Out and About with the FG team Turning back to the hoe to weed out resistance Camera-guided inter-row and inter-plant hoes from Lemken-owned mechanical weed control specialist Steketee.

there appears to be growing interest in the weed control technique. It’s true that hands have been forced by the growing resistance of certain weeds to a diminishing armoury of crop protection chemicals, as well as increased influence wielded by environmental campaigners, but with little more power and fuel needed to pull shallow hoe tines between the plants than is required for a heavy sprayer, it’s a low cost operation too.

Beet blues With two out of four British Sugar factories now open, and the other two scheduled to open in early October, the 2018/19 beet harvesting campaign will be underway by the time this magazine lands on the doormat. But the question on everyone’s minds is how will yields fare following the extreme weather witnessed during the summer? Suffolk grower and former NFU sugar board member Bill Baker reckons root weights are 20 per cent down across his farm near Bury St Edmunds, and he now faces the problem of having to lift the crop from “rock hard” soil. “Sugar percentages should be creeping up a bit now but getting the

And finally… In the record breaking hot summer of 2018, and taking a well-earned break before harvest started, a Norfolk farmer fell asleep in his swimming trunks on a beach for several hours and got terrible sunburn, specifically to his upper legs. He went to the hospital and was promptly admitted after being diagnosed with seconddegree burns. With his skin already starting to blister and in severe pain, the doctor prescribed continuous intravenous feeding with saline drip, a sedative and a Viagra pill every four hours. The duty nurse was rather astounded and asked: “What good will Viagra do for him doctor?” The doctor replied, “It won’t do anything for his condition but it will keep the sheets off his legs.” Thanks to Susan Slaughter of Potters Crouch, St Albans, Hertfordshire for this month’s joke.

It’s often said of agriculture that nothing is new and that, over time, practices go full circle. That certainly seems to be a possibility where weed control is concerned, as a return to large-scale mechanical control in growing crops looks set to increase. At a recent French press event Lemken announced its surprise acquisition of Dutch mechanical weed control specialist Steketee, signalling that use of precision and cameraguided hoes might not remain limited to specialist vegetable producers in future. Lemken’s purchase includes Steketee’s full product line apart from its crop storage division, and all the current management and staff will remain. Lemken’s large multi-national distribution and sales network means farmers in all areas will have access to specialist sales and back-up and, with the family-owned company having a reputation for not skimping when it comes to R&D investment, we can expect the range of precision machinery to grow and become a common sight on UK arable farms in the future. Other manufacturers too have recently introduced mechanical hoes to their ranges and

crop out of the ground in these conditions without damaging roots is going to be difficult,” commented Bill, who estimated that yields from this season will be well down on the five-year average. In addition, and just ahead of the new lifting campaign, British Sugar and NFU Sugar announced the new sugar beet contract offer for the 2019 season. A one-year 2019 contract price of £19.07/t is on the table for growers (equivalent to £20.42/t with no crown tare reduction). “It’s down on the previous three-year deal,” pointed out Bill, “but I’m afraid it reflects the current state of the world sugar market and prices are depressed. “It’s not enough if I’m honest, and with the lower yields expected for this harvest, and the loss of neonics for next spring, it’s hard to be overly positive about the crop at the moment.”

Grain & Fertiliser Gossip

by Graham Henderson – graham@henders.biz Well, there is ample opportunity for puttering this week (week ending 14th September) with the celebration of ‘Back British Farming Day’ and the new Agriculture Bill being announced in parliament on 12th September. Plenty of blarney from politicians wearing large splays of grain in their lapels or on their blouses. Balderdash was the order of the day. Michael Gove is taking control of the future of agriculture and everyone should be full of happiness!? So what have we learnt so far? Virtually nothing positive, and to me it is as clear as Brexit! We understand that there will be no new financial rules operational until 2027 – 9 years away. However, from 2021, those farmers currently receiving in excess of £150,000/year subsidy will, from that date, have this reduced by 25 per cent and then further reductions until 2027. From 2027 onwards it appears that payments are unlikely to be made based on any form of production but will be totally reliant on environmental commitments including planting trees, defending properties from flooding, and further public access to the countryside. I can see there being problems in getting any money without giving up land in exchange for an environmental benefit. One of the key agricultural problems with Brexit is maintaining livestock export opportunities, which is a primary source of income especially for sheep farmers. Meanwhile, the weather has been kind locally, and I believe nationally, in September to date, with any rainfall occurring mostly at night. The cereal harvest is in and significant cultivation and drilling has already been completed.

Fertiliser Fragments Urea has come down in price by around £10/t and ammonium nitrate has increased close to £277/t – up by around £20/t. Therefore urea is being bought by growers at the moment. I cannot fully understand these market shifts although currency values are playing a big part. It is some time since I covered the value of sulphur to crops and in particular cereals. The reason that sulphur application is needed is based on the fact that, historically, it was deposited on the land as SO2 from power stations and industry, and that was sufficient for crop needs. Sulphur is a nutrient that builds yield in cereals and oilseeds, but if it is deficient then nitrogen applied will not maximise yield. Deficiency is widespread in both barley and wheat and is generally identified by yellowing in the crop. It can be easily remedied by an application of 50kg S/ha in early March. Normally this would be by a nitrogen sulphur (NS) product. Chalky or sandy soils are the most likely to be deficient. Correct S fertilisation also improves the quality of grains and oilseed. So if you have not bought your

nitrogen yet, buy some NS with it, and, if you have bought your nitrogen, order some NS!

Grain Gossip Wheat prices have fallen further since last month with today’s value of feed around £166/t ex-farm for November due to better stock levels than originally thought. On this price soft wheat commands a £6/t premium, good protein hard a £3/t premium and full spec milling wheat is £10/t higher. Feed barley is around £163/t ex-farm for November. Vivergo Fuels has just announced this week that its bioethanol plant will shut down by the end of September which has had a negative effect on UK wheat prices. With China and the US promising to start discussions on reopening talks on their trade embargos, there is hope for the future. Australian wheat production is down to 19.1mt which is the lowest production for 11 years. This could well affect European prices in the longer term. As I said last month, there could be further big swings on wheat prices as we go forward.

Sporting Snippets It is only fair to start with the success of the England cricket team. Winning four Test matches out of five against India was great in itself but it came with some special moments. Alastair Cook crowned his excellent career with a magnificent score of 147, and James Anderson took the final wicket of the Oval Test to become the leading pace bowling wicket taker in the history of cricket. What a glorious match it was to watch. I do hope they will both be recognised in the New Year’s Honours. The rugby season has started well with both Exeter and Saracens in good form. There was a thrilling game between Bath and Gloucester

which ended in a draw. Matt Banahan scored the final try against his old club and the Bath supporters gave him a good accolade. Danny Cipriani played well for his new club Gloucester. The current talk has been about the offer to buy 51 per cent of the Premiership for £550m by CVC Capital Partners which used to own the FI motor racing group. The Premiership teams turned it down which I thought a good decision. However, now the ball has been sent rolling, I am sure discussions with other organisations will be forthcoming.

Field f cus Flea beetle infestations in oilseed rape have caused our East Midlands- and West-based agronomists concern, while the extreme weather experienced this summer will have a lasting affect on root and maize crops yet to be harvested. Dominic Kilburn writes.

With maize harvest underway in the East Midlands, there is concern about the huge variability in crop height – an affect of the extreme weather experienced during the growing season.

Speaking in midSeptember, Nottinghamshire based Arable Alliance and AICC agronomist Andrew Wells confirmed that harvest yields across the region had been varied in all crops but, considering the extreme weather in 2018, they were not as bad as had been anticipated. Having said that, he admitted that on the lighter soils and where wheat had been drilled very late, the crop had not fared well. “Considering how good crops looked at the end of May, and then the drought that followed through much of the summer, it was a season of unfulfilled potential,” commented Andrew. “Maize harvest is just beginning and there is huge variation in its height – from 4–8ft – and there are root crops like beet and potatoes yet to be lifted and so we haven’t seen the last of the unfulfilled potential as yet,” Andrew added. At the time of writing, he said that the majority of the rape area was drilled up with most crops at the cotyledon to 1-leaf stage and looking well set, although where there was a lack of moisture, some crops had yet

to emerge. Crops direct drilled around the 10th August however were well ahead, with some currently at the 4-true leaf stage. Flea beetles made a rapid and unwelcome return to oilseed rape crops on 3rd September, following a very warm weekend – prior to that Andrew noted that there had been little sign of them. “Flea beetle numbers have been much higher than in previous years and consequently I’ve applied more insecticide this season than I would normally. I have also encouraged growers to spray at night to better target the adult beetles when they are feeding on the crop. “As a result we are just about hanging on to crops in the worst areas,” he added. With nothing obvious appearing in the pipeline in terms of new insecticides to adequately control flea beetle, Andrew questioned whether growing less rape was one of few available solutions where infestations are known to be bad. “I have however observed again that where we employ minimal soil disturbance when drilling, leaving the previous cereal stubble in place, this does appear to reduce the level of flea beetle infestation.” Andrew reckoned that there appeared to be a bit less OSR in

the ground this autumn, and less enthusiasm for spring pulses and spring wheat following last season’s difficulties, but more of an appetite for spring barley. “With reasonable prices currently being seen for cereals, more second wheat and barley is being planted, and because of an early start to the maize harvest in the area, there will be a better opportunity to get cereals in after that is finished.” By the time this is being read, he suggested that the first of the winter wheat and winter barley drilling will be underway (in late September) on land untroubled by grass weeds, while mid-October onwards is his target for fields with a history of black-grass and ryegrass. “Stubbles are already greening up nicely and so growers should have a good opportunity for successful grass weed kill with glyphosate before drilling on that land begins. “Some growers will be getting a little twitchy by then and of course so much depends on the weather at that time of the season,” he added. With this season’s sugar beet harvesting campaign set to get underway shortly, Andrew commented that growing the crop next year could be a real challenge with the ban in place for neonicotinoid seed treatments. “I’m not relishing trying to deal with aphids next spring with products that don’t control them,” he said. “A lot of growers are young enough not to know what severe virus yellows looks like, however there is always the hope that we can get an ‘Emergency Authorisations’ use for more effective aphicides in time for the 2019 season,” he concluded.

West Like Andrew Wells, Herefordshire-based Hillhampton Technical Services independent agronomist Antony Wade also reckoned that yields at harvest had been better than expected. “Despite slightly less drought in the West compared with other parts of the country, we were feeling a little pessimistic about potential yields, but, on the whole, although spring crops were poor, winter wheats and other autumn drilled crops did OK,” said Antony. Similar to the experience of growers in Nottinghamshire hotspots, Antony said that flea beetle came in to crops at the exact same time in early September.

“We’ve been lucky with flea beetle until now but this is the worst year to date,” he stressed. “We haven’t had to spray for flea beetle in previous years but that’s not been the case this time.” Antony suggested that the lack of rainfall at the time of writing (in mid September) hadn’t helped, with crops sitting at 1-leaf and not getting away. Like many agronomists across the country, he said he was doing all he could to persuade growers from starting their winter wheat drilling programmes too early, to help in the battle against the increasing appearance of black-grass in the region as well as long established threats of brome and ryegrass. “We’ll spray off as many of the chitted weeds as possible preplanting,” added Antony. Looking further into October oilseed rape disease control is on the agenda, although, with fewer products available to control the key diseases, and with fungicide costs increasing, he will try and limit autumn applications to one spray. “Increasingly we are looking to varietal resistance to manage disease in oilseed rape,” he pointed out. Antony has been involved in under-sown maize trials in recent years – a method of establishing a cover crop between the maize rows and left to protect the soil over-winter once the maize has been harvested. However trials have proved a challenge this year due to the lack of moisture and problems with cover crop establishment. “Cover crops planted at the same time as the maize fared better than that which was sown between the maize rows in June, and consequently struggled to establish due to lack of moisture. “If anything, the cover crops in the trials this year competed for the little available moisture and that will have affected the maize yield – but it was an exceptional year to say the least!” With a significant planned area of spring cropping on farms in the region, where cover crops for over winter soil protection (and grazing in some cases) have gone in after wheat and ahead of spring crops, they have established well, summed up Antony. “Cover crops can be tricky after a late harvest but this season, with harvest finishing in mid-August, they went in the ground in good time.” Antony can be contacted on 07973243590 or on Twitter: @ HTSagronomy. ■

Saving time is a massive deal when you’ve got a day full of jobs to do, and our herbicide formula helps you do just that. Its highly concentrated formula takes up less storage space and saves you time filling the sprayer. In the extra time taken to pour and rinse competitor products, 12.9/ha could be sprayed with Stomp® Aqua by a 24m sprayer travelling at 12kmph. By lasting longer and working harder, it can make the difference to your day.

Avoiding the late drilling pitfalls With the winter wheat drilling window well and truly open, Heather Briggs gets expert advice for those planning to hang on a little longer before the drill starts moving. While late drilling winter wheat can offer advantages, growers need to consider these alongside any pitfalls, according to NIAB cereal crop varieties specialist Clare Leaman (right). On one hand, they can offer advantages such as reduced incidence of certain cereal diseases such as septoria tritici and eyespot and rust, but the downside is that the ground is colder, resulting in slower emergence and crops spend longer at each development stage. With increasing interest in drilling later, varieties are available which offer good yield and quality despite later drilling, she says. “It is better to choose varieties with the best track record for performing at this time; the Recommended List (RL) includes information on varieties which can be 61357

planted from November,” she advises. Generally speaking, varieties with a high tillering capacity tend to work well in a late drilling slot. Vigour, the crop’s ability to grow away quickly and pass through the development stages as quickly as possible, is important, as otherwise they can be vulnerable to other pests and diseases. “If seed is left in cold, wet soil, it may struggle to emerge with some rotting underground,” she warns. This means the ability to be up and out as soon as possible is crucial. When it comes to planting dates, growers should not be overconcerned about the calendar as soil conditions are more important, adds Mrs Leaman. “Of course as autumn advances, the weather becomes less predictable, but nevertheless you should still wait, if possible, and go in

when the soil is in the best possible condition.” Seed rates should be adjusted upwards so losses in establishment due to later planting can be recovered. Moreover, choice of seed dressing should depend on local experience, bearing in mind the previous crop. “Choosing the best drilling dates depends on getting the right balance of all the different factors.”

Testing situation Careful consideration of which varieties are suitable for drilling from mid-October onwards is crucial, says Limagrain UK arable technical manager, Ron Granger (right). “Most wheat varieties can be drilled in the late drilled situation but from experience and seasonal trials work there are varieties that will perform better than

most in this testing situation. “Get it wrong and you could be facing fairly substantial yield penalties, and this is totally avoidable. “Late drilling presents a unique set of challenges to the crop; soils will inevitably become cooler and wetter as winter draws in, so it is important to proceed with care and consideration to get the crop well established. “Consequently, late drilled crops will not have been in the ground as long as those drilled earlier in the autumn, so once growing conditions are favourable in the spring, it is important that the variety is quick off the blocks. “Translated into varietal characteristics this means that late drilled wheats need to be strong tillering, with a semi prostrate growth habit in the winter and have a faster plant development in the spring,” he says. When in a black-grass situation, the speed and vigour of the crop in the spring is very important as you need a variety that will compete with the black-grass when growing conditions become favourable in the early spring, he continues. “Within the Limagrain portfolio of wheat varieties LG Skyscraper, Motown and Evolution do have these desirable characteristics of good tillering in the late autumn with a faster speed of growth in the spring. “Data would also suggest that taller wheats are an advantage in the later drilling scenario with the benefit of larger plant canopies also playing an important role regarding keeping black-grass ear numbers and seed return to a minimum.” LG Skyscraper has shown itself to be very consistent in this situation continued over...

Oilseed Rape Herbicides Wheat varieties like LG Skyscraper have the desirable characteristics of good tillering in the late autumn with a faster speed of growth in the spring, says Ron Granger. ...from previous page

with very high yield potential in both seasons, adds Mr Granger. He acknowledges that spring wheat varieties have a place in the rotation for late drilling, especially in a black-grass situation; however, the right winter wheat varieties can be drilled through to the end of January without significant yield penalties.

Step change Late drilling varieties made a step change in tillering ability and overall performance, first with Robigus, and then Oakley, says KWS product development manager, John Miles (right). Today’s varieties have to deal with a changing climate; KWS trials during the 1990s indicated the crossover point for switching between winter and spring varieties was the end of October, but when these trials were re-run in 2012, November-drilled wheat also yielded well. “This is good news as it shows that growers have the opportunity to wait a little longer to lift sugar beet for example, but also those wanting to delay drilling well into October to control problem weeds, so they can opt for the higher margins and then drill winter wheat.” Mr Miles notes that many growers prefer to drill winter wheat rather than spring wheat, even when it is late, because the latter has limited herbicide options. “If winter wheat makes better

agronomic sense because it is well adapted to late drilling, there is no reason to opt for spring wheat.” Moreover, he adds, many growers forget how difficult spring cropping can sometimes be, as more is demanded from crops that at the same time can be less resilient to extreme weather events. Nevertheless, variety choice is key to coaxing the best performance as later drilled wheat needs to have the vigour to get away despite the colder, wetter soils, and once spring arrives, to move quickly. “Crispin makes a good choice as it can get going quickly, and the hard Group 4, Santiago is outstanding in the late slot in East Anglia,” says Mr Miles. “In addition, it gives a consistent specific weight of about 76kg/hl regardless of drilling date. He also recommends growers consider sowing Siskin and Kerrin when drilling late because both show good speed of movement in the autumn and spring, with good grain quality and inherently high yield. “Good seedbeds are a must and so is adjusting the seed rate to reflect both sowing date and seedbed conditions. Where crops get away perhaps too well, an early PGR will help support yields by evening the number of tillers. “Beware of pushing drilling date too far however, as in poor conditions crops will struggle to develop a root system before winter.” ■

Water companies value agronomist support Water companies are calling for more agronomist support on the back of the success of the Metaldehyde Stewardship Group’s ‘Get Pelletwise! Agronomic Updates’ system, that has now entered its fourth consecutive season. Thames Water catchment projects manager, Dr Joanna Clint (left) praised the sustained loyalty from agronomists in helping them to make informed decisions on water abstraction. “The system has been extremely valuable to date, but, in common with other water companies, we need more agronomists to sign-up,” she says. “Each year we spend a lot of time deciding when to abstract water from our rivers and watercourses because of the difficulty in anticipating metaldehyde levels. “The weekly reporting system, that collates the short reports filled in by participating agronomists on slug pellet treatments recommended during the week, really helps us to

make an informed decision,” she says. “The autumn is an important time for us as it’s when we replenish reservoir levels to ensure water stocks are available for the coming year. However, this also coincides with slug pellet usage, so knowing the exact timing of applications is extremely valuable.”

Bigger picture Dr Clint explains that it is not just the slug pellet application information that is useful, but the extra comments, which help to build the bigger picture. “Information on ground conditions can be extremely helpful,” she comments. “For example, if we know that soil is about to meet saturation point, and slug pelleting is taking place, then we can establish that there is a higher risk of metaldehyde entering watercourses.” There are currently over 90 agronomists signed up to the system. But some counties are still underrepresented and agronomists across the country are being urged to sign up, particularly those advising in high risk water catchment areas. As a case in point, Dr Clint explains

Increasing numbers of slugs are being reported in various parts of the UK, and this trend is set to continue with agronomists anticipating a moderateto-high slug pressure season. Certis technical manager Geoffrey Bastard warns growers not to be complacent even though little straw has been left after harvest and dry conditions have helped to keep slugs at bay. “We’ve seen slugs grazing on stubble and OSR volunteers following harvest, particularly in places where there’s been significant rainfall, and where soils are heavier,” he says. Geoffrey advises growers to adopt a risk-based IPM approach, which includes a combination of control methods to prepare for a potential influx of the pests. He adds that slug pressure should be frequently monitored on a field-byfield basis. “Assess the current in-field populations and ensure soils are well consolidated ahead of drilling. “However, I’d be cautious of cultivating too early, as working dry and cracked soils could cause more damage to the soil structure. This can slow down germination and negatively impact on the crop successfully

growing away from the pest.” Geoffrey also recommends slug trapping to recognise when slug pellets are required. “Monitor populations by placing slug traps with layers mash underneath,” he says. “Put traps out in the evening to be checked early the following morning. If you see four or more slugs, apply a ferric phosphate slug pellet, such as Sluxx HP.” He adds that using a high-quality, uniform, wet process ferric phosphate pellet, will provide good spreadability and durability in the field. “Ferric phosphate also comes with the added benefit of having no environmental restrictions, but growers should still be mindful of the specific application rates of the product to ensure best results,” says Geoffrey. ■

that Thames Water’s catchment covers a vast area of 11,000km2 and having reports from different parts of the region can help to determine geographical nuances, which then triggers a halt in abstraction in specific areas. “Last year we received comments explaining that significant damage had been caused by cabbage stem flea beetle. This meant that growers would be looking to minimise the damage from slugs even more than usual to help reduce the risk of further losses,” she explains. “Therefore, we were able to plan

for this by being aware that more slug pellets would be applied than otherwise anticipated. “It’s information like this, that we wouldn’t normally receive, that’s important as it helps us to correctly inform our abstraction teams about when it’s best to abstract,” she says. “In 2017, at Thames Water, we had 123 reports from 14 agronomists and although this is good, there are still gaps in some areas.” Agronomists can sign up to submit weekly reports online by visiting www.getpelletwise.co.uk/ agronomic-signup/. ■

Biostimulant boost in drought conditions The extreme conditions of the 2018 season have provided biotechnology company, AminoA Ltd, the perfect test-bed for its recently-launched liquid biostimulant AminoA FLO, says the company. Manufactured in the UK, AminoA FLO is a highly concentrated l-isomer amino-acid complex developed for use on arable crops with the aim of improving plant health and, as a result, delivering improved yield and quality. It contains synthetics and the latest crop penetrant technology to make it suitable for mixing with other agrochemicals. There are no restrictions on its use (apart from on organic crops), and it is recommended for all fungicide tank mixes at a rate of 1-litre/ha. In the case of severely stressed crops, or to encourage protein synthesis in wheat, pod-fill in OSR or other key target growth stages, it is recommended to be applied at 2.5-litres/ha. “Our products are deliberately designed to have broad-spectrum activity as they contain every essential amino-acid that plants

synthesise throughout their growth cycle,” says AminoA managing director, Richard Phillips. “Therefore, if applied to the plant at any stage from sowing to maturity the products can contribute positively to yield and quality if the plant is not already producing an optimal level of amino-acids itself. “We are satisfied that repeated use of our products in combination with other agrochemicals will enhance the effectiveness and produce a yield response in the crop,” Mr Phillips adds. “Most of our customers are conventional arable farmers who have realised that the considered use of biostimulants can boost yields and profits, while at the same time sustaining the fragile ecosystem in our soils,” he explains. “We have been delighted to work with Triton Farms across its 2,000ha in the UK, and it is very rewarding to see that the business has achieved record farm yields with a very low input system. “As a result Triton has already ordered 6,000 litres of AminoA FLO for the coming season,” he points out.

Variety impresses in tough growing season

For many UK oilseed rape growers, this year’s harvest brought a disappointing end to what has widely been acknowledged to be a very difficult and challenging year for the crop. A tough winter with very cold conditions in both February and March, was swiftly followed by a summer heatwave with little or no rainfall in many areas that affected both yields and moisture levels. But, despite the negatives some growers, including James Casswell who farms near Boston, Lincs, still managed to achieve consistently high yields. BASIS qualified Mr Casswell, who also contract manages a number of other farms in the area, achieved 4.4t/ha on an area exclusively made up of the OSR variety Elgar. Grown for client and local farmer Tom Oldfield, he is quick to acknowledge its consistency was the key in a season where many other varieties have failed to perform. “I’ve been working with Tom for a while now and I cannot recall a more

challenging agronomic year. His farm is mainly medium bodied clay and our establishment system for the Elgar crop was consistent with that of other crops I grow. “We direct drill using a Vaderstad disc drill straight into stubble. Inputs are then kept to a minimum to control costs so it helps to select varieties with a good disease resistance profile such as Elgar,” he adds. An early nitrogen application is important to support early growth so Mr Casswell applied 30kg/ha of bagged diammonium phosphate (DAP) shortly after the crop had established. “Once the fertiliser has gone on I go in with a graminicide. Then we spray with propyzamide for black-grass control and apply one fungicide spray during the winter, mainly to control sclerotinia. Through the spring and early summer, unless there is a serious disease threat, our next application is 4-litres/ha of glyphosate to

desiccate the crop just prior to harvest,” he says. Following the exceptional summer weather, Tom Oldfield’s crop was eventually harvested on July 17th which Mr Casswell says is the earliest he has harvested a crop of oilseed rape. “Fortunately, Elgar is an early maturing variety so even the mid-July harvest date didn’t seem to hurt us too much. When I recorded the weight at 4.4t/ha on the weighbridge before the crop went into central store I was pleasantly surprised, given that yields with some of our other varieties were well down on preharvest expectations. In a good year with better rainfall I would look at just under 4.5t/ha as a good standard for this area. To come so close in what has been such a

58082

tough growing season was great news. Following this result, it will be our main OSR variety for next year,” he concludes. Openfield head of seed business, Lee Bennett (left), confirmed his continued support for Elgar following the news on Mr Oldfield’s crop, adding that he was relatively unsurprised given the variety’s consistent performances over the past five years, since its arrival on the Recommended List. “Elgar remains one of the top yielding varieties on the RL. With a robust disease profile including a good score on light leaf spot, an excellent gross output and good oil content, it’s been our biggest selling OSR variety for the past two years. “Elgar works for growers and they keep coming back to it. I believe it will continue to be popular with growers for a number of years, largely because it’s an excellent all round variety,” he says. ■

Spot on with OSR disease control Fungicide applications from late October/ November onwards are known to be more effective and can be used to provide early protection.

Although many oilseed rape crops were drilled earlier than usual due to the good conditions at, and following, harvest, this can lead to further challenges. Heather Briggs seeks expert advice on disease control this autumn. Light leaf spot could be problematic particularly in susceptible varieties if growers fail to spray this autumn, warns ADAS plant pathologist Faye Ritchie (right). The disease affects all regions of the UK, making

it one of the most important disease threats to oilseed rape. It is a difficult disease to control with fungicides alone therefore, particularly in high-risk areas, there are benefits to using varieties

with high resistance ratings. Conditions this year meant some growers drilled early, which is a good strategy to mitigate against phoma, however, light leaf spot epidemics are often more severe in earlier sown crops. For light leaf spot control it is, therefore, important to have varieties with good resistance coupled with well-timed fungicide applications. Fungicides applied for phoma control in September or early October are often not effective for good light leaf spot control, notes Dr Ritchie. Fungicide applications from late October/November onwards are known to be more effective and can be used to provide early protection. Although many farms still have dry soils, as the autumn progresses there may be mild, damp conditions favouring light leaf spot and which also cause difficulties in getting on the land to spray, making control challenging. Dr Ritchie says: “Monitoring crops in January and February will also be key to good control. “There is no threshold for light leaf spot treatment pre-stem extension so if disease is found it should be treated as soon as possible if it is seen. “Light leaf spot is easier to manage with fungicides when levels are low and difficult to control if fungicides are applied at stem extension to heavily infected crops. “Both susceptible and resistant varieties will benefit from a protectant approach to fungicide applications,” she adds.

At the moment both azole and nonazole chemistry is effective against phoma and light leaf spot. Several years ago a non-azole product, Refinzar (penthiopyrad + picoxystrobin), came to the market but will no longer be available to use after 30th November this year. It will mean, going forward, growers will be reliant on azole and azole/non-azole co-formulations for the control of autumn oilseed diseases, points out Dr Ritchie. “The risk of pathogens developing resistance to fungicides is always a threat, particularly if we have to rely more heavily on a single mode of action for disease control. “It will be important to think about where we use different modes of action within the fungicide

programme and ensure that we use mixtures of products with different modes of action or alternate fungicide products with different modes of action, from autumn applications through to early spring and flowering sprays.” Wet conditions during August and September are key for spore development on stubbles, with backward crops and small plants at greater risk from stem canker development. This is due to the fungus having a shorter distance to travel from the leaf to petiole and to the stem. She remarks that phoma is still an important OSR disease across much of England with untreated autumn infections leading to spring and summer stem cankers that can reduce yields by as much as 25 per cent in severe years.

Light leaf spot on oilseed rape.

“I would advise combining high performance with good all round disease resistance that includes stem canker and light leaf spot where crops are at high risk from these diseases. “Aim to spray as soon as the phoma threshold of 10–20 per cent of infected plants is reached, and consider a second application when re-infection is seen which can be between 3–6 weeks later,” she continues. “Growing a more resistant variety helps to slow down the time it takes for the fungus to reach the stem following initial infection which can help to take some of the pressure off. “By the time phoma leaf spot occurs this year, early-sown crops are likely to be large enough for it to be less of an issue but later sown crops will be more at risk. “It is possible that we could be well in to October before phoma leaf spotting is seen if the dry weather continues and a one-spray approach may be sufficient. “Crops should be monitored after the first application and follow up spray planned if phoma leaf spot reinfection is seen.” ■

Beware the threat of TuYV

TuYV has the potential to reduce yields by up to 30 per cent and decrease seed oil content.

The lack of effective control measures for cabbage stem flea beetle has been the talking point of the autumn again this year. However, aphid pressure should not be dismissed as, once symptoms show, it is too late to take action. Although there are some varieties available that are tolerant or resistant to turnip yellows virus (TuYV), there are still a high percentage of crops that are not. Therefore action needs to be taken when aphids are

present to help prevent crop infection and ultimately potential margin loss, growers are advised. TuYV is carried by aphids, mainly myzus persicae, and it has the potential to reduce yields by up to 30 per cent and decrease the seed oil content. Recent studies have shown that over half of myzus persicae carry the virus, passing it on through feeding, therefore the potential for infection is extremely high. Increased aphid resistance to

pyrethroids compounded by recent losses of neonicotinoid seed treatments (that were giving a useful level of early aphid control) has left gaps in direct pest control measures. However, Teppeki (flonicamid) marketed by Belchim Crop Protection has recently received an approval for the control of myzus persicae in winter oilseed rape. It can be applied at a dose rate of 0.1kg/ha and with a latest timing up to BBCH 18 of the

crop (8-true leaves unfolded). It is also advised that a minimum water volume of 200-litres/ha should be applied to achieve maximum coverage of the plant. “This is a huge step forward in the control of this and other aphid species as there is no known resistance to Teppeki, unlike many other insecticides registered in this crop,” says Belchim cereals and OSR technical account manager, Ed Bingham. “Moreover, the excellent beneficial profile of Teppeki makes it the ideal product of choice in integrated pest management strategies. Teppeki has no arthropod or watercourse buffer zone either which serves to highlight its excellent environmental profile,” he adds. Further work is needed to fully understand the implications of the TuYV virus together with a greater understanding of aphid resistance and control across all crops. This work is vital to the future production of winter oilseed rape and, as this work continues, Teppeki will remain an important product for aphid and virus control in many crops including oilseed rape, Mr Bingham concludes. ■

Maximising weed control this autumn Crop rotation plays a key role in competing with black-grass but reverting back to old systems too quickly has seen control fall short in some areas, says Ben Stroud.

As autumn arrives, focus turns to another season of black-grass management. We hear from one farmer who has pushed weed populations down to manageable levels by paying close attention to drilling date and weather conditions. Ben Stroud, a dairy and arable farmer from Melton Mowbray treats black-grass as the highest priority when planning field operations. By forecasting his drilling dates and crop rotations around black-grass populations and emergence patterns Mr Stroud has seen a notable change in weed burden, thanks to his ruthless approach. “We prioritise fields on blackgrass pressure – we will not even consider drilling anything before 15th October even on clean fields that are free from black-grass, and anything that has even slight blackgrass pressure is not drilled until at least the last week of October.” Land with a high weed pressure is left until spring or used as a grass or lucerne ley which works well alongside Mr Stroud’s 200 head of dairy cattle. Using a traffic light system to pinpoint offending fields, the mapping system is updated each

Ben Stroud and his Claydon drill.

season and decisions are made based on each plot of land with drillings sequenced to target problem areas. “We are fairly high pressured with black-grass but, on the whole, it has definitely improved in recent years through the system we have put in place. Black-grass control last season was more variable than I’d have hoped – we had some very good success in places we didn’t expect, and then some areas where we hoped we’d get better control didn’t perform as expected. It’s definitely been a season of learning.”

Lessons learnt Crop rotation also plays a key role in competing with black-grass but reverting back to old systems too quickly has seen control fall short in some areas. “Where we’ve been hasty going back into a winter cereal rotation we’ve had not such good control, so I think the lesson that’s been learnt is that when you take control measures to improve the black-grass situation you can’t then go back to what you were doing before very quickly. “The grass and lucerne leys have certainly been beneficial, but spring barley really offers the best level of control because it is much more competitive than spring wheat. We haven’t grown spring beans before, but I feel they’re not competitive enough because you’re seeing a lot of bare soil.” Farming on very heavy soil makes spring cropping a challenge for Mr

Stroud, but he will be increasing his area of spring cropping despite this spring’s challenging weather conditions. “Our spring barley didn’t go in until the end of April this year, but it did okay. It wasn’t a record breaker by any means but the fields are very clean of black-grass, so I think drilling later really helped from a weed perspective. “Something I’ve always held in my mind with black-grass is that if we can’t get a winter cereal in the ground in the right conditions then we’ll leave it and go for a spring cereal. “It’s much better for us to do that than to try and force a winter cereal into a dry cloddy seedbed that you can’t get a pre-emergence herbicide on in time in good conditions. Black-grass is my number one priority in everything we do here and that includes crop rotation, cultivation, and drilling dates.”

Seed rates Robust seed rates have also helped to control the level of black-grass, but Mr Stroud says that this should be adapted on a field-by-field basis. “We increase the seed rate as we go later into October, so we tend to start with quite a robust seed rate anyway because we’re drilling late. We’ll increase that later into October so we’ll probably up it by 50 seeds/ m2 in the last week of October and if we end up going into November, a little bit more. “With seed rates you have to consider the seedbed conditions and weather as well. When deciding, it’s important to look at what seed rates you’ve used in that field previously and how they fared at harvest and adjust this accordingly, but where we’ve got black-grass pressure the rate certainly needs to be robust.” Application of a pre-em is recommended within 48 hours of drilling, to allow the active to target the rooting zone of weed. “We always roll before applying Liberator (flufenacet + diflufenican) but we always get a pre-em on as soon we can. It’s important that you’ve got moisture there and if

there is insufficient moisture in the soil, we will hold off with drilling until it is there. We see much better control of pre-ems where the seedbed has got moisture compared to applying to a dry cloddy seedbed.” Preparing the seedbed as soon as possible after harvest means that black-grass should chit prior to drilling. “We direct drill with a Claydon drill and we will do a light cultivation in front of that. Last year didn’t quite go to plan with this because it was very wet at the end of August and September. However, we’ve seen the best black-grass control when we do a light cultivation as soon as we can behind the combine and leave it as a stale seedbed right up until drilling. It not only gives the drill a better seedbed and a bit of tilth to work with, but also encourages black-grass to germinate.

Cultural control With around 80 per cent of blackgrass plants emerging in the autumn, pushing back drilling dates like Mr Stroud is probably the most critical factor in cultural control, according to Prof Stephen Moss (left) who created the ‘5-for-5’ campaign. “Delayed autumn sowings and an increase in spring cropping is probably the most valuable factor in the 5-for-5 initiative. Not only does it allow black-grass to emerge prior to drillings, but later drillings tend to see pre-ems work better because it’s typically cooler and moister in midOctober than mid-September. “The key thing is having a fiveyear plan of action and not thinking you will get on top of this in one year because around 25 per cent of seeds might survive from one year to the next. You can make a lot of progress after five years, but not enough over one or two. You’ve got to look at it long-term to make real inroads.” And getting over-excited by a drop in weed populations is a dangerous path to go down, according to Dr Moss. “This year people saw good control from preems so black-grass numbers were down, but this could lull them into a false sense of security in thinking they have solved the problem, so they start to drill early again or cut back on herbicides and then they are back to square one next summer.” ■

AGRONOMY UPDATE – EAST

A simple technique to improve spray coverage will help boost pre-em black-grass control this autumn, says Agrovista agronomist Rob Sheets. Achieving an even coverage of the seedbed when applying preemergence herbicides is vital to ensure the chemistry works as effectively as possible. One of the most important factors governing this is the number of droplets produced by the nozzle. We need to paint the soil evenly and, within reason, the more droplets we can produce, the more effectively we can do that. Using twin caps fitted to a single spray line enables us to double the number of nozzles, and therefore droplets, for the same water volume, and I would recommend a minimum of 200-litres/ha when spraying black-grass.

Nozzle know-how The twin caps have back-to-back nozzle apertures. Billericay twin caps are already angled forward and down, so two VP 80 flat fans can be used. Hypro Twincaps are inclined 30 degrees forwards and backwards, but fitting a Defy 3D (80-degree) nozzle to the rear-

facing aperture produces a nearvertical fan. Using twin caps mimics a twin-line set up, which has given excellent results in our trials. On heavily infested black-grass land in Northamptonshire, for example, applying full-rate diflufenican and flufenacet in 200-litres/ha of spray at 3 bar through twin lines fitted with blue 80-03 flat fan nozzles, carried 50cm above the ground, gave 90 per cent control. A single line set up of 80-04 flat fans, alternating forwards and backwards, gave just 80 per cent control. It really is worth spending the time to get application right. Too many people look to cover the ground quickly using around 100-litres of water/ha applied through low-drift nozzles so they can keep going in marginal conditions, but at what cost? Several of my growers have now adopted the twin cap technique, and they believe they are seeing a difference.

Whatever technique is being used to apply pre-ems, I’ll be recommending Remix, a long-chain hydrocarbon application aid that reduces spray drift and produces a more consistent droplet size. It also keeps the chemistry in the surface layer for longer to optimise weed control and reduce seedling damage.

Significant uplift Extensive trials over the past 10 years have shown Remix increases black-grass control from a typical pre-em stack by 11 per cent, a very significant uplift, for a few £/ha. Remix consistently outperforms competitor products. In the season just gone, for example, Remix and a product which claims to be the same were applied in a tank mix with pre-em Liberator (diflufenican + flufenacet) at 200-litres/ha through flat fan 04 nozzles, at three sites in the East of England. Remix gave an average 7 per cent uplift in black-grass control, and maintained a 2 per cent lead overall under four different postemergence follow-up treatments. That could make the difference between achieving the 98 per cent control we need to reduce the black-grass burden, or not.

I’ll also be keeping a close eye on grass weed control in oilseed rape. A combination of low-dormancy black-grass and the reduced cultivations when establishing OSR crop this summer means there are likely to be a lot of grass-weeds near the surface that will be germinating readily. As usual I’ll be starting early, using clethodim (as in Centurion Max) by the end of September, before following up with carbetamide (Crawler) in bad situations in October and propyzamide (Kerb) in all fields when conditions are cool enough to optimise activity. We cannot afford to wait and expect Kerb to kill large, well-tillered black-grass plants – that is a recipe for disaster. Centurion Max can no longer be applied on any variety of OSR after 15th October. We must also observe stewardship requirements on carbetamide and propyzamide if we want to preserve them for future use. Please do check all requirements carefully before application.

AGRONOMY UPDATE – WEST Replacements for failed oilseed rape crops and maximising early black-grass control are just two topics that are keeping Agrovista agronomist Esme Shephard occupied this month. Cabbage stem flea beetle has been widespread across my area of Wiltshire and neighbouring counties. Most fields have been hit hard, and some crops will need to be replaced. The good news is that crops sown into moisture, notably those that were direct drilled, had 2–4 leaves by mid September and are growing away well. Those established using more traditional cultivations have struggled, and have been sitting at the cotyledon stage through this dry weather, which has also been ideal for flea beetles. Some crops have been sprayed with pyrethroids, but with up to 60 per cent of flea beetles now said to be resistant, the effect is limited. Most crops will pull through, but growers faced with a few skeletal remains will need to rethink. The

most obvious replacement is winter or spring beans to maintain the break from cereals. These may not be as profitable as the crop they are replacing, but costed out over the rotation the decision is very likely to stack up. Growers who have applied chemicals, mostly pre-emergence at this stage, should beware of falling foul of any following crop restrictions as described on the label. For example, where clomazone has been used, manufacturers advise that winter beans cannot be sown until 6 weeks after application and soils must be ploughed to 25cm. The same restrictions apply to winter cereals. Some pre-ems are also subject to statutory restrictions, while others may offer some flexibility at growers’ own risk. Please do

check the label before ordering a replacement crop. Freshly shed black-grass seed is said to have low dormancy this year, so using the most effective pre-emergence chemistry will be even more important to achieve the best kill. We know from many trials over many years, as well as field experience, that tri-allate granules (Avadex Excel) deliver up to 30 per cent additional activity when added to the pre-em programme.

Liquid formulation However, Avadex Factor, the liquid formulation introduced last year, does not contain as much active at the full rate, so delivers less additional control. For that reason I’ll stick with granules, provided growers have access to an applicator, although Factor could still be useful for those that don’t. Whichever version is used, the aim should be to drill, roll and apply Avadex within 48 hours. The chemical (and other pre-ems) requires moisture to work, so a rethink may be required where

soils are bone dry, perhaps even delaying drilling until conditions improve, rather than risking a massive flush that proves impossible to control in the growing crop. If post-emergence control is required in the following few weeks, I’ll recommend Xerton (ethofumesate) at 0.6-litres/ha in addition to flufenacet, plus adjuvant Remix. Despite the long dry summer, slugs can be found and will need monitoring. If control is needed, for those of you who aren’t using solely ferric phosphate, it is important to remember the stewardship rules that came in last year for metaldehyde. These include leaving a 10m margin around any field boundary (including trees in the middle of a field) and utilising integrated pest management, such as rolling and creating fine seedbeds.

Better start for sugar beet Set to be listed on British Sugar seed orders for the 2019 season, Vibrance SB seed treatment has been shown to develop a faster root system for rapid and strong spring establishment, along with effective control of complex rhizoctonia, pythium and phoma seedling diseases, says crop protection company Syngenta. Vibrance SB combines a three-way mix of the new SDHI fungicide, sedaxane, with the proven seed treatments fludioxinil and metalaxyl-m. Research has shown the seed treatment provides an effective zone of protection from these soil borne infections around the seedling, even with repeated rainfall or irrigation events. Syngenta field technical manager, Georgina Wood highlighted that growers have become accustomed to control of damping-off diseases with the routine use of Thiram seed treatment. However, the regulatory withdrawal of that option for next year will leave crops exposed to severe losses which could be seen in untreated trials this year. “Vibrance SB provides better control of key diseases rhizoctonia, pythium and phoma, responsible for damping-off in adverse conditions,” she advised. “Where plants have

previously emerged and then died off, losses have been typically attributed to slugs and pests, but could have been seedling disease. “Better control of dampingoff diseases would achieve more consistent plant stands and, therefore, higher yields of consistently even root size at harvest.” Growers are still advised to maintain use of hymexazol for control of aphanomyces. BBRO head of science, Dr Mark Stevens, believes seed treatment protection to get crops and developing roots up and away early is key to consistent establishment, and could have plant health benefits through the season. “Growers have effectively suppressed seedling diseases for years with seed treatments. It remains crucial to maintain that historic control with new seed treatments, if we want to avoid the build-up of problems over successive rotations,” he commented. He pointed out that the effects of soil-borne sugar beet pathogens in the UK have been limited by previous seed treatment use, but changes in climatic conditions and crop rotations could create conditions typically experienced in continental Europe, where issues are more severe.

In brief...

Beet factory opening dates With the Bury St Edmunds and Wissington sugar beet factories opening on the 26th September for the 2018/19 harvesting campaign, British Sugar has also announced that the Newark factory campaign start date is 2nd October, and Cantley follows on the 10th October. British Sugar agriculture director, Colm McKay said: “We’re pleased to announce the sugar beet campaign start dates. The dates are aimed at striking a balance between supplying our customers with a quality product, allowing time for the crop to mature, and giving growers and hauliers time to plan their harvesting and delivery schedules.”

A grain marketing plan is vital in these uncertain times Continuing the series of columns focusing on key issues in the industry, Openfield’s head of Research and Compliance, Cecilia Pryce, warns of continued volatility in the grain market. With the ‘Beast from the East’ being followed by the hottest May since records began and one of the longest, driest summers, UK crops, livestock and farmers have faced an unprecedented set of weather events. If you then add to that the issues globally surrounding trade wars, added import tariffs, volatile currency and other major weather events, it’s easy to justify the amazing volatility recently seen in global grain markets. An increase in volatility is usually matched by a drop in crop availability, and this year is no exception, but it’s the way crop numbers globally have changed that has caught everyone out. Crops globally were giving little cause for worry for most of the spring but by late June concerns were starting to set in and the markets started to head north. Even the best weather forecasters would not have anticipated the extreme weather that then followed and the impact it had on many crops across the EU and Central Europe, which was only really felt when combines finally rolled.

Global influences The UK cereal and oilseed markets tend to get pushed around by global influences – the UK represents under 2 per cent of the world’s wheat crop, but, regardless of the size and quality of this year’s harvest, the UK tends to domestically consume a very large amount of what it produces. Over the years cheap grain has generated more domestic demand largely for feed grains, through ethanol, distilling, starch and livestock production. This has helped support UK cereal prices, but the divergence is now widening between quality and variety of grains being grown/ harvested. As UK breeders pushed for higher yielding milling wheats, UK growers have embraced them

to the detriment of feed types. This has had a detrimental effect on milling premiums and ironically exposed the UK to more imported, cheaper feed grains, mainly in the form of maize from EU and third country origins. Brexit will create its own uncertainties for the future but being domestically knowledgeable is vitally important when trading UK markets. Being able to judge global market moves, monitor import price parities, judge logistic constraints and the impact of legislative issues is vital for any trading house, and in a word full of too much information/noise it becomes more and more difficult for those not involved on a daily basis to keep on top of. For all these reasons, it’s important that famers have a grain marketing plan and think hard about varieties and crop types. Every year brings its uncertainties but while you are actively farming, markets are moving, and as any chart will show you, in a moving market every minute counts. We have seen daily price moves of over £6/t so far this season, where we have struggled to see that sort of move over months in other seasons. It’s a gentle reminder not to underestimate markets and spread your risk. The use of pools, trackers and options all have a place in a modern farm’s trading portfolio, as is having a specified tonnage to market when the mood takes you, but with so many uncertainties on the horizon it would be unwise not to have a freshly thought out grain marketing game plan which looks after the pennies just as much as the pounds.

Tractor and combine updates promise greater productivity At its UK headquarters, Nottinghamshire, John Deere announced upgrades to its tractor and harvester ranges during a press event in mid-August. David Williams attended. The popular 5R series tractor was launched in 2016 including models with 90, 100, 115 and 125hp, all with a 10hp boost for transport applications. Since their launch to complement lower specification 5M utility trcators, sales of the R version have exceeded all expectations, reported John Deere territory manager for Wales and West Midlands Darren Roe. “Superb visibility, a comfortable cab and the choice of three transmissions provides a very attractive package,” he explained. New features for 2019 increase their versatility and suitability for small to medium sized livestock and arable farms, and improved accuracy and reduced driver effort for field work is promised with two AutoTrac solutions. Previously 5-series tractors weren’t available with factory-fitted automatic steering and had to have an external steering motor retro-fitted to the steering wheel, but AutoTrac-ready comes with the integral steering motor and also includes Isobus-ready and GreenStarready specification. AutoTrac complete includes Isobus and GreenStar and the tractors are fitted with the latest 4240 display. StarFire 1 guidance offers accuracy within 15cm and is included, but greater precision is available through the subscriptioncharged StarFire 3. RTK can also be used. With the higher specification steering system fitted as part of either AutoTrac package, variable rate steering offers up to two and a

half times the standard response at low speeds, making manoeuvring easier through reduced steering wheel turns needed lock to lock and making the most of the tight 3.75m turning radius. Other new features include an extendable pick-up hitch with hydraulic pushback, operated through the rear SCVs.

Engines John Deere 4.5-litre PWX engines power the new 5090R, 5100R, 5115R and 5125R models meeting Stage 3b emissions regulations without Adblue. Transmission options include the base 16/16 CommandQuad manual with 4 ranges and 4 powershift gears. CommandQuad 16/16 and Command8 32/16 transmissions offer greater flexibility, the latter with 8 powershift gears and an Eco mode offering 40kph at just 1,759rpm. All have automatic clutches, individual start-up gears and electric parking lock. Auto shifting is standard on Command8 and an option on 16/16 CommandQuad. Greater comfort and higher working speeds are possible with optional front axle suspension, mechanical cab suspension, and an air-suspended seat from 6R models offers 15 degrees of swivel, lumbar adjustment and optional heating. Many 5-series tractors are used with front loaders and for control there is a choice of mechanical or new e-joysticks, both linked to the tractor seat. The e-joystick has assignable buttons allowing

control of the mid or rear e-SCVs for improved implement management. Rear lift capacity is 4.7 or 5.3t as an optional upgrade.

CommandPro extended

6155R tractors, both with 155-litres/ min flow rate, up 23 per cent on the previous standard pump. Improved ease of access for daily checks includes an engine dipstick door, allowing checking without raising the bonnet. John Deere also confirmed at the event that its 6R models above 130hp already meet Stage 5 emissions regulations due to come in to force in January and it added that the most recent PowerMix test in Germany demonstrated that the 6250R has set a new record for total fluid consumption in its power class, of only 364g/kWh in transport mode. The fuel guarantee scheme operated by John Deere for its 7310R last year

CommandPro – John Deere’s multifunction joystick, was launched in 2016 but was only available for the new long wheelbase 6230R and 6250R 6R series flagships. Joystick control of the CVT transmission proved immediately popular and the benefits it provides for operators were recognised when selected as the machinery category winner at the Farmers Guide Awards for Excellence last year. As many customers and dealers hoped, the joystick will also be available on all other 6R models with AutoPowr transmission, from early 2019. Also upgraded for next year is the CommandCentre display and options include the large 4600 or smaller 4200 8.4in version which replaces the previous 4100 7in, with 20 per cent increased screen area. The 4200 screen controls AutoTrac, Section Control, data documentation and other applications and is The new 4640 display is an option on 5R ready for AEF-certified Isobus series tractors. functions including joystick is being rolled out for 6-cylinder 6R control and data sharing between tractors for transport applications, tractors and implements. and for field work.

Combine updates include significant improvements to W-series including a completely new cab with similar comfort to larger models in the range.

The cab offers 15 per cent more space and an improved control layout.

Time-saving automation allows the driver to set the crop type on the screen, and initial combine settings are then made by the system.

and bringing it up to match the comfort levels of John Deere’s larger combines. “They offer 15 per cent more space, new improved controls and control layout and better information availability through an 8x3in colour touch-screen,” explained harvester territory manager Ian Clark. “Auto adjustment of settings replaces previous manual control and the new CommandCentre allows crop settings to be entered, then the base settings are made automatically, which is a real help to operators and unique in this size class.” A new feeder housing for the W330 PTC improves crop intake and optional lateral tilt maintains even stubble height on slopes. A multi-coupler allows quick table connection on all models. Unloading auger output is increased allowing the trailer to spend less time and reduced distance alongside the harvester in the field. The W330 PTC benefits from an increase from 55–75-litres/ sec and the W440 increases from 55–100-litres/sec. T-series straw walker combines offer the highest capacity on the market, claims John Deere and a new concave design allows swapping of concave sections to suit different crops and conditions easily to optimise performance. Changeover time is just 15 minutes but offers performance improvement up to 12 per cent. A new separator grate is standard with steel separation segments replacing previous cast iron fingers for higher output. At the same time, distance between the rear beater drum and grate below has been reduced allowing more aggressive separation. Independent tests have confirmed performance improvement up to 10 per cent in wheat and 2.4 per cent in barley. A new LED lighting package is

available, improving night and poor visibility working conditions. Also improved is ease of engine servicing with a new central oil drain bank allowing oil changes with reduced risk of spillage.

New tracks S- and T-series combines from the T560 up, also gain a new track option for 2019, with 30 per cent larger footprint than other systems currently available. A longer track belt and base roller arrangement means the narrower 24in track option offers the same footprint as competitors’ 30in tracks, but maintains a narrow transport width below 3.5m, and below 3.29m on smaller 5-walker T-series models. The all-new tracks have 5 pivot points, close to the ground for rapid reaction to terrain changes. Comfort improvement of 20 per cent is claimed, based on measurements taken at the axles and cab floor and the longer tracks have a revised design providing up to 50 per cent longer working life. Increased grip results from the triangular layout with positive drive which means that continued over...

in tough conditions the tracks lift at the front to pull themselves out of soft spots rather than digging in deeper. Maximum speed is 40kph. The tracks can be replaced by wheels if required for field work or resale.

Constant optimisation Demonstrated last year, but offered with limited availability, new Interactive Combine Adjustment (ICA2) is fully available for 2019. This assists users, making it easier for experienced operators to maintain maximum performance and helps less experienced drivers as they improve their technique. After optimising settings such as grain quality, losses and cleanliness of the sample, ICA2 maintains the pre-set levels regardless of changing operating conditions. Cameras on the clean grain elevator and returns system check the sample continually, identifying any problems and providing data to the display where adjustments are made to correct the issue. Active Terrain Adjustment improves performance on slopes, automatically adjusting sieves and

the fan to optimise the sample and reduce losses. Harvest Smart provides automatic feed rate control, adjusting travel speed as crop conditions vary. Priorities can be set including minimal losses, reduced broken grains, reduced foreign material and optimal straw quality and the ICA2 requires the latest 4640 display, fitted standard on the S-series. A new MyOperationsCentre app is available allowing combine settings to be viewed and changed remotely from a mobile phone, tablet or pc. The operator accepts the settings and confirms any adjustments on the in-cab display. The app is available for all S700 combines and additional functions include location history, machine utilisation data, and field and boundary records with data available for export to farm management systems. Remote Display Access (RDA) is also available allowing the supervisor to see a live image of the in-cab screen.

A five-point pivot system allows the track to flex when travelling over obstacles.

series Flex Draper header being added to the price list. Seals reduce small seed losses by up to 45 per cent and new belts with corrugated edges ensure correct alignment. An optional 45cm top auger for tall crops such as rye and oilseed rape is available and the central feed drum has an upper position for improved crop flow. For accurate ground following the knife can flex up to 19cm across

the full width, allowing cutting within 38mm of the ground and improving harvesting performance of laid or short-stemmed crops such as combinable peas. The operator is able to configure the header to flex or remain rigid from the seat. Four Flex headers are available in 30, 35, 40 and 45ft cutting widths, all but the narrowest having a double knife drive and the two largest having split reels. ■

What makes a combine Ideal? Following hot on the heals of test driving Agco’s Ideal combine harvester (see Farmers Guide, September), machinery editor David Williams provides an in-depth report on what the company describes as the first “all-new” combine designed for the European market in 40 years. When all that was required of a combine harvester was to cut, thresh and clean grain, and leave straw in swaths ready for conventional baling, combine design remained relatively unchanged for many years. The 1980s saw a step change in rear end design as effective straw choppers were required to cope with the burning ban and as farm sizes increased and higher outputs were required, larger harvesters with rotary separation were introduced. Straw, previously thought of by many arable farmers as a hindrance, has gained value and in recent years a challenge was created by the need for rapid, thorough separation of grain with minimal straw damage. For its new Ideal models, Agco started with a clean sheet designing the first all-new combines for the

European market in 40 years. “Check for losses and unthreshed heads,” Fendt harvester specialist Ant Risdon invited farmers attending a southern England demonstration. “Then check the swath – grain loss is minimal and almost every straw stem is intact and full length. Then check harvested grain in the trailer for damage and admixture. The Ideal’s design allows high workrates, low losses, best grain quality and unbeatable straw quality, and it’s so efficient that fuel consumption is also incredibly low.” To assess what was needed Agco purchased three main competitor combines and fed them crops from around the world, including damp barley sourced from Scotland sent in containers to the factory. Strengths and weaknesses were identified and Agco engineers pitched their own

test machines against the other brands. The Ideal is available with Massey Ferguson or Fendt branding in the UK and is sold as Challenger in the USA. Any colour can be specified as long as it is black! And the only indication of which brand supplied it are badges on the panels, cab and steering wheel. Asked if alternative colours will be available later, company representatives assured that black will remain the only option. All Ideals, except Paralevel hillside versions, are available with tyres or tracks and standard 800/70R38 tyres provide a transport width under 3.5m. Tracks are available in 26 and 30in widths, the narrower options producing a 3.3m transport width and the wider tracks extend this to 3.5m, and 40kph is standard. Paralevel versions provide full machine levelling to 14 degrees, and a further 15 degrees of sectional cleaning. Targeted demonstration campaigns this year by Fendt and Massey Ferguson dealers resulted in immediate demand for the new models, with verbal orders placed before the price is confirmed. Production has started, but very limited numbers will be available for

next year and, until final allocations are confirmed, dealers remain cautious of accepting many orders.

Designed to perform Three models are available, in 7, 8 and 9 size classes. Combine class relates purely to engine horsepower rather than work-rate and physical size, but Massey Ferguson sales manager for harvesters Joe Ford said he would happily pitch the Ideal 9 against any other harvester currently available. The Ideal 7 has a single 4.85m Helix rotor while the Ideal 8 has two counterrotating rotors, and the Ideal 9 has the same arrangement, with a larger cleaning area, and a larger capacity grain tank and unloading auger as standard, available as an option for 7 and 8 models. The rotor design was tested rigorously during development in all crops. Crop is fed to the rotor by feeder drum, driven from the rotor drive and running at 70 per cent of rotor speed. This ensures crop enters the rotor in an even flow avoiding peaks and dips, and never overfeeds the rotors. The rotor has a large 600mm diameter and the first 1,228mm section is where threshing and up to continued over...

80 per cent of separation occurs. A dedicated separation zone accounts for the next 2,460mm, and is where 20–30 per cent of the total crop is separated. The large diameter helix design provides high centrifugal forces at low rotor speeds and crop remains in it for longer for gentle but thorough separation, protecting the straw and needing significantly less power than alternative systems. Ideal 8 and 9 models with their dual rotor arrangement boast the largest threshing concave area of any combine on the market by 31 per cent, claims Agco, at 1.66m2.

Idealbalance is the new combines’ system for dealing with separated crop, comprising two large oscillating plastic trays under the rotors. The front pan accepts material dropped from the threshing section of the rotor, with channels maintaining an even spread of grain across the full width for even distribution across the sieves, even on slopes up to 15 degrees. The rear plastic pan catches material from the higher separation area of the rotors, also with deep channels directing grain for an even flow across the sieve width. Traditional fans couldn’t produce adequate air for the large cleaning area and extremely long grain pans, so a new cyclone air system was developed, with three lightweight fans creating high volume and low pressure air flows. High volume, low pressure blows material upward from the sieve and a secondary high pressure flow blows material above the sieves and with the system designed to handle any crop and grain size, even the dirtiest UK crops won’t require full blower capacity. Blockages should be rare due to the technology installed, but a hydraulic-driven motor can be engaged from the cab to reverse the entire processing and separation system and, with shaft drive, the

header can also be reversed clearing the blockage wherever it has occurred.

Operator aids IdealHarvest is an innovative app which allows performance monitoring and automatic optimisation. An integral wi-fi network connects an iPad to the combine systems and threshing and separation information derived from 52 acoustic mass sensors (MADs) provides real time visualisation of the crop flow on the screen. Sensors located along the processor and cleaning systems ‘listen’ to the crop passing through. These determine where along the rotor most separation is occurring and, by monitoring the rotor, shaker shoe and grain position, losses can be predicted and prevented before they occur. Moisture levels are measured by conductivity and yield is calculated through an infra-red beam across the grain elevator, and claimed accuracy is within 120kg per full grain tank. A grain quality camera monitors crop delivered to the tank for damage such as cracked or broken grains, as well as chaff and foreign objects and information regarding sample quality is fed back to the screen with the image refreshed every 20 seconds. An easy to use menu system allows the operator to set priorities for performance and the combine will constantly try to achieve the optimum result. A triangle on the screen is labelled in each corner; grain damage, foreign bodies and losses, and the operator can ‘move’ the indicator within the triangle closer to any corner to set a performance priority. Leaving the indicator central allows the machine to provide general optimisation as a compromise between all three. HarvestPlus is independent of IdealHarvest and automatically adjusts The cab is all-new with simple controls, a clear touch-screen and options including iPad managed and monitored threshing and cleaning control.

More than 50 sensors ‘listen’ to determine where separation is occurring through the system allowing work rates to be maximised while maintaining grain and straw quality. Impending system overloads are sensed before they occur preventing grain losses.

the operating speed to maintain the maximum load set by the user. Loss monitoring can be included as a factor, so that speed is reduced if preset limits are exceeded. The system can also be linked to IdealHarvest, so that operating parameters from travel speed to rotor speed and sieve settings are all optimised to meet the chosen performance priority. A wi-fi range of approximately 200m provides an additional benefit as the iPad is not restricted to use in the cab. For less experienced operators a supervisor can check the swath and make adjustments as required, while the driver continues harvesting in the seat. Further possibilities include the ability to automatically set up a second machine to match a lead combine using information transmitted between the Ideal’s main terminals. The Vision cab is brand new and the same as latest Rogator self-propelled sprayers with plenty of space, a panoramic view across the whole header and on the Ideal, controls have a distinctly Fendt ‘feel’ including a VarioTerminal and multi-function joystick. The main switch-gear is similar to Fendt too, with large stubby switches to engage and disengage the main functions. The VarioTerminal touchscreen provides information on settings and machine performance as well as GPS steering and a simpler display continued over...

N Agco Streamer grain tanks and unloading augers provide immense capacity, including the ability to empty the 17,100-litre tank in just 80 seconds. ...from previous page

beneath provides live performance information including forward speed, rotor and sieve losses, fuel and Adblue consumption, tank contents and grain moisture at a glance. A sensible but innovative feature is the sun-blind, which can be attached magnetically to any of the cab pillars to avoid dazzle from any direction. A test drive by Farmers Guide demonstrated the simple control and after just a few bouts all the main controls were familiar and the automation ensured low losses and optimum grain quality. A handy safety feature, carried to the Ideal from previous Massey Ferguson harvesters, is that if the joystick is pulled back rapidly during harvesting the table immediately lifts as the combine reverses. Pushing the joystick forward again resumes forward travel and returns the table to its previous position. Working at full capacity noise levels in the cab are low at just 73dB.

Massive capacity Standard grain tank size on Ideal 7 and 8 models is 12,500 litres, more than almost any other combine currently available while the Ideal 9 has a 17,100-litre tank, available as an option on 7 and 8 machines.

Emptying the tank quickly was a priority for the new combines, minimising time and distance for trailers travelling along-side and the smaller tank is emptied by a 140-litre/ sec auger while the larger tanks have a 210-litres/sec emptying system. Three auger lengths are currently available including an extra-long folding version compatible with 12m CTF systems. The auger can operate in any position as soon as it leaves the cradle and be swung forwards and backwards while unloading to assist the trailer driver. Shutters at the base of the grain tank close when unloading is stopped, reducing restarting loads, and these can also be set to adjust the grain delivery rate, at any time. A single cross auger feeds the unloading auger on the smaller 12,500-litre tank and the larger tank has two. An impressive statistic is that the full 17,100-litre tank can be emptied in just 80 seconds. For straw incorporation the Ideal’s ShortCut chopper has 112 knives in 14 rows, with an adjustable stationary knife which can be adjusted to 5 levels of intensity without tools, and allows the heaviest crops to be chopped to the highest standards for improved incorporation. The chaff spreader can be set from the cab to spread in three different directions; within the straw

for baling, mixed with straw in the chopper or to the side of the machine. Air intake ducts in the chopper side panels create a smooth flow of material from the shaker shoe into the spreader, combining straw and chaff. The new Ideal combines are designed to work with the same 7.7m (25ft) PowerFlow header used on previous Massey Ferguson and Fendt combines, but 9.2, 10.7 and 12.2m versions are all upgraded to SuperFlow specification with a larger 760mm diameter auger for improved handling of heavy crops. For farms where frequent table removal is required between fields, a new AutoDock fixing system allows the operator to drive up to the table, pick it up and connect all the electrics, hydraulics and PTO drive within just five seconds, without leaving the cab.

Efficiency Power is from Agco Power and MAN engines from 451–647hp and a brand new DriveCenter power distribution manifold was developed to ensure efficient power delivery to the combine systems with minimal power losses. Wet clutch drive engagement is smooth and progressive and allows all the belts to remain tensioned, saving wear. The high capacity cooling pack

has an automatic reversing fan, using swivelling blades to alter airflow direction at regular intervals; with a maximum interval of 15 minutes and automatic activation each time road mode is selected or the rotor drive is engaged.

This harvest provided little opportunity for non-stop harvesting as all the UK combines were engaged in structured demonstration programmes but spot rates in heavy wheat for the Ideal 9 were 98–102t/ hr, but averaged 65–75t/hr due to frequent stopping and starting to swap drivers. Average fuel use in these conditions was 65–75 litres/hr.

The demonstration combines had operated for more than 100 hours in very dusty conditions at the time of Farmers Guide’s visit, but no filter cleaning had so far been required.

Lincolnshire Agco dealer Peacock & Binnington ran a very successful demonstration programme for the new combine. “The Ideal offers us a big opportunity and opens up a whole new potential market,” explained harvesting products manager Andrew Whiteley. “The Massey Ferguson Delta was our largest combine previously whereas many larger farms needed higher output so used other brands. However the Ideal 9 offers productivity more than a match for anything else, with threshing and cleaning ability which is not only far superior, but simpler too.” The dealer had two Ideal 9T

possible. Previously, we were rarely asked to quote to supply combines to the biggest farms but this has changed already since the Ideal was announced. The level of interest with requests for demonstrations next year is incredible.” Andrew said Peacock & Binnington has always been passionate about harvesting equipment and the sales and service teams are looking forward to the Ideal being available. “It’s exciting and completely new and operator aids such as IdealHarvest make it very flexible. Experienced operators will enjoy obtaining maximum performance and grain quality while those with less experience will gain confidence and operating skills quickly with the help of the new technology.”

Southern dealer Agco dealer Lister Wilder has depots covering the south and southwest and Fendt brand manager Alistair Reekie was speaking at a demonstration organised for his customers in Oxfordshire. “The Ideal re-introduces Agco in a major way,” he explained. “We have some of the most powerful tractors available in the Fendt brand, but have lacked

high capacity combines until now. “Customer feedback from those who have tried them has been very positive and compliments have been for the striking design and the simple, practical solutions which have been developed. It’s easy to see the benefits and as soon as you get in the seat you can feel them too. We are looking forward to having it fully available and judging from feedback at the demonstration days, there will be considerable interest. What has particularly pleased us is that much of the early interest has been from farmers using our tractors, but currently using other combine brands so we expect many conquest sales. We take great pride in the backup we offer customers and know Agco will ensure full parts availability from the start. The new combines strengthen our proposition and we are pleased with what we have seen in terms of reliability, performance and fuel consumption so far,” he added. “We are delighted with the feedback from those who have tried the Ideal this year,” confirmed Massey Ferguson national sales manager for harvesting products Joe Ford. “It’s very responsive to settings and for experienced operators keen to optimise performance and results, it’s

rewarding to drive, but has features making it ideal for less experienced users too.” Prices haven’t been confirmed, but Joe said the Ideal 9 is likely to be available on-farm at a similar cost to other class 9 machines. The Ideal replaces Massey Ferguson Delta and Centora combines, as well as Fendt equivalents although a limited number of the previous models are available for purchase currently. ■

Root crop specialist celebrates 25 years Silver anniversary celebrations by potato and root crop planting and harvesting specialist Grimme UK were held at its Swineshead, Lincs headquarters in mid-August. David Williams was there. German manufacturer Grimme is recognised as a leading potato machinery manufacturer but in recent years has extended its range to include sugar beet, vegetable and salad harvesters, root crop handling and cleaning products and irrigation equipment. It remains family owned and invests heavily in research and development and, last year launched a huge four-row potato harvester to suit the largest growers. Grimme opened its UK subsidiary at Swineshead, Lincs in 1993, from

where it looks after UK customers with help from 30 dealers. An ambitious open day in mid-August celebrated the achievement, and was attended by the Grimme family, its UK dealers and hundreds of customers who regard the sales and service teams as business partners and friends. The company’s success is not limited to Europe and a new production facility in China was opened in March this year. “There is huge potential there for our

business,” commented Christoph Grimme. “We are constantly looking at our strategy for the future and although we are the world leader for potato machinery, we aim to increase solutions for other crops too. This year was particularly successful for our sugar beet harvesters, and investment continues in technology to keep building this part of our business. Vegetable machinery offers huge opportunities for us from planting to harvesting equipment. We took on Asa-Lift in 2012 for its focus and reputation in specialist machinery and that’s been very successful. Our strategy is to offer a complete solution package from planting to harvesting as we have achieved so successfully for potato growers.”

Intelligent machines

Pictured at the event are (l-r) UK sales manager Andrew Starbuck, Christoph Grimme, UK retail business manager Patrick Graf-Grote, and Franz Grimme.

Christoph said intelligent machines, capable of self-adjustment, is an obvious area for development. “That should be our aim, so operators can rely on their machines to optimise performance leaving them to concentrate on the operation. Machines will get bigger but there are limits so we also need other strategies to achieve higher work rates. Machines must get smarter too and we see the driver as an

essential part of this. Until machines can travel unaided from the yard to the field and dealers’ workshops by themselves operators will be required, which is why all our smart solutions are designed around the driver, to work with him and assist.” Asked why Grimme’s success and reputation continues to grow, Christoph believes the family’s values have helped. “Just because the business still has our family name that doesn’t guarantee it will perform well and provide great customer service,” he said. “It has grown, but we still have to run the company as a family business ensuring customers and staff are looked after just as when the company was smaller. We talk to everyone to find out their views including our teams and customers. My father’s office door is always open and we try hard to make sure even the most junior staff feel we are approachable.” Grimme UK marketing manager Adam Johnson agrees. “Communication is a company strength and members of our team feel involved here and with the German headquarters. We know customers rely on us to provide a good service and that their working environment is different to any other industry. We listen to them and understand their needs. We not only have a range of great products, but a great team to support them too.” continued over...

Superb year for sales UK sales manager Andrew Starbuck said strong sales of all products have been achieved this year. “Since selling our first self-propelled sugar beet harvesters in 2004 our reputation in this market has grown and interest increases each year from users of other brands. Four new self-propelled harvesters have been supplied this year along with several used machines. “It’s been a good year for potato harvesters too, and we have sold approximately 15 self-propelled models. Turnover generally is up and we have exceeded our forecast of 4 per cent year-on-year growth. Potato prices have fluctuated wildly in recent years but we have adapted our business to allow for

that and our sales strategy has proved successful.” Regarding de-stoners, Andrew said year sales to date have already exceeded total sales for any of the past 5, with more than 50 supplied to UK farms. Planter sales remain fairly constant but he said the trend is for higher capacity machines and three, four-row belt planters have been supplied to farms in Norfolk, Lincs and Cambs. Irrigation products were added to the range seven years ago, but weren’t on show at the open day as every available machine had been sold due to the sustained drought in the UK and across Europe. Asa-Lift, Grimme’s vegetable machinery manufacturing division had also enjoyed a very successful year, breaking all previous records.

Farmer John White of Turves Farms, based at Whittlesey, Cambs (right) produces potatoes mainly for bagging and chipping and has dealt with Grimme UK for almost 20 years. “Grimme makes the best planters and harvesters,” he said. “I tried others but always come back to what I feel are the best and currently operate a Varitron 220 harvester and a four-row trailed belt planter. “It’s not just the product though; it’s the parts supply too and the service team is certainly up there with the best. We deal with the Grimme Retail Group and the current harvester is our third from the company. Service and repairs prices are competitive. We moved to Grimme planters only three years ago, just because we were so impressed with the harvester we reasoned other products would be good too. “When we need anything adapted the Swineshead design team is excellent and when our grader is due for updating I’m sure its replacement will be from Grimme. The company’s success is due to the excellent staff and I would recommend the team to anyone.” John is pictured with Barry Burrell, long serving member of Grimme’s sales separtment, now working part-time for the company.

Andrew Starbuck is pictured (left) with Paul Kirkland and a Varitron harvester. Paul is the manager responsible for potatoes and irrigation at Thoresby Farming, near Sherwood Forest, Nottinghamshire. The farm operates a Varitron 220 which has worked 3 seasons and Paul commented that, until 12 years ago, the farm had operated no Grimme equipment. “Now our fleet includes a Grimme ridger, our first Grimme destoner, a second belt planter and a trailed harvester for carrots,” he said. “We used a trailed potato harvester previously, but wanted to speed up lifting, and grade on the machine. The Varitron has a 2t bunker allowing us to keep trailers clear of wet holes and avoid ground damage. The tracked harvester leaves the ground level and improves drilling conditions for following crops and although most of the potatoes are grown on our own land, we also rent some and owners appreciate the lack of damage. Farmed area is approximately 3,450ha and 160ha of potatoes are grown, mainly for ware and sold to major packers. Most of the land at Thoresby Farming is very sandy, with water supplied through a fleet of 25 irrigators. Asked why the farm had moved to Grimme, Paul explained a combination of factors influenced the decision. “Reliability and build quality and reduced potato damage have been proven to be significant advantages. We experienced constant damage with our previous machine and bruising has been reduced from approximately 20 per cent to under 2 per cent,” he said. “I operated Grimme products in a previous role and knew if they are set up correctly then damage is negligible. Back up is good from our local dealer, B&B Tractors. We are looked after well but if we need parts urgently which aren’t in stock, it’s a relatively short trip to Swineshead.”

More over page... Sales manager Andrew Starbuck is pictured with a limited edition GT trailed harvester commemorating Grimme UK’s first 25 years. “We have an 80 per cent market share for trailed and self-propelled potato harvesters,” he explained. “They enjoy great customer loyalty so it is fitting that the most popular model was chosen for the commemorative edition. Almost all are sold now, although several dealers are running them as demonstrators this year.” Andrew said sales of new sugar beet harvesters are increasing and four have been sold this season along with several second-hand examples.

...More on previous page Also on show at the event was this 1980s Deluxe de-stoner, one of the first produced by Grimme which had been bought back from a customer and restored.

Farmer and contractor JW Parker & Sons is based at Wellow, Notts and operates a Maxtron beet harvester. Beet harvesting is on the farm’s own land, lifting the contracted 3,600t crop and for farmers within a 20-mile radius of the farm’s base. “There isn’t another machine like the Maxtron,” said Graham Parker, who is seen here alongside Andrew Starbuck. “It’s gentle on the ground and well balanced spreading its weight evenly over a large area, whereas other machines seem to concentrate a disproportionate amount of weight on the front axle. It lifts and cleans beet gently with little bruising and is highly manoeuvrable. The Oppel wheels never fail to impress and we haven’t had a situation where we haven’t loved them. They lift reliably even when running very shallow which has been an advantage on several occasions including lifting beet grown on shallow soil over limestone and fodder beet where soil contamination had to be minimised. “Back up is great too,” he added. “Grimme contacted me to say an ideal used machine had come into stock and we looked at it and were impressed with its condition. It’s proved very reliable and efficient.”

Attending the celebrations were members of main dealer Ben Burgess’ team.

Contract machinery operator Chris Morley works for farmers and contractors in the York and Scarborough areas. His first experience operating Grimme machinery was in 1997 and since then work carried out using Grimme and other brands includes planting, lifting and transport, mainly for potato growers. Recent harvester operation was using a Varitron 270 and he also uses a GT170 harvester. During spring he used a CW Combi Web de-stoner and previously a GB430 belt planter, one of two planters operated by the farm including a 215 model. Another recent task was ridging up using a set of Grimme ridgers, so he has considerable experience of the brand and back-up. “I love Grimme machinery,” he said. “It’s well made, reliable and easy to use. One of the farms I work for is replacing two 32B belt planters with a larger GB215 model and I am likely to be operating that in the spring. When I have had any issues the Grimme team responded quickly. Most of the time I deal with Grimme York and Jack Brown is my main contact, but all the team are very good. They seem to share information particularly well so if any of them has experienced a situation previously the solution is known to all of them. Everything breaks eventually but it’s how quickly it’s working again that matters. “I’ve driven almost every brand at some time but Grimme has the edge for ease of use and flexibility. Many harvester settings can be altered from the seat and, on variable land, being able to alter settings on the move helps prevent crop damage. I love CleanControl which allows 15 sets of settings to be programmed and stored for recall. It’s a brilliant feature,” he said. Chris is pictured with his son Alex at the event.

Keeping control of the costs in establishing cover crops While the introduction of cover crops has been a further boost to soil health at Wistaston Farm in Herefordshire, farm manager Steve Klenk (right) is also ensuring seed and establishment costs are kept to a minimum. Wistaston Farm, at Kings Pyon in Herefordshire, is an in-hand farm of Garnstone Estate. Here, Steve Klenk has been overseeing an arable system of min-tilling and/or direct drilling for the past 15 years or so. Over this time, the structure and fertility of the silty clays on the farm have been gradually improving. Steve explains: “It’s been a combination of farming practices: chopping straw, shallow cultivations and direct drilling, and adding cattle muck and digestate. We are now using less lime, and less P and K. “We are also in two Countryside Stewardship Schemes and are applying to join a mid-tier scheme.” This autumn’s combinable crops are winter wheat (360ha); oilseed rape (140ha), herbage seeds (100ha); canary seed (40ha) and soya beans (14ha). In addition, 140ha of cover crops have been sown as part of the programme of enhancing soil structure and health.

Cover crop mixtures To save money on seed, Steve formulates his own ‘home-made’ cover crop mixture. This includes the grain from 1.5ha of spring oats grown on the farm, together with any barn sweepings – so this autumn’s cover crops also feature peas, wheat and canary seed. Then, to satisfy the conditions of the EFA regulations, phacelia is bought-in as a straight. So are buckwheat, crimson clover, berseem clover, and tillage radish – adding biodiversity to the mixture. Steve looks for the best prices from several suppliers. The seeds are mixed together in a shed using the bucket on a loader. It is not a precise operation, but Steve

considers it to be sufficient for the purpose. After accounting for royalties on the farm-saved seed, this season’s homemade seed mixture cost £20/ha, roughly half the cost of similar off-the-shelf mixtures.

Establishment Keeping costs low in the establishment of these cover crops is also a priority. A disc cultivator is used over cereal stubble to incorporate the straw and create a tilth (normally, chopped straw is left in situ but this year most has been baled for a nearby suckler enterprise). Then seed is sown via a fertiliser spreader, and the ground rolled afterwards. Typically, this work is carried out as a filler on wet days during the harvest period. Steve adds: “Since we are using a fertiliser spinner on a crudelymixed mixture with many different sizes and shapes of seed, we do get variation in species across the field. But I’m not concerned about that. We’re not harvesting it as a crop.” Last year, the cultivator needed replacing and Steve and his staff tried out several different makes. In the end a 5.25m trailed He-Va Disc Roller Contour was chosen. It consists of two staggered rows of Sabre discs followed by a rear roller comprising of pressed steel 600mm V profile rings. The He-Va Sabre discs are less concave than traditional discs and this allows all the soil to be moved when working shallow. In wet conditions, this design also prevents the back of the discs smearing and creating a disc pan. Depending on the type of work required, their working depth and angle to the ground is adjusted: for shallow cultivations, discs are set perpendicular to the soil surface. This makes them push the soil horizontally, breaking it up and ensuring the whole surface is moved. For the incorporation of crop residues, the disc angle and depth are increased. This more aggressive angle pulls the discs into the ground and inverts more soil, incorporating crop residues to a depth of up to 5in. On the Disc Roller Contour, the two hydraulic folding sections are pivoted so they can move up and Steve’s low cost cover crop includes oat grains from the farm’s spring crop, barn sweepings and bought-in straights.

Cover crops are sown into cereal stubble which has been cultivated using the He-Va Disc Roller Contour.

down according to the contours of the ground, helping ensure even cultivation in rolling fields. Steve adds: “We are using the Disc Roller as the primary cultivator on fresh stubble. The discs move all the ground and loosen the soil. We only need to go down 1.5in as we are not trying to alleviate compaction – going deeper is just using more diesel. The depth control on the machine is very good. The roller does a good job of consolidation and leaves a level finish.”

we’ll run through the remainder of the crop in March/April with a subsoiler and then follow with the He-Va disc roller to create a seedbed, which will be rolled before drilling. “Having a crop in place through the winter stops the soil slumping and prevents erosion. The cover crop is also able to soak up some of the nutrients left over from the previous crop, and these get recycled into the next one.” ■

Maize The cover crops will be incorporated into the soil in advance of maize crops being sown. Garnstone Farms has a share in an AD plant which supplies both heat and electricity to a factory. Next year, 180ha of maize will need to be sown, to supply sufficient feedstock for it. Steve explains: “Some of the plants in the cover crop will have died in frosts over the winter. But

Having a crop in place through the winter stops the soil slumping and prevents erosion.

Monte Carlo or bust? Claas colleagues rally for a good cause

Four colleagues and friends of a popular dealer sales manager who passed away suddenly last year undertook a challenge in his memory, travelling from Suffolk to Monaco and back in an ageing taxi. David Williams saw them off. Patrick Wells joined Claas main dealer Manns in 1971 as an apprentice. Aged 16 he started his career in sales but progressed through various roles at Claas UK and the dealer until he became Manns sales manager in 2011, the post he held at the time of his death last year. With 47 years’ service he was one of the longest standing members of the Claas UK and Mann’s teams and shared great friendships with many customers. “Patrick was honest and rather than sell us something he wanted to get rid of he made sure we got what we needed at the best price available, and dealing with him was a pleasure,” commented arable farmer Robert Lacey who trades as GC Lacey & Son, based at Fulbourn, Cambs. “He didn’t just sell the products either. If we had a problem and there was any delay getting an engineer to us, Patrick would pull on his overalls, grab his tools and start looking for the fault. If it was something electronic he would get on the phone to one of the engineers to ask their advice to try and get us going again. My father dealt with him for 30 years or so before I took over and he was just a really good bloke. As long as we were happy he was happy.”

Worthy challenge Patrick died from a major heart attack on 31st August 2017, leaving his wife Karen, daughters Liona and Chloe, and son Toby, and their families including his grandchildren. His colleagues at Claas and Manns were keen to achieve something positive in his memory and decided to raise funds for the British Heart Foundation. Patrick

was a keen motorsport enthusiast and four company directors set an ambitious target to raise £10,000 in sponsorship, by attempting to drive a taxi from Claas’ and Manns’ Saxham headquarters to Monaco and back, in under 48 hours, the challenge inspired by the 1969 film Monte Carlo or Bust which features a car rally across Europe. A Justgiving page was set up and, as well as individual sponsors, corporate sponsorship was invited from customers and the companies’ suppliers and dealers and included the opportunity to have the sponsor’s name displayed on the vehicle. Taking part were Claas UK CEO Trevor Tyrrell, Claas UK retail director Richard Vaughan, property director Paul Butcher and chief financial officer Thomas Schering who is based at Claas Germany and was due to join the challenge on the way. “Patrick was a much loved and respected colleague, and he had a great sense of humour,” said Trevor. “I am sure he would have approved of our fundraising challenge and, in fact, I’m certain he would have wanted to attempt it with us.” The route included 6 capital cities and 8 countries on the 2,000 mile drive and, rather than select a modern, comfortable vehicle, the four drivers opted for a 16-year old black cab with more than 350,000 miles already on the clock, and no air conditioning. “I think the biggest challenge facing all of us will be staying awake while driving through the night,” pointed out Richard. “We will all have worked normal hours until leaving in the taxi, and it’s not the most comfortable vehicle and opportunities

Luckily for the team, the September issue of Farmers Guide had arrived that day ensuring boredom for the passengers wouldn’t be an issue. (l-r) Trevor Tyrrell, Paul Butcher, Richard Vaughan, Karen Wells and Deputy Mayor of St Edmundsbury Patrick Chung.

for rest will be limited.” The taxi and three drivers left Saxham at 7.05pm on Thursday 30th August, seen off by representatives of Claas UK and Manns along with members of Patrick’s family and a large number of customers (see picture, top). The team arrived in France 4.5 hours later via the Eurotunnel and drove down through central France to Monaco, arriving tired but elated after 19 hours driving time and having travelled almost 1,000 miles.

Return leg After a night’s rest in Monaco, the team left early on Saturday morning to start the longer journey home, and took turns driving through France, Italy, Switzerland, Germany, Luxembourg, Belgium and back into France, emerging on the UK side of the Eurotunnel at 5.15 on Sunday morning, and disembarking from the taxi at 7.10am back at the Claas UK headquarters. Total driving time was 45 hours, 3 ahead of the target and the taxi had covered 2,021 miles. Sponsorship through the Justgiving page and money donated direct to

team members during the journey exceeded £30,000 at the time of Farmers Guide going to press; but the Justgiving page (see below) remains open for further donations in memory of Patrick, and for this worthy cause. For those keen to acquire an ageing taxi which didn’t miss a beat during its European journey, Little Nellie will be auctioned later this year with proceeds added to the sponsorship total.

Optimum conditions for drainage gains You might be forgiven for thinking that the UK’s driest summer on record would mean that land drainage is the last thing on anyone’s mind, but according to Lincolnshire drainage firm Shelton, the aftermath of a dry summer following this year’s wet spring (remember the ‘Beast from the East?’) actually prove to be the very best conditions for installing a drainage scheme to gain maximum benefit. According to Shelton director Mick Claxton, now is the perfect time to carry out drainage work: “The fissures which have been created by the differing weather conditions of

this year will actually increase the efficiency of the drainage system; the cracks in the subsoil created by a hot summer aid the passage of water, therefore improving the infiltration rate of excess water to the drainage system. “Well drained land warms up quicker in the spring, so not only are the fields able to be cultivated and drilled earlier, seed will germinate quicker. “Our CT150 Agri Chain trencher can trench directly into standing water if required, but the ideal situation for installing drainage is in the drier months.

Dealership merger

QUALITY. RELIABILITY. TRUST.

The family owners of two John Deere dealerships have signed an agreement to merge their two businesses. The agreement will take effect on January 1, 2019 and until that time the two dealers – New Forest Farm Machinery and R Hunt – will continue to trade as they do today. Tim Hunt will become managing director of the new business which will be called Hunt Forest Group. Ed Smales, the current dealer principal of New Forest Farm Machinery, will take a director’s role. Hunt Forest Group will continue to operate from the same outlets across southern England, with the same staff. R Hunt currently has four outlets covering Wiltshire, Hampshire, Berkshire, Surrey and the Isle of Wight. It has been a John Deere dealer since 1971 and employs 71 staff. New Forest Farm Machinery employs 43 people and trades from two outlets, one in Hampshire and one at recently opened turf premises in Somerset. It has been a John Deere agricultural dealer since 1979. The merger will provide the new business with more resources for customers and staff, more inventory and more product support capability, says John Deere’s division sales manager Joedy Ibbotson. ■

Multi-purpose remote control mini tractor A remote controlled mini tracked tractor with a built-in logging winch has been introduced by Spaldings. It follows the company’s appointment as national dealer in the UK and Ireland for Pfanzelt forestry and estate management machinery. The Pfanzelt Moritz Fr50 rubber tracked vehicle is designed to work in locations that are difficult to access, are too delicate for fullsize machines or where there are dangers for an on-board operator. The vehicle weighs 1,400kg, is 2.2m long and stands just 1.2m tall. It is powered by a 35hp diesel engine and has hydrostatic drive. “In standard form, the Moritz carries a two-speed cable winch with a heavy-duty logging plate,” explains Paul Denton. “But the winch can be replaced by a 1.2m flail mower on the Cat I linkage to extend the machine’s workload.” The relatively low weight and 1.1m overall width means the Moritz Fr50 can be transported by trailer behind a 4x4, pick-up or van to work sites such as steep woodland or grass embankments

The Pfanzelt Moritz remote control mini tractor can operate with a 110m steel cable winch or a 1.2m flail mower.

where the track spacing can be widened hydraulically by up to 400mm for maximum stability. “We envisage a contractor using the Moritz for woodland and embankment vegetation control or

to provide tension for controlled direction felling where trees have to be cut down in a confined location,” says Paul. “Skidding felled trees from woodland and dealing with light brash and vegetation are

also within its scope.” Remote control of all functions means these tasks can be carried out with maximum safety for the operator. The Moritz Fr50 base vehicle is priced at £44,500. ■

The first set of Michelin AxioBib IF 600/70R30 and IF 800/70R38 tyres were fitted as original equipment on a John Deere 8360R tractor purchased as new in 2013. They returned more than 3,000 hours of work over 5 years on Kensham Farms’ high horsepower heavy cultivations tractor, pulling a variety of equipment including a 4m Sumo cultivator, a 6m Horsch Joker cultivator and 8m Horsch Pronto seed drill and a 7f on land fully-

Moisture readings for round bales Efficient and cost-effective moisture readings are promised by the manufacturer of the H20 Precision Sensor. According to Profitable Farming Company (PFC) its twin disc moisture sensor technology reads the moisture across the width of the bale via moisture sensing discs in the bale chamber. The sensor will read crop moisture from 6–60 per cent, for customers that make high moisture bales as well as dry bales. The moisture sensor has two discs in the bale chamber that read across the width of the bale, taking five readings of resistance per second, giving the operator complete visibility of crop conditions. The moisture sensor uses the operator’s smart phone or tablet as the monitor. The H2O control is mounted in the cab and connects wirelessly via Bluetooth to the device via the free H2O app from Harvest Tec. A new addition is an optional dye marker accessory which can be added to the H2O Moisture Sensor and will mark every bale that is above a set moisture alarm point with a red, food-grade colour. The bale is marked as it leaves the chamber, allowing the operator to easily identify those bales that are above their preferred moisture threshold. The food-grade colour mixes with water and applies up to 60 bales per 5.5 litre tank fill.

The new Varimaster L from Kuhn is available in 4, 5 or 6f versions, all of which enable on-land ploughing.

Enabling on-land ploughing is the aim of Kuhn’s new Varimaster L series. Available in 4, 5 or 6f versions, the new range is designed for use with 200–300hp tractors and is compatible with tracked tractors or those equipped with wide flotation tyres. The Varimaster L’s on-land design reduces the effects of drift caused by a change in offset or when working in-furrow: the plough always remains perfectly aligned with the direction of travel, not only ensuring greater ploughing accuracy, but also reducing fuel consumption and wear and tear. The new ploughs feature manually adjustable skimmers which enable easy, tool-free set-up and adjustment of each individual skimmer to ensure total furrow closure and improved residue burial. Each skimmer is sheath mounted to reduce the risk of the skimmer being twisted out of alignment and can be adjusted in three dimensions for complete control. A shear-bolt

safety system – which breaks at a force of 1,800kg – protects each skimmer leg in the event of the skimmer coming into contact with an immovable object. Each of the four models within the range is equipped as standard with hydraulic front furrow adjustment and can be specified with hydraulic depth adjustment. Each model also features Kukn’s NSH (Non-Stop Hydraulic) safety system as standard: this auto-reset protection system can be upgraded with the addition of Kuhn’s Varibar and Maxibar systems which enable share point release pressure to be adjusted on-the-go. A range of skimmer and deflector options enables users to customise their plough according to soil type and cropping conditions. Forged and heat treated points and bodies ensure exceptional wear resistance and longevity, with tungsten carbide tipped points and shares also available to further extend service life and reduce the amount of maintenance required. ■

Additional dealer for central Service and parts centre for the west of the country and southern England An additional dealer, Farol, has been appointed to represent Kuhn Farm Machinery’s agricultural and amenity equipment for central and southern England, the company has announced The appointment, which is effective immediately, will see all six of Farol’s depots become official stockists and service support dealers of Kuhn’s full range of agricultural and amenity ranges. Farol joins a network of existing Kuhn franchisees in the region, all of which remain in place as Kuhn dealers, extending the machinery manufacturer’s coverage in the Midlands and southern England. “We are pleased to welcome Farol as an official Kuhn franchisee,” explains Kuhn UK managing director Sian Pritchard. “The company’s expertise and professional approach to both sales and aftersales support in the farming and ground-care sectors perfectly complements and strengthens our existing network of approved dealers throughout the Midlands and southern England.

Kuhn specialises in the design and manufacture of tractor-drawn agricultural equipment.

“The appointment demonstrates our commitment to both sectors within the region and we look forward to a long and successful partnership with the staff at all six depots.” Established as a family business in 1976, and still 100 per cent family-owned, Farol employs 165 staff across its sales, service, parts, specialist haulage, tyre and administrative departments. The company’s six depots specialise in the sale and support of agricultural, professional ground-care, garden and plant machinery.

Grain Handling, Drying & Storage

More harvest windows from green investment Deciding when to harvest cereal crops for the optimum crop moisture content is a gamble every year for most UK farmers, but one Scottish Borders farm has stacked the odds in its favour with a new dryer, and running costs subsidised by low-cost and free fuel. David Williams visited the farm. Based on the east coast at Eyemouth, Berwickshire, Greenshields Agri Ltd farms approximately 2,000ha, of which 1,600ha is arable cropping and the remainder is woods and grassland with some let out for livestock. The land is a mix of owned and contract farmed, all within 15 miles of the coast. Winter wheat is the main crop – of which 400ha is Group 3 milling variety Barrel this season. Other crops in the rotation usually include winter and spring barley, oilseed rape, spring oats and spring beans, but this year spring beans weren’t grown due to lack of suitable planting conditions, and spring wheat was a late replacement. Barley is mainly for malting, for Scotch whisky and beer, and feed varieties are grown for cattle. “We have an arrangement with a livestock farmer on the west coast and provide ‘bed & breakfast’ for up to 1,000 fattening calves,” explained farm manager Gary Sands. “These are beef calves from dairy cows. Using high value semen, good quality cattle are produced rather than Holstein bull calves which are of lower value to the beef industry. It costs a lot to ship straw bales across the country to the west, so the bull calves are transported here to take advantage of our grassland, they are fed our barley and we use the manure on our fields. The arrangement benefits both farms.”

Coping with high moisture In early September the last of the spring barley and wheat was being harvested by the farm’s fleet of three combines. “We harvest at up to 25 per

cent moisture at times, but average is approximately 19–20 per cent,” explained Gary. “This year is the first in 20 that we have been able to put some of the crop into store without drying.” Two years ago the farm invested in a Spanner Recombined heat and power 200kW generating plant, the only one of its size in the UK. Woodchip is fed into gas generators, heated to 600ºC to melt and produce gas, then the gas is cleaned, cooled to 80ºC and used to power four adapted American V8 truck engines which each drive separate generators. Enough electrical power for 300 homes is fed to the grid and cooling water for the gas plant and engines is pumped through a heat exchanger to provide warm air for a drying floor. Crops are placed on two drying floors for 24 hours, then fully dried in a traditional dryer before storage, and the same floors are also used to dry the woodchip ready for use. “This is the second year we have had the drying floor and it made a lot of difference,” explained Gary. “We buy timber in and it’s almost all renewable Sitka Spruce. Each engine consumes 1t/day, and it’s ideal for the gas plant and environmentally friendly as most of the tree is used for timber, and waste by-product converted to woodchip, and it’s almost all from a local estate just a few miles away.” The farm’s dryer was at a site away from the main yard so Gary was keen to invest in better and more convenient storage. He commissioned crop storage and buildings specialist John Thorburn & Sons, based at Duns, Berwickshire to design a new store.

“Our wood-fuelled electricity generators work well and we could see potential for using renewable fuels within our new drying system too,” he explained. “We are keen to be environmentally friendly and believe that green credentials will become more important to those buying our produce in future, potentially improving profitability through greater price premiums.” With good access to biomass for fuel, including wood available free when shelter belts are renewed on the estate, a biomass boiler appeared to make sense but Gary was keen to extend potential benefit beyond just another drying floor, partly because the warm air floor heats the crop unevenly achieving higher temperatures close to the floor and cooling unevenly when drying has finished. “When we dry on a warm day and the dryer draws in warm ambient air the whole drying process is achieved more quickly and using less fuel than when the ambient air temperature is lower,” he explained. “I believed that by using air heated first by the biomass boiler we could achieve significant time and cost savings.”

Low-cost drying A recirculating batch dryer was chosen for its ability to accurately dry and cool grain to the required standard, while compensating for variable air temperature from the heat exchanger. Its ability to clean and condition the crop during the drying process was also an advantage. Heat produced in the boiler is regulated by air supplied by a fan, but it fluctuates at the beginning and end of each fuel cycle. A means of regulating the temperature and maintaining continuous heat delivery, even for a period after the fuel supply was exhausted, was needed. Gary’s idea was to heat and store 30,000 litres of water, circulating this

Air is pre-heated to 850C by passing through a heat exchanger before entering the dryer, saving time and fuel.

The installation allows grain from the intake pit to by-pass the dryer and be sent straight to the store on rare occasions when moisture content is low enough.

through a heat exchanger so warm air could be extracted for the dryer. John Thorburn designed the new 6,000t grain store on a greenfield site, backing on to some disused buildings, previously used as a livestock feed store. Construction started early in 2018 centred around an Opico Magna 4810QF 48t automatic batch dryer positioned between the 2 buildings. The old feed store was converted to house a Dragon Biomass boiler and water tanks at one end, and a drying floor at the other and work on the adjacent new grain store was completed in May, with a 30x54m storage floor and 4m grain walls. Flat conveyors allow crop to be delivered exactly where needed and an underfloor ventilation system from Martin Lishman and the company’s Barn Owl monitoring system optimise crop storage. continued over...

Grain Handling, Drying & Storage

p The Dragon biomass boiler heats 30,000 litres of water, which means heat is retained for many hours after the boiler ceases operation. u An ejector bucket supplies enough cordwood to the burner for six hours’ heating.

“We specialise in farm building construction and installation of crop handling and storage systems,” explained John. “Most of our work is from Newcastle in the south up to Dundee and this is the third large store we have installed this year, and the second with an Opico batch dryer. Customers like Opico dryers for their reliability and ease of use. We have sold them for many years; they perform well, and last well too. Dryers in this area are worked hard due to the typical high moisture content at harvest but we look after several installed in the 1980s which remain reliable and efficient. “An advantage of Opico batch dryers is the ease of installation. A large dryer like the unit purchased by Greenshields Agri can be installed and commissioned within about three days, and smaller units are often working within just one day. They hold their value too, which is another

Farm manager Gary Sands says the Opico Magna batch dryer was recommended by installer John Thorburn and is achieving great drying performance and a wellconditioned grain sample.

attraction of batch dryers generally. When they are removed they still have a value whereas fixed dryers tend to be scrapped.” Gary’s dryer is a standard dieselfuelled model, with high and low burners and automatic operation. Grain is tipped into a 120t/hr intake pit and automatically delivered to the dryer through Perry elevators and conveyors. The dryer’s central 160t/hr auger fills the chamber and circulates and cleans the crop during drying by warm air. When drying is complete the cooling process starts automatically, with cooler ambient air blown through the crop, until the temperature has reduced sufficiently and the dry grain is discharged to the store.

Cheaper and faster In a conventional installation the dryer takes in large volumes of cool, ambient air which is then heated by the diesel burner and blown through the crop, but the difference with Gary’s dryer is that air is preheated by passing it through a heat exchanger, containing hot water from the biomass boiler. “We pre-heat the air to 85ºC which means we rely less on the dryer’s diesel burner. This means that for most of the time only the smaller jet is needed to raise the air temperature to 120ºC or so saving fuel, but an advantage of this installation is that because the dryer remains standard, the larger jet can be fired up if the system decides it is needed. However, the huge hot water tanks ensure that even if the biomass boiler runs out of fuel during the night, the water remains hot for many hours so we continue to benefit from the fuel savings available.” When the dryer switches to cooling cycle and during filling and emptying, cool ambient air is required so automatic diverter flaps have been installed to direct warm air from the heat exchanger to a new drying floor, along-side the Dragon boiler. “Tipping

grain onto the drying floor allows drying to start almost free of charge before the crop enters the dryer,” said Gary. “Because it’s heated slightly and partially dried it shortens the time needed in the dryer so throughput is improved. The Dragon boiler can burn almost anything so, as well as cordwood, we will use sawdust extracted from the wood chipping process for the power plant which is otherwise wasted, and there is potential to burn oilseed rape straw bales too.” Average boiler fuel consumption so far this harvest has been approximately 1t of wood every 6 hours, fed into the burning chamber using a telehandler mounted ejector bucket. The burning process is controlled automatically by an electric fan and when the set temperature can’t be achieved due to a lack of fuel, text messages are sent to farm staff warning them that more

wood is required. Gary is delighted with the new drying and storage facility and estimates fuel cost savings of approximately 40 per cent compared to drying using just diesel-generated heat. “It’s performing well, and it gives us added flexibility to harvest when otherwise the drying costs would be uneconomic,” he said. “We believe there is potential for contract drying for other farms in the area too. The Opico dryer treats the crop gently, dries it within the defined temperature limits and its cascading action conditions and cleans the grain creating a very attractive sample. “Heat from the boiler could also be used for the farmhouse, the farm workshop and other properties and because all the heat produced is from waste and renewable fuels, we can reduce costs and be environmentally friendly.” ■

Grain Handling, Drying & Storage

Customised grain dryers for farm businesses of all sizes BDC Systems offers ongoing technical support for farmers who choose the Svegma continuous flow grain dryer.

The manufacturer of the Svegma continuous flow grain dryer has reported a successful season with many installations across the UK and Ireland. The key strength of the Svegma dryer is its longevity, quality manufacturing and excellent after sales service, says BDC. Apart from upgraded fans, burners and 60359

control panel the basic dryer hasn’t changed significantly over the years. This means that spare parts are still available for dryers over 30 years old, it adds. With just a little care and an annual maintenance regime there are BDC Svegma dryers still going strong after more than 25 years. And as farm sizes grow it may also be possible to extend an existing dryer to increase its capacity. The BDC Svegma dryer is available in widths of 2-8m and heights up to 20m and is capable of drying up to 125t of grain per hour. The modular and flexible design allows high levels of customisation making the Svegma dryer suitable for farmers, farming co-operatives and commercial users of all sizes.

A smooth and clean internal grain column with lateral fixings prevents cross contamination between crops and makes it suitable for malting barley seed and other free flowing products. Although installation and maintenance is down to the local dealer, technical support is always available to overcome any issues

which the customer or dealer requires assistance with. As well as problem solving the technical team works closely with the manufacturer on product enhancements and much of the technology in the dryer is down to BDC’s input. Svegma dryers are available through BDC Systems and its network of approved dealers and installers. ■

Grain Handling, Drying & Storage

Grain store investment delivered for harvest Bennett & Co completed a major grain storage investment by Buckminster Farms Ltd, near Grantham for harvest 2018. Following a complete review of the business’ grain storage facilities and requirements, Perry of Oakley and Bennett & Co were asked to provide a solution. The design required two storage areas of 2,500t each with sufficient intake and drying capacity. Perry supplied the 60tph continuous flow

dryer from its new Savannah range, complete with the company’s light grain and chaff recovery system, inverter speed controlled main fans and touch screen control. Perry also supplied 120tph bulk handling equipment including intake trench conveyors, aspirator cleaners, elevators, a variety of chain and flight conveyors and a belt conveyor to load the storage areas. The building was cut into a slope, which reduces its impact on the

landscape and also allows for a large intake pit within a 350t bunker area of the building with two trench intake conveyors. Grain in the two storage areas is stored to 6m at the wall side, peaking to 10m under the belt conveyor. The below floor cooling ducts are arranged so as the building is loaded/unloaded, crop can still be ventilated.

The dryer, plant and grain cooling fans can all be monitored and controlled remotely thanks to the estate’s own super-fast broadband network with a mast on top of the new building, concludes Bennett & Co. ■

Making savings with remote grain monitoring Quanturi is an expert when it comes to providing advanced technologies and data services to the farming and forestry industries, says the company. The business offers wireless grain temperature monitoring probes that can be customised up to 250cm, making them a good fit for different sized silos and bulk storage facilities. The company points out that their use means a reduction in travelling from site to site and walking from bin to bin to monitor grain condition. With Quanturi’s online platform

the real-time temperature status of grain can be monitored anywhere, around the clock, via a PC, tablet or smartphone. If the temperature is not right, the system will alert operators via SMS so that immediate action can be taken.

Easily accessed

of manually monitoring and documenting grain temperature history. The simplified purchase and set up processes mean installation is quick and efficient and able to protect farmer’s profits 24/7, adds the company.

In addition, through the automated Quanturi system temperature records can be easily accessed to ensure compliance with assurance schemes and regulations without the hassle

Quanturi says that its effective and remote grain temperature monitoring system won’t break the bank.

Grain Handling, Drying & Storage

Cooling down after the hot summer Mark Weatherhead specialises in grain handling and fixed equipment requirements.

The extremely hot summer resulted in grain being harvested at not only low moisture content but also being deposited into grain stores at high temperatures, says Royston-based agricultural machinery dealership and grain store specialist Mark Weatherhead. In recent years high grain temperatures have meant, in some cases, that grain retaining walls have been pushed out or cracked, points out the company.

It is important, therefore, that consideration is given to grain being either conditioned or cooled. Pedestals can be used and are a popular method, however under floor laterals spaced at 1 or 1.5m apart are increasingly being implemented to cool grain. This method requires a fan to match the size of the building, and laterals will be installed across the floor so that, as grain is tipped straight from the harvest field, they can be progressively opened up as the building is filled, while also allowing grain to be stored at a considerable depth.

Accuracy and reliability at harvest time North Yorkshire based Farm-Tec describes its Dickey-John Grain Analysis Computer (GAC) 2500-UGMA as the ‘next generation’ of moisture testers. The GAC is a bench top analyser. Fully supported by the company’s service centre, the instruments were launched in 2013. Farm-Tec continually monitors the performance of the national calibrations installed in the instruments, using its in-house laboratory at the gold standard manufacturer approved service centre, says the company. It also participates as a reference laboratory in industry leading proficiency testing schemes; the results from the GAC 2500 are excellent year after year, it adds. The 149 MHz UGMA – Universal Grain Moisture Algorithm – technique is not vulnerable to analysis errors caused by difficult

Grain Handling, Drying & Storage

Small changes to boost dryer range Improvements to Savannah series grain dryers this year have included the inclusion of phosphor bronze bushes on all wearing parts. These improvements, and the other key features of the Savannah range, provide a commercial specification grain dryer for use on farms and in commercial grain stores, says manufacturer Perry of Oakley. The dryers are capable of capacities from 5–150tph. To ensure longevity the Savannah Series dryers are built with a 2mm thick grain column and 3mm thick top ducts in the grain column to help

prevent deformation and wear. To promote consistent movement of the grain down the grain column all Savannah series dryers are fitted with pneumatically controlled shutter discharge. They come with Perry’s own advanced PLC panel and auto control, which uses both the exhaust air temperature and hot grain temperature to give advanced control of the dryer with feedback, to maintain a consistent moisture content of the discharged grain. If connected to the internet, the panel can send the operator email and text alerts including dryer status

Perry of Oakley has introduced some upgrades to its Savannah series of grain dryers.

updates and it will alert them to any issues that may have occurred while drying. The PLC panel can also be connected to an app (available free) where the operator can see and control the dryer control panel thereby making it possible to control the dryer from anywhere with mobile phone signal or Wi-Fi connection.

Perry also manufactures a range of 10–1,000tph handling equipment including chain and flight conveyors, belt and bucket elevators, augers and screw conveyors, aspirator precleaners and belt conveyors.

Two-pronged attack on rats and mice product uses a single feed active ingredient (brodifacoum) which offers a rapid means to control rodents. Its high water content ensures that rodents have a high affinity to the product according to Barrettine’s commercial director Charles Phillips. The Lipogel bait is available in a 300ml caulking tube and bait boxes, and an appropriate cover should be used ensure that non-target animals

For rodenticides to be effective, rodents need to consume the bait and this is complex when there is a plentiful supply of food in the grainstore. One solution can be to use a product which also offers water as rats and mice need to consume about 16 per cent of their body weight in water on a daily basis, says Barrettine Environmental Health. The Romax Venom lipogel

don’t come into contact with the product. Mick Wren of MJW Pest Control recently applied the product within a wheat storage area that had persistent mouse activity. “Once cleaning was complete I applied Romax Venom Lipogel inside the grain store: under the floors of the grain stores, in the fan ducting and to areas showing rodent activity.” He reported good bait takes

in all locations and by the fourth visit there were no further signs of rodent activity observed. “For mice, in an indoor setting, the bait is very palatable in dry environments, only small quantities are required for the bait to be effective and a single tube went a very long way.” The Barrettine product range includes both monitoring and control products.

Grain Handling, Drying & Storage

Growth in grain dryer sales Maldon based Chief Industries UK has reported significant growth in the past few years, particularly in the sales of grain dryers. Manufactured at its own factory in the UK the company has over 60 years experience in grain handling systems, incorporating state-of-the-art design and manufacturing, supplying flat floor silos with capacities ranging

from 30–30,000t, hopper bins with capacities ranging from 2.5–1,400t, and grain dryers capable of drying up to 300t per hour. By designing complexes of a number of silos, the grain storage and drying possibilities are infinite, the company says. Chief UK is a member of the Chief Industries Inc. group of companies, which consists of eight core companies and a number of divisions. Chief has manufacturing facilities in the United Kingdom, the USA and France, and employs almost 2,000 people. Chief UK also represents both Marot and Denis ranges of equipment from France and can supply sales or spares for any existing installation. A CD7-72 dryer (75tph) installed at Newark.

Equipment to ease handling and drying Speeding up and easing grain handling is ever more important today with the capacity of modern day combine harvesters. To meet this challenge Danagri3S has again sold several large GSI silo systems combined with its grain pump system this year. This uses just one motor to fill silos, move grain between or out-load silos. It can also be used to fill and empty floor stores as well. At the heart of the system is a heavy duty chain and paddle which fills the tube to about 70 per cent full to move the grain with

capacities ranging from 80–400t/hr. The closed loop design offers the ability to create a complete load in/load out system that also provides recirculation possibilities that allows higher and lower moisture grains to be blended and assist drying. Systems can be combined with the latest JEMA dry pit intake systems and DMC silo stirrer machines to give fast and simple in-bin drying, allow for a speedy turnaround of trailers and reduce the amount of manpower needed on the farm during harvest time. ■

A new system installed by Danagri this season includes two 650t silos with fans, heaters, stirrers, towers, catwalks, ladders, and 8in grain pump with 4m wide intake in the left hand building pictured above.

Be prepared to tackle rats

Grain Store Hygiene Experts

UNIQUE

The hot and dry summer means rats have been an increasing problem as they search for food and water.

The weather has been a hot topic in the UK recently, but most people do not appreciate the impact it has had on daily pest problems, points out pest control company Pelgar. The long hot summer was welcomed by most people but it has resulted in significantly more wasp problems than the previous few years. Rodents are more common and a frequent problem during the autumn and winter months. The recent dry spell saw much greater rat activity than normal as they came in search of water which they must find daily to survive. This year also saw a particularly early harvest which came with variable yields. When the last of the grains in the

fields are consumed and all the fruit is gone, rodents will migrate from their current habitations in search of a sustainable food source, warns Pelgar International. This is likely to lead to an early and prolonged rodent season. Be prepared, the company advises. As well as ensuring a good stock of high quality bait and bait stations, growers should make sure they’re up to date with the latest regulations. All rodenticides have recently gone through the renewal process and, as such, there are once again updated labels, with new directions and different caveats. Check the packs and read the labels, adds Pelgar. ■

Reduced rate rodenticides available ensure that such products are used correctly, in ways which minimise their exposure to wildlife and other non-target species. The sale and use of professional-strength products are now strictly limited to named individuals who hold a certificate which is approved by the Campaign for Responsible Rodenticide Use (CRRU) or who work for a farming business which is a member of a CRRU-approved Farm Assured Scheme. Evidence of this will be required at the point of purchase. Until 28 February 2018, ‘nonprofessionals’ could still purchase ‘professional-strength’ rodenticides, classified as those containing 50 parts per million (ppm) of anticoagulant rodenticide active substances, but to a maximum pack size of 1.5kg. Now, however, anyone who does not possess the correct paperwork will be unable to purchase any professional-strength product, even those they might have used it for years. Instead, they will be limited to purchasing products which contain less than 30ppm of anticoagulant rodenticide active substances, in

Farmers will probably have to deal with much higher numbers of rodents this autumn and winter. However, many will be unable to use the same products that they have in previous years because of new European legislation governing the sale and use of rodenticides, which came into effect on 1 March 2018. “The unusually hot, dry summer encouraged rodents to breed over an extended period and enabled a high proportion of their offspring to survive, so numbers are likely to be well above average this autumn,” Lodi UK’s Roger Simpson. “Sources of food and shelter in fields are declining quickly and average temperatures are beginning to fall, particularly at night, so rodents will quickly begin to migrate indoors. Therefore, it is critical to implement effective control measures to prevent them causing loss and damage in crop and feed stores, livestock housing, silage clamps, farm workshops and other rural buildings such as stables.” The new European rodenticide regulations are designed to

maximum pack sizes of 150g for grain and paste bait formulations or 300g packs for block baits. All baits must be used in tamperproof and secure rodent bait stations.

Certified Lodi UK suggests that for many who have previously purchased significant quantities of professional-strength rodenticides, the relatively small amount of time it takes to become CRRU-certified will be the best option but points out that effective alternatives are available. “Times have changed, but by using the right products for the target species and situation rodents can still be controlled effectively in rural situations,” Mr Simpson states. “To help non-professional users to select the right type and quantity of product Lodi UK has produced new packs containing pouches of specially-formulated bait which use the same active ingredients as the Lodi Gems professional range, but at a reduced rate of 0.0025% (25ppm).” • Ruby Block 25 and Ruby Grain 25 contain the multi-feed active

Grain Handling, Drying & Storage

Mobile dryer ticks all the boxes When Cornwall farmer Pete Cowling was looking for a new mobile dryer, ease of use, great reliability and a long working life were priorities. Trading as WPL Cowling & Son and based at Trebelsue Farm, Newquay, Pete moved from a continuous flow to a mobile dryer based system in 2012. Pete is the third generation of his family to farm there and the mixed enterprise includes 180ha of arable land growing winter and spring barley, and 222ha of grassland to graze and feed 110 suckler cows and 500 breeding ewes. As well as some barley used for feed on the farm, most is grown for seed under contract to major suppliers. Seed production has been a tradition on the farm since the 1970s when Pete’s father established contracts with several companies and Pete believes that specialising in seed production helps maintain attention to detail and quality. “When we replaced our grain store in 2012, it was designed around the mobile batch dryer we had selected,” he explained. “With automatic operation we could set it

up to run continuously, discharging direct into store and self-loading from a supply topped up as needed. It was ideal, but reliability issues were a problem from the start and, in 2017, we took the decision to cut our losses and replace it with another brand. We looked at several and one of our priorities was better weather protection as the dryer had corroded badly due to the high salt content in the air locally. We can see the sea from the grain store so we always try to invest in products with good corrosion resistance.”

Fully galvanised One of the dryers considered was partially galvanised but previous experience suggested that rust would remain an issue, so Pete then looked at the Mecmar D20T 20t dryer instead. “It was fully galvanised and appeared very well finished. We checked its dimensions and determined it would fit where the previous dryer was sited, avoiding expensive construction work. 56918

“It’s very easy to set-up and use which is also a consideration. Two of us share most of the drying but when we aren’t available other farm staff take over. The Mecmar is so simple that we can just provide instructions over the phone when needed. We receive handy text alerts too, keeping us informed of drying progress and any problems which is reassuring if we leave the dryer running when with the combine in the field.” Mecmar installed the dryer in one and a half days and Pete said he has been impressed since the start with the service, adding that the team seems to know the dryers inside out and any time he has called for advice, accurate answers have been provided immediately. “It performed well this harvest and we were very impressed by its work rate,” Pete explained. “It starts drying

when it’s only part loaded, whereas previously we had to wait until it was full, and then it took 20 minutes or so to achieve full working efficiency. Because it starts earlier, batches are dried more quickly saving time which is significant during such a busy period. Little maintenance is needed and a convenient central greasing point saves time and means lubrication points can’t be missed. “It ticks all the boxes for us,” he concluded. “It was supplied through local dealer Hamblys which is probably our favourite dealer currently. The service is second to none, it’s a great team there and back up is exceptional. Between the dealer and manufacturer I am convinced we made the best buying decision and have full confidence going forward for its planned working life of at least the next 10 years.” ■

Grain Handling, Drying & Storage

Automation reducing customers’ drying costs Grain storage specialist Allmet has been working with Tornum AB to develop a system to reduce drying costs and increase drying capacity. The Intelligent Dryer Control (IDC) is a software based control system which can be used in continuous flow dryers to monitor and control the out-going moisture content. One sensor is placed in the upper drying section of the dryer and measures the incoming moisture content, while the second sensor is placed in the cooling zone close to the dryer outlet, and measures the outgoing moisture levels. By using and monitoring this information, the control unit sets the speed of the dryer discharge in order to obtain the required average moisture content of the grain, irrespective of outside weather conditions. The risk of over-drying is kept to a minimum and consistent moisture levels are more easily achieved. Allmet director James White explains: “The IDC knows exactly

when each grain will pass the sensor at as it leaves the dryer, where it will again test the moisture.” The system can also learn from these results, updating its own data where there are discrepancies, he adds. “This method of learning means that the IDC always maintains up to date data, which is the key to the accuracy it achieves.” The IDC is calibrated to the customer’s own moisture meter. Once this is done all the operator has to do is tell the IDC what grain is in the dryer, what moisture content is desired and then press play. The IDC can be paused at any time. The system continually records temperature and moisture in several parts of the dryer and this information can be viewed live or downloaded; it can also send notifications in real time if desired. “The system runs within the PLC on the control panel, which is installed on the site with the dryer. It is viewed and operated from any device or computer that can access the internet, from anywhere in the world. This also allows us to

The Intelligent Dryer Control (IDC) from Allmet can reduce drying costs and increase drying capacity.

be able view the panel for support purposes and to provide updates when they are available,” he says. According to Allmet, drying to 13 per cent instead of 14 per cent can typically add up to 20 per cent to energy bills, give an additional 1 per cent loss in weight and reduce the dryer’s capacity by up to 16 per cent. Director Charles White says: “Drying grain precisely is a

complex process that you want to get right to maximise the best possible price. When you use manual methods, you run the risk of not reaching the desired moisture content levels, or over-drying. The IDC takes the guess work out of this by maintaining the average outgoing moisture content of the grain, despite large variations in incoming moisture content.” ■

New company to manage equipment sales field trailers can tip into it to load lorries for onward transport. This allows one or two field trailers to be equipped with flotation tyres, minimising soil compaction while onward trailers can be run on super singles or by efficient lorry haulage, explains Agri-Industry Solutions. As an alternative, the X-Flow grain carts and the Interbenne chaser offer a range of capacities from 15–46m2 to handle multiple combines with fast transfer speed augers, the company adds.

The Interbenne range is also used throughout the year as the auger can operate in any position enabling seed and fertiliser hoppers to be loaded via remote control. A significant uptake in these transfer systems when looking at the sustainability of the road haulage of agricultural goods is expected, says Agri-Industry Solutions’ John Crooks. There is an increasing interest in grain transfer systems.

Hard feed wheat thrives despite challenging conditions

KWS Kerrin.

We started with 20ha grown for seed in 2016-17, and increased our area to 135ha for market this season.” Jeremy Squirrell of KE Knock near Stowmarket in Suffolk, who has grown KWS Kerrin seed crops for the past two years, commented: “Kerrin ticks the boxes for me. It’s got good grain quality and is resistant to orange wheat blossom midge (OWBM), which was a big issue for me this year. It also has a good disease resistance profile and is a reliable all-rounder. “This year it yielded 9.3t/ha and has performed well as a second wheat, giving me more rotational choice and greater flexibility.” ■

Early feedback from farmers indicates that KWS Kerrin has once again proved popular among those looking for high-yielding, reliable, hard feed wheat that thrives, even in tough growing conditions. KWS sales manager William Compson, said: “KWS Kerrin delivered an exceptional performance in Agrii’s 2018 National Variety Trials, achieving the top position at both Swindon and Yorkshire sites with 110.2 per cent and 105.6 per cent of control varieties respectively. It also outperformed the control yield variety group by 4 per cent in recent AHDB trials, illustrating that this hardy feed variety has the resilience to take whatever the season brings.” Andy Clark of AS Clark and sons in Saffron Walden agrees. “We averaged 9t/ha of KWS Kerrin this season, grown in less than ideal, gravelly conditions, and yet it performed well despite the recent heat wave. “We specifically grew KWS Kerrin for the Allinson Mill in Bishops Stortford. It wanted a low Hagberg wheat flour that wouldn’t rise, ideal for producing flat breads and wraps.

Precision Farming

Forward looking Kent farmer reaps beneﬁts from RTK investment Knowing back-up was available from his local dealer, Kent farmer Guy Eckley had the confidence to invest in a secondhand RTK network allowing him to move to zero-tillage crop establishment and CTF to improve soil health and farm efficiency. (l-r) Burden Bros Agri Farmsight sales consultant, George Whelan, Guy Eckley and Kris Romney.

Investment in a second-hand RTK system and faith in a local dealer’s back-up has enabled a Kent family farm to improve efficiency, reduce operating costs and increase profitability. David Williams reports. The Eckley family moved to Staplehurst from Herefordshire to grow hops in the 1950s but within five years had discontinued the crop in favour of conventional arable cropping. Now the heavy land is farmed by Guy Eckley and his wife Claire in partnership with Guy’s parents Michael and Vera. Guy and Michael carry out most of the field work with one full-time employee and help from Guy’s sons James and Thomas who are both currently in education. The area farmed has increased to approximately 600ha in three main blocks, one rented and two owned including some added just five years ago. All crops are combinable and Guy grows only first wheats in a rotation including wheat, oilseed rape, spring barley, spring beans and a small area of spring oats being trialled this year. Linseed is also grown to fill ‘gaps’ if problems occur.

Added value The family is keen to grow profitable crops and adds value by selling coldpressed rapeseed oil and flour under its Pure Kent – Eckley Farms brand name. Plain and flavoured oils, and salad dressings are sold, mainly through farm shops and through the Co-op local producers scheme. Sales are increasing so that all the farm’s oilseed rape is now pressed on-site, and two presses are needed to keep up with demand. Rapemeal pellets are a byproduct, converted to rapemeal pellets on farm and sold for animal feed. A recent venture is producing

and selling specialist flour. Sensing a demand for local high quality flour the family started by milling flour in the kitchen, but as the venture proved successful there was investment in a wooden-framed stone mill capable of higher throughput in the yard. Most flour is from wheat, supplied mainly to local bakers, although smaller bags are also produced for retail sale, mainly through farm shops. Barley is mixed with wheat and ground to produce a very successful whiter flour too.

Soil range Heavy Weald Clay accounts for 245ha, although a block at Marden is slightly lighter but still challenging, and land farmed near Leeds Castle is described by Guy as light clay with sand. “Until we took on the additional land at Marden, crops were grown within a min-till regime,” he explained. “Our clay soils mean we have to make the most of opportunities to get on with field operations and, when we took on the extra land, one option considered was investment in bigger machinery. However, that was something we really didn’t want to do, especially on our compactionsensitive soils and as our objective was to farm more efficiently and reduce our operating costs, tying up additional money in new machinery didn’t seem sensible either. We also considered zero-tillage crop establishment that would allow us to keep the same tractors but complete our drilling more quickly and by also moving to controlled traffic farming (CTF), this

would reduce compaction in the growing areas and complement the zero-tillage regime. Achieving this would require investment in a reliable RTK network and guidance system for the multibrand fleet of tractors and combine. “These aren’t cheap but our local John Deere dealer Burden Bros Agri is known for its expertise in precision farming technology and when we saw a second-hand RTK base station advertised, we asked one of the FarmSight specialists, Kris Romney (right), to look at it with us to ensure it was suitable. We purchased three steering wheel motors and a used 2600 display screen, and the dealer worked with us completing the installation.” A second-hand John Deere S690 combine, with a 9m header, was purchased providing a second display screen which could be removed and swapped between tractors. The combine came autosteer-ready and although the Hillmaster version selected was ideal for some of the farm’s sloping land where it reduces grain losses by self-levelling, a consequence of the tilting action was that the RTK signal receiver on top in effect moved sideways a few centimetres every time the self levelling operated. “This meant we had to adjust to an 8.8m cutting width rather than relying on the full 9.0m,” explained Guy. “It wasn’t a problem but to be precisely compatible we had to drill at 4.4m and spray at 26.4m. This meant turning off the end spray nozzle on the 27m boom but with single section nozzle control this was set to work automatically.” A second-hand John Deere 750A zero-till drill was purchased and to achieve the 4.4m drilling width, the outer coulters were removed from the 6.0m machine. This joined the farm’s existing Horsch Sprinter min-till drill which was also adapted to match the CTF system.

with a mole plough. “We need to break up the subsoil but a subsoiler causes too much disturbance, blocking vertical channels through the soil. We have found that using a mole drainer works better, providing just enough loosening below the surface for drainage and allowing air in and, with minimal surface disturbance, black-grass populations have become lower and more easily tackled,” he explained. “Black-grass seeds are best left on the surface rather than incorporating them into the seedbed. Root growth is retarded, the plant is weaker and pre-emergence sprays are more effective. “If we can avoid cultivations, we will,” he added. At the same time as moving to zero-till, Guy introduced cover crops for ground cover, restricting opportunities for weeds to flourish. “The first were planted using the Horsch drill,” he explained. “It was a very diverse mix mainly because we believed that by studying its development we could see which were most effective. However all offered some benefit and whether shallow or deep rooting or fibrous, they all contributed. Buckwheat stood out though as particularly beneficial.” All the oilseed rape is drilled with companion crops, mainly buckwheat and berseem clover, as a mix in the hopper. Guy said that pre-mixing the blend in a grain trailer or stillages has proved successful despite early concern over mixed seed sizes, and main crops and companion crops have established together well. Catch cropping is used to maintain ground cover with mixtures including mustard found to be particularly effective. Cover crops are grazed by sheep and Guy said they are quite efficient at converting the vegetation to organic matter, contributing to soil condition. continued over...

Reducing disturbance Black-grass is an issue, but the move to zero-till and CTF has helped, and the only cultivations now are a pass

In the spring the drill travels on cover crop residues, helping spread weight and reduce compaction, benefitting the soil structure. The John Deere drill is used wherever possible and the Horsch Sprinter, fitted with narrow Metcalfe points, is the back-up for when conditions for zero-tillage aren’t suitable. “We get more black-grass after the Sprinter, but the narrow points reduce disturbance,” he said. “With the improvements to soil structure and quality, if we get the moling right we can gradually establish more with the zero-till drill.” The first John Deere display, bought second-hand with the RTK base station, was an older 2600 model but Guy said a later, 2630 display, which came when the combine was updated to the newer S685 version, offers additional features and benefits. “For the first few years we had to keep track of each drill bout and remember to shut off the tramline coulters every sixth pass,” he said. “But the later screen ‘knows’ where the tramlines should be and reminds us.” Guy’s four-tractor fleet includes two conventional models and two high speed, none of which are currently John Deere but compatibility with the

John Deere system was no problem. “The steering wheel motors performed well but our most recent tractor came auto-steer ready with just an adapter wiring loom needed to link directly to the steering. Advantages include greater precision, so we are in the process of adapting the older tractor for direct control too.”

Unexpected benefit Because the Horsch Sprinter has wide 10-inch row spacing Guy preferred not to use it for wheat, reasoning that the wider gaps provided space for black-grass to flourish. “We used the Horsch drill last year as we were under pressure to get the last of the wheat in, and were surprised to find no yield penalty at harvest compared with the tighter John Deere-drilled crop at its standard 6.5in row spacing,” he said. “So we used it again this year and our agronomist pointed out that with the RTK system ensuring accurate and repeatable row following, and our CTF providing a firm wheeling, the wide spacing might allow enough space to use a mechanical hoe for weed control, saving on herbicide costs.” A call to Kris at Burden Bros asking if inter-row hoeing might be possible resulted in an elderly rear-mounted

Wil-Rich cultivator being adapted for the task. Its duck-foot tines weren’t an ideal shape as the curved profile meant the outer edges ran above the surface at shallow depth, but with the RTK guidance maintaining perfect positioning the black-grass was significantly reduced without damage to the wheat. Side slopes were an issue when the cultivator drifted downhill, but the display’s precise ‘nudge’ adjustment compensated. “Originally we intended hoeing only the heavier black-grass infestations, but were so impressed with the result that we kept going back to do more,” explained Guy. “It avoids spraying so it’s great in terms of cost savings and for the environment and we can use it as many times as we like rather than being restricted by application rates. There are no resistance issues either.” Guy aims to increase use of mechanical weed control in future and is considering purchasing a purposedesigned, front-mounted hoe which will offer precise positioning and be easier to watch. Because the John Deere drill’s standard row width is too narrow, it will require modification to suit. Availability of RTK has also benefitted spraying and spreading on

the farm and section control through GreenStar improves accuracy. Guy has considered moving from granular to liquid fertiliser but said a disadvantage would be conflicting demands during the busy spring period. His current system allows fertiliser applications and spraying to be carried out simultaneously in different locations when conditions are ideal to maximise efficacy. “I also believe that we have benefitted this year through using granular fertilisers because of our improved soil health. It’s been exceptionally dry but since moving to zero-tillage improved soil structure and higher organic content has benefitted moisture retention, so fertiliser applied has remained available to the crop and has been taken up by the extensive root system, when liquid fertiliser might not have been so effective.” Moving to zero-tillage establishment has simplified fertiliser applications, as previously the total requirement was split into four parts for wheat. “Our CTF regime allows us to go earlier as the ground is more supportive now and, as the soil structure has improved, nutrients are held more effectively so there is a longer window of availability to the continued over...

plant. We used to stress trying to find four suitable windows for applications but reducing this to three has made it easier.” SOYL N-sense data is used to create field maps for variable rate applications with green area indexes uploaded to the John Deere screens for prescription mapping. Yield maps from the combine are used for planning, and Guy said they not only reveal what has been happening but also indicate what has to be done for the next season. With efficient back-up available locally Guy has no doubt he will continue building the farm’s data management around the John Deere system. “I like the simplicity of MyJohnDeere for managing data – it’s simple and more reliable than other farm management systems we have used on the farm,” observed Guy. “Data transfer is more reliable too and whereas we used to have to remember to take USB sticks with us everywhere, now wireless data transfer provides quicker and more reliable data handling.” Kris said demand for precision farming solutions continues to grow and Remote Display Access and JDLink telematics are offering growing

benefits to the dealer and users. “Remote display access lets us see the same screen view as an operator in the field so we can talk him through set up and settings changes quickly and efficiently, as though we were in the cab with him,” he commented. “It’s great for optimising performance and users appreciate the reassurance it provides,” Kris added. Burden Bros Agri has recently been appointed one of only two UK dealers to receive Expert Alerts. The standard system allows general alerts to be sent to the dealer when problems occur and to alert dealers and users when services are due so they can be scheduled to avoid interfering with field operations. Expert Alerts, currently in its early stages of roll-out to dealers across Europe, goes a stage further by monitoring performance and working data and anticipating when problems might occur. “We are delighted to have been chosen as one of the first UK dealers to operate the system,” said Kris. “When major faults occur they are analysed to identify the cause and sometimes a common pattern of events will have preceded the issue. If similar machines display a similar fault pattern later, this is highlighted to the

dealer who can visit and check the machine, correcting the faults before the major breakdown occurs. “We had a machine last year with a major transmission fault and it was determined that a similar machine in Germany had previously experienced an identical problem at a similar number of worked hours. In both cases the cause was the same minor fault. If Expert Alerts had been operational at that time we would have been warned the breakdown was likely and could have fixed the minor fault, preventing the eventual transmission failure,” he explained.

farming it easily, but using less fuel and machinery,” he added. “We are fortunate having a helpful and friendly team providing back-up nearby at Burden Bros Agri, and that gave us confidence to make our initial investment in the precision farming system. Without it we couldn’t have moved to CTF, and wouldn’t be considering initiatives such as mechanical hoeing.” ■

Worthwhile Guy believes the farm’s move to zerotillage and CTF has been worthwhile. “Our soils are improving, we are creating better growing conditions for our crops while making soils less attractive to problem weeds. Our costs have reduced and operations such as spreading and spraying are more timely, helping us make the most of expensive inputs. “It would have been easy to assume we needed extra tractor power and bigger implements to cope with the additional land when we took it on but by becoming more efficient we are

Save Fuel, Save Time

Guy Eckley believes his precision farming investment was worthwhile and says the John Deere-based system offers the most reliable farm management package of any he has used on the farm. Compatibility of the John Deere display screens with the farm’s other tractor brands hasn’t proved an issue.

Precision Farming

Precision farming right down to the tyres Italian farming company Nodari scrutinises every aspect of its production including specific BKT tires for each application.

Precision farming has become a concept covering every aspect of farm operations right down to tyre choice, says manufacturer BKT. The company is committed to research into sensor-guided autonomous transport, enhanced integrated systems, optimised data flow, and analytic processes aiming at

increased efficiency, it says. It has gained in-depth knowledge of parameters such as inflated tyre dimensions, static footprint with different loads, contact pressure distribution, rolling circumference data, and the impact of belt width on tyre performance. This allows engineers to develop virtual

prototypes which accelerates product development and saves time in the design stage. North Italian farming contractor Nodari specialises in biogas plants and uses BKT tyres on its machinery. Every job that Nodari performs is aimed at the ‘Agriculture 4.0’ report – from land mapping by means of drones to variable-rate seeding. Through smart farming methods and using collated data, Nodari analyses fields and the areas to be fertilised

or seeded. This helps maximise crop yields and avoid wastage. Equipment choices are scrutinised and, more than ever, a specific tyre for every type of application is required taking into account inflation pressure, especially during land preparation. It takes only five minutes, but the result is obvious, says Nodari: A BKT tyre developed with VF (very high flexion) technology, which is inflated to the Indian manufacturer’s recommendations, enables a better load distribution and increased traction, without slippage, faster transport, and better fuel economy. ■

Slug pellet product added to range Parts, machinery and equipment supplier Spaldings has added Sluxx HP to its product offering. The slug bait contains the active ingredient ferric phosphate and has a novel mode of action, says the company. Following consumption of the bait, feeding ceases. It should be noted that no excessive slime secretions will be evident either on or around the crop. As slugs usually retreat underground to die, there

will not be any evidence of dead slugs. Slug pellets remain lethal but attractive for slugs to eat even when they have been applied for some days. Sluxx HP is a bait attractive to all species of slugs that damage plants, says Spaldings. The company recommends the product for use with all crops. Advantages include the deeper, darker blue pellet which is more visible on the field and excellent

resistance to mould. The uniform pellets spread evenly and no buffer zone is required, it adds. They also have low toxicity to people, mammals, birds and other non-target organisms such as worms and slug feeding beetles. The pellets degrade leaving no residues and are approved for use in organic systems. ■ The deeper, darker blue pellet of Sluxx HP is more visible on the field, says Spaldings.

Versatile and adaptable reduced tillage drill As no-till and min-till drilling becomes ever more popular, the need for a robust tried and tested machine is paramount, says Sly Agri. The Sly Boss drill uses a coulter that has been developed over 15 years in very testing conditions in Australia. Developing a system that ‘opens the slot’ using as little downward pressure as possible, the company then proceeded to adapt the coulter on its machines to suit the European market. The drill

is available in widths from 3–9m, offering row spacings of 16.7, 18.75, 20 and 25cm – making it a versatile machine to suit a variety of needs, points out Sly Agri. There is the option of single or multiple tanks giving the grower a choice of more seed capacity or the ability to apply granulated fertiliser from one of the tanks. The double angled single disc, with both side and rear depth control wheels with easy adjust mechanism,

makes the system very adaptable from field to field, depending on crop and depth of seed trench required. The seed boot situated within the shadow of the disc, and not in contact with the ground, helps keep the system free from clogging and bunching. The closing wheel and main depth control wheel can have an adjuster to change the angle of travel, making closing of the slot easier in both dry and wet conditions. The Sly Boss drill is sturdy, versatile

Auto-steer options on display The latest additions to the MüllerElektronik product range will be demonstrated at CropTec this year by David King Electronics, including its TRACK-Guide III GPS parallel guidance system. The system includes the TOUCH800 terminal that is based on the same hardware as the 12in Isobus terminal TOUCH1200, using a capacitive touch screen protected beneath glass making this robust for agricultural operations, says the company. The TOUCH800 has an 8in TFT colour display with a resolution of 800x600 pixels. The TRACK-Guide III is versatile and expandable using the concept of APP & GO to unlock optional functions including the automatic steering system TRACK-Leader Auto. There are three versions of Auto-steer available: TRACK-Leader AUTO Pro is the hydraulic version of the automatic steering; TRACKLeader AUTO Iso is the upgrade version for tractors and machines that are auto steer-ready and only need to be equipped with a steering computer; TRACK-

TOUCH800 with electric wheel motor.

Leader AUTO eSteer is an electric wheel motor which can be installed on any machine quickly and easily. With these products Müller-Elektronik is able to offer a corresponding steering option with highly accurate results for most machines, says David King Electronics. The A101 GPS receiver using EGNOS or WAAS correction signal comes as standard with the TRACK-Guide III kit. It is possible to supply the kit with other types of receiver or RTK depending on the level of accuracy required and user’s budget available, adds the firm.

RTK signal provider expands with demand The farm’s new Fendt Rogator sprayer is the latest machine to be connected via the Ntrip network.

A Trimble signal is used, offering instant compatibility with products fitted to several major tractor manufacturers and by many professional dealers. “The beauty of Trimble is that it also offers great cross-compatibility,” added PJ. “Most major brands can be set to use it but delivering the positioning signal through Ntrip improves compatibility further still, offering advantages to end users and dealers, while delivery through mobile phone masts means coverage is extensive.”

Extended area

An RTK signal provider which started trading when a group of farmers couldn’t achieve the coverage they needed for their own operations continues to expand its network, and has also recently extended its service allowing compatibility with almost any guidance system brand. David Williams reports. RTK Farming Ltd was founded by four south Cambridgeshire farmers whose objective was to ensure that rather than having small areas of their farms covered by a reliable RTK signal, they could achieve precise guidance across their entire working areas. Starting with just five base stations, demand from local farmers grew and the service was extended to cover most of eastern England. Currently, more than 100 base and repeater stations serve more than 4 million hectares and the company

claims to be the largest and most robust RTK operator in the UK. “Crucial to our success has been the quality of our service,” explained sales manager PJ Walker (PJ). “Rather than operating everywhere to the limit of the transmitters’ range, we ensure a high degree of overlap guaranteeing a strong signal even in hilly areas or where the signal is shaded, and the latest upgrade to our service allowing reception by Ntrip sim-cards improves availability even further.”

In January 2017 the company responded to demand from farmers and contractors in Kent to provide a signal service there too. RTK Farming customer Matt Solley was one of the first to sign up. Trading as JS Crop Ltd, his farm and contracting business is based at Great Mongham, near Deal and approximately 2,200ha of combinable crops are grown on the family farm and land which is contract-farmed. The company also offers a contracting service including combine harvesting and fieldwork around cereal crop establishment. “The beauty of dealing with RTK Farming Ltd is the whole service it offers,” he explained. “Our work is spread across the region and we often struggled for a signal previously relying on fixed base stations, but since moving to Ntrip

there have been no issues. We haven’t adopted a formal CTF field operations system, but compromise by maintaining tramlines in the same positions every year and our machinery is all geared around compatibility with the 36m tramline width, including rolling at 12m after drilling, so signal reliability is important to us.” Guidance and auto-steer are used for almost all tasks including ploughing, and variable rate fertiliser application is used with granules applied through an Amazone spreader. “We work with Soyl to plan our variable rate fertiliser application and use quality granules for a reliable 36m spread width and pattern,” Matt explained. “We also use variable rate seeding, working from maps generated by Soyl and none of this would be possible without reliable and repeatable GPS positioning.” The farm’s new Fendt Rogator sprayer is the latest machine to be connected via the Ntrip network and Matt said there were no issues with the Fendt terminal’s compatibility. “We are mainly on Trimble hardware now,” he said. “As machines are updated, we are gradually moving more to Trimble for the replacement, but Ntrip allows us to reliably connect any brand to the service.”

Early adopter Matt said that when his business first invested in guidance the concept was new, but even as his products were updated there were frequently

coverage, compatibility and performance issues. “Just when we were sure we had everything right we would find dead spots prevented systems working as they should. Since investing in RTK Farming’s Ntrip network this hasn’t occurred and our decision is paying off. We can travel and work anywhere in east Kent with no worries at all. “What has also been a major factor is dealing with PJ himself all the time. He looks after everything personally and all our operators have his number with them, and are reassured that he is there for

back-up and advice when needed. His knowledge and understanding of what we are doing is excellent so if issues occur then he can usually talk the user through solutions over the phone.” Data sharing between machines has also been made possible. “Our sprayer ‘talks’ to our tractors transmitting field data such as A-B lines and tramline information. Our variable rate drilling and spreading is reliable and achieving great benefits, but without PJ and RTK Farming and the excellent signal coverage we wouldn’t be doing it.” ■

From next April, businesses with a turnover of more than £85,000 will have to submit their VAT returns through compatible accounts software. Making Tax Digital (MTD) for VAT is HMRC’s flagship programme to digitise VAT. For the estimated 75 per cent of farm businesses who are keeping manual records, this will mean investing in new software. Chartered accountant Anne Cianchi, Making Tax Digital project consultant for Farmplan, says there are four key facts businesses need to be aware of. Firstly that there will no longer be the option to use a paper-based record keeping system to calculate the amount of VAT owed before submitting a paper return or manually entering calculations on the HMRC website. Secondly, farms using electronic spreadsheets, such as Microsoft Excel, will also have to invest in specialist accounting software or bridging software (a tool to transfer data from one place to another) as, after the change, they will be the only products capable of

sending and receiving data from the website. “HMRC has made it clear it will not be providing free software for users to make VAT submissions,” she explains. And finally: “Only one submission will be allowed for each individual VAT registration number,” she adds. “This means companies that keep multiple sets of accounts for different businesses – for example, a farm and a diversification enterprise – will need to combine them into one figure for their VAT return. “Farmers and bookkeepers should be aware that not all software has this capability.” With some accounts packages costing upwards of £7,500 over a 5 year period, it is important that businesses take the time to research options and speak with relevant professionals advises Farmplan. Holding off purchasing until nearer the deadline may be tempting – particularly in the current financial climate – but may run an increased risk of investing in a costly mistake, it says.

Sprayers

Power on the Land

Self-propelled, trailed and mounted sprayer model updates are all included in this month’s Power on the Land. Mike Williams writes. Small tank capacities were one of the principle reasons why many customers in the past switched from a tractormounted sprayer to a trailed model with a bigger tank size. Many of the mounted sprayer manufacturers have responded by offering bigger tanks that extend the interval between refill stops, and some also offer a front-mounted tank that can provide a substantial addition to the total spraying capacity. Lemken’s Sirius rear mounted sprayer has tank sizes from 900–1,900 litres, and customers can also add a Gemini front-mounted tank holding an additional 1,100 litres. Combining the two can bring the total tank volume to 3,000 litres, matching the capacity of many small to medium trailed sprayers. The Lemken Gemini front tank is available in two versions, one designed to carry either clean water or liquid fertiliser while the other is equipped with an agitator to maintain the mix when carrying crop protection spray liquid. The Lemken range of mounted and trailed sprayers covers boom widths from 12–39m and tank sizes from 900–6,000 litres, and a special feature is the selection of control systems available. These include the Megaspray control module offered on Sirius 10 and trailed Vega 12 models, providing control through any cab mounted universal Isobus interface.

Moulded plastic A recent addition to the Team Sprayers range is the new Arian 2 tractor-mounted sprayer. The tank on the new sprayer is made with rotationally moulded plastic instead of the fibreglass structure previously used, and one of the advantages of the new version is a weight reduction amounting to about 275kg without

reducing structural strength and rigidity. Because of the weight reduction the largest tank option for the Arian 2 has been increased to 1,800 litres instead of the 1,500 litres maximum on the previous sprayer. The spray equipment range from Cambridgeshire based Team also includes a front mounted tank available in 1,000- and 1,500-litre sizes and suitable for use with the Arian 2 rear-mounted sprayer. Trailed sprayer choices include the range-topping Leader 4 model with up to 5,000 litres tank capacity and boom options up to 32m wide.

Optis is one of 4 different mounted sprayer series from Kuhn including the Altis models with tanks holding up to 2,000 litres, a 230-litre rinse tank and aluminium booms up to 28m wide. Mounted sprayer capacities can also be supplemented by adding an auxiliary front tank holding up to 1,500 litres. Kuhn also offers 4 different trailed sprayer series including Atlantique and Lexis models with capacities starting from 2,400 litres. The flagship models from Kuhn are the Oceanis trailed

sprayers with 7,700 litres maximum tank capacities plus an additional 550-litre rinse tank. Booms up to 48m wide are available, using Kuhn’s advanced Equilibra suspension system.

Self-propelled FarmGEM’s extensive sprayer range includes Sapphire self-propelled models powered by Perkins engines developing 200 or 225hp. The flagship sprayer is the Sapphire III with up to 6,000 litres tank capacity, the transmission is hydrostatic and there is an airbag suspension system for the cab mounting. The Sapphire range also includes the VT2 model designed to work in tall crops such as maize, oilseed rape or sunflowers. Design features include 200cm of underside clearance, and the position of the twin 2,000-litre spray tanks adjusts automatically to maintain maximum stability when the axle track width is altered. The FarmGEM Quartz ECO trailed sprayers with 2,500- and 3,000-litre tanks plus the MVF mounted sprayer with a tank holding 1,200 litres are both available with the recently introduced FV vertical folding boom. Maximum width is 18m and the specification includes electro-hydraulic controls.

Name change Earlier this year a major change in the sprayer market saw the Kellands range of self-propelled sprayers appearing under the McConnel brand name. The name change followed a takeover deal when the American company that already owned McConnel and a number of other UK machinery companies, made a successful bid to buy the Kellands business. Kellands sprayers, which are now McConnel Sprayer Division products, include the low ground pressure Agribuggy A280 powered by a 148hp Cummins engine and carrying a 2,700-litre spray tank and a 12/24m aluminium boom. The specification includes two/four-wheel steering with a crab setting and the four-speed ZF mechanical transmission has a 50kph top speed. Power output increases to 275hp for the Multidrive M380-4 sprayer, available in a standard version

with a 14,000kg payload capacity, equivalent to a 9000-litre spray tank, and there is also an FC or forward control version.

Increased capacity Maximum tank capacity for the tractormounted sprayers from Berthoud is 1,600 litres available on the Elyse series, but this can be increased by adding the 1,000-litre front-mounted tank. Boom widths for mounted sprayers are up to 42m, and there are four different boom series available. Berthoud also offers three different trailed sprayer ranges providing tank capacities up to 6,700 litres, and the range-topping Vantage models feature the Actiflex II axle suspension system, 550-litres/ min pump capacity and the choice of Axiale or Ektar booms. Berthoud’s self-propelled Raptor sprayers are powered by Deutz engines delivering 217 or 245hp, with the power delivered through a Rexroth hydrostatic transmission with 3 ranges and a 40kph top speed. The specification includes a chassis with pneumatic suspension, maximum tank capacity is 5,200 litres and the steering modes include two-wheel, four-wheel and crab.

Top model The top model in the high capacity sprayer range from Horsch is the self-propelled Leeb PT 350 powered by a 354hp Mercedes engine and with 5,000 litres maximum capacity in a stainless steel tank. The specification includes four-wheel steering and the hydrostatic transmission gives stepless speed adjustment with a 60kph maximum. There is also a PT 280 model with a 285hp engine, up to 8,000-litre tank capacity and 36m maximum boom width, and the top speed is 40kph with a 50hp version available. Horsch also offers the Leeb GS trailed sprayer equipped with stainless steel tanks holding up to 8,000 litres. The biggest boom is 36m wide with 7 sections, the maximum pump capacity is 1,000-litres/min and 3 different equipment levels are available. The options list includes air suspension with levelling compensation. ■

Sprayers

Every drop hits the right spot

StrictSprayPlus calculates the speed and required rate of every nozzle.

Farmers need the guarantee that a solution is sprayed with the desired rate at the right place, so the solution can work, protect, and feed the right plants at the right place, says Agrifac. To help spray operators apply perfect amounts everywhere, every time, the StrictSprayPlus, calculates the speed and required spraying rate for every nozzle, it explains. Flow is controlled by changing the time the fast switching nozzle body is open or closed. As opening and closing time can be changed individually, the number of switches per second is high as necessary while remaining as low as possible. This ensures the spray pattern is always accurate, while the lifespan of the valves is extended. To prevent overlap and overdosing to the maximum, the system includes single nozzle

sections so every nozzle can be switched on/off individually. In addition, when making a turn while spraying, different nozzles move at different speeds. This is because the outside turn is a longer path, than the inside turn so to spray consistently at the same rate, faster moving nozzles need to spray more, and slower moving nozzles need to spray less, says the company. Regular rate control is achieved by changing the water pressure. However, changing the pressure does not only change the flow rate through each nozzle, but also changes the spray pattern and droplet size. Additionally, StrictSprayPlus does not need to change the spray pressure to change the flow rate, therefore the spray pattern and droplet size stay the same, regardless of the flow, says Agrifac.

New models for sprayer range Sprayer manufacturer Horsch has updated is Leeb trailed sprayer lineup with two new models. The Leeb GS is aimed at large farms while the Leeb LT was developed for smaller to mediumsized farms that do not need the larger capacity machines. Central to the new designs is BoomControl Pro, a system designed to keep the boom as close to the crop as possible. Horsch research shows that distance from the crop is the key factor in reducing drift and increasing crop penetration, allowing farmers to make the most of herbicides and pesticides. BoomControl Pro is available across the Horsch sprayer range.

With the Leeb LT, features include close nozzle spacing, pneumatic control and a continuous cleaning system. The Leeb 4 LT, 5 LT and 6 LT trailed sprayers feature plastic tanks with 4,000- 5,000- and 6,000-litre capacities respectively, and all feature BoomControl Pro. Meanwhile the new generation Leeb GS builds on previous models with a greater level of equipment and new configurations. It is now available as ECO, CCS (Continuous Cleaning System) and CCS Pro variants. The sprayer is available with a 6,000-, 7,000- or 8,000-litre stainless steel tank that allows for easy and quick cleaning. The new Leeb GS line is equipped with Horsch software and Isobus compatible electronics.

The Horsch Leeb GS features BoomControl Pro.

A new force in spraying Hardi has extended its trailed range of sprayers with the introduction of the Navigator and Commander Hawk series. Developed for spraying at higher speeds with better performance, and resulting in increased overall capacity, a full range of tank sizes are available including 3,000-, 4,000-, 5,000- and 6,000-litre units for the Navigator, while the Commander tops out with 3,300-, 4,500-, 5,500and 7,000-litre options. A new dimension to modern day spraying, says the company, is fluid rate controller ‘DynamicFluid4’ which uses four sensors with a Fast Feed

Forward system; meaning the system adjusts to changes in the field as they happen, rather than a traditional fluid system which waits to measure a change. Together they offer high precision, measuring and adjusting the regulation at 20 times per second, says Hardi. If the sprayer’s speed changes, or boom sections are opened or closed, DynamicFluid4 will respond and adjust accurately and quickly, maintaining target rate in less than two seconds. This results in a more accurate application and product savings. According to Hardi, its Delta Force

boom has the best stability on the market and it is available in widths from 24–39m. A hydraulic anti yaw mechanism automatically recharges in the field and ensures exceptional boom stability at all times. The hydraulic anti yaw also incorporates plunge cylinders, which take the shock when pulling away and coming to a stop. The optional AutoTerrain boom management system can be fitted offering accuracy in either soil, crop or hybrid modes. The Hawk models benefit from the optional HC9600 or smaller HC8600 precision farming

Sprayers

terminals or, alternatively, they can be delivered ISO ready. All options give unique control of the primary spraying functions via the Hardi Grip and have intuitive features to make spraying safe and easy. AutoFill, TurboFiller and AutoAgitation allow quick and safe filling of the sprayer, with PrimeFlow, AutoTerrain, AutoHeight and AutoSection taking care of in field precision. Finally AutoWash, selected from the driver’s seat, ensures the sprayer is always maintained to the exact high standard every time, before documenting the entire task via WiFi, USB or print. ■

Additions to ball valve range Altek International has introduced a new of range of manual twoand three-way ball valves. The valves are designed to interchange easily and will fit most makes of sprayer. The valves sized 1in and above include M8 brass fittings for easy mounting. Other specifications include

fibreglass reinforced PP body and ball, BSP threads and Teflon seats with a choice of two-way or threeway continuous flow (T ball) or non flow (L ball). The new two-way and three-way ball valves from Altek International are designed to interchange easily.

Sprayer upgrade reﬁts proving popular Retro-fitted machines can look as good as new.

Demand for high end used sprayers is growing, according to Norfolk crop sprayer company Sprayline. “Customers are realising the huge savings available from ordering a used upgraded sprayer compared with the cost of a new one,” says Sprayline company director Graham Calver. “The technology available today to retro fit is the same as you can find on new machines. “We have worked with our manufacturer and technology suppliers to ensure the hardware

and the software work seamlessly together. With just one computer box and one multi-function joystick in the cab, you can activate all the systems of the sprayer. “Most users today wish for GPS control, auto height and boom levelling, pneumatic spray control with high pressure boom re-circulation, auto filling, boom lighting and, in the case of trailed and self-propelled sprayers, axle suspension and steering. “Larger tank sizes are required for those requesting 4,000-litres plus, and, with boom levelling popularity, boom widths will increase. “We ensure that all electrical and hydraulic functions integrated into the sprayer have a manual failsafe system. “With the machines being prepared and re-painted, they leave looking like new.”

New twin nozzle system for improved coverage Improvements to maximise efficiencies and coverage of seed tubers have been made to the CTC2 Storemaster, British sprayer manufacturer Team Sprayers has announced. The improvements include a new rotating twin nozzle system which comes as standard and directs spray such as Maxim100FS to give an all-round coverage. Additionally, the applicator is also now available with the additional option of a chemical injection pump system, designed to inject product at the correct ratio for increased efficiencies of application, explains the company. The fibreglass treatment canopy features the unique rotating nozzle system and the canopy achieves chemical containment, improving health and safety for the operator. Internal drain channels are present to eliminate chemical run off and well-positioned airflow fans assist in delivering the spray pattern onto the tubers. The treatment canopy is

available in various widths and also has removable inspection windows. “We have had some great results and feedback on the recent developments to the CTC2,” says Team Sprayers' managing director Danny Hubbard. “We worked with Darren Wonnacott from Frontier Agriculture to ensure that the sprayer would offer the best possible results for spray application and we are really pleased with the results.” ■

The Pioneer trailed sprayer is now the most popular machine from FarmGEM. Specified with a 2,500- or 3,000-litre (3,300-litre max) tank and the Self-Trak drawbar, it is well suited to vegetable crops where precise wheel tracking is key and to oilseed rape where the smooth under belly and 600mm+ clearance is important. The Self-Trak drawbar was introduced more than 20 years ago and has evolved over time. It requires no complicated electronics, hydraulics, sensors or control from the operator. A Delta 80 terminal with 8.4in colour screen controls the application rate combined with joystick to control the spraying on/ off and boom functions. Axle suspension, hydraulic brakes and an automatic priming and purging circulation system are also standard features as are the stainless steel 19mm spray lines and chemical induction hopper. A new two-stage folding heavy duty Series 3 boom with 3D active boom suspension is fitted to the Pioneer trailed models.

Boom widths of 18, 20, 21 and 24m are available as the 3 Series versatile construction allows boom widths to be changed by adding wider bolt-in sections. The boom has tilt correction and boom lock as standard features and the booms can also be specified with independent variable geometry and independent outer boom fold. They are manufactured using a lattice style construction from 3 and 5mm thick high tensile steel. All moving joints are secured with stainless steel pins which are tab secured to prevent excess wear. Each joint also has a greasing point. The 3D active suspension controls boom bounce, incline and yaw providing a very stable platform for the spray nozzles. The bounce suspension remains active when the boom is in its transport position, protecting the boom when travelling over rough farm tracks and roads. Other features such as precision farming DGPS auto spray section control, auto boom levelling and LED night lighting are also available as options. ■

Farm Safety & Security

Rural crime is a worrying issue for farmers Insurance adviser at Farmers & Mercantile Insurance Brokers (FMIB), Dominic Snook, discusses the impact rural crime is having on the farming community and suggests some key tips on how to protect your farm and business.

Rural crime continues to be an extensive issue for farmers, and those living and working in rural Britain. The number of incidents relating to rural crime have increased significntly over the past four years, with 2018 set to be the worst year yet. There is no exact definition of rural crime but looking at it from an insurance aspect, it’s claims that usually arise from livestock worrying and theft. As urban areas expand and more people move closer to the countryside, the likelihood of incidents involving livestock and dogs is heightened. In June alone, FMIB had five incidents of sheep worrying reported, resulting in compensation being paid for 64 ewes and lambs. Insurance protection against livestock worrying is fairly inexpensive but has historically been missed from insurance covers. We also regularly

come across farmers that have insured against their sheep but don’t have cover for the loss of financial income from their lambs which are three to four times more likely to be affected by worrying. It is vital for farmers to have an annual review of their Insurance covers to make sure they are adequate and actually covering your business needs.

Power tools and ATVs are the most popular items for theft.

•

Isolated The countryside continues to be attractive to thieves due to properties being often isolated and hard to protect. At FMIB we have a theft related claim every three days with power tools and ATVs being the most popular. Here are a few practical actions we recommend you take that may help to protect your business and assets; • Removing keys from vehicles – This may seem obvious but

•

we still see a high number of ATVs driven out of the farm yard as the keys have been left in the ignition. Also, under many insurance policies leaving the keys in a vehicle can actually invalidate your insurance. Embrace modern technology – CCTV cameras and motion sensory lights have been taken to the next level and can now send notifications of movements to your mobile phone. Items such as these can provide 24 hour monitoring in your most vulnerable locations. Adding tracking devices and anti-theft sprays to your agricultural vehicles allows easier identification for the police and can help with finding stolen vehicles. Locking windows and doors – Again obvious, but this needs to include your agricultural buildings as well as your house. Installing a door with a built in lock is much more difficult to break than a padlock. Store high risk items in secure

shipping containers – Heavy duty and theft proof shipping containers can provide safe storage for your theft attractive items such as ATVs and power tools. It is important to always report incidents of rural crime to the police. Too often incidents are not reported as individuals do not want to be seen as wasting police time. Not reporting incidents can create false figures that show crime is reducing. It is important all incidents are reported to give an accurate picture of the crime in the countryside. If you are concerned about rural crime in your area or whether your current insurances are adequate, do not hesitate to contact us for further advice. ■

Reducing risk of accidents and injuries Making farming safer for everyone was the idea behind Farm Fit’s Field Shield product. The product, which was a British Farming Awards finalist in 2017, fits directly to the three point linkage on the front of any tractor and can be adjusted to a specific width. The safety bumper can be fitted with variable weights to give the required ballast to counter balance any machinery or trailers.

Field Shields are fitted with a wireless camera system which comes with a split screen, meaning it can be easily moved into any tractor. The cameras mean that when approaching a junction or gateway, the driver has a clear view of any traffic or pedestrians. The bumper provides protection for both the tractor driver and other drivers, as it stops other vehicles coming into direct contact with the

tractor and reduces the risk of major accidents, injuries or fatalities. The company offers a large range of lighting systems which can be fitted to the bumper in any colour, and can include a personalised front name plate if required. All of Farm Fit’s products are made in Yorkshire with British steel. Farm Fit’s Field Shield provides protection for the tractor driver and other drivers.

iLevel is a remote tank monitoring system that provides accurate ‘real time’ information of the contents of any bulk storage tank Using the latest mobile phone telemetry, the level of any liquid can be checked anywhere in the world simply by accessing the iLevel mobile app on your mobile phone or via your secure login to the iLevel web site. It’s intuitive and easy to read traffic light symbols inform you at a glance the level of any storage tank.

iLevel saves farmers money and improves farm efficiency • Keeps farmers informed so that they do not run out of fuel or liquid fertiliser • Helps manage stocks and buy efficiently Running out of fuel during harvest is a typical issue for farmers and with today’s combines using 1,000 litres per day and high horsepower tractors consuming up to 1,200 litres a day, monitoring and managing fuel stocks is key to an efficient farming operation. This was a key factor in Edd Banks, Thomas Banks & Partners, Cambridgeshire deciding to install iLevel at his farm. The cost of running out is £500 which makes iLevel repay itself 200% within the first harvest. In addition to the extra cost of an emergency fuel delivery, running out of fuel will mean not being able to combine for on average 5 hours whilst an emergency fuel delivery is organised. The iLevel tank monitoring app saves farmers money and improves farm efficiency.

Farm Safety & Security

Tackling the issue of farm security

How safe is your farm? Security system ActiveWatch is offered by AQM and offers over a 90 per cent asset recovery rate.

can lead to higher premiums, increased excesses or refusal to provide cover for re-occurring losses. However farmers can take precautions to protect their assets which can also lead to reductions in insurance premiums. Each farming business is unique and it’s vital that security measures are tailored to suit the individual farm. Physical assets such as vehicles and equipment can all be tagged with trackers. ActiveWatch however takes a slightly different approach, but reports an asset recovery rate of over 90 per cent. The set-up is not prohibitively expensive. In fact the savings on insurance premiums may even cover the cost of the equipment, says ActiveWatch. ■

Low cost anti-theft system West Midlands company Derwent Lock & Security has introduced a low cost anti-theft security system to combat the on-going problem of machinery theft, says the business. The Block Stem agricultural and plant security system is suitable for tractors, construction plant such as JCBs and even mini-diggers, or any other self-propelled machine with an exposed power steering ram. Imported from Italy, prices for the Block Stem system start at £240 and it is available with a 5-year warranty and a money-back guarantee in case of any failure. It has received full Thatcham accreditation, and also approval from NFU Mutual to qualify the system for discounts on insurance premiums, adds the company. Manufactured in two sections from heavy-duty C4 steel, the tamper-proof Block Stem simply slots

together over the hydraulic steering axle ram of any self-propelled machine, and is locked in place with a unique key when the wheels are at full lock. Once fitted, the unit not only acts as an effective visual deterrent; it also means the vehicle can only go round in circles, preventing the vehicle from being loaded or driven away, even if the thief has the ignition key. Block Stem is available in different lengths up to 220mm and diameters from 22–50mm. These dimensions fit almost all available makes of hydraulic steering ram on the market. As well as being Thatcham approved as a P3 anti-theft device, the system is endorsed and approved by JCB Insurance Ltd and, as such, carries a premium discount of up to 40 per cent, concludes Derwent.

Farms are often seen as soft targets with low levels of security, and items such as expensive vehicles, machinery, scrap metal and high quality tools vulnerable to theft, explains livestock marketing cooperative Anglia Quality Meat. The overall cost of UK rural crime according to recent statistics is around £40 million per year. ATVs, power tools and tractors remain firm favourites among thieves. Besides theft, there are also concerns from livestock farmers for their own safety and that of their staff from animal activists and campaigners. All of these criminal acts have to be paid for, and it usually results in farmers having to make claims on insurance policies to cover their losses. This in turn

Fruit Focus

Competitively priced tractor is the perfect package Essex-based David and Jane Fleming invested in a New Holland T4-110F narrow tractor to carry out operations in their 32ha vineyard.

A purpose-designed narrow tractor is offering even greater benefits than expected for a large Essex vineyard. David Williams reports. Farming 930ha of arable crops on heavy Essex clay near Purleigh, Essex, Jane and David Fleming diversified into grape production in 2006, putting 32ha into vines and sharing machinery from their arable enterprise where possible. “Several very successful vineyards in our local area share the same soil type as much of our farm,” explained David. “My interest and skill set is more suited to successfully growing crops than producing wine so we decided to grow and supply grapes to bespoke wine producers around the UK.” Now the vines at Great Whitmans Vineyard are in full production yielding enough quality fruit for approximately 140,000 bottles of wine per year. All are hand picked and the plants include three varieties; Pinot Noir, Pinot Blanc and Bacchus.

Compaction issues The farm’s heavy clay is ideal for grape production although compaction can be a problem so the vines are spaced at 3.3m, allowing room for a 200hp tractor and subsoiler, used every second year to loosen the subsoil between alternate rows and allow the roots to spread more easily. Mole draining is also carried out if required, and the soil is cultivated, damaging the roots to put the plants under stress and encourage more fruit production. Most vineyard tasks have been carried out by a 100hp New Holland 7840 2wd, including side trimming the vines to cut back side and top growth, and grass control using a three section Fischer under-vine mower. The Fischer mower doubles as a

sprayer, with deck-mounted nozzles able to apply herbicides or fertilisers during mowing, saving separate operations. Lighter cultivations have also been carried out by the 7840 and the tractor did all the vine spraying, towing an air-assisted sprayer. “Using full-size tractors, we got away without investing heavily in specialist vineyard machinery,” said David. “For subsoiling and mole draining we need something powerful, but operating our 1.3m Rotavator and other equipment of similar width behind the New Holland 7840 meant the tractor was wider than the implements, and its weight added to the compaction problem, especially as front ballast was needed.” Applying fungicides and pesticides to the vines is time-critical. “In a vineyard 24 hours is a long time,” commented David. “As the grapes near ripeness for harvest; insect infestations or fungal diseases can cause significant damage quickly so the sprayer is on permanent standby. However, we weren’t completely happy with our air-assisted sprayer as leaf coverage wasn’t reliable, a lot of chemical was wasted and it had to spray up every row which was time-consuming, so we looked for an alternative.” A Lipco recycling sprayer was chosen, with claimed chemical savings up to 40 per cent. Pairs of vertical booms each side of the tractor allow two rows of vines to be sprayed at each pass, and allow travel up alternate rows saving time. Powerful fans inside the booms create an air vortex ensuring

the leaves are thoroughly covered by the fine mist from the nozzles. Chemical which doesn’t attach to leaves is drawn back in to the booms and captured, then re-applied.

Design brings benefits “While investing in the new sprayer we decided it was time to purchase a more suitable tractor,” said David. “The old one was becoming less reliable and we just can’t afford breakdowns because operations are so time-critical, so we looked at potential replacements.” Three tractor brands were considered and, along with price, a significant factor was availability of after-sales service. “We are in the heart of Ernest Doe country,” said Jane. “The dealer has an excellent reputation and we already knew the team well as they supply and look after a lot of our farm machinery including our New Holland 90-90 combine. We needed 4wd, and

plenty of power for the new sprayer and the 110hp T4-110F appeared to offer better value for money than competitors so we placed an order and were offered the use of the dealer’s own demonstrator while awaiting delivery.” The new tractor arrived in June and the Flemings are delighted with their decision. “It’s proving ideal,” said David. “Manoeuvrability is excellent with SuperSteer which provides a 75-degree steering angle, allowing us to work consecutive rows rather than having to alternate and come back to the rows missed. Because our vines are wide spaced, we specified the widest tyre option for plenty of grip and reduced ground pressure and, with the T4-110F less than half the weight of the 7840, we should see a big reduction in compaction.” David commented that the new cab is comfortable with well laid out controls and large windows. It’s pressurised with both Cat 2 and Cat 4 filtration allowing the user to select the more intensive setting when needed for spraying and he said that although it’s not as spacious as his large farm tractors, it’s still a good operator environment. Ernest Doe area sales manager Derek Peck sold the tractor and said he was certain the specification selected would prove ideal. “It’s less than half the weight of the 7840 but has slightly more power and the 4wd will be useful on some of the farm’s slopes, particularly with the new sprayer. New Holland is known for superb reliability, but if there are any issues the Flemings know we are just 10 minutes away and will make sure the tractor is working again quickly.” ■

Small but mighty tractor The new Landini Rex 4 Series tractors will be centre-stage on the Horsepower UK stand at the National Fruit Show on October 24 and 25. Kent based Horsepower UK supplies the Landini 2 Series compact, Rex 4 Series orchard and larger agricultural tractors as well as the Wanner orchard sprayers, Valpadana specialist fruit tractors, Humus orchard mowers and SALF orchard access machinery. The new-generation Landini Rex 4 tractors on display represent a range of compact but powerful and durable power units with 7 power outputs from 70-112hp and an all-new transmission designed and engineered by Landini manufacturer

Argo Tractors. Options include three-speed powershift, enabling operators to quickly change ground speed when towing or working soilengaging implements without losing momentum. Fingertip power shuttle shifting between forward and reverse also makes life easier and more comfortable for the operator, while new Eco PTO gearing and Eco 40kph transmission options help fuel consumption by lowering engine speeds in work and during transport. Larger fuel tanks reduce fill-up frequency and the hydraulics package has been given a boost with a 78-litres/min standard set-up,

including 28-litres/min dedicated to steering. This can be upgraded to a triple pump installation. Up to 3,400kg of lift capacity is available at the rear and a 1,400kg front linkage assembly is also available. Add an innovative

four-speed PTO with fuel-saving lower engine speeds, a front axle suspension option to cushion the front end of the tractor, and availability of GPS-guided auto steering, Landini says the Rex 4 is a small but very advanced package. ■

New date announced for Fruit Focus 2019 Fruit Focus, a leading technical event for the fruit industry, is returning to NIAB’s East Malling Research, in Kent on July 17th 2019, one week earlier than in previous years. “The new date falls before the

start of the school holidays and parliamentary recess. Not only does this make it easier for visitors and exhibitors to attend, it also means we’re more able to secure the attendance of key politicians and industry legislators,” explains

Fruit Focus event director Jon Day. Attracting over 1,200 growers and industry professionals, 46 of last year's 115 exhibitors have already rebooked for 2019, including: AHDB, Bayer, Berry Gardens, Haygrove, James

Hutton, MorePeople, and Yara. Jon Day, adds: “Fruit Focus is a unique opportunity for the UK fruit and viticulture industries to review the latest technological and scientific advances, and network with fellow professionals.”

Livestock Limited grass growth has created additional work this year, feeding round bale silage. Having the Luxxum available has relieved pressure on the farm’s own tractors, allowing them to remain at sites away from the main yard.

abundance of stock for sale due to the feed shortage, which has reduced prices generally. The sheep are brought down to the lower land for winter and spring but in the summer they graze outlying land at Menwith Hill. “On the higher ground a little more rain meant the grass fared better so the sheep were ok, but as the drought continued they became short of feed,” said business partner David Bradley who is responsible for the sheep. “Recent rain improved things but we could do with a lot more. The lambs aren’t as fat as they should be by this time of year. They have grown but need lush grass to finish them off so we will have to sell them later than usual. The ewes are healthy and a benefit of the dry weather has been good flock health generally as flies haven’t been an issue.”

Luxxum winners make the most of their prize

Added flexibility

Since taking delivery of its Case IH Luxxum in May, the Walton family which farms at Glasshouses, North Yorkshire has been making the most of its competition prize. David Williams reports. JS Walton & Co won 6 months’ use of the 107hp Luxxum 110 and front loader in a competition run jointly by Case IH and Farmers Guide earlier this year. The farming business is based at Stockplains Farm and has livestock at three different sites several miles apart, including dairy and beef herds and a large flock of sheep, so there is plenty

to keep the tractor fleet busy. Like most farming businesses this year, the weather had a significant affect on the farm’s activities with the hard, late winter giving way to a brief spring and then a hot, dry summer during which the lack of rain had created grass shortages. Speaking in August, Daniel Walton said only one tqThe loader has been praised by the Waltons for its lifting capacity.

cut of silage had been achieved to date, rather than two expected by the same time in an average year and with so little rain, everything was “a good two months behind”. The dairy herd is grazed close to the main farm buildings and parlour on some of the lower grassland which suffered badly from the drought. However, supplementing the grass with this winter’s silage was maintaining milk yields. “We haven’t really had an option,” explained Daniel. “Obviously feeding first cut silage now isn’t what we want to be doing and will result in a shortage later, but if we don’t feed it we risk declining cow condition and lower milk yields which will reduce profits. “What we are doing seems to be working well; the herd is healthy and yields are generally where they should be,” he added. Heifers and store cattle have done well at the local markets despite an

The farm’s tractor fleet comprises two modern main tractors and an older smaller tractor with a JCB Loadall used for materials handling. When the Luxxum arrived it was hoped that the additional modern tractor would add flexibility and improve farm efficiency, especially with its 40kph transmission reducing transport time between work locations. By August the Luxxum had clocked up just over 200 hours, much of it spent on the road although field tasks had included mowing for silage, grass tedding, muck spreading with side and rear-discharge spreaders, slurry application, bale loading and transport, and general yard tasks. Steep hills are encountered on most road trips which means all the available power is utilised and Daniel commented that the tractor is quick on the road, although additional power would be a benefit when trailers and spreaders were fully loaded. “We dropped down through 16 gears to climb a steep hill with the Bunning continued over...

spreader loaded with 8–10t of manure, so later runs were with a smaller load. “It’s new though and I think it’s beginning to loosen up a bit and improve.” The Luxxum’s transmission is more sophisticated than the Waltons require and Daniel said that the gear-matching function which automatically selects an appropriate gear for the travel speed and engine revs, sometimes drops to a lower gear than he would like, taking the operator by surprise when pulling away.

Excellent ride Cab suspension is described as very effective and the ride is comfortable, despite David’s initial fears that the

relatively short wheelbase would make it choppy. “Its ride comfort surprised me,” he commented. “It’s a compact tractor designed to work in tight spaces but comfort on the road and in the yard is really good, and better than on our own larger tractors.” The passenger seat is used frequently and described as adequate with enough space available to prevent the occupant obstructing the driver. Visibility is excellent with narrow pillars creating few blind spots and being able to see right down to the trailer hitch through the rear window is an advantage. The rear quarter windows can be opened, a feature David really likes as he says they provide excellent ventilation. The air conditioning is effective but on the hottest days it struggled to compensate for the extensive glass area, he explained, adding that additional cool air outlets in the roof would be a benefit, as the Luxxum’s are all at waist level. Cab access through the left door is good, with a large, unobstructed opening, and the right door can also be used although the control armrest has to be folded clear. The loader performs well. “It’s

a good, strong loader,” said Daniel. “Removing it was difficult at first as the new pins were tight in the brackets but it has been on and off a few times now, the pins come out more easily so it takes just a few minutes. Having the additional loader tractor is very handy. It’s not been parked up much and we bought an additional round bale grab to make the most of it for bale handling this season.” Loader control is by electronic joystick and he commented it has taken a lot of getting used to, compared with the mechanical loader control on the farm’s other tractor. “The Luxxum’s loader is very quick with rapid cycle times and for field bale loading it was ideal,” he commented.

For yard work the compact size and excellent visibility make the tractor ideal, although with the largest tyre option fitted, the turning circle is compromised. Daily checks are all easy to carry out and take just a few minutes, said David, adding that the engine oil continued over...

Economical operation David said that the Luxxum is extremely fuel efficient although Adblue consumption can be higher than expected. “Features such as the economy PTO mode allow lighter tasks such as tedding at lower revs and that not only saves fuel, but also makes it much quieter for the user.” Hydraulic performance is described as good and setting it to suit the application is easy.

David Bradley said the Luxxum is proving very economical, and using much less fuel than expected.

The economy PTO mode proved useful for tedding grass ahead of baling. Fuel use and noise levels were reduced.

dipstick is easy to access despite the loader brackets. Overall the Luxxum continues to impress, with its excellent visibility, good ride and quiet, comfortable cab. The level of technology available through the Multicontroller armrest and display is more than required by

the farm for most tasks and all the main users agree that this means they aren’t familiar with the menus and settings available, so don’t always make the most of the tractor’s performance. “Because we tend to rely on only two main tractors most of the time, we have really noticed the difference

having the addition of the Luxxum this year,” explained David. “The drought has created additional work, including carrying round bales out to the field to supplement the grass, and without the Luxxum there would have been much more running around between the farms for our own two tractors. Having it has been really handy.” ■

2019 forage maize Descriptive Lists launched Seven new first-choice varieties have been added to the British Society of Plant Breeder’s 2019 Forage Maize Descriptive Lists (DL), alongside one new second-choice variety. The varieties Cito KWS and Avitus KWS (from KWS), LG31218 and Pinnacle from Limagrain, Cranberri CS from Caussade Semences, Expedia from AIC and Madonias from MAS have been added to the Favourable Sites DL. Cito KWS, Avitus KWS, Madonias and Pinnacle were also added as first choice varieties to the Less Favourable DL, aimed at ‘marginal’ growing conditions, reports BSPB. The 2019 Lists provide a range of varieties for farmers to select from, with parameters including dry matter yield, starch and digestibility, in relation to favourable or less favourable growing conditions within the suitable maturity range for the farm location. This diversity allows selection of varieties that best suit the grower’s needs, adds the organisation. NIAB’s forage crop specialist Ellie Sweetman highlights the range of maturity covered with the new varieties, offering growers an increased

choice to select from. “Cito KWS is the earliest maturing of the new first choice DL additions, with a 37.4% dry matter content at harvest and both the highest metabolisable energy (ME) and highest starch on the list at 11.82 MJ/kg DM and 37.6% respectively. Cranberri CS is the latest maturing at 29.5%, while achieving a very good dry matter yield of 18.3t/ha and good cell wall digestibility at 58.5%.”

Dry matter yield

Top of the List for dry matter yield, LG31218 is a later maturing variety for favourable sites, combining excellent yield potential (18.7t DM/ha) with a highly digestible cell wall score of 59.6%. Avitus KWS is a good all-rounder with excellent yields (18.5t DM/ha) for its maturity (35.5% DM), producing good ME at harvest (11.63 MJ/kg DM) with very good standing power scores. “Pinnacle provides a very good ME and starch content for its high dry matter, with a good eyespot rating. Expedia has very good standing power, while providing good yields with good ME and starch levels. Madonias is a good all-rounder, providing good ME

and starch for mid-range maturity,” adds Ms Sweetman. A high ME variety is more digestible than those with lower scores, with consequently faster rumen throughput, allowing for increased voluntary feed intake and improved feed conversion. “Higher cell wall digestibility can help support butterfat levels in dairy cows, whereas higher starch can reduce requirements for concentrate feeds, a more cost effective option for many beef producers,” says Ms Sweetman.

Less-favourable sites

Ms Sweetman highlights the diversity in maturity offered by the four varieties – Cito, Avitus, Madonias and Pinnacle – added to the first-choice Less Favourable DL. With the new varieties showing a good range in maturity scores she believes growers have good flexibility in their variety selection process. “Growers are looking for highly digestible, good quality silage plus early vigour; often an undervalued

character in more challenging conditions where the ability of a variety to demonstrate vigorous early growth is particularly important. The new varieties are good all-rounders with yield potentials of between 16.1–18.4t DM/ha, combined with good starch and reasonable ME yields. Pinnacle shows a very good eyespot resistance profile compared with other varieties on the less-favourable List, a valuable asset in susceptible areas during normal growing conditions.” The BSPB 2019 ‘Forage Maize’ and ‘Forage Maize for AD’ Descriptive Lists are available to download from the BSPB and NIAB websites. ■

Features on combine harvesters, yield mapping and a report on the 21st Power in Action cultivations event were included in Farmers Guide October 1993. Doug Potts described how the first Massey Ferguson satellite yield mapping system to be sold in the UK had, with the aid of computer and printer, produced grain yield maps on a Cambridgeshire farm. The four colour map showed areas of the field where yields ranging from “less than 2.5t/acre up to 4t/acre” were harvested. A large number of tractors, ploughs and cultivation machinery were seen by the 3,000 plus farmers who went to the 21st Power in Action demonstration at Otley in Suffolk. A 280hp Caterpillar 75C Challenger with a 10f Dowdeswell plough was one of the more powerful tractors at work, while a Mercedes Unimog 1200 was doing good work with a 4f Dowdeswell Delta plough. Other tractors among the many makes and models at Power in Action included a Fendt 3959 TA 115hp systems tractor, and a 380hp Case IH 9280 with a 140,000 price tag. A special feature on combine harvesters included details of the

latest Z series John Deere machines, Case IH Axial-Flow models, as well as Deutz-Fahr Powerliner, Topliner and Starliner harvesters. Bonhill announced a new M.D.W Harvest Master from Germany, Claas offered the Mega 204 with APS for five payments of £13,000, and the latest New Holland TX66/TX68 models had the InfoView monitoring system in the cab. Farm machinery news reported that after its recent absence, John Deere had decided to take a stand at the forthcoming Royal Smithfield Show. This meant that although missing from earlier Smithfield Shows, almost all of the major tractor manufacturers would be at Earls Court in December. A number of new machines were reviewed in October 1993 Farmers Guide. They included a big square bale accumulator from Browns Agricultural Machinery and Kverneland announced a new four-in-one cultivator with subsoiling tines, spring tines and two gangs of discs. TIM GB announced the delivery of 6 trailed harvesters to a dealer in Norfolk, and Renault had added 52 and 67hp Herdsman tractors to its model range. The specification included a flat floor cab, 12-forward/ reverse gears and oil immersed disc brakes. A new fully automatic Opico mobile 12t capacity batch grain dryer, with an output of 150t in 24 hours, heated with LPG and requiring 3-phase electricity was priced at £2,986. The October editorial page noted that the “farmer bashing season” was here with British fruit farmers “digging holes to bury their unwanted pear crops” and Paris was “under siege” from French farmers burning straw on motorways. ■

Ransomes Hunter sugar beet harvester

The tank on the Ransomes Hunter beet combine had a capacity of 4.5t of harvested beet.

Apart from the horse drawn Beta sugar beet lifting ploughs made by Ransomes at Ipswich in the 1920s and 1930s, the company took no further interest in sugar beet machinery until it acquired Catchpole Engineering in 1968. At the time, Catchpole, at Stanton near Bury St Edmunds in Suffolk, was making the single row trailed Cadet harvester and developing the self-propelled Powerbeet; built around a Ford 4000 or an MF 165 tractor. The first Ransomes Powerbeet harvesters with Oppel wheel lifters and a 2.5t tank were sold with the familiar Catchpole orange paintwork. The 2-row self-propelled Ransomes Hunter beet combine, with a 4.5t tank and an output of 1.5 acres/hr, was launched at the 1974 Smithfield Show. As well as using a number of

components from the Ransomes Cavalier combine harvester, the Hunter had hydraulically variable speeds in each of the four forward and one reverse gears, and indicator lights in the cab warned the driver of blockages in the beet conveying systems. As part of its launch programme, Ransomes demonstrated the Hunter in four countries in mainland Europe and by the end of the tour the demonstration team had driven more than 6,000 miles. The Hunter and 33B trailed harvester were still in production in 1980 when, for the first time, Ransomes imported the Danish-built TIM trailed harvesters. Agrolux, which acquired the Ransomes farm machinery business in 1987, also marketed TIM sugar beet harvesters.

In addition, because we recognise that you are among the most important people in agriculture, we offer free advertising for farmers and contractors in the magazine and online.
