Power in Action Organised jointly by Suffolk Farm Machinery Club and Farmers Guide, the biennial Power in Action cultivations demonstration due to be held this autumn has been cancelled. This year marks the 50th anniversary of the first event held at Otley and members of the organising committee were keen to celebrate the half-century by staging it close to its original east Suffolk location. However, in recent years, the demonstration has been further west, and a survey of exhibitors determined that many preferred the recent locations for their ability to attract visitors from East Anglia as well as further afield. An attempt was made to find a suitable west Suffolk venue for this September but proved impossible at relatively short notice, and so the decision was made to cancel while work begins on finding a suitable location for 2019.

What a difference a week makes. These two pictures are of a medium land sugar beet field taken near Bury St Edmunds, Suffolk in mid-May. The one on the left was just before much-needed rainfall arrived and, on the right, the same field a week later after considerable rainfall, and showing a major improvement in crop growth.

As the saying goes…‘Sugar beet should meet in the row by the Suffolk Show’. Luckily, though, there are plenty of other agricultural shows after the 31st May to substitute ‘Suffolk’ with, if it makes you feel any better about the size of your sugar beet crop this season. Up until mid-May when the ‘drought’ broke and temperatures finally started to rise, concern was growing for the general well-being of sugar beet across the growing region, with patchy establishment in many places following seed being sown into cold and drying seedbeds in late March. Irrigators, where possible, were being pressed into action and time will tell as to whether this poor start will affect overall yield come the end of the season. That said, some crops sown earlier, and into moisture, got away in good time and will probably have lived up to the crop’s Suffolk Show billing. A season like this once again brings beet establishment into focus, and in this issue we have five pages of in-depth articles about the crop, starting with a farmer on page 8 who drilled his crop using a zero-till establishment regime including cover crops and fertiliser placement. Also, we have information on the latest varieties to join the Recommended List (p12), as well as comment from the breeders. Finally, on page 16, there’s a focus on bolting and why varieties with a low bolting score are essential for those that

want to get crops drilled as early as possible.

Grain & Fertiliser Gossip

by Graham Henderson – graham@henders.biz

At last we have had some rain. What a relief! I live adjacent to a golf course and the fairways are brown, as I write in May, which I have never seen before in the 50 years that I have lived here. Farmers with irrigation have been watering both wheat and barley which, although historically has happened occasionally, is by no means normal. Over the past two nights (in mid-May) we have had 27mm. Apart from the northerly and easterly winds, it has been quite warm recently and good growing weather. Now, with the rain, crops will leap ahead. Prospects for agriculture in the US and the UK are quite depressing and some say it is now as bad as it was in the 1930s. The change of policy in China is driving the problem as it has released reserve stock onto the market and subsequently reduced the demand for both production in China and its need for imports. This, on top of the unpredictable Trump effect in the US, and potential Brexit problems in the UK, is going to depress cereal markets across the world. In the UK, currency is giving farm crops a price advantage compared with the euro and dollar but this may not last. In the US, Trump’s policies throw up fresh problems almost daily and there is a likelihood that he could be impeached at any time. His relationship with a range of foreign leaders is, to say the least, variable, which could close market outlets in a nanosecond.

Grain Gossip Figures predicted by the USDA earlier in May showed confusion over both current stocks and potential yield in the US and across the world. Today (19th May) UK prices have firmed a

little with June feed wheat at around £143/t ex-farm and feed barley £116/t. However there is little, if any, being traded. Forward price for harvest as available is £128/t ex-farm for wheat and £109/t ex-farm for feed barley. These values are around £5–£6/t more for November. Price variations over the last month have been based on the volatility of currency and a lack of moisture across Europe, plus cold weather in the US. All indications are for these prices to fall lower. Selling some potential stock forward could be the right deal at this time. I have noticed a series of posters promoted by AHDB for the identification of problems with grain. These are very good and highlight virtually all the delivery issues that can cause rejections at intake locations. For example with barley it covers all aspects of pests and diseases, physical damage, weed seeds and screenings, which are all relevant and particularly so with malting barley. In my view the posters are a ‘must’ to have in the office as a reference. All growers, at some time or other, have these problems with their grain and this information is an easy looksee when necessary.

Fertiliser Fragments It would appear that the season has started off early with nitrogen prices. CF Fertiliser announced its Nitram prices this week (w/c 15th May). This no doubt was to compete with the granular prices which have reduced to below £200/t on some spot and forward offers. The Nitram price is a flat £180/t delivered June to September. I believe that September tonnage is sold out now but, if not, it will certainly be sold by the time you receive this magazine, as maybe other months are too. Double Top is £203/t offered on the same basis and significant amounts are also likely to have been sold. There is no doubt that CF Fertilisers is a very aggressive market operator with an intention of increasing its UK sales. This is a very positive situation for growers. The

fertiliser price against wheat value is now at a level we have not seen for many years. Urea has actually started to move up in price as India indicates it is about to go out to tender and 0that will, as usual, be a significant quantity.

Rugby Ramblings What a wonderful weekend of rugby I have just enjoyed. The first match between Exeter and Saracens was a really enjoyable battle throughout, and went right down to the wire. I certainly expected Saracens to win the championship semi-final after their superb but bruising defeat of the French side Clermont the previous weekend. And with only five minutes to go against Exeter, Saracens took the lead. I felt it was all over at that point but following an extraordinary 60 yard plus kick for touch by replacement Henry Slade, Exeter won the lineout and, after a great drive, Sam Simmonds touched it down to give Exeter the win. Champagne flowed in all directions as the spectators went wild. Having enjoyed one special match we were all then treated to another when Wasps and Leicester went down to the last minute too. Leicester outplayed Wasps for much of the match but Wasps were dogged right to the end with man of the match Joe Launchbury playing a real captain’s game. Leicester were leading with two minutes left and, again, I thought it was all over until Wasps managed to get a last minute try from Bassett after a lineout. What a great afternoon of rugby. Sunday brought more TV rugby time with the sevens from Twickenham which was also very good value from a number of teams in the quarter finals. In the final Scotland repeated their win of the previous year at Twickenham and defeated England by 12 points to 7 in another exciting match. ■ Call me on 07979 537777; or e-mail: graham@henders.biz to talk about selling grain or buying your fertiliser requirements.

Zero-tilled beet given a timely boost It’s not been the best of starts for beet growers this season with the cold and dry spring, but Dominic Kilburn catches up with a pioneering Suffolk grower who’s decided to look at novel methods to establish his crop.

p The Sfoggia Sigma 5 drilling sugar beet into trashy conditions in Suffolk earlier this spring. uSuffolk grower Steve Taylor.

Switching to a zero-till system and the use of cover crops in the rotation barely gets so much as a raised eyebrow these days, having become an almost commonplace sight on farms up and down the country. But adopting these methods for the establishment of sugar beet – combined with the placement of fertiliser while drilling the crop – might still get a few heads turning. This is exactly what Suffolk grower Steve Taylor has embarked upon this season with a new drill and some home-grown trials at his family’s farming partnership, John H Taylor, Boxford. He hopes to reduce the cost of sugar beet establishment and, with direct fertiliser placement and the use of cover crops, give sugar beet an establishment boost each spring leading to an improvement in overall yields. Mr Taylor farms approximately 580ha (1,430 acres) in south Suffolk –

the home farm business plus contract arrangements on four other farms in the area. Soil is typically sandy clay loam and cropping includes winter wheat, winter oilseed rape, spring barley and spring beans, while some irrigated land is let for onions. Also, up to 50ha (120 acres) of sugar beet is grown on the farm at Boxford while Mr Taylor undertakes some contract drilling of the crop on farms nearby. “Sugar beet suits us well in the rotation at home – it has helped us keep control of black-grass in a part of the country where it is a real problem and where wheat/rape rotations have dominated in the past,” commented Mr Taylor. “As growers, I believe we need to continue to expand our cropping options as was the case many years ago. We can’t stand still – we have also

got to keep looking at new options such as the use of cover crops to make what we do better, so that we have a sustainable business to hand over to the next generation,” he said. Last year Mr Taylor switched to a zero-till regime (on a limited number of fields) using a Weaving GD drill, with the aim to establish winter combinable crops by drilling direct into stubble, minimising soil disturbance and leaving weed seeds undisturbed in the soil profile. “We’re very much experimenting across a few fields rather than converting to the system in one go and, although we only started with the Weaving drill last July, we saved 190 tractor hours in 2016 compared with our conventional establishment programme. “Zero tillage is already showing us a massive saving in machinery use and labour costs, plus there is the benefit of reduced carbon emissions,” he added.

New drill Although Mr Taylor admits it’s still “early days” in terms of his experience with a zero-till regime, this didn’t stop him forging ahead with a plan to adopt the same principles for sugar beet establishment. For many years the farm has operated an ageing Stanhay Webb drill, but in order to move forward with sugar beet establishment featuring less cultivations and passes in the field, a new precision drill capable of operating in stubble and cover crop trash, and one that could simultaneously apply fertiliser in the seedbed was the priority. “Typically when drilling sugar beet we apply a base fertiliser pre-drilling and nitrogen after, but there are suggestions that a second application post-drilling is often put on too late to benefit the crop to the maximum. “I wanted a drill that would be suitable for any crop that requires precision drilling, but also one that was able to place fertiliser at the same time to give the crop a timely boost,” he added.

maize, rather than beet, but its Devonbased importer for this country, AMIA UK, visited to discuss what we wanted and to see how one of its drills could be adapted for sugar beet.” With advice from AMIA’s Alan Dennis, a small sample of sugar beet seed was sent to Sfoggia to ensure the correct seed metering system was fitted. And, after consideration, a 3m (6-row) Sigma 5 drill was selected earlier this year and fitted with a 900-litre fertiliser hopper – capacity to take a 600kg bag.

Trash buster To give the drill its zero-till credentials, a ‘wavy disc’ is positioned ahead of each coulter with a ‘star wheel’ either side of it. The star wheels are designed to push any trash away and clear a path for the seed coulter following, while the wavy disc cuts through any remaining trash. Two disc coulters then open up the furrow for seed to be metered and dropped in, while two press wheels following at the rear firm and consolidate the soil around the seed. At the front of the drill, fertiliser discs and coulters deliver gravity fed fertiliser into the soil 5cm to one side of where the seed is planted. “I think the fertiliser placement aspect of this drill will be seen as a huge advantage and I am hoping that other local growers who want to look at the option of zero-till beet drilling will want to try it in the future.”

During discussions in 2016, GD drill manufacturer Edward Weaving pointed Mr Taylor in the direction of Italian precision drill manufacturer Sfoggia, which he said always had the busiest stand at trade shows that he attended in Italy. “It turned out to be a very good recommendation by Edward,” commented Mr Taylor. “Sfoggia specialises in drills for vegetables and

placement. “After wheat harvest we drilled both a nutrient-fixing cover crop and a nutrient-capture cover crop into the stubble in side-by-side plots, alongside a control plot left as stubble,” he explained. “In the late autumn we went through the cover crops with a Quivogne Tinemaster disc/tine cultivator, fitted with Tillso legs so as not to bring up soil from below, plus a Guttler roller which had the effect of crimping the cover crops that hadn’t been sufficiently broken up by the discs.” No chemical was used to destroy the cover crops at that stage but, in the spring, and just ahead of drilling the sugar beet, glyphosate was applied. “I’m not sure what is the right mix of cover crop as yet – there are so many to choose from but I do know that buckwheat is good for scavenging phosphate and bringing it closer to the surface, while phacelia is good at capturing potash. They also provide rooting to different depths helping to break up the soil structure – basically replacing the need for a mechanical cultivation,” explained Mr Taylor. “It will also be interesting to see if they have any noticeable effect on the

following crop after beet,” he added. To add to the overall mix, part of the trial had a base fertiliser application to the seedbed predrilling, with nitrogen applied after, and the remainder had potash and nitrogen applied from the new drill, at the time of drilling, by way of comparison. In addition, an area of cover crop was left uncultivated and then grazed from October, and throughout winter, by a flock of Norfolk Horn rare breed sheep owned by his daughter Abbi. “The sheep seemed to love it and they put on a lot of weight, and I will be looking carefully as to how the beet drilled on that land performs,” he said.

The story so far The earliest beet in the trial was drilled on the 17th March and, according to Mr Taylor, established well with no initial discernable difference between the two fertiliser regimes. However, cold and dry weather conditions that followed hampered establishment across the entire beet-growing region. “Because of the poor growing conditions this spring, establishment has been too slow to notice any great difference between the plots at this stage, in mid-May, although the

beet with the placed fertiliser is certainly more advanced – probably because the 160kg/ha of 28-12-0 placed by the drill at the time of drilling was more readily available than the nitrogen placed post drilling in the dry conditions. “Unfortunately though it has turned out that this was not the best year to start experimenting but it’s all interesting!” Moving forward to next year, Mr Taylor said that now that he knows the drill’s capability he is not too worried about trash management and reckons he will, without the use of discs, simply soil condition (shallow subsoil) cover cropped stubble with the low disturbance Tillso tines and Guttler roller in the autumn and, with luck, drill straight in, in the spring, without need for further cultivation. The drill has performed very well; drilling 180ha (450 acres) in total with very few teething problems, he added. “The only change we made was to have a hydraulic fan fitted, rather than being PTO-driven and, although the

drill has manual row shut-off, I want to get it converted to electronic for next season,” pointed out Mr Taylor. Operational speeds of 8kph have been typical, and in line with other modern sugar beet drills available. “Attention to detail has been fantastic from the manufacturer and when I have needed one or two items like a shear pin for example, they have arrived within three days in the post from Italy.” For next season, he plans to increase the amount of zerotilled sugar beet establishment in combination with cover crops and direct placement of fertiliser, in addition to expanding his contract drilling business in the area. As well as beet, he reckons that the drill is also ideally suited to drilling narrow strips of maize cover crops, where placement of fertiliser at the time of drilling will be particularly beneficial. *Farmers Guide will bring you updates from Mr Taylor’s beet trials later in the season. ■

New varieties for the 2018 sugar beet Recommended List Managed by BBRO (British Beet Research Organisation) and BSPB (British Society of Plant Breeders), six new sugar beet varieties made it through to the 2018 RL, announced in early May. Six new varieties have been added to the 2018 RL.

According to the RL Board, new varieties have to get through stringent field trials to be accepted on the Recommended List, and they have to be significantly better performing not just for yield but also for resilience to disease and bolting risk. RL Board chairman, Mike May, explains that the selection process is tough: “To earn a place on the Recommended List the new varieties have to perform well over three years of field trials. “We are testing the genetics

which means the conditions need to be as uniform as possible across the plots for both the newcomers and the controls. The sites are on farms run by some of our best growers so we can see how the varieties perform under field conditions.” BBRO Knowledge Exchange and Crop Progression Lead, Dr Simon Bowen, is particularly interested in how the varieties perform in bolter trials. A cold period will bring on vernalisation (the production of flowers) which is undesirable, as the plant will produce seed instead of building sugar in the root. “A long growing season will improve the yield and sugar

concentration, but an early sowing increases the risk of bolting,” explains Dr Bowen. “The trials include a comparison between Early Sown Bolting (ESB) and Normal Sown Bolting (NSB) to see how a variety performs under severe conditions. The results mean that growers will be able to make an informed decision about the risk of bolting.” Disease resistance is also important commented BBRO Scientific & Crop Stability Lead Dr Mark Stevens (left). “Disease resistance to rust and powdery mildew is given a score based on percentage leaf infection. We have recently started conducting powdery mildew trials under controlled conditions to provide a reliable assessment of the plant’s resistance regardless of the disease risk for that season.”

New varieties Varieties are judged on percentage yield above the best three controls, bolting risk, tolerance to disease (where 9 is the highest resistance) and establishment before gapping to 18 cm.

There are six new PR1 varieties for 2018: Daphna, Senada KWS, Landon, BTS 3325, Degas and Bloodhound. Daphna – adjusted yield 106.9 per cent, suitable for early sowing, tolerant to BCN. Senada KWS – yield performance is 105.6 per cent, lower pre-gap establishment so a higher seed rate may be required. Landon – has an adjusted yield performance of 104.7 per cent. This variety scored 7 for rust and 4 for powdery mildew. BTS 3325 – scored 103.0 per cent adjusted yield, good pregap establishment, no problem with bolting. Scored 7 for rust and 5 for powdery mildew. Degas – 102.0 per cent for adjusted yield, chance of bolting, slightly weaker on disease. Bloodhound – entered with 100.8 per cent for adjusted yield, good on bolting and establishment. It has a disease score for rust of 4, and 3 for powdery mildew. *The full Recommended List can be found at: www.bbro.co.uk/ varieties/recommended-list-2018. ■

New beet varieties bring yield and reliability, say breeders Landon is a high yielding variety from Strube.

Growers no longer need to sacrifice yield when selecting for nematode tolerance and disease resistance with new varieties from KWS combining exceptional yields with robust performance against pest and disease pressures, says the breeder. With KWS achieving four of the top five highest yielding varieties on the BBRO Recommended List for 2018, there is every opportunity for growers to manage risk without compromising profitability, adds the company. Introduced for the 2018 season, Daphna is the first BCNtolerant variety to top the BBRO Recommended List with a yield of 106.9 per cent of controls while Senada KWS has the best combined disease resistance of any variety and is the second-highest yielding variety on the RL with a yield of 105.6 per cent of controls. “Daphna outperformed all varieties in trial over three contrasting seasons. Almost seven per cent higher yielding than the control varieties, it has the potential to improve enterprise gross margins,” says KWS UK country manager for sugar beet, Ben Bishop (left). “A low bolter count in the early sown window (<5th March) and with excellent resistance to both rust (7) and powdery mildew (6), Daphna sugar beet seed is suited to all farm situations and locations and will prove popular with growers as a means of controlling nematode

infestations,” says Mr Bishop. The second-highest yielding variety to join the 2018 BBRO Recommended List is Senada KWS with an adjusted yield of 105.6 per cent. “Senada KWS has the best combined resistance to powdery mildew and rust of any recommended variety which, combined with its high yield, makes it an impressive all-round performer.” “Delivering its best performances when sown from midMarch, Senada KWS beet seed will appeal to growers wanting a range of varieties to spread the drilling workload,” adds Mr Bishop.

background. In the interests of managing risk, it does make sense to choose varieties from different breeders.” Landon and Degas join Strube’s established varieties Haydn and Pasteur which make up nearly one third of the UK National crop in 2017. Mr Powell believes that with so many varieties on the List having only trials data derived from kilos of seed, it makes good sense to keep a decent proportion of the crop in commercially proven varieties which have been well tested from large productions of commercial seed. For the fourth year in succession, in 2017, Haydn will make up nearly 20 per cent of the UK national sugar beet crop. “The combination of consistent yields, decent sugars and very low bolting in a commercially proven variety still appeals. In the past four years we have supplied over 100t of seed – so growers know what to expect.” In the specialist category, Thor from Strube is the only fully recommended variety with tolerance to BCN (beet cyst nematode). The company claims it offers sound, affordable performance in fields infested with nematodes with the added advantage of low bolting to allow earlier drilling.

Excellent establishment

Flexibility in sowing

Sugar beet breeder Strube has two new varieties offering genetic diversity at the top of the new list. Landon is a high yielding variety with excellent establishment which is ideal for later drilling, says the company. Also new is Degas, a low-bolting variety for earlier drilling, which combines improved sugar content with vigorous growth for rapid ground cover. Strube UK managing director Richard Powell (left) stresses the need to consider genetic diversity: “This is recognised in UK practice, where no single variety is allowed to take more than 20 per cent of the market and 10 of the 12 highest yielding varieties are derived from a similar genetic

BTS 3325 is a newly recommended variety for the 2018 season that offers growers the opportunity to grow a high yielding sugar beet variety with low bolting figures – offering flexibility in sowing for both the early and later drilling slots, says

Limagrain UK. “Choosing a new sugar beet variety is no longer just about output – agronomic characteristics such as bolting tolerance and disease resistance are becoming increasingly important characteristics to consider, which is why the Recommended List now requires varieties to perform well in these categories over three years of field trials,” says Limagrain sugar beet consultant Bram van der Have (right). BTS 3325 is a high yielding (103.0 per cent) rhizomania tolerant variety offering very high sugar content of 18.1 per cent, which is one of the highest on the BBRO Recommended List, making it a very attractive proposition for growers and end-users alike, he points out. “However what make BTS 3325 so exciting is that alongside this higher output, BTS 3325 has also demonstrated a very low ESB (early sown bolting) score – one of the lowest on the RL in this slot. “It is likely to appeal to growers who are in a position to drill on, or before, the 5th March, so it’s the ideal variety choice to start the beet sowing period, but it is also flexible enough to be sown later, without compromising its high yield and sugar content.” BTS 3325 also offers a very robust diseases resistance package that growers will find valuable, offering excellent rust resistance (7), and very good downy mildew and powdery mildew resistance, he adds. ■

Three-year data gives better understanding of bolting With the cold and dry weather dominating the early part of this season’s sugar beet growing campaign, bolting scores should be high on growers’ agenda when selecting varieties from the newlylaunched Recommended List. Dominic Kilburn writes. Those that took that chance of drilling early this season will probably get a 15–20 per cent yield advantage with their crops over those planted later, says plant breeder SESVanderHave.

It is vital that growers study variety bolting scores across ‘three-year data’ on the new sugar beet Recommended List before making their choice of seed for next season’s crop. And, with several varieties on the latest List designated as ‘unsuitable for sowing before mid-March’, options for choosing varieties suited to early drilling are narrowing. That’s according to breeder SESVanderHave UK general manager, Ian Munnery, who said that if ever there was a season in which to have the flexibility of getting the crop in the ground at the right time, it was this one. Speaking in mid-May, when much of the current crop across the sugar

beet growing region was struggling to establish following the persistent cold and dry conditions experienced this spring, he said that it had been key to get some crops in early. “Temperatures remained low for much of the spring, and soils dried out, and I believe this will cause significant levels of bolting in June and July. “But for those growers who got their seed in early, into moisture, crops will have got up and away quickly and avoided some of the problems seen in other crops in terms of the weather, and of course pests. “Its not rocket science. Growers must drill when the conditions are right to get the best establishment, and those that took that chance of drilling early this season will probably get a 15–20 per cent yield advantage with their crops over those planted later,” he suggested. However, having the flexibility to drill early carries the risk of early

bolting which will reduce yields and increase costs, he warned, and pointed out that as many as nine varieties on the new List are unsuitable for drilling before mid-March because of their susceptibility to bolting. “Looking at the three-year bolting data is critical,” he stressed. “If you take our new variety Bloodhound, for example, it has a mean of 2,882 bolters/ha – the lowest on the List – and that includes 2015 and 2016 which were both cold years that resulted in high numbers of bolters across trials. “Some of the other varieties performed OK in 2014 – a mild and low bolting year which you get every so often – but then they bolted like crazy in 2015 and 2016. And if you consider that on next year’s List the three-year mean figures will lose data from 2014, the bolting scores on some of these varieties will be very much worse,” he explained. “Every 1 per cent of bolting is at least 1 per cent loss of yield and so growers don’t want to be losing 20 per cent yield because of bolting. “Yes, you can use the higher bolting varieties for later sowing but then you have to take the chance with the weather and eventual yield loss,” he added. Mr Munnery also cautioned about headline-grabbing yields on the RL. “There’s a raft of varieties which

promise exceptionally high yields. Try some by all means but note that some are only provisionally recommended from a 1kg trials seed sample. More relevant is to look at data from larger (>500kg) commercial bulks. This is now highlighted in bold on the official BBRO/BSPB Recommended List and is integral to achieving ‘fully recommended’ status only after three years testing with larger commercial bulks. “Each year, SESVanderHave UK conducts some 20,000 trials across the key sugar beet growing areas of Britain. Our UK focused programme has delivered varieties with real staying power such as Cayman and Springbok which have been fully recommended for several years,” he concluded. ■

said BBRO. Do check product labels for recommendations for minimum crop and maximum weed growth stages (paying attention to rates of usage) to avoid checks in growth and damage, particularly where crops are stressed, advised the organisation. Some general guidelines are available in the BBRO Sugar Beet Reference Book

which can also be found on the BBRO website but always check the product labels to confirm rates or contact your agronomist, it added. Tailoring choice of herbicide to control the key weed species present is key and being prepared to change rates and even products between fields may give the best control. ■

Beet crops see steady growth at last After weeks of slow growth, rainfall and warmth saw crops begin to accelerate with the more advanced crops fully established beyond the 6-leaf stage, reported the BBRO in its mid-May Advisory Bulletin. However, for many crops progress remained slow with patchy emergence and canopies somewhere between emergence and

the 2–4 leaf stage. Some crops showed variability both within and between fields especially where there were differences in rainfall, soil type and field topography. The resulting range of different growth stages is a challenge when making decisions regarding herbicides, weed control and fertilisers,

Shattering interest The fourth in our series of special articles on ways of building greater resilience into oilseed rape growing to cope with today’s uncertainties focuses on reducing seed losses at harvest.

Volunteer control

The lighter strip (left) is a shatter-susceptible variety where all the seeds have been knocked out and the white insides of the open pods can be seen. The darker strip is a resistant variety where the pods have remained closed and the seed retained.

Seed shedding in the run up to and at harvest is invariably a problem with oilseed rape. In most cases, its true extent only becomes apparent in forests of volunteers on land left uncultivated for several weeks after harvest. Independently estimated to average as much as 15–20 per cent, OSR shedding losses can become acute at 50–70 per cent or more

after summer storms as a number of eastern growers found to their cost last season. They can be similarly high where harvesting is unduly delayed by either the weather or workloads. The risk of losses also frequently leads to earlier-than-ideal oilseed rape desiccation and harvesting. With each day of seed filling lost known to reduce yield by 1–2 per cent, this can easily be responsible for a 10 per

Quite apart from the loss of revenue, of course, seed shedding has major implications for volunteer OSR control in subsequent crops, every 100kg/ ha of seed lost being 2,000 potential plants/m2 to deal with in future management. “Solved by cereal breeding thousands of years ago, seed shedding remains a serious issue in oilseed rape,” stresses Professor Lars Østergaard (right), institute programme leader at the John Innes Centre. “Our research into pod shattering led to the development of a proven random impact testing protocol. Employing it we have found pods of commercial varieties from the Dekalb breeding programme to be significantly stronger and more resistant to shattering than those of other hybrid and pure line varieties tested alongside them. “It’s really encouraging to confirm such clear pod shatter resistance in modern varieties,” he stressed. “We know how important the character is and, after more than 10 years exploring its genetics, see it as having great potential to reduce seed losses, helping to make OSR yields more predictable and volunteers less troublesome.” Early on in their development of the OGURA hybridisation system, Dekalb breeders became aware that the radish genetics it included could make a major contribution to overcoming the particular susceptibility of oilseed rape pods to shedding. While selection for improved performance led this character to be lost in other breeding programmes, they were able to preserve a high level of shatter resistance in their parent lines, identify the genes involved and build upon them in variety development. “As well as JIC’s random impact testing, the presence and value of pod shatter resistance in our varieties has been confirmed through independent laboratory measurements of the force required to open pods and a series of delayed

harvesting field trials as well as extensive commercial experience,” pointed out Dekalb breeder, Matthew Clarke (right). “Under notably low shedding conditions, for instance, trials have shown our shatter resistant varieties out-yielding non-resistant controls with the same yield potential by an average of 6 per cent – or around 0.25t/ha – following a seven day delay in harvesting. “Other field trials have shown losses as low as zero from delayed harvesting with our most advanced genetics compared with as much as 25 per cent with non-resistant varieties alongside them. “On average too, volunteer oilseed rape populations following the harvesting of shatter-susceptible varieties have been found to be 17 times higher than after our genetics,” Mr Clarke explained. “As well as putting extra pressure on weed control in the succeeding crop, this provides a substantial green bridge for slug survival. “Under these circumstances, it’s not surprising the pod shatter resistance we have pioneered is becoming so widely appreciated by growers.”

First and foremost At Campney Grange Farm, Bucknall near Lincoln, pod shatter resistance is one of the first things Henry Moreton (right) looks for in a variety. “It gives you that extra confidence to hold off on your harvesting to bring in the biggest crop even if, like us, you don’t have a ‘fancy’ combine header,” he said. “You know you’ll harvest more if you leave the pods on the lower side branches to fill for a few more days. And you know your oil content is going to be up the fitter your rape is. But in the back of your mind there’s the worry that a lot of your seed could wind-up on the floor. “Shatter resistant varieties take away this worry, helping to give us the across-the-farm performance consistency that’s the first priority in all our cropping.” ■

Win 10 tonnes of CF Nitram with Farmers Guide and CF Fertilisers One very lucky Farmers Guide reader will win 10t of CF’s Nitram fertiliser by entering this exclusive competition. Please read the article below, answer the simple question that follows and then fill in the entry form or take part online.

Nitram FACTS

Dry spring underlines importance of correct fertiliser choice

•

correct choice is one of the most important decisions a grower has to make.” A key factor to consider is nitrogen utilisation efficiency – the relationship between what comes out of the back of a spreader and what is taken up by the plant, he says. “Defra NT26 research indicates the process of volatilisation to the air reduces the amount of urea nitrogen available to cereal crops by an average of 22 per cent. “In the worst-case scenario this was 43 per cent and was even higher in grassland. So, nearly half of the nitrogen paid for in urea can end up in the atmosphere and not on your crops.”

Optimum rate Ammonium nitrate (AN) remains the most reliable nitrogen fertiliser choice for UK arable producers and there’s no more trusted a name than CF Fertilisers’ Nitram (34.5%N). British-made and used by thousands of the country’s crop producers for over two generations, its iconic blue bag is synonymous with top quality, performance and value. And if ever there was a year to underline just how important choosing the best fertiliser is, 2017 is it, with producers who opted to choose urea experiencing problems due to the dry conditions during the spring, says Ross Leadbeater of CF Fertilisers. “These dry conditions may have resulted in some urea sitting on top of the land with the potential volatilisation resulting in nitrogen being lost to the atmosphere, leading to a detrimental effect on cost and the environment. “With nitrogen fertiliser creating the greatest return on investment of all inputs at around 5:1 on cereals,

Researchers have found that to maintain crop yields, the optimum nitrogen rate using urea would have to be, on average, 20 per cent higher than with AN – which is neither good for the environment or production costs, Ross Leadbeater adds. “On average, winter cereals using urea were shown to have yields 0.3–0.4t/ha less than those receiving AN-based fertiliser nitrogen.” “When it comes to grain quality, an ADAS review in 2015 concluded use of AN increased grain protein content by 0.4 per cent on average compared with urea, illustrating its superior performance in milling wheats. “Replicated experiments funded by Defra since 2003 have shown that at a rate of 200kg N/ha, AN yielded more than urea in 77 per cent of cases and gave a yield advantage of more than 1t/ha in one case. “There is little doubt that AN is a much better choice for UK producers than urea, and Nitram is the perfect choice for arable farmers wanting to reduce their cost of production, maximise yields and minimise risks.”

•

• •

Nitram is a very predictable and efficient source of nitrogen manufactured and marketed for over 50 years. Ammonium nitrate (Nitram) is the most efficient source of nitrogen there is and ‘the best option for the environment and farming’ according to Defra research. With consistent manufacture, Nitram prills spread evenly up to wider widths (with a correctly calibrated spreader) maximising application accuracy and minimising environmental concerns. Nitram is supported by CF Fertilisers’ technical advice services such as N-Min and N-Calc to ensure optimum utilisation efficiency.

AGRONOMY UPDATE – EAST Agrovista agronomist Craig Green provides an insight into some wheat and oilseed rape varieties that are giving stand-out performances this season. Many growers will have plans to attend one or more agronomy open days that are being held across the country over the next few weeks. These events, and of course Cereals 2017, will provide a great opportunity to assess up-and-coming varieties and recent arrivals to see which, if any, should be given a tryout on the farm this autumn. With so many varieties to choose from, I’ve put together a shortlist of those that are catching the eye this season.

Winter wheats KWS Zyatt is a bread-making variety with a feed-wheat yield. It is the highest yielding Group 1 variety and suits a first or second wheat slot. It has very good disease resistant scores, is less prone to sprouting than some rivals and grows vigorously in the autumn, and has tillered well in cooler temperatures. So far, it’s really impressive.

A lot of people are growing KWS Siskin for the first time. It is very vigorous and has stayed clean through the season. It brings higher yields to the Group 2 category, and has good specific weight and protein scores. One of only three varieties resistant to all known yellow rust strains, it has a septoria tritici resistance score of 6.8, second-best on the Recommended List. Group 3 variety KWS Basset has the edge on quality compared with stablemate KWS Barrel, and a higher septoria resistance score. It is also good as a second wheat and its high specific weight (the best of the Group 3s) will suit the export market. KWS Kerrin and Shabras are joint highest yielders on the RL. Both are hard Group 4s, both do consistently well across all regions. Kerrin has good all-round disease resistance scores and is resistant to orange wheat blossom midge, Shabras is better on septoria and edges Kerrin on yellow

rust. They suit light and heavy soils. One other wheat worth mentioning is Belepi. It’s not new, but remains a cracking variety for those looking for a truly flexible option after roots or maize, or where drilling is delayed to help control black-grass. It can be drilled from the end of September to the end of March.

Oilseed rape One of the stand-out varieties in trial this season is Annalise. This candidate is resistant to turnip yellows virus (TuYV), an under-rated disease which has been widespread this season, as in most years. This conventional variety has the highest oil content of all the varieties, good gross output and has strong disease resistance ratings. It is likely to replace Amalie on farm. Another candidate, Django, will compete with Elgar on farm this autumn. Django is slightly shorter and giving more consistent high yields. It scores a 6 and 7 for light leaf spot and phoma respectively. DK Exception looks set to replace farmer favourite Incentive thanks to its solid disease ratings. It has been the largest OSR variety sold in Europe

Craig Green.

AGRONOMY UPDATE – SOUTH WEST Crops in the south of England are catching up after timely rains in mid-May, but some agronomy tweaks will be needed, says Agrovista agronomist Esme Shephard. Spring barleys have been slow to get away in my area of Wiltshire. Most were drilled into very dry seedbeds and received no rain for several weeks. Some crops emerged well, but they have developed very slowly and were still tillering in mid-May. The rain has since transformed them, and they are now racing through their growth stages. A close eye will be needed to hit the correct T2 fungicide timing in the spring barley. This application should be made when first awns are visible (GS49). Last year most crops were sprayed in early June, but I suspect they will be later this season. Some crops suffered variable emergence, where seeds went into such dusty seedbeds they didn’t realise they had been drilled! This has led to a range of growth stages in the same fields. We’ll have to assess when most of the field is at GS49 and then spray. I’ll use Jaunt (fluoxastrobin + prothioconazole + trifloxystrobin) at 0.5-litres/ha plus Arizona (folpet) or another multi-site to protect against rhynchosporium, net blotch and rusts. All are likely to be present after the recent unsettled spell. Spring barley can often run short of magnesium and sulphur. I’ll add some Headland MagnuS to enhance chlorophyll production and help maximise grain fill. I’ll also add Velocity, an adjuvant that improves coverage of the leaf surface, aids uptake of active ingredient into the plant and reduces drift. Winter wheats have also perked up and, although shorter than usual, still have potential. My growers maintained a robust SDHI/triazole/chlorothalonil T2 programme and this has stood crops in good stead. T3 ear sprays are imminent, and I’ll be recommending Monkey at 1-litre/ ha. This product contains prochloraz + tebuconazole, both of which have good activity on fusarium and michrodochium fungi that produce mycotoxins in grain. These actives will also control septoria, rusts and sooty mounds. These diseases can reduce grain filling and specific weights if they get onto the ear. The ear spray should be applied between GS61 and 65, the start of flowering to mid-flower. Growers adopting a wait-and-see approach with their T3 should apply one within

Esme Shephard.

three to four days of a rainfall event within that period. The spray is best applied through backward-facing medium or coarse nozzles to optimise coverage of the vertical ear target. Most wheat crops will now be past the danger period for orange wheat blossom midge, when the ear is emerging and befor flowering. Later susceptible varieties should be assessed for thresholds, by counting adults on warm (+15ºC) still evenings – one midge per three ears on feed wheats, and one per six for milling varieties – or by using pheromone or sticky traps. If crops do exceed the treatment threshold, apply lambda-cyhalothrin or Biscaya (thiacloprid) preferably during the early evening when the adults are active. Maize crops have been late to germinate, and some growers opted out of pre-emergence sprays, thinking they wouldn’t have been as effective with the dry conditions. Post-emergence weed control will now be key. Young maize is very uncompetitive and needs to be kept free of weeds to optimise development – maximum yield potential is fixed by the 6-leaf stage. Weedy crops are also more straggly and shallow-rooted, increasing the risk of lodging later on. Elumis (mesotrione + nicosulfuron) at 1-1.5-litres/ha provides good broadspectrum activity. Maister (foramsulfuron + iodosulfuron) can be used instead to control single R-resistant blackgrass, adding Buctril (bromoxynil) as necessary to boost broad-leaved weed control.

AGRONOMY UPDATE – NORTH This time last year Sam Patchett and his growers were dealing with the aftermath of an unbelievably late, wet winter. What a difference 12 months can make!

Of all the crops, winter rapes have been dealing with the conditions best.

The past two seasons have certainly provided us with timely lessons in coping with climate change. In complete contrast to last spring, this year we’ve been concentrating on making the most of almost no April rain. Although, with the cricket Champions Trophy fastapproaching, by the time you read this the rainfall could well be biblical!

Going into mid-May, spring crops are our biggest worry. We have one field of sugar beet drilled in late March at 2–3 leaves in some areas and barely chitted in others, so we won’t be able to win with our weed control. If we look after the beet, the weeds will get away. But if we take care of the weeds we’re bound to knock the beet. Even on our heavy land we’ve

springs beans still to germinate and spring barley looking very meagre too. Both will have a lot of catchingup to do when we actually get some decent rain. Although they’ve had little – if any – rain, however, I’ve seen some lovely green and well-established crops of spring beans, barley and linseed on one farm where all were direct drilled.

it remains dry right through to the time you’re reading this. In which case, disease will be the least of our worries. To combat the stress of the dry weather we’ve been upping our wheat micro-nutrient inclusions at T1 – mainly manganese and magnesium mixes – and will definitely be doing so again at T2 unless we get more than enough rain by then.

Liquid ferts

OSR best

Also showing its advantages this season is liquid fertilisation. Even crops that had no rain at all following liquid application have clearly takenup nitrogen while many getting it out of the bag – especially on the lighter land – are looking really hungry. Thankfully, the spring drought is yet to have a visible impact on most of our generally well-rooted winter cereals. It has also held disease development back nicely. Even so, we’ve had to deal with worrying levels of yellow rust in susceptible wheats at T1 – particularly where they didn’t get a T0. And April showers insufficient to do more than wet the surface, together with some heavy dews, have meant there’s plenty of active septoria in the bottoms of most crops. So we certainly won’t be cutting back on our T2s; unless, of course,

Of all the crops, our winter rapes have been dealing with the conditions best. With big root systems, most came out of the winter strongly and have developed well-structured canopies. A cold, dry start to the sclerotia germination window allowed us to hold off on our single flowering spray, targeting alternaria and light leaf spot as much as sclerotinia. The rapes have also been benefitting from a decent amount of sunshine at flowering, which doesn’t look like being overly prolonged either, leaving them well set up. Assuming they get enough moisture as well as solar radiation to carry them through, that is. Agrii agronomist, Sam Patchett works with growers across West and South Yorkshire as well as his own family’s farm (sam.patchett@ agrii.co.uk) ■

Mild winters focus attention on BYDV The mild winters of the past two years mean that growers may need to reconsider their BYDVcontrol strategy. That’s the warning from Bayer development manager Nigel Adam (right). In previous years, cold weather has contributed to BYDV control through killing off some of the bird cherry oat aphids overwintering in cereal crops, he points out. It’s generally accepted that these aphids can survive to minus 7°C. Once they stop flying, usually in early December, they burrow deep into the leaf sheaths which act like a blanket, says Nigel. He says: “Despite the sharp frosts in January, overall last winter was pretty mild, as was winter 2015. “There would have been many regions in the UK that didn’t experience low enough temperatures

last winter to affect bird cherry oat aphid populations, and certainly not within the leaf sheath where the aphids will be found.” Nigel recalls a scenario from Suffolk last winter, where a grower was disappointed to see BYDV appearing in his wheat crop despite applying Deter (clothianidin). He says: “He’d drilled in early October and used Deter-treated seed which would have given about 10 weeks’ protection from aphid feeding. “However, due to the relatively cool weather and low aphid pressure, he hadn’t followed up with a pyrethroid spray in early- to midDecember, which would have killed any aphids subsequently entering the crop. “Unfortunately, while the weather was cold, it wasn’t cold enough to

kill off the aphid population. Hence they were able to infect the crop with BYDV.” With this in mind, Nigel offers five tips for BYDV control in mild conditions. The first is to monitor temperature. Keep a record of the temperature throughout winter and remember that, although aphids can’t survive below minus 7°C, it will be warmer within the leaf sheaths, he says. When aphid activity is unusually late, or in areas of particularly high risk where aphid activity is heavy and prolonged and mild weather predominates, crops treated with Deter may require a follow-up pyrethroid treatment. Early September drillings may need a follow-up spray 6–8 weeks after drilling, mid- to late-September drillings after 8–10 weeks, and early October drillings after 10 weeks, Nigel suggests.

He also recommends using data from the AHDB’s alerts to understand the number of aphids flying. Last winter there were still aphids flying in mid-December across the country, which highlights how mild conditions can affect activity, he says. It only needs to be a few degrees above zero for bird cherry oat aphids to emerge from leaf sheaths and begin to spread the virus, even if they’ve stopped flying. Therefore keep an eye on temperatures as spring approaches and use a follow-up pyrethroid spray, says Nigel. Finally remember that BYDV is an invisible disease from infection until several months after. In winter barley symptoms usually express by April following drilling and in May for winter wheat. The earlier the infection, the greater the impact on yield. So, if in doubt, get protection from the moment of drilling, Nigel says. ■

Field f cus With the dry spell breaking in the middle of May, there’s optimism from our agronomists for the rest of the season, although crops will need careful management, they say. Dominic Kilburn writes.

Northamptonshire AICC and Indigro agronomist Damian McAuley is based in Northamptonshire but also advises growers on land in Bedfordshire, Leicestershire and Lincolnshire. Despite the very dry and cold spring, most of the sugar beet crops are fine, said Damian, speaking in mid-May. He suggested that the mid-March drilled crops found just enough moisture at the time which resulted in even germination. “The last time it rained properly ahead of the long, dry spell was at the time of drilling. There’s only been one farm where we have had difficulties and where uneven emergence has made the application of early herbicides that much more challenging. “That said, early weed control in sugar beet is always a balancing act between getting product on early enough and not harming the young beet plants, but uneven emergence always makes the timing of that application more difficult,” he said. “Those that drilled their beet much later in March might well have crops that are suffering with uneven emergence now, but it will depend on what their cultivation strategy

was,” he added. The dry weather has affected some of Damian’s late-drilled spring cereals although rainfall at the time of writing has relieved some of those concerns. Spring crops, he said, are the ultimate solution where delayed drilling is required for the control of black-grass and so some spring barley is being grown in “challenging areas” by growers with little experience of the crop. “On some of the heavier land where seedbeds were either underworked in the autumn or overworked in the spring we saw some patchy emergence but I think that the main concern for the crop is the potential lack of malting quality,” he explained. “There’s been a lot of nitrogen that sat on the ground during the dry spell, not being taken up by crops, and there could be a lot of nitrogen heading to the ears later in the season,” Damian suggested. Despite a rooting system which develops less well compared with some other spring cereals, his spring wheats look in good order. Disease-wise, the risk in winter wheat has been high but the pressure low, said Damian, who pointed out that key disease pathogen such as septoria has been at the bottom of wheat crops all season, however, with good

conditions for travelling so far, spray timings had been spot on. “With large amounts of residual nitrogen in the ground, wheat crops will need careful management from here on – lodging could be an issue with some wheat crops,” he warned. Damian is planning to visit the Cereals event in Lincolnshire later this month with vigorous oilseed rape varieties high on his list of priorities for the event. In addition, a low disturbance subsoiler/drill, which can place fertiliser at the same time as drilling is an area of interest. “With the threats to the crop we are facing each season such as flea beetle, good establishment of OSR has become critical, and anything that will help it do that better is worth considering,” he concluded. Damian can be contacted on email: damian@indigro.co.uk.

North Yorkshire Also speaking in mid-May, Yorkshire Arable Advice and AICC agronomist Andrew Fisher said that he was just handing out his T2 recommendations, despite the fact that T1 applications to some wheat crops had only just been completed. Crops were drilled over a longer period last autumn and the cold start to this spring meant that some of the later drilled crops were slow to get going, and therefore the gap between T1 and T2 had narrowed, he suggested. Andrew said that, despite interest in the two new SDHI fungicides this season; Elatus Era (benzovindiflupyr + prothioconazole) and Ascra Xpro (bixafen + fluopyram + prothioconazole), he was able

to hold off with SDHI chemistry at T1 due to the extremely dry conditions at the time and applied, instead, Amistar Opti (azoxystrobin + chlorothalonil) + epoxiconazole, resulting in a cost-saving application. His T2 recommendations however included Elatus Era, Elatus Plus (benzovindiflupyr) and Ascra Xpro on a selection of farms to compare with the standard SDHI chemistry of Adexar (epoxiconazole + fluxapyroxad) and Aviator 235 Xpro (bixafen + prothioconazole). One or two clients either have weighbridge facilities, or yield mapping on combines, to enable accurate assessment of the cost:benefit of the new products. According to Andrew, PGR applications had almost come to a standstill by mid-May, on account of the dry conditions, but he was glad that the forward crops on fertile land had received a PGR earlier in the month to hold them back. “The spring barley and spring oats on lighter land went in early in the spring and they currently look good,” he commented. “And on stronger land they are also OK where an effort to reduce cultivations was made to get them established. “That said, if we had not had recent rain, I think one or two of the spring crops would have got into a bit of trouble,” he pointed out. Oilseed rape flowered for longer than usual, noted Andrew, and, in places, a second spray during flowering was needed. Crops, he said, have podded up well and with a lot more green leaf this year. “There’s good potential out there but, as ever, we need the help of the weather to see them through,” he added.

Use variety resistance to combat light leaf spot For many growers, oilseed rape remains the most profitable and convenient break-crop option. Unfortunately, it is not without its challenges. One of the main threats to oilseed rape profitability is disease, specifically light leaf spot – with data from Crop Monitor highlighting its increasing importance. Between 2005 and 2014 (the latest period for which data is available) the impact of light leaf spot to growers in terms of lost output is reckoned to have increased seven-fold to more than £140m a year. No other disease has had such an impact on the performance of oilseed rape. An October 2016 report from AHDB Cereals & Oilseeds, identified several reasons for this escalation, such as the increased frequency of oilseed rape in the rotation and the popularity of low- or no-tillage cultivations, both of which have led to more inoculum being present to spread disease, however the weather also plays a part and it is not always possible to apply fungicides before disease takes hold. Nonetheless, variety choice is another way to approach the problem and the obvious starting point. In its report, the AHDB advocates greater use of those varieties with better disease resistance, specifically those with a score of 6 or above. Adopting it may be easier than many realise. Most of the varieties of the RL carry a light leaf spot score of 6 or better, but only a few combine this with a similar level of resistance to phoma stem canker.

Understanding LLS While the ultimate effect of light leaf spot in crops is lower yields, it manifests in several ways, including stunting of plants and reduced pod

strength. This can promote losses through pod shatter. “Varieties with better resistance show a greater ability to carry the disease without incurring the losses to the same extent,” said University of Hertfordshire’s Professor Bruce Fitt (right), speaking at a KWS light leaf spot seminar in the spring. “However, some fungicides are often ineffective against the light leaf spot pathogen and while we see evidence of cultivar resistance against light leaf spot in England, this is often not seen in Scotland. This suggests the pathogens in the North have developed a level of fitness beyond that of those in England. “And so moving to varieties with better disease resistance is the best means of protecting crops and limiting losses,” added Professor Fitt.

The case for a Candidate Recommended List Candidate, Butterfly, is expected to capture the interest of growers this summer as the stand-out candidate among a small collection of promising new varieties to combine high gross output with excellent disease resistance. “Light leaf spot resistance is now a more important consideration than gross output for some growers,” said Agrii arable seed product manager Barry Barker (right). “It’s a reflection of the

difficulties some are Chart 1: Variety disease resistance is crucial when experiencing in fungicide applications are delayed controlling the disease on farm and is how we became interested in Butterfly,” he added. A gross output of 106 and 112 per cent of controls in the East & West and North respectively, Butterfly is among the best of the candidates expected be added to the Recommended List later this almost certain to be present, early year, but its combination of other infection is symptom-less. Hence characteristics what sets it apart from why the threshold for fungicide others on the list, said Mr Barker. application at this time is zero – see “It has the characteristics growers Chart 1 for the results. want. Its yield and oil content is at “The results demonstrate the the top end having been consistent importance of keeping the crop throughout two years of trials, while disease-free ahead of stem extension its combination of light leaf spot and to protect yield.

Straw processor optimises milk yield potential A revolutionary straw chopper, designed and manufactured in the UK, is expected to prove popular with large-scale dairy farms and contractors. David Williams reports.

Tomahawk C12 Calibrator • Straw processing capacity; 11t/hr at up to 20 per cent moisture. • Hammer mill action; 56 rotor-mounted 15mm boron steel hammers. • Rotor speed; 2,000rpm. Hammer tip speed; 73m/second. • Eight vee-belt drive to rotor. • Hydraulic oil capacity; 150 litres. However good the mix quality, straw which remains longer than other ration constituents can be sorted and rejected by cattle, preferring other ingredients which means only part of the allocated ration per head is actually consumed and rumen capacity is partly utilised.”

Dry cows in peak condition

Teagle’s Tomahawk C12 Calibrator is designed to chop straw to an optimum length for dry cows to boost condition ahead of calving.

Teagle’s Tomahawk bale processor range has gained a superb reputation for quality and performance during 30 years’ production and is a firm favourite with UK farmers, attracting a generous market share. Most are used to prepare straw for bedding, spreading direct into pens and feeding baled or clamped silage to livestock. The new Tomahawk C12 Calibrator is different. Not only is it

Teagle’s most innovative product to date, but it has also required the greatest investment in research and development. “Feeding straw as part of a mixed ration prepared by a mixer wagon is quite hit and miss,” explained Teagle UK sales manager Jim Squires. “It ties up the tractor for long periods each day and, unless blades are maintained from brand new, ability to chop straw thoroughly is limited.

A large oval-shaped feed hopper makes loading of bales of any size and shape easy.

Design objectives Essential to Calibrator design were; • Ability to take round or square bales • Top-loading • Power requirement of 120hp+ • Chop control system • Ability to operate in the field and load into lorries or trailers • Capable of 8–12t/hr • Road transportable The first prototype was built in March 2014 and, in September 2015, a more advanced version incorporating hydraulics and electronic control was produced. A range of screen sizes allows chop length of 2–10cm to be easily achieved.

Optimising dry cow condition ahead of calving stresses contributes to better health, fewer problems and lower vets’ bills, argues Penzance, Cornwall-based farmer Gavin Rodda. The family farm trading as JS Rodda & Son has been involved with the Calibrator’s development since the initial prototypes commenced work, almost two years ago. Livestock nutritionist Andy Hawken of Three Counties Feeds works with the Roddas ensuring high yields of quality milk are maintained. He explained that even if cows consume long straw, it offers less benefit than short-chopped straw. “Inclusion of concentrate in the dry cow diet can have a number of benefits including an opportunity to balance protein, helping the cow acclimatise to a diet for the lactation. It’s important to avoid too many changes in diet around the time of calving and structural fibre is also needed. The ends of a piece of straw scratch and stimulate the rumen,” he explained. “So, even if you can get the cow to consume long straw, the benefit is limited as each piece has only two ends per stem. By chopping each straw into smaller lengths, each with two ends, we increase rumen stimulation and maintain peak condition ready for calving and milk production. “Also, if the rumen is only part full only the lower section is kept active but if we can achieve a full rumen and keep it stretched by feeding straw with the rest of the ration, then the total inner surface is stimulated and feed processing efficiency increases.”

Consistent chop quality Chopping action is provided by a high capacity hammer mill. Bales of any size or shape can be placed in the top-mounted oval hopper, which

rotates the bale exposing a section to the flailing hammers. Hopper rotation speed adjusts straw feed rate and different size screens regulate chop intensity and straw length. Chopped straw is discharged onto a belt conveyor with a maximum 4.2m discharge height for loading straight into trailers or hoppers, or on to piles for use later.

Hammer flails chop the straw with length adjusted using swappable screens.

The Calibrator requires at least 120hp, but processes large square bales in under 2 minutes, saving almost 40 minutes compared with a typical mixer wagon. Teagle claims chopped straw output up to 11t/hour for straw up to 20 per cent moisture, and an integral speed regulator maximises straw feed rate while maintaining optimal rotor speed. The chopped straw is then added to a ration for mixing by conventional mixer wagon, with feed prepared including straw of ideal length in just 10 minutes or so. Built-in hydraulics with an integral cooling pack drive the hopper and elevator. An auto-reversing fan helps keep the cooling screen debris-free.

Remote control The Calibrator can be operated from the tractor cab, but innovative Bluetooth control from a Teagledesigned touchpad provides remote operation from up to 50m. This allows the bale loader operator to adjust the Calibrator during work, including adjusment of feed rate as bale quality and condition varies. The Calibrator automatically stops the feed if the chopper becomes overloaded and a flashing light on the chopper alerts the operator. Teagle expects the Calibrator to appeal to large dairy farms, and to contractors providing a service to multiple farms. The unit is continued over...

User experience The press launch, at Rosemorran Farm, Gulval, in Cornwall provided

an opportunity to see the Calibrator in action and to seek the views of farmer Gavin Rodda who has used it. The family farm trades as JS Rodda & Son and includes 360ha (900 acres) of arable and grassland between two sites. Crops include potatoes, maize and cereals grown for feed and the dairy herd includes 300 Friesian/ Holstein cows plus followers, milked twice per day. Average yield is 9,500 litres per lactation and the herd is autumn calving and grazed. High milk quality is important to the farm as it supplies Davidstow Creamery which manufactures Cathedral City cheddar cheese. Butterfat above four per cent is required.

Milk quality and herd health “Livestock health is everything to us,” explained Gavin. “It’s not just about optimising yield and milk quality. The public eye is on us all constantly but for us our dairy herd is a passion. We have always been aware of the benefits of short straw and try to source it from rotary combines as it tends to be more ‘damaged’ than straw from conventional combines. But it still isn’t as good as mechanically chopped straw.” Since adding pre-chopped straw to the feed mix, butterfat and protein have increased. “It’s a healthier means of increasing butter fat than adding fats to the diet, and cheaper too,” said nutritionist Andy Hawken. Gavin agrees; “For our herd; the ability to improve butterfat without adding supplements saves us £7,500 per year, plus it’s better for the cows. General herd health has improved,” he added. “We have had only two cases of calf scour and with reduced incidence of mastitis, and other conditions ,our average veterinary costs have dropped by £18/cow compared with previous years. “We can’t claim this is a direct result of using the Calibrator,” he continued, “but it usually follows that if the cow is healthier then calf health

most cows are dry,” he said.

User verdict So will Gavin be investing in a Calibrator after trialling it successfully? “Our cows are bred to produce 9,000–10,000 litres of milk per year,” he said. “Herd health is a big reason to invest and we have seen definite improvement. For our herd size the total cost would be too much, but we would certainly consider investing with neighbours if the opportunity arose, and if a contractor in the area offered the chopping service we would definitely use it.”

Sorting of food by the cows is impossible so the intended straw quantity is consumed, said Gavin Rodda (left) who is pictured with livestock nutritionist Andy Hawken.

improves too and with it comes better disease resistance. There will be benefits we haven’t noticed yet as well. If we can improve a few aspects of our husbandry then other things also tend to work better.” Gavin said total straw use hasn’t changed, but less is wasted. “We feed as much as before but, whereas 90 per cent of what we cleaned up each day was straw separated out by the cows, now it’s almost all consumed as part of the total ration. We didn’t used to feed straw to milking cows as they left it, but now they eat it too. Straw is a relatively cheap part of our total feed cost and we use approximately 800kg/day during late summer and early autumn when

“It takes two minutes to do with the Calibrator what it would take a mixer wagon 45 minutes to achieve,” said Teagle sales director Tom Teagle. “No other high capacity machine can meet the exacting requirements of European farmers to provide the time savings and achieve the chop control and consistency of the Tomahawk C12 Calibrator.” The new Calibrator will be available in limited numbers this year, with production commencing in June. It was displayed at Muck & Grassland for the first time, followed by its international launch at Agritechnica in November. With a single pair of screens, it has a list price of £56,850. ■

Competition winner receives tractor Farmers Guide and Case IH ‘Win a Tractor’ competition winners the Morris family of Clun, Shropshire has taken delivery of the Case IH Maxxum 135MC. The tractor joins the machinery fleet on the family’s mixed farm for six months. Pictured with the tractor are (l-r) Neil Morris, Case IH area sales manager Andrew Davies, Graham Morris, Brian (Wilf) Morris and local Case IH main dealer Western Farm Machinery director, Ian Mills. Missing from the picture is Vic Morris, who will also be using the new tractor.

delighted to have the opportunity to work with the Morris family providing support and advice when needed, and believe they will be impressed with the whole package we offer together with Case IH.”

Delighted by win

The Morris family of Clun, Shropshire is enjoying six months’ free use of a superb Case IH Maxxum 135 MC tractor and loader, courtesy of the recent Farmers Guide and Case IH ‘Win a tractor’ competition. David Williams was there for the handover. Trading as SJC Morris & Sons, the family has farmed at Whitcott Evan Farm, Clun since 1939, when 100ha (242 acres) was purchased. Now the farmed area is approximately 400ha (1,000 acres), on five sites – three owned and two rented, most of which is grassland. Much of the farmed land is on the steep slopes of the Clun Valley, although flat uplands at 1,300ft are used for some arable crops. The main enterprises include a 180head suckler herd composed mainly of Limousin as well as some British Blue, with calves sold as stores mainly at Bishops Castle and Knighton markets at 10–14 months. There is also a large sheep flock, mainly Suffolk cross and some mules. The Morris family breeds its own cattle and sheep replacements as far as possible, but will also buy in breeding ewes at the local markets and bulls for new bloodlines. Store lambs are also bought in when the market is favourable. Most grass is improved with some permanent pasture on steep slopes but there is also some improved grassland within the crop rotation providing young leys for forage. Arable

cropping accounts for approximately 80ha (200 acres) and is almost all to provide feed and straw for the livestock. “All the manure is applied to the arable and harvest land while a lot of straw is bought in.” explained Neil Morris, who is the third generation of the Morris family involved on the farm. “It’s valuable to us and we plaster our land in as much muck as possible, especially in a dry year, to maintain soil condition and fertility.” The crop rotation is typically grass followed by wheat or winter barley, then stubble turnips on winter barley land followed by spring barley then winter oats. The stubble turnips provide winter grazing, supplemented later by corn fed in hoppers. Cattle are housed from early November and let out for field grazing in May, after TB testing. Sheep are scanned in December and early January after which twin and triplet ewes are housed. One of the five sites has no buildings and is mainly used for arable cropping, receiving a lot of manure but also used occasionally for sheep grazing when grass is in the rotation.

Useful addition to fleet The farm’s machinery fleet includes four tractors, of three different brands and two telescopic handlers. Two Claas tractors perform most arable tasks, with 150 and 180hp and there is a smaller 100hp Valtra and a 110hp Deutz-Fahr used for loader work. Both handlers are Manitou. The loan tractor is the latest Maxxum 135MC with a 4-cyl, 135hp (rated), 169hp (max) engine, 17x16

50kph semi-powershift transmission equipped with a factory-fitted LRZ120 2.3t 4.1m self-levelling loader. “We have never had a Case IH tractor before,” explained Graham. “We have heard good things about them and this will be an excellent opportunity for us to try the brand and get to know our local dealer. “The Maxxum 135 is an ideal size for us, especially from this time of the year on, and we will make the most of its capabilities during our busiest periods. It will easily handle most of the attachments currently used on the Manitous, which are too big for our own loader tractor. During autumn we feed the cows out in the fields, carting bales each day and the 50kph transmission will be superb for that. We would far rather use a tractor than a telescopic handler where we can away from the yard as it is faster on the road and does less ground damage when conditions are wet.”

The competition required entrants to answer questions about the tractor specification and complete a tiebreaker. More than 150 entries were received from farms across the UK from Cornwall to the Orkney Isles and East Anglia to Wales. “When we saw the competition advertised in Farmers Guide, we were tempted by the prize, but certainly didn’t expect to win,” said Graham. “We have never won anything like this before and were surprised when we received a call from the magazine with the good news. It’s a great prize and will be a real asset on our farm this year. Since the tractor was delivered, we have been finding out about its features and inspecting the build quality. Everything looks great; the cab is comfortable and quiet, and we don’t think it will take long for us to get used to the Multicontroller armrest and make the most of the tractor’s capabilities.” ■

Dealer support Local main dealer Western Farm Services Ltd will look after the tractor. Based in Knighton, Powys, mid-Wales, the business operates from one depot, representing Case IH, McHale and Kverneland along with other brands. “I believe it will be ideal for this farm,” said director Ian Mills. “The Maxxum series is very versatile, great for mixed farms with the power and size to carry out arable tasks but with the manoeuvrability to perform well in the yard. We have supplied many similar tractors to similar users across our trading area and know they are highly regarded by operators. We are

Graham said the 50kph maximum speed will be a benefit with stock and arable cropping on land in five separate blocks, up to seven miles distant from the main base.

Innovation and pedigree valued by Lincs family farm An excellent relationship with the local Massey Ferguson dealer and continued satisfaction with the tractor range has resulted in a Lincolnshire family farm’s loyalty to the brand for more 27 years.

Appreciation of a good pedigree forms the on-going basis for success for Louth, Lincolnshire farmers R & A Needham Farms Ltd, and that applies to the machinery operated as much as to the prizewinning cattle. David Williams reports. The Needham family has farmed at South Cockerington for 120 years and boasts one of the longest-established and largest herds of Charolais cattle in the UK. The farm includes 465 hectares (1,150 acres) of arable land and 60 ha (150 acres) of grass for forage and grazing. About 40ha (100 acres) of ridge and furrow land is down to permanent grass and a further 20ha (50 acres) is in the arable rotation. “We are surrounded by arable farms,” commented farmer Alistair Needham. “It’s ideal for our cattle as, without other livestock nearby, disease risk is reduced.” The family has always been innovative and five generations ago, John Needham had 20 acres on which he bred shire horses. Attention to detail created a reputation for quality stock but the sale of a mare, Cockerington Daisy, for 2,000 guineas in 1920, provided funds to purchase

100 acres of farmland equivalent to more than a million pounds today. A new enterprise commenced breeding Lincoln Red cattle and by the mid-1960s more than 600 were on the farm. The family was one of the first to bring Charolais bloodlines into its herd for breed improvement and the last Lincoln Red was sold in 1986. Now hornless Charolais cattle make up the Cockerington Poll Charolais Cattle herd; bred for their ease of calving, great temperament, ideal carcase and thrifty conversion rates achieved on forage rather than concentrates. “We have 250 head and achieved a 100 per cent calving record for the past two years,” said Ralph Needham. “The breed characteristics we developed are prized and are instrumental in starting several new herds in the UK and overseas every year.” High health status is maintained and males and females are sold

direct from the farm to avoid mixing with other stock at market. “The only time we buy in is for new bloodlines through bulls from Sweden,” explained Ralph. “The health status there is very high and we can be confident that the animals we import are suitable.” Dovetailing the livestock and arable enterprises spreads labour demand through the year and two employees work with the family fulltime. Ralph Needham looks after the pedigree side of the business, helping with farm tasks during busy periods while Alistair’s time is split between the arable and livestock enterprises. Thirty per cent of the farm is just 6ft above sea level and this tends to be heavy land, drained by Lindsey Marsh Drainage Board pumps. Higher land, up to 60ft above sea level is medium loam. Cropping includes winter wheat, winter barley, some of which is grown for feed, oilseed rape and spring oats which are all for feed. “We prefer feeding home-produced rations and oats are an ideal ingredient; easy to use and safe,” explained Alistair. A mill mix unit prepares rations on site.

Machinery strategy With the machinery fleet busy all year around, the decision was made in 1982 to control costs and update the tractors every three years. This Alistair Needham is pictured with one of the current stock of bulls for sale. More about the herd and stock for sale can be found on www.pollcharolais.co.uk

meant all would be under warranty for the time owned. In 1988 the local dealer used by the farm sold its site for a supermarket development. An enterprising salesman offering Massey Ferguson and representing main dealer Peacock & Binnington at Louth took the opportunity to call in and discuss the Needham’s requirements. “Peacock & Binnington has looked after us ever since,” explained Alistair. “Our current 3-tractor fleet of Massey Ferguson 7-series tractors includes our 30th supplied by the dealer. We know we can depend on the brand for reliability and the dealer for its fairness and after sales back-up. The tractors have always been good but reliability has improved in recent years, so we have moved from updating every three years to every four.”

Innovative brand A benefit of recent models is that the latest technology is available to improve productivity. “Massey Ferguson is very innovative,” commented Alistair. “In 1990 we bought our first Datatronic tractors offering wheel slip control for draft operations which improved work rates and efficiency.” In 1996 Peacock & Binnington ceased an agreement with its previous combine supplier in favour of Massey Ferguson. “We were immediately attracted to the possibilities offered by yield mapping technology on the latest models,” explained Alistair. “We saw a system in action in Denmark, after which we ordered a combine with it fitted which proved a very good move. “The local water authority was keen to carry out trials applying sludge to agricultural land,” he continued. “As one of very few farms with yield mapping technology at the time, we were the ideal candidate to provide the contract-farming service as we could accurately record differences in crop performance. Within the farming agreement was a clause offering us first refusal if the land was ever sold allowing us to expand our farm just four years later.” RTK guidance has been used on the farm for four years. An advantage of operating a fleet of modern tractors from the same manufacturer is that the farm’s two GPS receivers can be swapped easily between the combine and the tractors as needed. “With all the tractors guidance-ready it is just continued over...

a matter of plugging in the box as needed,” Alistair stressed. At the time of Farmers Guide’s visit in March, the fleet consisted of two 7616s and a 7624, due to be part-exchanged during April for two new 7818s and a 7726. “We check out competitor machines and usually have demonstrations before confirming our order to make sure Massey Ferguson remains our best option,” said Alistair. “Resale values are good so the cost to change is reasonable but our location is well catered for by main brand dealers and we have three which we know are very good, and closer than Peacock & Binnington. However the

package offered between Massey Ferguson and our dealer is quite exceptional so we haven’t been tempted away,” he said. All the tractors have Dyna-6, 6-speed powershift transmissions. “We had Dyna-4 previously which was

good, but the Dyna-6 is more flexible. We tried a CVT model but it was more complex than we required and an advantage of having three almost identical is that anyone can jump on and use them,” observed Alistair. The farm’s combine is a Centora 7382, equipped with a 25ft Powerflow table and twin oilseed rape feed augers, and Alistair said it suits their farmed area and cropping well. Other machinery supplied by the dealer includes a JCB loader; updated every two years, Kuhn mowers and Lely balers as well as Simba discs. ”The dealer staff know us well as we buy almost everything from the depot,” said Alistair. “It was obvious from when we first changed to Massey Ferguson to deal with Peacock & Bennington that the staff appreciated our business and we have always enjoyed excellent service.

Rural Advice

Keeping the heat out of employee relations This month’s Rural Advice column by Carter Jonas partner Mark Russell focuses on employment rights with advice from Hewitsons Solicitors’ Valerie Lambert. Over the next few weeks, farmers and food processors will be gearing up for their busiest time of the year. To support their more permanent workforce, many of our clients will have hired seasonal workers to ensure the maximum amount of produce is processed. With this in mind, I thought it would be beneficial to focus on employment rights. As agriculture moves forward with technology, work practices and high-level training for operators, our people matter more than ever. With fewer people on farms there is less depth to fall back on. The issue of employment rights and their impact on farming operations at critical times of the year has become more important.

Scenarios to consider: a) Your combine driver is wanting to take two weeks’ holiday during the summer months.

If the combine driver is an employee, best practice is to have a contract of employment in place which has an express term providing that no holiday is permitted during the harvest season. b) A seasonal worker is off sick for four days, leaving a hole in the grain carting rota? Seasonal or casual workers are entitled to statutory sick pay so one option would be to ask a colleague to work overtime, providing that there is compliance with the Working Time Regulations 1998 (WTR) or they opt out of the WTR in order to work increased hours. An employee can self-certify for the first three days of sick leave and a fitness for work note is required after seven days of sick leave. In a contract of employment there is usually a detailed sick clause requiring a full medical report after a certain number of days’ absence. However, seasonal or casual workers

are not subject to such provisions as they usually enter into zero hours contracts. It is very difficult to uncover whether somebody is genuinely sick or not. The Data Protection Act 1998 makes it tricky to monitor an individual and is wrought with elephant traps. Legal advice should be sought before adopting this course of action. It would also be disproportionately costly so there is little protection for companies who engage seasonal or casual workers. c) An employee who always drives off with the trailer up? This is a serious health and safety issue and there should be a clear health and safety policy in place providing that, among other things, the trailer should be properly fixed when being driven. Any breach of the policy should result in disciplinary action, not least because employers are vicariously liable for the actions of their employees. The relevant pieces of legislation are primarily the WTR and the Health and Safety at Work etc Act 1974. As with many of our other

recommendations on occupational rights and partnership arrangements, this comes down to having the right paperwork in place.

Market Update Activity over the first few months of the year has been relatively muted. This is likely reflecting the seasonal nature of the sector, as well as the impact of political uncertainties on the market. Values in the eastern region have also recorded a slight decrease. However, land values in the east increased at a higher rate and to a higher level than in other regions over the previous three years. Therefore, movement off the peak is perhaps more noticeable. There continues to be potential for prices to vary in either direction and, depending on the outcome of the General Election, there may be tax changes in the next budget which could have further implications. ■ Valerie Lambert, partner Hewitsons valerielambert@hewitsons.com Mark Russell MRICS mark.russell@carterjonas.co.uk 07967 555737

Drill versatility encourages innovative cropping Farmers Guide joined UK farmers at the Sky Agriculture farm in France.

Challenges facing UK farmers include fluctuating margins, reduced numbers of active ingredients and increased herbicide resistance. No one-fits-all solution has been identified so far, but David Williams joined a group of farmers visiting the farm at which Sky Agriculture is based in Brittany, France, to find out how managing director and farmer David Guy tackles similar challenges. Opico began importing Sky’s EasyDrill in 2015, responding to demand from UK growers for a versatile drill capable of establishing crops within all types of cultivation regimes and ground conditions. The EasyDrill is based on the successful Moore drill coulter design with a leading depth gauge wheel, a serrated seeding disc with a skim coulter, followed by two metal press wheels. It is a true minimal disturbance drill with its disc coulter running at just 3.5 degrees to the direction of travel and effective depth control results from the disc coulter's position mid-way between the front gauge, and rear press wheels. Up to 250kg coulter pressure is available, and it can be prioritised to the front wheel, centre disc coulter or rear press wheel to suit conditions. The simple coulter design and low soil movement means it is easy to pull, and Opico claims just 90hp is needed for the 3m version, allowing smaller tractors to be used saving weight, compaction and fuel. The EasyDrill can operate on consolidated ploughed land, within a min-till regime or as a direct drill and into stubble or grass, but its ability to operate in heavy trash and standing crops and ability to meter three different seeds or products simultaneously, and drill them to two different depths, means it offers extra possibilities for cover crop situations.

Mixed seed drilling A split hopper, with a movable partition, can be used for seed and fertiliser, two different seed types, or seeding with slug pellet application as each compartment has its own metering and distribution providing flexibility of rates and placement.

Between the main disc coulter and the rear press wheel is a second seed chute allowing a second crop to be planted simultaneously, separately and at a different depth. Further flexibility is provided by a smaller ‘Pro-hopper’ mounted externally and with its own precision metering for granules such as Avadex (tri-allate) or smaller seeded crops. It all sounds complex but feedback from current users suggests its simple, practical design means performance is reliable and it is easy to experiment to achieve best results in variable seasons. Reduced black-grass germination, significant fuel savings and successful crop establishment into almost any seedbed are all reported. However, for those considering companion and cover cropping the EasyDrill offers numerous possibilities.

Sky centre of excellence Ferme de la Conillais has been farmed by David Guy (left) since 2002. He uses cover crops extensively and explained that they have been compulsory in Brittany since 2000 to reduce soil run-off, mainly because the cycle time between rain falling on fields, entering rivers, then entering public drinking water is short in the region, so contamination from nitrates and other agrochemicals shows up quickly. Like many UK farms, David has a severe grass weed problem. Before he took on the farm it was ploughed each year, growing continuous

wheat. This was unsustainable and he looked at methods of improving his soils and brought new crops into the rotation, moving to oilseed rape, wheat and barley. He moved to minimum tillage which saved time and reduced costs, using a disc cultivator then sub-soiling every three years and he admits this was very profitable. “The fields were just full of ryegrass,” he said. “Its resistance forced us to look at control methods other than chemicals, and we could see that part of the problem was that we were seeding wheat too early in the autumn. We needed a crop canopy to control weed growth when the land would otherwise be bare.” Buckwheat was an early success for the farm. Drilled early enough after harvest it created an effective canopy and, with its 100-day growing season, it yielded a second harvest some years when the season allowed. “After buckwheat the fields are always spotless,” David explained. With ryegrass remaining an issue within the min-till regime, David contemplated direct drilling to reduce soil disturbance. He heard of the Sky drill’s development and discussed with the Sky Drill team at Sulky its suitability for his farm. His experience and knowledge of farming and crop husbandry was the basis for an agreement under which Sky Agriculture was formed and began operating from the farm. David’s presentation to UK farmers was more about husbandry techniques than the Sky drill’s design, but he stressed that without its negligible soil disturbance or ability to drill seeds of different sizes to different depths in a single pass, his job would be much more difficult. “Modern machinery travels on the same soil as the lighter machines in the past,” he said.

“Compaction is pushed deeper, down to 60cm at times. Worms can sort it out, but it takes a long time. Fragile structures remain fragile whatever tyre or track is used and anything we can do to reduce traffic and weight is a benefit.”

Cover crops essential David stressed that many farmers still see cover crops as a burden, whereas he views them as a profitable investment. “We treat them as any other crop,” he said. “Thought needs to go into which will be suitable and it mustn’t be something similar to crops in the rotation otherwise disease and pest carryover could be a factor. Effective cover crops put in immediately after harvest remove excess soil moisture, allowing easy drilling later in the season. They help the ground resist traffic damage and recover quicker. Covering the ground significantly reduces our grass weed issues and we now spray just once in the autumn, while drilling into the cover crop direct means no pre-emergence sprays are needed. All the time the cover crop grows where the ground would otherwise be bare improves soil structure and condition. Thinking of soil as our factory working every day of the year demonstrates that if nothing grows August to midOctober, then the factory is closed and we gain nothing from it.” David’s cover cropping can include up to 14 varieties in a mix, and he is a firm believer in nitrogen fixing through cover and companion crops rather than buying it. “The air is 80 per cent nitrogen,” he said. “Why buy it when we can collect it for free?” His companion cropping includes a field drilled with wheat and peas. Last year, a trial field was drilled separately in three sections with wheat, peas and a mix of half wheat and half peas together. With no continued over...

Cover crops are compulsory in France and have been required in Brittany since 2000.

What’s not to like?

nitrogen the wheat yielded 4.7t/ha. With 185kg/ha nitrogen added, wheat yielded 6.3t/ha but the area drilled with peas and wheat together, but no nitrogen, achieved 6.4t/ha. The farm tour included a field in which beans and triticale were grown together. Both organic, they will be harvested using the farm’s Axial Flow combine harvester and a contract has already been agreed for 350 Euros/t as a mix. “One issue could be uneven ripening for harvest,” said David, “but if needed we will swath it before harvesting. Immediately after harvest buckwheat will be planted, and then rolled to kill it before drilling straight in.”

Summarising his experience with cover crops, he added. “They fight erosion, fix nitrogen, recycle nutrients, develop biological activity, create organic matter, support traffic, raise soil stability, allow later seeding safely, restore porosity and encourage root activity, help control weeds and produce food for animals. They are definitely an investment and with the Sky EasyDrill we have reduced machinery costs, fuel use, chemical dependence but achieve similar yields to full cultivation regimes. Conventional farming puts many variable factors out of our control but our new system means we can better determine what will happen.” ■

Essex farmer Richard Cottis farms at Rochford, trading as H Cottis & Son. The all-arable farm is approximately 645ha (1,600 acres) and crops are all combinable including winter wheat, spring wheat, peas, spring beans, winter beans and linseed. Oilseed rape is usually included in the rotation but failed this year. “We are considering options for low disturbance and zero-tillage crop establishment,” he explained. “We use minimum tillage currently but need a drill which can penetrate concrete-hard London clay in a dry season. Having tried several options including the EasyDrill, I think there is a place for it on our farm. The main reason for moving to it is that we are struggling against resistant grass weeds and this would be a useful tool. It would have to replace our current 6m disc drill because the Sky drill would be a big investment.” He said if conditions allow he would zero-till where possible, but would retain the plough for pea and spring bean establishment. Spring cereals would be drilled while minimising soil disturbance as much as possible but, for autumn crops min-till cultivations would be retained, then weeds sprayed off ahead of drilling. Asked whether the Sky farm visit had encouraged him to try cover crops, Richard agreed that his main motivation would be to use them after harvest for ground cover, allowing drilling to be pushed back later in the autumn. Richard is pictured (right) with Opico Sky product specialist Joe Redman.

Somerset farmer James Winslade said the Sky farm visit was very useful. Trading as R & JS Winslade & Son the family mixed farm is near Bridgewater and trialled a Sky EasyDrill last year for winter wheat establishment and again this spring. Approximately 300ha (840 acres) is farmed, most of which is clay loam and peat and arable crops include wheat and barley with grass included in the rotation as grazing for a herd of 600 beef cattle. Charolais, Limousin and Simmental-cross-Herefords are bred with additional young-stock bought in for fattening. Winter wheat is sold, but spring crops including barley and oats are milled for feed. All straw is kept for feed and bedding. Flooding in 2014 meant 10,000t of water per acre remained on the land for three months causing severe compaction. “We had considered direct-drilling for some time, but after the floods conventional drills couldn’t penetrate and a used Moore Drill was purchased,” said James. “It did a good job but the disc angle was too severe and soil disturbance allowed weed establishment. After the flood our soils were very acidic and we had a flush of wild oats across the farm. We used selective herbicides on one field four times at great expense and, when oats came up in another field we decided treatment was uneconomical and sprayed off the crop, planting maize instead. It was obvious that each time we moved the soil we were going to encourage more oats to germinate and we looked for an alternative drill. “We tried several, including the EasyDrill which was so good it virtually sold itself, achieving good seed establishment with barely any disturbance. Our soils are challenging with clay and peat in the same fields at times, but the clay dries out earlier making it even establishment difficult, but the EasyDrill copes remarkably well. In those crops established with the drill this year we have had hardly any oat problems at all, and spraying hasn’t been necessary. We are constantly monitoring but it looks promising,” he added. The benefit of reduced soil movement was demonstrated this year with the shortage of spring rain. “We timed our demonstration very well, by coincidence,” he explained. “Winter wheat and all our spring crops were drilled into moist soils and look well. Without the Sky drill I have no doubt they would be struggling, as we have seen in similar dry conditions in the past. We are in the process of confirming our order for the demonstration drill we had this spring.” James said he was fascinated by the visit to David Guy’s farm. “I thought the French were a few years ahead of us with their farming practises, but I was amazed. They are a good decade ahead in reality,” he stressed. “We use the drill for grass seeding too, and my ears pricked up when we were told of copper and manganese-fixing cover crops as our soils are deficient in these minerals. Our soils are very dead and anaerobic after the flood and I believe strategic use of cover crops could help us get life back into our land.”

Has updated pick-up got what it takes?

The market for farm pick-ups is competitive but Isuzu’s D-Max is a firm favourite with a practical design, great build quality and a workhorse appearance. The latest version features many updates over the model it replaces and David Williams has been finding out if it is worthy of the D-Max name. The D-Max has evolved since its launch 15 years ago with regular updates to its specification and appearance. But the latest model is all-new, and the most significant change is a brand new engine. There are single, double and extended cab versions, a choice of 2 or 4wd and five specification levels. 2wd is available only in the single cab base Utility specification. The extended cab, with two rows of seats and a rear-hinged panel for access, is available only with 4wd and in Utility and medium-specification Yukon versions. All are available with double cabs and most offer manual or automatic transmission.

Engine and transmission The new engine, standard across the range, is a 1.9-litre, 4-cylinder diesel, replacing the previous 2.5-litre power unit. Despite being smaller, the power output is almost identical - 164hp for the new unit vs 163hp previously, but torque has dropped from 400Nm to 360Nm. Isuzu claims the 1.9-litre size was chosen for its ability to match efficiency with capability to handle a 1t payload and tow 3.5t. It also meets the latest Euro 6 emissions standards without needing adblue and has a variable geometry turbocharger providing torque across the rev range. Complementing the new engine are two all-new transmissions; 6-speed manual or automatic. The manual box has close ratio gears, allowing greater

The all-new 1.9-litre diesel engine is over half a litre smaller than its predecessor, but achieves similar performance and saves weight, allowing increased payloads.

overlap in the engine’s rev range to make the most of the torque for towing and challenging off-road situations. The new auto transmission ‘learns’ the style of driving, adjusting response accordingly. It also allows manual gear selection. The load buck is similar to before; double-skinned and tough but payload capacity is increased across the range by between 26–154kg to a maximum 1,141kg, depending on model and partly due to the new lighter engine and transmissions. Previously there were four specification levels; Utility, Eiger, Yukon and Utah but a flagship Blade

model has been added. All are upgraded from the previous line-up, with even the entry Utility version having projector headlamps, Hill Assist, variable hill descent control, remote central locking and a full size spare wheel; all useful additions for farm use. The Eiger adds a reversing camera and upgraded trim and the Yukon has a 7in colour touchscreen and 18in alloys. The Utah has keyless door entry, reversing sensors, satellite navigation, a DAB radio and leather trim making it a practical option for agricultural users and it was this model with a double cab and automatic transmission which was supplied for the week-long Farmers Guide test.

Performance The drop in engine size of more than half a litre created suspicion that Isuzu’s pick-up might have lost

Isuzu has launched an all-new D-Max pick-up. Farmers Guide took an extended test-drive to make sure it has what it takes to fill the muddy wellies of its predecessor.

some of its predecessor’s capability. However, the performance of the 1.9-litre diesel is very good and pulling away from standstill the acceleration is surprisingly brisk. The automatic gearbox shifts smoothly and selecting manual on-the-move is achieved just by pulling the transmission lever to the right, then moving it forward and backward to shift ratios. While the new engine performs well, a downside is that it sounds harsh under heavy acceleration, but at cruising speed it becomes more relaxed and maintains speed on gradients without needing extra pressure on the accelerator pedal, or having to change down. Fuel consumption during the test, which involved a mix of farm tracks and main roads and the load bed empty and loaded, averaged 29–31mpg. A characteristic of the adbluefree emissions system is that the particulate filter requires occasional regeneration and a small display on the dashboard indicates the approximate time remaining before the next cycle. The whole process is automatic but can take the driver by surprise when the vehicle is stationary and the engine revs suddenly climb to maintain adequate exhaust temperature.

Ride and comfort The driving position is good and the leather seats are comfortable, with variable heaters standard in the front. The cab makes the most of available space and the legroom is generous for a double-cab pick-up. Headroom is very good too. Steering wheel tilt adjustment is provided but the reach is fixed and taller drivers commented continued over...

pt The new D-Max is better equipped than previous models. The Utah provided for the test is likely to be popular with farms, with practical leather seats.

Practicality

that it was too far forward when the driver’s seat is right back. The rear seat is comfortable for three adults and has three adjustable headrests. Rear leg and headroom is good although if the front seats are fully back then space is restricted, as would be expected.

A rugged load bed is essential for a farm pick-up and the new D-Max is just as functional as its predecessor. There is 106cm clearance between the wheel arches and the total length is 143cm. The tailgate is reassuringly solid to easily support pallets and sacks during loading. The tailgate width is 138cm, courtesy of narrow rear light pillars, making loading easy. The only disappointment in the load bed design was that there are only two tie-down point, both at the rear.

Ownership

Ground clearance is 235mm but where this isn’t adequate there is plenty of guarding for vulnerable components.

Climate control is automatic and effective. Like the previous model, the new D-Max has chunky controls which wouldn’t be out of place in a tractor cab, ideal for use with cold hands or thick gloves. Storage space often suffers when overall space is limited but Isuzu’s designers have provided as much as possible. In the front are two reasonable sized gloveboxes, one of which contains a useful 12-volt 120watt electrical outlet. There are small trays on top of the dashboard and below the steering column. The centre armrest includes handy concealed storage and the front doors have two bottle holders. Rear seat passengers have seat back storage available and small pockets in the doors. If the rear seat isn’t used then the backrest can be folded down providing space for larger items which can be secured using four handy tie down points. The windows are large, and there is little obstruction to vision from the cab pillars. The external mirrors are suitably agricultural in size, allowing a great side and rear view of tight gateways or a trailer. The D-Max handles well and the heavy-duty suspension means very little body roll occurs, even at higher speeds on winding back roads. The firm ride means uneven road surfaces become very noticeable, especially when the truck is unladen. Generous 235mm ground clearance coupled with the test vehicle’s 255/60-18 tyres meant the D-Max coped well with challenging woodland tracks, steering in and out of ruts effortlessly. The vehicle’s underside is well guarded. A feature popular on the previous D-Max was the ability to select 2wd or 4wd on-the-move at any speed, and this is retained on the latest model. All that is needed is to twist the selection dial to 4wd and the system looks after engagement.

Isuzu is clearly confident of its new pick-up’s quality credentials and provides a 5-year, 125,000-mile warranty. Service intervals are 12,000 miles or 24 months and vehicles come

with 5 years’ roadside rescue and recovery cover, a 3-year paint warranty and 6-year anti-corrosion warranty. The Utah double-cab auto, as tested, is priced at £25,149 and the equivalent model with a manual transmission costs £24,149.

Verdict It’s hard to argue against the Isuzu as a practical farm pick-up. It looks right, it feels right and the cost is competitive compared with the competition. The warranty package is superb and will reassure anyone who hasn’t previously owned an Isuzu. Performance on and off-road is good and while there are plenty of pick-ups offering a smoother ride at high speeds on main roads, the Isuzu achieves a great compromise as a solution for those also needing

The rear load bed is practical and spacious. The Utah double-cab auto tested can carry 1,091kg and tow 3.5t.

a functional farm tool capable of withstanding typical farm treatment. Backed up by a superb network of dealers, most of which are geared up to support farm users, the latest D-Max will remain a favourite. ■

Strong trade at Oxfordshire farm dispersal sale t Perfect weather and attractive lots ensured strong demand at a dispersal sale organised by Brown & Co in late March.

p This JCB TM270 articulated telescopic loader was on a ‘Y-plate’ and first registered in 2001. It had worked 5,314hrs and was in very tidy condition. The winning bid was £20,600.

This 56-bale Logic bale carrier was tidy and made £570.

A farm machinery and equipment dispersal sale at Islip near Kidlington, Oxfordshire was organised by Brown & Co’s Banbury office. The sale was on the instruction of CJ Chaffey who had retired after 12 years at Hillside Farm and included almost 200 lots ranging from modern tractors to older classics and a large selection of implements, workshop equipment and sundries. Brown & Co had worked with the vendor previously and the three auctioneers on the sale day were Thomas Birks, David Thorpe and Will Abbott. “There was strong demand for all lots, but especially the tractors,” explained Brown & Co land agent Christopher Ashley. “Trade and

New in 1994 and on an ‘M-plate’ this John Deere 6400 Power Quad with a 30kph transmission was on 16.9R38 rear and 14.9R24 front tyres, had worked just 4,543hrs and made £14,100.

Owned by the family from new this 1970 Massey Ferguson 135 had a cab, Multi-Power and a pick-up hitch and was registered on a ‘J-plate’. It had recorded 6,105hrs and in very tidy order it made £3,000.

private buyers were all involved in the bidding and we had a lot of famers from the local area and further south while there was also a strong presence of dealers from the eastern counties at the sale. “The machinery was well looked after and tidy, much of it owned from new and even an elderly Massey Ferguson 135 had been owned by the family since it was delivered in 1970, and used on a previous farm,” he added. Christopher said approximately 250 people attended the sale, encouraged by ideal weather which helped ensure the strong trade.

This John Deere 7710 Power Quad tractor was new in 2002, on a ’52-plate’ and had worked 6,865hrs. It had triple-link suspension, three spools and was on 650/65R42 rear and 540/65R30 front tyres. It fetched the second highest price on the day at £28,200.

John Deere 40-series tractors are always in strong demand and this 2040S 2wd had a 20kph transmission, a single spool valve and a pick-up hitch. It had recorded only 5,759hrs since new in 1983 and sold for £5,900.

The star lot was this Claas 430 Tucano, in excellent condition. It was new in 2013 and had worked just 310 engine - and 218 drum hours. It had five straw walkers, 3d sieves, a straw chopper plus a chaff spreader, a 5.4m Vario header and an oilseed rape kit. It was fitted with a Claas Quantimeter to measure moisture and yield. Other equipment included a rear camera and a header trailer and the winning bidder from Hungary paid £78,000.

Dating from 1989 and on a ‘G-plate’ this Land Rover 110 LWB had an automatic transmission and a PTO-driven winch. The recorded mileage was 108,025 and the vehicle had been SORN. The winning bidder paid £2,150.

John Deere 6800 tractors are in demand, especially in tidy condition and the £16,600 paid for this 1994 example on an ‘L-plate’ and with a Quicke Q950 loader resulted from considerable interest on the sale day. It was equipped with three spools, had worked 9,008hrs and was on 600/65R38 rear and 540/65R24 front tyres. It sold to a farmer from Buckinghamshire.

Two Bailey grain trailers were on offer, with consecutive serial numbers and both in excellent order, dating from 2014. They were 11t models, with double axles and super-single tyres and wheels. They were fitted with grain chutes and sheets and sold for £5,100 each.

Self-propelled diet feeding saves time and money

Opico has added Strautmann selfpropelled diet feeders to its range, available with single and twin auger mixers and capacities up to 20m³.

outer face is exposed to the greatest wear,” explained David. “Replacing only this outer section is much cheaper than a complete auger. It’s a relatively new option but customers are choosing it partly because it will help protect future resale values, reducing ownership costs.”

Feed up to 350 cattle per hour

Diet feeders have become the norm for cattle feeding, combining efficiency and accuracy unmatched by alternative systems for most farms. Recent years have seen the introduction of selfpropelled versions offering even greater work-rates. David Williams has been trying out the newest to arrive in the UK. Diet feeders offer advantages for dairy farms of all sizes. Even smaller units benefit from time savings, and improved milk quality and yields through accurate ration composition and thorough mixing. But allocating a tractor for up to 45 minutes while each load is mixed and then for time to feed is expensive in capital, maintenance and fuel, and trailed versions usually also require an additional machine for loading. Self-propelled and self-loading diet feeders remain a relatively new concept in the UK, for many appearing a luxury, but Strautmann importer for the UK Opico suggests otherwise. “Just a few decades ago self-propelled sprayers entered the market and few thought they would catch on, as mounted and trailed sprayers were the norm,” explained managing director James Woolway. “But as larger farms invested in the new technology, benefits became clear and now they are a common sight on farms of all sizes. Livestock

are fed every day and herds don’t have to be huge for a self-propelled feeder to make sense, freeing up a tractor and loader and saving time and fuel.” Opico became the Strautmann importer early in 2016, initially concentrating on the company’s long-established range of trailed feeders and forage loader wagons. “It was always the intention to import self-propelled feeders too,” said Opico Strautmann service manager David Mein. “It’s a specialist market which requires product expertise and top levels of back-up and we wanted to make sure we had everything in place to guarantee this before establishing the product on UK farms.” Strautmann has offered selfpropelled models for 20 years with most demand initially from eastern Germany where large dairy units are common. The company enjoys a 45 per cent market share and 95 per cent of sales are replacements to existing customers. Two models are offered,

with a wide range of specification options allowing bespoke configuration. Both incorporate vertical mixer bodies and milling cutters to load direct from the silage clamp.

The larger Verti-Mix SF diet feeder is available in single-auger 11, 13 and 15m³, and double-auger 14, 17 and 20m³, versions. The milling head is similar to that of the Sherpa, but has a larger diameter for higher feed rates and reaches to 5.1m. Sensors monitor loading performance and head travel speed is automatically controlled. SF models offer more feeding options than the Sherpa, including front and rear cross conveyors, rear opening doors or a combination of doors and front conveyor. Elevator continued over...

Manoeuvrable The base Sherpa version is compact and ideal for smaller yards. It is available with 12 and 14m³ single auger mixers and the 12m³ version is only 2.54m high. It has rear wheel steering providing a tight 1.43m inside turning radius, making it ideal for traditional livestock buildings. Power is from a Perkins 4-cyl engine with up to 144hp and distributed through three separate oil circuits to drive the transmission, loader and mixer drum. The central-mounted pick-up head is 2.0m wide and reaches to 4.3m. Silage is transferred to the mixer by a 0.565m rubber conveyor. Feed can be discharged at the right-hand front and left hand rear, with one discharge gate standard equipment.

The milling head has 60 angled blades, designed to extract forage from the clamp face and propel it on to the transfer elevator. An option is 54 additional straight knives for extra shredding.

Class-leading performance

One operator with a 20m³ machine can load, mix and feed 2–2.5 loads per hour, enough for 280–350 cattle. This farm visited in northern Germany uses a Strautmann 2001 SF model working an average 6hrs per day, to feed 1,600 cows.

Strautmann has developed a stepped auger, standard across its range, which improves mixing performance, reducing ration preparation time. Creating an uneven flow as material travels up the spiral generates a tumbling effect, incorporating concentrates and other nutrients faster. Claimed performance improvement includes power and fuel savings of eight per cent. The augers can be specified with replaceable stainless steel wearing faces for a longer working life. “The

travel speed up to 40kph, making it ideal for those travelling longer distances between working locations. The cab is similar to the Sherpa, but with improved control through a large 10.4in touch-screen. For each of the three operating modes; transport, milling or feeding, the screen display switches automatically providing essential information, also displaying the view from the on-board cameras. Speed selection is automatic; in transport mode the full range from 0–25, or 40kph is available through the foot control pedal while for milling the full foot pedal travel range allows precise speed regulation 0–7kph, and for feeding it is 0–15kph. Drive is hydrostatic. An electronic joystick with freely assignable buttons controls all feedrelated functions including raising and lowering the milling head by moving the stick forward and back.

Transport mode selects 2-wheel steering for safety. Forward and reverse shuttle is through a steering column mounted lever, with speed regulated by the foot pedal. Feeding is also controlled by the joystick. Two buttons at the top select the cross-conveyor and travel direction, and a button at the rear moves the conveyor out to either the left or right, if the option has been specified.

Practical and affordable Investment cost in a self-propelled feeder is considerable, but James Woolway said Opico will establish the range in the UK using a contracthire scheme. This includes contract servicing and a 4-year, 4,000hr warranty, allowing users to budget accurately for the cost. Agreements will be 36, 48 or 60 months with an option to purchase at the end of the hire period, or hand the machine back to Opico. “We believe that within five years the market for self-propelled models will have developed with strong demand for regularly serviced, used machines,” he said.

A test-drive demonstrated the ease of use. Loading from a clamp of maize silage the operator had only to position the machine a suitable distance from the clamp face, then press a safety button, and move the joystick left to start the cutter head. Pushing the stick forward fully enabled automatic feed control as the system maintained maximum loading speed by regulating Back-up guaranteed the rate of travel across the clamp Dealers will hold stocks of essential face.

Example costings included a Sherpa 1402 14m³ model with almost all available options. For a 300-cow herd with 150 followers and producing an average of 10,000-litre milk yields, an annual saving of £2,587 was possible when compared to the purchase and operating costs for a trailed 18m³ diet feeder. “The key savings are fuel use and mixing time,” explained James. “In reality there would be an extra 45 minutes of time each day available for other tasks, but additional savings include less silage waste due to the smooth clamp face which reduces quality loss compared with loader or grab loading. There is always concern that, when using a front loader, if too much material is grabbed from the heap, then will the excess be returned, or is it just added to the total ration? Many farms pay nutritionists to specify the optimum ration based on feed quality and the cows’ needs and a selfloading wagon allows users to meet the recommended feed specification through a very precise mix, to maximise milk quality and yield.”

annual £6,535 cost-saving would be typical. “This is compared to an equivalent 24m3 trailed diet feeder,” he explained, ”with a time saving of 130 minutes/day.” James stressed that greatest benefits offered by self-propelled diet feeders are for those with multiple operating sites. “The loader, mixer and feeder are all moved by one person as a single unit,” he explained. “There are situations where a tractor and trailed diet feeder is moved between sites, then the operator walks back to collect the loader, then takes that to load the feeder which wastes a lot of time. Another option, which is also labour intensive, is to use two staff; one for each machine. After feeding it all has to be moved back to the first site or moved on

The Sherpa is expected to suit more UK farms than the larger SF model.

again to feed somewhere else. With just one person required to load, mix and feed using the self-propelled machine and only one engine consuming fuel the whole operation becomes cheaper and more efficient.” Typical UK herd sizes mean James expects the smaller Sherpa to be most popular, but he said that with an estimated 1,586 dairy units having more than 250-head of cows there is a large potential market. “Every farm is different. Viability depends on herd size, time spent preparing rations and feeding each day, as well as distance travelled. Margins are under pressure, especially with the fluctuating milk price and anything that can reduce cost of production is worthy of consideration. Potential cost savings alone mean a selfpropelled diet feeder could make economic sense on farms down to 200 cows. However, there are additional benefits, including better ration control, less silage wastage and more time available for other activities and these apply whatever the size of unit.” The new Strautmann diet feeders will have their first public outing at the Highland Show in late June and importer Opico will be running a demonstration machine from July onwards. ■

The latest cab specification includes a 10.4in touch-screen and an electronic joystick with assignable buttons for ease of control.

Red Power Days inform users The Case IH Red Power Tour dealer days continued through April, including at events across east and south-east England, organised by main dealer Ernest Doe Power. David Williams reports. An event at Lavenham Airfield, Alpheton, Suffolk, close to the Essex border, was attended by farmer and contractor customers of Ernest Doe Power’s Sudbury and Framlingham, Suffolk and Fyfield, Essex and Fakenham, Norfolk depots. Area sales and service managers from each branch teamed up with Case IH sales and demonstration staff, explaining features and benefits of the latest models in the current range. A wide range of tractors was displayed from the Farmall 50 to the Quadtrac 580 and the Case IH show unit provided covered seating for presentations by Case IH representatives. Area sales manager David Redman talked about recent product updates, and harvester and large tractor specialist Paul Freeman explained principles of ballasting and the importance of achieving the correct tyre ‘footprint.’

Red Power Tour The Red Power Tour events, organised by the manufacturer, have been held across the UK to inform potential customers about the range of tractors and to help users get the best out of their own tractors, whatever the brand, providing information about tyres

and ballasting for field and transport applications. Ernest Doe Power Sudbury branch and sales manager Ed Perry commented that the event was a great success; “As well as being informative and an opportunity to discuss future customer needs it was a great social occasion and, despite many farmers being busy with field work, we enjoyed good attendance. Caterers providing locally sourced meat were kept busy, especially between presentations.”

Customer view The Duchesne family farms at Stanningfield near Bury St Edmunds and provides a contract farming and contracting service to local landowners. Approximately 400ha (1,000 acres) is farmed stubble to stubble and contract harvesting and spraying are key operations for the business, which trades as Richard and Ruth Duchesne. Sam Duchesne studied agriculture at Easton & Otley College near Ipswich, and was at the event with his father Richard and fellow student Will Tooke, who is studying at Harper Adams University but currently helping out on the farm. “I found the ballasting presentation particularly useful,”

Presentations by the Case IH team included advice on tyre pressures and ballasting, and were considered useful by visiting farmers.

said Sam. “It isn’t just about adding more weight to gain traction. Weight positioning has a big effect and mounting 1,000kg well forward of the front axle on the front linkage has the same effect as adding 1,200– 1,300kg at the front wheels. This means that balancing a rear mounted implement using linkage-mounted weights requires less ballast, allowing a lower total tractor weight. It’s all logical but a demonstration with weigh cells under the tyres showed the effect clearly.”

Optimising performance Case IH product demonstrator Ed Watson said the Red Power Tour days have been well received by customers. “Ballasting isn’t just about adding weight,” he said. “Optimising distribution for the particular model is important. For example the half-track Rowtrac needs enough weight on the front to turn on the headlands but for efficient traction weight is needed on the tracks. If too much weight is on the front, the front wheels ‘fight’ the tracks and with drawbarmounted implements in particular, there needs to be an allowance for front wheel lead. As a guide the Rowtrac needs a weight distribution of 75–80 per cent on the rear whereas conventional wheeled tractors usually perform best with 60 per cent of the weight carried by the rear wheels.”

Southern area demonstration Ernest Doe Power ran a similar day for customers south of the Thames at Farningham, near Dartford in Kent. “The attendance was good,” said Ernest Doe Power general sales manager Gerald Silvey. “We showed the full range of Case IH tractors and models working included a Puma 175CVX ploughing with a Lemken Juwel 8, 5+1 plough; an Optum 300 with a Lemken Juwel 8, 6+1 plough and a Magnum Rowtrac 380 half-track with a 7.5m Dal-Bo Rollomaximum seedbed cultivator. Many current and potential users took advantage of the opportunity to drive the latest models, and feedback from visitors suggested that it was a useful day.” Case IH representatives gave two presentations explaining differences between models and their intended applications, as well as features and benefits of each. Tyre specialists from Michelin demonstrated the importance of correct ballasting and continued over...

The second demonstration day was near Dartford in Kent.

tyre pressures, and their effect on arable land through field compaction tests.

Kent contractor impressed Local contractor Paul Murray attended the day. Trading as IR Murray Contracting and based near Wrotham, his company operates as a sub-contractor for five months of the year, applying slurry through dribble bars onto grassland and established wheat crops. For the rest of the year a general contracting service is offered to farms across the south-east carrying out grassland and arable tasks. Four Case IH tractors make up the fleet including an elderly 885XL, a Maxxum 5140, a Maxxum 140 and a Maxxum MXM140. “We have operated Case IH tractors since 1978 when we

bought an International, followed by the Case International models,” he explained. “The main reason we moved to International originally was that it was one of the first to offer power steering and synchromesh transmissions, which made quite a difference to us and we have always been happy with the brand.” Paul visited the event to see and drive the latest models. “I found the talk on ballasting and tyre pressures very informative,” he explained. “There is a lot we can do to optimise our tractors’ performance just by getting the simple things right. We try hard to minimise ground damage and have invested in wide tyres, mainly for applying slurry to growing wheat crops so being aware of additional techniques to reduce compaction is relevant. The

Soil compaction tests put the theory into practise.

Scraper tractor is a snip McCormick tractor distributor AgriArgo has come up with the ideal simple-spec machine for hardpressed dairy farmers needing a reliable power unit for routine cleanup operations. Benefitting from the manufacturer’s latest transmission, axle and hydraulics, the 74hp X4.35M is likely to cost less than £17,950 on farm in 2wd form or £19,950 for 4wd. It has a straightforward mechanical clutch and 12x12 40kph shuttle gearbox with 540rpm pto. Alternatively a 2-speed PTO with an economy 540rpm setting can be specified where the tractor is to

be used for light field work or with bedding or feed dispensers. A 30kph 16x16 creep option is also available for those who want the extra ratios and slower speeds. Radial 14.9R28 rear tyres are included for good grip and long service life, with a 12.4R36 no-cost option on the 4wd version shaving a few centimetres off the overall width. A dual-element hydraulic pump provides 20 litres/min dedicated to steering and 45 litres/min to supply the 2,700kg rear hitch and either one or two single-/double-acting spool valves. The 4.4-litre Perkins 1104D-44

The no-frills McCormick X4.35M.

engine is built to Tier 3 emissions rules, lacking the expensive exhaustgas treatment equipment that otherwise adds significant cost. It has mechanical rather than electronic fuel injection and has no turbocharger, making it about as simple an engine as there is. On the operator platform rubber matting covers footplates either side of the shallow plastic-coated

transmission tunnel. With a plasticcovered seat, lack of cladding and minimal electrics, it can therefore easily be hosed down. ■

Mechanical weed control solves resistance issues Sales of Claydon drills continue increasing as farmers prioritise reduced establishment costs to maximise profits. Year-to-date figures are double last year’s. Major investment in sales and production facilities has resulted in a larger production area and improved facilities for sales and administration teams.

The annual spring open days organised by drill manufacturer Claydon, at founder Jeff Claydon’s 360ha (900 acre) heavy-land Suffolk farm, are always popular as new and experienced users get together to share opinions and lessons learned each season. This year, a new product was announced, ahead of its public show debuts. David Williams reports. The open days are an excellent opportunity for those considering investment in a Claydon drill to meet current owners and discuss potential advantages for their situations. Jeff practises what he preaches and has used his strip-seeding direct-drills since 2002 to reduce establishment costs on his challenging land. Farm tours allow visitors to view flourishing crops, but Jeff is equally keen that any less successful establishment is seen, so lessons can be learned for future years. Sales of Claydon drills in the UK and to over 30 countries, continue to increase and the company has invested heavily in the past year to ensure production can meet demand. Previously sales and administration offices were temporary buildings within the main workshop but stateof-the-art facilities now incorporate meeting and presentation rooms along with excellent training facilities. Forty-eight people are employed, and further expansion is planned. Like other farmers in eastern England, Jeff ’s main challenges, apart from the weather, are black-grass, and other herbicide-resistant weeds, and cabbage stem flea beetle which forced him to stop growing oilseed rape; a key part of his cropping rotation until last year.

Opti-Till system The drill range’s success along with increasing issues with persistent pests has caused Jeff to expand his machinery range to include the Claydon Straw Harrow, TerraStar light cultivator and Cambridge rolls, offering a one-stop shop for those looking for a complete direct seeding solution. Described as the Claydon Opti-Till system, the combination of machinery promises significant cost savings and greater profitability, improved timeliness

for optimal drilling conditions and reduced weather risk, more even establishment and higher yields. Soil structure improvement, higher earthworm populations and increased carbon sequestration also result from the tillage technique suggests the company. “With volatile produce prices an increasing issue, production costs need reducing as far as possible to compete with overseas growers,” explained Jeff. “It doesn’t help that, since 2009, we have lost approximately 240 active agrochemical ingredients. In the same period we have gained just four new actives and our armoury is getting tired. The standard rotation of two wheats then oilseed rape highlighted the issue that something had to change. “The Opti-Till technique combines a suitable rotation with an appropriate amount of tillage and achieves weed control without excessive chemical stacking,” said Jeff. Claydon’s drill design includes a patented unique leading tine to create a slot, followed by a winged A-share. The leading tine lifts and aerates soil and, operating at an optimal 8–12kph, it creates effective shattering without raising clods to the surface. Precise depth control is a feature and Jeff said 8–10cm is sufficient for cereals whereas for oilseed rape the channel depth needs to be approximately 15cm, providing a suitable environment for root penetration and growth. Behind the leading tine, the A-share moves trash to one side and rear ‘ski boards’ leave the straw between the bands of cultivated soil. A levelling board covers the crop at the rear. “We end up with the larger clods on top, and finer soil underneath which preserves moisture and the seed germinates in a warm, humid environment, essential

for growth,” he added. Where soil isn’t moved between the bands, later weathering can introduce a suitable growing environment for grass weeds which are quick to take advantage of a lacklustre crop, suggests Jeff, so rapid early crop growth is essential. Unmoved soil between the tilled bands maintains a free-draining structure and is capable of supporting machinery better than conventional tilled ground. This allows sprayers and spreaders to travel easily, while the corrugated surface allows rain penetration, reducing run-off.

Quantified benefits Jeff quotes establishment costs for the Claydon Opti-Till system using a 4m Claydon drill and 7.5m straw harrow at approximately £71/ha, compared to £131/ha for a conventional full cultivation regime on a 300ha (750 acre) farm. This provides an annual saving of £17,800 or £53,400 over three years, he said. Time savings too are significant with ploughbased seeding techniques requiring 110mins/ha; minimum tillage 42 mins/ha and the Claydon drilling system takes just 26 mins/ha. “The user isn’t as dependent on suitable weather windows either, when using the Claydon drill,” said Jeff. He acknowledges that efficient farming isn’t all about saving money and that good results are essential. Saaten Union trials monitoring 17 varieties averaged over 10 years have demonstrated that yields from the

Claydon drill achieved 9.42t/ha against the equivalent trial areas established through a full ploughed seeding regime which achieved 8.64t/ha; almost a tonne less. “The crop gets a better start with the Claydon drill, the straw acts as mulch in the spring helping maintain warmer temperatures,” he said. “We also compared results in very dry years and again the Claydon system achieved significantly higher yields.” After 15 years using the Claydon drill, Jeff said he has learned that stubble management is critical, mainly to reduce slug numbers. “We must manage slugs to reasonable levels and make sure pellets work effectively,” he said. “Going straight into stubble with a min-till cultivator creates the perfect environment for slugs. But using a straw harrow is effective. It’s a high speed operation, consumes little fuel and using a straw harrow has reduced our reliance on metaldehyde,” he said. “Applying 5kg/ha of metaldehyde costs £19/ha including application, and for ferric phosphate the cost is higher; £21/ha. The 7.5m straw harrow costs £7.95/ ha, so three passes are £23.85/ha and volunteer numbers are also reduced as are other weeds and residues. The TerraStar light cultivator produces a deeper tilth and its plucking action creates dips on the surface improving water penetration, but leaves the surface dry for impoved traction for future field operations.

Cropping and weed control “Where we have high black-grass pressure we have opted for spring oats, but used the autumn period to harrow stubbles every 7–10 days. Last year we took out the last lot at the end of October. Harrowing reduces Roundup use and we waited continued over...

A crop of spring oats thrives on Jeff ’s farm. A big advantage of the Claydon Opti-Till system is reduced headland damage, due to fewer field operations, explained Jeff who is pictured (inset) examining the young crop. Up to 30 per cent of the field is headland, he points out, and compaction damage, worse through a conventional tillage regime, can pull average field yields down.

Testimonial:

“After meeting Nick at LAMMA 2015, the TMK Tree Shear looked exactly what I was looking for as a replacement excavator mounted tree shear. The design was constructed to meet the needs of our operations. Nick quickly organised a demonstration at our base and we ordered one immediately. The shear has been used for a wide variety of small and large scale jobs and reduces man power. The whole process from purchase to after sale care has been fantastic and we would not hesitate to recommend Nick and his range of products to anyone. Thanks Nick, the shear makes a great addition to our range of excavator attachments.”

until the end of November to spray, achieving a clean stubble overwinter ready for the spring crop. Previously we made up to four Roundup applications in the autumn, then one in spring but using the harrow reduced this to one application in the autumn, then one pass with the harrow in early March, before drilling straight in. This has left land much cleaner,” he explained. “Where weeds started to germinate before drilling we used a straw harrow pass to to damage the cotyledons which proved successful. Where we moved the top 3cm during several passes this almost completely removed the weed issue,” he added.

Inter-Row Hoe launch Claydon’s brand new Inter-Row Hoe will be available this autumn, having been in development for two seasons. “Any new products we add have to be fully proven on-farm,” said commercial director Spencer Claydon. “An advantage to

band seeding is that an inter-row hoe can tackle weed populations in growing crops and while inter-row hoeing has been used for many years in precision-drilled crops such as sugar beet, it isn’t possible for cereals in 125mm rows. But band sowing at 300mm leaves 14–15cm unseeded strips between plants which can be mechanically hoed, allowing elimination of weeds from that area easily and reliably and in an environmentally sensitive way.” “We have remained on top of weed issues by increasing our springcropped area and using our Opti-Till system including the Claydon Straw Harrow, TerraStar light cultivator and Claydon Hybrid drill,” said Jeff. “During the past few years the new Claydon Inter-Row Hoe has kept areas between the rows clear of weeds later into the growing season and selectively reduced the weed burden in areas where it’s an issue. Because our soil is in such good condition through use of our Opti-Till system for 15 years, machinery is well

A crop of wheat on Jeff ’s farm served as one of this season’s test areas. On the left is a control area where black-grass can be seen between seeded strips and, on the right, an area of the same field, hoed a few weeks before. Most weeds had been killed and many of those remaining were loose on the surface and likely to die as their roots dried.

supported, even early in the season, so a tractor with a front linkagemounted hoe can operate as the first flush of weeds appears. Seed only grows once, and as soon as it is killed it is dealt with.” The new hoe is front-linkage mounted and operates up to 6kph at 20mm depth. It is manually steered and the 6m trial version achieved work rates up to 40ha/day. Final trials this spring will result in development of a range of sizes to match the drill line-up later this year. ■ Spencer Claydon is pictured with a handful of dead black-grass, removed from a wheat crop by the hoe three weeks earlier.

Devon and Derbyshire dealer developments

The Master BC 340 evaporative cooler.

Master offers high-performance evaporative cooling equipment. While its portable BC 180 and BC 340 are recommended for livestock housing, they may also appeal to other users in the farming sector, it says. A cheaper and healthier alternative to traditional airconditioning solutions, they can be used both outdoors and in, even with the open doors and windows that are

often found in farming. During summer in particular animals can suffer from overheating. This can dramatically affect milk and meat production levels, says Master. But its coolers help to keep a comfortable temperature level and thereby maintain productivity. Using the fully natural process of evaporation to lower the ambient temperature, the coolers are harmless to animals’ health. What’s more the constant fresh air movement eliminates the risks from recirculation of exhausts, smokes and micro-organisms, Master claims. Master coolers are easy to move and install and are said to have very low running costs. Their operating range is from 330 –400m2 and the airflow generated is up to 20,000m3 per hour. They are equipped with automatic water supply and their large water tank ensures long operating hours. Their robust construction helps them resist damage in often harsh agricultural environments, adds Master. ■

The perfect all-rounder Giles Maddaver’s M128GX-II.

Finding a tractor that’s compact and manoeuvrable enough to work around livestock buildings, yet powerful and capable enough to operate demanding implements in the field is a challenge faced by many mixed farms. For Cornish farmer Giles Maddever, however, that challenge is being met in full by his Kubota M128GX-II. His farm between Looe and Polperro is run alongside his father Geoffrey’s at nearby Pelynt. Both have been in the family since the 1930s. There are 200 hectares (500 acres) between the two farms, which underwent organic conversion in 2000, with the main enterprises

being beef, sheep and cereals. “Crops are grown as part of the organic rotation, and include oats for Jordans. With the land split 50:50 between arable and pasture, some hilly terrain and the West Country’s famously high rainfall, it’s a demanding situation for any tractor. The 126hp M128GX-II is used for daily feeding and mucking out around the yard, but also pulls a 5-furrow Vogel & Noot plough plus a 3m Lemken Terradisc when establishing crops. “There aren’t many tractors that are equally adept at both yard and fieldwork,” says Giles. “I can

feed up in the morning and then put the plough on and go to work with confidence and in comfort.” He and his father also agree that the Kubota has the best cab they’ve ever experienced on a tractor. “When you’re feeding, you often need someone with you to open the gates, for example. With the spacious cab and dedicated passenger seat, there’s plenty of room for two to ride in comfort,” says Giles. The large glass area of the 4-pillar cab also comes in for praise. With no pillar on the side window, there’s an unrestricted view, he notes. A third hydraulic service has been added for the plough and for a powered post driver and Giles reports that hydraulic implements work very well. However, it’s the simplicity of the controls that are a major contributor to the tractor’s convenience in the field. He says: “It’s much better thought-out than our previous tractors, and there’s no need to reset the hydraulics after stopping, or to fiddle with countless buttons. “I find that it handles the implements better too. There’s no shortage of grip or power.”

The 24x24 transmission, with three ranges and eight Intellishifts in each, has also found favour. “I wondered whether it might be a bit too simple at first, but the eight shifts in each gear mean you can do most jobs in one gear without changing it. “The electronic shuttle is also very smooth, which is essential for a loader tractor,” says Giles. The real benefit, he adds, is gained by using Kubota’s owndesigned and -built LA2254 loader. Giles says: “It’s very evident that it’s purpose-designed for the M128GX-II. They fit together extremely well and the tractor is very stable with the loader on. “The loader itself is really strong. Kubota’s heritage in construction equipment certainly shows.” In winter the loader stays on the tractor most of the time, but in summer Giles says it’s a two minute job to drop it off when heading out to the field. The loader control is neatly integrated into the console, and is very easy to use while driving the tractor, he says. With some heavy implements continued over...

to lift, the strength and 6,100kg lift capacity of the M128GX-II were big selling points. It has 520/70R38 tyres which Giles describes as a nice all-round tyre, not too wide for ploughing. Kubota’s distinctive bi-speed turn facility, which increases the speed of the inside front wheel when on a turn, has also come in handy for quicker headland turns during fieldwork. The deal was sealed by the fiveyear warranty and competitive price offered by local dealer Vincent Tractors. “We already had a relationship with Vincents and it’s nice to work with a traditional family

dealership. It provides an excellent service,” says Giles. He aims to keep the tractor for the 3,000hr term of the warranty but has another tractor lined up for replacement before that, and a Kubota is certainly in the frame. “It really is the perfect all-rounder, combining simplicity with capability, and comfortable enough to work in all day,” he states. ■

Cereals 2017 FACTS When:

Moving with the times Grimme says it’s aiming to showcase at Cereals the CleanLoader, its recently-launched field loader, and also its new multi-use and multi-crop trans-loading Crop Cart. Based on the company’s RH24-60 self-emptying receiving hopper, the CleanLoader has been designed to reduce trash content while in the field. It’s fully road-legal and features four large wheels on a tandem axle. Thanks to an onboard 46kW 4-cylinder diesel engine, it doesn’t need any external power source. And it can be unfolded and ready to work in 15 minutes. It has an output of 120tph depending on soil type, crop and working conditions, which means it can load a 30t potato bulker trailer in

The CleanLoader.

15 minutes. Originally manufactured by Spudnik, Grimme’s sister company in the US, the 12m-long Crop Cart has a 20t holding capacity. With a 6.5t per minute unloading capacity, it’s still able to handle crop gently and minimise soil compaction. Depending on the attachment, it can be used to transport and transload most crops, including potatoes, sugar beet, carrots and grain. The boom is designed for highcapacity unloading and is able to raise, lower and extend to adapt to every situation and need. The driver has a good view onto the unloading elevator which is fitted to the front of the trailer. Stand 376.

Lemken is showing the CompactSolitair 9 trailed drill at Cereals. Up to 70kg of pressure can be applied to each OptiDisc or OptiDisc

M double-disc coulter unit with depth-guide roller, improving seed placement. The choice of discs or power

harrow cultivation section ensures the Compact-Solitair can be tailored to suit individual needs. With offset 1,064mm-diameter wheels, the tyre packer roller supports the full working width of the machine, helping to ensure excellent reconsolidation of the soil while also significantly reducing the machine’s draft requirement, says Lemken. An optional trapeze packer roller, located directly behind the tyre packer, firms the soil directly in line

with the seed rows. The standardised 3-point linkage connecting the coulter bar to the machine ensures it can be switched to a precision drill quickly and easily. The seed hopper can double as a fertiliser tank. Lemken Solitronic in-cab controls provide an integrated headland management system, reducing operator input at the headland, while Isobuscompatibility allows the drill to be operated via an Isobus-enabled tractor.

Flexible sprayers, competitively priced The redesigned Leader4.

With sterling’s drop in value, Team Sprayers’ British-made machines offer a highly-competitive alterative to imported sprayers, it says. The company’s Danny Hubbard points out that, while the devaluation has added cost to some imported components, this represents only a relatively small part of the overall manufacturing costs. The firm’s new Leader4, the latest in a series of trailed sprayers, has major design improvements and superb ride, ideal for farm contractors and largerscale farms, he adds. The Leader4 has a profiled tank and a low-folding boom design that combine for a low centre of gravity to maximise machine stability. The new model is available with 3,000, 4,000

and 5,000-litre tank, and boom options from 21 to 32m, the wider formats being tri-fold. There’s a new heavy-duty pto pump and air compressor combination for boom contents recirculation and immediate application-readiness. Ride is improved by axle airsuspension with load-sensing valve and a new steering axle fitted as standard. A Müller-Elektronik Basic-Terminal in the tractor cab displays all functions for effortless operation. Leader4 joins Team’s stable of trailed and mounted sprayers, the latter supplemented by front-mounted tanks where required. Danny says: “Because we manufacture in the UK we can offer a flexible range, competitive in all sizes. This includes tailoring to specific applications. “Moreover, we’re pleased that our simple compact Alpha mounted sprayer has proven a popular alternative to the small ‘budget’ machines imported from Eastern Europe.” Stand 32.

Interest in alternative energy GlenFarrow is returning to both Cereals and the Royal Highland Show this year, after last year’s successful events. It will again be exhibiting its biomass boiler range and associated products, including its grain and log dryers. The company’s sales engineer David Taylor says: “We’ve been attending Cereals for six years and we’ve always found the audience to be very knowledgeable about the benefits of biomass for heating and drying. “With the inclusion of straw as a fuel source, the interest in our equipment has grown. “Last year we attended the Royal Highland Show for the first time. The interest from Scottish farmers, growers and foresters was phenomenal. That’s why we’ll be back in June.” When buying a biomass boiler, Renewable Heat Incentive (RHI) payments have always been a key consideration. However, other factors are now growing in importance, David says. Rising fossil fuel prices and the benefits to the environment

of using renewable and waste energy sources such as straw and waste wood are increasingly influential. Farmers still benefit from RHI payments, which are guaranteed for 20 years. “However, they’re now thinking more about the cost savings that can be made by replacing expensive fossil fuels with renewable energy sources,” says David. That’s the reason GlenFarrow has installed more than 80 batchfed biomass boilers so far this year, he adds. “We’re looking forward to seeing visitors to both shows and demonstrating the benefits of GlenFarrow batch-fed biomass boilers, both financial and otherwise,” he says.

Grain ﬁrm consolidates its position In the same position as in previous years, BDC Systems’ stand is presenting examples of the grainhandling, drying and storage equipment company’s extensive product range, including the new BDC trench intake hoppers. As the UK’s only official supplier of Skandia elevators and conveyors, this equipment will also feature prominently. The intake hoppers are fabricated from 2mm pre-galvanised sheet and are supplied flat-packed for easy on-site erection. Hoppers can be supplied for both above- and below-ground installations, and can be up to 20m long, supplied

in 0.5 and 1.0m increments. The hoppers are designed to suit all Skandia intake conveyors from 30–150tph. Heavy-duty drive-over grids are available, as are roll on/off covers for outside installations. All Skandia intake conveyors have self-regulating intake sections that control the rate through the machine without the need for adjustable slides. The machines have been designed to take whatever material passes through the intake section. Further regulation is controlled by chain speed via an inverter if required. The three ranges of Skandia equipment – L line for agricultural

plants, I line for large farms and commercial sites and H line for heavy use – will be on display, along with equipment from many of Europe’s most well-known and respected manufacturers that form part of the BDC portfolio. The company is also pleased to announce that it’s had another successful year throughout the UK with Svegma grain dryers and Skandia handling equipment. It has supplied a broad range of sizes and capacities from 2m 13tph to 6m 66tph, with one site having two 6m 52tph dryers running as one large unit or two smaller ones. In total, more than 430tph of

Skip liming at your cost Low pH will compromise yield and quality, so now’s the time to plan your liming, says British Sugar. Ignoring soil pH and available calcium can prove to be a very costly mistake even in the short- to medium-term, it stresses. Data from the British Survey of Fertiliser Practice for crop year (see table 1) shows that levels of liming in both grassland and arable rotations continue to be low. The 5-year averages show just 3.4 per cent liming in grassland and 8.5 per cent liming on arable land. That’s equivalent to liming on a 12-year cycle for arable and a 30-year cycle for grassland, British Sugar points out. Data collected from Professional Agricultural Analysis Group (PAAG) surveys of 530,000 soil samples taken between 2014 and 2016 showed 55 per cent of grassland and 19 per cent of arable land tested at or below pH

Table 2: five year averages show just 3.4 per cent liming in grassland and 5.8 per cent liming in arable rotations

% soil samples by pH by rotation

6.0 (see table 2). These levels will impact “significantly” on the utilisation of costly N, P and K and other nutrients, says British Sugar, which adds that routine soil pH testing is needed to make sure consequential loss of yield and quality is avoided by allowing pH to be maintained at an appropriate level for the rotation. LimeX offers very fast-acting but lasting pH correction in arable and grassland rotations, and can be used in organic farming systems. What’s more, the integral nutrient package within LimeX contributes to maintaining soil fertility and increases available calcium. A maintenance application of LimeX70 at 5t/ha will supply a minimum of 50kg P2O5, 35kg MgO and 30kg SO3, typically worth at least £50/ha. LimeX is available to order now for summer and autumn.

Varieties to suit the market KWS is showcasing its range of highyielding varieties and explaining how they satisfy a number of endmarket uses and farm situations. Alongside established winter and spring wheats, winter and spring barleys, conventional oilseed rapes and spring oats will be several candidate varieties expected to join the Recommended List later this year. Also on show will be the breeder’s hybrid rye and sugar beet varieties, including Daphna, the highest-yielding variety on the 2017 RL that’s also beet cyst nematode resistant. Commercial manager Julie Goult (left) says: “For many it’ll be the first opportunity to see KWS Zyatt, the highestyielding Group 1 bread-maker that has delivered impressive grain quality, shown outstanding all-round disease resistance and demonstrated excellent performance in the second cereal position. “Next will be KWS Kerrin, the highest-yielding feed wheat on the RL. It’s a variety that tillers aggressively and suits a wide drilling window which will increase its appeal to those who like to drill slightly later to help with blackgrass control.” Candidate varieties KWS Jackal and KWS Luther, both high-yielding soft feed wheats will also be on show, as will two new winter barleys. “Funky is a 6-row feed which, at 107 per cent of controls, is almost on par with the hybrids, but features slightly stronger all-round disease resistance.

impressive candidates Butterfly and Django – both conventional types that have performed strongly across all UK regions. Julie says: “As with Flamingo, these feature solid light leaf spot and stem canker resistance, are of moderate height and are stiffstemmed. Interest has been strong.” A range of new spring cereals will also feature on the KWS stand, including KWS Sassy, a spring malting barley showing great promise with malt distillers. It’s under evaluation for this purpose with initial reports suggesting it has a strong future in this sector.

“Next to it will be KWS Orwell, the highest-yielding 2-row variety across all UK regions. The stiffeststrawed 2-row variety available with early maturity and solid resistance to net blotch, it’s set to be a firm favourite with growers across the UK for many years,” says Julie. Another new offering will be Montana, a winter wheat with “exceptional” grain quality that’s undergoing commercial-scale testing with ADM Milling.

New model for battle against black-grass The energy-efficient Surface cultivator.

Cereals sees the launch of a new Surface Pro cultivator from Cousins of Emneth. It has a condensed frame but retains the proven tine design which, in conjunction with razor rings, prompts weed seed germination for effective weed control with total herbicide ahead of drilling. The tines work at a consistent depth of 50mm with a precise level of control. This shallower working depth makes for very energy-efficient cultivations, encouraging grassweed seed in the top layer of soil to germinate, leaving seeds at lower levels undisturbed, says Cousins. The company’s design partner, crop protection specialist Hutchinsons has completed a 5-year plan on its test farm and has results to prove Cousins’ surface cultivator’s pivotal role in an effective anti-black-grass strategy. Field trials confirm that the Surface cultivator can provide “ideal” seedbed conditions for a range of cultivator

drills in use and will potentially offer wide working widths at a power requirement of about 50hp/m and forward speeds of up to 9kph, ideally suited for controlled-traffic situations. Cousins will also display its latest rolls, including the heavy-duty HZ models, presses, packers and cultivators. According to Cousins, when it comes to farm machinery, customers want well-built kit that will improve their soil management and crop yields. This is especially true of cultivation machinery such as rolls, presses and cultivators, it says. The family-run agricultural engineering business claims to be founded on reliable, field-tested designs and good old-fashioned service.

Tree scheme proves fruitful A Nottinghamshire grower is finding out how productive his farm can be thanks to apple trees, and will be sharing his experience at Cereals. With help from the Woodland Trust’s Trees for Your Farm scheme, David Rose of Home Farm, Screveton, has diversified into alley cropping, creating a silvoarable system integrating rows of trees within his 200 hectare (500 acres) arable area. The trees take up just eight per cent of his land, while the remainder is cropped under the pre-existing cereal rotation. Agroforestry schemes such as this are more productive than monocropping, says the Woodland Trust. Once the fruit is in full production, the combined yield and economic output of the apples and cereals will be greater than that of the original cereal crop, despite there being less of it in the ground.

75-101 ROP - Cereals Jun.indd 87

As well as the boost to the farm’s income, the trees are providing protection and nourishment to the soil, attracting pollinators and encouraging wildlife. David will be sharing his experience of agroforestry at a technical seminar on 14th June, alongside Woodland Trust director of woodland creation John Tucker. The seminar will also discuss the opportunities presented by leaving the EU. Visitors to the Trust’s stand will be able to have a go on a bicyclepowered press, enjoy a glass of UK-produced apple juice and discuss how trees can work for them, whether they want to plant to reduce soil erosion, provide shelter for livestock, create a source of fuel or provide an extra crop. There’ll also be the chance to win a tree pack worth £60. Stand 754.

Novel way to view disease and weeds A novel way of looking at disease and weeds in plots will be one of the highlights of the Bayer stand. Instead of just parting the crop to see disease levels, the firm is digging a trench through the treated and untreated wheat plots so visitors can look more closely at disease levels on the various leaf layers, says Bayer campaign manager for cereal fungicides, Will Charlton. “The treated plots will have had our new SDHI fungicide Ascra Xpro (bixafen + fluopyram + prothioconazole) applied at T2, so this demonstration will allow growers a new way of looking at the performance on key leaf layers.” In addition, Cereals 2017 will mark the last chance for growers who have used Ascra to enter a prize draw for the chance to win a Polaris Ranger buggy worth over £10,000. “There’s a code printed on every Ascra can which, if growers bring it to our stand at Cereals, we can enter into the prize draw,” Mr Charlton says. In the ever-popular blackgrass area, visitors will be able to talk through all aspects of control programmes from cultural

management, such as spring cropping and delayed drilling to new chemical options, including Hamlet (iodosulfuron + mesosulfuron + diflufenican), Monolith (mesosulfuron + propoxycarbazone) and a new pre-emergence blackgrass herbicide. “This year we are bringing our weed-screen to Cereals, which will allow growers to see herbicide performance from new and current options across a range of grass weeds, including different resistant strains of black-grass,” says campaign manager for cereal herbicides, Ben Coombs. The Bayer plots will also demonstrate its OSR InVigor portfolio, including the new varieties InV1010 and InV1035, and agronomy tips to make sure the crop gets off to the best start and is protected through the season from pests and diseases. Consistency of performance is something that a lot of growers are looking for in their oilseed rape variety, notes OSR seeds and traits campaign manager, Sarah Middleton. “Oil content is one characteristic

which is consistent from yearto-year, and with the better financial back-drop to the crop currently, it also helps growers increase their returns. One of our demonstrations will highlight the difference between varieties and the impact it can have on the bottom line.” In the seed treatment area, there will be a range of seed- and soil-borne diseases on display, such as loose smut, bunt, leaf stripe and covered smut. The seed treatment team will be on hand to talk growers through how to identify these diseases, as well as treatment options such The ‘black-grass area’ on Bayer’s stand. as Redigo Pro (prothioconazole + tebuconazole) and for insect pests heavily over-subscribed.

Offering a distinct advantage A high-tech trailed sprayer from Berthoud is making its Cereals debut, alongside a new generation of mid-range mounted machines. Winner of the prestigious Sprayer of the Year award at SIMA, Paris, the Vantage trailed sprayer has all the fundamentals of the brand, such as: Actiflex II axle suspension; Dualmatic operation and its motorised Dualelec version; and the Berthoud boom range. It also provides access to Isobus technology with either the Berthoud VT Tronic touchscreen or Isotronic directly on the virtual

screen of the tractor. Berthoud crops head of products François-Xavier Janin says: “The Vantage is a sprayer for farmers who want to combine application precision, high working speed and comfort.” The machine inherits the strong personality of the Tenor range of trailed sprayers that it replaces. With a low centre of gravity and dynamic tank design, it keeps the compact proportions that mean good handling and stability both on the road and in the field, all

assets that have made earlier ranges a success, such as the Omega pump, the Actiflex II axle suspension and simplicity of operation with the Berlogic panel. All the hoods have been designed in reaction injection moulding high-impact plastic for optimal protection of the sprayer components. The combination of the dark colour and the elongated tank line give the new sprayer a sporty, technical look, says François-Xavier. The Vantage range comprises five models of 2,800, 3,500, 4,500, 5,500 and 6,700 litres that can be fitted with five boom types ranging from 24–44m. These are the Axiale II, Kondor, Ektar B2, Ektar B3 and Axiale 36/38. Meanwhile Hermes, Berthoud’s new mid-range mounted sprayer, features a stylishly modern and compact design that reduces overhang by up to 30cm compared to its predecessor. Its close-coupling optimised weight and centre of gravity improve weight distribution on the tractor and therefore balance. This means it can be used on smaller tractors. The Hermes is available with 800, 1,000 or 1,200 litre tanks and a new range of ALSR rear-folding booms of 15, 16 or 18m. Suspension on the Axiale central-pivot system gives this new boom with three steel arms excellent stability and good performance on slopes, turns and headlands, says François-Xavier. Robust and compact thanks to its L-shaped structure, it complies with the regulatory transport width of 2.55m. EcoMatic operation completes Berthoud’s new package. The main innovation lies in the assembly of function valves fitted directly to the body of the Gama spray pump and its distinctive control mechanism. ■ Stand 46.

Key developments in combination drills and compact disc harrows Amazone is using Cereals as a major launch pad for a wide range of new kit. When it comes to drill combinations, the recent trend has been very much in favour of pneumatic metering systems. Larger hopper capacities and the introduction of electrically-driven metering systems with push-button calibration and automatic GPSbased headland shut-off systems have been main driving factors. However, the simplicity of a conventional seed drill with its lack of fan and improved rearward visibility still holds some appeal, says Amazone. Its new 3m working width Cataya conventional drill combination goes a long way to bridging the gap between the two systems with its new 1,270-litre seed hopper which has a centre of gravity that keeps tractor lift capacity requirement to a minimum. Filling is quick and easy with a wide hopper opening and a lid profile that’s designed to prevent spills. The new peg wheel metering

system is easy to change between fine seeds and cereals with the quick push of a slide. The seed shaft is driven electrically to give infinite variation of the seed rate from the tractor seat and push-button calibration. It can be specified to drive singly or in two halves and therefore offers either full-width automatic GPS-based headland shut-off or half-side 1.5m sections on the headland depending on the degree of accuracy desired. The seed set-up, calibration and seed-emptying functions are all controlled from a centralised operator station found to the lefthand side of the drill. The electric metering system can be operated through the Isobus terminal in the cab or via the optional TwinTerminal 3.0 on the drill. The TwinTerminal means that all the set-up can be done at ground level, avoiding the need to go back and forth to the cab during calibration. The flick over to calibration and the positioning of the trays is all handy from the one side. The Isobus machine ECU comes

as standard with TaskController TC-BAS, TC-GEO and TC-SC for full documentation transfer and section control, as well as supporting all AUX-N functions for tractor joystick operation. The drill can be controlled by one of the Amazone Isobus terminals or via a third-party controller. The Cataya is mounted onto the redesigned series 1 power harrows and rotary cultivators that feature new easy-adjust side plates, parallelogram-guided tine depth control and a roller-mounted levelling board. A new range of wheel-track eradicator tines is also now available. New TwinTeC double-disc coulter technology is being brought from the Cataya to the trailed Cirrus 60032. Instead of the 340mm-diameter coulter, however, the Cirrus receives the uprated 380mm TwinTeC+. The system is ideal for working in dry, cloddy conditions on heavy land, says Amazone. The main difference is that the heavier-duty TwinTeC+ can be set from 15–100kg of downforce depending on application. At 80mm, a third, wider-diameter depth control

roller is offered in addition. The scrapers, coulter harrows and seed-guidance system are carried over from the Cataya. Depth control is simply set on the crank handles and the oil flow going to the fan drive is used to maintain the coulter pressure and provide live, on-the-move contour-following ability in undulating ground. The TwinTeC+ comes with a standard row spacing of 16.6cm only. Meanwhile, the existing range of Catros compact disc harrows has been extended at either end by six new models of mounted and trailed continued over...

models. The introduction of the smaller 2.5, 3.0 and 4.0m rigid Catros Special helps provide this type of specialist cultivation tool at a price affordable to the smaller-scale grower. The machines give them the benefits of: uniform contour-following for shallow, even depth control; highquality oil-immersed lifelong disc bearings with slide seals; and the optimum rear consolidation roller for maximum weed and volunteer seed:soil contact. The Catros Special is available in a 460mm smooth disc option for shallow stubble-chitting work or as the Catros+ Special with a 510mm serrated disc for areas of heavier organic matter levels such as for

grassland renovation or after cover crops or maize stubbles. Completing the range at the upper end is the all-new Catros+ 7003/8003/9003-2TX trailed harrows in 7, 8 and 9m working width respectively. These fill the gap between the Catros 6002-2 and the “monster” 12m Catros+ 12003-2TS. Once in the field the machine folds out easily. The rear consolidation roller, of which there are nine options, provides the depth control. Working depth of the discs is controlled hydraulically from the tractor seat, and an optional crushboard can be fitted ahead of or behind the cultivation element depending on application. Also working in the Sprays and Sprayers ring will be the new Tier IV Pantera self-propelled sprayer, the UX 4200 Super trailed sprayer with Ama-Select electric individual nozzle control and the UG 1801 mounted sprayer with AmaSwitch electric individual nozzle shut-off, all of which were launched at Lamma in January. ■ Stand 2.

Spraying efﬁciency in focus Bailey Trailers’ 15,000-litre water bowser.

Bailey Trailers is showing its new products at Cereals. The popularity of its 15,000-litre water bowser, comprising an ex-milk tank mounted on one of its chassis, has led to the standardisation of a new standard specification model with high-throughput pump, intermediate bulk container (IBC)

front platform and quick-coupling hoses. Trials have shown a potential for almost doubling sprayer outputs from the support of a bowser, by minimising downtime. The new water bowser has a 15,000-litre purpose-designed translucent tank mounted on a standard Bailey 16t chassis with sprung drawbar and commercial axles with 4-leaf, 100mm-wide suspension and 385/65 R22.5 tyres. The 1,000-litre per min pump is mounted in the lit rear locker.

Entire range on display Martin Lishman offers a wide range of innovative and cost-effective tools to help earn optimum income from crops, and they’re all on display on its stand at Cereals. In previous years the company has had two stands, one in the post-harvest and the other in the Sprays and Sprayers section. But this year the decision was made to combine the two in the postharvest area, giving visitors the

chance to view the entire range without the need for two stops. Sales director Ian ClaytonBailey says: “All our products are linked in some say. We feel that combining the two stands will help paint a picture for our customers of how our products can be used, and how they can benefit from them.” Products from the Martin Lishman range are practical

It has 3in outlets, connecting to two 3m-long hose with Snaplock couplings, kept in side storage racks. Air brakes are offered as an optional extra. The bowser is also said to be ideal for large-scale livestock operations and is available without the pump and pipes if not required. Continuing the company’s policy of building safety into its trailer designs, Bailey now offers full-length hydraulic side clamps for its flat bale trailers, maximising load stability on sloping ground and ensuring safety on busy fast roads. ■ Stand 2009.

Chemistry overcomes previous limitations Growers are able to learn how to make the most of Dow AgroSciences’ two new groundbreaking cereal herbicides at the Cereals event. Zypar was registered for use in time for spring 2017 applications, following Pixxaro EC’s debut in 2016. Both are based on the company’s Arylex active molecule that’s said to give robust control of broad-leaved weeds in all weathers. Dow’s customer agronomist Stuart Jackson says: “Many growers will have become used to the limitations of traditional chemistry

The company’s new managing director for the UK and Ireland, John Humphreys, will be on the stand over both days to outline the next new products coming out of the development pipeline and into the UK over the next three years. These include a sap-suckinginsecticide and a fungicide, also described as groundbreaking. For BASIS- and NRoSO-qualified professionals, points are on offer for visiting Dow’s stand as part of the event’s Knowledge Trail. Dow’s now-legendary wood-fired

Tanker builds on brand reputation With its considerable experience in the slurry tanker market, and with almost 3,500 units sold, Joskin is reinforcing its product offering with the new Volumetra, which has already gained the title of Machine of the Year 2017 from the Sima show. It’s said to be a manoeuvrable and efficient tanker with a lowered centre of gravity. A self- supporting structure made of high-tensile steel has allowed a weight reduction, while hydro-tandem/tridem running gear is bolted and movable, allowing its position to be adjusted to guarantee weight distribution between the tank and the rear implement. A strong integrated linkage is designed to be fitted with the whole range of spreading and injection alternatives, even the widest

implements. Being integrated to the tank, it keeps the Volumetra’s dimensions compact and allows weight to be kept onto the eyelet even with a wide spreading boom, says Joskin. This new concept has allowed the company to reduce the height of the tank, without having to lengthen it, helping the brand retain its reputation for manoeuvrability, comfort and security. A simple and multi-functional vacuum pump is used for filling and emptying the tank by creating a negative or positive atmospheric pressure differential respectively within it. Maintenance of this type of pump is minimal, the company says, with no slurry able to enter the pump housing. ■ Stand 541.

The latest TopDown from Vaderstad.

Cereals 2017 sees Vaderstad’s newgeneration TopDown cultivator available in working widths of 3–9m. Extensive updates include a new double SteelRunner packer option, a reinforced frame, new hydraulics and stronger tine arms. The new TopDown has 12.5cm disc spacing, 27cm tine spacing and an adjustable hydraulic stone release up to 700kg and can cultivate to a depth of 30cm. With deep-loosening points, this increases to 40cm. It remains a one-pass shallow or deep cultivation tool with effective levelling and reconsolidation, says Vaderstad. The front of the machine can be

Updated hydraulics with enlarged accumulators ensure more intensive loosening, distributing and mixing, regardless of the field conditions. The levelling discs also have an updated design including better working angles, while the new adjustable packer double SteelRunner creates a very effective full-depth reconsolidation and clod-breaking function. Its open design results in minimised bulldozing and a low draught requirement, the company says. Stand 600.

The area sown to Clearfield varieties more than doubled last season and considerable further expansion is foreseen over the coming seasons as growers reap the benefits of the greater weed control flexibility and reduced erucic acid contamination risk the system provides, as much as its ability to control problem cruciferous weeds.

Dekalb technical specialist Will VaughanFrance.

Will says: “DK Impressario CL stands out from the competition for providing the Clearfield trait in a well-rounded agronomic package comparable to mainstream Dekalb varieties, so growers can also be assured of the least production risk and the greatest flexibility in its management.” Seed of all four new varieties is likely to be available in limited quantities for planting this autumn, ahead of their main commercial introduction in 2018. ■ Stand 637.

Best to be on the safe side Building on its experience at Cereals 2016, which it hails as a great success, Billie Box is showcasing one of its popular secure chemical stores at this year’s event. With about half those attending the show being farm owners and managers, exhibiting there gives the company a valuable opportunity to meet them and to gain a better understanding of how it can serve this vital sector, it says. One of the biggest issues facing today’s farmers is the need to store chemicals safely. Not only are they increasingly under pressure from government departments, but they’re also being challenged to change the way they store and handle chemicals by the companies they supply. For example, the Tesco Nature’s Choice scheme imposes very specific guidelines, the company points out. Billie Box’s chemical stores are converted shipping containers and match the specification dictated by the Health and Safety Executive. They’re a cost-effective, long-term

solution to the increasing problem of safe and secure chemical storage, it points out. In addition to its chemical stores, it also offers new containers for those who are interested in diversifying their business by offering self-storage facilities. The company says it’s very much looking forward to meeting with existing customers and making new contacts. Meetings at the event can be pre-arranged by contacting the company in advance. ■ Stand 416.

Flexible approach to bale handling Attachment specialist Albutt is introducing a new bale squeezer for telehandlers, loaders and wheeled loaders. The F450 can handle a wide range of bales, wrapped silage or straw, square or round. Its heavyduty design is said to offer long-term reliability. Two gripper arms, which feature 75mm heavy-duty thick wall tube for high strength, are moved horizontally, by two hydraulic rams. Their smooth surface protects bale wrap during handling. Opening from 0.75 to 2.05m, they grip both rectangular and round bales securely. Rectangular bales can be gripped from the side or end depending on bale length. An optional bolt-on back frame allows more than one bale to be carried at a time. The handler lift capacity is 1,000kg. It comes complete with adjustable pressure-relief valves, allowing adjustment of clamp pressure, and hydraulic lock valve that locks pressure in the ram to provide hose-burst protection. Albutt can supply this new attachment with brackets for all types of telehandlers, tractor loaders and wheeled loaders. Stand 2045.

New drill and spreader technology The 3m Xeos Pro Evo at work.

Sulky Burel is launching several seed drill products at Cereals, releasing updates to its Cultiline power harrow and presenting a new fertiliser spreader configuration platform. A new Duo hopper is available

on Sulky’s range of Xeos HD, Pro and TF pneumatic seed drills, allowing precision placement of slug pellets or additional seed alongside the main seed. Seed rates of 0.5–15.0kg/ha are

is fitted with a Cultiline XR disc cultivation tool, it can achieve working speeds of 12—14kph in optimum conditions. In heavier conditions, or after ploughing, the Cultiline HR rotary harrow with four rotors per metre provides good seedbed preparation for the drill. Sulky has responded to customer requests and updated its Xeos TF front hopper to increase capacity and ensure better stability regardless of the drilling toolbar used. The hopper is equipped with a new frame, offering greater load capacity and better accessibility for loading and adjustments. The maximum front ballast load is 1,500kg, without counting the load in the hopper, which can be more than 900kg. Hopper capacities of 1,000, 1,500 and 1,800 litres are available and can be combined with a variety of drilling toolbars offering widths from 3–6m. Furthermore, improvements to the Xeos TF injection system via a special fertiliser performance kit have resulted in a 40 per cent increase in pneumatic transport capacity, says Sulky. Updates to cultivation equipment include RapidFit, a new quick-release tine system for the company’s range of power harrows. A dual-function spanner allows tine removal in a few seconds. The tine holder has been designed to protect the lock from wear, offering fast tine replacement without compromising lock function or durability. Sulky has also invested in its fertiliser spreader configuration software, and is launching My Fertitest at Cereals. This new online platform allows farmers to build a personalised database by saving settings and adjustments from spreading activities. My Fertitest simplifies spreader set-up by reducing the need to reenter data. Machines are recorded in real configurations, and changes in the field can be annotated and saved, providing full traceability and ease of re-use. Adjustments to Fertitest recommendations required due to fertiliser formulation changes or hygrometry can also be personalised and saved. These personalised changes and settings can be shared via My Fertitest with the Sulky Test Centre to allow improvements to recommendations across the platform. ■ Stand 560.

Success breeding success Following the launch of the TMC Cancela toppers range at last year’s Cereals event, Spaldings has seen one of the most successful years for topper sales in its history. The initial launch saw the introduction of six machines from the 1.8 to a 3.6m folding version, but the company has now added a further three machines. These are a 4.0 and a 4.5m folding rotary topper and a 2.5m offset mulching machine. Alongside these machines, Spaldings is also showcasing the equally successful Flatlift subsoiler which has been the market leader in its field for many years. The Flatlift now has various versions to suit every farm application from standard subsoiling to a one-pass operation. A TMC Cancela topper.

Experts at your disposal Warden Agri is looking forward to a return visit to Cereals as an exhibitor after its successful attendance last year. Specialising in damaged, distressed and compromised grains, the company deals with out-of-spec materials that aren’t easily marketable. It uses the internet address webuyanygrains.com in addition to an eponymous one. Managing director Neil Warden says: “Farmers are increasingly looking to optimise all areas that may previously have been overlooked. “With the best will in the world, no farming system is perfect. There will be times when grain becomes damaged, either by pests, storage conditions or unforeseen events. “It’s in these instances that Warden Agri can help farmers and grain store operators by operating a discreet and rapid solution.” The company operates at both ends of the supply chain and is paving the way with new, low-cost and

A ﬂying start for crops With low cereal prices and reducing subsidies squeezing margins ever tighter, the search for cheaper crop establishment techniques gathers pace. Direct drilling and reduced tillage are therefore currently hot topics, but growers wanting to follow this path can find it difficult to implement and sustain thanks to an unpredictable climate and a lack of information and guidance, says SimTech Aitchison. As a company it claims to have a great deal of experience in this particular field, with its T-Sem drills having been at the forefront of direct drilling in the UK for more than a decade. The firm’s Simon Clarke says: “The T-Sem drill’s distinctive inverted T-Slot coulter creates the perfect environment for seed to germinate and develop. At only 10mm wide at its leading edge it’s designed to cause as little surface disturbance as possible. “Preceded by a vertical cutting disc that creates a path through surface trash, the T-Slot coulter ensures that the seed is always placed on a firm base. “The powerful vibrating doublecoil tine creates the tilth to cover it, as well as mineralising

some nutrients in soil around the seed. “The seed slot isn’t compacted by the drill, as we believe that this process is best managed separately. “This makes the drill much more versatile and able to work in wetter conditions without the risk of capping the soil over the seed,” says Simon. With a 14-strong 3–8m range of models, each with fertiliser options, there’s a drill for every size of farming enterprise, according to SimTech. “The T-Sem is the economic and versatile solution to starting with direct drilling. It copes with high levels of surface trash, it will penetrate very hard soil and it will work at the other end of the spectrum when things become a little sticky. “Add to this its low power requirement and ability to work in all non-direct drilling situations, and you have the whole package,” Simon adds. ■ Stand 2036.

Rules of moling hold ﬁrm The high-clear beam version of Miles Drainage’s mole plough.

Miles Drainage is exhibiting its trailed single-leg mole plough, offered both in standard and high-clear beam versions, the latter available with a pitch adjuster. These machines are recommended for use with tracklayers of at least 150hp or wheeled tractors of 200hp or more. Mole draining is a relatively cheap and simple operation, essential for the effective draining of clay soils. With the very dry start to the year, it’s difficult to gauge what moling conditions will be like post-harvest, says Miles Drainage. It’s therefore more important than ever to pay attention to the fundamental principles, it adds. The existing drainage scheme should have stone backfill to at least 100mm above the depth of moling, with the headland drain far enough from the boundary or margin, at least

14m. The soil moisture content should be such that the surface is dry enough for effective tractor traction and the subsoil is firm at moling depth, but plastic enough to compress into a channel. Above moling depth, the dryer the soil the greater the fissuring produced and, therefore, the more effective the water removal. Following mole draining, the field should be rolled, cultivated or ploughed to prevent any sudden rainfall from causing siltation or the mole roof to collapse. Based in East Anglia but operating nationwide, Miles Drainage provides a GPS-based quality land-drainage design and installation service to agricultural, equestrian and sports field customers. The company manufactures the single-leg mole plough, as well as supplying spares and wearing parts. ■ Stand 359.

Positive feedback for coulter Having launched its range of direct drill coulters in 2015, JJ Metcalfe & Son is now receiving a great response from growers. Designed to fit Seed Hawk drills, or innovatively convert Horsch CO series and Simba Free Flow drills into direct drills, the JJ Metcalfe & Son coulters have a narrow, replaceable tungsten carbide-tipped blade that cuts through the soil, retaining organic matter on the surface and posing minimal threat to the worm population. Ensuring accurate seed placement, the blade cuts a slot to place the seed directly beneath the residues from the previous crop, while leaving virtually no surface disturbance. The company’s Abi Metcalfe says: “Minimal disruption is key to direct drilling. Roots and a healthy worm population will take care of aerating and draining the soil, and nutrients will come from the use of cover crops and crop rotation. “This no-till approach also helps prevent black-grass establishment by leaving dormant seeds buried well below the surface, unable to germinate.” Growers are sharing their experiences of the coulters on social media, posting images of drilled fields and emerging crops, as well as videos of their drills in action. “The social media response is great for us, as we can see what’s happening out in the fields and can use the information to develop the coulters further,” says Abi.

“We’ve also had a lot of interest in the Kverneland iPlough with its controlled furrow adjustment and distinctive transport function.

Momentum builds for orders Graham Heath Construction will again have special offers on its stand.

After a “tremendously” successful year in 2016 Cheshire-based Graham Heath Construction, one of the fastest-growing and competitive steel-framed building companies in the UK, has confirmed it will once again be attending the Cereals event. With spring and early summer being the key times for farmers wanting buildings in place for harvest and orders said to be coming in thick and fast, the team at Graham Heath is encouraging farmers to start to think about placing their orders so that their building can be ready in time. The event also gives the team the opportunity to explain in more detail the extent of the Graham Heath Construction offering, from building options, fixtures, fittings

and concrete panels to equestrian facilities. The team will be offering advice on the best agricultural building solutions and demonstrating a broad range of products, including the recently-launched EcoBuildings, whereby the company is working in partnership with a specialist commercial energy consultant to manufacture steelframed eco-buildings for the agricultural sector. Estimating manager Alec Fowler says: “We’re starting the busiest time of year as far as orders are concerned. Cereals is a fantastic opportunity not only to be able to chat through options with potential customers, but also to meet those who have already placed orders with us or those who are wanting to put the finishing touches to an order. “As ever, we have some great show offers at the ready, and we’ve already taken several appointment bookings for the event.” Stand 310.

Dryer control offers consistent output Sukup Europe is displaying its latest dryer control system at Cereals.

Straightforward menus guide the user through all dryer functions with easy input with a pop-up keypad for entering drying temperatures and discharge moisture set points. Simultaneous monitoring and reaction technology (SMART) uses incoming and outgoing moisture sensors with advanced algorithm programming to increase dryer efficiency, reducing large swings in temperature and discharge moisture. The PLC-based system is built to withstand harsh environments and can be sited adjacent to the dryer or in a plant control room. Optional remote monitoring of the dryer is available via smart phone, tablet or PC. Working in conjunction with the automatic moisture sensors, patented Quad Metering discharge system

and the clean-burning modulating gas burners, the QuadraTouch Pro control system ensures a continuously accurate temperature and more consistent final moisture content during the drying process. It takes the ease of dryer operation and grain drying efficiency to a whole new level, says Sukup Europe.

Soil loosener with low-disturbance option The He-Va Combi-Lift towing a drill.

Cereals sees the launch of a new He-Va Combi-Lift pre-cultivator that allows soil loosening at the same time as drilling or cultivating. Designed to subsoil up to 350mm deep, alleviating compaction and improving drainage, the CombiLift fits directly on the tractor linkage incorporating a heavyduty rear linkage that can pull another implement behind. Distributor Opico’s James

Woolway says: “This versatile machine is perfect for a range of tasks, and can be lifted out of work when not needed, while still operating the drill or cultivator. “This means specific ground areas can be targeted, such as wheelings, poorly-drained areas of the field or pockets of compaction.” The Combi-Lift can be fitted with standard subsoiling legs and points or low-disturbance legs. In

its standard format, it’s said to be ideal for working in combination with shallow cultivators or cultivator drills, where compaction needs alleviating or soil needs restructuring. The low-disturbance version consists of a narrower leg and smaller, specially-designed, tungsten-tipped points. It can be used down to a depth of 250mm to address soil pans and compaction to encourage depth

of rooting and improve drainage. James says: “The low-disturbance version is ideal where black-grass is a problem, as it can perform a medium-depth cultivation with very little disturbance of the soil surface.” The hydraulic two-point linkage on the rear of the machine allows the working depth of the tines to be adjusted easily from the tractor seat without affecting the drawbar height of the trailing machine. All models can be supplied with either automatic hydraulic reset leg protection or Hammer-Thru multisegmented shear-bolt, which reduces the need to carry shear-bolts. The hydraulic reset allows the legs to trip back when they hit an obstacle and then reset automatically on the move. The Combi-Lift is available in 3, 4 and 6m versions, starting at £7,683+VAT. The 4m version fitted with lowdisturbance legs and points will be on display on the Opico He-Va stand, in front of the 4m Sky EasyDrill. The 4m Combi-Lift retails at £14,500. Stand 3052.

Mapping passes the acid test A satellite-mapping system for correcting soil pH is helping to improve agricultural efficiencies across East Anglia. Needham Market, Suffolk-based Needham Chalks developed the GPS liming service in conjunction with Morley Farms near Wymondham, a commercial farming enterprise that also hosts field trials and research as part of its role within the Morley Agricultural Foundation. The system uses pH samples taken at half-hectare intervals and maps electronically to create a digital application map that can be transferred to the lime spreaders. As a result, lime is spread only to the areas where it’s needed. Morley Farms farm manager David Jones says: “It’s fair to say we were a bit of a guinea pig for this. “We used to do this with manual maps based on someone’s assessment of where they were in the field. Now it’s all recorded and more accurate, which gives me much more

confidence that it’s being done in a repeatable way. “If this information is being passed between people or organisations, it’s a much more robust way of doing it. In this day and age, it’s not good enough to draw things by hand.” A neutral pH balance is fundamental to healthy crops, as acidic or alkaline soils can restrict the nutrients available for crops, says David. Needham Chalks farm accounts manager Annelise Ford (left) says: “The equipment knows exactly how big the field is, where you are in it, and where the boundaries are. “It tells you where to take the samples every half a hectare but, if I’m walking around and I see an obviously acidic area, I can override it to sample that area. “It’s moving with the times. Many more farmers are going into precision farming and they want to know that everything is going exactly where it should be.” ■ Stand 211.

Tillso Advantage Cereals

Supporting no-till success

The Advantage subsoiler.

British cultivation specialist Tillso holds the philosophy that having the ability to effectively remove compaction with minimal disturbance is a pre-requisite for a successful no-till approach. This is not least because UK soils tend to be damper and have a higher clay content than those in other countries where no-till has been used for many years. The company’s Advantage makes an invaluable tool to provide drainage in cultivating systems using 50mm tillage, and the low surface disturbance means it can be used as a one-pass tool in front of a no-till drill, it says. Restructuring can still be carried out in optimum conditions, prior to delayed drilling if required. Advantage subsoilers are now available in sizes from 3m rigid to 6m trailed. With features such as improved inter-tine clearance, ring rollers built to match tine spacings and hydraulic depth control, the Advantage provides the ultimate platform to maximise the effect of the Sabre Ultralite tine, says Tillso. Ultralites lead the way in the

latest generation of subsoiling tines, it adds. Designed to remove compacted layers in soil by lifting, cracking and creating vertical fissures and columns, the Ultralite restructures fully across the width of the Advantage. This allows water and nutrients to infiltrate and promotes an even soil density for healthy root development. Unlike more aggressive tines that leave soil vulnerable to being compacted back to its original state or worse, the Ultralites create vertical columns that still support traffic. The low surface disturbance of the Ultralite tine preserves organic matter and keeps weed seeds and fine particles at the surface. Where traditional tines mix soil layers and seeds, and exposed organic matter to decomposition, the Ultralite promotes long-term soil fertility, says Tillso. The focus is nevertheless very much on effective restructuring to create the necessary drainage rather than merely smearing a slot in the soil, the company stresses. Stand 2007.

Importer has got straw covered Following the successful launch of the ProStraw Systems Stack Sheet at Cereals 2016, Paddy and Will Reed of Suffolk-based PJ Reed will be showcasing the Parkland 3- and 5-Bale Accumulators as well as the ProStraw Stack Sheet again at this year’s event. As the sole UK importer of the Parkland Bale Accumulator, PJ Reed has operated one for the past four seasons and revolutionised its contracting business. Designed with controlled traffic farming in mind, the Accumulator delivers three or five bales to the

headland resulting in less compaction across fields, and reduced machinery and labour costs, while only having to handle bales once from field to stack. Mike Evison, who has recently purchased a new 3-Bale Accumulator, says that he runs two Accumulators for his contract baling customers which provides an additional service, and sets him apart from other contractors. “It allows my customers to collect bales without travelling all over the fields,” he points out. The ProStraw Systems Stack Sheet, which can be mechanically

fitted from the ground, is NFU and Health & Safety approved, says PJ Reed. It can cover stacks that are 5 bales wide and 10 bales in length, while additional sheets can be used for longer stacks. The performance of the sheets this winter has been outstanding ensuring straw is in the same

condition as when it was baled, increasing the amount of saleable product, says the company. New for 2017 is a more compact system for easier transportation and storage, with prices from £1,495. ■ Stand 788.

Managing for better rooting By their nature, plant roots are costly and difficult to research and monitor and are, therefore, little understood. That’s the observation of Law Fertilisers’ Mark Law, who adds that soil is so complex that many of its features are also rarely understood. What is clear, he says, is that good soils produce good roots and then good shoots and finally good crops.

“By inference roots are more important than shoots,” he says. “Fifty-four per cent of yield variation in cereals has been shown to relate to rooting density between 40cm and a metre. And recent studies in East Anglia have shown a reduction of 400 per cent in deep rooting since 1978, leading to significant effects on water and nutrient uptake.” Recent changes in farm practice,

such as the increase in minimum cultivation, the use of heavier machinery, reduced attention given to drainage and acidity, reduced use of basal fertilisation and an increase in the use of systemic pesticides are all contributing to the trend, says Mark. Law Fertilisers recommends the use of fertilisers applied in the base as fundamental to vigorous root growth for greater water and

nutrient capture. The trends toward the use of lower-cost powdered wastes where the phosphate is water-insoluble and toward topdressing phosphate and potash for convenience are both contrary to the promotion of good rooting, because of the slow mobility and uptake of these nutrients, especially in a spring such as this year’s, Mark points out.

British-built sprayer success on home turf Two large farming estates in Suffolk have opted to buy the biggestavailable British-built trailed sprayer from Landquip. Both Helmingham Estate near Ipswich and Exning Estate in the far west of the county have chosen the 6,000-litre InTrac equipped with 42m tri-fold aluminium booms. Helmingham farm manager Glenn Buckingham took delivery of his machine last year in time to carry out his autumn campaign of herbicide applications. Having used a 36m trailed Landquip sprayer for the previous 14 years, he was no stranger to the

brand’s build. Equipped as standard with a hydraulically-driven 700 litres per min centrifugal pump, the filling turnaround is kept to a minimum – about 10 minutes. When the pre-programmed volume is reached, filling is automatically stopped and switched to circulation. The fill station is fitted with a 30- or 50-litre low-level induction hopper, overhead lighting for night filling and close-to-hand twin lockable cabinets, hand wash and fill read-outs. Compact, narrow 2.5m transportwidth booms from 30–44m working widths are offered on the 5,200- and

6,000-litre InTrac. The new 7,000- and 8,000-litre models, which will be available in 2018, can be equipped with booms from 36–48m. As standard all models have heavy-duty, high-load-carrying, 2m-wide twin-ram steering axles with commercial S-cam hydraulic or air-actuated braking. Export models are available with 2.25, 2.50 or 3.00m-wide axles. Wheel options include 380, 420, 480 R46 large-diameter row-crop and 600 or 650 R38 flotation wheels. Drawbar options use a pick-up hook or Euro high-hitch fitted with a Scharmüller spoon for attaching to

the tractor's 80mm ball. Using the high-hitch option makes the most of the sprayer’s generous 750mm clearance when spraying and desiccating tall crops. ■ Stand 30.

and heavy cultivators. Ferobide has many other applications in farming, including extending the life of packer-roller scrapers, straw-rake tines and drill coulters. It’s also been successfully used to extend wearing part life on sugar beet and potato harvesters. The outlay is often repaid five or even ten times over, says Tenmat. Stand 3010.

The InTrac is proving popular in its county of manufacture.

Still life in the old parts yet Ferobide is a weldable tungsten carbide hard surface tile, ideal for extending the working life of wearing parts, says manufacturer Tenmat. Its advantage over other carbides is that it can be welded in place in a farm workshop using existing mig or stick welding equipment. In practice, conventional tungsten is a good product, but end users complain that the host metal wears

away and the parts have to be changed when the valuable tungsten is still 85 per cent good, the company says. To counter this problem, Ferobide can be welded on the area that’s eroding away, so that the host metal is protected and full use is made of the very expensive tungsten. This method works on many plough points, subsoiler points, wings

One-pass drill gains precision option Specialist in conservation-farming equipment, Mzuri is launching a precision-seeder option for its ProTil range of strip-till drills at Cereals. It further extends the drill’s versatility in carrying out strip-till, direct drilling and, now, precisionseeding operations with one drill. The new precision-metering feature offers accurate seeding depth and spacing from a singlepass system, resulting in “huge” cost savings, the company says. Pro-Til’s advanced precisionseeding option eliminates the need for prior cultivations and allows crops to be precision planted directly into previous crop residue or grassland, conserving moisture and the soil’s natural structure. Retention of moisture, fertiliser placement and soil reconsolidation at seeding-time have been proven to play an essential role in successful establishment of precision crops, says Mzuri. Its Pro-Til places the seed into a moist, friable and nutrient-rich environment and reconsolidates for maximum seed:soil contact. Independently-operating leading discs cut through the surface residue, while a breaker leg prepares a strip of clean, friable soil and band-places fertiliser to

provide a nutrient boost for the developing roots. Each band is reconsolidated by a following press wheel to remove clods and air pockets. The seed is precision-placed behind Mzuri’s latest-design low-disturbance coulter, which is followed be a second reconsolidation wheel for “perfect” seed:soil contact. Each seeding unit has its own height and depth control. Hydraulic-operated seeding legs exert constant down-pressure that can be adjusted individually. The system uses adjustablepressure vacuum-metering to accurately space crops, regardless of seed size. Each unit contains a metering disc and a singulator to prevent skips or doubles and is driven by an electric motor that maintains the same spacing at variable speeds. A bulk-fill system continuously replenishes the mini hoppers on each metering unit directly from the dual 3,400-litre tank, split 60:40 seed:fertiliser, for non-stop drilling. The precision-seeding kit should be available for the 2018 season as on option on new Pro-Til drills or for retrofitting to older models. Stand 3054.

Mulch ado about mowing Mowing on the Isle of Arran.

Like many who farm in marginal areas, the Henderson family is under constant pressure to keep its land clear. “Rushes are our biggest challenge,” says David who, with his father Neil, runs a flock of 500 sheep alongside a medium-sized beef enterprise on the Isle of Arran in Scotland. “We were in the market for a flail mower. But our dealer, Hamilton Brothers, suggested we try a Major Cyclone mower.” After seeing it demonstrated on their farm, David and Neil asked for it to be left with them. It’s now used across the farm for

everyday grass topping, but where it really shines is in clearing rushes and gorse, they say. The Major Cyclone mower has four rotors, each with a tri-cut blade system that mulches the rushes and disperses the cut material evenly behind the tractor. The Henderson’s 100hp tractor is under no pressure, even when mowing in heavier conditions. “A flail mower in an equivalent working width would need far more power than we’re putting into the Cyclone, so there’s a fuel saving there as well,” says David. “The Cyclone’s a very reliable and cost-effective mower,” says David. “If we’d bought a flail mower and seen this afterwards, we’d have been annoyed.” The Cyclone mower will be on the Major stand at the Royal Highland Show.

Royal Highland Show

Yet more spec choice in popular hp bracket The new Active version of the Landini 6/7 series Roboshift tractor range will make its Scottish debut at the Royal Highland Show. Distributor AgriArgo UK is introducing the Active models as an alternative to the full-spec Dynamic versions, with a package of equipment that will appeal to those preferring a simpler specification. Controls are laid out on a side console instead of a seat-mounted armrest, mechanical spool valves are installed in place of electric valves, and there are generally fewer electronic features. While this creates a tractor without many of the “gizmos” of its higher-specification machines, operators shouldn’t feel shortchanged, the company says. The tractors still have the same high-performance FPT Industrial engines and a semi-powershift transmission with smooth, buttonoperated shifting, while PTO and hydraulic systems are well up to

the job of operating modern farm equipment, it adds. The changes make them more affordable for those happy to do without top-spec features but wanting a thoroughly modern power unit with a quiet and spacious cab. The Landini 7-160 Roboshift Active destined for the Royal Highland Show has a rated speed output of 152hp, rising to 160hp as the 6.7-litre engine is pulled down under load. Power and torque are channelled through the 24x24, or optional 40x40 creep transmission, which has thumb-button shifting among the four powershift steps and between the six ranges. There’s a choice of 40kph, 40kph Eco of 50kph gearing, each with a 4-speed PTO package that includes eco settings for 540and 1,000rpm at the shaft. If hydraulics performance isn’t a priority, the standard 123 litre per min load-sensing pump can be exchanged for an 88 litre per min

gear pump. Conversely, the 6,300kg standard lift capacity can be upgraded to the 9,300kg performance of the higherspec Dynamic models. The Active specification is available on 6-cylinder 7 series Roboshift tractors from 160–212hp, which all feature a cast chassis for maximum strength with mounted implements, and on 4-cylinder 6 series Roboshift tractors from 143–175hp.

AgriArgo UK’s Ray Spinks says: “With the 6L and 6 and 7 series tractors, the Landini range provides a great choice of specifications in this popular horsepower bracket to meet different needs, preferences and budgets. “Go for the 6L if something capable but basic suits your needs. Choose the 6/7 series Dynamic for top specification. Or opt for the new 6/7 series Active for something in between.” ■

Special support for variable-rate drilling Pöttinger is now offering variable seed rate capability across its entire range of seed drills plus specialist technical support from a precision-farming expert. As precision farming continues to play a key part in driving the profitability of many of the UK’s farming operations, the company has seen a sharp increase in demand for variable-rate-compatible seed drills. And as a leading supplier of seed-drill technology for more than 15 years, it’s continuously looking to develop an even closer understanding of its customers’ current and future needs.

Pöttinger UK general manager Shaun Groom says: “For many customers their first experience of variable-rate seeding needs some close technical support. “Bringing together the variablerate seeding maps, guidance system, seed drill controller and the drill itself can be quite burdensome for someone new to this way of working.” As a result, Pöttinger UK has put in place an exclusive arrangement with Ian Beecher-Jones (right) to support seed drill customers in these tasks. Ian is a renowned

precision-farming expert, known to many in the industry through his involvement with the AHDB's Be PRECISE precision-farming project. “He has a wealth of knowledge when it comes to precision-farming technology and has supported professional farmers across the world for many years,” says Shaun. Any new variable-rate-compatible Pöttinger seed drill is now available with a year’s free subscription to Ian’s services. He will be offering telephone and internet-based remote assistance to qualifying customers for the period, ensuring a smooth hassle-free

transfer of variable-rate seeding maps to the controller and seed drill ahead of the season, and removing any concerns operators may have when starting out with this technology. ■

Northern focus on drilling Recognising that Scottish and northern English farm machinery requirements are quite different to those of the rest of the UK, Lemken has exhibited at the Royal Highland Show for many years. It says the Show provides an excellent showcase for its latest products and technology for these markets. Lemken UK area sales manager for Scotland and the Borders Kevin

Rennie says: “There’s a strong emphasis on ploughing and drilling with power harrow/drill combinations. “Spring cereals in Scotland account for a high proportion of the country’s total cereal area, with an incredibly tight window of opportunity in some years. When attempting to combat this, growers like the flexible and less weatherreliant system a mounted power

Lemken and its dealer network have developed the Solitair 8 and 9 pneumatic drills to plant seed and apply fertiliser in one pass. This is achieved with a split tank on the rear of the machine on rigid 3 and 4m models. On the larger fully-

Tailor-made options on show At the Royal Highland Show, Hi-Spec Engineering is displaying representative models from its MixMax diet feeder, vertical auger feeder, Kompactor trailer and vacuum tanker ranges. The company offers one of the most extensive range of vacuum tankers on the market, available with a wide range of loading and other options to ensure flexibility. With livestock farmers looking to make maximum use of valuable slurry, Hi-Spec tankers are also available with a wide range of applicators, including dribble and trailing shoe, in widths up

economical, with a long-lasting and simple design that ensures low running costs and maintenance requirements. The Hi-Spec Feed-Flo mixing system features angled rotor arms that provide thorough end-to-end mixing and a light fluffy ration without the need for multiple augers. Capacities range from 10–24m3, while options include a washer and chopper for incorporating root crops into the ration. The K36 Kompactor on display is one of four models of push-out trailer available, alongside a demount version that provides increased value and

to 24m. Vertical auger feeders are available in single- and twin-auger variants in sizes from 7–32m3. The range uses a low-pitch mixing and chopping auger that creates a simple cycle action and is fitted with eight self-sharpening knives. A specific feature is its ability to quickly and efficiently incorporate complete bales into the mix, thanks to the knife arrangement. This also allows the machine to be used with lowerhorsepower tractors. MixMax paddle-type feeders are designed to be flexible, sturdy and

versatility via the ability to swap the trailer body with a Hi-Spec vacuum tanker body. The Kompactor features a headboard powered by a 3-stage hydraulic ram that can be used to compact material such as grass or maize silage, increasing the load carried by up to 80 per cent. The headboard can also completely empty the trailer in as little as 30 seconds. Since this avoids the need to tip the trailer body, the Kompactor is ideal for use in areas where conventional tipping trailers cannot access. ■

The X6 VT-Drive.

06R50B

As part of Harry West’s ongoing plan to introduce new and additional machinery to its range, it’s launching the West 2T tipping trailer for 2017 and adding a muck spreader to its range. The company developed the small and compact trailer to suit the ever-growing number of specialist horticultural operations, smallholders and small-scale farms. Built to the exacting standards of all West products, it is considered an “excellent” utility trailer for a wide cross-section of customers. The versatile unit has three drop-side doors, giving a standard

box trailer the flexibility of being converted to a flat-bed. Mesh side extensions give additional volume and even greater versatility. Road lights and screw jack are supplied as standard on the single-axle trailer. The West Maelstrom 14 reardischarge muck spreader is another eagerly-anticipated addition to the company’s already-comprehensive muck-spreading machinery portfolio. Given all its new features and the redesigned body shape, interest in it from the marketplace has been excellent, the company reports. The spreader is being exhibited at most major shows this year, with an event schedule that began at Lamma, and demonstration dates are already being arranged.

A new mid-range tractor with all the speed-control advantages of a stepless transmission will be launched in Scotland at the Royal Highland Show. The McCormick X6.440 VT-Drive being shown is the most powerful of three models in the new line-up featuring the first continuouslyvariable transmission engineered by McCormick manufacturer Argo Tractors. Within the transmission housing, a distinctive configuration of components provides a choice of operating modes, set up through a touchscreen display. McCormick distributor AgriArgo UK’s Ray Spinks says: “The new transmission provides efficient power delivery and seamless speed control, with driver-selected control strategies to optimise the engine and drive system for different applications. “The new X6 VT-Drive makes an excellent loader tractor as well as a first-rate field tractor, especially for jobs and applications that benefit from the fine speed control of CVT.” The three models match the current McCormick X6 series equipped with semi-powershift transmissions, with power

outputs for draft work of 114, 121 and 130hp. Electronic engine management then automatically increases the power available for PTO and transport operations, to 121, 133 and 140hp respectively. A combination of hydrostatic and hydro-mechanical drives feature in the CVT, which has road and field settings to optimise performance. The road setting comes with a top speed of either 40 or 50kph, while the field setting, which engages a reduction gear, has a maximum speed of about 30kph. In both cases, drive is purely hydrostatic at first, before clutch packs seamlessly engage to introduce a proportion of mechanical drive that increases as the tractor goes faster. A hill-hold feature prevents the tractor moving on a slope with the engine idling. As part of an advanced specification, the McCormick X6 VT-Drive tractors have a choice of mechanical or electronic spool valves, or a combination of the two, along with front axle and cab suspension, load-sensing hydraulics and a seat-mounted console with McCormick Data Screen Manager colour touch display. ■

and domestic bygones on behalf of the Barker family in Westhorpe, near Stowmarket in Suffolk on 17th June. The Barker Collection comprises of over 500 lots of collector’s items and is expected to draw a number of visitors. The collection was started by the late Eric Barker who moved to Westhorpe in 1957. The collection began in earnest in the 1950s when Mr

Barker began attending a series of farm sales and auctions. It was started with a Bentall horse-drawn plough and a 1939 John Deere BR6 which was used by Eric’s father on the farm where he grew up in nearby Great Ashfield. The collection grew throughout the 1970s and 1980s and, at one point, it included 60 vintage tractors; over 40 lawnmowers; binders; horse equipment; wagons; carts and other implements. Key lots of interest in the June sale include a Howard Platypus 30, 4-cylinder crawler tractor fitted with Perkins P4 engine, and a Massey Ferguson 735 combine harvester.

Power on the Land

Irrigation back in the spotlight following dry spring Unusually dry weather during the spring means irrigation has once again moved up the agenda as a key factor for maintaining crop yields in many areas. Mike Williams writes.

A Briggs boom irrigator on a four-wheeled chassis.

In some areas, this year’s April rainfall was almost 90 per cent below the same month last year, and there are already widespread reports of crop damage due to the dry conditions. The early start to irrigation has raised concerns about water availability if further dry weather occurs later in the growing season, increasing the emphasis on using water supplies efficiently. The most efficient application method is using a boom system, according to Briggs Irrigation. The distribution pattern from a wellmanaged boom is more uniform than using rainguns, particularly in windy conditions. The weather this year has not only been dry but also very windy and this has really shown up poor irrigation techniques, says Briggs director, Adrian Colwill. This year there has also been an increase in the amount of water used on crops such as cereals, sugar beet and maize in areas where these crops are rarely irrigated, and this has been encouraged because the forecast for cereal yields across Northern Europe is poor and growers feel this may mean that irrigation will pay off. Briggs irrigation equipment includes a five-model range of pump units powered by JCB Ecomax engines equipped with a protection system developed by Briggs. The pumps are from the Caprari range, and the colour finish options include a dull military style khaki paint that makes the machine less conspicuous when standing in a field.

Smart thinking Efficient irrigation also depends on having access to operating data, and the SmartRain App from Bauer equipment offers a comprehensive range of monitoring and control functions for equipment including the application and pump units. Using SmartRain allows remote access to operating data such as the elapsed

time and the amount of water applied, it allows remote adjustment of the flow rate and there is also a telephone warning system if there are major operating problems affecting the pump unit engine or an interrupted water flow. The Bauer equipment range includes six models in the DP pump unit series with a choice of Iveco or John Deere engines. Engine outputs start at 48hp for the entry-level DP70 model, and the flagship models have up to 166hp available. Security is a major concern with high value pump units that may be working unattended in remote locations on the farm. There are obvious precautions such as choosing, where possible, a location screened from roads, but manufacturers such as Bauer also include security features including a fuel tank filler cap with a secure lock and all models have a drawbar that is easily removed to make theft more difficult.

Rental scheme

Reports of high levels of irrigation equipment activity so far this year also come from Grimme UK. The Grimme irrigation equipment range includes Monsun series hose reels with 125mm diameter hose up to 750mm long, plus the smaller Primus hose reels. Grimme also offers pump units with 126hp Iveco engines, Caprari pumps and a 1,750-litre fuel tank. As well as selling the equipment, Grimme has also introduced a rental scheme that is available only for irrigation equipment. The aim is to allow farmers and growers to obtain the latest equipment for an annual hire charge instead of buying it outright, and the idea was introduced last year on a small-scale trial basis to measure the level of interest. The results were positive, explained Grimme’s Adam Johnson, and the scheme was introduced commercially at the beginning of this year, with a stock of irrigation equipment allocated specifically for hire customers. The scheme has proved to be a major success with demand under-estimated in such a busy season, and all the available hire equipment was rented out by the middle of May.

Demand is up The recent dry weather has brought a big increase in the demand for equipment and spares from Norfolk based Ellis Irrigation. Ellis operates a planning and installation service for irrigation, and it is also one of the biggest UK suppliers of parts and equipment including Briggs irrigators and Roto Rainers, plus Bauer equipment. It carries large parts stocks for Irrifrance and is the UK importer of Idrofoglia Rainmaker irrigators, previously sold under the Touraine badge. Ellis also provides a fabrication service making a wide range of specialist irrigation equipment including its own hydrants. The family owned Ellis business always experiences a seasonal surge of enquiries from farmers who need to update or extend their irrigation equipment at the start of the season, but it started earlier than usual this spring.

A Primus series hosereel from the Grimme irrigation range.

Cooling system Two of the models in the pump unit range made by Lincolnshire based Javelin Irrigation Systems are powered by JCB Dieselmax engines with a special Warmth Exchange

cooling system. This removes engine heat in the water flow created by the irrigation pump, and the benefits include a constant cooling temperature and it also reduces fuel consumption by avoiding the need for a conventional cooling system with a fan that typically absorbs about eight per cent of the engine’s power output. Javelin offers pump units with 84 and 125hp JCB engines, and there is also a 100hp Iveco powered pump with conventional cooling, and pump units are also built to suit individual requirements. Javelin agricultural irrigation equipment also includes a comprehensive range of Irrifrance hose reel units with single and doubleaxle models ranging from 75mm diameter and 300m in length, to the top model with 125mm diameter and 600m length. The polyethylene pipe on all new hose units has a two-year warranty, and the equipment includes an electronic controller plus a solar panel and a dry cell battery.

Noisy for neighbours Noise produced by an irrigation pump unit can be unpopular with near neighbours, and this is why Greencrop Irrigation makes sound insulation a major feature of its Iveco powered pumps. Greencrop identified noise as a potential problem when it designed the current range of pump units, and the acoustic cabinet that encloses the engine achieves the lowest noise levels available for this type of equipment, says sales manager, Howard Chantry. Greencrop pump units feature a semi electronic control and engine protection panel, and they are offered with a three-way choice of starting systems that include programmed automatic starting, a manual pushbutton system or remote control using a telephone link. The pump units include a bunded fuel tank holding up to 1,750 litres and pumps are from the Caprari range. ■

Control system now standard on latest irrigators The latest Irrimec Elite from Greencrop Irrigation.

Greencrop Irrigation, the UK importer of Irrimec hose-reel irrigators, says that the range is now supplied as standard with the Dosicontrol Pro computer control, previously an optional extra. This GSM system provides diagnostic information and can record hours worked and water used for improved operator and management convenience. The Elite 730 and 735 offer

a range of hose diameters from 100–140mm and hose length options up to 580m. The intention is to offer longer hose lengths with the introduction of the new Elite 800 series, which is now available. The drive system continues with the proven Irrimec design. The drum is driven from one side by a cut gear ring positioned on the outer diameter of the drum. This is a lowtorque gear drive, which is positive and low-wearing, unlike a chain drive. Drum bearings are now fitted with an auto-lube cartridge ensuring problem-free reliability,

according to Greencrop. The turbine drive retains Irrimec’s patented partial-flow Turbimec system, interchangeable for flows of 10–130m3 per hour at low inlet pressure. For more durability during demanding long irrigation periods, the chassis are made of large steel frames using a 5mm-thick box section. The hydraulic legs are 50 per cent larger than those of the predecessor, with built-in internal rams for improved weather resistance. They’re designed to exert a central push against the drum for added stability. The gun-lift frame is also 50 per

cent larger than before, and pivots higher on the machine for additional strength and reliable operation. The Elite is supplied with a full hydraulic system for operation of the jack, turntable and legs, with the control levers now mounted on their own adjustable stand at the front of the machine. The machines are available with either a single- or tandem-axle chassis, and a large range of tyres. Greencrop will be attending the Royal Highland Show supporting its Scottish dealers where, alongside the Elite irrigator, it will be displaying its high quality irrigation pump set and hose reelers. ■

Real-time remote irrigator control Take advantage of good Users of Bauer’s Centerstar pivot and Rainstar reel irrigation systems and its diesel irrigation pumps can keep track of one or more irrigation systems remotely using the SmartRain online management and documentation system. A solar-powered GNSS satellite antenna mounted on a Rainstar reel irrigator chassis or the Universal PRO-G control unit on a centre-pivot tower records the position of the irrigator and its progress, while a mobile device app provides remotecontrol access to the irrigators and pumps and receives SMS or email messages on designated mobile phones. The documentation aspect of the SmartRain package provides automaticallysaved records of water usage and of individual The SmartRain app.

irrigator operation, based on measurements and information about soil conditions, soil moisture and the size and shape of fields, to help optimise management and minimise costs. Bauer’s reel irrigator range comprises the compact Rainstar T series, which starts with the T32, handling Bauer PE pipe in 65–85mm diameters from 220–350m long, and the full-size E series, which tops out with the E55 XL carrying pipe lengths of 560–740m in 125 –140mm diameters. The Centerstar range of pivot irrigators recently added to the range available in the UK and Ireland is based on three sizes of fixed or mobile towers with boom configurations of: up to eight spans covering 60 hectares (150 acres) and 150m3 per hour; 14 spans for up to 150ha (375 acres) and 400m3 per hour; and 16 spans covering up to 220ha (550 acres) and 600m3 per hour. All can be serviced by a diesel irrigation pump from a 6-model range supplied with Caprari or Rovatti pumps and powered by FPT Industrial or John Deere Power Systems engines. ■

moling conditions The root structure of grassland is significantly improved with good drainage, and the dry weather in April has made conditions ideal for moling compacted grassland with very little surface disturbance, says Hankins Engineering. Often fields have adequate drainage schemes installed but aren’t working to their potential, the company states. But if outfalls and ditches are clear, moling over drains can rejuvenate the land and improve the efficiency of water movement through the soil strata. With the use of cover crops, late-autumn drilling and spring-sown crops, there’s an extended window for moling. Moling will help with the soil structure and help to provide the right conditions for the constant fight against black-grass, which thrives in poorly-drained heavy clay soils. Routine and rotational moling can help prevent problems occurring and provide an economic way of improving yields, says the company’s Ron Hankins. The Maidwell moler design was developed 35 years ago. There’s a

range of machines to suit all needs. According to Ron, it’s a robustly-built machine that’s withstood the test of time and increasingly higherhorsepower tractors. Not only are they built to withstand the use of large tractors and crawlers, but they also provide high clearance and the ability to cut through trash. Available for hire or purchase, the mounted and trailed single-, twin- and three-leg molers have a distinctive screw-adjusting doubleended leg incorporating a shear-bolt device that acts as a safety-release mechanism.

Farmers Guide 25 years ago

Forthcoming agricultural shows were featured in the June 1992 edition of Farmers Guide. They included the Royal Norfolk, the Lincolnshire Show and the Sprays & Sprayers event. A 125hp Mercedes Benz Unimog V1200AG and a Griffith 12t trailer were on Arthur Ibbett’s stand at the Royal Norfolk show and, on stand 425, Trac-Systems at Framlingham, Suffolk as showing JCB Fastracs, JCB telehandlers and Zetor tractors.

Entries in the Farm Machinery Ideas competition at the Show included a tractor mounted outdoor pig food dispenser and a use for old bags to make a windbreak or sheep hurdles. Exhibits at the 109th Lincolnshire Show, held north of Lincoln, included a new French automatic planter for veg and salad growers on the Leverton stand and a range of 4–14t Bailey trailers. The Grand ring programme included the Musical Ride of the Household Cavalry and the Metropolitan Police Motor Cycle Precision Team. Farmers Guide noted that visitors from the USA, Canada and France were expected to be among the 5,500 plus attendance at Ciba Geigy’s Sprays & Sprayers event near Cambridge. The 70 plus exhibitors included Berthoud which launched a new range of mounted models with boom widths from 12–21m, in-cab electric controls and self-emptying spray tanks. Lely exhibited its range of nine Sprite sprayers for small

The Unimog Hoeing sugar beet in the 1950s with a front mounted tool bar on a 25hp Unimog.

A group of German engineers were experimenting with a prototype fast tractor in the mid-1940s which resulted in the first Unimogs being made at Goppingen in Germany, 1949. The specification included a 25hp Mercedes Benz engine, a wide range of forward and reverse gears, hydraulic linkage and a load carrying platform at the rear. The Unimog name was derived from Universal Motorised Gerat (vehicle) and 600 had been built when Daimler Benz bought the company in 1951, and production was transferred to Gaggenau. Implements made for the Unimog included front and rear toolbars, a front-mounted mower, sidemounted forage harvester, hay tedder and a crop loader. An 82hp petrol engined

Unimog appeared in 1955 followed three years later by a longer wheel base model with an enclosed cab. It was also the first tractor to have synchromesh transmission. The early 1960s saw the launch of the Unimog 406 with a 65hp petrol engine, an optional direct injection diesel engine was added in 1966 and the first 100hp Unimog appeared in 1969. Further models, which appeared in the early 1970s, gave farmers a choice of 6 models of Unimog from the 36hp U34 to the U84 with the option of an 84 or 110hp petrol engine. The mid-1980s Unimogs ranged from the 52hp U600, with 12 forward gears, to the 150hp U1500AG, with a 16 forward and reverse gearbox. In 1990 the U1700, with a 170hp 6-cylinder engine and a top speed of 47mph, was the most powerful Unimog on the UK market. The Terramatic electronic hydraulic linkage control, introduced in 1994, improved the Unimog’s ploughing performance and an optional hydrostatic transmission became available in 1997.

and medium farms and the latest Hardi models included a range of trailed machines with adjustable wheel tracks, 2,400-litre tank and boom widths of up to 24m. Evrard introduced a new anti-wheel spin system for its hydrostatic selfpropelled machines at the event and Cleanacres introduced a new self-propelled sprayer. With 4-wheel hydrostatic drive and a 115hp diesel engine, the new Cleanacres sprayer had a low slung 2,000 litre tank to give it a low centre of gravity and there was a choice of 12–24m boom widths. On the machinery pages Garford Farm Machinery at Whittlesford near Peterborough introduced a new inter-row cultivator with self-cleaning, zero pressure tyres and a choice of hoe blades. Prices ranged from £2,700 for the 5-row, rear-mounted model to £6,680 for a 12-row front mounted hoe. Lynx Engineering at Daventry announced a new range of tractor mounted front linkages and power

drive systems, and Kverneland introduced a series of new ring options for its Vaderstad Rollex land rollers. Case IH announced the introduction of the giant 380hp 9280 articulated tractor. The largest tractor yet to be imported into the UK, it had a 12-speed full powershift transmission, weighed 16t and had a price tag of about £100,000. A feature on straw incorporation with disc harrows included models from Kongskilde, Quivogne, Overum Ransomes and Dowdeswell. Parmiter advertised its answer to the fast approaching straw burning ban with five ranges of disc harrows with the heaviest model weighing a massive 600lbs per disc. Lely promoted its range of disc harrows which offered rigid and hydraulic folding models with working widths from 9ft 6in–15ft 9in. Simba advised readers that its hydraulic folding disc harrows were the only ones to have a torque tube ensuring even penetration across the full width of the harrow. ■

100 years of Fordson More than 2,000 tractor enthusiasts and their families gathered at Jim Butler’s farm in Rowde near Devizes on 1st May, for an event marking the centenary of the Fordson tractor, as well as celebrating Ford and New Holland tractors from the past 100 years. Almost 150 tractors from all eras took part in the event, including an original 1917 Fordson Model F brought along by joint organiser TH White. Many of the tractors proved that they could still work the ground in a series of demonstrations and the

day succeeded in raising £8,000 for four highly deserving charities – Dorothy House, Julia’s House Children’s Hospices, The Royal Agricultural Benevolent Institution and Devizes Young Farmers.

Tier 4A tractors join the ranks The T5.115.

Visitors to Grassland and Muck last month had their first look at New Holland’s recently-launched T5 Utility tractor range, alongside its latest round and square baler models. The five brand-new Tier 4A Utility models from 75–114hp complement the three Tier 4B Electro Command models launched last year. New T5 Utility tractors can be specified with 2- or 4wd on all Synchro-Shuttle models, but 4wd drive only on the others, plus a wide choice of transmissions including Dual Command, Power Shuttle and creep speed. Loader-ready, the T5 can support a maximum lift capacity of up to 2,539kg with a maximum lifting

height of 3.7m from New Holland’s 740TL front loader. For added versatility, a front linkage is also available, offering a lift capacity of 1,670kg with a 1,000rpm PTO. Rear lift capacity is a maximum of 4,400kg with a second assist ram. A 3-speed PTO featuring ECO and ground speed increases the variety of implements that can be used and reduces fuel consumption. In the spacious VisionView cab, there’s an ergonomic control layout, a choice of seats and air conditioning. A full-width high-visibility roof panel gives improved safety, particularly when using a front loader. The heavy-duty front axle on the three largest models gives greater

load-carrying capacity, further enhancing these tractors for loader work. Alongside the T5 Utility on its first outing are the extensively renewed and upgraded RollBaler 125 fixed round-chamber baler and BigBaler 1290 Plus square baler. The RollBaler 125 boasts a 2.3m-wide pick-up, 10cm wider than the previous model. A new, advanced roller reduces crop losses even in dry conditions, ensuring consistent and superior bale density, according to New Holland. The new flagship BigBaler 1290 Plus is the company’s largest square baler yet. Features include IntelliCruise technology for ground-speed regulation and SmartFill feed-flow indicators for even bale formation. The new biomass kit is said to make short work of stiff and stalky biomass material, while the MaxiSweep pick-up design improves productivity over high-tonnage windrows. The baler is said to raise the bar on durability and reliability, with improved wear resistance and easier maintenance for reduced stoppages.

Dealer expansion in Dorset New Holland dealer Francis Bugler is expanding its influence in Dorset, particularly the area around Blandford Forum, with plans to open a fourth depot. The firm already operates from Beaminster in the same county, Yeovil in Somerset and Axminster in Devon. The company’s John Bugler says: “After more than 30 years of our successful partnership with New Holland, we believe it’s time to expand our business and enhance customer service and support in Dorset.” New Holland business director UK & ROI Andrew Watson says: “It’s exciting to hear that our dealers are investing in our industry and in our brand. “Francis Bugler will offer a great wealth of knowledge of New Holland machines, together with the highest level of assistance and local support.”

Philip Beales farms 200 acres in the Cockfield area of Suffolk, growing wheat, sugar beet, spring barley and oil seed rape. “I have been there since 1983,” said Phil. “In 2010 I built my own 500t grain store, using second-hand materials sourced through Farmers Guide. Even the new roofing and side sheets were sourced from adverts in Farmers Guide. “Being a small acreage farmer I don’t usually buy new machinery so your farm ads are really useful for buying and selling. Recently I have sold my farm truck and a small tractor and have purchased a min-till cultivator - all through Farmers Guide.” Phil describes the magazine as brilliant and also enjoys the articles. Phil had his first taste of farming when he was about 10 years old and his dad bought a calf each for him and his sister to raise. At an early age he was sent out to harrow a field and could only put the Fordson EN into gear by standing on the clutch with one foot and using the other to push the gear stick! Phil farmed in Gislingham from 1969-1983, working for his father-in-law and share farming the arable side of a 3,500 pig fattening unit. “In 1977 we were one of three known people to break the then existing world record for growing wheat,” explained Phil. “I have a newspaper cutting recording 88.2cwt/acre of Hobbit. ADAS recorded specific weight and thousand grain weight and made it 90.06cwt/acre. “In 2011/12 and again in 2014/15 British Sugar awarded me certificates for achieving membership of its 100 Tonne club. The 2014/15 yield was 108t/hectare.

Alex Godfrey, who farms in Lincolnshire, said: “I am delighted to be re-appointed as chairman for a further two years and I look forward to continuing to deliver the forum’s objectives during 2017. We have a lot to do. Not least with ensuring the potato sector

is well represented in NFU Brexit policies, but also in addressing some of the key concerns for our members in the domestic market. NFU Potato Forum vice chairman, Tim Papworth, who grows 10 varieties of potatoes for several customers in Norfolk, said: “This will be my second term as vice chairman, after holding the post of chairman since its creation. I am pleased to be able to support Alex and the forum members, represent my fellow potato growers during what will be undoubtedly the most critical period for farmers and growers in a generation.”

Born into a farming family, Mark has 20 years’ experience in the agricultural machinery industry at both dealer and manufacturer level, originally in the implement sector. He is highlighting the importance of the AEA to its members as the UK continues

on its path out of the EU, saying: “Members will rely heavily on the AEA for economic information, market data and standards information, all of which will change dramatically in the coming years. “The AEA is very well placed to provide its members with accurate and timely information to ensure they can react to the needs of the market to maintain or improve their business activities. “Strong connections to government institutions and to Brussels will ensure we can lobby for the best interests of our members.”

It was with great sadness that Ben Burgess announced the death of Urban Curson, its former joint managing director, at the age of 91. His funeral was held on 19th May at Earlham Crematorium, Norwich. Urban was a leader in the grainhandling revolution on farms across eastern England, installing grain storage and handling systems with the Norwich-based agricultural

engineers for more than 40 years. He was born on the family’s small mixed holding at Great Dunham, near Dereham, just as farming’s fortunes hit an all-time low. As the industry slowly recovered, and with the growing interest in mechanisation, he joined Boddy’s, a milking equipment specialist. Later he worked for agricultural engineers including J & J Wright of Dereham and finally the rapidly-expanding Nuffield tractor dealership, Harstons of Fakenham.

Sales person hits the highway Ben Burgess Ellington is announcing the appointment of a new member of its agricultural sales team. Rebecca Baker will cover the area west of the A1 from the Ellington branch near Huntingdon and will be responsible for selling the full portfolio of agricultural equipment including John Deere, Manitou, Weidemann, Kuhn and Bailey Trailers. She has extensive sales

After it collapsed in 1960, he was recruited by the firm’s founder, Ben Burgess, and threw himself into the newly-formed grain storage division. Urban became joint managing director with Malcolm Fuller in 1985, retiring in 2001 aged 76. A highlight of his career was the first grant of a Royal Warrant in 1989 to Ben Burgess & Co, officially sealing the firm’s long association with the Sandringham Estate, which had been initiated by Ben Burgess in 1932 when a Marshall tractor was demonstrated

and sold to King George V. Urban was also instrumental in planning the move out of the heart of Norwich and designing the new headquarters in Trowse, which opened in 1992. For many years he held various branch posts in the East Anglia branch of the Institution of Agricultural Engineers.

Having grown up on a small family arable farm in north Bedfordshire, she completed a foundation degree at the University of Northampton in land management and agriculture. After five years with a large grain merchant based in Suffolk, Rebecca began her sales career in 2011 at a Case IH dealership. Ellington depot manager Steve Trostler says: “Rebecca is wellrespected by the local agricultural community. She will be an asset to the Ben Burgess sales team.”
