Out and About with the FG team The wind of change or just a load of hot air? It’s your call Ahead of this month’s General Election, we asked the major political parties to explain briefly what they could do for British agriculture over the next five years if they got into power. The following responded. Liberal Democrats Having been the Liberal Democrat minister in Defra, I can say that the Coalition Government has made progress in securing a better future for rural Britain and a focus on supporting farmers to produce the food that we need more efficiently and sustainably. However, there is a lot more to do. The Conservative affinity for big business over small enterprises and aversion to intervene in unfair markets is often frustrating, but together we have introduced a raft of measures to help farmers in policy areas neglected by previous governments. We have established the Groceries Code Adjudicator, a Liberal Democrat initiative aimed at building a fairer relationship between farmer, processor and supermarket. Where others had hesitated, my Liberal Democrat predecessor in Defra, David Heath led in designing and implementing the Bovine TB strategy, facing up to the biggest threat to our beef and dairy sectors. In the last Budget we announced plans to allow farmers to profit average over five years instead of two, protecting small farmers against the worst of fluctuating crop yields. During my time as flooding minister I have seen the devastation that can be visited on farms and rural communities by floods, especially during the exceptional weather of 2013/14. I am proud of the record amounts of money that we have put into flood defences, protecting increasing numbers of homes and businesses. The environment is at the heart of the Liberal Democrat’s offer to farmers and is firmly on the front page of our manifesto. We will help farmers compete internationally by continuing efforts to reduce the regulatory burden in agriculture as well as developing an Animal Disease Strategy.

We will ensure that farming support is concentrated on sustainable food production, conservation, tackling climate change, and work to restore habitats for bees and other pollinators. Dan Rogerson MP

UK Independence Party (UKIP) UKIP’s Agriculture Policy can be split into three principle areas: trade, support and de-regulation. Having invoked article 50 of the Lisbon Treaty, UKIP will concentrate on establishing a good trade deal with the EU. As their biggest single customer, and running a £50 billion (min) trade deficit with them, we are in a very strong position to insist that if they want free access to our market for cars and wine, we want free access to theirs for agricultural produce. The UK supported its agriculture up until the day we joined the CAP. UKIP will continue to support agriculture through a simplified version of the Single Farm Payment. We will pay £80 per acre on lowland with pro-rata reductions, as applied at present, to poorer land grades, plus headage payments on hill land within WTO rules. There will be no set-aside, cropping interference, greening measures or Cross-Compliance beyond insisting that land is farmed to the ELS rules, as applied in 2013. Organic land will receive a 25 per cent premium and the overall payment will be capped at £120,000 per claimant. There will be the usual ‘negative list’ features, including 25m around the base of wind turbines. A field-by-field ‘active farmer’ declaration will be required. UKIP will:• Remove compulsory sheep EID, IPPC rules on livestock units, and allow burial of fallen stock (subject to water course safety) • Review scientifically the justification for NVZ criteria and the rules concerning white asbestos cement • Properly enforce existing rules on religious slaughter and imported bushmeat • Retake control of food labelling, legislating after an industry-wide consultation and review the remit of the Competition Commission to extend to fair play in the food chain • Cull badgers, if justified

•

Ban the live export of animals for slaughter Stuart Agnew MEP

Scottish National Party (SNP) The SNP is committed to act in the best interests of Scottish agriculture and to ensuring food production remains at the heart of government policy. The SNP is also determined to continue providing Scottish agriculture with a strong voice on issues ranging from CAP negotiations to the convergence uplift. Scotland is represented by Westminster ministers in Europe, however their priorities are not Scotland’s priorities. Despite Scotland calling for an uplift in our rural development budgets, the Westminster Government has negotiated the lowest average Pillar 2 payments per hectare in Europe for Scotland 2014–2020. The Westminster Government’s decision not to allocate the €223 million convergence uplift to Scotland – despite cross-party support in the Scottish Parliament for this to happen – is indefensible. Despite the poor budget deal negotiated by the UK Government and the constraints of EU rules, the SNP Scottish Government has delivered a balanced package laying the foundation for a sustainable long-term future for Scottish agriculture. The implementation of the new CAP by the Scottish Government represents the most radical redistribution of CAP payments ever. New entrants, who have previously been excluded from receiving direct farm payments, will get the regional average from day one of the new CAP. The CAP will be greener, with farmers being rewarded with Pillar 1 top-up payments for taking action to protect biodiversity and reduce emissions, and confirmation that rural development funding for agri-environment and climate change schemes will increase by more than £10 million per year as proposed in our consultation. The SNP is committed to a system of land rights that promotes fairness and social justice, environmental sustainability and economic prosperity. Land reform will ensure tenant farmers are able to enter the industry, and a strong system of property rights will be central to a strong economy and sustainable development. ■

Grain & Fertiliser Gossip

by Graham Henderson – graham@henders.biz

What an extraordinary spell of summer weather southern England experienced in mid-April. Just at the end of school Easter holidays it has been like August. Unfortunately above the Wash it has been a lot duller and colder. Here in Suffolk the north easterly winds are now beginning to bite but luckily the sun is still shining. It has become very noticeable that we really need rain with dust blowing off fields in some local areas. This naturally leads to the subject of irrigation demand and water conservation. Moves are slowly coming together, particularly here in Suffolk, to conserve the fresh water that is currently wastefully being pumped to sea under the control of the Internal Drainage Boards. There is as much fresh water in the river Deben catchment area being pumped out to sea as is used for local farm irrigation. The plan is to store surplus water in a large reservoir for use by local farmers or by Anglian Water. The investment will be high for a large new reservoir but the benefits long term will be massive as our summer weather changes with global warming and the demand for irrigation, industrial and domestic water increases. We are getting there at last but legislation in this country does not move very quickly. By the time you receive this we shall be very close to putting a cross on election papers for national and local government. In rural areas there are fewer seats under the duress of smaller party politics but the whole situation is so stricken with strife and conflict that it is difficult to see the trees let alone the wood! I am a boring believer that local elections should be exempt from party politics and we should vote for those who can produce the goods for the local area. When it comes to national politics I believe that the UK has currently lost its way. Whatever party or parties will form a government they will no doubt be guided by civil servants with their own ideas. The crunch question will be whether to come out of Europe and on what terms. I envy none of you in the decision making process of where to put your cross!

Grain Gossip The grain market is about as exciting as party politics at the moment! Feed wheat is down a couple of pounds from a month ago on the back of currency values, rain in the USA grain belt and Russia, together with high projected end of season stock levels. All major grainproducing countries are predicting positive harvest yields. At the moment (mid-April) we are around £112/t ex-farm for feed wheat in East Anglia. The northern premiums are down to around £5/t mainly because ethanol plants are out of production. Those farmers who have reluctantly held on to stock waiting for a lift that has not come will have to take a May/June hit of around £115/t ex-farm to clear their storage before harvest.

However their one savior may be an election result that devalues sterling thus creating better prices. This could happen but I don’t think it likely. November feed is today priced at £120/t ex-farm. The ever-threatening El Niño is on a 70 per cent possibility that could result in Australian drought and change everything. Time will tell. As always at this time of year predictions for the future are difficult. One thing for sure is that wheat is selling below the cost of production.

Fertiliser Fragments Internationally, demand has returned with both India and Egypt into the market. India is looking for 1.5mt of urea and Egypt for 150,000t plus 50,000t of ammonium nitrate. The Indian demand is normal for the season but Egypt has entered the market due to lack of gas availability in its own country. This has firmed the market but not increased prices by much. In the UK weakness on price has continued and those suppliers who still have imported ammonium nitrate and urea in stock are finding it hard to move. There is so little AN being sold that GrowHow is currently giving a guarantee for delivery within a couple of weeks. At this time of year we are starting to look at new early season predictions on price. However, as with grain, this will depend on currency values leading up to, and following, the General Election and this is too early to predict.

Rugby Ramblings The weekend’s rugby has set up an all-French European Champions Cup final on 2nd May. Clermont Auvergne beat Saracens in a match that was very even for most of the game. However, the wonderful chip ahead by Brock James for a Wesley Fofana try was one of those

special moments in rugby. Saracens played well and it was a very even game but the French just had the edge. In the second match both Leinster and Toulon were as canny as ever and the game went into exciting extra time after a real battle of the kickers at 12 points all. However a wonderfully taken interception try by Bryan Habana put Toulon ahead and, despite scoring a try, Leinster was unable to make up the difference. The final score was Toulon 25, Leinster 20. Thus there will be an all-French final and it could be that Toulon wins the competition for the third successive year. And yet another year without an England team making it. ■

Arable

Field f cus Disease control in wheat and oilseed rape are occupying much of our agronomists’ thoughts this month. Dominic Kilburn writes. Nottinghamshire It’s a been a kind spring, said Nottinghamshirebased AICC and Arable Alliance agronomist Andrew Wells and, despite it being relatively dry, spring crops are away and looking good, he noted. Sugar beet has generally emerged well, with only a small number of crops having suffered wind damage, and which will require re-drilling. The first post-emergence herbicides are getting underway now, commented Andrew, speaking in mid-April. “There’s a lot of spring barley and spring wheat in the ground this season and, for those, it’s a case of maintaining effective disease control without spending too much money. We’ve had decent yields in the past couple of years with spring cereals but a dry year, for example, could result in lower yields.” He said that there had been some weevil damage to spring beans, which should be addressed by the time this magazine has landed, while post-em herbicide applications of bentazone, for volunteer OSR and cleavers, will start at the end of April and early May. T0 fungicide sprays on wheat were all but completed in mid-April and T1s set to begin on the most forward wheats during the last week in April following on into early May. Septoria is present as usual, said Andrew, but

the cooler and drier weather had kept disease pressure to a minimum. “I can find small amounts of yellow rust in later drilled crops which are a little stressed but the T0 sprays applied earlier have kept it under control. “That said, there’s a bit more eyespot in crops than I expected and we will deal with it at T1 by including Tracker (boscalid + epoxiconazole) in the fungicide mix. “Looking beyond T1 and further ahead to T2, it all depends on the rainfall and temperatures we get in May as these will determine how robust the T2 fungicide spray will be,” pointed out Andrew. “The key thing is to do a good job at T1 to stay in control and not leave yourself exposed ahead of T2,” he added. Autumn residual herbicides did well on grass and broad-leaved weeds and, looking around crops, there is less black-grass in wheat than at the same stage last year, he continued. More delayed drilling and better stacking of herbicides are two reasons for good control of black-grass – albeit at a greater cost – although one or two growers who drilled their wheat too early are still having problems with the weed. According to Andrew, most oilseed rape had been treated with a light leaf spot fungicide in April – typically tebuconazole – the rate adjusted to give PGR activity where needed. “We’ve managed canopy size with nitrogen timings and rates and, looking forward

to May, it’ll be all about sclerotinia and more light leaf spot control.” Timings for sclerotinia sprays are based on a five-day rolling temperature average – when this exceeds 110C we need to ensure fungicide protection is in place, he explained. “Furthermore, when the rolling average temperature rises above 13–140C, and there is some moisture, then this creates the ideal scenario for sclerotinia development and crop infection. “In recent years levels of sclerotinia have increased significantly when temperatures rose drastically,” he added. Andrew said that prothioconazole plus either a strobilurin, or tebuconazole, will be applied to OSR crops throughout May for disease protection. Other jobs for the early part of this month include T2 applications on winter barley based on products with broad-spectrum activity, he concluded.

North Yorkshire AICC and Yorkshire Arable Advice agronomist, Andrew Fisher said that frequent night frosts, cool winds and dry conditions (especially in the east of the region) meant that crops were a little slow to get going this spring. Also speaking in mid-April, he pointed out that a lot of second dose fertiliser applied to wheat is still sitting on top because of the dry conditions, which has also resulted in minimal amounts of disease entering the crops. T0 fungicides were finished in the middle of April, 10 days later than usual, and decisions for T1 were being considered ready for applications beginning at the end of April/start of May. “Septoria has been in crops all winter but a lot of the infected leaves are now dying off and with little

rain the pressure has eased,” Andrew highlighted. All his wheats had Cherokee (chlorothalonil + cyproconazole + propiconazole) at T0 –a cost-effective spray, he noted, with the important inclusion of chlorothalonil. “We will build on that at T1 with some growers wanting the inclusion of an SDHI at that stage, and others watching overall costs. If they opt for a SDHI at T1 then it’ll be one of the epoxiconazole + isopyrazam products such as Keystone, plus chlorothalonil, and using one of the other SDHIs for T2.” Andrew said that oilseed rape was just starting to flower in midApril with pollen beetle having appeared over the Easter weekend, although not in high numbers, before disappearing to the bottom of the crop because of cold, windy conditions, he reported. “I’m not planning a spray for pollen beetle except for on a handful of backward crops if thresholds are met,” he added. Light leaf spot appeared on crops in April that hadn’t had a fungicide top-up since November and this was addressed at stem extension or first bud. “Hopefully the use of PGR Caryx (mepiquat chloride + metconazole) on forward crops will give them protection against sclerotinia through the early part of flowering. We are trying to keep a lid on input costs for oilseed rape at the moment with ex-farm prices so low, and so I’m only doing what’s absolutely necessary,” he explained. Turning to spring crops; Andrew said that there was a small increase in the spring bean acreage to satisfy greening issues. The crop went in well and he is planning a bruchid beetle spray, tank mixed with fungicides, at early pod-set. “It’s crucial that quality is maintained if it’s to satisfy the export market,” he added.

Don’t let early blight get out of sight With blight coming into some potato crops last season ahead of Smith Period warnings, talk of updated forecasting systems will be welcome news for growers and agronomists alike. Dominic Kilburn gets an update on blight forecasting developments as well as strategies in the field for managing early blight. A specialist potato adviser believes that the long-established Smith Period blight warning system for assisting growers and agronomists in planning their potato crop protection campaigns is becoming outdated as new strains of blight develop. According to SPUD Agronomy’s John Sarup (right) , it’s already known that the now dominant Pink 6 and Blue 13 potato blight strains in the UK develop in crops at lower temperatures than Smith Period calculations account for, and he welcomes on-going research looking into a more precise system of forecasting. “A system that encompasses wider temperature parameters would give growers a much better idea of when the disease is likely to enter a crop as well as enabling them to tailor the different blight products available to the scale of the threat,” he comments, adding that it’s a lot more costly to deal with blight once it is in the crop rather than protect against it in the first place. “One of the biggest issues is how the climate varies from field-to-field,” continues Mr Sarup. “Some fields are surrounded by trees, for example, others will be irrigated during the season, and these kind of variable conditions will all have a part to play in the climate of individual fields and the level of blight likely to be present. “And with Smith Period forecasts based on postcodes, blight pressure can be very different within that area,” he adds. The AHDB Potato Council’s head of communications and knowledge transfer, Dr Philip Burgess (right) agrees, to a certain extent, that the Smith Period has become outdated because of the changes in blight pathogen now faced by UK crops, and changes in agriculture as a whole, since the system was first developed in the 1950s. He says that the Potato Council is actively working towards developing a new blight forecasting system while

highlighting that the Smith Period continues to have a very important role to play. “It still offers a very resilient forecast whereby if you have inoculum in your area when a Smith Period is declared, then you will certainly get blight in your crops unless preventative action has been taken. “It’s a very good predictor and it will tell you when there is a problem,” he adds. He says, however, that there are occasions when there will be ‘near misses’ in terms of a Smith Period, and blight infection gets into the crop without warning, and so a good balance is needed between what works well now for forecasting, and what can be developed for the future. Dr Burgess points out that the Potato Council’s successful Fight Against Blight’ (FAB) service continues in conjunction with the Blightwatch map alerts sent to subscribers when Smith Periods occur and blight risks are identified in their area. “We’ve learned more about the different types of blight strains UK growers have had to deal with over the past few years through our national network of Blight Scouts, who provide intelligence they’ve gathered to Fera and The James Hutton Institute for further analysis. “The James Hutton Institute has taken the work further forward to determine growth characteristics of blight strains; the latent period of spores and temperature and humidity factors, for example, and researchers are building a much more detailed picture of changing blight populations. “Sophisticated modelling work to help understand how epidemics evolve and spread are being developed and we should be able to use this information to better forecast when blight is likely to be a threat in the future,” Dr Burgess concludes.

New criteria According to crop protection company Syngenta, its popular BlightCast fiveday blight forecasting service, updated

hourly on the company’s website and delivered direct to growers by email, will now feature a ‘New Criteria’ forecast, alongside a traditional Smith Period forecast. The ‘New Criteria’ pinpoints forecast temperature to hit over 8°C and more than 11 hours at 90 per cent humidity over two consecutive days to trigger a Blight Period, or a ‘Near Miss’ where conditions occur for a shorter period. Syngenta potato manager, Andrew Curtis, highlighted that leading independent blight researchers are currently assessing these new cooler parameters as the conditions where they believe today’s blight strains may already be active. “While it is still subject to evaluation and further research, we wanted to make growers easily and quickly aware of these conditions, when hitherto risk was considered low but, in fact, blight may be infecting crops,” he said. “It will enable them to time sprays more effectively and make better informed decisions on appropriate fungicide choice to prevent infection.” The existing recognised Smith Period five-day forecast remains the primary information on the BlightCast website, with the secondary ‘New Criteria’ forecast and a five-day spray application window forecast – all based on the grower’s local postcode. “Using these tools in combination, growers can now assess the potential risk facing their crops and alter product choice of spray scheduling accordingly to ensure effective protection is in place,” advised Mr Curtis.

Blight strategy Any products used very early last year did well in controlling blight, however each season is different and lessons can be learned, continues John Sarup. “Conditions were ideally suited for blight at the start of last season. It had been a mild winter, there were plenty of volunteers while warm, humid weather coincided with rapid crop growth,” he points out. “The blight came in early which caught people out, and then they went in with the wrong products – protective rather than curative – and, by the time the curative products went on, blight was already on plant stems and very difficult to control,” he explains. “Generally speaking disease was then managed for the remainder of the season, but it wasn’t got rid of and plenty of rain in August washed the spores off the stems and onto the tubers causing more cases of tuber blight than usual,” he says. Although it’s been a similarly mild

winter for this season, spring weather has been a little cooler than last year, points out Mr Sarup, who stresses that his main concern at this time of the season is the management of potato dumps which are a major cause of spreading blight. “As well as low value discards, dumps can include those that are left on one side for stock feed and so aren’t necessarily the main priority of a stockman, and, put simply, it’s critical that they are used before growth occurs – it’s fundamental for preventing the spread of blight. “It is also worth remembering that FYM from stock-fed potatoes can transfer diseases and viruses such as powdery scab and mop-top virus (PMTV),” adds Mr Sarup. He emphasises that growers need to set out on a prophylactic, 7-day interval spray programme for effective control of blight this season. Blight fungicide products should be used according to the conditions and pressure at the time, but it’s the frequency of those applications that is key to whether a successful strategy is achieved, he advises. “Get started with 7-day spray intervals and then, if there is less blight pressure, tailor the products accordingly,” he says, adding that it’s about understanding which products are available and what we are trying to do with them. First applications are usually at the rosette stage of the crop, he points out, highlighting that protection at that very early stage will buy growers time for when crops begin to grow away very quickly. He recommends starting with a fluazinam-based product such as Shirlan because of its activity on the soil. “You will be spraying as much as 50 per cent of the application on the soil at that stage of the season and so it may as well be a product that is able to give protection to the tubers. “This time last year with the high pressure it would have needed a straight cymoxanil in the mix such as Option or C50 for strong curative activity,” he adds. Available for the first time this spring is a new product from Syngenta for early blight programmes called Carial Flex (cymoxanil + mandipropamid) and this, suggests Mr Sarup, could be applied as the second application of the programme offering both preventative and curative activity. The advice from Syngenta is that Carial Flex should be applied before blight enters the crop however applications one day after

Arable Aggressive blight – a genetic ‘time bomb’?

p John Sarup recommends starting the blight spraying programme with a fluazinam-based product such as Shirlan because of its activity on the soil. u It’s a lot more costly to deal with blight once it is in the crop rather than protect against it in the first place.

an infection event has occurred have shown to give good levels of control. If things are growing slowly then Mr Sarup suggests that Shirlan + cymoxanil or Tanos (cymoxanil + famoxadone) will also provide preventative and curative activity, adding that the latter is often tank mixed with herbicide Titus (rimsulfuron) when applied to late-emerging cleavers, couch and volunteer OSR. “If I really want to hot things up

I’d use Curzate, or a similar product, containing cymoxanil + mancozeb. This gives superior control of blight and the use of multi-site fungicide mancozeb helps with an antiresistance strategy. “Others to consider early in the programme include Invader (dimethomorph + mancozeb) and Hubble (dimethomorph + fluazinam) which, when pressure was high early last season, worked very well,” he concludes. ■

Adama senior technical support manager, Dr Albert Pineda, (right) warns growers against lowering their guard against aggressive strains of potato blight. “Strain aggressiveness is determined by strain genotypes,” explains Dr Pineda, “and so is genetically fixed and poses a potential risk that, unlike disease pressure, remains the same and is independent of the weather. With the dominant strains in the UK – Blue 13 and Pink 6 – being so highly aggressive growers can never relax.” Aggressive strains have a shorter life cycle, sporulating faster, producing more spores – ones that can germinate in temperatures as low as 6°C, he says. In trials to calculate an Aggressiveness Index, Blue 13 was almost 10 times more aggressive than a conventional potato blight at an Index Rating of 540, with Pink 6 10 times more aggressive again at 4,625. “If you have these strains on your field,” advises Dr Pineda, “and every grower in the UK does, you have to be continually alert. In the right conditions, they can very quickly devastate your crop and so protection is essential.” A fungicide such as Hubble (dimethomorph + fluazinam) combining two modes of action is one of the most effective ways to control such a challenge, he believes. “While fluazinam, a contact fungicide, remains on the leaf surface, dimethomorph is mobile within the plant layers where it kills spores. Together, these two modes of action – a sporicide plus an anti-sporulant – offer a superior level of control which, as trials by Dr Huub Schepers show (see Table 1), exceeds Table 1 that of both the leading sporicide and the leading anti-sporulant acting individually.”

Nematicide granted emergency approval for PCN control Granular nematicide NEMguard DE has been granted an emergency authorisation to allow applications to be made on potato crops at planting for the control of potato cyst and free-living nematodes. Responding to industry concerns over product shortages, buying co-operative Anglia Farmers, in conjunction with Certis and Ecospray, applied for an emergency approval for NEMguard DE that is already registered for use in carrots and parsnips, and CRD has granted a 120day emergency approval for its use on potatoes. “PCN is the number one pest

for potato growers, and has huge economic impact for the industry,” explains Anglia Farmers head of procurement agricultural inputs, Peter McDonald. “The emergency authorisation comes at a time when potatoes are already being planted,” he added. “Some growers will already have experience with the product, however it’s important to note the application advice for use of NEMguard DE in potatoes is at a different dose rate to other root crops.” As a naturally derived product with patented production

technology, NEMguard DE (garlic extract) has no maximum residue levels (MRL), and only carries a 7-day harvest interval. “This makes it an ideal fit for short term, and speciality potato crops,” says Mr McDonald. This 120-day emergency authorisation is for NEMguard DE to be applied to potato crops by granular application machinery at planting. The maximum dose rate is 60kg/ha with a single infurrow application (not broadcast). Current trials suggest that the highest levels of efficacy have been

seen on free-draining (sandy or mineral loam) soils. “This emergency approval provides an opportunity for growers to use an alternative method for PCN control this season,” says Certis’ marketing and business development manager, Robert Lidstone (left). “It will enable them to gain confidence with the product, while a full label extension is applied for,” he adds. The 120-day emergency authorisation will expire on the 11th August 2015. ■

Scientists ﬁnd new defence against late potato blight Scientists from The Sainsbury Laboratory in Norwich and Wageningen University in the Netherlands claim to have identified a late blight resistance gene from a South American wild relative of cultivated potatoes. According to the scientists, the gene targets elicitin, a conserved protein with an important biological function, making it less likely that the

pathogen will evolve and evade resistance. Wageningen University’s breeding research expert, Vivianne Vleeshouwers said that the gene offers a totally new line of defence in wild relatives of the potato and it is hoped that it will help growers to tackle late blight (phytophthora infestans). The international team of

scientists searched the germplasm of wild members of the solanum family (which includes potatoes) looking for genes that responded to elicitins, so called ‘conserved’ proteins from the blight pathogen. “These proteins hardly change in time because their composition has been optimised during earlier evolution making it less likely that the pathogen will evolve to

overcome resistance,” commented Dr Vleeshouwers. Transfer of the ELR (elicitin resistance) gene into cultivated potatoes made them more resistant to several strains of blight, opening new strategies for breeding a broad and durable resistance in potato varieties, increasing food security and reducing the use of fungicides, she added.

AGRONOMY UPDATE

Getting the most from pre-em potato herbicides Weed control and early blight management are at the top of potato growers’ to-do lists, says Agrovista agronomist Craig Green. Given the very limited postemergence herbicide armoury, getting the best from pre-emergence applications in potatoes is vital to maintain a clean crop. It’s not just about choosing the right products – it means applying them correctly, too, Craig Green (above) advises. “Most growers will know what suits their soils, weed spectrum and varieties best,” he points out. “There is a decent range of products available, some of which can be mixed and matched to suit.” A good all-round recommendation that can be used on most varieties on medium soils is Sencorex Flow (metribuzin) at 0.5-litres/ha plus Afalon (linuron) at 1.1-litres/ha. Craig often adds 1.5 litres of diquat to burn down establishing weeds. “This mix will take out most problem weeds and has good persistence. On very light soils and sands I’ll replace Sencorex with Defy (prosulfocarb) at 4-litres/ha.” This season a new active from Belchim, metobromuron, is available as Praxim. Its key advantage, says Craig, is excellent safety in all soils, including very light soils and sands. It

also has no buffer restrictions. “We see it replacing linuron. I’ll be recommending it at 2-litres/ha on soils with body and add Artist, which contains metribuzin and flufenacet, at 1.5-litres/ha to boost control of weeds like black bindweed, cleavers and field pansy. On very light soils I’ll up the Praxim to 3-litres/ha and use Sencorex Flow at 0.25-litres/ha to deliver a lower dose of metribuzin.” Artist (flufenacet + metribuzin) also has activity against black-grass, helping to maintain pressure on the weed throughout the rotation, says Craig. He will add Remix, a paraffinic oil that reduces spray drift, to all his preemergence recommendations. “You only need a slight breeze growing across the baulks to create a spray shadow on the sheltered side, which reduces the protective barrier. Using Remix ensures even distribution of chemical across the baulks. Many of our growers are convinced of the benefits,” says Craig. Anyone missing the preemergence herbicide slot can use Shark (carfentrazone-ethyl) plus diquat as a fall-back at peri-

Nitrogen boost for maize Maize drilling is well underway and pre-em herbicides will soon be applied. Growers, especially those on light soils, should consider spraying N-Lock, a nitrogen stabiliser from Dow AgroSciences, just before final seedbed cultivation so it can be worked into the soil, says Craig. Applied at 2.5-litres/ha it can be tank-mixed with glyphosate, he adds. “N-Lock slows down the conversion of ammonium into nitrite, reducing losses and ensuring more nutrient is available later when the plants really need it but when spreaders can no longer travel due to crop height.” The average yield response in trials is 6.6t/ha, he notes. “You only need 1t/ha to pay for it, so it really is worth trying.” emergence, at 0.25- and 2-litres/ha respectively. This is contact-only so will increase reliance on subsequent post-emergence treatments, he points out. These are limited to Basagran (bentazone) for very small weeds, or Titus (rimsulfuron) at 50g/ha (except on potatoes grown for seed). Blight protection will begin with Ranman Top (cyazofamid) at 0.5-litres/ ha at the rosette stage. “This gives excellent control of foliar blight and also early zoospore activity in the soil,” he notes. “If there’s any risk that blight is already present, add Option (cymoxanil) at 0.15kg/ha and reduce the Ranman dose to 0.375-litres/ha.” From then on it’s a question of ringing the changes to reduce selection for resistance, using a sequence of Consento (fenamidone + propamocarb), Zampro (ametoctradin

+ dimethomorph) and Ranman during rapid canopy development and introducing Shirlan (fluazinam) as necessary as growth tails off. “Aim to keep spray intervals tight to avoid problems if bad weather delays spraying, and add Option any time where kickback is needed,” says Craig. “If you think you’ve travelled through a blighted patch, disinfect the sprayer before moving onto the next field. “First time out with the sprayer be sure to note awkward areas around telegraph poles or tight corners, where the sprayer can’t reach, and burn these off. They only act as reservoirs for infection, as will volunteers in other crops – these will need controlling too.” *Craig Green is an agronomist with Agrovista, based at Great Ellingham, Norfolk (Craig.Green@ agrovista.co.uk). ■

More Artist available to potato growers Efforts to control annual meadow grass in potatoes have become more difficult in recent years following label changes to popular products, but the improved availability of Artist (flufenacet + metribuzin) is set to make the task easier, says Bayer CropScience. “We have been aware for

several seasons of rising demand for the herbicide among growers and advisers as the preferred means of controlling annual meadow grass following the reduction in the maximum total dose of linuron that can be applied, but until this year we have been unable to secure the supplies needed to satisfy demand,”

comments Bayer CropScience root crop product manager Edward Hagues. Reduced rates of linuron have left a gap for better annual meadow grass control that could not simply be overcome by increasing rates of metribuzin for fear of damage to tubers.

“The problem with the low rates of linuron and metribuzin available to growers is that control is often short-lived and attempts to bolster rates can damage tubers, especially on light soils. This leaves flufenacet as the only reliable choice available to growers,” he adds. ■

In defence against light leaf spot Once a problem for the north and Scotland, light leaf spot is now becoming an increasing issue across the whole of the UK. That’s the view of some technical specialists. The past two years have seen the spread of light leaf spot (LLS), which has been accelerated by the warmer winters experienced in 2013 and 2014, allowing earlier infection and more rapid recycling of the disease. “In early spring 2014 there was an explosion of light leaf spot following these warm conditions which was a major challenge to control and although this winter has been colder, there has been exceptionally high infection pressure once again,” explains Frontier technical development manager, Stuart Hill. Andrew Roy, crop protection team leader for the company agrees. “I’ve seen an increase in the level of light leaf spot affecting the 2,200ha of crops that I walk each year. We now find ourselves in a situation where disease incidence is increasing, at the same time as declining fungicide performance with a loss of effectiveness in some of the key triazoles used to control LLS.” “Because LLS comes into the crop from November onwards, it requires treatment through the winter months, which is a difficult time for spraying especially in the north which is an additional issue to control,” he says. Spray programmes must become more preventative and use alternative modes of action, adds Stuart Hill. “A combination of SDHI and strobilurin chemistry, is a good option to limit epidemics of the disease.”

Ignoring the problem is not an option as Frontier’s northern seed manager, David Waite, confirms. “Left unchecked LLS can depress yield by more than 1t/ha. Fungicides, of course, can play an important role in controlling the disease but inherent, genetic resistance will give an underlying protection that is invaluable when weather conditions are not favourable to spraying the crop.” David points out that the next generation of oilseed rape varieties has the potential to raise yields and gross output above the perceived yield plateau. “Care and attention needs to be paid to seedbed conditions and establishment techniques with all varieties. However once the crop is established, disease pressure throughout the winter can test the crop severely; none more than light leaf spot which thrives on the cool damp conditions typical of a normal UK winter.” All three agree that a critical factor in controlling LLS is the integration of varietal resistance into rape programmes. Up for recommendation this autumn is the conventional variety, Nikita. Bred by Limagrain, this variety offers a glimmer of hope as it has a LLS rating of 8, which would make it the highest on the HGCA Recommended List. “Varieties with an LLS rating of 8 or 9 show significantly better natural

resistance compared with other varieties providing that bit of breathing space required to treat the crops,” says Andrew Roy. “In the past varieties such as Cuillin and Elan were both very strong and it’s great to see some new candidates like Nikita coming forward. These varieties should be selected as an important element in the fight against this very damaging disease.” Dr Vasilis Gegas, senior oilseed rape breeder with Limagrain, notes that in years when LLS pressure is high, resistance ratings may come under pressure and therefore there’s a distinct advantage in starting with the highest rating possible. Nikita not only offers a significant step forward for integrated disease management but also delivers solid seed and oil yield. “It’s a conventionally bred variety and a candidate for both the North and the East/West HGCA Recommended List for next year,” continues David Waite. “In the East/West region, Nikita has a gross output of 110 per cent putting it in joint highest position, 10 per cent

above DK Cabernet and 12 per cent over Excalibur, while in the North area it achieves 114 per cent gross output, making it the second best performing variety. “Additionally it has the short stiff stems that growers prefer for ease of harvest, and very good lodging resistance. Nikita is also medium to flower and mature.” ■

Good OSR margins in a disappointing year An average gross margin of over £600/ha – and up to £750/ha from one 9ha field – from his winter oilseed rape last season even at a rapeseed price of under £230/t leaves Meyrick Estate farm manager, Peter Bailey pleased at East Close Farm, Hinton Admiral on the south western edge of the New Forest near Christchurch. All the more so since one field – amounting to 20 per cent of the crop – ‘hammered’ by deer pulled the farm average well down and, at 4.25t/ ha, the remaining area averaged well short of the bumper 2011 harvest. Nor did the farm team stint on inputs, with variable costs working out at just over £520/ha. Oil contents of 44–46 per cent certainly helped margins, but the real secret of the crop’s success was

its HOLL (high oleic low linolenic) oil specification, earning a valuable premium on contract to ADM through Glencore Grain. Together with the standard oil bonus, this added around £140/ha to the bottom line. “We’ve grown HOLL rape ever since the first winter variety became available,” recalled Peter. “Back in 2006 we were looking for an alternative to winter barley in our mainly wheat and maize rotation and the ground had never grown rape before. So we leapt at the opportunity of a contract when Agrii’s Dorian Jones suggested it to us. Yield limitations across our mainly Grade 3 and 4 land mean we’ve always looked to grow crops that will deliver premiums wherever we can. “The HOLL premium, which we’ve

never failed to achieve in the eight years we’ve been growing the crop, meant we were more than happy with the 3.3–3.5t/ha we averaged with Splendor. Our satisfaction levels rocketed when the first hybrid HOLL came along, though. Luckily for us, this coincided with the best rape-growing year in living memory (2011). Even so, we were stunned to average 4.9t/ha and put many ordinary double lows in the shade.” While the 4.25t/ha brought in from last season’s main crop of V295OL fell well short of this, it proved every bit as competitive with commodity OSRs grown locally, including many on considerably better land. Add the fact that it hasn’t required any special treatment or extra growing costs and the reason

for Peter’s satisfaction with HOLLgrowing is clear. “We have to be on our toes controlling the charlock, runch and hedge mustard that is a particular problem on the farm to avoid compromising the oil specification,” pointed out Agrii agronomist, Todd Jex. “But this would be a top priority with any rape crop here – a legacy of the scale of past kale-growing. “Getting the crop away quickly is vital in combatting the large number of pigeons supported by all the local woodland. While we’ve yet to see light leaf spot on the farm, phoma is a serious threat. At the same time, effective growth regulation, canopy management and spring nutrition are key elements in our agronomy to deliver reliable 4t/ha-plus results.” ■

Because this only gives three weeks of protection, extra support could well be needed where flowering continues beyond mid-May. Having said that, it all depends on the weather. If it’s warm and wet then we’ll really need to watch out; all the more so, wherever there’s a history of problems. Nationally, sclerotinia is nowhere near as damaging as light leaf spot and phoma. But, as we found in 2007, in some seasons and places it can be very costly indeed. Overall, this year’s OSR is brimming with potential. Crops are nowhere near as thick and tall as many were last year. Most crops haven’t suffered winter water-logging either, and are very well-rooted. So, providing plant populations aren’t excessive, we should have some highly efficient and robust canopies capable of carrying plenty of yield. All we need now, of course, is some decent sunshine with enough moisture and temperature – only not too much of either please! ■

Nutrient nous needed across beet crop rotations Beet growers, pushing yields up to the 100t/ha mark, need to take into account the additional nutrients that they have carted off in the root when considering the fertiliser requirements of the following crop. According to K+S UK & Eire technical manager, Andrew Watson (right), this means revising the offtake rates quoted in the Fertiliser Manual – RB209 and balancing needs accordingly. He points out that RB209 calculations suggest that a 60t/ha beet crop removes 102kg/ha potash and 48kg/ha of both magnesium and phosphate. “However, a 100t/ha yield – which is what many are pushing later lifted crops towards – would remove twothirds as much again of each of these three nutrients (170kg/ha of K2O and 80kg/ha of MgO and P2O5). “If this additional offtake isn’t addressed, these higher levels of

removal will compromise potash or magnesium availability in the following spring cereal crop leading to both yield and quality reduction,” he says. At index of 0 for potash, RB209 recommends 130kg/ ha K2O for a 6t/ha spring barley crop while at index 2, 70kg/ha needs to be available. However, higher yielding spring cereals or those on drought prone or poorly structured soils will require more. For example for an 8t/ ha spring barley crop, Mr Watson recommends 21kg/ha more potash on Index 0–2 soils. “Growers also need to take into account the fact that under conditions of low potash availability, nitrogen is poorly utilised by cereals and that grain-fill is restricted leading to increased screenings and lower yield,” he warns. “It’s a similar effect with poor availability of magnesium, which is naturally low across most of the

beet producing region, resulting in curtailed yields and grain samples with a lower TGW.” New data from a long term, seven-year trial, on light land in Norfolk, adds to the argument and highlights the dangers of poor nutrition across a typical beet crop rotation. The work, independently conducted for K+S UK & Eire, showed that in every one of the five years where barley was grown, annually applied potash and magnesium delivered a yield response which ranged from 0.4–0.9t/ha according to the season, over crops with no applied K or Mg. However, the biggest response of almost 1t/ha produced an 8.2t/ ha spring barley crop by applying 180kg/ha fresh K2O and 27kg/ha of MgO – supplied to the crop as magnesium sulphate - when the crop followed sugar beet. Mr Watson also points out that even though in this trial beet yields were well short of the 100t/ha being seen by an increasing number of

growers, a large number of UK arable soils are already suffering as a result of continued potash holidays or an under estimation of offtake because of higher yields. “Analysis data from NRM Laboratories suggests that one in every three soils sampled each year in the UK is deficient in potash and one in every five falls short of magnesium,” he says. “So, production is being restricted. “There is also very strong evidence to suggest that today’s higher yielding spring barleys are particularly responsive to a good balance of both potash and magnesium in fully available forms. “Furthermore, using nitrogen alone without the associated potash and magnesium will not only restrict yield but fail to utilise a large proportion of the applied N.” His advice to those planting spring barley after beet – particularly on light land where nutrition has been allowed to slip – is to test soils and up their potash and magnesium rates accordingly. ■

Beware of cutting corners with tank washout It is easy to see how spray tank washout could become a bit of an inconvenience when time is tight. But growers should not be tempted to take shortcuts with good sprayer hygiene practise such as tank washout, when the trade-off may be increased risk of damage to sensitive crops. That’s the message from Lincolnshire-based agronomist Ruth East (right) who says the on-going issues around poor black-grass control and the three crop rule means more spring crops have been drilled this year. Spring cereals need early removal of weeds because their

season is shorter and the effect of weed competition greater. “Don’t cut corners when it comes to sprayer washout,” warns Miss East. “I know of growers who have used liquid fertiliser to try and clean out sprayers prior to moving from one crop to another, rather than to use the approved sprayer washout procedures. This is really bad practice because liquid fertiliser can stick pesticide residues to the inside of the tank.” She has also seen crop damage caused by compromised washout procedures. Many agrochemicals are formulated with

wetters and stickers which can actively dislodge chemical residues from the inside of a sprayer and its components. “Growers who compromise sprayer washout by trying to save time at such a busy time of year could have catastrophic consequences for crop health and also put part of the single farm payment at risk,” she stresses. With the potential risks so high and the workload pressure building, Miss East says growers must ensure they select their SU herbicides carefully. Generic sulfonylurea’s that have not been tested cannot be supported. “I always recommend R&D main brand products such as DuPont’s SX

formulations because it’s just not worth taking the risk when it comes to quality, efficacy, label security and manufacturer backing,” she says. “In addition, with SUs being applied to a variety of crops including cereals, sugar beet and potatoes, it is vitally important that a proprietary tank mix cleaner such as All Clear Extra is used. “It acts as an adjuvant and removes any herbicide residues that get ingrained in the plastic components on a sprayer or in the pipework and nozzles. Many herbicides require a more stringent washout procedure than others so growers should always consult product labels for specific washout requirements,” she advises. ■

Trinity upgraded to Group 1 status Following nabim’s final assessment, it has recommended to the HGCA that quality wheat variety KWS Trinity is upgraded from provisional Group 1, to full Group 1 status. Welcoming the news KWS UK managing director Andrew Newby said this was confirmation of the variety’s inherent grain quality characteristics. “This backs what we have seen

in more than four years of testing from small and large scale milling trials. At every stage KWS Trinity has produced the quality and consistency required of a variety to attain full Group 1 status. “Coming at a time when growers are looking for quality wheats with wider market appeal, we can confirm that the variety, which has genuine breadmaking suitability,

will be widely available this autumn,” he said. The company expects about 9,000t of seed to be available for planting this autumn, sufficient to take about 5 per cent of the market in its first year. As the highest yielding Group 1 variety for the eastern region and joint top highest yielder for the UK nationally, KWS expects it to sell-out this autumn.

Now fully approved by nabim, KWS Trinity combines excellent grain quality with good all-round disease resistance.

About People Farm operations manager HOPS, the agricultural recruitment specialist and labour provider has appointed Richard Millar as its farm operations manager.

Retirement from Ernest Doe

Richard brings a wealth of experience and contacts after being previously employed by Delaval, NFU and Agco, and joins the team to support the company’s current customers and drive business in both recruitment and labour.

Sugar adviser keeps links with the east Pamela Forbes, who, as East Anglia regional director, has led the regional team for the past 16 years, has taken over as NFU chief sugar adviser. Pamela, originally from Caithness and with a degree in agriculture from Aberdeen University, says: “With the EU axing sugar quotas from 2017, this is a pivotal moment to be joining the NFU’s sugar team. “Sugar is a hugely important crop for growers in East Anglia, so I’ll continue to maintain strong links with the region – and the

members who have given me so much support during my time as regional director.” Her replacement, Robert Sheasby is moving from the North West, where he was regional director for five years, to take on the same position for the NFU in East Anglia from 1 June. He has worked for the NFU for 14 years, firstly as the NFU’s livestock schemes adviser and then as its rural surveyor, before moving to the North West as regional director in December 2009.

Branch and group appointments Joining East Anglia dealership P Tuckwell as parts manager at its Worlingworth, Suffolk branch is Philip Warren. Philip will be familiar to many from his time at Framlingham Tractors and, more recently, at Whatling JCB. He has many years’ experience in running successful parts departments. He replaces Kenny Cattee

who, after more than 40 years managing the Worlingworth parts department, is changing roles to become group parts co-ordinator. As part of his new role he will be making sure the company’s parts offering across all depots continues to improve. With a working lifetime of dedicated and passionate service to Tuckwells and its customers alike, his experience and expertise are bound to still be very present around the Worlingworth branch.

Staff from Case IH and Ernest Doe Power gathered in Essex recently to mark the retirement of Tony Upton, after 55 years working in the industry. Tony, who spent the past 14 years of his career with Ernest Doe & Sons Ltd, sold a range of products for the dealership including Case IH tractors. His cheery approach to meeting customers’ needs will leave “big boots to fill”, said the company,

however his successor Paul Proctor has been learning from Tony over recent months, added the firm. Pictured at Ernest Doe & Sons’ Ulting headquarters are (l-r): Case IH marketing manager Charles Blessley; Case IH business director Richard Beadman; Case IH area sales manager, David Redman; Tony Upton; Ernest Doe Power’s general sales manager, Gerald Silvey; and Richard Western’s Mike Murray.

Rural Advice

For renewables think ‘Grid’ Pending a technological revolution in energy production we are going to see more on-farm energy schemes in the next 25–50 years. Which technology to invest in and whether or not to go it alone, or get a developer to lead the way will depend on the scale, technology, and on-site use, writes Carter Jonas rural partner Mark Russell.

Potential sites It does not matter which type of site is being considered, AD, wind or solar, in light of the above, any landowner with a potentially suitable site should act now to evaluate the opportunity and consider promoting the same to the market. There can be significant variations in the terms and values offered for sites; professional advice should be sought prior to agreeing any terms or allowing a developer to secure a grid connection on your holding. Retaining some control over the way electricity is sold may also be important. There is potential to increase returns by as much as up to £15,000 a year for a typical 500kW turbine installation. While FiTs grab all the headlines when it comes to renewable energy, as rates continue to decline by as much as 20 per cent per annum, those selling the electricity should remember that they are not the only tariff to consider to maximise returns on an investment. In the present market, the

purchase rates offered by electricity supply companies can often vary by as much as 30 per cent, making the marketing of the Power Purchase Agreement through an independent broker a necessity for anyone looking to maximise their returns from a project. A 1p/kWh improvement on a PPA for a 500kW turbine, can equate to £15,000 per annum. Through the variety of technologies and combined generating capacity of the sites our Energy Team offers to and trades within the market, we often achieve enhanced rates over those afforded to individual landowners. This brokerage service is geared towards maximising the returns available to landowners on their renewable energy schemes.

Top Tip Basic Payment Scheme – don’t panic, as with previous new schemes many will insure themselves by using a professional to complete this year’s forms. If it were my farming business I would be doing just that! Mark Russell can be contacted on 07967 555 737 or email: mark. russell@carterjonas.co.uk. ■

New sprayer range designed for performance and versatility The new sprayers have improved performance on and off road, and a wider range of boom and control options to suit modern farms.

A new range of trailed sprayers has been announced by Chafer, ahead of its official launch at Cereals in June. David Williams reports. The new sprayers replace the existing trailed models, but retain the same names; Guardian with capacities from 3,000–4,000 litres and Sentry from 4,000–6,000. Reflecting demands from different user types there are two main specifications in each range; Standard and a higher ‘e’-spec. All models from the base up feature multiple upgrades from the earlier trailed models, including an all-new chassis layout, and more efficient plumbing systems as well as a new tank design providing better stability. All have an improved induction hopper, which makes it easier and quicker to fill the sprayer, together with new controls, which reduce the likelihood of errors. According to the Lincolnshirebased manufacturer, the market for trailed sprayers in the UK has remained fairly static since the current range was introduced in 2006, with approximately 250 units supplied during 2014. Despite several big brand names entering the market during recent years, Chafer’s market share has increased; in 2006 the company’s products accounted for just two per cent of trailed sprayers over 24m, and five per cent of sprayers under 24m. The 2014 season saw this share increase to 22 per cent and 8 per cent respectively. “We try to make ourselves very approachable and, as well as the sales staff, customers can talk with our

design and workshop staff to discuss their particular needs,” explained managing director Chris Allen. “We don’t build for stock. Every sprayer is custom-built and our sprayers have an excellent reputation for build quality and performance resulting in strong residual values which reduce the cost of ownership and the cost per acre sprayed. We are becoming more significant in the UK market and although the current range of sprayers is well-liked, we know the new sprayers are significantly better and are very excited about the opportunity to explain all the new features to potential users at Cereals in June. From the base specification upward, all types of user will see improvements, including our widest boom yet available as an option.”

Better for field and road New features shared by all models are new chassis and tanks, providing extra strength and a lower centre of gravity. A wider range of hitch options is available and there is a new 65kph axle option with brakes and capability to handle the largest versions at speed. A steering axle is standard and air suspension is as previous models. Improvements to the plumbing include larger diameter pipework; up from 2 to 3in, and a higher-capacity hydraulically-driven centrifugal pump providing flow rates of up to 600 litres/ min – up 50 per cent from previous models. This means the sprayers are easily capable of high application rates for tasks such as liquid fertiliser application at forward speeds which were previously unattainable. The company quotes typical application speeds of 14kph compared witj 10kph previously. A regulating valve assembly returns any excess flow from the pump back to the tank, ensuring accurate control of pressure and flow, while maximising service intervals for the pump. All pipe and component fixings now use fork-type connectors

rather than the previous threaded type, and the company says this will speed up servicing and repairs considerably. Another key feature is an all-new induction hopper with 45 litres capacity on all models, up from 30–35 previously. This is mounted well clear of the ground and crops, under a hinged cover for protection, but it folds down for ease of use and incorporates several handy features designed to improve ease of use and speed of filling. Two rinsing nozzles are fitted, one with a more aggressive jet to wash out stubborn deposits from the containers, and the lid folds clear to a horizontal position allowing empty cans to be placed upside down on stands to drain fully. On the right side of the wash station is a control panel providing easy operation. “The induction hopper is where operators spend most of their time outside of the tractor cab, so it is very important it is easy to use and convenient,” explained marketing manager Joe Allen. “Induction rates in excess of 120. litres/min are achievable now so the operator can reduce down time.” Tanks are stainless steel, reflecting Chafer’s speciality in the liquid fertiliser market. A new tank shape boosts capacity and lowers centre of gravity by 10 per cent; flared lower front sections provide more capacity for the liquids lower down, while leaving space at the rear for larger wheels and narrow axle widths. Baffles prevent surging at the new higher travel speeds. The narrower upper profiles of the tanks have also provided space for the booms to fold lower for transport, the reduced overall height further improving stability and reducing the risk of damage during road travel.

Boom choice widened There are three boom options; F-series, G-series and H-series. All retain Chafer’s previous mast mounting system. The new F-series boom has the smallest working widths; with options up to 30m, versions over 24m utilising a triple-fold system. G-series offers triple folding from 30–40m and is based on the successful boom design used by the company since 2005. “The G-series booms are well-proven and have been popular, offering the capability to fold in stages for use at 12 and 24m as well as fully unfolded at maximum width,” said Joe. A new H-series boom is based on the G-series and is available in 36–42m widths, folding to operate also at 14 and 28m. “This will be popular, being stronger than the G-series at 40m and having a new centre frame that incorporates extra air suspension for bounce and tilt,” said Joe. “The air springs effectively isolate the boom from the movement of the chassis providing excellent stability, boom protection and optimal control of boom height over the target.” Chafer’s well-proven Contour boom levelling system is an option and, on e-specification versions a new feature is the ability of the boom to tilt below horizontal, for enhanced performance in undulating work areas. “The Contour system offers significant benefits and most purchasers of our sprayers over 30m opt for the upgrade once they see it in action,” explained Joe. “The additional performance of the new e-Contour version means we expect its popularity to increase.” All booms have 50cm nozzle spacing as standard with alternative spacings available to special order. Multiple nozzle body options can be accommodated and up to 20

Black-grass challenge demands modern solution Also announced by Chafer at the event was a new boomed granular applicator from its Horstine division, designed in response to the increased use of Avadex tri-allate). Avadex is manufactured by Gowan and the company’s UK and Ireland business manager Dr Dominic Lamb was at the event, and suggested that Avadex should be used as part of a stack treatment against the increasing problem of black-grass, due to its well-proven performance and the lack of resistance to the product. “There has been no proven resistance during the past 40 years since it was introduced,” he explained. “It has a different mode of action to almost any other active ingredient and there are very few restrictions regarding its use and following crops. Using it as a part of the ‘stack’ boosts performance and provides control but it has to be applied effectively.” To be effective Avadex has to be applied before black-grass emerges and it can be applied off the back of a sections can be controlled separately although individual nozzle control is also available. Stainless steel nuts and bolts and some plastic components are used, for resistance to liquid fertiliser and for ease of future maintenance.

Enhanced performance The e-spec version incorporates a comprehensive electronic control system as standard. Canbus electronics provide communication between all components and two 7in screens are used; one screen on the sprayer near the induction hopper providing one-touch operation of filling, rinsing, dilution and washing, and another similar screen in the cab allowing the operator to set-up and monitor all machine functions from the seat. E-spec includes all e-functions as standard, whereas on the base version functions are available independently.

Marketing manager, Joe Allen, demonstrates the new induction bowl.

cereal drill, or behind rolls which avoids the need for a separate pass. Dominic explained that it works best applied on a consolidated surface, but issues arise in situations where rolls aren’t used after drilling, or where the roller operator is not PA4G qualified. “Avadex needs to be applied as soon as possible after drilling and the spray evenness is critical, with two granules per cm2, the required application rate when applying the chemical at 15kg/ ha,” he said. The Horstine TMA2 and TMA4 applicators were popular with farmers and contractors applying Avadex in the 1980s and 1990s, but offered only 6- or 12m working widths and production of these machines ceased when Avadex use declined. Now, Dominic said, sales of Avadex are at a higher rate than at the product’s previous peak in the 1990s, due to its demand for black-grass control. A limited number of TMA4 applicators were produced last year, but demand far exceeded supply despite the less than ideal working width.

The solution, explained Rob Starkey, is the Horstine Cascade boomed applicator which offers working widths up to 24m and a 1,500-litre hopper. The Cascade was originally produced as a 20m applicator but its design has been modernised, including four separate metering sections. “Producing an accurate applicator of 24m is far more complex than producing a 12m machine,” explained Rob. “We have taken aspects of the proven Twin-Air product which offered excellent spread quality, and we can offer accuracy within two per cent at each outlet of the new Cascade. It is 3-point linkage mounted and, as well as Avadex, it can handle granular fertilisers and slug pellets as well as other small seeded crops.” Drive to the fan and metering system is hydraulic and different cassettes are fitted for different product sizes. As well as 24m working widths, there is a 15m boom available to suit 30m, an 18m to suit 36m, a 20m to suit 40m, and the 24m which will

also offer a solution for those with 48m tramlines. Booms are a mix of plastic and steel tubes, offering light weight and strength, the booms largely selfsupporting. Control is via an RDS ISOcan box offering individual metering unit control in four sections, and capable of auto-switching. It will also support variable rate application of fertiliser. The first seven are already sold, before a production example is complete, such is the demand from potential users, and the company expects significant interest in the new machine when it is launched at Cereals in June. Guide price is £26,000 on farm.

The higher specification also includes auto-section control via a TeeJet Aeros (other controllers are available) and air shut-off as standard. The e-control system has been developed by Chafer in-house. “Developing the system ourselves was the only way we could incorporate all functions we knew were needed in the specification,” explained Joe. “Off-the-shelf alternatives had some of what was needed, but made operation more complicated and our system is very easy to use.” The in-cab screen allows control of all plumbing functions as well as hydraulics, a selection of road and field operating modes for the steering as well as optional upgrades such as Contour boom height control. Fault finding is available through a diagnostic function which also allows remote access by technical staff to help rectify issues as quickly as possible, without the need to visit the machine. A programmable control joystick is also supplied allowing most-frequently needed functions to be quickly accessed. Prices for the new sprayers start at £49,500 for the Guardian 4,000-litre 24m, and £61,500 for a 5,000-litre Sentry equipped with a 36m boom. The higher e-specification versions of each add £13,000. “We used to be perceived as a manufacturer of equipment for the application of liquid fertiliser but, in more recent years, users have recognised the advantages offered by our range for more general agricultural spraying, and now most of our sprayers are purchased for general farm work.

The new Sentry and Guardian sprayers are equipped with features and performance to suit modern larger farms as well as those providing a contract-farming service,” explained

Chris. “We expect the convenience of our self-propelled sprayers to be attractive to, and likely to remain the preferred option for, those offering a contracting service over larger areas.”

The Horstine Cascade has been developed to help tackle the increasing black-grass problem.

German training investment in UK technicians The new Technicom training facility is part of the new visitors’ centre, with space for the largest products in the Grimme range.

Customers and UK dealers attended the official opening of Grimme’s Technicom training facility. David Williams reports. Grimme’s UK headquarters at Swineshead in Lincolnshire has benefitted from significant investment aimed at ensuring the company and its dealers have the best-prepared technicians in the business, and that its customers know how to get the best from their machines. The new training and visitor centre has been developed in an area that was previously an open-plan showroom but the new development includes offices and presentation areas, its three rooms named after products from the company’s product range. Further development of the site has included a covered

display area for used machines which were previously stored outside, and a larger parts store and machine preparation area. Grimme invests heavily in staff and dealer training and the Grimme Academy provides a formal training programme that combines work experience with technical knowledge. The company works with Brooksby Melton College to provide training to a Level 3 or 4 qualification, and students attend on a 3–4 week block release programme, several times a year. The course and qualification doesn’t focus solely on Grimme products as a more rounded experience is considered more

Further investment has been made in the Swineshead UK headquarters including a used machinery display area, a larger parts store and a new machine preparation area where machines with a bespoke specification can be produced.

valuable. Knowledge of tractors and their systems is deemed essential to allow students to fully understand how implements work with them for optimum performance. “All of our dealers have the opportunity to enrol staff on the training course, and the structured learning is considered a significant benefit to employees,” explained Grimme UK after sales manager Russell Lister. New Grimme employees spend a year at the company learning the basics before being enrolled on the course. “This means they can decide if they enjoy working within the industry,” said Russell, “and they can progress to Level 3 in their final year or, if they want to continue to a business management qualification, can continue an extra year to achieve Level 4. Currently we have eight students working to Level 2, one to Level 3 and two in their final year of a Level 4 qualification, and half are from dealers, with the remainder from Grimme UK. “This investment in our training facilities is long overdue, as quality training is so important to the industry. The training centre previously didn’t reflect our marketleading brand and the new facility helps guarantee our future,” he said. Russell pointed out that the breadth of training provided reflects the culture at Grimme UK, explaining that everyone works as a team and becomes involved in all departments, helping out where needed for the benefit of customers. “We are determined that the courses includes as much practical experience as possible, and from this season the students will be growing their own potato crop at the college. The seed is supplied by McCain and Grimme

products are used for all tasks from field preparation and planting to harvesting. We want future engineers who are technically in touch with the industry and who have experienced the whole growing process, including basics such as where to walk in the field, where to drive and how to handle the fragile crop correctly. They are working with Soilessentials too, so they understand the principles of soil analysis and structure and can identify with issues faced by growers in the future.” At the open day managing director Franz Grimme said that investment in the new training centre was essential to ensure adequate training is available for machine operators as well as dealer and manufacturer staff. “In Germany increased training demand and investment has enabled users to make the most of the technology available on modern machines. We used to need big hammers to repair agricultural equipment but it is different today and there is a greater need for knowledge, especially when we consider increasingly important developments such as TIM (Tractor Implement Management), now available on our harvesters. Our designers work hard to provide top performing equipment and the important support we provide through dealers is all based on the Grimme philosophy that our relationship with customers is a partnership,” he explained.

...More on previous page Boughton. The brand is known for its build quality, strength and reliability and we are able to provide users with very high standards of back-up through the service we receive from Grimme, which is exceptional. It is great to see the company making such a big investment in training which inspires confidence in us and which we can pass on to our customers.” Simon is pictured (right) with Derek Isted from the company’s parts department. “I find all the Grimme staff very approachable and keen to provide any advice

or help that we need,” added Derek. “The service is excellent and we have even had Grimme staff meet us halfway along the road to handover parts to get users working again as soon as possible on a Sunday. That kind of dedication to back-up makes my life easier and it is reassuring to know that when something does go wrong, someone is trying their hardest to help us. It is a very good team.”

Rugeley, Staffordshire farmer, James Daw, grows 340ha (850 acres) of potatoes for processing manly for the chip and crisp market. Trading as WB Daw & Son, he has been working with Grimme and Soilessentials for the past three years developing a growing regime using yield mapping to tailor inputs to match the potential crop. “I was updating my harvester and wanted to move to a tracked version and also wanted a yield mapping system for my potato crop which would record precise

records for an area, just as we have become used to on our combine harvester,” he explained. “We invest £2,000-plus per acre growing our potato crop and marketable yield is the key to achieving maximum returns. The new harvester is fitted with yield recording and mapping software and we have implemented a programme of planting with variable spacing to suit soil types during the past two years and follow that up with tailored irrigation and variable rate fertiliser application. Yield maps

obtained during cereal harvesting can be overlaid and compared with potato yield maps to spot similarities and to work out how to optimise growing conditions.” Results so far are looking promising including a more uniform crop with a greater proportion of saleable yield and the planter is equipped with section control by row, which means that when working against a diagonal headland there is less double planting and reduced unplanted area. James said the reduced seed wastage in the field was evident when, at the end of planting, he had 7t of seed left over. Monitoring the crop has included overflying with drones to measure the canopy but James said one of the biggest challenges is working out during the season how best to use all the information; “We have used RTK for ridging up for three or four seasons, and are now using technology to achieve variable tuber spacing and fertiliser and pesticide application,” he said. “We

Chris Powell trades as CC Powell Ltd and is based at Turriff, Aberdeenshire. He has represented the Grimme brand for five years as

an independent dealer although before that he supplied the products as a Grimme-owned retail outlet. He specialises in potato and root crop machinery and looks after customers in Aberdeenshire, Ross-shire and Morayshire and the brands represented include Chafer sprayers, Greencrop Irrigation and Horstine. “We look after approximately 30 large producers and about 20 growers supplying smaller markets such as farm shops,” he explained. “Our customers are producing a valuable high-end crop and a premium product has to be grown

Kent dealer Bell Agricultural representatives were at the event. Having represented the brand for about eight years the dealer looks after approximately 15 trailed and two self-propelled harvesters, as well as a large number of planters; mainly GB215s and GL32Bs. Potato growers in the area include salad and seed producers although most are main-crop and there is a mix of contract and free market production. “The Grimme franchise sits very well alongside our John Deere machines and tends to appeal to the same professional users,” explained technician Simon

and handled with premium care. In our area weather windows for field operations are scarce, so we have to have machinery which operates at 110 per cent. We sell a mix of trailed and self-propelled harvesters including many second-hand selfpropelled. Most of the machines are trailed though and in our area customers tend to purchase and own them outright rather than using finance. “We have five technicians, one of which is on Grimme’s apprentice scheme. It works very well as he is focussing his training on our key products and he is

plan all our A-B lines in advance and send them to the tractor and the applicator maps are loaded into the planter box through a new CCI terminal, similar to that now available commercially from Grimme, but with additional software to control planting rate.” Two identical tractor and planter combinations are being used for planting this year. In previous years tractors of another brand were used, which offered adjustable hydraulic oil flow, but it was impossible to have separate flow rates for different circuits. This meant that when the micro granule application equipment rate was adjusted to match the planting rate, the applicator fan speed would alter, affecting accurate placement. Deutz Fahr has supplied two tractors capable of maintaining constant oil flow to the applicator fan for constant air velocity but which, at the same time, can provide independently variable hydraulic flow rates to the planter and metering systems, so this should no longer be an issue.

fully-trained and up-to-date on recent developments including the latest hydraulic system and wiring diagrams. Technology is moving fast and when he is away on his block training he is working on the same machines as us, but also0 the latest versions, so when we receive the first deliveries of a new model, he already has experience on it. The Grimme training is good in that it includes other machinery too, so he has a general understanding of all the machines in use. If I take on another suitable candidate in future, I would definitely use the scheme again,” he added.

A new Horstine opener, capable of applying up to three different products to different positions relative to the potatoes will work in almost any conditions. Developed in conjunction with Grimme, key features of the design include its ability to maintain an even soil flow even at high speeds, so the nutrients and pesticides end up precisely where needed. The company pointed out that openers capable of applying nutrients while planting have been available for 20 years or more, but that working rates of 10kph are now expected, rather than 4kph previously. The new openers, capable of applying solid fertiliser, are available now, while versions for use with liquid fertilisers will be available in the near future.

Visitors to the open day were able to inspect the new facilities and meet Grimme UK staff as well as members of the Grimme family. Pictured (l-r) are; Jan Soltau, Alan Witham, Franz Grimme, Lee Bright and Stephen Witham. The Withams are contractors based in Norfolk and trade as SW Witham & Sons. They have owned and operated Grimme Rexor self-propelled beet harvesters since 2010, updating the machines each year. Approximately 3,000 acres of beet are lifted annually. “The beet yields this season were the highest for many years and we put a vast amount of crop through our machine. Even during the five years we have been running Grimme harvesters, we have seen an improvement and the machine is as close to perfect now as it is possible to get. It is comfortable, the steering is good and everything is well laid out making it superb to operate; explained Alan. “Our customers like the machine as the Oppel wheel lifting means that even when the soil is hard and dry we can get almost all the taproot out and onto the heap, and we have recently ordered our fifth machine to be with us for the coming 2015/16 season,” he added. “The back-up from Grimme is superb and we find all the staff approachable, including Mr Grimme who is always keen to hear our views on his company’s machines.”

The Technicom training facility is based on a similar design concept to that which has proved successful at Grimme’s headquarters in Germany. Pictured at the open day are (l-r) Chris Powell, Mrs Christine Grimme, Russell Lister, Russell Button and Mark Addinall.

Latest products on show at Cambs dealer day Farmers and contractors from Bedfordshire, Cambridgeshire, Northamptonshire and Hertfordshire enjoyed the opportunity to view some of the latest products from a wide range of suppliers at Case IH main dealer, Collings Bros’ early April open day. David Williams reports. The dealer has three branches; Brigstock in Northants, Chatteris in Cambs and its headquarters at Abbotsley near the Cambridgeshire, Bedfordshire border. Along with Case IH, main franchises include Merlo, Kuhn, Great Plains, Lely, Reco, Bomford as well as many other suppliers. The three branches serve growers

with a range of soil and farm types so machines from across the ranges of all the brands represented are in demand. The annual open day takes place the week before Easter and is always popular with customers keen to find out what is new and to speak with manufacturer and dealer staff regarding features and benefits of the various models.

Case IH precision farming specialist Ross MacDonald is pictured in the cab of a Quadtrac 620. Promoting the range of precision farming products available from Case IH he explained that a new service was to be made available by the manufacturer during the next few months, providing improved availability of a correction signal wherever the machine is working. AFS-RTK Plus is available across Europe, including the UK and uses existing base stations as well as new masts which have been installed in areas where reception was weak. A roaming sim-card is used to access the system which enables users to work almost anywhere in the UK without having to change networks. Existing systems are compatible, as long as they are sim-card based and the only requirement is that settings are changed to find the new network through the Case IH servers. Cost is £800 per year and the network will be available from late April. Further news from Case IH on precision farming products is the availability of Stage 4 Pumas direct from the factory with systems to suit any type of correction signal – currently only Omnistar systems are available. “Demand for these products is increasing,” explained Ross, “and our systems ensure maximum accuracy and optimal reliability.”

The V-Form OSR Micro Wing oilseed rape drill and Contour HZ horizontal-folding rolls were on show in the Cousins display area. “Many customers already have the V-Form subsoilers and an advantage of Cousins’ design is that the standard legs can be swapped for Micro-Wings allowing rape to be drilled with an existing machine,” explained Collings Bros sales representative Peter Chessum (left), pictured with Cousins product specialist David Howard. “Results have been excellent, particularly if the zonal roller has been fitted at the rear providing consolidation in the areas required. Almost every farm I visit has at least one piece of Cousins equipment and the rolls and cultivators have a reputation for lasting forever.”

The annual open day at Collings Bros’ Abbotsley branch was well attended by new and existing customers keen to find out about the latest models from many leading brands.

New Turbofarmer 2 telescopic handlers from Merlo were on show. Launched in 2014, the latest machines feature modular construction which means they have superb lift capacity and reach, but compact dimensions maximising manoeuvrability and convenience in tight working areas, explained Merlo area sales manager James Allen (left), who is pictured with Tony Fincham and the new machines. “They have been welcomed by users for their more spacious cabs and the cab suspension which is unique to our range, and available on many models. The new machines feature higher lift capacities and there is a new CV Tronic transmission option available which offers improved versatility over the standard hydrostatic unit. We are displaying two of the models which are proving most popular in this area – the TF42.7 with 4.2t capacity and 7m lift height and the TF38.7 which will lift 3.8t to 7m, both with the optional cab suspension,” he explained.

Kuhn products from across the manufacturer’s extensive range are sold by the dealer and area sales manager Paul Gregory is pictured with Collings Bros sales representative Rebecca Baker. “The brand has a reputation for being strong and reliable,” said Rebecca, “and that is certainly apparent when we are in discussion with farmers regarding new machines. The fertiliser spreaders are particularly popular, and when potential customers are deciding which brand to buy, the variable rate application and border control available from Kuhn appeals. There is excellent compatibility with Case IH tractors too, as the Isobus systems allow easy set-up and operation from the tractor controls.” Other products in demand from the brand include the bale shredders. “The Primor 3570M is a real favourite, and the Comfort kit which is currently free and includes hydraulic beater bar control making it easy to switch between round and square bales, and the remote back door, which makes it easy to load, makes it ideal for the many beef and turkey farms in the area,” she added. “Collings Bros represents our brand over a large area,” said Paul. “It supports the products well and the staff are always open to new ideas and concepts and very proactive with a strong focus on More over page... the brand.”

...More on previous page It was the first public UK showing of Great Plains’ Centurion 600 grain and fertiliser drill. Pictured with the new model, which was launched at Sima, are Great Plains area sales manager Jason Weston (left) with Collings Bros sales representative Pete Chessum who is based at Abbotsley. “We have had a very successful spring demonstration campaign,” said Jason, “and interest has been from those wanting to use it for direct drilling with the optional turbo-discs, as well as within a conventional cultivations regime. Other options such as the soil razor discs which have a sharper fluted edge to cut through heavy trash are also available, extending its versatility.” “We have many requests for demonstrations during autumn,” said Peter. “Features such as the ease of filling and straightforward operation as well as the simple calibration procedure appeal, and the results have been excellent with the equal weight transfer across the coulters and the tyre press over the working width which ensures even germination and reduces headland compaction. I am looking forward to seeing it in action on customers’ farms this autumn.”

RTK Farming sales and support specialist PJ Walker is pictured with a display highlighting the services offered by the company. “We have been working with Collings Bros for approximately three years,” said PJ. “We work with the highest levels of precision and are well-established in East Anglia but are extending our network to cover the area north to the Humber and south to the M25. A large number of contractors use and like our service because, although they usually work in a confined area, there will be occasions when they are working further afield and our network gives them the continuation of service they require. The service costs £500 per tractor per year and most users move the kit between machines depending on the season for optimal benefit. “We specialise in providing a reliable signal and ensure large overlap between areas, so that if a base station is out of action for any reason, there will usually be an alternative which can be used, covering the same area. We are noticing significantly increased demand from users in the east of England,” he added.

Weaving’s Sabre and standard Tine drills are creating considerable interest with the dealer’s customers according to Weaving Machinery sales manager Carl Humphries who is pictured (right) with Collings Bros sales representative John Northern, based at the dealer’s Brigstock branch. “Usually potential customers will be keen to see the drills operating on their own land, but the performance is such that demonstrations usually result in sales,” explained Carl. “The quality of the product, the finished result as well as the price and the back-up available means the drills are an excellent package and the area represented by Collings Bros includes a mix of farms of all sizes and soil types so there is demand across our range.” A new product displayed was the Weaving rotary ditcher, designed to be mounted on a hedgecutter arm. “The dealer has sold quite a few in the first year of availability,” explained Carl, “and demand has been such that it is now kept in stock. It throws soil up to 3m through an adjustable chute and has an 80cm working width. It is designed for left-handed use so is ideal for UK roads, and is priced at £2,680 which includes a two-year warranty,” he added. John explained that he has experienced considerable success for Weaving’s new Big Disc drill, particularly in the area served by the Brigstock depot through which several machines have already been supplied. “The lack of soil disturbance means it is a great weapon in the fight against blackgrass,” he said, “and crops established late in the autumn, giving time for black-grass control ahead of drilling, are looking good.”

Sales of Richard Western trailers remain strong, according to Collings Bros area sales representative Chris Smith who is based at the dealer’s Chatteris branch and who is pictured (left) at the open day with Richard Western marketing manager Michael Murray. “The clever monocoque design means the trailers are strong but very light allowing users to make the most of available capacity,” said Chris. “The 14t grain trailer remains the most popular with our customers but we are seeing increasing sales of 16 and 18t versions and increased interest in larger tri-axle models with 20–24t capacity.”

Mark Chapman of Chapman Farms, Ellington, Cambs is pictured (left) with Bomford area sales manager Craig Whiting, and Rebecca Baker who looks after the Chapman’s account, along with Bomford products on show. Mark commented that the back-up his family receives from the dealer and its staff is very good which, together with the performance of his current 20-year old 5.5m-reach Bomford hedgecutter, has encouraged him to purchase a new Hawk 6.5m telescopic version. “The existing machine has done us well,” he explained, “but the extra reach of the replacement will be a big help to us and the extra head power; 75hp compared with the previous 45hp, will make quite a difference. The new Hawk will be used to maintain verges and hedges around the 1,200 acres of arable crops we farm and we have ordered it with the optional electric controls having had a demonstration, arranged by Rebecca. The ease of control impressed us and we feel the benefits easily justify the extra cost,” he added.

The open day was an opportunity to compare balers on offer from franchises including Case IH, Kuhn and Lely.

Access platforms continue to generate many enquiries, according to Cherry Products director Graham Cherry. “We have sold a very large quantity during 2014 and so far in 2015,” he said, “as farmers become more aware of their obligations under Health & Safety legislation. We provide a galvanised finish as standard specification and supply them with mounting brackets, a self-closing gate and a tool shelf. We offer versions from 1.2m, suitable for one person, to 3.0m wide and suitable for two people to work, and they are proving popular across the country.” Other products creating interest are push-off buck rakes which, Graham said, are well made and good value and easy to use, incorporating a very efficient design. Graham is pictured (left) with local farmer Mr Millard, from Caxton, Cambs, who has recently ordered a Cherry Products bale grab through the dealer. “We were looking for something similar and were aware that other local farms have purchased the Cherry Products model, and are getting on well with it and having seen one working for ourselves, we were very impressed,” explained Mr Millard. “We do quite a lot of business through Collings Brothers and bought a new Case IH 434 baler last year. Our sales representative, Peter Chessum, looks after us very well.”

On-hand to assist visitors to the open day were dealer staff and representatives from the main franchises. Pictured with some of the Case IH products shown were (l-r) Ben Wood, John Northern, Chris Hinton, David Redman, Peter Smith, Chris Smith, Matthew Pratt, Ross MacDonald, Peter Chessum, Rebecca Baker, Tony Fincham and Richard Beadman.

Dealer broadens its horizons Lincolnshire-based Ireland’s Farm Machinery is feeling very positive about its future, having been appointed the franchise for Kverneland, covering Long Sutton, Sleaford, Lincoln and Louth. The dealer views the appointment as particularly significant, since Kverneland not only has the number one-selling plough in the UK and Europe but also has a range of tillage, cultivation, fertiliser spreading and grassland products. Thanks to active product development and effective production processes, the Kverneland brand is one of the bestknown and most widely-respected

names in the business, says Ireland’s, contributing to efficient operations in terms of both yields and costs. This latest move builds on Ireland’s appointment as a Kubota dealership in 2014 – a company that, it says, has an “enormous” commitment to the future of agriculture, not least in its acquisition of the Kverneland group in 2012 and its establishment of a new manufacturing facility in the Dunkirk area of northern France. This is where it will soon start to produce the new M7001 tractors in the 130—175hp range, enhancing its existing tractor offering in the below 135hp bracket. ■

An Italian departure In response to growing interest from its dealers, and despite its 35-year legacy of engineering sprayers, Team Sprayers, for the first time ever, is supplementing its sprayer range in the shape of a fruit sprayer from Italian specialists SAE. Sales director Danny Hubbard says: “Rather than develop our own fruit sprayers, it makes sense to import proven machinery from a respected manufacturer equally keen to establish its Turbmatic brand in England. “Similarly, the company was pleased to work with Team, given our dealer network and knowledge of spraying and application systems.” Key to the SAE Turbmatic’s efficiency is a rear-mounted fan system that maintains pressure and uniform droplet spread. It is offered in a range of formats and sizes. Trailed models are available with 650—910mm

fans, certified for low power absorption and symmetrical distribution, with front or rear aspiration. These are also available with a tower aspirator. Tanks are offered in 600–3,000-litre capacities. The fresh water tank is mounted within the main tank, reinforcing the overall structure and contributing to stability during road transport and when working on inclines. Other SAE models include tractor-mounted compact options and high-productivity twin-fan systems.

SAE’s orchard sprayers are now available from Team Sprayers of Ely.

Ireland’s and Kverneland teams in the field and (inset) Ireland’s director, Jonathan Ireland (left) pictured with Kverneland area sales manager Robert Thornton at the dealer’s Sutterton depot, near Boston in Lincolnshire.

Exacting speciﬁcations New features are being introduced on Exacta spreaders for 2015 for even better accuracy and efficiency says Kverneland. Spread widths up to 54m are now possible with the Exacta HL and TL GEOspread when equipped with high-lift vanes. Working widths and spreading potential are easy to check using the very latest spreading charts available through a dedicated web site, an Autoset app on the IsoMatch Tellus terminal, or via a smartphone app. The Autoset app connects the IsoMatch Tellus universal in-cab terminal with the spreader. After entering data such as working width, application rate, forward speed, distribution size and density of the fertiliser, shape and product type, setting advice is given. This can then be sent to the spreader, which automatically adjusts its settings accordingly. Additional changes include the addition of a hydraulic border spreading plate on all models except

the entry-level Exacta EL, to provide in-cab control of border spreading. There is also a new ExactLine border spreading system, now available for left- and right-hand spreading, making it possible to spread in a very small field using both mechanisms simultaneously. Mudguards now protect the spreader against dirt and water thrown up by the tractor wheels, while a new parking frame makes it easy to store and transport the spreader using pallet forks. LED rear lights are also part of the standard specification on 2015 models. Kverneland’s fertiliser spreaders cost from £3,530.

Spread widths up to 54m are possible with GEOspread models.

Making the most of forage Based at Walk Farm in Frome, Neil Darwent is the farm manager looking after a 230 head dairy herd and dual-purpose stores currently numbering 196. The dairy cows are Montbéliarde, known for their excellent fertility and low somatic cell counts versus the traditional Holstein. Moreover, with reduced calving interval and producing robust male offspring, this breed is an all-round performer. Key to this operation is growing 48ha (120 acres) of conservation leys, hybrids and red clovers to give the crude protein levels in the forage that his cows need as part of a balanced nutrition profile. The red clover is essential to boosting protein content and, with an average of 16.5 per cent crude protein, Mr Darwent understands the difference that good quality silage can make. Currently forage delivers around 50 per cent of their 6,800 litre average milk yield, but his aim is to get this up to around 60 per cent. “By growing the right varieties, following best practice from cutting to feeding out, and using Sil-All 4x4+ inoculant, I maximise the usage of my own forage and reduce the

amount of bought in feed. This has a significant impact on my bottom line,” he says. Autumn calving is essential to turning out strong young stock at the beginning of April. Their winter diet is based on TMR with majority grass silage and boosted by concentrate as required. Feeding out from the clamp starts in October, meaning that from first cut in May there is every opportunity to ensile well and deliver high quality forage. An essential part of this process is the inoculant. For the past 15 years Mr Darwent has used Sil-All 4x4+ as his inoculant of choice. While he has tried others, he knows the research that backs it up is leading the way, with over 1 million bacteria with every gram of forage. Animal nutrition company Lallemand product manager, Gordon Marley says: “Sil-All 4X4+ advanced formulation now includes propionibacterium acidipropionici as the fourth strain. This bacteria, specific to Sil-All 4X4+, efficiently converts fermentation acids to stability enhancing acids reducing the number of yeast and mould during silage storage, enhancing the stability of the silage at feed out.”

Frome farm manager, Neil Darwent aims to increase forage milk yields.

Neil Darwent’s top tips for making the best silage • Timing is critical – keep a careful eye on the weather then cutting and • • • •

wilting between 24–36 hours before ensiling Manage your clamp – make sure that the clamp is clean, dry with solid walls Compaction – you can never do enough, reduce the air in the pile as much as possible Rapid pH drop – using an inoculant, such as Sil-All 4x4+, is the only way to get the pH down quickly and gives stability throughout the crop’s lifetime Feeding out – use a well-maintained shear grab to cut the face cleanly and work across the face. Clear up any loose, fallen silage on a daily basis to avoid spoilage and waste

Competition builds a picture of successful grass-based nutrition

Silage-making at Donal Callery’s Co Dublin farm, one of the four Irish entrants to last year’s Yara Grass Prix.

The 15 entrants for this year’s Yara Grass Prix competition have been announced – many returning from last season. Now in its second year, the competition focuses on optimal grass nutrition, with the winning farm the one that produces the highest metabolised energy (ME) yield over two cuts of silage. Last year’s competition was hard-fought, says Yara, with entrants averaging ME yields of 138,520MJ/ ha – significantly beating the UK and

Ireland average of 88,000MJ/ha. Eventual 2014 winner Willie Watson from Ayrshire took the prize with an ME yield of 18,927MJ/ha and feed value of 17.7DMt/ha, and is looking to defend his title this year. Competition organiser and Yara agronomist Jez Wardman says: “Grass is a vital part of any livestock enterprise and remains the most costeffective feed for the dairy, beef and sheep sectors, either as grazing or as conserved forage. “It needs careful attention to

optimise the output and maximise returns – and too often this is overlooked. “Effective nutrition has a vital role in growing grass successfully, in terms of both yield and quality. “Last year taught us that there’s no one-size-fits-all recommendation. Each farm – indeed, each field – is different and should be managed accordingly. “For Willie, with cows that yield 11,000 litres of milk a year, having grass silage valued at the equivalent of £2,943 per hectare as the foundation

of the ration has made a significant difference.” Yara’s regional sales team works closely with the farms, he adds, offering the tools, resources and advice necessary for success. This includes: free analysis of soil, slurry and tissues; advice on all inputs, application rates and timings; help measuring the yield at harvest; and free analysis of samples for grass quality. Jez adds: “The analysis will allow us a better understanding of how the entrants’ final yield was achieved, and will build on the important lessons learnt in 2014 on maximising the yield from grass. “Currently grass yields in the UK and ROI deliver 6—10t/ha of dry matter which is, on average, less than half of its biological potential. “One of the main reasons for low grass yields is the poor or incorrect use of nitrogen fertiliser, in terms of rate and timing of application. “Grass really deserves the same level of attention to detail more usually given to arable crops.” Final results of the competition should be available in August following anticipated second cuts in June and July. ■

Landpower becomes 6L series The biggest ‘mechanical’ tractor in the Landini range is being given a new identity and a new more fuel- and power-efficient engine. Distinguished now as the 6L series, the new 6-145L, 6-160L and 6-175L are built around an Argo Tractors transmission, said to have ‘bulletproof’ robustness and reliability, partnered with latest-spec 4-cylinder engines. Despite the engine change, there’s no reduction in wheelbase. The newcomers, therefore, retain the ability to operate heavy implements with high levels of traction and stability. The line-up starts with the 6-145L, which has rated-speed output of 131hp, rising to 143hp as the engine’s full performance potential is exploited under heavy load. Meanwhile, the 6-160L has rated power of 150hp at 2,200rpm before the modern engine’s power bulge takes peak output to 163hp. Higher torque output allows the engine to ‘hang on’ for longer in heavy draft situations. Finally the 6-175L takes the new range to 170hp at rated speed, then 176hp maximum under full load, with torque output climbing to 700Nm at 1,500rpm. Landini distributor AgriArgo UK

sales director Ray Spinks notes: “The changeover from a 6.7-litre 6-cylinder engine reflects an industry-wide move to 4-cylinder engines with higher specific power outputs. “While many of our Landpower users will be disappointed to see the 6-cylinder engine go, the 4.5-litre FPT 4-cylinder engine is a more costeffective solution in the ongoing drive to reduce emissions while still delivering plenty of power and torque.” Engine specification for the new 6L models is similar to that used for the more sophisticated Landini 6 series tractors, with a proven SCR system cleaning the exhaust gases. Electronically-managed common rail fuel injection provides precise high-pressure fuelling for optimum combustion efficiency, and the engines are tuned to deliver favourable torque characteristics for draft work. However, in contrast to the higher-spec range with its semipowershift transmission, electronic spool valves, cab and axle suspension options and pressure/ flow compensating hydraulic pump, the Landini 6L series continues the successful Landpower formula for those who prefer to keep things

The 6-175L, largest of Landini’s 6L series.

relatively simple. Base specification includes an all-manual 18x18 speed transmission, synchro shuttle, gear pump hydraulics and mechanical spool valves. Equipment levels can be enhanced to suit different applications and preferences. The transmission, for example, can be upgraded to a 54x18 configuration with electric power shuttle and 3-speed powershift, and a creep gearbox is available. Land-drive PTO is standard in addition to engine-driven 540 and 1,000rpm speeds, as is the electronic linkage control. The spool valves, however, are all mechanical: three are installed as standard, with two

operated by a 4-way joystick on the side console. A further two can be added. With total oil flow of 125 litres/ min from a 2-pump installation – 38 litres/min dedicated to steering and the remainder for lift linkage and the remote valves – the open centre hydraulics system is more than a match for most implement requirements. A 3.5t front linkage is available to complement the 7.0t rear linkage. Completing the package, the spacious 4-post Master Class cab has a large glass area for good all-round visibility, air conditioning and an air suspension driver’s seat. ■

Top link gives option of going solo A new hydraulic swivel top link system for Amazone’s AD pack top seed drill combinations offers the advantage of being able to use the soil tillage implement independently of the drill. When the piston rod is extended, the seed drill is tilted forward so that the coulters and following harrow are lifted by at least 10cm, while the tines of the soil tillage implement are lowered

deeper into the soil by about 30cm. In this way, the machine can be used to pre-work certain areas, particularly useful in field corners. The arrangement also gives a better ground clearance for headland turns. When the piston rod of the hydraulic ram is retracted, and the seed drill returned to its usual operating position, the rod is protected from soiling – unlike

other manufacturers’ systems, says Amazone. The target working depth of the sowing coulters – and the harrow – is safely maintained, even when there’s a slight leakage in the tractor’s hydraulic system, the company adds. The new top link is available for all AD sowing combinations that include a 580 wedge ring roller or a 600-tooth packer roller.

Annual Investment Allowance is ending JCB Finance warns that a £500,000 tax saving opportunity is drawing to a close. The March 2015 Budget confirmed what had already been announced in last year’s Budget - a temporary increase in the Annual Investment Allowance (AIA) from £250,000 to £500,000 with it scheduled to revert back to £25,000 on 1st January 2016. However, with the election imminent, uncertainty regarding the AIA exists, says the company, adding that clarity should be forthcoming at the next Autumn Statement in December or following an emergency budget when a new government is formed. Anyone contemplating buying, or financing on hire purchase, replacement agricultural machinery should do it this year while the rules are still clear, points out the firm. The enhanced AIA of £500,000 is available for capital expenditure on plant, machinery and commercial vehicles (not cars) purchased from April 2014 until 31st December 2015. This is an important tax incentive which accelerates the tax relief so that 100 per cent of eligible expenditure can be offset against taxable profits in the first year,

instead of taking up to 12 years to reclaim 90 per cent of the original cost using the normal 18 per cent annual writing down allowance, explains JCB Finance. In effect, for every £1 spent the Government will give £1 back in the form of relief against taxable profits. The net benefit will depend on the rate of income tax or corporation tax that a business pays - which could be between 20–45 per cent, it says. It is the equivalent of a subsidy to encourage businesses to invest in agricultural machinery, continues the company. Considering that the majority of UK farmers are made up of sole traders or partnerships, the payment of income tax means that there is the potential to gain an even larger reduction in the amount of cash payable to HMRC. Capital expenditure via a hire purchase (HP) agreement is also eligible for exactly the same AIA, just as if you had paid cash, but you will also gain a terrific cash flow advantage. Potentially a business could gain up to £500,000 in tax relief after only having paid the deposit, and the interest charged is also 100 per cent tax deductible. All businesses can claim the AIA

Anyone contemplating buying, or financing on hire purchase, replacement agricultural machinery should do it this year while the rules are still clear, points out JCB Finance.

– the only exceptions are Mixed Partnerships or Trusts (ie those in which a company is a member). JCB Finance says that if you have not already planned how to maximise the benefit speak to your accountant or finance director now. If your Financial Year end was March or your Tax Year End was April, then your £500,000 AIA has already dropped to £375,000. Other factors being equal, if

your business is contemplating purchasing eligible machinery or commercial vehicles in the near future, there are some strong taxbased and cash flow arguments to carefully plan these purchases before the end of your financial year and certainly before 1st January 2016, so that you can maximise on the available AIA before it changes to an amount as yet unknown, concludes the company. ■

Rolls on the main menu Since switching his entire crop establishment approach to one of direct drilling three years ago, Northamptonshire farm manager Nathan Kilby has come to realise how imperative it is to roll stubbles after drilling. Not once, but twice. For Nathan, consolidation is now king and, for him, the rolls have become the most important bit of kit at Manor Farm, Towcester. “Rolls do an essential job even in a conventional system,” he says. “But they’re even more critical in a no-till situation.” However, when the farm first made its switch from min-till to direct drilling, the existing set of 12m rolls that had previously always worked perfectly for him were found wanting. “Running on stubbles they simply weren’t heavy enough to create enough down-force to have a positive consolidation effect,” says Nathan. “We needed to take a step up in this critical part of the operation.” But he soon found that the options for bigger, heavier rolls that fitted the farm’s 36m tramlining system were limited. Nathan explains: “As we’re direct drilling, we wanted to limit the number of passes we make and certainly stick with our existing wheelings. “A true controlled-traffic regime isn’t really practical for us but, with a 9m drill, 9m combine header and 36m sprayer, it made sense for our new rolls to be 18m.” Having reviewed all the various options, Nathan plumped for Opico’s HE-VA King-Roller, since it fitted the bill perfectly and offered the best value for money. “Weighing in at 14t, the HE-VA rolls looked to be solidly built and cleverly engineered in the way they fold and in the way that weight is distributed across the full width. “By having each of the five sections hung from a central pivot mounting, they can accurately follow contours. At the same time, the way the hydraulics are plumbed means down-force is always even across the full working width.” HE-VA’s Special Active Transfer system ensures that each of the KingRoller’s five gangs adapt to contours and follow the ground as faithfully as possible, he explains. The entire hydraulic circuit is linked to two gas accumulators and a pressure gauge, allowing the operator to set the amount of weight transferred onto the outer wings to maintain an even pressure across the full working width. The accumulators act as an oil

buffer when the rolls are travelling across uneven ground, taking up and releasing oil as the rams extend and retract, but maintaining an even pressure all the while and making the most of weight from the big roller’s hefty main frame and chassis. Despite its size, however, moving from field to field is not an issue. Nathan says: “The way the rolls fold is clever and relatively quick – so moving them isn’t a chore. They travel remarkably well given their weight.” Now in its second season at Manor Farm, the King-Roller has certainly

lived up to expectations, especially when it comes to work rates. “With such a wide wingspan we can travel at the right speed to do a decent job – generally about 8kph (5mph) – and we can still comfortably cover 120ha (300 acres) a day. “At that pace, our 160hp Valtra can easily keep pace, even on our steep banks, and we have the output to be able to roll everything twice. That

way we’re ensuring good seed-to-soil contact and moisture conservation,” says Nathan. “More importantly, we make the ground as inhospitable to slugs as possible. “With plenty of problem grass weeds to contend with too, we’re also generating a much better weed flush, which means we achieve a better level of control,” he adds ■

Row-crop tyres are just the fit for Cornish grower The latest Mitas AC85 highperformance row-crop tyres have been fitted to a fleet of 15 new Claas Arion tractors being supplied to Southern England Farms Ltd, a Cornish vegetable grower and packer, by the Redruth branch of Hambly’s, the longest-established Claas dealer in the south west. The standard factory-fitted tyres on the 4-cylinder 145hp Claas Arion 520 and 6-cylinder 156hp Claas Arion 620 tractors have been replaced with Mitas AC85-series row-crop tyres supplied and fitted by Geoffrey Harris Tyres in Liskeard, one of the largest tyre distributors in Cornwall. This is the second major fleet order which Hambly’s has supplied to Southern England Farms where the standard factory-fit tyres have been replaced by Mitas row-crop tyres prior

to the tractors being delivered. Two years ago, Geoffrey Harris Tyres fitted replacement Mitas row-crop tyres to 13 new Claas Arion 610C tractors for Southern England Farms, which produces 1,620ha (4,000) acres of vegetables. A year-round supplier of locally-produced produce such as broccoli, cabbage, cauliflower, courgettes and spring greens to major UK supermarkets and processors, the company operates a significant number of Claas Arion tractors on Mitas row-crop tyres, which meet their specialist requirements for working in high-value vegetable crops as well as covering considerable distances on the road. “We harvest across a wide geographic area throughout Cornwall, from Lands End up to Wadebridge, a distance of almost 60 miles,” states

Southern England Farms manager Gordon Stokes. “Our tractors operate for approximately 10 hours a day and on average spend three hours a day, six days a week on the road. Despite this, the Mitas row-crop tyres which we fitted to our last batch of Claas tractors to maximise clearance and avoid damage to the crops, lasted the life of the 2-year contract. During that time they were rotated to even out the wear and maximise tyre life, but nevertheless that was impressive.” Hambly’s’ Redruth branch and west Cornwall sales representative, Richard Berryman, adds: “Hambly’s has a long-standing relationship with Geoffrey Harris Tyres, so we were confident in their recommendation to specify Mitas row-crop tyres on the original Class Arion models based on their excellent value for money

Mitas AC85 high-performance row-crop tyres have been fitted to a fleet of 15 new Claas Arion tractors.

and suitability for the intended application. When these tractors were replaced after two years and 4,000 hours we re-fitted the original standard wheels and tyres which we had stored for the customer during that period to maximise re-sale ■ values.”

A Life on the Land This month we hear from a fourth generation Kent farmer who, as well as farming an arable acreage, has been producing hops for brewing on his farm for nearly 70 years, and he’s still working daily. Dominic Kilburn writes. Name: Tony Redsell (aged 82) Location: Parsonage Farm, Boughton, near Faversham, Kent.

hops to grow up. We used to string them to a height of 13ft but now it’s more like 16ft, and no longer on stilts.

Age when you first started work? I am the 4th generation of my family to have farmed here. I first started work proper on the farm in the summer of 1948, aged 15. My father died in 1960 and I’ve been running the farm ever since. I’ve also had a spell in the army along the way.

How many people worked on the farm in those days? We had about 20 permanent staff back then – wire work, cutting spent vines, carting manure and spreading it, and ploughing the alleys between the hops were some of the main jobs that needed attending to on a daily basis. When it came to the hop harvest in September, it would involve literally hundreds of additional London east end casual staff to pick up to 200 baskets of hops. Typically, one basket would have had a whole family assigned to filling it. A basket full was a tally of six bushels - a strong basket would pick up to five tallies per day.

Tell us about the farm In 1948 we had 350 acres of which 250 acres were tenanted. Back then we grew fruit (including strawberries, cherries and some apples), hops and a little arable, including wheat. Cauliflower and spring greens were also grown for the Covent Garden and London markets. Today, 2,400 acres are farmed inhand, of which 750 acres are tenanted from St John’s College, Cambridge. Our arable acreage includes 1,000 acres of wheat, 110 acres of hops, 100 acres of onions and a mixture of break crops including oilseed rape and peas. What were the first jobs you remember doing as a 15 year old? When I started work on the farm I did all the usual jobs that boys had to do like handling the horses when strawberry shimming (cultivating between the rows of strawberry plants); forking dung and carting it to the hop garden; stooking sheaves of wheat after the binder had done its work prior to threshing. One of the more unusual tasks was ‘stilt stringing’ – standing on stilts to tie string to the top wires for the

What about staff numbers today? Now we have about 80 Eastern European workers harvesting hops in September and would need probably double the number of baskets. In terms of permanent staff, we have eight people across two farms and I am still working every day! What machinery was on the farm when you began work? When I was 15 we were on the cusp between horses and tractors. Fordsons were the main tractor we used and a D2 crawler did the heavy work. We had a very primitive sprayer and applied a ‘Bordeaux mixture’ of copper sulphate and hydrated lime to the hops as a fungicide, and nicotine as an insecticide. The latter only

pTony Redsell ‘bird minding’ among the p cherry trees on his farm in 1962, with his dog, Bruno, by his side. t Tony checking the hops in 1970.

worked on a hot day! I got nicotine poisoning one day and was sent to the doctor. He said that I should sweat it out and so I was put back to work immediately! What has been the standout technological development that you’ve seen over the years? Crop protection materials have improved considerably. Resistance to products in those days was commonplace, and built up very quickly. It seemed like we needed new products every three or four years because of problems with resistance. Modern chemicals are so much more reliable, although scarce for minor crops. Tell us about your hops We grow East Kent Goldings and Fuggle varieties, and about 40 per cent of our crop is destined for the US brewing market each year where the Craft Brewers brew with English and German aroma hops. East Kent Goldings is a unique variety of British hop used in brewing and has been registered as a protected designation of origin (PDO). About 55 per cent of English produced hops are grown in the south east nowadays and the remainder in the West Midland counties.

PIN POINT PRECISION.

How has selling hops changed over the years? Marketing-wise things have changed drastically (and for the better!). The growing of hops used to be controlled by the Hops Marketing Board and there was a huge gap between the farm gate and the end customer – the brewer. Now, like arable crops, there’s simply a trader in-between and a brewer likes to know the grower who has supplied the hops he’s using, and vice versa. Hops used to be taken from the farm to London warehouses where a Factor laid out samples to be graded and valued under natural light by a merchant and the commercial manager of the Hops Board. Depending on how much smog was around they sometimes had to wait to determine the quality and value, and so they went off to have a few drinks. How many drinks they had and when the smog finally lifted dictated when business could be done, but it sometimes took a very long time! As for the future I’m particularly bullish about English hops for the American market where they are in high demand. In addition, hops have a complex chemical structure and I don’t think this has been fully explored as yet and, potentially; it could open up new markets for the crop. ■

Resolving a weighty issue Having successfully solved one particular Cambridgeshire farm’s front press problem, Cousins of Emneth has chosen to adopt the modification as standard for all its new front coil presses. Most of Babraham Farms’ 600 hectares (1,500 acres) benefits from pressing, following either ploughing or min till. Farm manager Michael Goody’s problems began last year when he took delivery of a 6m front press with paddles. Despite having equipped his tractor with a new 2.8t front linkage, efforts to lift the ‘2.5t’ press were unsuccessful. “The tractor just grunted,” says Michael.

The supplier’s suggestion was to remove the front paddles, but that was unacceptable to Michael as it would fundamentally compromise the operation of the press. At this point he decided to check exactly what his front linkage was up against – to discover the press weighed in at 3.5t. He therefore approached Cousins of Emneth’s John Cousins, who agreed to take up the challenge. However, when the company’s standard 6m folding coil press with front paddles was delivered, it also proved to be too heavy. It was duly returned to Cousins’ factory where its engineers went to

work, reducing the overall depth of the assembly by taking 175mm out of the main frame depth and shortening the linkage arms on Michael Goody with the Cousins press. the headstock, the same width as my following seed resulting in a true 2.5t, closer-coupled drill makes accurate drilling very easy,” arrangement. he adds. Michael says: “Cousins carried out Allowing another farm to try the the modifications at no cost to me, revised press on its Fendt tractor led and you can’t ask for more than that!” to a second sale in quick succession, Delighted with the results, he says and now the close-coupled design the key is to use the press for levelling, features on all Cousin’s new front coil just touching but not pushing the soil. presses. ■ “I find that having the front press

Show director calls for industry backing The 2015 Suffolk Show, which opens its gates on May 27 for the annual two day family celebration of food, farming and life in Suffolk, is a chance for the industry to make the most of its regional shop window, says Show director and Suffolk arable farmer Bill Baker.

We are hearing that some major manufacturers may be pulling out of the national show scene and refocusing their support on county shows. My experience is that the regional show is where new introductions really do lead to business. People often do not

credit introductions with sales, but they do translate. The way we have historically done business is changing, it is now happening in a different way. Technological advances in machinery demand a different skillset and new calibre of operator who wants to be involved in influencing key purchasing decisions. Intelligent and advanced, they want to speak to the manufacturer about aspects of performance, and I welcome this. Increasingly through contact at the Show more agriculturally based companies, be they products or services, are participating in the Association’s other educational initiatives and directly strengthening relationships that started with meetings on their tradestands.

on year. More recently it has become involved with our education projects. It backed the new Farm Discovery Zone (FDZ); a hands-on experience of food and farming by sector introduced at last year’s Show, appreciating the value of connecting with the local community. The theme for launch year was ‘Cereals’ and Claas’ loan of a Lexion combine harvester also proved a great hit with the public. The company also generously invited the winning school to the Claas UK headquarters. Realising the educational and potential recruitment benefits, it will bring a Jaguar forager harvester and a purpose-built fibreglass model

cow which has been customised to demonstrate the process of biogas production – the conversion of feedstuff to energy – in keeping with this year’s theme: Agriculture – supplying your energy.

to talk to young people who may not have any experience of the fantastic career opportunities it offers. Other suppliers might also consider the potential benefits of this involvement in subsequent years. I for one feel more inclined to tailor my business purchasing decisions around suppliers that are loyal to the Show and trying to assist us in raising the profile and importance of the industry. Keen to expand his 25-year old business into Suffolk, Ardleigh based agricultural contractor Phil Liverton recognised the Show was the go-to place for his potential customers, so booked a tradestand for the first time in 2014. The move proved highly successful. Phil commented: “We made some good introductions that have led to new business and as a bonus

recruited two new employees”. Phil has doubled the size of his stand for 2015 and plans to use the Show to make an announcement about the business. The added benefit of contact with the Association also led to his involvement in a working party where his stump grinder proved vital to work on the Trinity Park clearing day. Likewise OJ Neil contracting who has exhibited his specialist agricultural and groundwork contracting and machinery hire services at the Show for the past six years. Owner Olly Neil commented that he attends for three reasons; first to catch up and strengthen relationships with existing customers; it is a good place to develop new business within the farming community and he likes to support the agricultural side of the Show. ■

A former President of the Suffolk Agricultural Association, Stephen Cobbald, has established a new competition to take place at this year’s Suffolk Show, in memory of his daughter Charlotte who died last summer, aged 17. The Young Farmers’ Club (YFC) Stockpersons’ Competition is open to all young farmers groups in Suffolk and North Essex, and is a tribute to Charlotte’s world of farming; showing her sheep and sheepdogs and immersing herself in the activities of the young farmers’ clubs. “It is the kind of competition that Charlotte herself would have loved to have entered and combines all her passions,” said Stephen from his farm in Acton, Suffolk. As well as showing, the competition comprises three stages that will test all aspects of knowledge including Stock Judging, Livestock Knowledge and Stock Handling. Young Farmers will hold preliminary rounds within their clubs to decide which member represents them in the competition to be held from 8.30am on Thursday May 28 at the Suffolk Show. The winners will be announced during the Grand Parade on the Thursday and the winning club will receive £300 and the runner up £150. The new competition has been launched in memory of Suffolk Young Farmer, Charlotte Cobbald. 05R65B

Potatoes

Power on the Land

High capacity handling with care Gentle handling is among the top priorities for companies that make potato handling equipment, but they also have to provide increased throughputs as more of the crop is produced by largescale specialist growers. Mike Williams writes.

total emptying. It is also designed to provide gentle handling, having a full width padded hopper and a wide discharge belt with a variable working speed. The tipping mechanism uses electric power instead of a hydraulic system, and this can reduce costs as energy is consumed only when the tipping mechanism is actually working, and oil contamination risks are eliminated. Box sizes up to 5t capacity can be used and the work rate is up to 35 cycles/hr with the side ejection version, and 30 cycles/hr with upward ejection.

Wide range

CSB 2600 series reception hopper from AVR with 18.5m3 capacity.

Damage reduction has always been a priority for potato equipment manufacturers, but its importance has increased as quality standards are pushed up by big company buyers. Designing equipment to handle bigger volumes of potatoes while reducing damage risks is a major challenge for the design engineers. Reception hoppers are an example of the handling trends, with capacities increasing to keep pace with the flow of potatoes arriving from high output harvesters. The AVR range of potato handling equipment includes a wide choice of conveyors and in-store elevators and there are also three models in the CSB 2600 range of reception hoppers. Capacities are 13.0, 18.5 and 25.0m3 and they all have a 3.3m drive-in width and are equipped with seven cleaning rollers. The bottom conveyor speed adjusts from 0.4–4.4m/minute and the soil and potato conveyors are both 0.8m wide.

Grimme is best known as a harvester manufacturer, but it also offers handling equipment including reception hoppers with capacities from 6–25m3. There is also a tandem system using a TH824 hopper delivering into an RH24-60 or RH24-70 reception hopper to provide up to 49m3 total holding capacity. The extra capacity, says Grimme, reduces the risk of harvesting hold-ups caused by transport vehicles waiting to unload. The Grimme range also includes fully automatic box fillers suitable for different sized boxes. Features include a hydraulically adjusted gooseneck to minimise the drop height into the box and the infinitely adjustable belt speed ensures optimum crop flow rates. One of the features of the patented Rotatip box tipping machine developed by the Haith Group is the fact that the rotary tipping action can invert the box completely to achieve

Being the distributor for the Bijlsma Hercules equipment range from Holland gives Agrimech a wide range of potato handling machinery, including a comprehensive list of box handlers. An unusual feature of the KV 4500 machine is that it can be used for filling boxes or big bags, offering a 45tph work rate for box filling and up to 25tph working with bags. The design includes an automatic release system for working with bags, and for boxes the discharge head constantly moves to and fro to place the potatoes in layers and to avoid forming soil pockets in the boxes. The machine operates with an automatic filling cycle for pairs of boxes and the standard specification includes touchscreen controls plus weighing equipment. Lincolnshire-based Terry Johnson has been making Swift-Lift elevators since 1993. They are used for a wide range of agricultural and industrial products and the current Extendo 600 and 900 series are a popular choice for loading potatoes into store or bulk transport. Both can be equipped with a radio control option, and a power transmission is also available to simplify manoeuvring the unit

forwards or backwards. The Extendo 900 has a 90cm belt width for high outputs, but the belt is made of soft rubber and has 25mm cleats to minimise damage risks. The optional Safedown attachment is also designed for damage reduction, reducing the drop height when loading potatoes into boxes or bulk transport. Manufacturing industries rely heavily on robotics, but farming has fewer large scale repetitive operations suitable for automation. Two of the exceptions are robotic milking in grassland areas and loading pallets with bags of potatoes and other produce on arable farms. David Harrison Handling Solutions helped pioneer the use of palletising robots for fresh produce back in 2000, and these are now an important part of the business which covers industrial and port installations as well as farming. They sell Oldenhuis and Prinsen (O&P) robots to meet mainly small to medium capacity requirements, plus the Symach range, and sales manager, Gary Palmer says the potato handling market is still expanding. More growers are switching to palletising robots, partly because of health and safety restrictions on lift heights for manual stacking and also because lifting potato packs by hand is an

unpopular and tiring task. Much of the grading equipment used for potatoes and other root crops relies on screens, and the Soft Screens introduced 15 years ago by the Agri-Web company in Northern Ireland have become a major success story in the UK and worldwide. They are used as both grading and carry-over screens and are made from rubber-coated industrial grade belting that is tough enough to provide wear resistance for a longer working life while the stretch resistance helps to maintain grading accuracy. They produce less noise than traditional wire and plastic screens and the reduced weight makes them easier to handle.

Webs are a long established method for cleaning and moving root crops in field equipment and in the packhouse, but in spite of their long history the technology of web design is still advancing. One of the recent developments is Enduroloc, a high strength joining device for agricultural machinery webs. Enduroloc was developed by Griff Chains, a UK based company that has made wearing parts for farm equipment for more than 100 years. Benefits claimed for the Enduroloc design, which was introduced in 2011, include increased durability to reduce the downtime lost for conventional joiner replacement, and they are suitable for a wide range of applications including destoning. ■

It’s well known that potatoes should be dried immediately after harvest to deny rot pathogens of the conditions they need to grow. Bag Ventilated fabric allows air flow through potato bulk bags. Supplies recommends that the drying process should not be delayed and that potatoes be placed within a controlled environment of not more than 80C After drying, good ventilation is needed to avoid the build-up of carbon dioxide and thereby discourage the sprouting process. This is equally true when it comes to transporting potatoes, the company insists. Its ventilated bulk bags, therefore, are designed to allow air flow and, hence, reduce carbon dioxide build-up. First, its traditional 26-stripe ventilated fabric allows about 45 per cent air flow through the bag. And now it has developed a bulk bag with two sides made from a fine, mosquito mesh-type fabric, which significantly increases the airflow through the fabric and into the bag – further reducing the amount of sprouting. Bags are manufactured to the required safety specifications and are supplied with skirt tops and discharge spouts, if required.

Potatoes

Smarter packhouse reﬁts If your packhouse is in need of a refit, it doesn’t help that 2015 is unlikely to be a great year for the potato crop. But David Harrison Handling Solutions believes that it may have the answer. The company’s Gary Palmer says: “While full refits with new kit might be viable when market prices are good, more difficult times demand a smarter approach. “We’ve seen many ups and downs in the market over the 40 years since David Harrison started his potato machinery business near Ely. “And it’s when budgets are tight that our phones become busy with customers who know that, besides selling new machinery, we’re actively buying and refurbishing good used kit.”

Cool or cure

Large rotating louvres designed and manufactured by Octagon Products were part of the Air-Mix solutions it created for two old potato refrigeration systems belonging to a Yorkshire-based seed potato producer. The large openings for recirculation and fresh air intake on

This, Gary says, can trim up to 50 per cent of the cost of a refit. He adds: “Typically, an existing grading/bagging line in need of extension or general updating will comprise a mix of conveyors or specialist weighing/bagging kit plus newer items such as box tippers or screens. “In this case we can check and refurbish the latter and replace the older kit with either new or rebuilt kit from our stock. “The result is a successful mix of new and rebuilt or refurbished machinery to meet future needs – but with serious saving on investment.” For instance, the Tong Peal Caretaker Classic pictured with Gary has been stripped and re-sprayed. Its

belts have been replaced and pollution control upgraded. It’s been completely re-wired and fitted with axle and wheels. Another current example of the company’s work is an O&P computerised palletiser. Despite handling many thousands of bags over its 10-year life, it’s now undergoing complete refurbishment. Either of these two units could save about 40 per cent on the price of a new machine, says Gary. Besides building its own conveyors and elevators, Harrisons enjoys good relations with major machinery manufacturers – often buying popular units at attractive prices in quieter periods of production and passing on the benefit to its customers.

The company is UK agent for Symach Palletisers, O&P Palletisers, Propak bagger weighers and The Sack Filling Company’s stitching and bagging lines. It offers a full planning and costing service. ■

the old refrigeration plant needed a different approach to provide fresh air for curing, and air-mix for cooling. Octagon can now supply rolling louvres to rotate about the vertical or horizontal axis. Single openings up to 200 x 125cm, either vertical or horizontal, can be sealed with a

single plastic-coated quality plywood door. The 16swg Zintec steel is powdercoated before assembly, while a linear motor provides the energy to position the blade. For the inlet and exhaust louvres, galvanised hoods can be supplied to suit the opening, the company says.

Potatoes

Natural refrigerants come in from the cold When choosing new refrigerated storage equipment, it’s better to go for an alternative to HFCs before they become even more of an issue. While it may not always be the easiest thing to do from a commercial standpoint, in the long run it’s better financially to futureproof a system this way. So says JD Cooling, a specialist in refrigeration storage for the produce sector, designing and installing systems ranging from long-term storage for seed, process or pre-pack potatoes through to facilities for warming stored product prior to grading and washing or hydro-cooling high-value salad crops. With CFCs now banned and their hybrid forms being phased out, and with new regulations coming into force on HFCs, the company is encouraging its clients to use natural primary refrigerants such as ammonia and propane to cool an antifreeze solution which forms a benign fluid for use as a

secondary refrigerant. Recent projects demonstrate the scale of JD Cooling’s operations, including two of about £500,000 each involving new systems with secondary glycol technology being installed at the 4,000ha (10,000 acre) Elveden Estate in Norfolk and at one of the UK’s leading potato producers, P J Lee & Sons in Cambridgeshire. JD Cooling’s John Dye says: “More and more of our clients are aware of the potential of natural solutions to save them money in the longer term and are prepared to view their investment over a five-year period rather than merely looking at the bottom line with the initial investment. “It’s always been our policy to offer our clients cuttingedge technology. Therefore the evolution of natural refrigerants is an area where we must continue to push the boundaries to deliver these systems.”

Potato store for Cereals host Crop storage engineering firm Bennett & Co is proud to have completed a 4,000t refrigerated potato box store at the host farm for this year’s Cereals event. The brief from the private farming company Patrick Dean was to build a store with four storage areas within the existing farmyard near Lincoln as part of its significant potato growing enterprise. Ware and seed crops are stored in separate areas, and there’s a covered loading and unloading area, while a large roof area provides additional photovoltaic panel capacity to augment the new large electricity supply to the site. Refrigeration, ventilation and control equipment has been provided by Welvent, which has supplied such equipment to the client for a number of years. The building itself was supplied by AC Bacon Engineering, with ground work and concrete floor by local contractor K&S Allbones Civil Engineers. Bennett & Co designed the store, obtaining the planning consent and project-managing the construction.

Storage advice you can trust “So when you have a storage problem you could be adding to it,” he stresses. If an inverter is added to the mix then store operators will get a reduction in energy used by running fans slower, continues Ray. “It’s simple to say that running a fan at 60 per cent can give a massive 78 per cent reduction in energy, when adjusted for output this equates to 38 per cent true saving, and remember you only get 60 per cent of what the fan supplies at full speed, full load and at the time of season, sometimes that is just not enough.” He points out that, recently, his

So you think you are getting the best in potato storage with high airflow fans and inverters? This may not necessarily be the case, warns Ray Andrews (right) managing director of specialist potato storage company Crop Systems Ltd. High airflow comes with a caveat, as it needs a corresponding system to deliver it correctly, he advises. “Get it wrong and you could be worse off. Putting high airflow into a restricted system can be a recipe for disaster, simple things like shutting down half of your laterals, quadruples the pressure in the system.

company measured a modern store designed for 50 cfm (cubic feet per minute airflow per tonne) but it actually tested out at 35cfm. “The system was incorrectly designed and the fans were unable to supply air at the correct pressure and the crop was lost,” he says. “Finding this out after the event is too late to do anything about it,” adds Ray. Where storage systems are not working efficiently, his advice is not to blame problems on factors such as the weather, harvesting conditions or varieties, but take a good look at the system that is being operated. “Good storage doesn’t cost more. Whether it

is a new store or and simple upgrade, investing in a well-designed system will result in value for money, and money that is spent wisely.” He concludes: “When considering different systems, growers should ask themselves; if it sounds cheap and it’s going to ‘save’ them a lot of money, what’s the catch? “They need to know exactly what they are getting, not what they think they are getting. Losing money over the lifetime of the store can easily cost more than the store itself. “Get in touch with Crop Systems for good, honest, technical advice about potato storage systems and take control of your crop.” ■

Tried-and-tested storage designs After all the effort growers invest in their crops, having a building that works reliably for them and for their business is vital. The need to maximise returns is greater than ever – and that includes maintaining crops in top condition. That’s the view of Browns of Wem, which claims to have the necessary expertise essential to help

achieve optimal storage for farm produce. Its tried-and-tested practical designs for specialist potato harvest-to-storage schemes include multi-span insulated buildings for boxed or loose potatoes and multipurpose steel-framed buildings that can also be used to store other crops and machinery.

A family success As Tong Peal Engineering celebrates its 85th anniversary, Charles Tong reflects on the history of the family business that began life as an ironmongers shop in Spilsby, run by his grandfather, father and uncle. What began as a diversification – making simple equipment for local farmers – soon became independent from the ironmongers. Under Charles’ influence, the 1980s was a further period of expansion. He realised that increased specialisation in potato production plus changes in the way the crop was marketed were creating demand for more sophisticated machinery with bigger capacities.

This resulted in the launch of the Caretaker mobile grader – still one of the company’s best-selling machines – developed to offer the extra throughput required by packhouses to meet the demands of supermarkets and processors for a higher specification with minimal damage. The newly-launched Caretaker model for 2015 incorporates the latest technology and new features including the new second-generation EasyClean II separator and advanced HMI touch-screen Pro-Series control. Tong Peal’s agricultural products have diversified significantly and now include machines for grading, handling, washing, polishing,

weighing, tipping, filling and conveying a wide variety of crops. The company has also expanded into the waste management market, providing conveying and sorting equipment for major recycling customers. Now the UK’s leading designer and manufacturer of grading and handling equipment for the vegetable industry, Tong Peal has an annual turnover of about £13 million, exports to more than 20 countries and employs more than 140 people. Charles says: “I’m extremely proud that Tong Peal has reached this landmark anniversary. Our investment in research and development

and team of expert engineers has allowed us to create market-leading equipment that incorporates the latest technology to ensure our products improve efficiency and throughput for our customers. “We have many loyal customers and generations of families who have come to Tong Peal with all their equipment needs, which is testimony to the high-quality products and customer service we provide.” Later this year, Charles’ son Edward will be taking over as managing director. Edward joined the company in 2003, helping to lead the expansion of the company in 2004 with the takeover of Peal Engineering. ■

Highly-efﬁcient hybrid refrigeration The newly-introduced energyefficient hybrid packaged potato store refrigeration units from Farm Electronics are cost effective, not only in terms of purchase price but also long-term running costs. So says the Grantham-based specialist crop storage engineer, which has selected the refrigerant R410A for the new range, since it offers a better Energy Efficiency Ratio than R22 or R407C.

The units use Bitzer Orbit scroll compressors, which are designed for R410A and have a very low power requirement. They are fitted as standard with soft start, with inverter speed control an option that ensures a low start-up load and reduced running costs. Seven models in the range suit potato stores from 300–1,800t. All can be fitted with motorised louvers to allow ambient ventilation when outside temperatures permit,

controlled by the Cropscan 16MC4 temperature controller. This optimises the use of cold ambient air, mixing it with warm internal air when required, to reduce store running costs – and making the unit a truly hybrid ambient/ refrigerated packaged one. These fully-packaged coolers can be installed simply without the need for the additional plant room or external equipment that is so often associated with traditional refrigerated systems.

Mapping, the easy route The benefits of yield mapping are increasingly being applied to the potato, beetroot, parsnip and onion crop – anything, in fact, that travels over a conveyor or web. With SoilEssentials’ EssentialsRootYield root crop yield monitor in-field crop performance variability information can be collected, based on the old adage ‘if you can’t measure it, you can’t manage it’. The monitor measures crop yield once a second, saving the results in a text file that can be mapped

in industry-standard mapping software. The resulting yield maps can then be used to analyse the reasons why some areas perform better than others, helping to shape future agronomic decisions. With RootYield, it’s easy for growers and agronomists to differentiate between varieties, tillage methods and fertiliser regimes, for example, helping them to improve productivity and profitability and/or benefit the environment. RootYield has been developed

over the past three years in an ongoing partnership with Grimme UK and Staffordshire-based potato grower James Daw. SoilEssentials managing director Jim Wilson says: “Having a global company such as Grimme support us every step of the way is a huge compliment when trying to bring our new products to the market. And James is a fantastic advocate and keen pilot for the technology.” Grimme UK head of service Russell Button adds: “We find the demand for yield monitoring is

ever-increasing within the Grimme product range. “As the root crop industry enters new and challenging times, it’s never been so important to understand the crops being grown. By using these proven technologies, we now have the ability to gain this information straight from the Grimme harvester.” Most of the company’s harvesters can be retro-fitted with the monitoring equipment, making it a straightforward decision for existing users to move forward with the technology.

Spreading the load The Vervaet brand is well-known within the sugar beet industry as one of the leading manufacturers of self-propelled harvesters, but its product range also includes a specialist low ground pressure tool carrier which, equipped with a high capacity spreader body, offers high outputs and precise application. David Williams reports. The Hydro Trike has found considerable success since it was introduced to the mainland European market in 1990 and more than 600 machines are working for contractors and on large farms, most with tanker bodies used for slurry injection. It has a 465hp DAF engine and a selection of interchangeable bodies available to fit to the chassis, with applications including slurry spreading, chalk spreading and in-field transport. The tricycle design spreads the weight evenly across the machine’s width but, on the XL version, an additional centre axle shares the load and extends out beyond the standard wheels to spread the weight over a greater surface area. The centre axle has active steering and the front single wheel is powered, which allows it to be turned to 90 degrees, for a very tight turning circle without creating

ridges at the headlands. The three main wheels all have on-the-move pressure adjustment allowing ground pressure to be optimised for the load and the centre axle has fixed tyre pressures, but automatic working pressure adjustment is provided by the same double-acting rams which lift the axle while it is being extended or retracted. The hydrostatic transmission provides infinite travel speed adjustment and there are two ranges; work and transport, the high speed range giving 40kph capability. Growing demand for high capacity low ground pressure machines for application of digestate has meant the Vervaet machine has attracted considerable interest in recent years and Vervaet has worked with spreader manufacturer Panien to develop a spreader body specifically for the

The driven front wheel and steering centre axle allow the spreader to turn almost within its own length so the operator can turn back against the previous bout, so less time is wasted on headlands.

The centre axle is lifted and lowered by a double-acting hydraulic ram. In work mode the centre axle works in conjunction with the large front and rear tyres and an automatic pressure control system to distribute weight equally.

developing the body together, the two manufacturers have ensured maximum performance, from the capacity and distribution of weight, to its control systems and spread performance,” explained UK importer Jeremy Riley’s Vervaet product specialist Henry Baker. Capacity is 20m3 and weigh cells on each corner monitor the load. A

hydraulic rear door combined with a conveyor floor adjusts spread rate and the material is fed through two banks of shredders to the twin spreading discs below. The demonstration included application of digestate from a local AD plant as well as long-strawed farmyard manure and the quality of spread achieved while applying both products was very good. The digestate was clean and easy to apply, and ideally suited to the twin-disc system resulting in a fine layer across the field. The amount of straw in the manure made it more of a challenge, especially when combined with a large amount of soil and stones scooped up while clearing the last of the heap from the field but the beaters shredded the straw thoroughly and the result was an impressively fine spread quality and even application. A reversible floor is standard, making it easy to clear blockages when spreading difficult materials at high rates and allowing operators to confidently optimise performance in all conditions. Spread rate and width is

controlled automatically using a touch-screen developed specially by the manufacturer. To set the application rate, the operator simply selects the density of the material and the desired rate and the machine does the rest. An additional feature is boundaryspreading mode in which the spread width is automatically reduced to match the work area. The spreader’s ability to handle products from the fine digestate to the demanding manure means it will fulfil multiple roles, and Vervaet product specialist Jonathan Hoekman explained that tests spreading chalk products have also been successful, and will ensure contractors can maximise use of the machine throughout the year. Just 10 of the Hydro Trike spreader combinations have been built so far and all have been working in test environments, mainly in France. The demonstration attended by Farmers Guide was one of several arranged in late March to allow potential UK users to see the machine at work, during a one-week visit before returning to Holland to continue its testing. Henry commented that the opportunity to see it in action had been greeted enthusiastically by potential users.

“There is a significant demand for a professional specification applicator, particularly for application of digestate and slurry from AD plants as well as for chalk and manure,” he explained. “The Terragator was a traditional solution for many years but as this machine is no longer available, users are looking at alternatives. Our product provides high capacity, ease of use, accuracy of application and high travel speeds between sites and we expect it to sell in large numbers. “We already support Vervaet harvesters nationwide, but are gearing up in terms of parts stock and engineer training to make sure we can offer the same high standard of service for the Hydro Trike. "The spreaders will be available to purchase during 2016 and customer feedback suggests that they will be ideally-suited to UK use,” he added. ■

Slug-busting stubble managment

Working at up to 40 acres per hour, the Claydon straw harrow provides fast, effective control of weeds and slugs.

Billed as “a key part of any effective stubble management approach” and “essential” in any direct drilling or min-till situation, the Claydon straw harrow can also be valuable where conventional establishment techniques are used. Using it to lightly cultivate the stubble surface shakes out weed and volunteer seeds into moist soil, says Claydon. Weed seeds are kept in the top 30mm of soil and, with the fine tilth created, their germination is quick and even and – critically – the maximum amount of moisture is retained in the soil. The technique is also said to provide a very effective method of greatly reducing slug populations. By levelling straw residues, the Claydon straw harrow ensures that there are no damp, chaff-covered areas that tend to provide harbour for the pest. Mixing and exposing damp chaff and lying straw to sunlight also disturbs slugs’ nests, dries their eggs and subsequently reduces slug activity on the surface. Passing over oilseed rape stubbles every two weeks, for example, should

also knock out volunteer oilseed rape plants at the cotyledon stage, limiting this attractive food source for slugs. Claydon straw harrows incorporate vibrating tines that engage the ground every 6cm – the working angle being hydraulically adjusted to suit field conditions to produce an optimum tilth. Operating at up to 25kph, they are available in 3, 7.5 and 15m working widths, with 50, 120 and 240 tines, needing 80hp, 150hp and 200hp and covering 10, 20 and 40 acres per hour respectively. The largest version is trailed. They have been designed to work in conjunction with the patented Claydon crop establishment system, which allows many different types of crop to be established directly into stubble, min-tilled or fully-cultivated soils. This system is said to have become the most sustainable one-pass seeding technique in Europe and can be used year-on-year to achieve above-average yields while avoiding unnecessary and expensive precultivations. ■

Best combination for a successful chit In the battle against black-grass, the challenge is to achieve a good chit post harvest to increase the effectiveness of glyphosate prior to planting a winter cereal, says Danish machinery manufacturer Dal-Bo. Ideally the process should begin as soon as the combine harvester leaves the field, while there is still a hint of a microclimate at the base of the stubble that will hasten germination, it states. However, in a dry autumn this is very difficult to achieve and, in some cases, resorting to a spring crop is the sensible option. To achieve a good chit, it’s important not to invert the black-grass seeds that are on the surface. Instead it should be

mixed with a shallow layer of soil before consolidation, according to Dal-Bo. To accomplish this best combination, it has taken a 6m and 8m MaxiRoll frame and, to the front, has fitted a harrow frame with depth wheels and four rows of 16mm tines that will scratch a shallow seed bed, mixing soil and seed together before consolidating with a roll at the rear. There are various roll options – the standard Cambridge/breaker, crosskill or cross-combi. While the standard Cambridge/breaker is suited to all situations, the preferred option for this approach would be the cross-combi, because of its aggressive ring, the company adds.

The plough – “original and best” Whatever the size of the farm – and whatever the size of the tractor – there’s a Dowdeswell plough to suit, says Ipswich-based Agri-hire. The company offers the full range of Dowdeswell ploughs and presses, with horsepower requirements from 100–600hp, onthe-land or in-the-furrow options and a choice of bodies. And because, as part of its sales package, it offers customers a full demonstration with the farms’ own tractors and drivers, they can be sure

to find the right plough for their particular needs. In one pass with a plough, growers can incorporate all their straw, bury all their black-grass seed and any other trash, and leave their land level, free draining and – with the aid of a press – ready to drill. Agri-hire’s after-sales package includes full on-farm set-up of any new plough, plus a spares and technical help service from staff that have an “unrivalled” knowledge of the Dowdeswell product, it says.

THE CLAYDON SYSTEM DEVELOPED BY FARMERS FOR FARMERS Claydon-drilled after maize

For 13 years, Claydon have proven their machines in over 20 countries in all soil types, climatic conditions and cultivation situations. They have helped customers save tens of thousands of pounds each and every year. The HUGE trash clearance on their drills and harrows means that Claydon customers keep going with no stopping and no blocking. When you buy a tried and tested Claydon product, you can look ahead to years of simple, profitable farming.

Straw Incorporation

A wide range of straw incorporation options Quivogne UK markets a wide range of straw incorporation machines ranging from disc-based models such as the APX-TL, Tinemaster and Pluton, to tined-based models such as the Jupiter, NSL and Saturn. The company says that it offers ‘X’ and ‘V’ form conventional heavy-duty disc harrows up to 10m working widths as well as the Diskator (560mm discs on individual rubber suspension, arms and suspension with integral rear packer) to 12m wide. The mounted Pluton comprises pan busting tines, discs, press and harrow. The staggered tines can be set up to a maximum depth of 400mm and are fitted with shearbolt protection. The 560mm serrated discs are individually suspended on rubber mountings and are arranged in two opposing rows with a

staggered overlap. There is also the choice of over five different packers to best suit conditions, adds the firm. The harrow is an adjustable row of basic levelling tines fitted behind the press to cover any autocast seed. The Pluton range starts at 2.7m working widths (135hp+). The Saturn is a mounted tined cultivator that comprises two rows of opposing curved legs. It has been designed for shallow cultivation use at 250mm deep, points out Quivogne. The shallow curved legs turn the soil in preparation for two rows of wavy discs to chop, mix and level. Work is then finished off by a row of levelling fingers at the rear. Due to the Saturn’s design and build, the tines allow for straight line pulling while also being suitable for the smaller horsepower market (110hp+) and is available from 3–6m

working widths. The company says that it designed the Tinemaster to develop maximum cultivation and incorporation in one pass. It incorporates the ‘X’ shape disc harrow with hydraulically operated auto-reset tines designed to penetrate and break up the field’s pan and reduce water logging. The Tinemaster is also offered with the option of a rear-mounted razor ring press and can also be further enhanced by having an auto casting seeder unit fitted. It is available in 3–6m widths (190hp+).

Trailed machine The Jupiter is a trailed tined cultivator that uses heavy-duty tines up to 300mm deep with the option of wide or narrow feet. This is

followed by a heavy-duty harrow tine to level and finish, and is available in 4–8m working widths. The NSL is a mounted tined cultivator that can feature either two or three rows of leaf spring break-back tines which will operate in all conditions including stony ground up to depths of 260mm, says Quivogne. It uses a standard plough point for ease of use while being a cost effective replacement wearing part. Following the tines is the option of hydraulically operated shatter boards followed by a RollSteel, RollCrest or Guttler press. New for the 2015 season is the introduction of a single row of leading straight discs. Individually mounted on rubber suspension, they are hydraulically adjustable for slicing through excessive trash. ■

The size is right When it comes to straw incorporation, whatever the size of tractor, Köckerling says it has a machine to suit. And, with more than 60 years’ experience of building tillage machinery, the German company claims to “know its business”. Its range starts with the Trio light three-bar mounted cultivator with a power requirement of 100hp and extends to the 14.5m Allrounder profiline, which can work with the biggest tractors available.

The company can offer machines for working at depths from 2–30cm. Built from high-quality steel and components for a long and troublefree working life, they all have generous under-beam clearance as well as large inter-tine clearances to handle even the heaviest of trash conditions. Some of its cultivators are fitted as standard with on-the-move depth adjustment, so that changing soil conditions don’t compromise the quality of work.

Straw Incorporation

Broad range of cultivators Horsch’s broad range of cultivators includes something to suit all the many and varied conditions found across the UK and beyond, falling broadly into tine-only and disc-andtine categories. The company acknowledges that soil type, tractor power and personal preference all have a part to play in machine selection. When it comes to straw incorporation, its Terrano MT and Tiger MT are key machines, providing a choice of frame size and the amount of residue they incorporate. The 2-bar Terrano MT has been specially designed to ‘mix on the top and loosen at the bottom’. Two rows of 52cm rotary discs mix the surface, followed by two rows of TerraGrip

tines with narrow, low-disturbance points that deep loosen to 30cm. Available in 4 and 6m widths, it’s particularly suitable for cultivating heavy soils that need to be loosened deeply, but where harvest residues can only be incorporated in a very shallow way to avoid coarse soil being brought to the surface. The Tiger MT, meanwhile, is a combination of disc harrow and cultivator. In 3.0—7.5m widths, it has a design identical to the Terrano MT except for the first two rows of discs being of larger diameter. Designed to perform well in conditions with long straw and difficult residues, such as maize stubble, it incorporates evenly without blockage. The 68cm discs cut through and

Straw Incorporation

High output with versatility After more than 30 years of establishing crops using min-till techniques, Reg Watkins admits he’s probably used most of the cultivation systems that have fallen in to, and out of, fashion. Until recently he grew about 16ha (400 acres) of potatoes and a sizeable area of sugar beet at Stonehouse Farm near the Gloucestershire/ Herefordshire border. For those crops the land was always ploughed so that, with cereals and oilseed rape being min-tilled between times, the land was ploughed rotationally. But now the plough has retired to the back of the barn and surface cultivation dominates the crop establishment choices. And so it was that Reg – in the market for a machine that could incorporate crop residues and create a firm, level tilth from his farm’s heavy loam soil – took delivery of a Vaderstad Cultus 420 cultivator in early 2014. He says: “I’ve used Vaderstad equipment before – we have a TopDown on the farm that’s been used extensively. I’ve always considered the company’s products

to be well-designed, well-built and robust.” The Cultus 420 is a trailed unit with a 4.2m working width that can be used both as a primary cultivator on stubbles or as a secondary cultivator over plough. Capable of moving the soil down to a depth of 25cm, its four rows of tines are each equipped with spring overload protection designed to release at 450kg. “With a frame clearance of 85cm, there’s plenty of room for the soil to boil up and mix with the surface trash,” says Reg. “It’s the sort of cultivator that needs to be operated at speed for the best results, and that means putting the right tractor in front of it. We use a 250hp DeutzFahr.” Following the bank of tines is a row of rubber-suspension-mounted discs that level the soil and cope well with any stones that might be present. To re-consolidate the cultivated soil and help to reduce moisture loss the final element on the Cultus is a press which, for the Cultus 420, can be specified as an 800mm-diameter rubber unit – the RubberRunner. Reg took this option because, he

says, while it consolidates the soil, it doesn’t do so to excess. “It’s a gentle firming which I feel is what this type of ground needs. I think the metal SteelRunner would have been too aggressive for our ground,” he states. Another advantage of the rubber press is that it can be used when the cultivator is transported along the road. Reg explains: “All we have to do is fold the wings – the outer tines and press – and raise the frame by lowering the press and the front depth wheels. “This gives a transport width of 3m and, when it arrives in the next field, it’s just opened out again.” The Cultus 420’s first job at Stonehouse Farm was to prepare 20ha (50 acres) of ground for forage maize that had been over-wintered with a cover crop. Reg says: “We’d sprayed off the cover crop and then, as suggested, rolled it flat. As a result, the Cultus had a lot of surface crop residue to cope with. But it achieved a very good finish with a single pass into which we sowed the maize. It was an impressive feat.”

Reg Watkins with the Cultus 420.

The machine further enhanced its credentials when it was later used to prepare ground for a late-season second winter wheat crop. Working in less-than-ideal conditions, the cultivator produced an acceptable seedbed that was level, pressed and free from excessive crop residues that would have encouraged slug activity. “Overall, I believe that Vaderstad has produced an effective highoutput cultivator that offers a high degree of versatility. It’s simple, straightforward, no-nonsense appearance belies the ingenuity of its design and robust construction,” concludes Reg. ■

Straw Incorporation

Stubble incorporation and soil consolidation It’s an accepted fact that straw incorporation can help to maintain good soil structure by increasing levels of soil organic matter as well as provide a valuable source of plant nutrients. In order to maximise those benefits it’s important to choose the right cultivation equipment, says Great Plains. The company says that it offers a range of proven products that, in reduced tillage operations, combine a highly effective means of incorporating stubble and consolidating the soil. The X-Press is just one example. This versatile compact disc harrow, available in both mounted and trailed versions, comprises two rows of individually mounted adjustable discs ahead of a rear press roll. One of the key features of the X-Press is the option of fully adjustable disc angling between 9–25 degrees, points out the company. Quick and easy to operate using the handle adjuster provided, this function enables users to vary how aggressively the soil is worked, set-up their machine to suit varying volumes of residue and ensure good

penetration. High angles cut and mix as a primary operation, lower angles chop and consolidate as a secondary operation. For those with more consistent soil types, the X-Press is also available with limited disc angling via three fixed settings, says Great Plains.

Cultivation discs The 500mm diameter Pro-Active cultivation discs are spaced at 250mm on both front and rear gangs, giving a net disc spacing between gangs of 125mm. Their high rotational speed enhances chopping and mixing and achieves a finer seedbed. With a trip-height of 120mm they provide effective protection against stone damage and improved contour following while maintaining a consistent depth at speed. A rotational armoured bearing housing increases protection. For the toughest residue and soil conditions, the SoilRazor disc, with its long-life cutting edge, is available as an alternative to the standard notched disc blade. Another important design feature of the X-Press is the generous amount

p The 3.0m mounted X-Press equipped with an ST Bar, plus optional small seed applicator and following harrow. u A 4.6m trailed X-Press.

of clearance between both gangs of discs and the rear roller to ensure it will operate efficiently even in conditions with very high volumes of trash. The Mounted X-Press is available in working widths from 2.5–4.0m and can be fitted with an ST Bar equipped with a choice of tines. This transforms

BEAVER

the machine into a one-pass cultivator that can restructure the soil, taking out compaction down to a depth of 250mm. An optional small seed applicator and following harrow makes the X-Press a cost-effective choice for oilseed rape and cover crop establishment, adds the business. ■

Straw Incorporation

Heavy and compact disc harrow The Certos heavy compact disc harrow is available in working widths of 4, 5, 6 and 7m.

Changing rotations, with cover and catch crops now becoming more prevalent, as well as maize stubbles leftover from crops supplying AD plants, means that there is an increasing demand to incorporate higher levels of organic matter at a relatively shallow depth, says machinery manufacturer Amazone. The need still exists to minimise any deep-down disturbance that may end up promoting grass weed problems and the new Certos heavy

compact disc harrow, available in working widths of 4, 5, 6 and 7m, comes into the range alongside the existing Catros and the Catros+ compact disc harrows, which are designed with shallower work in mind. The Certos, with its 660mm diameter scalloped discs, staggered with an offset of 350mm, offers an angle of attack of 22 degrees in the first row and 17 degrees in the second to ensure a very aggressive

Philip Ltd

operation, an intensive mixing and a good penetration force into the soil. In this way, even on soils with plenty of surface organic matter, an intensive mixing operation is possible, points out the company. The proven Catros system of maintenance-free disc bearings, oil filled with integrated slide seals, is also used on the Certos but here the dimensions of the bearings, with an outer diameter 130mm, are almost twice as big as those on the Catros. The integrated centre running gear, equipped with 550/45-22.5 or 400/60-22.5 tyres ensures excellent manoeuvrability of the machine, both in the field and on the road, continues Amazone. The position of the running gear guarantees good weight distribution and allows the use of any of the company’s following rollers – this means the most suitable roller depending on the soil conditions can be utilised. When equipped with an air braking system, it is approved for speeds of up to 40kph allowing for quick road transport. The drawbar is

sprung-loaded for increased driver comfort while in work and travel. Depth control is carried out via a combination of the rear consolidation roller and the front guide wheels, and is adjusted hydraulically on-the-move from the tractor seat. An optional Crushboard can run in front of the discs to level ploughing ahead of the cultivation discs. Fitted to the 5m Certos 50012TX model, which will be on show at Cereals next month, will be the new Matrix 650 KW M wedge ring roller with its ultra-large diameter cleated rubber rings that offer a high degree of targeted consolidation and crumbling as well an improved self-driving ability to help reduce the level of horsepower needed in the field. The GreenDrill 500 catch crop seeder box will also feature strongly on the Certos as the machine is ideal for sowing intermediate crops following the combine for encouraging black-grass germination ahead of autumn drilling, as well as helping with ‘greening’ options for cover crops through to the spring, concludes the business. ■

Grassland UK

Grassland in focus at major event From seed to feed, the machinery and processes that contribute to productive grassland systems will once again be showcased at this year’s Grassland UK. More than 8,000 domestic and overseas visitors are expected to attend this triennial event to be held by The Royal Bath and West of England Society at its Shepton Mallet, Somerset, showground on 7th May. First held in 1985, the show has grown to become the “senior” UK grassland event, held in a predominantly livestock region on working farmland, say its organisers. The site, which provides more than 40 hectares (100 acres) of working demonstration plots, was over-seeded by Agrii last year in preparation for the occasion, although it doubles as working farmland with the grass used for silage and grazing in the threeyearly intervals between shows. The influence of the site’s soil on the grass crop will be the focus of Agrii’s SoilQuest precision farming team, which will be cross-referencing data on soil structure, collected using scanning, with physical soil samples to reveal a complete picture of the show site. From such a base, Agrii provides

Mowers

advice on crop nutrition and agronomy, bringing the advanced tools currently used in arable farming to the grassland sector. The GPS mapping of the site was done by students from Wiltshire College Lackham using the very latest technology. As joint show sponsor, with Origin Fertilisers, Agrii will also have trial plots demonstrating weed control and Smartgrass at the show, with its nutrition, seed and consultancy teams in attendance. As well as the working grassland demonstrations, machinery exhibitors will be demonstrating loading and handling equipment using the mown grass in the farm silage clamp. More than 100 trade stands will be showcasing a variety of related products, such as; an extension frame for Mixit lagoon stirrers; Turbo Jet Vari Speed pneumatic and Fan Jet Pro spinning disc grass seeders from Stocks AG; Albutt’s bag filler; Kelvin Cave’s SilaPactor; JFC Manufacturing’s deluxe cow cubicle; and Micron Bio-systems’ crop-specific silage inoculants. Meanwhile, the British Grassland Society will be staging a number of seminars.

An array of new tractors and utility vehicles on show Kubota is keen to demonstrate its latest products to visitors at Grassland UK.

Agricultural machinery specialist, Kubota is exhibiting an array of its new tractors and utility vehicles at this year’s Grassland UK show including special editions of its new RTV-X900 and M135GX-II tractor with designs and features that have been added especially for visitors attending the one-day event, says the manufacturer. A series of new product

launches has already taken place for Kubota in 2015 and the company says that it is keen to demonstrate its latest products to visitors, including its M100GX–II, which is powered by advanced turbo charged 4-cylinder Kubota CRS diesel engines to provide greater power and efficiency when carrying out tasks on farms. The new M135GX-II Series

tractor is perfect for handling the most demanding of agricultural jobs; incorporating PTO control and Intelli-Shift 8 transmission for improved functionality, points out the business. Kubota’s popular RTV-X900 will appear noticeably different to visitors at the event. The new model was launched last year incorporating all of the rugged build quality of its predecessor alongside new features such as a 21.6hp, 3-cylinder liquid cooled diesel engine for improved convenience and driveability. Kubota’s line-up also includes the 50hp MK5000, targeted at those working in agricultural and horticultural sectors due to its ability to carry out repetitive motions, ensure smooth operation when making tight turns and work on even the most difficult of terrain in all weather conditions. Business development manager for Tractor & Groundcare, Adrian Langmead, said: “We have a couple

of very unique show special edition vehicles to unveil to visitors at Grassland this year that I’m sure they will love. “We’ve already had some exciting agricultural launches in 2015 but we want to go one step further and highlight just what can be done to a Kubota vehicle to really make it stand out.” “The Kubota team will be on hand at the show to offer advice and demonstrate why our tractors and new RTV are just what a modern day farmer needs to carry out the most demanding of tasks quickly and efficiently.” The tractors will not all be on static display, there will be a chance to see them in action with a host of different implements fitted and working around the site. Kubota says that it is also keen to show off its well-known mid-range machinery to livestock and dairy farmers on the day, including its 100hp M9960, which incorporates a 36x36 multi stage transmission, hydraulic shuttle and a maximum speed of 40kph. ■

Ted, spread and rake

Claas’ Volto 1300T tedder.

Two new additions to the Claas highoutput Volto tedder and Liner rake ranges will be made in time for this year’s grass silage harvest. Following the introduction of the award-winning Max Spread crop flow concept on the Volto range, a new 13m version has been added – the Volto 1300T. It’s a 10-rotor trailed machine, the widest in the current Claas range. Each rotor is 1.5m wide and fitted with seven spreader arms with heavy-duty 10.5mm sprung steel tines.

With the Max Spread system, instead of the spreading arms being straight, they’re angled by 29 degrees. The crop flow between the rotors has more space than with conventional straight spreading arms, reducing the load on the driveline and the bending forces on the tines, and being gentler on the crop. The linear flow means that larger crop volumes can pass through the tedding rotors, not only helping to increase throughput but also providing a wider and more even

spread pattern. For different crop conditions, the spreading angle can be adjusted between 12 and 16 degrees without the use of tools. The standard specification includes a hydraulic headland crop guard and there’s a new optional headland lift system that allows all the rotors to be lifted while still turning. In addition to the support wheels on each rotor, the Volto 1300T is fitted as standard with double castor wheels on the drawbar for optimum ground following. Meanwhile, Claas’ new rake – the Liner 3600 – can be adjusted from 9.9m to 12.5m, but is designed to be compact enough for road transport. The model succeeds the Liner 3500 and uses well-tried-and-tested components from the rest of the Liner range, including the continuously lubricated and hermetically sealed cam track. Each of its tine arms has four dual tines, secured using the Profix quickchange system. For accurate ground following and to avoid crop contamination, each

rotor is equipped with a large 4-wheel chassis, while the contour wheels are positioned extremely close to the tines. Control is via the new Operator control terminal or the Communicator II. With either, the delay between the front and rear rotors lifting or lowering can be easily set. The Liner 3600 also has an optional load-sensing system. Alternatively the rake can be controlled using an Isobus cable via an Isobus-compatible control terminal. The new running gear gives a transport height of less than 4m, allowing safe road transport without the need to remove any tine arms. If necessary, the transport height or ground clearance can also be simply adjusted on-the-move, without the need to use the control terminal. The new running gear also makes it possible to fit large-volume, groundprotecting 620/40 R22.5 tyres and still maintain a 3m transport width. A low centre of gravity not only makes road transport quick and safe, but also contributes to safety when working on hillsides. ■

Grassland UK

Tedder bears scrutiny Despite being entry-level models, Pöttinger’s new tedders are said to be packed with innovative and impressive features. The HIT 4.47 offers a working width of 4.7m, while its larger sibling, the HIT 4.54 – which will be in action at this year’s Grassland UK event – has a working width of 5.4m. Both are 4-rotor models, aimed specifically at the smaller- and medium-sized farm where excellent spreading performance in a wide range of conditions is as vital as anywhere. Their robust Pöttinger-

manufactured Dynatech rotors use solid steel tine arms with a swept design that ensures an even and careful grass spread whatever the crop volume. Thanks to its trailing design, grass is released from the tines easily, preventing snagging or wadding and ensuring a consistent dry matter throughout the crop. The spreading angle can be adjusted on each individual rotor without the need for tools thanks to a simple pin-and-hole system. The tedders can also be offset very simply for the headland pass with the

Fenceline system, which ensures crop is spread into the field and not over the boundary. All rotors are equipped with robust 16x6.5, 8-ply tyres, helping to avoid unnecessary time-consuming punctures. Hydraulic folding of the outer rotors is further complemented by the ability to swivel the uppermost rotors inwards when folded. This helps reduce the overall transport width to 2.45m.

Optionally available is the patented Pöttinger Mulfitast jockey wheel system which, in independent trials, has been shown to reduce forage contamination by up to 25 per cent. The leading jockey wheel design, in conjunction with a slotted top link hole, allows ground contours to be followed precisely – reducing ground strike by the tines and reducing overall contamination levels. ■

Spread the cost of harvesting grass Kongskilde is announcing the addition of a new forage harvester and mower to its range, plus a new finance scheme for any of its JF grassland harvesting equipment purchased before the end of May 2015. The FCT1060C is aimed at the farmer market, while the GXS 4005 is a 4m ‘top end’ plain disc mower. This is said to meet the demands

of high-output mowing where conditioning is not required, but where high-capacity without the need for front/rear combinations is the order of the day. The mower features centre pendulum hydraulic suspension, 3-way folding for transport and JF’s latest cutterbar Q+ Disc and knife system. The company’s new 3-year

Grassland UK

Sowing for the future There’s never been a better time than now to consider a full re-seed to tackle unproductive grass fields. That’s the message Barenbrug UK is taking to Grassland UK. With the price of red diesel hovering around 50p/litre, compared with 67p/litre in April 2014, the company, a leading provider of agricultural grass and forage seed mixtures, is encouraging farmers to plough any fuel savings into grassland renovation. Across the UK, Barenbrug’s grass seed customers have been reporting that 2014 was a good year for hay

and silage production. With plentiful supplies of forage to hand, plus red diesel available at a continuing low cost, the company is urging farmers to drive red diesel savings into grass care. Its head of agriculture James Ingles says: “When fuel costs drop, grass work becomes cheaper than ever. “Livestock farmers across the UK would be wise to take advantage of this. Using any money saved on red diesel to make some simple investments in grassland this spring could pay real dividends later in the year.

temperature needs to be higher than 8°C, which is typically between April and September. Coupled with good fertility and a degree of moisture, these temperatures give seeds the bestpossible conditions to germinate. Rolling the ground after sowing to improve seed:soil contact will also promote germination. Re-seeding in this way allows the plant to develop a good root structure that is ready to spread and grow in the following spring – quickly increasing grass cover, James adds. ■

“In 2014 we made lots of extra hay and silage – which is great. But now is not the time for complacency.” An early or hard winter could still leave farmers “scrapping around” for fodder later in the year, he says. “Our message is simple,” James says. “While red diesel prices remain low, farmers should identify poorly performing fields, sample the soil and re-seed to ensure a plentiful supply of grass throughout this year and beyond.” According to Barenbrug, the best time to re-seed is when the ground is moist and warm. The soil

Fresh life for grass Northumberland company Wox Agri Services will be taking both a 3 and 6m Gϋttler Greenmaster re-seeding system to the Grassland event this year to exhibit and demonstrate – leaving the other standard width 9 and 12m versions at home. The Gϋttler Greenmaster can be supplied in any front/rear combination to meet specific needs and the Greenseeder unit, which is a 6m Harroflex and seeder unit,

can be supplied with a hitch point allowing the attachment of any trailer rollers. The Greenmaster system features the heavy-duty Harroflex unit with fully-adjustable ripper board followed by two rows of fullyadjustable 12mm sprung tines to rip and prepare the seedbed. Its self-cleaning roller with prism profile ensures complete seedto-soil contact, while a choice of

seeder units with accurate PTO, hydraulic or electric fan units meets every need. The heavyweight machine ensures tines and roller work to maximum effect at all times, with the pendular movement of the rollers in machines wider than 6m ensuring complete ground coverage.

New trailed centre pivot mower conditioners now extend KUHN’S range, with the 3.1 metre FC 3160 TCD and 3.5 metre FC 3560 TCD offering the potential of around 15% increased output when compared with the equivalent side pull machine. Manoeuvrability aided by the centre pivot design is enhanced by KUHN’S GYRODINE swivel hitch, which ensures the PTO shaft is always perfectly aligned for maximum reliability and reduced maintenance. The GYRODINE system allows sharp turns at speed, without the risk of damaging the input drive and whilst maintaining accurate ground-following capability. KUHN’S OPTIDISC cutterbar and FAST-FIT cutting knives are included as standard, and both models feature adjustable suspension and large diameter tyres for superior groundfollowing and stability, even when working on steep sloping ground.

Broad range of grassland kit Exhibiting at Grassland UK, AMIA Ltd is the exclusive UK and Ireland distributor of the Enorossi range of equipment. Tedders; rakes; disc mowers; round balers; mower conditioners; twin rotor rakes; single rotor rakes; drum mowers; bale wrappers; tedder and rake combinations, as well as its ranges of V-Rakes, are all available. Enorossi V-Rakes come in two main models, says the company; the first is the Batrake carted V-Rake which comes in 8-wheel (5.0–5.6m working widths), 10-wheel (5.6–6.6m) and 12-wheel (6.0–7.4m) sizes. The second model is the Easy Rake Superstar Autosteer Pull

Type V-Rake, which comes in 10-wheel (6.3m working width), 12-wheel (7.4m), 14-wheel (8.3m), 16-wheel (9.7m), 18-wheel (10.6m) and 20-wheel (11.5m) sizes. Due to Enorossi’s patented design features, its V-Rakes allow operators to dramatically reduce their maintenance costs as well as machinery downtime when compared with twin rotor rakes and larger models, while also being able to operate at a faster speed, says AMIA. Contractors and farmers can also benefit from being able to use smaller tractors for the size of rake – a 40hp

tractor is the minimum size required to operate an Enorossi Batrake 12 with a 7.4m working width. Smaller tractors also reduce compaction levels and benefit yields, adds the company. Individual raking wheel pressure adjustment and variable pressure adjustment on the entire raking arm ensures a good performance, while the Batrake models can be operated with just a single raking arm down.

Mr Vanstone adds that the average output is a ‘very acceptable’ 10 acres/ hour. For transport, the two rotors fold vertically for a sub-4m height and the legal road width is achieved without the need to remove any tine arms. ■

Silage- and hay-making highlights Taking centre-stage on Kuhn Farm Machinery’s two hectare working demonstration plot at Grassland UK will be its new trailed mower conditioner and 4-rotor grass rake and the latest version of its fixed-chamber round baler. The trailed 3.1m FC 3160 TCD mower conditioner uses a centrepivot design that allows it to be used on either side of the tractor, or in conjunction with a front-mounted mower for extra productivity. The key benefit of the centre-pivot design is the ability to work across the field, rather than setting it out at the headlands. Kuhn claims that, by virtually eliminating dead time spent travelling at the headlands, working time is cut by as much as 15 per cent. Reducing traffic on headlands also means headland swaths aren’t flattened. In addition it can contribute to a reduction in soil compaction and soil contamination – improving silage quality. The FC range of mower conditioners uses Kuhn’s Gyrodine swivel hitch for improved PTO shaft alignment, better reliability, reduced maintenance and enhanced ground following. The Gyrodine headstock can

operate at 540 or 1,000rpm and allows centre-pivot machines to turn sharply, and at speed, without the risk of damaging the input drive and without destabilising the machine’s groundfollowing capability. The FC range also uses Kuhn’s Optidisc cutterbar and Fast-Fit cutting knives as standard, and is available with a rotor equipped with free-swinging 560mm steel flails or a 240mm roller conditioner. Both options offer high material throughput and can be operated at 780 or 1,000rpm rotor speed according to crop conditions. The FC’s conditioner also features an articulated hood that can be set for swathing or wide spreading, adding considerably to the range’s versatility. The company also offers a 3.5m version – the FC 3560 TCD. Its new Gyrorake, the GA 13131 has a working width of 11.0–12.5m and is designed for use where a high work output is required. Four rotors each hold 11 tine arms, with four tines per arm. Each rotor is mounted on four pivoting, large-diameter wheels for excellent ground contouring and high load bearing. The wheels sit close to

the tines to improve ground following further, while a three-dimensional rotor suspension system provides even greater stability when working at high speeds, says Kuhn. Rotor working height can be adjusted hydraulically as standard, with all four rotors powered by Kuhn’s headstock-mounted hydraulic drive unit which offers the option to increase front rotor speed by up to 20 per cent when working in lighter crops. The four rotors work together to create a central windrow, 150 to 240cm wide. The cab-mounted V50 series terminal that controls them is Isobus compatible and allows operating sequences to be pre-programmed for easy U-turns. Each rotor can be lifted individually for a perfect finish and to give the machine high ground clearance for

ease of manoeuvring and unhindered travel across uneven terrain. The GA 13131 is characteristically robust, says Kuhn, and uses the company’s Masterdive GIII gearbox to reduce power transfer stresses and to provide reliable service with low maintenance. Its patented 2-stage design uses bevel-and-spur gear reduction and is totally enclosed for minimal maintenance – the service interval is 200 hours. The GA rake requires a minimum PTO power output of 95hp. It stands at less than 4m in height and is 3m wide when fully folded for safe and easy road transportation. Two different intake rotors, the Optifeed and Opticut 14, are available on the latest version of Kuhn’s popular fixed-chamber round baler – the FB 2135 MKII. Both feature a 2.3m pick-up.

Strength and quality From 15–35m3, Samson’s slurry tankers have been developed to meet the requirements of the professional user in terms of efficiency, flexibility, and userfriendliness with low maintenance costs. They’re made using high-tensile Domex steel and polyurethanepainted with the inner surface of the tank epoxy-treated. The company offers two ranges. The PG range, covering 15–25m3, has been in the market for more than 10 years. The PGII range, at 16–35m3, however, is said to bring “a whole new dimension” of build strength

and quality in addition to capacity. The PGII range covers a variety of builds, from a simple ejector vacuum filling to a very high-capacity proven pump tower. This range has been developed to use larger wheel sizes for lower ground pressure while keeping within width and height requirements and retaining the manoeuvrability of the older PG range. With the new rear multi-lift being able to lift 9t, the PGII models can easily work with the largest available implements. Spreading is completely

The PGII range brings a new dimension to Samson’s slurry tankers.

automatic with the SM6000 computer. And, this year, Samson is launching the SM8000 computer which, it says, will elevate slurry spreading automation to the next level.

With prices starting from £55,000, Samson’s machines can be fitted with a variety of its implements, including drip hoses up to 30m, grassland injectors up to 12m and arable incorporators up to 8.5m. ■

Package and protect – new range for 2015 Unsurprisingly for the world’s leading producer of agricultural twines, Cotesi is introducing a comprehensive and extensive range of products for 2015. Its crop packaging and crop protection products include baler twines, netwrap, sisal baler twine, stretch film and silage film, silage

nets and silage bags. For its baler twine products, there is new clearer information on the packaging and, following their success in previous seasons, the 13kg Big Bale 7200 and HighDensity Platinum XL spools are once again being offered. Cotesi’s Maxicover netwrap is

available in either 3,000 or 3,600m rolls. Its Balpaq stretch film, meanwhile, is a blown five-layer 25 micron film, available in black or green. The company is also responsible for hinge-joint stock fences and fixed-knot fences for wildlife. Its

Turf deserves correct care Paddocks, amenity areas, large lawns, golf courses, football pitches and other turf playing surfaces all come under Bury Turfcare’s remit. The Suffolk company is expert at creating and maintaining such surfaces, specialising in scarifying, harrowing, re-seeding, decompaction, draining, and levelling poached areas. Managing director Peter Knight has developed his particular indepth expertise in turf care, based on agricultural experience – having grown up on a farm – and a strong affinity with the land. The company combines many

years of experience with major investment in industry-leading equipment to provide an efficient, cost-effective service. That, it says, is the key to its “superb” results – whether carrying out major earthworks and creating a robust drainage system, or maintaining an existing surface with minimum disruption. When it comes to horse paddocks, Peter shuns the use of a grassland subsoiler because when the land dries out it shrinks, leaving ruts in the ground that are a hazard to horses’ delicate limbs. Rather, he chooses a Verti-Drain,

which leaves 24mm holes at depths of 150 –250mm. One of the most recent jobs for the VertiDrain was at the Horseheath racecourse in Cambridgeshire. Regarded widely at East Anglia’s premier course, the undulating course of more than three miles drains well with the help of Bury Turfcare’s regular maintenance.

Verti-Draining is the preferred option for Bury Turfcare’s horse paddock maintenance.

Spreading specialist Joskin manufactures a large range of vehicles for the transport and spreading of agricultural products and also for pasture care, says the company. Standard equipment on the spreader ranges includes shredding beaters with folded spirals; a moving floor with grade 80 shipping chains (the highest

Farmers Guide May 112-188.indd 115

resistance grade in traction chains); a transmission protected by elastic coupling and a crosssuspension drawbar. Combined with several options, the machines ensure even spreading, points out Joskin. The single-axle Siroko with narrow and fully galvanised body is designed for tractors below

130hp and has a capacity from 8–12m3. Its low centre of gravity and large wheel dimensions guarantee stability. The Tornado3, with capacities from 12–24m3, is designed for tractors from 130hp and above, for more intensive work. Its two vertical beaters (1,010mm) spread on a width from 7–16m per row,

depending on the product. Joskin also manufactures spreaders with horizontal beaters (1,080mm) and a spinning deck, the Ferti-Space Horizon, with volumes up to 25m3. This universal wide body machine spreads a range of composts and manures evenly on large widths, and with a low flow.

Challenge launched to highlight baler qualities Vicon is to run a demonstration programme throughout the 2015 grass season to highlight the performance, efficiency and quality of its round baler range. Called the Vicon Bale Challenge, the in-field demonstration includes the new FlexiWrap baler-wrapper combination in addition to the latest generation RV5200 series variable chamber balers. The FlexiWrap baler-wrapper combination being demonstrated is based on the latest generation RV5216 baler equipped with Vicon’s new PowerBind net system and 14-knife SuperCut grass chopping system. FlexiWrap is mounted on a twin axle chassis that includes a twin satellite wrapper, offering impressive one-man baling and wrapping output. The baler wrapper combination offers fully automatic controls, plus manual and over-ride options. As the bale is completed and the rear door opened, the wrapper table moves close to the rear of the baler to accept the bale. With the bale positioned for wrapping, baling can then continue while twin satellite arms take care of wrapping. Once complete, the wrapping table

is lowered to create a low unloading height. As an option, a bale-on-end kit can be fitted. Film storage for 10 rolls can be lowered hydraulically for easier change over too. Variable chamber RV5216 and RV5220 produce bales with diameters of up to 1.65 and 2.00m respectively, using five endless belts and a closed chamber system that affords immediate bale starting. This latest generation of baler gets an all-new net wrap system, plus a new software package for easier selection of bale density, says Vicon. PowerBind injects net directly into the bale chamber, which maintains net tension at all times and delivers repeatable accuracy with consistent net injection. Further details and how to register for the Bale Challenge are available online through the Vicon website, at www.uk.vicon.eu. ■

Beneﬁts of selenium fertiliser Farmers should consider applying selenium fertiliser to their grassland in a bid to improve farm animal health all year round. According to the British Geological Survey, about 90 per cent of agricultural soils are deficient in selenium, which has a direct impact on selenium levels in grazed and ensiled forage. “Selenium deficiency has serious health implications,” says Origin

Fertilisers’ technical director, Peter Scott. “In cattle, symptoms include infertility, retained placenta, white muscle disease, poor live weight gain and a range of auto-immune disorders. Rather than using expensive mineral supplements, farmers should consider boosting selenium levels in their forage instead. This is a cost-effective and simple solution as they’ll be spreading fertiliser anyway.”

Tractor cabs

Some of the older generation tractor drivers will recall the days when air-conditioning meant sitting on a steel pan seat in the open air with the protection of corn sacks over the shoulders and knees on cold winter days. Tractors didn’t have headlights then so there was at least a limit to how long the driver was exposed to the worst of the winter weather. However, by the late 1940s several companies were making cabs for the more popular makes of tractor. Some were made of steel or aluminium with Perspex windows and the corn sack could now be used as a cushion on the pan seat. Others had a steel frame with a canvas cover and an ex-army great coat was still needed to keep warm, but at least the driver didn’t get wet. The aptly named Weathershields and Suntrac cabs were two of several makes on the market at the time. An advertisement advised farmers that with a Weathershields cab, important work could be carried out in all weathers without delay. The cab, with full front, side and rear vision and a hand

operated screen wiper, which cost £28 ex-works, could be assembled on the farm. The Suntrac cab, said to give full protection against the roughest weather, was slightly more expensive; an opening front screen and a driving mirror were optional extras. By the early 1950s several companies including Scottish Aviation, Lambourn, Minster and Portland Engineering were also making cabs of similar design for the most popular makes of tractor.

Farmers Guide May 1990 reported that Helmut Claas had personally handed over the 24,000th combine harvester to be sold by Claas at Saxham, to a Norfolk farmer. The first Claas combine was sold in the UK in 1947. An ultra-high volume crop sprayer with an output of up to 120 gallons/acre at speeds of up to 15mph was introduced by Gem Sprayers, which anticipated that the new machine would be of particular interest to contractors. A new Vicon Compact 800 big square baler, which made bales 2ft 8in square and up to 8ft 3in long, was one of several models included in a special feature on big balers. Renault launched the new 165hp 4wd TZ 175-74 tractor and Case IH announced the new Maxxum series. The new Renault with a 6-cylinder engine and a 24-forward and 8-reverse transmission, and an air-conditioned cab, had a price tag of £48,890. The new 4wd Maxxum 5100 series tractors in the 90–110hp bracket had a 16-forward and 12-reverse powershift transmission with power shuttle,

a cab with optional air-suspension and optional front hydraulic linkage and power take-off. It was also announced in May 1990 that Ford and Fiat were in discussions that could lead to worldwide arrangements concerning their tractor and equipment operations while retaining their product and market identities. A feature on the 1990 Suffolk Show - admission prices were £4.00 for adults and £1.25 for senior citizens and children - noted there were more trade stands than in the previous year. Special attractions included the Royal Marines, international show jumping and a hot air balloon display. Dealership Thurlow Nunn Standen was looking forward to celebrating its 100th Suffolk Show. Exhibits planned for the multi-prize winning stand - thanks to the efforts of Harold Armstrong and his floral displays for the previous 39 years - included the latest Massey Ferguson tractors, combines and balers. Dealer LE Tuckwell was showing a new articulated self-propelled sprayer, a combination of a John Deere tractor and an Allman sprayer, which it had made at Worlingworth in Suffolk. Farmers Guide reported that live Colorado beetles had been found in a consignment of vegetables imported mainly from Italy and France and that Hadlow College in Kent had introduced a new work experience programme. This would provide work experience of up to one year on farms for young people from other EU countries. The Hadlow College European Work Experience Award would be presented to participants at the end of the programme. ■
