over page... for further development in the future.”

Alastair Sharp trades as John Sharp & Son Ltd and is based at Redgrave, near Diss, Norfolk. He farms approximately 1,200ha (3,000 acres) of tenanted and contractfarmed land and cropping includes winter wheat, winter barley, winter beans, winter oilseed rape, spring barley and sugar beet. The land includes a mix of soil types including some challenging heavy land and rubber-tracked crawlers were a feature of the farm soon after they first became available in the UK, the first being a green Claas machine followed by a Challenger 765A and then, as the farm size increased, two 765Bs were bought as a pair. “At that time the Challengers were way ahead of anything else on the market, with more power and a better ride through the track suspension,” he said. “We do a reasonable amount of road work too, and the suspension made a huge difference. The area farmed reduced slightly and we decided we could manage with a single machines, so when the 765Bs were traded in we bought a single 765C, then a 765D and we currently have a 775E on order which will give us slightly more power and provide greater output allowing us to increase work rates. The bigger fuel tank is one of the main improvements we are looking forward to as it will allow us longer working days.” Regarding the service received from TNS, Alastair said he couldn’t fault it at all. “We farm around the TNS Hinderclay depot, so it is very convenient for us and we find the dealer excellent on all fronts. Dave Lovell is very knowledgeable and all the fitters are very obliging and will fit service work in around our work schedule; for example attending early in the morning or late afternoon for routine servicing.” Alastair is pictured (centre) at the event with a new 775E, similar to the one he has on order, with Fred Barker (left) of FW Barker Farms Ltd, for who he has contract-farmed land since 2002, and Dave Lovell.

Expanding supply business celebrates move to larger premises A new depot has been opened in Framlingham, Suffolk, by agricultural parts and sundry specialist, MDT. David Williams attended the celebrations. Since the company was started by managing director Mark Donsworth, almost 30 years ago, MDT has become firmly established as a major supplier of pattern and genuine wearing parts for cultivation machinery and drills, but in more recent years it has added many more products to its range, from tools to sprayer nozzles, lubricants and farm sundries. The company’s previous site, which it moved into in 2001, had become inadequate for the growing business, which required extra space for storage and display as well as to accommodate more staff needed to keep pace with the increasing number of orders. The new building, on the outskirts of Framlingham, has two storeys including a purpose-designed office and warehousing for racked parts, as well as a dedicated showroom and display area with a large parts counter. The opening, on 17th April, was well attended by friends and customers, many of who had been dealing with the company for many years. Former agriculture and food minister Sir Jim Paice, cut the ribbon to mark the official opening in front of an enthusiastic crowd, using a large pair of bolt croppers borrowed from the large selection of Sealey
tools displayed. “I have known Mark for 30 years or more and have seen his business grow, so I am delighted to open these new premises,” said Sir Jim. “The farming community is all about local businesses and wherever you go, its people are part of the same community, but want to trade locally if they can. I have been lucky, during my time as an MP, to do a job in politics which I most wanted to, as Minister for Agriculture. Farming is an industry the country can’t do without and food supply is a critical part of the UK’s economy. I want to congratulate Mark and the whole team on their success.” “I am delighted with the success of the business and to have been able to invest in the new premises,” commented Mark. “I am very lucky to be able to earn my living dealing with people I class as friends as well as customers and I want to express my sincere thanks to all those who support me so well. My staff are fantastic and I am lucky to have such a great team, and I want to acknowledge my family too; my wife Caroline, and children George and William, and thank them for putting up with me always making deliveries whenever we are travelling anywhere.”
The well-stocked showroom includes a wide range of sundries and workshop supplies.
Some of the wide selection of Sealey tools stocked, while all other tools in the range are available next-day.

Andrew and Cheryl Read of MF Read & Sons, Depden, Suffolk are pictured at the event. “We purchase wearing parts for our Simba Solo, Horsch drill, Sumo Trio and Simba Cultipress from MDT,” explained Andrew. “The product knowledge of the staff makes dealing with the company easy and we receive very good service for the price charged. We don’t want to have to fill our stores with spare parts so we rely on companies like MDT to do the stocking for us and Mark does it well. The service is most important to us, being able to get hold of the correct part when required, but the cost is important too and the company’s prices are competitive. If ever we receive an incorrect part, which rarely happens, the issue is resolved quickly. We enjoy dealing with MDT and are here tonight to congratulate Mark on what he has achieved.”
Pictured with Mark is Malcolm Easey of MJ & JA Easey based at Hoxne, Suffolk. Mark explained that Malcolm was his very first customer for wearing parts when the business started 30 years ago, and that he remembers very well that Malcolm was keen to see his business succeed paying up front for the parts to assist the new company’s cash-flow. “Mark supplies parts which are realistically priced and he cares about his customers and clearly loves his work,” said Malcolm. “We are always greeted by a smiley face and are proud to know him, and his success shows that his technique is an effective way to build a successful business. “We are on some tough soils, farming a few thousand arable acres as well as pigs, and we purchase ground wearing parts from MDT. It’s the personal touch we like and it is nice to see local people doing a grand job so we are pleased to be here this evening to join Mark’s celebrations,” he added.

Popular open days extend to cover UK The annual open days organised by Claydon Yieldometer allow existing users of its direct drills to get together and compare techniques, as well as those thinking about moving to the system to seek opinions of existing users. The event took place in early May. David Williams attended. The annual open days are as much of a social occasion as they are educational, many long-standing users looking forward to the annual get together of the ‘Claydon Club’ as it has become affectionately known within the industry. Traditionally, the days have included a morning session, at which specialist speakers on various relevant topics talk about the latest innovations and research regarding crops, fertilisers, pests and diseases, followed by an afternoon out on Jeff Claydon’s

heavy land farm near Newmarket, Suffolk, inspecting his crop establishment techniques and trials, and culminating in a tour of the production facility and a preview of the latest models. Until recently the Claydon team provided sales and service across the UK but, as the business grew and more machines were working, a network of dealers has been appointed to ensure efficient backup is available however far the user is from Claydon’s base. This year the open day format was changed, to include seven extra events around the UK, starting in Dorset and finishing in Aberdeenshire. Sales manager Charles Eaton started the presentation explaining that Claydon has supplied drills to 26 countries, many as a result of its first attendance at the German Agritechnica show in 2011. In the UK there are approximately 450 Claydon direct drills operating as well as 250 stubble harrows. Jeff Claydon opened his presentation talking about current cereal prices and the impact this has had on margins, and stressed that with lower gross margins available, minimising costs and maximising time savings during establishment is critical. He compared plough-
based, min-till and direct-drill establishment regimes, quoting figures for time taken to drill the crop and costs for the operation.
pClaydon open days are held at Jeff Claydon’s farm in Suffolk. Potential and existing users are pictured inspecting a field of Santiago which had been drilled at 130kg/ha, the rate encouraging an open canopy allowing light to get well into the crop and encouraging strong tillering, explained Jeff. The field had oilseed rape last year which yielded 4t/ha and he commented that prior to drilling on 30th September, it was harrowed three times and the emerging weeds were sprayed off each time, then it was pre-baited with slug pellets and has had 180kg N/ha applied to date.

Having used the Claydon system on his own farm for 13 years, he said proven benefits included higher yields, improved margins, reduced weed populations, improved soil fertility and structure, reduced environmental pollution and reduced risk. A problem weed affecting Jeff’s land, in common with almost every other farm in the area, is black-grass and extensive trials are carried out each year to identify the most successful methods of control. The Claydon straw-rake which is designed to create ideal chitting conditions for weed seeds, such as black-grass, directly after harvest and before drilling, is proving effective, and Jeff said the results when compared with a heavy cultivator followed by a set of rolls were almost identical, but at far less cost and higher work rates.
Jeff Claydon is pictured at the open day.
Getting the best from the strawrake requires a stubble length of approximately 6in, he explained, 70– 80 per cent of which is flattened by the rake. The effectiveness is greatly improved if some straw remains in the rake during work, producing an action like that of a scrubbing brush. He said it is important to maintain the rake in working position during headland turns to avoid large clumps of straw being dumped if the rake is lifted.

New developments displayed at the event included an improved fertiliser placement tine, which allows fertiliser to be applied either directly behind the seeding tine between two rows of seed or, with a spreader plate fitted, to be distributed to the sides, closer to the seed. “We are seeing increased use of fertiliser placement, particularly in the northern areas,” explained research and development manager Matt Bowe, who is pictured with the new tine. “This tine was designed by us to give the flexibility to apply fertiliser precisely where needed in relation to the seed, and will meet the requirements of farmers wanting to vary the placement to suit different crops and conditions.”
The Claydon leading tine has been a feature of the Claydon drill design from the start, but a new option is a disc ahead of the coulter for use in very thick cover crops. “We have always avoided using discs,” explained Matt, “as the leading tine creates a slot and provides effective drainage, but for use in cover crops the disc can be an advantage.”
Farming a range of soil types from very light sand to heavy Beccles series clay at three sites in Norfolk, Ed Gladden who, with his father, trades as R&M Maynard based at Attleborough operates a 3m Hybrid drill equipped with StonePro auto reset tines. Purchased in time for autumn drilling in 2013, the drill is fitted with a separate hopper for fertiliser application as well as a microfert unit and a KRM seeder, used for Avadex and cover crop seeding, and a slug pellet applicator is also mounted on the unit. Cropping includes
winter wheat, oilseed rape, winter barley and sugar beet and Ed explained that the drill was purchased to save time, reduce fuel costs and because of growing concern that the soil had become increasingly abused during the past 15–20 years. “We had been using non-inversion tillage since 2005 and I could see we needed to do something to help our soils recover and to reduce the amount of diesel we consumed. We were using a very effective min-till subsoiler which left the land level, but it did need lots of power and fuel, but when we moved to the Claydon drill that first autumn, the subsoiler gave us a good head start as it is important to have the land as level as possible.” Ed explained that the business is two family farms run as one unit and moving to the Claydon meant his father, David Gladden, could reduce the amount of time he had to spend working on the farm, although was still able to help with operations during busy periods. “The first season we used the Claydon, my father was very concerned about what we were doing, but now we have had one
A new twin press wheel design was shown, replacing the previous solid 6in-wide single wheel. “The single wheel can create a cap if the soil dries quickly or becomes wet soon after drilling, in certain soil types,” explained Matt. “These new twin press wheels are effective in almost all conditions but especially in very light soils where they provide instant seed-to-soil contact and preservation of moisture. They pass precisely where needed over the two bands of seed, consolidating the area around the seed, but the pressed strips on the surface collapse quickly after drilling leaving perfect conditions for emergence and allowing moisture to penetrate. Following harrows can be fitted behind the press wheels if needed, and we would always recommend the use of Cambridge rolls as these will reduce slug pressure, conserve moisture and provide good conditions for pre-emergents to work effectively.”
A selection of used machines was in stock, and on display with them was the very first Claydon drill made by Jeff, 13 years ago.
complete year and have drilled our second lot of crops, he is enthusiastic about the drill when talking with other local farmers,” said Ed. “Most people enjoyed a good harvest last year, so we can’t say the excellent yields we had were entirely due to the new drill, but we achieved a good 4.5t per acre, even with our second wheats and the cropped land did look exceptionally good right from the start. We have taken Jeff Claydon’s advice regarding rolling thoroughly and my father rolls the land twice with a decent set of rolls after drilling and we use a Claydon stubble rake and roll after that, to achieve good weed seed germination for a clean seedbed. “On some of our stronger land we can already see a difference in the soil structure, particularly on the headlands which are abused far less now. Our fuel use has dropped dramatically and our 200hp tractor on the 3m drill uses approximately 11 litres of diesel per hectare drilled. We still use the heavy cultivator ahead of sugar beet, and after for levelling the ground and pulling out compaction from the trailers,
but I have tried strip-tilling and drilling some sugar beet this season and it is looking so good; I wish I had put in a larger area like that. We are trying hard to reduce the number of passes,” he added. “The Claydon drill has given us far more free time to consider what we are doing and whether it is the best way to do it and we have also started using cover crops to provide extra organic matter, such as oil radish ahead of sugar beet to help tackle the beet cyst nematode problem. We might drop winter barley from the rotation in future years as I am confident that we can achieve just as good results from spring barley following a ryegrass-vetch cover crop, and that would give us added opportunity to tackle the black-grass to prevent it becoming a serious problem. “Our crops are looking good this year again, but could do with more rain at present, and although we do a small amount of contracting already, I am keen to take on more work when I am fully confident of my technique with the Claydon drill,” he More over page... said.

...More on previous page Richard and Hugh Edgeley near Sudbury, Suffolk farm soils ranging from hanslope to sandy clay loam. A Claydon drill was purchased in 2014 following a demonstration earlier that year. Cropping includes winter wheat, spring barley, spring wheat, peas and beans as well as oilseed rape. Richard said the decision was made to move away from the previous plough and min-till regime to the direct-drilling system, partly because his soil took so much working down to produce a seedbed, especially in a dry year. “As well as the time and fuel savings, the other issue we faced was increasing black-grass,” he explained. “Our combined subsoiler-cultivator did the job of a ‘dirty plough’, and it pulled up a lot of weed seeds each time it was used. We don’t have a particular black-grass problem, and we don’t want one, so we were keen to keep on top of any we had. We still have the plough and we haven’t ruled out using it if, at any time, we have a particular problem field.” Richard said he expects to learn from experience the best techniques for using the Claydon on his land, but he has taken advice from Jeff, and is pleased with the results so far. The standard 7in A-hoes are used most of the time, but he also purchased a wet weather spring-tine kit which was used on some land this winter with great results, and he felt his decision to invest in the spoon coulters for bean establishment had been a good one as the beans have established well. “We have found the Claydon drill well-designed and versatile with tines which are easily interchanged between seed types to suit the conditions,” he said. “We have also noticed that as they wear they actually work better, becoming thinner but retaining their working depth and this means we will get plenty of life out of the wearing metal.”
The lower-disturbance twin-tine kit is another new development. With boron steel points, these are claimed to be better suited to working in wet conditions than the standard 35mm wide point, which was introduced in 2012. “These minimise the amount of soil moved by the tines which improves operation in very challenging conditions. The twin tines are compatible with the standard leading tine or new single or twin front discs. “We have found that a single front disc running between the two tines is generally adequate as trash flows around the offset coulter tines without hair pinning,” said Matt Bowe. “Twin discs are available as an option though.” He said the twin-tine kit allows the crop to be drilled at 150mm/6-inch coulter spacings, similar to that used by conventional drills, with either 13mm low-disturbance or 40mm tine shares. This is in contrast to the standard Claydon 300mm/12-inch single tine spacing with a choice of 180mm/7-inch, 130mm/5-inch or 75mm/3-inch shares, or a 25mm/1-inch deep slitter for deep sowing of winter beans. “The twin-tine kit has been used successfully for a few seasons having been developed initially to reduce soil disturbance as part of the fight against black-grass. We saw no yield penalty with the system, in trials with Agrovista, and some customers have already used tthis format and reported good results. It is all about working with customers to make sure they can get what they want and need for their situation, and the twin-tine kit is easily fitted in place of the standard single coulter. For customers who need an alternative to the standard single tine due to weather or operating conditions during the season, the two available options are much cheaper than buying two separate drills,” he added.
Claydon engineers in the main machinery assembly building were busy preparing drills for delivery in time for the coming season.
Rob Holmes, from near Ashbourne, Derbyshire has been using Claydon drills for five years, starting with the SR version and currently operates a Hybrid combined seed and fertiliser drill. Trading as M Holmes & Sons, the family farm is run by Rob with his father and brother and incorporates owned and contractfarmed land, totaling approximately 242–260ha (600–650 acres). Cropping includes oilseed rape, wheat and spring beans, all of which are drilled with the Claydon. The Hybrid combined seed and fertiliser drill was bought in 2013 and has worked two seasons, fertiliser applied with the oilseed rape. “My father and I were walking across one of our fields, looking at the tilth, and it occurred to us that with our plough-based system we were simply going to bury it and then work hard to create similar conditions again,” said Rob. “Some of our soil is heavy red clay which took a lot of breaking down and it seemed to make more sense to re-use that soil structure and save the time, fuel and wear and tear on machinery. We looked at, and purchased, a Claydon drill and everything went well from the start. We saw no yield penalty although we did make a few mistakes such as missing opportunities to drill early in the first few years and our yields have remained average compared with our previous intensive cultivations system while we have made huge savings in fuel and machinery costs as well as time.” The drill is furnished with standard 7in A-share coulters for oilseed rape and wheat and a 3in spoon coulter for the beans. Rob commented that the soil structure was noticeably better at the end of the first year, the drill being much easier to pull through, and spraying and fertiliser application operations could be carried out several days earlier than previously, after rain, through the improved drainage and weight-bearing capacity. “These earlier days are critical as they extend the weather windows available to us for timely applications,” said Rob. “This makes it easier to look after the crops. The time and labour savings are a real benefit too, and an example is when we are harvesting but need to get the oilseed rape drilled. In the past we had to take people from the harvest operation and corn carting to prepare land for drilling, but now that getting the crop in the ground is a one-man operation, harvesting is unaffected, We can clear a crop of wheat, bale and drill it with oilseed rape in just 48 hours and this makes life so much easier.”

Technology wins over tradition Tractor drivers familiar with levers for shifting gear and operating hydraulic spool valves don’t always appreciate it when manufacturers add high-tech controls to their new models. But the dairy team on one east Devon farm has come to enjoy the benefits that modern electronics can deliver. Dave Lawrance of Knightstone Farm, Ottery St Mary says: “Our old Landini Landpower 135 is very much a mechanical tractor, with gear levers, lever-operated hydraulics and mechanical fuel injection. “So, when we bought a Landini 6-160 last August with lots of modern features on it, everything was new and different.” Having expanded the pedigree Holstein dairy herd to 250 milkers and 180 followers, and taken on another member of staff, David, who farms with his wife Vicki and parents, needed a third tractor. He says: “We needed one with a bit more weight and better traction on the banky ground to handle a larger slurry tanker. But we didn’t want anything too big in case it has to take its turn on the diet feeder.” Landini tractors have been used on the farm over the past 20 years, but the selection process was extended to other familiar makes. But the Landini 6-160, supplied by CJ Keitch Engineering of Dunkeswell proved not only very well-equipped but also best value. The 160hp machine is one of several ‘new generation’ Landini models produced by Italian manufacturer Argo Tractors with new-design cabs, controls, hydraulics, transmissions and engines. Equipment levels are in stark contrast to the Landpower 135, which has been a remarkably reliable workhorse. Dave says: “It’s done 9,500 hours
and, apart from routine servicing, it’s only had the brakes renewed and some attention to the gearbox to replace a rollpin.” In place of its lever-operated transmission and hydraulics, the new Landini 6-160 has electronicallyoperated systems controlled using buttons and switches set into a console mounted on the driver’s airsuspension seat. With their right hand resting on the fixed joystick, the driver can easily shift up and down the four gears in each range using just their thumb, and make range changes by pressing a second button at the same time. Another two buttons operate one of the electric hydraulic valves, and others are operated using toggle switches that have a proportional action, so the operator can feather them just like levers. A roller switch provides quick lift-lower operation of the rear hitch, with adjustments using dials on the console. Dave says: “It’s really handy being able to fine-tune hydraulic spool valve flow from the seat – to regulate the lift speed of the rotor door on our muck spreader for example, or to make sure the tailgate lifts out of the way on the silage trailer as it tips. “I also like being able to lock the valves individually to prevent them being used accidentally. Grab the wrong lever on the old tractor and you could open the muck spreader stone trap instead of lifting the door.” It took little time to get to grips with the unfamiliar transmission controls. “It’s better to have an electronic system to handle shifts when the transmission’s ready than have someone forcing gears in and wearing out the synchromesh”, he says.
The new Landini 6-160 at Knightstone Farm is one of a new generation of more sophisticated tractors with high tech but practical controls that bring real benefits, says Dave Lawrance.

A 2,500 gallon slurry tanker is one of the more demanding pieces of equipment it handles, because of its weight and the movement of slurry inside.

Rural Advice
Grain storage – is it worth it? Whether in any one year the ability to store grain wins or loses you money is probably in the lap of the gods. Carter Jonas rural partner Mark Russell explains.
I have looked at the performance of storage over 3-, 5- and 10year periods comparing price improvements achieved between selling spot in July and the same crop selling spot again in May the next year. The results are: 3-year average -9 per cent (2011–2014); 5-year average -1 per cent (2009– 2014); 10-year average +2.46 per cent (2004–2014). But not many people put the crop in the barn for 10 months and I would hope your marketing is a bit more sophisticated. In fact it is all about control, because in each of those periods if you had played the market and hit the best price your 3-year average annual price change would have been up 4.3 per cent, your 5-year average up 14.2 per cent and your 10-year average up 23 per cent. So the upside is not being able to
store for a long period, but rather to control availability afforded by the store in order to play the market. So do those returns warrant the facility costs? Our friendly ABC costings book tells us that as of November 2014, the cost of putting up a grain store is up to £270/t. If we amortise that over 30 years it equates to £9/t per year and, if you did that 100 per cent build on an AMC mortgage over the same period, it would cost about £15/t per annum. The 10-year average improvement suggests an increase in value of between £3–£4/t, but on the managed basis the 5-year average improvement would be substantially more, say around £20/t (using £160/t as an average price) and down to say £15/t if your average view is a bit less rosy. On top of the capital costs are the running costs, but it
may be possible to offset these by adding solar PV panels to the roof to generate income and reduce energy costs. Also there are the additional benefits: • Alternative income from PV • Potential for residential conversion • Alternative income from future commercial lets • Added capital value to the whole holding • Getting chemical storage and wash areas organised at the same time • Adding more facilities (biomass) • Adding value to contract arrangements by storing others’ grain
A farmer’s view Having decided to discuss this subject I canvased a couple of opinions. The view I got back was that crop storage on farm is definitely an investment to make due to having more control, backing your ability to win a premium and because central storage can be
expensive and potentially its capital value does not perform as well as investing at home. In all the cases where I spoke to farmers about this, one key added value was the ability to store other farmers’ grain as and when required. That makes these farmers more attractive as contractors which is how they see their business growing going forward. It seems to me that investing in crop storage is sensible as it allows you more flexibility within your farming system and more control. The alternative uses give you more opportunities with evidence from the 3-, 5- and 10-year managed sales uplifts being supportive. What I would add is that waiting for commodity prices to hit a high is the wrong way to plan this investment. Looking at the costs of investment now at arguably a low point in cereal prices, but also where finance is at a relatively low cost, appears a more sensible option. If it works now, it will work even better when the going is good. ■

Injection of investment for machinery company After 23 years as head of Sumo UK, Shaun Wealleans is being joined by two local businessmen on the board of directors. Simon Herring and James Sweeting, co-founders of Lincolnshire-based businesses Pipers Crisps and Lincoln & York, have made a majority investment in Sumo UK and will be working with Shaun to strengthen and grow the company. Shaun will continue to be very involved, becoming technical director leading the design team. He says: “We’re 100 per cent committed to upholding the reputation that we’ve gained for our machines and service back-up. “We can assure both current and potential customers that this will only be strengthened by the new partnership.” Simon, a farmer’s son from Walesby in Lincolnshire, will become the new managing director. He is co-founder and director of Lincoln & York coffee company and Pipers Crisps gourmet potato crisp brand. He has spent the past 10 years managing the day-to-day running of Pipers.

How does your grass grow? Barenbrug, one of the largest grass seed producers in the UK, is launching the Good Grass Guide – a handy, pocket-sized booklet designed to help livestock farmers across the country improve the quality of their pasture and grass swards in order to boost milk and meat yields. The guide includes a field indexing system against which farmers can benchmark the quality of their grass swards, fields and pastureland. Available in print and online, the guide centres on a sliding scale for assessing grass quality on a one to five rating. Livestock farmers are used to monitoring the condition of their herd, with many using the one to five index to gauge the health of their animals, the company says. By taking a similar approach
with its field-indexing system, Barenbrug hopes to make it easier for farmers to monitor grass sward quality, identify problems and act swiftly to take remedial action. Head of agriculture James Ingles says: “High yields depend on good grassland management to keep swards in peak condition. “The cost of producing a good crop of silage is £30 per tonne, hay is £75 per tonne. “If sward quality is low, crop yields will be reduced, pushing up the unit cost per tonne. “To keep grass cultivation costs sharp and competitive, farmers need to maximise the productivity of their land. Our Good Grass Guide is designed to help them. It’s packed with invaluable guidance, practical advice and useful information.”

u The Park Land bale accumulator.
A Suffolk contracting business that uses Park Land bale accumulators is now being appointed as importer for the Danish brand. PJ Reed of Grove Farm, Barrow near Bury St Edmunds has extensive experience of using the bale accumulators over the past two seasons, baling up to 8,000t of wheat, barley, oat and rape straw across 14 farms. Its two New Holland 1290 balers and a Massey Ferguson 2170 all produce 120x90cm bales and run with the three Park Land five-bale accumulators which accumulate up to five bales and automatically drop them on the field. The machines have meant Paddy Reed has changed the way he is able to run his business, thanks to cost and time reduction when collecting straw, as well as control traffic system. He says the accumulators offer the most modern technology coupled with a proven track record of being the most efficient resource for big bale-handling operations.
Figures have shown that the use of a single 455 accumulator can help reduce labour cost by up to 20 per cent, he adds. The real cost saving comes into play when the machine is operated manually to drop its accumulation of bales on the headland, making the picking up and carting operation far faster and reducing traffic and compaction as the tractor and trailer can run in the headland tramlines. The Park Land accumulators come in a range of sizes to suit all businesses and farming needs, from the three or five mini bale to three or five big bale sizes. While they aren’t new to the market, they are not used as widely in the UK as they are in countries such as Germany and Denmark. Paddy’s son William and daughter Lucinda will be taking on the importing aspect of the business, and are now actively looking to set up a dealer network to distribute and service the machines. ■

Workload compacted At last month’s Grassland UK event, Hi-Spec Engineering launched a new addition to its range – the Kompactor dual-purchase push-off and compacting trailer. Initially it will be available in four sizes – 18ft, 20ft, 22ft and 24ft. A demount version is also available which will increase value and versatility by being able to swap the trailer body with a Hi-Spec vacuum tanker body. Central to the Kompactor is the hydraulically-operated headboard which is powered by a 3-stage hydraulic ram. For compacting, with the heavyduty tailgate shut, the headboard can be used to compact material
such as grass or maize silage, thereby increasing the load carried by up to 80 per cent compared to a conventional trailer. But, due to its size, the Kompactor trailer is also ideally suited for use as a conventional trailer for transporting bulky materials such as woodchip or grain. To empty the Kompactor, having raised the tailgate, the headboard is then fully extended and, depending on the load, has the capacity to completely empty the trailer in as little as 30 seconds. Because the load is pushed off, avoiding the need to tip the trailer body, the Kompactor is ideal for use in areas where conventional tipping
Riding in memory of a close friend The fundraising group makes it to John O’Groats.
Motivated by the loss of one of their closest friends, five former Harper Adams University friends have completed a Land’s End to John O’Groats cycle ride. Henry Barnes, Will Mottram, Charlie Paton, John Sheppard and Ollie Speck met at the college in 2003. Last year another one of their group, Robert Chapman, committed suicide after suffering from depression more than anyone
had realised. The group completed the ‘Ride for Rob’ over nine days in April, raising more than £15,000 for Papyrus, a charity that aims to give hope to those suffering from depression and avoid young suicide. With Henry as one of its farmer members, grain co-operative Openfield is one of several businesses supporting the group, paying for its cycling kit. ■

trailers can’t access. Also, by using the push-off mechanism, the trailer reduces or avoids the inherent risks of a tipping trailer, such as striking overhead power lines or being unstable on soft or unstable ground. Because lifting rams and the associated bracing isn’t required, the Kompactor is lighter in weight than a conventional trailer. The chassis incorporates a
dampened drawbar, through which all the hydraulic and electric lines are routed. Air brakes are fitted as standard. Options include a rear steering axle. Prices start at £36,500.
Top dealer’s call for apprentices Ernest Doe & Sons is looking for 17 apprentices in agricultural, construction and ground-care machinery for the 2105 season in both its service and parts departments. The company already has 30 apprentices in its programme, spread among its 19 branches in East Anglia and south-east England. The apprenticeship scheme at Ernest Doe combines four years onthe-job training with a 4-week block release course at college in each of the years. Fittingly, the company’s founder, Ernest Doe, began the business in 1898 when he bought out a blacksmith’s shop having completed his own apprenticeship. Service director Angus Doe (right) says: “As a company we like to ‘grow our own’ employees where we can. “The majority of apprentices we take on become highly-skilled
and professional service technicians operating from a fully-equipped service van that the company provides. “They are a vital part of the relationship we have with our customers, who will often repeat-buy from us because of their confidence in our ability to react promptly and keep their equipment performing in the way it was designed to work. “We offer a wide range of career progression opportunities throughout the company. Service technicians can move on to service management jobs, sales positions and department and branch management roles. “In fact, five out of the company’s 7-strong senior management team started as apprentices with the company. “We continue to invest, not just in people, but also in the latest tools and equipment for our workshops. It’s an investment that benefits our customers, the industry, our employees and the company.”

Award winning pig producer and owner of Spring Farm systems Ltd, Tom Wright, explains the importance of ventilation temperature control in pig sheds, especially here in the UK. Temperatures can vary considerably in the UK, particularly so in winter where big changes can happen in a matter of days. To average out the highs and lows you need to control the environment. Keeping pigs from their lower critical temperature (pigs will need to consume more food to keep warm) and upper critical temperature (pigs will decrease their feed consumption) is an issue for producers. Dust is a given in any building but if you can see the dust then you have a lack of airflow. Respiratory problems can haunt a producer throughout a batch if ventilation is inadequate. Efforts should be taken to create a warm environment for piglets with fresh air being introduced to the building at eaves height even in the coldest months. Yorkshire boarding has been used on pig buildings for decades but its effectiveness has been minimal. In winter it provides nowhere near enough protection and in summer it reduces the cool summer breeze that is needed in the shed. Curtain ventilation systems enable you to have the desired environment throughout the year. Being able to raise or lower the sides with ease means that control over airflow and temperature is at the producer’s fingertips. Automatic systems operate to a set temperature with the control box taking readings from the temperature sensors every few minutes and adjusting the curtains accordingly. Manual systems still offer the
producer total control but rely on judgement and operation of the hand winch. Typically automated curtains will move down in the morning and up in the evening, but when there is temperature fluctuation throughout the day, the manual curtains will not be moved unless someone is nearby. Being able to keep consistent temperature reduces stress levels in the pigs, consequently increasing health and growth rates. Straw-based systems experience cleaner pigs when the temperature is correct and airflow is adequate. Pigs immensely dislike draughts; therefore top opening curtains allow fresh air to enter the building without creating too much air movement at lower levels. In the summertime, when producers are faced with warm and humid conditions, a fully open curtain will allow large amounts of cooler air into the building – creating a cool breeze able to flow through the shed, cooling the pigs and removing dust and hot air. ■

Slick silage system Users of the Harvest Tec Moisture Monitoring and Automatic and Manual Additive Applicator system will now be able to use their applicator systems to accurately apply acidderived silage additive to round and large square-baled silage. Until now, the Harvest Tec system, marketed in the UK by PFC – the Profitable Farming Company – has only been approved for use with Baler’s Choice buffered proprionic acid for use on hay and straw. However, approval has now been extended to the use of Harvest Tec System Applicators for the application of the new ProMyr Silage Plus, which has recently been introduced to the UK by the Swedish-based manufacturer, Perstorp. ProMyr Silage Plus is the first in a new generation of acid-derived silage additives to be launched in the UK by Perstrop and, as part of the approval, will be available through PFC and its distributors. Being gas-forming, it’s ideally suited for use with baled silage, as
Perstrop has a new silage additive.
the gas permeates through the bale, effectively killing bacteria and preventing the formation of mycotoxins and any other unwanted fermentation products. Because it includes sodium proprionate, it also remains stable once the bale is opened. ProMyr Silage Plus can be used across a wide range of conditions, which avoids many of the problems that can be associated with inoculants. The Harvest Tec Automatic Additive system is the most advanced baler additive applicator system on the market. Unlike other systems, it has the ability to accurately monitor both the throughput and the moisture content of the bale up to 72 per cent, to an accuracy of one per cent. ■
Robust and reliable mower Teagle Machinery is launching a new mower. The Handy InterRow Mower is aimed primarily at grassland, vineyards and orchards, underlining the company’s understanding of specialist applications in its home market. Its robust construction ensures a clean cutting performance with longevity and reliability, says Teagle. Available in five cutting widths from 2.0–3.6m, the mower comprises a deck featuring three cutting heads, each with two heavy-duty flails. It comes with an integral, fourth, articulated inter-row cutting head, also with two heavyduty flails, hydraulically-positioned to mow around trees and posts, for example. Hydraulic side shift is standard on all models, allowing the machine to be offset to the righthand side for “unsurpassed” access and ease of operation. The 3-point linkage machine
Teagle’s mower is handy for clearing under solar panels.
is suitable for tractors from 40–100hp. Mowing height can be adjusted through the front and rear rollers to prevent scalping and leave a professional finish. A Polybelt drive system offers both drive-line protection and efficient transmission of power to the heavy-duty blades. The machine has been designed to keep routine maintenance to a minimum with easy access to all grease points. Prices are from £6,995.
Great grounding for dealer sales staff A Great Plains’ dealer sales training event held at the manufacturer’s Sleaford facility this spring has been voted a great success. A total of 73 delegates attended over three days, with each day comprising a morning session of classroom-based training and product walk-rounds followed by an afternoon session of on-field product demonstrations and training. This included a first look for all those attending at the brand-new Centurion 3m and 4m drills. Other products put through their paces included the DTX, mounted X-Press + ST Bar, trailed X-Press, SL, SLD
and the new FCN Field Cultivator. In addition, dealers were given presentations on a number of static displays including the new YPE planter and examples from the Cultipress and Unipress ranges. Feedback has been very positive.
a lot of value from the training and have gone back to their businesses with a broadened knowledge of Great Plains’ products and our philosophy, together with a real enthusiasm and determination to promote the Great Plains’ difference to their customers.”
Ross Farm Machinery’s Russ Brett says: “The day was fast-moving and informative. The products look great and we’re really keen to get underway with the new 4m drill.” Great Plains UK sales director David Holmes says: “Our dealers received

Better longevity for cultivator shares
The Cenius 3003 Special with the new C-Mix HD shares.
As an addition to the C-Mix share system for Cenius cultivators, Amazone now offers the C-Mix HD – heavy-duty – coulter for use in especially arduous conditions.
Thanks to the hard metal inserts in the main wear areas, the C-Mix HD share is characterised by a significantly higher wear resistance. This means that the share length, and
thus working depth, is maintained, avoiding the need to repeatedly readjust the working depth during operation. Depending on application and soil conditions, the lifespan is about four times longer than that of the standard system, says Amazone, resulting in extended intervals between share changes and reducing the system costs accordingly. The C-Mix HD are one-piece shares with integrated scrolled guide plate and are ideally suited for use in intensive incorporation at working depths of 12–30cm. When used in combination with the 350mm C-Mix wing shares,
it’s also possible to use them for shallower stubble cultivation. In addition the C-Mix HD share, there are two options for shallow soil tillage – the C-Mix duck-foot share or the C-Mix wing share. The C-Mix 100 tip with the 100 guide plate is ideal for medium deep operation, while the C-Mix 80 tip with the corresponding 80 guide plate handles deeper operation. Thanks to the different share options, the C-Mix share system makes the Cenius cultivators very flexible, with an operating spectrum from shallow stubble tillage via topsoil deep loosening and onto seedbed preparation. ■
Renewable winners
Trailers and spreaders drew attention
An enterprising tomato-growing business has been shortlisted in the Renewable Energy Association awards. Guy and Wright, along with Edina UK, have been shortlisted in the sustainability at innovation categories, with Guy and Wright also a finalist among the ‘pioneers’. The Much Hadham, Hertfordshire, company says it saw the potential in green energy long before it became mainstream. Using its own designs and initiative it installed an anaerobic digestion (AD) plant on its farm 10 years ago. Combining waste from its own operation with other green food waste, it had an ideal mix for gas production. To maximise the available gas, Edina UK was able to determine that at least 500We of power generation was possible. The AD and Combined Heat and Power (CHP) system combined process has multiple benefits of reducing emissions, enhancing the
Richard Western had plenty of interest in its products at Grassland UK last month. The company has made two significant changes to its Suffolk silage trailers. First is the move from metal to plastic mudguards and mud flaps. Based on a new body design this upgrade will result in better protection to the underside of the trailer and remove issues with stone chip damage and corrosion to the mudguards. Second, it is upgrading the running gear, using a new spring hanger design and biggerradius arm brushes, increasing the strength around the spring hangers and spring equalisers. On its stand were an SF18HS and an SF14HS Suffolk silage trailer, while an SF12LX was at the working demonstration. These feature flotation tyres, air brakes and more. New standard features on the 2015 models include sprung drawbar, hydraulic tailgate with rubber seal, mechanical lock
tomato crops by carbon dioxide addition to the greenhouses. In the process it avoids landfill, exports green power to the grid and uses the CHP waste heat to warm water tanks and thereby the greenhouses. As official MWM distributor in the UK and Ireland, Edina UK supplied, installed and now maintains the CHP, a TCG 2016 V12 from MWM that has been widely used in the AD sector. Edina UK has recently passed the milestone of 100MW of generation, demonstrating that it now powers the equivalent of nearly a quarter of a million homes.

The JCB Bucket Brush mounts on the new Grain Shovels.
The new Bucket Brush in an expanded and improved range of JCB Agri handling and loading machine attachments is not only durable and effective, but also takes up minimum storage space. The rotary sweeper is an indispensible tool for cleaning farm yards to minimise crop contamination and slip hazards on concrete and other hard surfaces. It also allows obligations to keep public roads clear of mud and debris when tractors and other farm vehicles have to use the roads in wet weather to be met. The new version comes with a Domex steel frame for optimum strength without making the attachment overly heavy – it weighs just 210kg. The hood is made from galvanised steel to resist corrosion. The low-profile design improves forward visibility, while quick-release mounting brackets welded to the host shovel make it easy to install or remove. A number of poly bristle cartridges form the hydraulically-driven rotary brush, with segments securely held in
place yet easily replaced when worn or damaged. They pose least possible risk of harm to livestock. At 2.67m wide overall, the new Bucket Brush is suitable for mounting on 2.13–2.44m versions of the new Grain Shovel buckets. When not in use it stands upright to take up minimal space. It’s just one of a more extensive range of JCB Agri attachments with improved performance resulting from a more refined design process and use of new materials. All are designed to get the best performance from JCB loading and handling machines – from the smallest skid-steer and compact wheeled loaders to the largest Loadall telescopic handlers and Farm Master loading shovels. Every JCB Agri attachment is delivered ready to go with the correct geometry and hydraulic coupling configuration for the host vehicle. It will be fully approved for use with JCB machines, have the correct CE certification and be supported by a replacement parts service available 24/7 through the JCB World Parts operation. ■

Harry Abell with his Polaris ATV.
Wheels in motion Harry Abell, agronomist with Agrii, is finding a Polaris ATV to be an ideal tool for his job. Agrii – which stands for Agri Intelligence – is a leading provider of agronomy services, technology and strategic advice to farmers and landowners across the UK. It helps them stay up to date with arable technology- and agronomy-led solutions to improve yields and grow profitable crops. Harry, who looks after a wide range of crops across the Midlands, recently took over a new large arable contract from an outgoing agronomist who was using a quad bike to get around. Seeing the need to do the same, having met Andrew Shepherd of
Polaris dealers All-4, he discovered the Sportsman UTE. He says: “It proved to be the ideal ATV for my needs. I unload it from my trailer and go to where I need quickly and safely. I waste no time walking from field to field. Time is a valuable asset. “I can use it to cross arable or grass fields, green lanes, steep banks and ditches – even fording brooks. “It also saves on wear and tear of my 4x4 pick-up. “The descent control is particularly effective and the power steering makes it smoother and easier to operate. “The UTE feels more secure as well, with its longer wheelbase.
Saving with the experts When leading vegetable company Albert Bartlett looked for Energy Savings Opportunity Scheme (ESOS) compliance it turned to energy management specialist Enistic. Enistic works as lead assessor, monitoring energy use and targeting energy-saving opportunities for the evidence
pack that will be submitted to the Environment Agency before 5th December this year. Albert Bartlett is one of the largest root vegetable producers in the world. Under the new ESOS scheme it needs to audit at least 90 per cent of its total energy consumption and identify savings opportunities.
“I like the Lock and Ride system where I can carry maps and my iPad securely without having to buy an extra storage box.” Initially Harry hadn’t considered Polaris but, the more farmers he talked to, the greater the recommendations became.
Director Toby Bartlett says: “We chose Enistic, first and foremost because it had the necessary expertise and resource to ensure our compliance by the December 2015 deadline.” For compliance the company needed an ESOS lead assessor. Enistic’s managing director Daryl Mattocks says: “There are only about
The final points that clinched the deal with All-4 were what come as standard at a competitive price – power steering, 4-wheel descent control, lights and mirrors. He concludes: “I can’t fault it. At the price compared to others on the market it more than fits the bill.” ■
500 lead assessors for the scheme and more than 10,000 businesses that need to report their ESOS assessment. “There’s going to be real pressure on supply and the workload. Businesses need to be sure they engage their lead assessor as soon as possible – or risk missing the deadline.”

Grain-only drill launched The new 4m grain-only version of the Great Plains Centurion cultivator drill is on display for the first time in the UK at this year’s Cereals event. The drill, the CDA 400, which boasts a new-look 3,000-litre hopper design (a 4,000-litre hopper is available as an option) is added to a growing Centurion range which also includes a new 3m version of the drill, the CDA 300. The two new drills will sit alongside the upgraded 6m Centurion CDA 600 model. In addition, grain and fertiliser variants for the UK and Western European markets will be developed later this year in 3, 4 and 6m widths. The CDA 400 features two rows of 460mm cultivation discs running ahead of a tyre packer that offers highly consistent consolidation in front of Great Plains’ well proven 00 Series openers, says the company. As an alternative to the conventional notched cultivation discs, the drill can be fitted with the Great Plains’ Turbo Coulter option where the need is for minimal disturbance and/or cutting through and drilling into high volumes of residue. This, for example, makes it ideal for use in cover crop rotations as part of a cultural grass weed control strategy where the cover crop has been sprayed off and minimal soil disturbance is necessary to help prevent the emergence of hitherto non-germinated grass weed seeds. Each Turbo Coulter is in line with the trailing double disc 00 Series opener, creating a mini-seedbed in a 30–50mm strip of soil where the seeds will actually be planted and providing every row with equal conditions. The 00 Series opener offers a choice of 167mm or 125mm coulter spacings with 36, 330 x 4mm offset double disc blades on the 167mm spacing, or 48 on the 125mm spacing. Each coulter incorporates a seed flap guiding seed close to the opener bottom to
eliminate seed bounce and an easy-touse T-handle adjuster with 18 depth settings. Hydraulically adjustable down pressure in the range of 40–160kg ensures the coulters operate at consistent depth in all soil types and that the drill performs well in both plough-based and reduced tillage systems. When equipped with the new Turbo Coulter option the new Centurion CDA 400 and CDA 300 drills can also operate very effectively in notill conditions where the soil structure allows. The seed distribution system is variable rate ready and comprises injection-moulded seed distribution heads with optional built-in tramline shut-offs and seed blockage monitors to accurately deliver seed to each coulter. The new drill folds to 3m for transport, with the transport weight being carried on the packer, which is fitted with 420/55 17 tyres. A full European lighting kit is fitted. Both the CDA 400 and the CDA 300 will be commercially available in limited numbers from autumn of this year. Prices will be announced at the event. ■

The Weighlog α10 for agricultural loaders.
Measure, monitor, meter Cereals will see RDS Technology exhibiting its extensive range of onboard weighing scales, including the Weighlog α10. Designed specifically for agricultural loaders, the Weighlog α10 incorporates a 4.3in colour, highbrightness resistive touch-screen display and additional physical keys, providing a user-friendly on-board weighing system that can be used for trailer and hopper loading, batch blending or check-weighing. Suitable for use with up to 10 different attachments, such as buckets or forks, the system can be retrofitted onto compact wheeled loaders, telescopic handlers, forklifts,
skid-steer-type loaders and tractor loaders. The system measures hydraulic pressure using up to four sensors at a certain position on the lifting cycle, compensating for pressure changes in the system. Accurate record keeping and traceability are afforded by enhanced stores capability comprising 30 products, 30 customers and up to five different ‘recipes’ designed around animal feed mixing, dispensing and grain handling. The system provides communication and data storage via SD card reader and USB 2.0 host, allowing quick, safe and efficient
uploading and downloading of data. Also on show will be the company’s Combine Moisture Meter 100. Using the same moisture sensor technology as the renowned RDS Ceres yield monitor, it eliminates the need to make frequent stops during harvesting to test grain moisture content and helps to quickly identify when conditions are, or are becoming, unsuitable for combining. Monitoring the moisture content of the crop helps to indicate its ripeness, allowing more timely harvesting decisions to be made in the field. Knowing the grain moisture
content also allows it to be stored in the optimum location according to drying or cooling requirements. Cereals will also see RDS Technology showing its wide range of monitoring and measuring instruments for farming application, including: the Artemis variable-rate seed drill control system; the Apollo Spreader control; the Ceres 8000i yield monitor system for combines; and the Delta 34i and Spraymaster 200 sprayer regulation and control systems. ■

Robust, reliable, quiet... and light Making its debut at Cereals is a completely new range of entrylevel power harrows from Pöttinger. Having made power harrows since 1975, Pöttinger has acquired in-depth knowledge of engineering robust, reliable and quiet-running machines. With many thousands of units at work around the globe, the company is now introducing the Lion Classic range, aimed specifically at small- to mediumsized farms. Rated to a maximum of 140hp, the 2.5 and 3.0m Lion Classic models are packed with useful features, such as maintenance-free cam clutch protection, full-width rear levelling board and tool-free quick-fit tines.
Despite their fit with smaller tractors, the new models have a heavy-duty central gearbox complete with large cooling fins to ensure efficient operation even over the longest of working days. The new design incorporates a new aluminium trough lid and weight-optimised taper roller bearing units to help reduce overall weight and thereby allow safe and easy handling by smaller tractors. The robust headstock offers floating and adjustable Category II linkage and, to the rear, there’s an attachment point for an optional rear hydraulic linkage kit. A robust gear drive train with rotor shafts and gears is manufactured exclusively in house by Pöttinger. Thanks to state-of-
the-art manufacturing processes, the bearing sets in the trough are exactly dimensioned and evenly spaced, ensuring quiet and smooth running. The trough itself is of a tapered design, ensuring soil flows easily to the underside, even when working at the deepest setting. A wide choice of rear rollers is available and both models are

compatible with the Pöttinger mounted seed drill range for easy and quick drill mounting. ■
Boom has slope correction Tecnoma is launching a versatile range of booms for mounted sprayers with a new patented suspension system. The Tec-Line R rear vertical folding boom replaces the RA and HLE booms from 21–30m. A large number of sections increase accuracy and help reduce the use of chemicals and, being compatible with new technologies, the boom gives the option to develop into precision farming. Pipe length has been minimised and diameter optimised to reduce
dead volumes. Pentajet nozzleholders have optional LED lights integrated for optimal lighting when working at night. A connection system uses the latest technology – the pneumatic solenoid valves are supplied on a single line, where there is permanent boom circulation with AGP. This allows the reduction of connections to increase reliability and facilitates the modification of sections. Spacing between nozzles is 250mm, while a deflector reduces
turbulence caused by wind and forward speed. Meanwhile Smart-Active is the new boom suspension offering slope correction for working on slopes up to 40 per cent. When working the slopecorrection cylinder is connected to two hydraulically-controlled accumulators, absorbing the bounce caused by undulating

New software will help maximise return on inputs Agrovista is launching two online tools at Cereals 2015 to help farmers manage their seed and chemical inputs more effectively to ensure the best return on these investments. Axis MapIT Pro data manager is the latest addition to Axis, Agrovista’s cloud-based agronomy management system designed to help farmers streamline their recordkeeping and data flow. “The amount of information farmers have to deal with is growing exponentially as the adoption of decision support and precision
farming systems grow,” says the company’s Lewis Mckerrow. “MapIT Pro software will allow many pieces of the Precision Farming jigsaw to fall into place.” One of the new software’s key roles will be to underpin variable rate drilling plans, says Mr Mckerrow. The software crunches crop biomass data scanned several times over a season, from establishment through to early yield prediction at ear emergence, to create field zones. Once other known variables are accounted for (eg slug damage, frost
heave), a zone map can be created, and from this a variable seed plan can be set up. “The MapIT Pro data manager allows these maps to be created easily,” says Mr Mckerrow. “To make a seed map, the user can choose to use an existing layer of data such as soil conductivity, yield or biomass maps, and the programme will then turn these into zoned maps at the press of a button. All the user needs to do is to add seed rates to each zone and press download. “Another option is to start with a blank field boundary and draw seed
zones manually. There are several simple tools that act like ‘crayons’ to split up fields and save the zones.” These zone layers can be selected and modified, based on subsequent plant counts and biomass scans of the crop, after the seeding plan had been applied. Another Agrovista development at Cereals is the new Plantsystems weather forecast, which aims to offer the most accurate and suitable weather predictions available to help with daily decision making. Agrovista is exhibiting on stand 427 at Cereals 2015.
Moisture and hectolitre analyser At the Cereals event Farm-Tec will be highlighting the Dickey-john GAC2500 moisture and hectolitre analyser. This unit is based on the 149 megahertz UGMA technology; it has a quick ten seconds test time, is fully compatible with weighbridges and external computer systems, stores the last 3,000 sample results and has multiple USB ports for
easy calibration imports, says the company. The unit has been successfully launched in the UK in the past two years. Currently the unit is working across the grain industry in grain stores, as well as with processors, feed mills and plant breeders. It is supported by continual monitoring from Farm-Tec – if a calibration
update is required this is simple via email and memory stick. The unit has been part of the three major PT schemes for over two years and the results have been very reassuring for customers, says the company, which will be exhibiting on stand 1034.

The widest choice of trailers farmers and contractors. Since moving to its purpose-built factory in Sleaford in 2010, Bailey Trailers’ production has increased to about 25 units per week and continues to expand thanks, it says, to a skilled workforce, dedicated dealers nationwide and a first-class product. Last winter saw the addition of a new fitting and finishing facility, extending total production area to 60,000ft2. Besides its programme of modern plant, the company has invested in computerised production planning with the promise that agreed delivery dates are always met. ■
Claiming to be the biggest trailer manufacturer in the UK and to offer the widest choice of grain and beet trailers up to 24t capacity, Bailey Trailers has also developed many specialist trailers for root crop, silage and bale haulage. A pioneer in safety features such as high-efficiency braking options, LED lights and high-visibility strips, it has now progressed to providing side ladders on its grain and root trailers for additional operator safety. And, with big kit such as combines working at distance from the farmyard, its dual-fuel bowser for diesel and AdBlue is becoming increasingly popular with large-scale
Vast range of kit showcased Spaldings is inviting visitors to Cereals to take a look at, and have a play with, its vast array of agricultural parts, tools and equipment. This year sees the addition of a mulching flail topper, a wide range of high-quality workshop tools, more than 40 new replacement parts – and much more. The company’s new front- and rear-mounted multi-flail topper has a 14mm double-skin chassis, with efficient design and high build quality providing outstanding durability, it says. A 2m version has 18 rotating flails, while the 2.4m model has 22. Both have fixed cutting flails and a serrated shear bar for highly effective shredding action. The rear roller has three height adjustments for different applications, including cutting grass, maize, scrub, stubble, fallow land and sapling trees, with a maximum cutting diameter of 115mm. The 450mm hydraulic side shaft allows it to get close to field

The FieldLoader destined for Elveden Farms.
Multi-purpose mobile handling system The UK’s leading designer and manufacturer of quality vegetablehandling equipment Tong Engineering will be showcasing a new custom-built mobile handling system and revealing its new branding at Cereals. The mobile system, commissioned for Elveden Farms in Suffolk, is based on Tong’s FieldLoader machine. It will be used predominantly for onions and carrots, but is also suitable for potatoes. It has been specifically designed so it can be used in two parts – as a
Storemaker-style machine comprising hopper, coils and end cross conveyor, or as a FieldLoader with the addition of the second chassis incorporating a ‘bit remover’, inspection table and EasyLoad extending elevator. The farm will take delivery of the machine after its showcase at Cereals. It will be using the mobile system in its Storemaker format for handling its onion crop into store, alongside new Tong standalone duo conveyors and an additional EasyLoad elevator. The machine will be used in its complete FieldLoader format for
handling carrots. The bit remover is an integral part of the custom-built design of the machine, ensuring effective removal of carrot crowns and other small waste from the crop. Visitors to the company’s stand will also see changes to its branding for the first time as Tong Peal reverts to Tong Engineering. This year is the 85th anniversary of the family business, and also marks more than 10 years since Tong Engineering took over Peal Engineering. Edward Tong says: “The registered
company name has always remained Tong Engineering. Tong Peal has been our trading name, particularly in the early days to make it clear that we continued to manufacture and supply parts and products that would have been available from Peal Engineering. “The business has grown significantly and we’ve built a strong reputation over the years. We want to build on this further and feel that going back to our well-known Tong roots is right for the next chapter of the business.” ■

Range expands to suit contractor’s requirements As a result of a specific customer request, Ryetec and Gustrower have developed a new model in the range of Gustrower’s trailed fertiliser and lime spreaders, which span 5—16m3 capacity on single or twin steering axles. The GDK9000 is a 9m3-capacity base machine with the opportunity to increase to 12.5m3 with optional extension sides. It uses the proven double-axle unit with rear-axle
steering and suspension from the company’s 20t chaser bin. This gives a machine that not only spreads its weight over a greater area of rubber than a single-axle machine but is also manoeuvrable, as the machine turns around the front axle of the tandem which is closer to the tractor than a single axle on the smaller GDK8000. The first GDK9000 in the UK will be delivered to its new owners

in June, straight after being exhibited at Cereals, complete with a self-loading crane. Also new for 2015 is Section Control with headland management to maximise application accuracy and minimise wasted product. All Gustrowers are very accurate and capable fertiliser
spreaders with full spreading charts and spreading patterns for spread widths up to 42m, says Ryetec. ■
Additional roles for rolls Dal-Bo will be focusing on two key areas at Boothby Graffoe this year – the battle with black-grass and the increased use of rolls in cultivation systems. On show for the first time in the UK will be the new Maxiroll with front harrow sections, which is based on the standard 6m and 8m Maxiroll frame. To optimise the germination of black-grass, it’s very important to work as close as possible behind the combine harvester to create a
shallow seedbed, mixing the soil with the black-grass seed, and then to consolidate it by rolling, says Dal-Bo. The Maxiroll comprises a tine frame mounted at the front of the roll with four rows of 16mm tines and independent depth wheels, followed by either Cambridge/ Breaker, Crosskill or Cross Combi roll choices. While, in the past, rolls have generally been used for consolidation after drilling to ensure
Dal-Bo’s new Maxiroll.
good seed to soil contact, they are increasingly being used, with the addition of cracker boards, as an aid to seedbed preparation. Dal-Bo will be showing for the first time a 12m Maxiroll with
cracker boards combining the features of a 12.5t roll with the additional benefits of a frontmounted, hydraulically-adjusted, soil-working cracker board which increases the weight to 13.7t.

A trench conveyor is a fixed piece of equipment and does require some civils work to install. However, says McArthur Agriculture, with its guidance this work can be easily undertaken. Using a high-capacity hopper can place up to 50t of wet grain behind the dryer, allowing three batches to
be dried automatically with a Mecmar D 24T. The hopper is a quick and affordable way to create a flexible continuous batch drying system. There are also many possible combinations of these two common systems. Mecmar acknowledges that each farm has very different requirements and can advise not only on the grain dryer itself, but also all aspects of the grain drying and storage system. ■

farming enterprise DJ Boyce (Outwell), which had recently made the move from mounted to trailed sprayer with a Sprinter. Since they were both customers of Boston Crop Sprayers, it was a simple matter to arrange a visit to see whether the Sprinter would measure up to Alan’s needs. And it did. He says: “I’d had very little trouble with the Berthoud Force over 18 years and it made sense to stick with the brand. “So I ordered the same model as Mr Boyce, but with 24m booms and the addition of the DP Tronic regulation. Now I can spray 20ha (50 acres) in less than two hours without refilling. “The DP Tronic automatically adjusts application rate to my forward speed, so I can drive according to the conditions on the day while knowing the correct amount of spray is being applied. Once I got my head around it, the DP Tronic was simple to use.” The 2,500-litre Sprinter is aimed at customers looking for a modern, compact and lightweight machine. Its design combines the practical

When a sizeable chunk of extra business took the contracting arm of Alan Humprey’s business to a new level in 2014, he soon realised his largely manual 12m sprayer was a constraint. He found his mounted Berthoud was too small to meet crucial spray timings across the annual equivalent of 64ha (1,600 acres) of spraying, carried out from his Glebe Farm, Cuckoo Bridge near Spalding. “The new contract meant more roadwork and I realised I’d be spending too much time going up and down 12m tramlines and on the frequent refilling of the 1,000-litre tank. Time I could easily spend more productively,” Alan says. He’s operated Berthoud sprayers since 1996. Although the company is probably better known for mounted, larger trailed and self-propelled sprayers, it has also consistently produced innovative, cost-effective sprayers for those with more modest acreages, such as Alan.

Most powerful tractor on show The first M7001 agricultural tractors for the UK market will be rolling off Kubota’s production line ready to take centre stage on the machinery lines on 10th and 11th June. Built at the company’s new manufacturing facility in northern France, the M7001 series is Kubota’s most powerful tractor to date. Available in three models – M7131, M7151 and M7171 – the series is ideal for carrying out a wide range of jobs on both arable and mixed farms and boasts features to maximise performance, reliability and operator comfort and control. The company’s agricultural product manager Mike Bywater says: “It’s an extremely exciting launch for Kubota as we move into the mainstream agricultural market. “There’s been a lot of interest since this series was first unveiled at Lamma, so we’re delighted they’re now coming off the factory line ready for our UK customers.” Along with the M7001, visitors to Kubota’s stand will also be able to see special show editions of its new RTVX900 utility vehicle and its MGX135-II tractor, which have been
custom-designed for the launch of these two updated models. They will show what’s possible, and act as a focal point to attract new people to the stand. A large number of other machines from Kubota’s product line-up will also be on display at the show, from its industry-leading compact tractors to ground-care equipment and its M series tractor range, such as its new MGX-II. ■
Kubota moves into the mainstream market with the M7001.
Professional pest control By the end of this year, Command Pest Control will have been trading for 30 years. During that time it has built up a professional and reliable service, specialising in the agricultural and grain sectors. Its services include: rodent control; grain fumigation; grain store treatments; grain store cleaning; grain monitoring; and rabbit and mole control. Although based in East Anglia, it employs trained technicians covering an area from Hampshire to Yorkshire. Knowledge and experience is promoted to the
company’s staff through its training centre, ensuring that they are all aware of new ideas and changes in the industry. The benefit of using Command for rodent control is that it is at the forefront for new products coming onto the market, often being the first to field-trial these products for leading manufacturers. Rodent control has changed over the years, Command points out, with certain niche products being withdrawn and rats and mice in some areas becoming far more tolerant to the mainstream
rodenticides. Command has adopted new ideas and products to achieve control in all types of situations, including grain stores and game cover areas. Its pre-harvest grain store treatments are carried out using specialist high-powered sprayers, ensuring that all areas of the store are treated at the correct dosage, as recommended by the manufacturer. Those who opt for low-rate fogging treatments often pay the price with insect infestation and costly rejections, Command says.

No compromise needed with min-till drill
The Espro has a power requirement of less than 35hp per metre of working width.
Kuhn Farm Machinery is using Cereals to officially launch a 6m minimum-tillage drill capable of being pulled by a 200hp tractor and drilling accurately at up to 17kph. The Espro has been designed with an equal focus on three key aspects of the drilling process – speed, accuracy and efficiency,
combining the best of Kuhn’s existing seed-drilling technologies with a selection of innovative design elements. Two rows of 460mm concave discs are responsible for opening the soil and incorporating all residues into the surface layers, creating a fine tilth and functioning effectively even
in heavy conditions, says Kuhn. The discs are followed by a row of 900mm-diameter press wheels that create an evenly-consolidated soil profile for consistent seed-to-soil contact. The Crossflex seed bar has coulter arms mounted on polyurethane blocks that provide a secure fixing but with enough spring movement to maintain a precise seed depth. Double-disc coulters, as used on Kuhn’s Seedflex system, provide precision seed placement for optimum crop performance. The Espro is Isobus-compatible and can be operated via Kuhn’s CC1200 Isobus or VT50 non-Isobus terminals. A joystick is also available.
Remember November? From November 2015 if you are a user of aluminium phosphide for the control of rats, moles and rabbits, you will need to have an accredited certificate to demonstrate you can use it safely. Additionally anyone who purchases it must ensure that the user is certified.
RSPH has introduced the Level 2 Award in using Aluminium Phosphide Safely for the Management of Vertebrate Pests to get you ready for the deadline.
Find us at Cereals –
Stand 440
Key features This qualification consists of a theory based unit assessed by a short exam and a competence unit assessed by practical exercises. RSPH approved centres can assess their own candidates meaning there is no need for you or the centre to find an assessor following the course. Once you gain the qualification your details (with approval) will be passed on to Register of Accredited Metallic Phosphide Standards (RAMPS)
Find your nearest RSPH approved centre by visiting www.rsph.org.uk/qualifications
Interested in becoming a centre? Call us on 0207 265 7300 or email alphos@rsph.org.uk
supported by:
Ofqual accredited and approved by the Chemicals Regulation Directorate as a specified certificate under the Plant Protection Products Regulations 2012
The drill is equipped with a headland management mode that lifts the working elements in sequence to allow drilling right up to the field edge, while avoiding any seed being left on the soil surface. Calibration is a simple sub-fiveminute exercise, while the front working discs, seeding depth and coulter pressure can all be set and adjusted using easy-to-access clips on hydraulic cylinders. Front working and seeding discs have zero-maintenance sealed bearings and, elsewhere, the number of pivot points and moving sections that require attention are minimal. A 3m version will also be available, with others to follow. ■
Rats! More accreditation needed From November, new legislation will make it illegal to sell aluminium phosphide to anyone who can’t produce an accredited certificate of competency. And the Royal Society for Public Health’s (RSPH’s) new Level 2 Award in Using Aluminium Phosphide Safely for the Management of Vertebrate Pests is one of the few certificates that will be accepted under the new rules. The qualification offers users the opportunity to expand their knowledge of how to use this important chemical under the new legislation and is supported by Agrovista, Rentokil, Killgerm, the British Pest Control Association and the National Pest Technician’s Association. The organisation strongly advises users to gain their certificates in time to avoid having a vital part of their pest control resources restricted. The RSPH says that all its certificates and diplomas in pest management are a long-standing staple of training for pest controllers and could be highly applicable to land managers and agricultural workers. At Cereals, the RSPH will be previewing its new qualification in the use of rodenticides, designed to comply with new regulations that will come into effect in June 2016 which mean that rodenticides can’t be used unless users have obtained a specified qualification in the safe use of the substances. The organisation invites visitors to its stand for more information on its qualifications and to find how it can provide them with professional development and added value to their services. ■

Open nitrogen seminars
Ian Matts.
Yara will be hosting open seminars with practical demonstrations to give farmers the information they need to achieve a 250 per cent return on investment from nitrogen. Yara UK’s company agronomist Ian Matts says: “Yara trials show that, with correct management of rate and time, accurate application and no other limiting nutrients, farmers can achieve this 250 per cent return.” Three steps will be under discussion. The first will be addressing nutrient deficiencies and plant health with soil and tissue analysis as well as diagnostic use of apps such as CheckIT. Second will be ensuring application accuracy through the use of quality nitrate granules, uniform compounds or liquid solutions and product compatibility with the TankmixIT app. The final step towards maximising returns from N is finetuning applications using tools such as N-Tester, N-Sensor and ImageIT. Ian says: “Plots on the Velcourt stand will have a field demonstration of the N-Sensor and the new handheld N-Tester. Using data from these tools allows farms to take a more bespoke approach to timing and application on a field-by-field basis.” The 20-minute seminars will be held on the Yara stand at 10.30am and 2.30pm, repeated each day. For anyone unable to attend the seminars, or looking for more in-depth discussion on how to improve decision making on farm, Yara agronomists will be available throughout the show. Yara will also be running a competition to win the use of some of these tools for the 2016 season.
Newcomer brings novel machinery Exhibiting for the first time in the UK, Quartermaine-Agri will be showing a patented shallow cultivator, roller packer and a range of combine accessories. The Heko ringcutter, available exclusively through QuartermaineAgri, is designed and built in Germany. The machine breaks the whole ground surface with front flat cultivators, which are followed by two rows of ring cutters that work at a shallow depth and at high speed. It handles straw stubble with ease, with the ring cutters lifting the soil and stubble, breaking it up and
sieving it before returning to the surface where the following press consolidates it. When used directly behind the combine harvester, this system provides ideal conditions for weed and grass seed germination, while also speeding up the decomposition of crop residues. Also on display will be a spring steel roller packer that has a flexible ring within a retaining fork. This allows the ring to move sideways and vertically, effectively self-cleaning when soils become damp. The packer is available to fit new and existing cultivators and power

Quartermaine-Agri will also be showing a range of combine harvester upgrades, such as wide-louvre adjustable top and bottom sieves that improve air flow and provide better cleaning with minimal losses. Another design, suitable for oilseed rape, is the Polymer deflector sieve. Both sieves are available for a wide range of combine models. Finally, the company also supplies Airjet chopper blades for the back of the combine. These produce an intensive air flow, pushing chopped material further beyond the sides of the machine. ■

Tempting trio on show The hi-tech ZA-V fertiliser spreader from Amazone.
Amazone is using Cereals as a launch pad for not one, but three, major new products. The ZA-V fertiliser spreader comes into the range beneath the flagship ZA-TS models. Its 700-litre seam-free base hopper and Super and Ultra frame options are brought over from the ZA-TS, but the V-Spreading system uses a new simpler aperture, agitation and disc system. The new aperture is designed for outputs of up to 6.4kg/sec, ample for working widths up to 36m and forward speeds of up to 30kph. Its teardrop shape handles the fertiliser tightly onto the centre of the spreading discs, reducing fertiliser shatter and any influence of spread rate on spread pattern. Spreading widths vary from 10—36m. Hopper options range from 1,700 litres up to 4,200 litres, with a 600 or 800 litre extension available. The
Super and Ultra frames offer payloads of 3,200kg and 4,500kg respectively. The ZA-V Control offers a simple speed-related spread rate adjustment via the new Amaspread in-cab terminal. The ZA-V is driven mechanically via the pto shaft, yet still offers 8-fold partwidth section control, either manually or automatically via GPS-Switch. Meanwhile, the new AD-P Special combination drill brings over the new metering system, air venturi and fan from the Cirrus trailed drills. Even the entry-level AD-P Special is
equipped with electric metering drive as standard. Speed source is via radar, guide wheel, GPS or tractor source and is controlled by Amadrill or Amatron 3. Calibration on either is at the press of a button in the cab. Working widths are 3.0, 3.5 and 4.0m; hopper sizes are 850 or 1,250 litres, with an optional 250-litre extension. Seed pipe monitoring is available on all rows – the system not only senses a blockage, but also any change in the average seed rate. Row spacing is 12.5 or 16.6cm on
both the WS Suffolk and the RoTec disc coulter. The all-new Roller harrow can now contour-follow for better reconsolidation in extremes of soil conditions. In wet conditions the press rollers can be swung out of the way leaving just the drag tine harrow for seed coverage. Finally, the Certos heavy compact disc harrow comes into the range alongside the existing Catros and Catros+ compact disc harrows, as featured in Farmers Guide May issue, page 92. ■
Getting serious about sulphur Farmers who are serious about sulphur should check out Brimstone 90 on JS Tech’s stand, number 301. Although well proven in the UK and worldwide, this will be the product’s first appearance at Cereals. Sulphur deficiency is getting more and more widespread according to the HGCA, with negative effects on yield, nitrogen utilisation and crop quality. “Brimstone 90 is the state-of-
the-art in sulphur fertilisers,” claims JS Tech’s Simon Stell. “Sulphate fertilisers leach out quickly, but Brimstone 90 releases continually usable sulphate throughout the crop cycle. It also builds up the sulphur in the soil for the following crop. Dust-free and with great spreading characteristics over a wide range of spreaders, it also disperses in the soil much more efficiently than its competitors,
providing an even distribution of sulphate in the crop.” JS Tech will also be showing, for the first time in the UK, a new range of innovative bio-stimulants. These include Bombardier, a novel humic based bio-stimulant that improves fertiliser utilisation, Mycogel, a unique patented mycorrhizae root enhancer in liquid form, and Rhyzo, a new type of root enhancing additive and bio-nutrient.

A thoroughbred sprayer The latest sprayer offering from Team Sprayers.
Named after a flying horse of ancient mythology, Arian is the latest mounted model to join the Team Sprayers’ stable. It’s designed for contractors who need a tough, Britishbuilt sprayer to meet every possible application need from smooth silt to intensive bed work. It will be among the many trailed and mounted models on display at Cereals. Sales director Danny Hubbard says: “It’s the boom that takes the punishment, and we’ve designed and built a range of robust options up to 24m in steel tubular sections with a three-dimensional structure that guarantees years of strength and durability, plus a very good ride on all surfaces.”
Booms can be part-folded to give working widths from 9, 11 and 12m. Variable boom geometry is an optional extra, while triple nozzle assemblies are also offered. Tank capacities are 1,000, 1,200 and 1,500 litres with the option of front tanks up to 1,500 litres. Team’s front-mounted tanks increase spraying capacity and therefore productivity. The units are quick and easy to mount and demount, being fitted with quick-release couplings on all liquid and hydraulic hoses. Each is fitted with a 700 litre/min transfer pump, while in-cab controls allow fast transfer of liquid to the rear tank during the spraying operation. The low-line 1,000- and 1,500-litre tanks increase operator visibility and ground clearance. Being closecoupled to the tractor they also reduce overall length and optimise weight distribution. The robust steel chassis has foldaway legs. At 600 and 800 litres, smaller tanks are also available. ■
Smart uses for pressure washers Pressure washers have long been the farmer’s go-to tool when it comes to cleaning down valuable farming equipment and vehicles, protecting the item itself from corrosion-causing debris, and defending livestock against the spread of infection. However, there are plenty of other time-saving uses around the farm, and the rural businesses the industry is diversifying into, says Kärcher. Equally at home in barns or farm shops, its FRV 30 hard surface tool allows for the cleaning of concreted, tarmacked or tiled areas without splashing or leaving dirty water behind. Indoors or out, it “dramatically” reduces the downtime of the area being cleaned, and saves all the time previously taken to manually clear away the water. Another huge time saver is Kärcher’s Inno Foam Set. Instead
of the laborious process of lime washing, stockmen achieved a 60 per cent time saving by applying disinfectant with Inno Foam and significantly reduced salmonella and enterobacteria levels, according to a recent study with the British Pig Executive. Elsewhere on the farm, iSolar is a pressure washer attachment solar revenue protection tool. Since a build-up of dirt on solar panels leads to a loss in power, reducing both what is generated for own use and any compensation received for feeding electricity into the grid, iSolar pays for itself “in no time” says Kärcher. The company is proud to be a member of the NFU Farmer and Grower, NFUS and UFU Affinity Schemes where union members are entitled to receive five per cent cashback on the purchase of all Kärcher professional machines, accessories and detergents.

Minimising wind farm disruption Offshore wind farms are now a common sight around the coast of East Anglia. Most need an onshore electrical connection to take the electricity generated onto the national grid. These onshore connections can be a disruption to the farming operation and, therefore, remedial drainage needs to be considered as part of the preceding negotiations, warns Miles Drainage. It recommends remedial drainage in areas that are likely to contain existing land drains or drainage systems and/or where the soil has a clay content.
The works will generally involve the installation of one or more land drains complete with permeable fill installed parallel with the working strip boundary. In areas where the major fall on the land is along the cable route, stone drains will also be proposed across the working strip. Where there is no natural outfall for the land drains within the cable route, off-easement drainage will be needed to take the drain to a suitable outfall. All proposed drainage works are permanent installations, except where the existing drainage scheme is water-jetted. In these cases all
drains are to be reinstated across the cable route. Miles Drainage provides a full design and installation service for all types of remedial drainage requirements and offers extensive experience of major Miles Drainage has great experience of cross-country cross-country utility utility projects. projects. for all types of farmland throughout In addition, agricultural farm the eastern counties and beyond, drainage remains a key part of its as well as the installation of water business.

There will also be the chance to discuss with the monitor farmers how involvement in the programme has started to reap rewards for their – and their neighbours’ – arable enterprises. BCE will be profiling its work with overseas grain buyers and governments and offering the chance to find out about uks and ukp wheat varieties. Finally, cookery demonstrations will follow recipes developed by HGCA to encourage people to use rapeseed oil in their everyday cooking. Director Rebecca Geraghty says: “The sector has changed radically over the past 50 years and will continue to do so. “This key milestone in the
organisation’s history provides a perfect opportunity to reflect on how far the industry has come and how we can further evolve to ensure a prosperous and productive future.” She adds: “We want to provide cereals and oilseeds businesses with the tools and knowledge to thrive in years to come and in our new incarnation we’ll be better-placed to make sure every penny of levy is invested for the maximum benefit of our levy payers. “Cereals is about meeting those people face to face and giving them access to the information they need to improve their businesses, as well as
highlighting how much we’re doing behind the scenes to prepare the industry for what lies ahead.” HGCA, constituted as the HomeGrown Cereals Authority by the Cereals Marketing Act 1965, was brought together with other agricultural and horticultural levy boards in 2008 under the AHDB (Agriculture and Horticulture Development Board) banner. The rebrand will also see BPEX become AHDB Pigs, DairyCo become AHDB Dairy, EBLEX become AHDB Beef & Lamb, HDC become AHDB Horticulture and Potato Council become AHDB Potatoes. ■

to suppress black-grass – mean it’s now being seen as an alternative to second wheat. Syngenta is hoping that highyielding spring malting barley Sanette will achieve full Institute of Brewing and Distilling approval for brewing around the time of its appearance on its Cereals plots. The ability of a new cereal seed treatment that harnesses new-generation SDHI fungicide technology to both control key seedling diseases and boost rooting power will also be demonstrated. “Reliable” and “exceptionally high-yielding”, new hybrid oilseed rape variety SY Harnas now has full HGCA Recommended Listing across the UK. Its strong autumn vigour helps achieve excellent early establishment, countering autumn pest and disease pressure. Trial plots will also demonstrate the first use of Toprex applications to manage crop architecture, enhance light penetration and green leaf photosynthetic activity. ■

There are plenty of reasons to visit J Brock & Sons, which will again be using Cereals as a showcase for its quality range of new and used cultivation equipment. In particular, this year sees the launch of the Farmet range of tillage equipment. These quality machines sit comfortably alongside Brock’s own range of heavy-duty cultivators, a fresh range of Brock attachments, Brock parts solutions and the well-regarded Brock used machinery selection, the company says. The Farmet range has developed over many years to include disc and tine cultivators.
Up to four separate machines will be on display. Brock parts solutions will be giving away free gifts, while displaying a selection from its wide range of parts and sundries, including Bourgault, the quickchange cultivation and drilling system. A working plot will give the opportunity to see several machines in action. Based in Essex, only 12 miles from London Stansted airport and less than two hours from Boothby Graffoe, J Brock & Sons has a wellpresented yard with more than 300 machines in stock.

Award-winning sprayer stars Following its success at Lamma, at which its BoomControl system took top honours, Horsch will be displaying the PT 280 self-propelled sprayer which will be seen at Cereals for the first time. It will also be showing its newlylaunched Joker RT with levelling board and its new TurboDisc seed coulter. Horsch has updated its selfpropelled sprayer to “keep it ahead of the competition” and meet strict new emissions standards. A 285hp Mercedes engine now powers the new Leeb PT 280, providing a 15hp power increase over the PT 270 it replaces. The 7.7-litre 6-cylinder turbo engine uses Mercedes’ latest AdBlue technology to meet Tier 4 requirements. The radiator is now mounted horizontally and the radiator fan is now hydraulically-driven, not directly dependent on engine speed. Road speed has been increased to 50kph. A proven hydrostatically-stepless hydroshift gear unit and mechanical axis drive, in place of hydraulic motors, give better traction in hilly terrain.
Close nozzle spacing, pneumatic nozzle control, an advanced cleaning system and BoomControl Pro complete the package. BoomControl Pro offers an exact positioning of the boom, keeping it very close to the target even at higher speeds and on hilly terrain. Developed in house, it uses two fast-acting air rams working in opposition to deliver very smooth boom movement. Gyros and boom-mounted sensors feed data to an advanced proportional control system that counteracts virtually all yaw and roll. Fitted to Leeb trailed and selfpropelled sprayers, the system won the Lamma 2015 top award – Best New Product or Innovation – as well as the crop production equipment category. Meanwhile, the recently-launched Joker RT cultivator features a hydraulically-operated levelling board. The board comprises a row of levelling paddles at the leading edge of the RT’s frame, allowing it to be used for stubble cultivation or, when the board is lowered, directly onto ploughed land.
The Horsch Leeb PT 280 with BoomControl Pro.
The Joker RT, in 6m or 8m versions, has a longer frame to provide room for a double packer, while more space behind the cultivation discs gives more time for the soil to settle. The transport wheels have been moved from the rear to the centre for better balance during road transport. Also, a new TurboDisc seed coulter has been developed for all drills with a double-disc coulter, such as the Pronto, Express and Focus. A new curved seed tube and a shallower angle of the Uniformer reduces the drop angle of the seed, giving a smoother and more accurate seed placement for a more uniform germination.
The improved design also allows impact forces to be distributed more evenly for great reliability and resistance to wear. The coulter’s development has been made possible thanks to a new advanced hydroforming manufacturing technique – a process used in automotive engineering and very high-quality bicycles. It uses enormous pressure to press steel parts and tubes together into complex precision parts. In addition, the press wheel tyre is now softer with a larger diameter, preventing soil sticking to it. The new scraper is slightly inclined and can be adjusted quickly and easily. ■

New varieties challenge yield thresholds Limagrain is describing all three of the oilseed rape, wheat and bean varieties that it’s introducing at Cereals as “exciting”. Nikita is a conventional winter oilseed rape candidate variety, with a gross output of 110 per cent on the east—west HGCA Recommended List putting it in joint highest position – 10 per cent above DK Cabernet and 12 per cent over Excalibur. In the north it achieves a 114 per cent gross output, making it the second-best variety there. It has a light leaf spot (LLS) rating of 8, which would make it the highest on the HGCA Recommended List. Limagrain UK senior oilseed rape breeder Dr Vasilis Gegas notes that in years when LLS pressure is high and widespread, such as 2015, resistance ratings may come under pressure and that, therefore, there’s a distinct advantage in starting with the highest rating possible. He says: “In addition, Nikita has the short, stiff stems that growers prefer for ease of harvest, and very
good lodging resistance. It’s medium to flower and mature.” Fully recommended in 2014, Britannia is a high-yielding Group 3 biscuit wheat producing yields comparable to the feed wheats. The company’s Ron Granger states that, rated 104 across the UK and two points higher than stablemate Zulu, Britannia is the highestyielding variety in the biscuit wheat category. “It sets a benchmark yield that elevates it above the rest of the pack,” he says. Similar in height to Invicta and JB Diego, the variety is moderately stiff-strawed, and similar in ripening maturity to Scout. It also offers a very good disease resistance profile, with an 8 for yellow rust and a 6 for septoria tritici, combined with good grain quality attributes. Added to the PGRO Recommended List in 2014 as the highest-yielding winter bean, Tundra’s pale skin and pale hilum make it potentially suitable for the premium export market for human
Candidate variety Nikita has a LLS rating of 8.

consumption. Offering a nine per cent yield advantage over long-time market leader Wizard at 106 per cent, Tundra has good agronomic attributes, being moderately short-strawed with good standing ability. It is also relatively early to mature.
Superior storage hoppers The latest-available technology and most recent advances in raw materials have gone into the redesign of Bentall Rowland’s Polygon feed silos. The range now comes with the same world-renowned high build quality found in its larger industrial silos, such as Z600 galvanisation as standard, improving its capability to withstand the harshest environments. The Polygon silos come in a variety of sizes from 4 to 39m3,
with cone angles of 45 and 67 degrees to accommodate storage of different materials. They have a 4in fill pipe, 6in exhaust and the industry standard 450mm outlet. Side-discharge options are also available. Additional features include: see-through hopper access doors; sight glasses; bagging-off chutes; access and roof ladders complete with cage; and weigh-cellcompatible feet. The Polygon is also available in a high-lift variant and can be
mounted on a drive-through gantry for loading lorries. Bentall Rowlands says that its design team has considered all its clients’ requirements, from planning issues to the aesthetics of new developments. The Polygon can be supplied in a range of colours and is supplied as a complete unit in the UK, or in kit form for erection overseas. The company also offers a full range of centre-less auger systems in 75, 90 and 130mm to complement the new range.

Making better use of OSR genetics To meet major challenges facing the crop, growers need to capitalise far more on the opportunities for maximising oilseed rape profitability that modern genetics offer. That’s the challenge thrown down by Dekalb, which will be highlighting some of those opportunities at Cereals, namely: boosting returns from premium High Oleic Low Linolenic (HOLL) production; cutting fungicide costs and improving spraying flexibility with the highest levels of combined phoma and light leaf spot resistance; minimising canopy nitrogen fertiliser requirements through better early winter growth; reducing harvest risks and pod sealant needs with pod shatter resistance; and overcoming critical weed problems with the Clearfield system. Winter oilseed rape remains one of the best combinable cereal breaks. But it’s become increasingly expensive to grow for many, while remaining more variable in its delivery than most alternatives, says seeds and traits marketing manager Deryn Gilbey (below).
The earnings-improving and yield-protecting traits its hybrid breeding programme has been progressively building into the crop have been ‘nice to haves’ for many, but are fast-becoming essentials for most, he adds. The company estimates that savings of £25—£40/t can be made by taking advantage of disease resistance of the highest order, reliable fast and early growth and pod shatter resistance. Its breeding programme continues to improve the breadth as well as depth of disease resistance, and introduces the full range of yieldprotecting traits into low-biomass, HOLL and Clearfield varieties. It is now also building extra tolerance to nutritional stress into its varieties to offer even greater possibilities. ■
System for min-till and subsoiling In the NG system, JJ Metcalfe & Son sets out to design something that would produce the bestpossible growing conditions for a high crop yield. Available on min-till and subsoil machines, the system achieves this aim, the company says, by: shattering compaction layers; providing low-disturbance soil loosening; reducing surface break-out; and preventing clods forming on top of the soil. The NG’s low surface disturbance leg reduces the unwanted germination of dormant weed seeds such as black-grass. At the same time it improves drainage by not smearing the soil
in plastic conditions, while still providing good penetration in drier environments. Last year JJ Metcalfe & Son introduced a variety of interchangeable shins to contend with specific soil types and improve wear rates. To further increase the life of the NG system, a chromium boron steel cover plate is now available. The tungsten carbide along the front edge of the wing long outlasts the steel behind. The cover plate prolongs the life of the wing to extract as much possible use from the tungsten carbide. It sits on top of the wing, but behind the tungsten carbide and

So much more than just OSR New techniques to boost the profitability of oilseed rape, growing mixed forages for cover cropping and energy production, plus a range of new seed varieties, will be the main features of the DSV stand. As well as introducing the next generation of high-output hybrid oilseed rape varieties, a portfolio of DSV maize varieties will be launched for the first time. The company’s Sarah Hawthorne says: “Varieties such as Compass and Lioness and, more recently, Incentive and Popular have established DSV as breeder of class-leading hybrid oilseed rapes and most people know
us for that. “But visitors to Cereals will realise there’s much more to DSV than many think.” Popular is currently the highestperforming mainstream variety in the HGCA 2015/16 East—West Recommended List with a gross output of 107.4 per cent of control, and oil content of 46.0 per cent and scores of 8 for both lodging resistance and stem stiffness. Incentive, which topped both the Northern and East—West RL last year, has the highest average yield of all current RL varieties over the past four years.
Tank capacity investment A growing preference for more efficient liquid fertiliser is reflecting in a significant increase in investment at crop nutrition company BFS Fertiliser Services. Seven new 100,000-litre storage tanks have been installed at its production site at Ilgars in Essex, substantially increasing on-site storage capacity. At the same time, two new stateof-the-art road tankers are being added to the company’s delivery capacity.
“Visitors will be able to see these varieties growing as well as look at the next wave of oilseed rape hybrids from DSV’s breeding development programme,” says Sarah. “We’ll also have plots looking at the best options for establishing crops without neonicotinoids, including drilling date, plant populations and cultivation method.” The concept of under-sowing oilseed rape with legumes and grass mixtures will also be featured. Early indications suggest this can make crops more self-sufficient nutritionally, improve soil condition and suppress weeds as well as making subsequent
crops more productive. The new maize portfolio will be announced at the event, and a new range of CAP-compliant forage and cereal mixes will be on demonstration, as will mixes specifically developed for biogas production. Sarah adds: “We’ll also be showing the soil-conditioning capabilities of our TerraLife range of cover crop mixes and visitors will be able to see how they work in the soil to open it and add organic matter. “The winner of our Tap Root Challenge to see which UK grower produced the biggest root of Incentive this year will also be announced.” ■
Seven new 100,000-litre storage tanks have been installed at BFS Fertiliser Services’ production site at Ilgars in Essex, substantially increasing on-site storage capacity.
As well as increasing its own capacity, the company has been busy installing storage tanks on farms throughout the south of England, as growers make the switch from solid to liquid fertiliser to take advantage of the significant benefits that liquids provide. The main advantage is economic, says director Rosalind Platt. She explains: “Unlike solid fertilisers, they can be applied with precision right up to the headland, allowing crops to be grown right up
to the field edge and significantly increasing the yield potential.” Headlands are generally believed to account for about five per cent of available land, she points out. Liquids also ensure consistency of application, eliminate field margin contamination and reduce waste – helping to comply with NVZ guidelines. In addition, wider bouts can be used which not only reduces wheel damage but also saves time – essential in short weather windows.
Using BFS Fertilisers’ solutions, which are more concentrated and tailored to each farm’s requirements, allows application rates to be reduced. Put together, that means users can employ their labour and machinery more efficiently.

Strength in numbers The Austrian company Agri Farm will be showing a selection from its comprehensive range of tillage implements at Cereals. Its full line-up includes cultivators, compact disc harrows, subsoilers and front-mounted implements. The family-run firm, founded in 1977 by Franz Reiter, pays particular attention to the practicality and durability of its machines, using only quality highstrength steel. The Eurocult II cultivator is a universal implement for stubble breaking, cover crop tilling, weed elimination and seedbed preparation. Fine and uniform
mixing is achieved by five rows of strong spring tines, while two rows of cage rollers powerfully consolidate the soil. Meanwhile the Europlan II is a cultivator that produces a fine and level seedbed with highly-accurate depth guidance of individual elements. The two-layer Soilbreaker subsoiler breaks and loosens compressed soil up to a depth of 70cm. Agri Farm’s machines are available for a wide range of horsepower – from 90–400hp – in mounted as well as semi-mounted formats.

A novel way to raise awareness of breast cancer.
A new shade of summer Farmers around the country are being encouraged to go pink this summer to raise awareness of breast cancer in agricultural communities and rural areas. Leading crop-packaging manufacturer Tama Plastic Industry will be supplying a limited quantity of 3,600m Edge-to-Edge pink netwrap, and donating a percentage per roll to Cancer Research UK. Tama technical manager Graham Robson says: “The distinctive colour is sure to be noticed and bring the issue to people’s attention. “Women have integral roles in the contracting and farming businesses that we work with and seldom receive the attention and recognition they deserve. “We wanted to do something
to encourage awareness of breast cancer in the rural community and making the netwrap pink, the familiar colour indicator of campaign supporters, is our way of doing this and of recognising the unsung heroes in farming – the women!” The netwrap can be purchased across all Cornwall Farmers and Patch & Acre stores. Cornwall Farmers marketing manager Helen Ansel says: “We’re delighted to be supplying the pink netwrap as members of the United Farmers, supporting cancer research. “It’ll be great to see the bales of hay wrapped in the pink netting in the fields around Cornwall, creating awareness and raising money for such a good cause.” ■

Choice of normal-structure or advanced-trait OSR At Cereals, DuPont Pioneer is launching four new winter oilseed rape hybrids for first-time commercial planting in 2015, and also showing the newly-recommended hybrid PT234. Two normal structure hybrids, one Maximus semi-dwarf hybrid and one normal structure Clearfield hybrid are joining its line-up. All four were registered after completing National List trials.
In addition, the normal structure hybrid PT234, launched in 2014, is now newly added to the HGCA North Recommended List. The shortest normal structure hybrid in the Pioneer portfolio with an earliness of flowering score of 7 and a maturity score of 6, PT234 has given extremely consistent gross output yield scores of 109, 107 and 110 per cent in Official and HGCA trials through 2012, 13 and 14.
A Maximus semi-dwarf hybrid with a typical height of 128cm, PX117 boasts the highest oil content of any Pioneer Maximus hybrid so far tested in the UK. With PT240CL, given its stem canker resistance score of 7, growers intending to use Clearfield technology in 2015 now have available disease resistance levels at a similar level to those in nonClearfield types.
Meanwhile, PT235 is the first Pioneer Protector club root-tolerant hybrid to be registered in the UK. Its stem canker score of 7 is significantly higher than most other club roottolerant hybrids currently marketed in the UK. Finally, PT244 is a normal structure hybrid with a yield equal to PR46W21 in UK National List trials but with a stem canker score of 6 and a light leaf score of 5. ■
Curved conveying equipment
BDC Systems will be showing this new intake conveyor.
A new Skandia KTHG 80tph intake conveyor will be the star of the show for grain drying, handling and storage equipment specialist BDC Systems. The machine is part of a new range of curved industrial conveying equipment with 60— 120tph capacities from the Swedish manufacturer. These Skandia H range
conveyors are manufactured from pre-galvanised steel, have directdrive Nord motor gearboxes, heavyduty chain with plastic flights and 8mm plastic floors. The latter makes the machines much quieter and acts as a wear plate, prolonging the life of the machine. With the addition of these smaller-rated conveyors, the Skandia curved H range is now
available in 60—200tph capacities with bends of 15, 30 and 45 degrees. They further increase the already extensive range of handling equipment available from Skandia Elevator. BDC Systems will also be highlighting the Svegma continuous-flow grain dryer, Soby pre-cleaners and a range of ventilation equipment.
Strip-till seeding versatility Developed by Claydon to meet increasing interest in fertiliser placement while drilling, the Hybrid T drill in 6m form will be working in the demonstration area at Cereals, while its new 8m big brother is being launched on the company’s stand. With a daily output of up to 70 hectares (175 acres), the 8m Hybrid T uses the patented Claydon direct strip-till seeding system to sow directly into stubble, in min-till situations or on ploughed/cultivated land. The seeding frame floats completely separately to the seed hopper, ensuring an even depth across the full working width.
The weight of the drilling chassis is carried on five centrally-mounted depth wheels on 10.0/75-15.3 cleated tyres, while the hopper is supported by four transport wheels with 380/55-17 cleated tyres. Weighing 7,400kg the new drill needs a 400—450hp tractor partner. It folds to 2.85m for transport, with hydraulically-operated transport locks fitted as standard. The 25 tungsten carbide seeding tines are in two banks 2.2m apart to give an inter-tine clearance of at least 550mm. Drilling depth is up to 150mm, while row spacing is 315—320mm. There’s a choice of rear toolbars,

while a front press option extends the drill’s capabilities. Like the 6m model, the 8m Hybrid T has a 5,500-litre hopper, split 60:40, although the separator plate is removable. Standard equipment includes: an Accord metering system; RDS Artemis electronics; four-channel
Canbus/Isobus head unit terminal; radar-controlled Vari Rate seeding; touch-button calibration; and hydraulically-driven fan unit. Four spool valves are needed to operate the various functions. Options include hydraulic stone release system, slug pellet applicator, rear press wheels and front tool bar.

Standing up to inspection Cross-compliance inspections may already have started in May, but the chances are that many farmers don’t have their paperwork in order yet. That’s the view of the Cross Compliance Solutions team which will be at Cereals, arranging free initial evaluations and showing visitors how to organise their paperwork to make sure they receive their full Single Farm Payment. Managing director Charles Mayson says: “The recent Rural Payments Agency confusion won’t change the basics. The rules and regs are still
there; you are still there; and the Basic Payment Scheme is still there. “When the dust has settled it will be much as before. So farmers shouldn’t imagine that freedom beckons. In fact we’re managing even more risk because of greening rules.” To make sure they’re in a good position when the inspector calls, Charles recommends three key actions: completing any NVZ loading; writing a nutrient management plan; and checking for soil erosion. He adds: “There’s a lot more to cross compliance than these three
points, but getting the basics wrong is the equivalent to ‘the dog ate my homework’ in the inspectors’ eyes and won’t wash at all.” NVZ loading should have been completed by 30 April for the previous year for those in an NVZ, he stresses. A nutrient management plan should be written before any nitrogenous material is spread in the spring, and every parcel on the claim form should be included. And, warns Charles, great care should be taken about the subject
of soil damage. “The Soil Protection Review book is history, but in its place is a more rigorous test, with measurements, so don’t fail it.” Charles points out that Cross Compliance Solutions’ fee for helping to get paperwork ready for inspection is much less than the cost of failing even part of an inspection. With fully-qualified staff, 30 years’ experience and hundreds of inspections under its belt, it’s the place to go for advice on NVZ rules, livestock movements and farm assurance, he adds. ■
Head-turning prices for stubble-turning machine Designed for high-speed, low-cost residue inversion or stale seedbed creation, the Proforge Inverta will be demonstrated at Cereals for the first time in the UK. Extensively proven over the past four years in Europe, it is being introduced to the UK by distributor Agri-Linc as a contender to the Carrier, Catros, Disc Rolla and X-press. It’s the newest addition to the
Proforge range of quality products, better known for its mole drainers. With “class-leading” 560mm discs, there are six models of the Inverta: 2.7m and 3.0m; and 4.0m, 4.5m, 5.0m and 6.0m folding. They all have the versatility of being mounted or trailed: the trailed models having the flexibility of quickly reverting to mounted. There are options of either rubber wedge or steel ring packers,
and hydraulic front-levelling board on trailed models. Prices start at £7,350 for the 3m Inverta, while the 6m trailed version is £18,450 – a fraction of the price of some similar machines, says Agri-Linc. The company is currently selecting other dealers across the UK to promote its growing range, with more machines joining its lineup imminently.

Double-quick clamp construction When one of the UK’s leading root vegetable producers decided to install an anaerobic digester on farm, the clamp was a vital purchase decision, especially given the tight timeframe. MH Poskitt prides itself on undertaking all washing, packing and distribution tasks from a single site at Kellington in the East Riding of Yorkshire. It produces, for instance, about 50,000t of carrots annually using growers throughout the UK to maintain a year-round supply. When the company decided to
install an AD/biogas plant to provide all power for its facility, a clamp capable of storing up to 5,500t of maize needed to be constructed within a 12-week timeframe to meet the plant’s projected start-up date. Retaining wall specialist Poundfield Products of Ipswich, Suffolk was the company chosen for the job. Guy Poskitt says: “We found several companies able to supply the necessary reinforced concrete panels, but Poundfield was the only one that also offered an installation and after-sales service.
Poundfield Products’ clamp installation at MH Poskitt’s site.
“Since we wanted to deal with just one company to complete the clamp on our behalf, it was an easy decision to choose Poundfield.” To construct the clamp, Poundfield used 55 of its 3m-high L-Blocs plus 56 of its 3m-high heavy-duty Alfablocs. In less than a week these components were used to create a two-bay clamp with the rear wall
of L-Blocs securely bolted to the concrete base. To maximise life of the clamp, all block surfaces received a special paint treatment to prevent corrosion from leachate. ■
Value cultivation machinery dished discs, aggressive angle and heavyweight disc packer. While simplicity is key, this is a quality, well-built machine from the Turkish brand, the company says.

Ilgi UK says that the Aragon fills this need, leading the pack with its high degree of mixing, thanks to its
A new name in cultivators Plowman Brothers of York, an established manufacturer of highquality livestock containers, is adding heavy cultivation tackle to its portfolio and will have its biggest stand yet at Cereals. It will be showcasing the awardwinning Omni-Til NG, which is currently available in 2.5m, 3.0m and 3.5m mounted and also 3.5m and 4.0m trailed and folding versions, with larger cultivators promised later this season. Trailed Omni-Tils are semi-
mounted on a ball and spoon coupling, giving the tractor benefit of draft assistance and reducing wear and fatigue on what would normally be a high-stress zone. Assisting trash flow and reducing surface burst, leading straight discs are positioned directly ahead of each leg. They have the ability to swivel, eliminating lateral disc load. The legs use high-quality NG fivepart tungsten carbide-tipped system as standard, extending working life and maintaining design geometry.
from 3–8m, trailed or mounted. Meanwhile the AMR rolls are a simple, low-cost set of rolls available from 6–9m. The 6m set with breaker rings sells for £5,950. Ilgi machines are sold in all the main markets around the world. Ilgi UK, based in Louth, Lincolnshire, challenges visitors to view its products, believing they’ll be pleasantly surprised at The Aragon offers high-speed cultivation their quality and value for money. with an excellent mix.
They are mounted in a low-draft V formation, aiding soil flow. Auto-reset hydraulic cylinders provide point impact protection and also allow legs to be retracted if required. Two rows of demountable concave scalloped discs work the upper soil zone to a depth of up to 75mm, while a shouldered packer firms and consolidates to leave a drillready weatherproof finish. The complete Omni-Til system creates “outstanding” soil structure by working surface tilth and at-depth
soil zones individually. Also available from Plowman Brothers is the mounted Omni-Lift NG. Arguably the lowest surface disturbance subsoiler of its type, it is made in three- and five-leg versions up to 3.5m wide in auto-reset or shear-bolt variants. A five-leg machine will be shown at Cereals, capable of working to a depth of 500mm. Options include seeder mounting for all machines to allow single-pass oilseed rape establishment. ■

Keep on the straight and narrow The latest developments from German electronics manufacturer MϋllerElektronik, including the Track-Guide III GPS parallel guidance system and the automatic steering system TrackLeader Auto, will be shown by David King Electronics, its UK distributor. Track-Guide III includes the Touch800 terminal that’s based on the same hardware as the 12in Touch1200 Isobus terminal using a capacitive touch screen protected beneath glass, making it ideal for rough use in agricultural engineering applications. The Touch800 has an 8in TFT colour display with a resolution of 800x600 pixels. The display is divided into main and header windows, similar to the displays shown in the Basic and Comfort-Terminal. The Track-Guide III is versatile and expandable using the concept of App & Go to unlock optional functions including the automatic steering system Track-Leader Auto. There are three versions of autosteer available. Track-Leader Auto Pro is the hydraulic version of the automatic
steering, while Track-Leader Auto Iso is the upgrade version for tractors and machines that are auto steer-ready and only need to be equipped with a steering computer. The last variant is Track-Leader Auto eSteer. This is an electric wheel motor that can be installed on any machine quickly and easily. With these products, MϋllerElektronik is able to offer to almost any type of machine a corresponding steering option with highly-accurate results and good value for money. The A101 GPS receiver, using EGNOS or WAAS correction signal, comes as standard with the TrackGuide III kit. The kit can, however,
be supplied with other types of receiver or RTK depending on the level of accuracy needed and budget available. Another feature of MϋllerElektronik’s Track-Guide III GPS guidance terminal is the ability to upgrade to a full Isobus-compatible terminal by purchasing the Isobus-UT app activation code. With this app activated, the terminal complies with the Isobus standard. This allows the Track-Guide III to be used both as a guidance terminal and as a universal display that can be used to control Isobuscompliant equipment, such as fertiliser spreaders, sprayers and

Lightweight steel boom When it comes to booms, heavy duty doesn’t have to be heavyweight. So says Sands Agricultural Machinery, which is exhibiting its latest design for booms more than 24m at Cereals. With the demand for wider booms increasingly year on year, the company has been looking to reduce the weight of its steel booms without compromising on overall strength and reliability. The result is a steel boom that is about 150kg lighter but can still give the benefits of the previous design – namely the abilities to accept DuoReact nozzle bodies for fitting
liquid fertiliser dribble bars and to give variable geometry at the 12m hinge. Being able to incline the boom at the second hinge, rather than the back-frame, allows the boom to follow the contours of the ground more accurately. In demonstrations, when fitted with the Norac GN1 auto boomlevelling system, on-target accuracy within 50mm was 92 per cent at 12kph from a 36m boom. This is an extremely important factor when applying contact herbicides to thinleaved grass weeds such as black-
grass when a low, consistent boom height is needed for maximum coverage and control. For liquid fertiliser, Hypro’s DuoReact 4 + 1 nozzle bodies allow the use of dribble bars without the need to remove them when spraying conventionally. They reduce the incidence of crop scorch and, since they are fitted to a single spray line, washing-out is both easier and more efficient. ■
Sands has developed a lighter-weight steel boom.
The appliance of science Visitors to Cereals will be the first to see the latest progress on a new in-field device that monitors pathogen spores to give advance warning of disease development in the crop, and hence a larger spray window. Fera will be showcasing the new project to develop a novel smart spore trap that promises to automate spore
sampling, pathogen detection, weather monitoring and data communication within the single device. Data will be transmitted to a central facility where models will be used to provide a risk forecast back to the user. A full prototype is to be trialled next year to gather information on spore loads of septoria tritici, brown
rust and yellow rust in wheat. Fera’s Judith Turner says: “It’s simple, but also very clever. Advances in in-field pathogen detection, automated sampling handling and communication technologies allow us to make this concept a reality. “In the future we should be able to pinpoint risks of disease far more quickly and accurately.”

Innovative tools for your business In its 40th year of trading, exhibitor Martin Lishman will have its many and various products on display in the post-harvest area and Sprays & Sprayers arena. Bourgault tillage and drilling tools feature the Speed-Loc quick-change system, which combines the speed of a knock-on point with the security of a bolt-on point. Used as standard fit on many UK and European tine cultivator machines, they’ve also been retrofitted to a variety of other machines, such as Horsch, Rabe, Vaderstad and Kongskilde. The simple-to-install FloorVent system vents hot air for optimum crop cooling in store. Fixed pedestal sections spaced across the store are linked by an under-floor vent to fans located outside the store wall. Introduced to the company’s range last year, Grain Gauge is designed to accurately monitor the level of grain in bins and silos. It needs no electricity and dispenses with the need for staff to physically climb the bin. The full range of crop qualitymonitoring equipment will also be on display, including the TuberLog electronic potato, as will the range of building ventilation systems including the StockVent system for
livestock buildings. There will be a demonstration of Barn Owl Wireless, specially commended in last year’s International Machinery Manufacturers Awards. This comprehensive and reliable system allows store managers to monitor crop temperatures and ambient conditions and manage ventilation remotely via a combination of radio signal, GSM data transmission and cloud computing. Also on display will be the Growing Solutions compost tea systems – as used by Real Madrid Football Club. The full range of compact spraying systems – including ATVmounted, tractor-mounted, trailed and demount versions with 70—600 litre tank sizes and 1—8m boom lengths – can also be viewed.

By introducing Tier 4-compliant engines to its 1800 series sprayers, Knight Farm Machinery can claim that all its self-propelled models are now benefitting from the cost savings this technology offers. In addition, all vehicles are fitted with Category Four cabs with CAT4 filtrations offered as an option. Knight has also used the opportunity presented by the introduction of the new engines to redesign the 1800 series to group all controls and valves together above a drip tray. The 1800 series – which features spray tanks from 3,500–4,000 litres and booms up to 36m wide – is also being offered with 6-cylinder engines of up to 200hp, which are single turbo or 225hp for the dual turbo. Sales manager David Main says: “This raises the torque available by anything from 5–10 per cent, and is predicted to cut fuel usage by about five per cent thanks to the higher burn
temperature.” To meet the new EU emissions directive, the new engines feature an exhaust recirculation and filtration system that eliminates noxious emissions completely. The company has also improved operator convenience as part of the redesign. David says: “We’ve collected the level indicators for systems such as engine oil, hydraulics and the relevant filters together on one side of the engine. “On the other side, we’ve redesigned the radiator so that it can be released by undoing two bolts and swung out of the way giving access to items such as the alternator and turbo compressor.” A further improvement is the introduction of longer, more flexible mudguards, which provide better protection to the boom from damage by stones, while also making the guards themselves less prone to accidental damage. ■
Fixed base station network extends to Lincs For the past five years, RTK Farming has offered repeatable accuracy at an affordable price, allowing farmers across the East Anglian region to access an RTK signal without costly base station installations and giving them the option to roam nearly two million hectares (five million acres) without leaving the network. Now RTK Farming is bringing its farmer-owned network to
Lincolnshire. After a huge amount of investment and work, the network will now be available to farmers from the M25 all the way to the River Humber. Working with farmers across both East Anglia and Lincolnshire has made RTK Farming a leading collaborative farming project and opens up the opportunity of reliable, repeatable, high-accuracy farming to all within this region.
The RTK Farming network.
By harvest-time, the RTK Farming network will cover nearly three million hectares (7.5 million acres), with almost 500 vehicles using the service, making it the largest fixed base station RTK network in the UK. With RTK Farming, reliable, affordable and repeatable accuracy is now available to more farms than ever, providing a major opportunity to simultaneously improve yields while reducing costs.

Subsoil and sow in single pass The first oilseed rape crops to be established using Mzuri’s Rehab Seeder got off to a flying start this spring, report the growers who used the machine last autumn. Mzuri’s Martin Lole says: “Many of them report that crops sown with the seeder came into flower a couple of weeks earlier than those sown using other methods.” The new seeder, which is being shown at Cereals for the first time, uses individual coulters to maintain sowing depth and seed placement comparable with a conventional drill. It is mounted behind the Rehab, Mzuri’s low-surface-disturbance subsoiler that performs a thorough restructuring of soil below the seedbed without pulling raw, unweathered soil to the surface or losing any of the valuable surface tilth. Adding the seeder to the Rehab achieves several valuable benefits, says Martin. “It allows users to maintain accurate seed rates and placement in the same pass as they are restructuring their soils. “The subsoiler’s leg sweeps
the straw and surface trash to either side of the seeding zone, so the seed is placed into fresh, moist soil, where it is immediately consolidated by the following press wheel, which achieves excellent seed-to-soil contact. “This ensures the seed has ideal conditions in which to germinate, so it can exploit the restructured zone below the seedbed to establish a healthy root structure, which enables it to fully access the soil’s moisture and nutrient reserves,” he says. “We believe one of the reasons the early users are seeing such fantastic crops is that they don’t need to do any more passes after the Rehab Seeder. “That means the restructuring work that’s so beneficial to the oilseed rape crop is not compromised in any way, and will benefit all subsequent crops.” ■

Plenty still new under the sun The future of solar energy is still bright, despite changes to legislation. That’s the message from the UK’s largest provider of solar energy – Lightsource Renewable Energy. Its experts will be on hand at Cereals to advise on how both groundmounted and rooftop solar panels can be integrated into existing farming systems. Business development director Conor McGuigan says: “There’s been a lot of speculation recently over the future of solar power and whether it’s still a worthwhile investment. “But landowners can rest assured that there are still plenty of opportunities available. The UK has made a legal commitment to reduce its carbon footprint and solar remains an important part of that mix.” However, he adds, decisions need to be made wisely, with special care taken to choose a developer that can be trusted, that has sound financial backing and a proven track
record of repeatedly delivering successful projects. Solar farms larger than 5MWp – which is about 10 hectares (25 acres) of land – are no longer eligible to receive money under the government’s Renewable Obligation Certificates. Instead, developers have to bid for funding through Contracts for Difference. The new competitive auction divides renewable energy technologies into two pools – established and less-established – with solar companies competing against their counterparts in the likes of offshore wind for the same budget. The results of the first bidding process were announced by the Department of Energy and Climate Change and, of the 27 projects approved, just five were solar farms. Lightsource was one of the successful bidders, winning funding for a 14MWp project at Charity Farm near Shrewsbury, Shropshire. Conor says: “Our recent success
shows that, if you choose the right partner, larger installations are still possible. Any landowners who missed out this time around shouldn’t abandon their plans. There’s still plenty of time before the next round of bidding in October. “We’d be happy to hear from anyone who might want to work together. Our economies of scale – given the size of our operation, the strength of our in-house team and the large number of solar farms we currently have – allow us to keep costs to a minimum, ensuring that we’re able to offer an extremely competitive, and ultimately successful, bid.” Lightsource is also offering rural businesses the chance to cut their electricity bills with a new rooftop solar tariff of just 5p per kilowatt-hour. It’s available for premises with a roof space greater than 400m2 and could bring “huge” savings, with every 100m2 generating a saving of at least £35,400 over 25 years when
compared to a current competitive commercial tariff of 10p, the company says. Unlike schemes from other providers, where businesses have to commit to buying a significant percentage of the electricity generated regardless of how much they actually need, the Lightsource tariff is offered with no purchase obligations. Businesses that enter into a solar power purchase agreement with Lightsource will have daytime electricity supplied to the premises from the solar installation for a standard term of 25 years. There is no disruption to the building’s electricity supply as the agreement works in harmony with the regular electricity supplier. Conor says: “There’s no installation cost. Panels can be installed over just a few days. Lightsource will design, build, operate and maintain the entire scheme, while also ensuring the rooftop is fully insured.” ■
Quest for a quality drain In the working demonstration area at Cereals, Agri-Linc will be showing its Proforge mole-drainers. These machines have some particular features that define them, such as a 660mm-diameter disc that moles through standing crops, grass or clover or chopped residues. Coupled with the high-clear exposed leg beyond the beam, this ensures that the machines are “un-blockable”. Traditional moles with legs within a beam can tend to lift or twist when any amount of residue builds around the leg, spoiling the quality or continuity of the drain.
Other features include: an under-beam wear plate; infinitelyadjustable pitch adjuster; reversible leg with shin; and shearbolt protection. The MultiMole Twin Leg is for tractors of at least 380hp. The position of the wheels in front of the beams allows for almost 3m of dyke bankoverhang of the beam – very useful for starting drains from the target dyke or pond. It also gives excellent stability on the road thanks to the track width. The MultiMole uses the same proven beam design with disc as
The “un-blockable” Proforge MonoMole.
the MonoMole machines, and can be used as a single-leg machine with a centre-position mounting bracket. Prices start at £5,450 for the mounted MonoMole.

When innovation takes root Winner of the International Manufacturers Machinery Award for cultivation kit at Cereals 2014, Cousins’ Surface cultivator is a product of the ongoing i-tillage programme with independent agronomy company Hutchinsons. Now well into a five-year plan on its test farm, Hutchinsons can show the cultivator’s pivotal role in its blackgrass control strategy when used post harvest and in the spring after beet lifting. It also helps with herbicide retention and efficiency. The Surface cultivator incorporates a new tine-and-roller design that stimulates weed germination for effective weed control with total
herbicide prior to sowing. The tines work at a consistent depth of 50mm with a precise level of control. The shallower working depth makes for very energy-efficient cultivations, encouraging grass and broad-leaved weed seed in the top layer of soil to germinate, leaving seeds at lower levels undisturbed. Field trials confirm that the machine can provide ideal seedbed conditions for a range of cultivator drills, replacing the role of a cultipress in plough-based systems, and can be used as a highly-effective roll after strip-tillage drills. A more established Cousins’ product, the V-Form has shown great
flexibility in adapting to farming’s everchanging needs, the manufacturer says. From the initial staggered subsoiler concept with robust level lift feet – long recognised as a fast and effective soil-loosening system – through the addition of oilseed rape seeders, the most recent introduction has been the Micro-Wing option. These shallow-working tines are followed by targeted seeding and razor ring leg zone press wheels which focus consolidation over the seeded areas within the cultivated leg zone, ensuring consistent seed depth and coverage with minimal moisture loss. The result is rapid and even crop

emergence, which allows for treatment with pre-emergence herbicide and optimises performance of residual black-grass herbicides. Both these models, plus Cousins’ latest rolls, will be shown at Cereals. ■
Bale handling attachment A new attachment for bale handling is being introduced by Albutt. Developed for use with telehandlers, loaders and wheeled loaders, it will handle a wide range of bales, wrapped silage or straw, square or round. Offering a flexible approach to bale handling, its heavy-duty design is said to offer long-term reliability. The design features two heavyduty gripper arms that move horizontally, controlled by hydraulic rams, gripping the bale securely. An adjustable pressure relief valve allows adjustment of clamp pressure, while a hydraulic lock valve locks the pressure in the ram, providing hoseburst protection. The gripper arms feature 75mm heavy-duty thick-wall tube for high strength, with smooth surfaces to protect any bale wrap in place. They open between 0.75–2.05m, allowing the handling of both rectangular and round bales. Rectangular bales can be gripped from the side or end, depending on bale length. An optional bolt-on back frame allows more than one bale to be carried. Handler lift capacity is 1,000kg. Albutt can supply this new attachment with brackets for all types of telehandlers, tractor loaders and wheeled loaders. ■

Track options for tractors and combines Case IH will be exhibiting a number of key new products at Cereals, including the new 380hp Magnum Rowtrac 380 CVX. This machine, based on the Magnum 380 CVX, combines the manoeuvrability, handling and versatility of a wheeled tractor with the ability of a tracked machine to float over the ground. Providing superior power delivery, it minimises soil disturbance, even when turning under full power, giving a much smoother ride. The Rowtrac maintains the Quadtrac principle of using four contact points to transmit power to the ground. Compared to a twintrack machine its design greatly reduces the pressure exerted on the
soil, the amount of weight transfer from front to rear and the amount of pitching movement, says Case IH. It also allows the use of differential locks to maximise traction in difficult conditions – not featured on twin-track machines. Power is supplied by an 8.7-litre FPT Cursor 9 engine which is rated at 380hp but produces up to 435hp and 1,806Nm of torque, with best-in-class engine oil change intervals of 600 hours. Case IH will be exhibiting one of its latest 240 series Axial-Flow combine harvesters on tracks. In addition to standard tracks that reduce ground pressure in soft field conditions, 240 series models also offer the option of fully-suspended
tracks. In 610 and 724mm widths, these feature four idlers that work in two pairs, allowing the tracks to adapt more accurately to ground contours, giving a smoother, more stable ride, both in the field and on the road. Aside from the larger ground contact area that reduces ground pressure and supports the larger 14,400-litre grain tank, the new fully-suspended tracks also improve stability, ensuring even the widest headers remain level under the most difficult field conditions. Key to the new Case IH Puma range is its power unit which achieves oil-change intervals of 600 hours. The top-of-the-range Puma 240 delivers up to 270hp with Power

Independent agronomy – now and in the future Using the backdrop of demonstration plots of winter wheat, barley and oats and spring wheat, oats and beans, representatives of the Association of Independent Crop Consultants (AICC) will be running ‘drop-in sessions’. The sessions, at 10am and 2pm each day, will show how they plan for the season and the independent decision-making process they adopt. AICC will be highlighting the difference that the advice of an independent crop consultant
provides, and why this adds value to farming businesses. The question will be posed: “Are growers best-served by allowing best practice and good science to be the driver for production rather than highest spend”. Chairman Patrick Stephenson (right) says: “Many of the decisions we’re going to be facing will be nothing
to do with pesticide applications, but rather the best use of cultural, rotational and cultivation choices for the whole farm. “The days are gone when ‘the answer’s in a can’ was the best advice for your business.” The Association will also be launching its bespoke academy – AICCA – for new entrants working alongside established members. The aim is to enhance the level of
expertise of new post-BASIS entrants to provide them with a sound technical platform in preparation for a career in independent agronomy. The Academy will take the form of various modules over the course of a season using industry experts. Members will be able to enrol their trainees, or those who are newly-qualified, who will go through the academy together – providing another network of support for their future career in the process. ■
A close shave for weeds Designed for automatic in-the-row weeding of transplanted crops, the Robovator is made by Danish company Vision Weeding and imported and distributed in the UK and Ireland by Edwards Farm Machinery. Each hoeing unit is individually controlled by its own camera placed above the hydraulically-operated
hoe blades which move in and out of the row between plants. The camera detects and records the position of each plant, while software calculates the correct timing of the hoe blades according to forward speed. An in-cab display allows the operator to control the various operating parameters, such as how

Green manures, no problem As an increasing number of farmers experiment with, or commit to, growing cover crops, SimTech Aitchison’s expertise is coming into its own. This exhibitor has plenty of experience of the practice, particularly as a result of its involvement in the French market, where cover crops have been much more widely grown for many years. SimTech Aitchison’s Simon Clarke says: “Our T-Sem drills are uniquely designed for both the drilling of cover crops and the subsequent drilling into the resulting green manure to establish the next cash crop. “Establishing any crop in high summer can be difficult. With soil
moisture normally at a premium, the need to retain any moisture present is essential. “Our disc/tine design means that we can place the seed into the soil, even in situations where there’s a large amount of surface trash, without the problem of hair-pinning that’s commonly experienced with disc-only drills. “The wide tine clearance means that even large amounts of trash flow through the drill unimpeded, while the powerful narrow coulter tip can penetrate very hard surfaces.” With the cover crop growing, the next issue is establishing the next cash crop either later in the autumn or, more commonly in the UK, in the
spring. Simon says: “Sowing into a cover crop, particularly in the spring, is not an exact science. Soils vary, as does the weather, and cover crops can prevent the soil from drying out as quickly as it would if it were bare ground. “However, it’s important to keep the organic matter on the surface, as ploughing it in would cancel out the benefit, particularly in subsequent years. “With its front disc cutting a path for each coulter, the T-Sem once again is well-placed to drill into the cover crop. “Patience may be required to choose the right time to drill but,
The T-Sem is capable of establishing cover crops and of drilling into them.
because the soil is protected and not over-worked, the moisture will be retained and germination will be rapid.” ■

As easy as ABC While ABC (Advanced Buildings & Civils) may be a new name to many, its national sales manager Michael Lees has been selling agricultural and steel-framed buildings for more than 30 years. Part of the A+ Group, its sister company Advanced Water & Waste provides systems for collection and storage of farmyard manure, slurry and waste water, while Advanced Power & Lighting specialises in retrofit LED lighting projects. Today ABC is focused on delivering modern agricultural and industrial buildings – either as a turnkey project package, or simply supply only – to include planning, design and construction. It also ensures buildings are CEmarked to meet current regulations
and manages all aspects of health and safety. With staff having worked for years with the likes of water companies and local authorities, which all rigorously demand properly-documented health and safety systems, the company uses these as building blocks for its agricultural projects, keeping things concise and simple. ABC has full insurance for public liability, employers’ liability, £2million contract works insurance and £2m professional design insurance. It doesn’t try to get away with providing the cheapest building it can. Rather it works with an open and fixed price policy. Michael is now joined by his son Richard who works for the A+ Group for its water and waste business.
An ABC project under construction.
ABC is backed by the Roche brothers, who have followed in their father’s footsteps as civil engineers, with years of experience of farm buildings, storage tanks, weeping walls, farm waste management and all aspects of drainage, from pipes to treatment.
In addition to offering a first-class job, delivered safely and on time with a smile, its philosophy is to do it right the first time. Michael Lees says: “You don’t want us back. And we don’t want the expense of coming back to fix problems.”
Cheap N a retrograde step Farmers who buy nitrogen purely on price, without considering how to fulfil their crops’ sulphur requirement are putting yield, quality and profitability at risk, advises GrowHow.
The company’s David Beck says: “Despite generally above-average yields in 2014, protein levels, grain prices and profitability were lower. “As a result, some growers were
sold ‘cheap’ nitrogen this season in the form of straight urea. “This could be a false economy.

A wide selection of machines Wessex International will be displaying a selection of machines for the farm, from mowers and a bale feeder to hedge-cutters and SweepEx brooms. Set-aside management to stubble chopping is all in a day’s work for the new Wessex range of heavy-duty batwing mowers. The brief was to design a high-output rotary mower with a blade-tip speed and upturn on the blades to allow a superior cut at fast forward speeds. The five models from 4.8–8.0m cover the ground fast so that users get the most for their money from a range that suits tractors from 100hp
upwards. Durability, versatility and low maintenance are words used to describe the Hustler CH-2000. It’s a chainless bale feeder that handles round or square ones, even long square ones, since its extension bar allows feeding of up to 2.4m (8ft) bales. It’s easy to use, with adjustable feed rates and simple operation. Wessex International has also launched a new range of tractormounted hedge-cutters for agricultural and public highway use. They range from 0.80–1.25m cutting widths and 20—70hp power requirements.
Steering a precision course This year sees SoilEssentials celebrate 15 years at the forefront of precision farming, providing innovative products and services. And it continues to merge technology with good farming practice to provide practical solutions, all with agricultural efficiency in mind. Most of the 20-plus staff members are based at the company’s head office at the foot of the Angus Glens in Scotland, supported by an area sales manager in the Borders and a regional sales office in York. SoilEssentials is the Trimble designated authorised reseller for northern UK and it blends the Trimble product line with its own complementary portfolio of products and services. With three key divisions – agronomy, machine control and software development – the company offers wide-ranging products and services that it continually adapts to meet changes and opportunities in the industry, alongside a dedicated sales and technical support team. Appreciating the positive impact of personal contact, SoilEssentials participates in a number of shows and events through the year, valuing them as opportunities to talk with existing customers, new clients, partners and industry specialists. Not only will it have a stand at Cereals, but it will also be at The Royal Highland Show the following week, where the company was first launched in 2000. ■
The flagship models, the T500G and TPE600, have a reach of 4.85m and 5.96m respectively with a 1.2m working width head. Both feature the option of cable controls or the EP-Tronic proportional control joystick for accurate manoeuvrability. The Wessex SF Series flail mowers are designed for those who need a robust flail for general pasture management, and contractors looking to maintain areas of grassland or roadside verges, for instance. SweepEx brooms are great sweepers for forklifts, telehandlers, tractors and skid-steers, holding

Sprayers to suit all Househam Sprayers will have its usual comprehensive range of trailed and self-propelled sprayers on show at Cereals to suit all kinds of farms and cropping and, of course, contractors. Trailed sprayers come in the form of the budget Eco Tec (2,000 and 3,000 litres) and the AR range (3,000—4,000 litres) with various optional boom widths. On the self-propelled front, three models are represented – the Merlin, Spirit and AR. Most of these models are available with high-clearance

The AR range is as popular as ever, and is available in 3,000-, 3,500- and 4,000-litre variants. Househam is also well-known for its used machines: there will be an example on display. ■
Shedding new light on agronomy A first-time exhibitor, Intelligent Precision Farming (IPF) states that it’s the UK’s only independent precision farming service provider. It works with more than 500 farming customers, covering more than 130,000 hectares (325,000 acres). Using its precision farming management software – the IPF Toolbox – users can monitor their crop growth using satellites that measure light reflecting from the canopy in different wavebands. The difference between the bands gives
an indication of crop health, vigour and biomass. This information is typically used to create variable nitrogen plans, but feedback from growers and agronomists is that it’s also a very useful crop health checker and can be used to identify areas of weeds, disease and pest damage. IPF now plans to develop its seeCrop app that will allow satellite imagery to be viewed and agronomic observations to be recoded while out in the field. These observations will synchronise
with the Toolbox back in the office, meaning that both the grower and agronomist can map where different pressures are happening. The seeCrop app won the UK leg of the European Satellite Navigation Competition in 2014. Now, with funding from the European Space Agency, the app is being developed and will be released next year. To mark its debut attendance, IPF will have some exclusive, eventonly offers, including
Bidding for value machinery Increasing numbers of farmers are turning to auctions to find low-houred, good-quality farm machinery that won’t burn a hole in their pockets. That’s according to auctioneer Cheffins, which holds the world’s largest monthly machinery sale near Ely in Cambridgeshire. It’s seen a growing number of farmer
buyers in 2015. Partner Bill Pepper says: “Twelve months ago it was dealers who were leading the way, but low commodity prices and the rising cost of new machinery have led to a shift in momentum. We would expect trade to stay reasonably buoyant. “AEA figures reveal that sales of
brand-new tractors and combines in early 2015 were 18 per cent down on the equivalent period last year. “Meanwhile, John Deere also announced that its first quarter earnings showed a sharp drop in net income. “UK machinery sales have also been affected by the strength of

the pound, which has seen dealers struggle to shift second-hand kit. It means that many have been more reluctant to take trade-ins as part of any new tractor sale.” A team from Cheffins will be at this year’s Cereals event, offering advice or information to anyone thinking of either selling or buying machinery at auction.

Bred for success New cereal, rape and root varieties a-plenty on the KWS stand.
Leading plant breeder KWS will be using its stand to focus on optimising on-farm margins for current market conditions. Top billing goes to its new wheats, KWS Lili and KWS Trinity, which combine high yields with added-value market opportunities to help generate better returns in a ‘bear’ cereals market.
Given its better all-round disease profile, KWS Trinity is being pitched as an agronomically safer to grow Group 1 variety. Its high Hagberg will help in difficult, wet summers. Hard wheat variety KWS Lili has “great” grain quality to fit all, lower-protein markets at home and abroad. With a yield only two per cent off the pace of the highest-
yielding feed wheat, it will also find favour as an easy-to-grow barn-filler. The company will also be featuring three new oilseed rape varieties alongside its current market-leading conventional Charger. At 107 and 106 per cent respectively, conventional Pico and Campus offer yields on a par with the top double-low hybrids. Barbados, also conventional, is setting the pace for this year’s candidate varieties. Not only does it represent another step up in terms of gross output, it has a rating of 7 for light leaf spot and 8 for phoma resistance – the best combination available.
As for barleys, at 105 per cent of controls, KWS Infinity and Daxor top their respective 2-row and conventional 6-row sectors for yield and were the only two new barleys to be recommended for this season’s sowings. In the sugar beet sector, KWS has three new very-high-yielding varieties – Sabatina KWS, Salamanca KWS and Tasmania KWS – all of which look set to challenge the likes of Hornet and Springbok. Alongside these are two new Beet Cyst Nematode-resistant types, Leesha KWS and Tabatha KWS, both yielding better than the mean of controls. PCN-resistant potato varieties Eurostar and red-skinned Camel will also be demonstrated. ■
A viable alternative to ploughing Help to protect soils from wind and water erosion is on hand in the shape of Bednar’s Terraland chisel plough, imported from central Europe by Knight Farm Machinery. The machine, which can work up to 65cm deep, is said to offer a viable alternative to ploughing, and is proving popular with those looking to restructure damaged soils – such as those growing a substantial area of root crops. Knight sales manager David Main says that, in early field trials in the UK, the machine’s rear toothed roller left a well-consolidated and levelled surface pitted with a very clear pattern of small divots. Rain or irrigation water is captured there rather than running off across the surface, and has time to percolate into the soil, he explains.
BATWING MOWERS
“These divots also cause the wind to eddy, which lifts the main airstream off the ground – reducing the speed of the surface wind and its ability to lift and carry particles,” he adds. The Terraland is made from high-strength Alform steel, which offers great durability and strength and allows it to work in the harshest conditions. Yet the 3m machine needs only 180—200hp to work. The profile of the operating legs has three different operating angles. The first helps penetration, the second is designed to break deep-set compaction, and the third completes a thorough soil and trash mixing operation before the rear roller consolidates the soil profile. The legs are set in two rows with a 40cm gap between them. Hydraulically protected, they trip

out of work and reset themselves to avoid stones and buried obstacles without disrupting or delaying work. While Bednar offers a range of options on all the machine’s elements, for the UK the standard equipment will include 80mm chisel points – although 40mm and carbide/hard-faced versions of both sizes are available.
HEDGE CUTTERS
The UK spec also includes Bednar’s hydraulically-adjustable double spiky roller, providing “excellent” consolidation and particularly adept at working in stony conditions, plus the company’s side shields, which minimise sideways spread of soil and contribute to the ability to leave a well-levelled finish.

Low horsepower requirement Dale Drills has been busy. Not only is it further developing its product range to include the new Eco-T, but it’s also improving its customer backup by adding a new product support vehicle and service engineer. The Eco-T is designed for smaller farms. Available in sizes from 3–6m, it uses the company’s Eco-Drill assemblies mounted on a trailed frame in a three-row stagger. Land wheels mounted between the first and second row allow for
trash flow, while supporting the 2.2t-capacity hopper. Its narrow drilling knives contribute to a very low horsepower requirement, allowing a 4.8m machine to be pulled with just 150hp. Director James Dale says: “The fact that the Eco-T can be pulled with a relatively small tractor has huge advantages, not just reducing soil compaction but also reducing costs such as depreciation and fuel use.”
Dale Drills will be showing the Eco-T, Eco-Drill and mounted Eco at Cereals. Also on its stand will be new member of staff, service engineer Tom Maplethorpe. He joins the company from Williams Formula One team where he worked on Felipe Massa’s car. Having spent years visiting exotic locations, he returns to his native Lincolnshire, where his role will include design and development, as well as servicing and maintaining customers’ drills. ■

Rubber track innovation Sly Agri’s multi-use track system.
Lincolnshire-based Sly Agri has drawn on its extensive knowledge of rubber track undercarriage components and design to develop an intelligent multi-use track system to meet demands for reduced soil compaction in controlled traffic farming. It also meets OEM’s needs for
an efficient traction system for supersized kit such as grain carts, muck spreaders, slurry tankers, sprayers and cultivation/seeder bars. The main features of the innovative design include: 762mmor 900mm-wide track for extra flotation; hydraulic suspension for contour-following and system articulation over obstacles; and hydraulically-tensioned front axle assembly. Hydraulic service points are easily accessible for control of track
Another top quality wheat Following the success of Skyfall from breeder RAGT, the company could have another top quality wheat to hit the market, it says. The new candidate variety, RGT Illustrious, has already created a great deal of interest in the end market because of its baking consistency at a range of different protein contents. According to RAGT’s senior wheat breeder Célia Bequain, the variety has shown consistent top bread making potential since harvest 2010 when the
line was first baked by its independent partners. From then on, and despite some very challenging growing seasons, RGT Illustrious has always compared favourably to the control Solstice for both its baking and quality attributes, she says. The variety is a candidate for the 2016/17 RL with a yield challenging Skyfall. Its maturity is similar to Solstice, it has excellent disease resistance profile, as well as the Pch1 eyespot resistance gene, adds the firm.
tension and suspension hardness. Clear Enduracaps are fitted on all rollers for quick oil level checks and ease of service. Rear brake hubs can be equipped with either air or hydraulic actuators to meet EU braking regulations. All rollers are rubbercoated for extra compliance and ride comfort. Suspension comprises front/rear idler plus two axis roller pivot. Low-profile track in a speciallyformulated rubber compound ensures low rolling resistance and provides a contact surface area of
“The Recommended list trial confirms that RGT Illustrious has very similar quality attributes to Solstice but we have to keep in mind that those data are from trials managed for yield. In our RAGT quality trial network, RGT Illustrious shines with a HFN above 300 sec. even in the 2012 harvest, a protein content which ranges from low 12 per cent to high 13 per cent and a specific weight above 80kg/hl,” comments Célia. The company will also be talking
2.53m2 per track. The company’s George Sly reports that field trials are currently underway, with designers working on a power-assist system with intelligent load control and steering functionality. He says: “Through initial research we’ve found that users could pull 40,000kg with about half the tractor size by using power assist. “With modern-day tractors costing up to £250,000, the power assist option is gaining interest – aside from the reduction in soil damage and compaction.”
about its spring malting barley variety RGT Planet which looks set to become Europe’s biggest spring barley variety according to the breeder. In addition to being the highest yielding variety on the UK Recommended List, it achieves the same accolade in Germany, Denmark and France. In Austria, Poland and the Czech Republic, RGT Planet is also the highest yielding candidate in the country equivalent of the RL’s NL1 and NL2 trials.

Chance to share management concerns After the success of the FieldCast farm business census at Lamma, Cereals visitors will also have the opportunity to take part. Anonymity is assured and there’s the chance to win a free case of quality wine. Organised by agricultural management consultants Wilson Wraight, FieldCast involves farmers recording their primary and
secondary farm management concerns from a menu of predetermined issues. According to founding partner Roger Wraight (left), FieldCast is an opportunity for farmers to see how others are thinking, and to air their own views. He says: “We’re always in close liaison with our clients on the issues that impact on their businesses. FieldCast is just another way of keeping abreast of the challenges
that farmers face.” But, despite its light-hearted nature, FieldCast has a serious side, he adds. “Few business sectors are as demanding as agriculture. “Farmers have to thrive in a volatile global market and adhere to the highest levels of processor and environmental scrutiny. Today’s farmer has to be food producer, analyst and countryside guardian. “The results of FieldCast might help them recognise particular threats that they also need to manage.”
Given the challenging business environment he describes, Roger notes that farmers could visit the company’s stand to discuss the importance of accurate benchmarking of farm business performance. As part of Wilson Wraight’s service, it provides a highly-comprehensive annual farm report to clients. “For them, it’s an invaluable tool to track key performance indicators and to highlight where improved efficiencies can be made,” Roger says.

To mark its appointment as a main distributor for Kongskilde, Plot Feeds is offering reduced prices and free delivery on all Kongskilde equipment and spares. Since its inception in the late 1990s, Plot Feeds has always prided itself on being an independent supplier of new and used grain and seed equipment. This has allowed it to supply customers with the most appropriate solutions to postharvest handling requirements. Time and again it turns to the same, best-value suppliers, such as Oliver, RNT augers, Polycool Pedestals, Aeromeh CAD separators, and Petkus and Westrup cleaners. And, throughout its time, Kongskilde has been its top-choice supplier for heavy-duty handling equipment. Now, following policy changes at Kongskilde’s Danish headquarters, Plot Feeds has been appointed a main distributor. It will be supplying the
company’s grain cleaners, chain elevators and belt-and-bucket elevators from 20–120tph, as well as its world-renowned pneumatic handling system. What has always attracted Plot Feeds to the Kongskilde brand are its chain conveyors, which use a cast-steel chain with a 10mm HDPE base, making them one of the longest-lasting, quietest-running handling systems on the market
Plot Feeds’ Robin Mumby rates Kongskilde grain handling equipment highly.

Intelligent system optimises grain drying The IDC optimises the drying process by using intelligent software that adapts to conditions.
Allmet is helping its customers to reduce drying costs and increase drying capacity thanks to the launch of the Intelligent Dryer Control (IDC) System, says the company. This latest technical advance
brought to the UK market is the result of Allmet’s alliance with Tornum AB, a strategic business partnership formed at the end of last year that has seen the two companies share expertise and resources to focus on product research and development. The IDC, is long-awaited in the grain market and will benefit customers by minimising over drying, maximising obtainable product quality, weight and prices and providing total
Weights and measures Griffith Elder’s development team has had a busy year, developing new products to offer customers of existing equipment and those who have bespoke requirements for its product applications. One bespoke indicator that has been added to its range is the new Driver Terminal used in multiple weighbridge port transfer stations, allowing one operator to control four weighbridges. Users of the company’s Portable
Weigh Beams will be pleased to note that it now offers a large display with built-in traffic light. This optional item can be retro-fitted for those who want an external visual display of weights. The 4m-long Weigh Beams have been extended to 4.2m so that larger tractors and tri-axle trailers can be weighed easier. Bluetooth connectivity has featured as an alternative reporting option on Griffith Elder’s Animal
process control, says Allmet. Allmet director, Charles White explains: “Drying grain precisely is a complex process that you want to get right to maximise the best possible price. When you use manual methods you run the risk of not reaching the desired moisture content levels, or over drying. The IDC takes the guess work out of this by maintaining the average outgoing moisture content of the grain, despite large variations in incoming moisture content.” To illustrate the benefits of the IDC – overstepping the mark by drying to
Weigh Systems, Platform Scales, Crane Scales and Flexibeams. This new option works on android phone and tablet systems where flexibility and cost savings are required. For larger-scale cereal growers and contractors, the company offers a yet further updated weighbridge software package that works with the new Infratec Nova grain analysers and Dymo 450 label printers for stored samples. These updates are provided for Agricultural
13 instead of 14 per cent can typically add up to 20 per cent to an energy bill, give you an additional 1 per cent loss in weight and reduce a dryer’s capacity by up to 16 per cent, he suggests. Fellow Allmet director, James White adds: “The IDC optimises the drying process by using intelligent software that adapts to conditions. There’s no need for manual adjustments, you have total control over the drying process and can change the grain type and drying recipe where ever you are, at the touch a button, either from a PC or a tablet.” ■

Lessons from horticulture The practical role for integrated pest management (IPM) will be a hot topic on the Certis stand this year. The firm’s experience of IPM within the horticultural sector has never been more relevant, as it branches further into the arable sector. Arable crops product manager Inez Cornell says: “The UK government is required to show that UK growers are using IPM as part of the Sustainable Use Directive. “This, combined with the increasing pressures placed on the industry from the loss of several active ingredients, and the predicted loss of another 40 in the coming years, is a very real threat to arable farming. “However, the horticultural sector has been exposed to limited pest, disease and weed control solutions for a long time and has overcome such challenges by adopting an integrated approach, which the arable sector can learn from.” Not only will Certis’ BASISqualified team be showcasing the company’s expanding arable portfolio, therefore, it will also
be providing practical advice on an integrated approach to crop protection. Inez says: “The integration of crop protection tools and the role of sound agronomic knowledge to develop timely and targeted pest, weed and disease control programmes – while minimising environmental impact – is becoming increasingly important. “We’re continually developing and introducing products that offer sustainable, long-term solutions for crop protection so we’re better placed to support growers under increasing pressures.” ■

Machines made to measure
The Gϋttler front press.
Wox Agri Services will be showing the complete range of Gϋttler products at Cereals, and hopes to be able to demonstrate how the Gϋttler product can be adapted to suit each individual specific requirement depending on machinery and soil type. For instance, the company recently supplied a Gϋttler 8m front press unit complete with tines to a Shropshire grower. The customer was looking for an 8m-wide unit weighing less than 3t, which Wox Agri Services was able to achieve thanks to the lightweight synthetic ultra material unique to Gϋttler. The material has exactly the
same ring profile as the special cast iron material and is just as hardwearing. The company’s replacement roller range can be supplied to any width to be adapted to almost any machine, either as a complete unit with frame and scrapers, or as rings set on the shaft ready to replace any existing roller. The particular Gϋttler profile of the ring working in the machine will reduce fuel costs, increase forward speeds and always create the perfect seedbed for improved germination, says Wox Agri Services.

Sprayer spec selection
A new high-specification 4,400-litre capacity trailed sprayer from John Deere will be making its UK show debut at Cereals. The R944i model on display, together with its new M series midspecification equivalent, the M944(i), mean that the company now offers a wider range of specifications and configurations than ever before in a machine of this size, with a choice of manual, semi-automatic of fullyautomated sprayers. The latest models offer the same basic features as the larger M & R series sprayers up to 6,200 litres, but with a smaller tank size. Both
new versions will have the same low-profile tank design and low centre of gravity for maximum stability under all spraying conditions, while the established axle steering system provides accurate tracking on the headlands to reduce wheeling damage. Powerful, high-capacity twin-piston pumps supply liquid at 560 litres/min for fast automatic filling and spraying. Alternatively, an optional centrifugal pump boosts filling capacity to 700 litres/min. A wide choice of durable steel spray booms is available, doublefolding from 24 to 30m, and triple-folding from 24 to 40m. These feature a central pendulum for boom levelling, anti-yaw suspension system, vertical and horizontal boom breakaway protection and durable pivot points. Optional features for more accurate and efficient spraying include the BoomTrac automatic boom height-control system, pressure recirculation and AutoDilute.
The SolutionCommand automatic solution management system with AutoDilute lets the operator accurately fill, agitate, spray and multicycle rinse the sprayer, disposing of residues at the push of a button on the tractor’s GreenStar display. The standard GreenStar 2630 display supports a full range of automatic guidance, documentation, Isobus implement control and performance-monitoring features. This and the multi-function joystick are the only two operator controls in the cab.
The R944i and M944(i) also offer a wider range of tyre options than ever before on trailed sprayers of this capacity, to reduce ground pressure and, thus, compaction and soil damage. In addition, larger tyres offer less rolling resistance, reducing the power required to pull the sprayer, especially in difficult ground conditions. The full range of R900 and M900 series sprayers replace the previous 800 series trailed models, which will cease production later this year. ■
Coulter design lends adaptability
The GD zero-till drill with new patented double-disc coulters.
Cereals sees the launch of a zero-till drill from Weaving Machinery, which brings together more than 20 years’ experience of producing zero-tillage equipment. The GD (Gent Disc) drill brings a “refreshing look” to the tried-andtested Big Disc drill, and is named after Lincolnshire grower Tony Gent who worked in conjunction with the company to develop the new patented GD coulter. The new coulter is said to satisfy all drilling systems, providing “remarkably low” soil disturbance, has a very low draught requirement of 40hp per metre and has an excellent service life. The principle behind the GD coulter design is a double-disc arrangement, mounted at a 25 degree angle to the vertical, which is able to pivot around a central kingpin mounted within the coulter body. The larger leading outer disc cuts an opening slice in the soil, while the smaller inner disc effectively undermines the upper side, forming an opening for the seed to be placed precisely. The lifted wall of soil is quickly
firmed down onto the seed by the single press wheel, which also acts as a depth regulator for the disc coulters. Drilling depth is adjusted by moving a single pin through a bank of holes with a depth range of 1—130mm in 15mm increments. Coulters are individually pressurised by a hydraulic system, providing up to 200kg of downwards pressure, helping to maintain consistent contact with the ground, following contours and undulations. The refined design, aided by an inter-row clearance of 1,000mm, results in a coulter that’s able to work in extremely trashy conditions and cover crops without creating an opportunity for hair-pinning to arise. The adaptable system can be used on all cultivation systems and soil types. The new GD coulter will be available on either mounted or trailed drills. Mounted zero-till machines are a new addition to Weaving Machinery’s portfolio and will be available in widths from 3.0 –4.8m with a 1.2t seed tank from £24,642. Trailed variants are offered in working widths from 4–8m, mounted on an existing Weaving 2.5t seed cart, and costing from £42,700. All drills are fitted as standard with: RDS electronic metering; six coulters per metre at a minimum row spacing of 167mm (adjustable); roll-over cover; tank sieve; and work lights.

Precision for productivity Cambridgeshire-based LH Agro, approved specialist for Topcon Precision Agriculture’s systems, will be showing a number of its new product offerings at Cereals. The X25 8in-display colour touchscreen console uses drag-and-drop menus and configurable mini-views. Its dashboard, and ISO-compatibility result in “a very competitive solution”. Working modes include Topcon ASC-10-based section control (up to 32 sections), spinner/spreader control, sprayer control, straight rate and variable-rate product control and compatibility with Norac boomlevelling via Isobus. Vehicle Display Controller (VDC) is offered as an optional device to work with the entire Topcon X family of consoles. The VDC is designed to put selected display or console functions within easy reach of the operator. It can be installed on most agricultural vehicle command or control panels, providing five ‘hot keys’ for navigation of the Topcon console. CropSpec is a real-time integrated crop-monitoring and
application system compatible with either Topcon’s X25 or X30 consoles, allowing users to monitor in-field variability, treat on the go or keep data for future analysis or prescription application. CropSpec is a two-sensor configuration that’s light and easy to install. The sensors mount on the cab roof, out of harm’s way with less potential for damage to crops or equipment. It uses pulsing laser diodes to measure plant reflectance to determine chlorophyll content, which is closely related to nitrogen in the leaf. This information can be used to construct a variable-rate prescription application to be used immediately or at a later date. Finally the Magnet Mobile Ag Network is software designed to streamline farm data management, operating via Topcon’s Magnet Enterprise, a web browser-based environment that simplifies managing field and office data. Magnet Enterprise allows file transfer through cloud computing, offering office-to-field connectivity.
Magnet Mobile Ag Network can be bought through a subscription plan that carries a 12-month commitment. The CropSpec cab roofmounted sensors measure plant reflectance.
Italian machines muscle in If award-winning Italian manufacturer Alpego has a unique selling proposition, it’s the strength of its machines. It uses SSAB, a high-grade Swedish steel, for its range of rotary cultivators, disc and tine cultivators, subsoilers, fixed and folding power harrows, drills and flail toppers. This is the same material used in the manufacture of cranes, thanks to its high strength and low weight, and its use is closely regulated by the Swedes. Technicians from SSAB regularly visit Alpego’s factories near Venice to check the quality of the machines produced
there before allowing the use of its sticker as authentication – testament, says Alpego, to the brand and its level of quality control. The company is also immensely proud of its heritage. It started in 1949, and the old ‘homestead’ still stands in front of the factory, and there are plans to renovate it into a museum paying homage to the founding Pegoraro family. Based at Wrangle in Lincolnshire, Alpego UK represents the brand in the UK and will be exhibiting a range of the manufacturer’s machines at Cereals.

Solid subsoiler and champion chaser bin on show Quivogne UK is using the Cereals event as an opportunity not only to showcase a sample of its bestsellers, but also to launch two new machines – one from Quivogne and one from Perard. The new Quivogne machine is the SubEvo and has been developed on the back of the success of its SCD subsoiler range. It’s a mounted hydraulic verticalfolding subsoiler in 4– 6m working widths, featuring low-disturbance subsoiling tines in a staggered formation with adjustable spacings. It has a hydraulically-operated 3-point linkage, allowing other implements, such as drills and speed-discing units to be mounted behind. And, because of the integrated central PTO transfer unit, power harrows and other pto-driven implements can also be used. The rear linkage can easily be adapted to allow trailed machines to be towed instead of mounted ones if required. Also new, but from Perard – one of Quivogne UK’s other franchises – is the all-new Interbenne chaser bin.
This features a 700mm-diameter unloading auger, yet maintains its unloading auger characteristics, such as being able to unload with the auger in any position and from a height of 1.9 to 4.9m with a reach of 4.5m from the side of the machine. With the configuration of the internal augers and the increase in auger diameter, it can unload its 46m3 tank in less than two minutes. The chaser bin also has hydraulically-operated internal regulation slides allowing the speed and flow of crop being unloaded to be monitored and regulated. The machine on display is, says Quivogne UK, arguably the largest – and fastest unloading – production chaser bin in Europe. It’s a TTR46 46m3-capacity machine, fitted with triple axles, active frontand rear-steering on 750/60 R30.5 Michelin CargoXBib tyres. In addition to these machines, there will be working samples from Quivogne UK’s LED lighting division and its cultivators will be working on its demonstration plot. ■

Pumping test reports sorted The issue of groundwater abstraction licensing is firmly under the spotlight, especially in the wake of the recent high-profile case where the Environment Agency was minded to refuse two water abstraction licence applications in the Catfield and Sutton Fens in the Norfolk Broads. While most sites aren’t in such ecologically sensitive locations, the abstraction licence application needs to demonstrate its potential impact. That’s what TW Page & Son, water engineers for more than 80 years to farms across Norfolk and Suffolk, is at
pains to point out. The importance of accurately assessing potential impact of abstractions for its customers is “paramount”, it says. Boreholes that abstract more than 20m3 per day require a licence. New boreholes going through the licensing process are test-pumped and nearby wells and boreholes monitored. A few years ago the raw data was sent to the Environment Agency. Now the number-crunching must be done before it’s submitted to the Agency, in the form of a pumping

test report. The report must analyse the data using appropriate formulae and interpret those results in relation to local geology, groundwater supplies, water bodies and water-reliant habitats within a specified radius. Thanks to a recent addition to its team, T W Page & Son is pleased to announce that it can now prepare pumping test reports in-house and is also able to carry out any habitat surveys that may be required by the Environment Agency as part of this process. It also offers this as a stand-alone service to other water engineers. ■
An option is to use the soil moisture deficit probe facility which calculates the moisture in the soil and how much water to apply. Reports on water used by hose-reel, field and crop are easily produced. The company is also becoming an importer for WindControl. This is

It also allows the gun angle to be adjusted manually to account for irrigation under power lines, for instance.

Water Source & Irrigation
Long lasting benefit to soil structure One of the most cost effective jobs any farmer can do is to check the condition of the drainage on the land being cropped, says Hankins Engineering. The next step is to physically find and check the condition of the outfalls. If they are below the level of the ditch bottom, remedial work must take place to get the water flowing again. Redundant drainage systems can be revitalised by a programme of rotational moling and, on good strong clay soils, moling will help on sloping, undrained land, providing it is possible to mole into ditches or preferably a gravelled headland drain.
Persistent weed problems such as black-grass can be better managed if the soil structure is in good condition, continues the company, which makes a wide range of robust long-lasting mole drainers that have the benefit of full beams without the worry of blocking. Shallower cultivations which on one hand help to control such weeds, do not benefit the soil structure and therefore the need to mole drain on a regular basis is essential and will help to give a long-lasting benefit, it says. Once the land has been rejuvenated, moling needs to be carried out every four to six years to keep
the structure of the soil in good condition, adds Hankins. Many mole drainers that are seen working have the point pitched downwards to keep the mole level in the ground. This is incorrect, points out the company, and will not produce a good mole. Maidwell Molers have the strength, weight and their unique pitch adjuster to keep the mole parallel with the ground to produce the ideal mole. The Maidwell Moler also has a unique screw-adjusting, doubleended leg incorporating a shear-bolt device, acting as a safety mechanism. Machines built over thirty years ago when Hankins Engineering began are

still in use today and are covering a large acreage. The new, wider twin-leg Maidwell Molers allow more acres to be covered in the critical and evershortening post-harvest window, says the firm. ■
Pumps to be proud of Jones Engineering is proud of its tradition, providing irrigation pumps with “excellent” reliability using JCB engines and Caprari pumps. Its most popular models include the Acoustic version, that comes as standard with anti-theft devices
such as removable drawbar and lockable fuel filler cap. Another popular option is the telephone control that allows the operator to remote start and stop the pump unit, set the pressure and monitor the fuel level, for instance. All Jones Engineering’s pumps
and hose-reels are made at its base near Doncaster and can be tailored to suit individual applications, alongside its range of heavy-duty British-made irrigators. The company boasts it can take the irritation out of irrigation. Theft-proof pumps from Jones.
Firm invests in stock and equipment Philip Millington Water Services is reporting another busy year spent installing underground irrigation mains and carrying out land drainage projects. During the past year it has become a dealer for Briggs Irrigation and has now sold many of its machines with excellent customer feedback. As part of its commitment it has now invested in stocking spares at its stores at Catfield, Norfolk – from gun nozzles and turbine mechanical seals to a complete turbine, gearbox or boom section.
The company currently has new hose-reels up to 600m, plus booms and pumps in stock for this season’s delivery. Richard Millington says that he’s happy to take any potential customer to the Briggs factory in Corby for “a demonstration and a cup of tea”! The company is also now a Wright Rain stockist and holds thousands of pounds-worth of aluminium fittings. It can make up lay-flat hoses and deliver to site if required.
Richard advises growers to start their systems early on ahead of the season to find out whether any faults have developed over the winter, and to fill their systems gently, removing air from end hydrants to help prevent burst mains. The firm’s land-drainage business has also seen an increase in demand. In response it has added a new Mastenbroek gravel cart to its two older machines. Its 20t and two 8t excavators have been busy ditching, and –
with increased demand for drain jetting – it has also bought a new 400m drain jetter that “hasn’t stopped working since”. ■

Working wonders with water A trade-marked product is providing an effective biocide without any of the usual adverse effects. XzioX is a British-manufactured water treatment system that can be used in all areas of agriculture. Its main objective is to give an acceptable kill rate on bacteria including pythium, E. coli, listeria and salmonella. It will also: remove algae; remove and prevent biofilm; control odour; remove blockages in nozzles and drinkers; and reduce campylobacter. As a result it can improve livestock growth rates and feed conversion, and even reduce mortality rates. It is non-corrosive, doesn’t alter the pH of the water and is Drinking Water Inspectorate-approved. The system automatically doses XzioX at precise dilutions to ensure safe and consistent delivery at all times. It
remains stable for a minimum of 30 days without a performance loss. Service and maintenance is carried out by a team of trained and qualified engineers based nationwide at no extra charge. XzioX is currently being used in vegetable and fruit washing, shelf-life extension, crop irrigation, legionella control, odour control, and poultry farming and processing, for example.
XzioX looks after your water systems.
Grants to save water Growers who can demonstrate that capital improvements would reduce water use by five per cent – without having a negative impact on the crop – are now entitled to new grants of 40 per cent on projects valued at up to £1 million. That’s the message from Briggs Irrigation, which points out that the Countryside Productivity Scheme applies to both individual growers and to abstraction groups. New equipment designed to monitor soil moisture, measure water usage and improve distribution is eligible, provided it will achieve an overall improvement in irrigation efficiency. Water savings made by the investment must be split between the applicant’s business and the environment. Only half the saving can therefore be used to increase the area of crops under irrigation. Account must also be taken of the impact on the Water Framework Directive environmental objectives. Briggs Irrigation’s Adrian Colwill says: “A number of growers have contacted us about the new grant scheme and we’ll be pleased to

help supply relevant information to support the application process. “Our irrigation booms are designed to improve efficiency and make best use of water, while offering the flexibility required by many businesses. “Independent studies in the UK and the US have highlighted the benefits in uniformity of using a boom rather than a rain-gun, meaning that less water needs to be applied. “Other improvements can also be made to improve overall system efficiency and we’re always happy to discuss the particular requirements of each installation.” ■

Henry Brown’s Vintage Diary June 6–7 Farmers Guide in June 1990 included a preview on the twoday Sprays & Sprayers event to be held in Cambridgeshire later that month. In its thirteenth year Sprays & Sprayers, organised by Ciba Geigy, demonstrated the latest crop spraying techniques and included a range of chemical trial plots. The 4wd drive Frazier Agri-buggy, the Lely Hi-trac with a 1,000-litre tank and the Chavtrac Spra-Coupe were among the latest self-propelled machines at the show. Imported from the USA the SpraCoupe, looking like a small aeroplane with a 69hp Volkswagen diesel engine and a 12m spray bar, was one of the more unusual machines at the demonstration. Other entries at Sprays & Sprayers included the trailed Ferrag Degania air-assisted sleeve boom sprayer and the Hardi Twin dual action air-assisted trailed sprayer with the option of a steered axle. Farmers Guide’s preview on the Royal Norfolk Show, to be held at the
end of June, noted that entries in the livestock classes included 17 individual cattle breeds together with increased numbers in the sheep, pig and goat classes. The total prize money for the livestock classes was in excess of £48,000. GT Bunning & Sons planned to exhibit an 8t manure spreader as well as its existing 10 and 12t models at the Show. Stalham Engineering introduced two new trailed Stoll sugar beet harvesters from Germany and RS Bennett & Co planned to have a range of MB-tracs on its stand. John Hodge recalled earlier days of the Agricultural Training Board when farmers were required to pay a levy towards the cost of its running. The Ministry of Agriculture got round its protests of the anti-levy lobby by lopping money off the price review. By 1990 a new era of the ATB, with big staff redundancies, saw the formation of local Area Training Boards with reduced budgets and a remit to guide the provision of local farm training.

With the straw burning ban set to become law in 1992, Farmers Guide included a feature on straw incorporation. Burning straw was already banned in Denmark for the 1990 harvest and the feature included some of the straw incorporating implements available to Danish farmers. They included the Bomford Dyna-Drive ground
driven rotary cultivator, an Overum Tive tine and disc combination cultivator and the Lemken Terradisc. Parmiter launched some new heavy disc harrows for straw disposal – the largest 14ft Utah disc harrow for 200hp plus tractors had a £12,042 price tag. Parmiter also announced a new range of direct drills to cope with post-harvest trashy conditions.
