Out & About with the Farmers Guide editors

Graham Henderson (1941–2019) Graham pictured at the Suffolk Show in 2016 having received a Suffolk Agricultural Association Special Award for services to Agriculture.

It is with immense sadness that we pass on the news to you that our long-serving columnist, colleague and friend Graham Henderson has died. Graham was diagnosed with a brain tumour just a few weeks ago, and passed away peacefully at his Felixstowe home, Suffolk on Thursday 18th of July. Graham started his ‘Grain and Fertiliser Gossip’ column in August 1991 and continued to share his considerable knowledge of the grain and fertiliser markets with our readers right up until the June edition this year – all in all, a 28-year stint! Graham was born in Sleaford, Lincolnshire and gained his NDA at Essex Institute of Agriculture before working for Eastern Counties Farmers in 1964. In 1967 he moved to Shellstar Fertilisers, later to become UKF, then Kemira, GrowHow and, today, CF

Fertilisers. In 1989 he joined CK Squirrell & Sons, later to become part of Muntons plc, as a farm trader. While working for that organisation at the Suffolk Show in 1991, he began chatting to Farmers Guide founder and former editor, Doug Potts, who suggested that readers of the magazine would benefit from his extensive knowledge and experience courtesy of a regular monthly column. Graham went on to be an independent buying agent for cereal crops, specialising in malting barley as well as trading solid, liquid and suspension fertilisers, and remained closely involved with these markets until his recent illness. His first column in August 1991 focused on the weather, a recurring theme throughout his 28 years of contributions. June that year had been very wet after a long dry spell, he commented, and news within the cereals market was a likely £20/t premium for milling wheat over feed. His comments on fertiliser in that edition included his prediction that Nitram would be available at 15.5p/ unit, with payment due the following year. On the 20th anniversary of his column (in 2011) Graham said that the task of writing for Farmers Guide’s readership hadn’t become any easier with the magazine’s expansion to a national publication sent to 30,000

farms, but he was determined to make sure the information he imparted was of relevance to all, of which it duly was. Graham’s lifelong love of rugby also crept into his columns to the extent that, in more recent years, ‘Rugby Ramblings’ became a permanent fixture, with cricket also getting a mention now and again. Having a close relationship with many of our readers, he would often have his leg pulled when his score predictions were wrong, just as when cereal prices may have differed to those that he forecast. From time to time Farmers Guide undertakes readership research when exhibiting at technical events such as Lamma or Cereals, and when the question is asked as to what do readers enjoy most about their favourite farming magazine, “Henders” usually came out near the top. All of us here at Farmers Guide will miss him very much. Donations to RNLI Harwich or Felixstowe Sailing Club would be gratefully received.

Power to his pen Farmers Guide machinery editor David Williams is pictured (right) at a London hotel receiving an award from Perkins’ Andy Curtis for an article published in the October 2018 edition. The annual Perkins Power on the Farm Award is made by Perkins in conjunction with the British Guild of Agricultural Journalists (BGAJ) for an article with a power-related theme published in the preceding 12 months. David’s entry focused on a Kent family

farm which invested in second-hand precision farming equipment. Working with the support of a local dealer the strategy proved successful improving accuracy and increasing productivity at significantly less cost than if a new system had been purchased. The report attracted a great deal of interest from the magazine’s readers across the UK. Along with a cash prize, David enjoyed a meal at a London Hotel at the table of celebrity chef Marcus Wareing. “The Perkins award is in its 47th year and attracts many entries so I was especially pleased that my article appealed to the judges. With the other winners plus representatives from the BGAJ and Perkins I enjoyed an excellent day out and was proud to see our magazine recognised in this way.”

And finally… Will return next month.

Cultivation decisions for black-grass control Mr Chappell is hoping to reduce blackgrass levels on his farm with less soil disturbance when establishing wheat.

not going to create a profitable and sufficiently clean crop. “The challenge with cultivation is that you are trying to achieve several things at once,” says Mr Coombs. “You need to prepare a seedbed for a competitive crop but also create conditions where black-grass can be controlled through late drilling and effective applications of herbicides.”

A flexible approach

The weeks straight after harvest are a crucial time for black-grass control. Choosing the correct cultivation strategy is essential to reduce black-grass numbers in the following crop and give herbicides the best chance to be effective. “Population management is the key principle for black-grass control and understanding the blackgrass population in your field is the first step,” says Bayer’s Ben Coombs (right). “Knowing how much seed is in the seedbank and where it is in the soil profile determine which cultivation options are best for reducing the size of the seedbank.” Recent years have seen a shift to much shallower cultivations ahead of cereals. Ideally, only the top 50mm of soil are cultivated so that newly-shed black-grass seed remains in the germination zone and is not buried at depth. Cultivation also stimulates black-grass chitting in late September and early October, 6

which can be sprayed off with Roundup (glyphosate) before drilling. Shallow cultivation is particularly valuable on land with a large seedbank. Deeper noninversion cultivation can spread seed from different seasons to different depths in the soil. This poses a bigger challenge to herbicides such as Liberator (flufenacet + diflufenican) because plants germinate from different depths at different times making it harder to target control measures. The alternative to shallow cultivation is ploughing which, if done effectively, buries seeds deep in the soil where they degrade over time. Most importantly, the soil at depth being brought to the surface must be clean. Also, it is a vital ‘reset button’ so it should be used judiciously when other options are

Soil and cultivation specialist Philip Wright believes that farmers should be flexible in the exact approach they take but try to keep a few basic principles in mind. “Don’t plan on the back of last season,” says Mr Wright. “The right decision depends on the conditions in the field. But always factor in previous seasons’ cultivations to understand the blackgrass seedbank.” Growers should keep in mind that delayed drilling is a vital tool to control black-grass, so cultivation needs to maximise the possible drilling window and allow seedbeds to be in good condition in mid-October. “On heavy soils, late drilling relies on good structure and moisture management to prevent waterlogging and slumping. If possible, take advantage of good soil structure from the previous crop and aim to do as little as possible rather than move lots of soil,” he says. According to Mr Wright, drilling has to be lower disturbance than any preceding cultivation to prevent more black-grass germination. Late drilling can also pose a risk for soil compaction from the drill tractor which in turn produces conditions where black-grass can outcompete wheat so it is worth all farms reviewing tyre pressures at drilling to get them as low as possible. These principles also apply should the delay extend into spring – where a cover crop could also then be used to assist natural structuring. Here, managing the cover canopy to avoid a dense cover ahead of spring drilling is vital.

updating his system to deal with it. “Because of how we managed it in the past we’ve got a fairly big seedbank. Added to that we have resistance and highly organic soils which lock up chemistry so we had to look in more detail at cultural controls,” he says. On his worst land he has shifted to successive spring crops to take control of the situation. Black-grass plant counts are down to around 2 per m2 in this year’s spring barley which followed a spring wheat. To check the benefit of spring crops he also drilled a 1ha strip of winter wheat in a 6ha field. The level of black-grass in the winter crop is much higher after receiving a robust residual programme after being drilled on the 15th November, showing that the decision to grow a spring crop was right. Mr Chappell is using shallow cultivation as a stepping-stone to direct drilling but knows it is a longterm process. At present, cultivation is needed to create the seedbed in addition to stimulating black-grass germination. He currently uses a Vaderstad Rapid strip drill which is relatively low disturbance while trying to improve soils before making the next step. Because of his location and heavy land, harvests tend to be relatively late with the combine still working in September. Consequently, he often cultivates soon after combining but with only 4–6 weeks until delayed drilling of wheat. Shallow and low disturbance is essential to make this work but sometimes conditions work against him. “We sometimes need to subsoil to sort out the problems caused by combining but this can stimulate black-grass. I think that, as soil improves, we will need to do much less of this type of cultivation which is repairing the damage we caused.” Overall, Mr Chappell is optimistic that more savvy cultivation combined with spring crops has got his farm in much better condition. ■

Shallow when possible North Lincolnshire farmer Colin Chappell (right) has adopted shallow cultivation whenever possible across his 650ha of crops. His realisation that black-grass was a serious problem came a little later than some others but he has wasted no time in

Giving your crops a super start It could be argued that successful crop establishment in the UK has never been more important than it is now. Dominic Kilburn visits two farmers who are hoping that the trial of a starter fertiliser on their farms will point the way to improved establishment across a range of crops and, ultimately, better yields. Think cereals and black-grass, think oilseed rape and flea beetle, think sugar beet and virus yellows – just a few of the current challenges arable farmers are facing when they set about drilling their crops each season. Add into the mix weather extremes and crop protection product revocations, and you begin to realise how critical it can be to get crops established successfully each autumn and spring. Placing fertiliser in the seedbed to give crops a boost is nothing new; growers up and down the country have been doing it for decades with combined seed/fertiliser drills, but there appears to be a renewed interest in starter fertilisers particularly in light of the increased area of cropping established via direct drilling over the past 10 years. JS Tech launched its starter fertiliser Super Start onto the UK market last autumn to provide essential nutrients immediately to the developing plant. As well as phosphorus (35%) and nitrogen

(10%), it contains sulphur (5%), zinc (2%) and magnesium (2%), with the aim of encouraging root development and boosting establishment, says the company, which is expecting substantial interest initially for maize, potatoes and oilseed rape, as well as spring cereals, vegetables and sugar beet. Where JS Tech believes its product has a distinct advantage over conventional granular starter fertilisers is that it is more quickly available to the growing seed, says JS Tech’s managing director, Simon Stell. “The product is placed in the soil right next to the seed and with granules of between 0.5–1.2mm, Super Start has a surface area 300 times that of conventional granular starter fertilisers, such as DAP and MAP, ensuring a faster release and quick availability following autumn or spring sowing,” he says. According to Mr Stell, Super Start is used across 600,000ha in Europe and South America. “It’s already very popular with

maize growers where the wide rows make taking the fertiliser to the seed especially effective. It is not only placed right where it is needed, but also saves the cost, labour and logistics of a separate spreading operation.” In addition, he says that application rates are low as accurate placement means less is needed, run-off is reduced and therefore cost benefits result. “Lower rates of active ingredients reduce leaching of P and N into waterways and help meet NVZ limits,” he points out.

Suffolk grower In partnership with his mother Sylvia and sister Joy, Pip Partridge farms 330ha of arable cropping at Witnesham, a few miles to the north of Ipswich, where 90 per cent of crops are established via no-till since converting to the system in spring 2015. Wheat, barley, rye for combining and beans make up most of the winter cropping while spring barley, winter oats (drilled in the spring) are grown on contract with ADM. Some winter linseed was grown last season but out of the 40ha drilled, only half established – the crop not taking kindly to being drilled into trash or being attacked by pigeons, suggests Mr Partridge. Oilseed rape is a notable absentee from the predominantly heavy land farm – issues with flea beetle exacerbating establishment difficulties and affecting yields. “That

said, we’ve never been a big oilseed rape growing farm as, historically, we grew crops for animal rations and recent attempts to make progress with the crop post-neonic seed treatments have proved difficult,” he explained. Last year Mr Partridge used a starter fertiliser for the first time. “Because we are ‘no-tilling’, we are always looking at different things to get crops off to a good start – we don’t get sufficient mineralisation of N through cultivations, and so crops need something else to help get them up and away quickly. “Last autumn the wheat looked very well with fertiliser placed alongside the seed, but then again everything looked good last autumn,” he stressed. “JS Tech suggested we tried some Super Start for this season as an alternative, and so we did with 4ha of Laureate spring barley drilled on loamy land, following a failed crop of linseed, and also with 4ha of Mascani winter oats, drilled in the spring.”

Spring challenge Mr Partridge said that one of the key elements of having spring crops in the rotation is to help with the control of black-grass. “Spring crop establishment is probably the biggest challenge for us with our system; cover crops go hand-in-hand with no-till but it does mean drilling in the spring for us typically doesn’t get underway until the 2nd or 3rd week continued over...

...from previous page

in April, following cover crops such as tillage and forage radish, vetch, mustard and rye being sprayed off in January or February. “This is fine in a more normal year, but the past three springs have been exceptionally dry, which puts further emphasis on trying to give crops a helping hand to get them away as quickly as possible,” noted Mr Partridge. “With conventional establishment systems however, cover crops are ripped up in the autumn and spring drilling can start earlier, but because cover crops are part of our EFA, the earliest we spray off is mid January, and so it delays drilling a little,” he added.

Dry conditions Both the oats and spring barley crops containing the Super Start trial blocks were drilled into very dry conditions (31st March and 7th April respectively); the oats also receiving 40kg/ha of single super phosphate fertiliser down the spout, as well as the Super Start. At the time of Farmers Guide’s visit on the 22nd May, there had been little rain since drilling and a dig down to root level within the oat trial revealed prills from the phosphate fertiliser still remaining, 52 days after drill date.

With granules of between 0.5–1.2mm, Super Start has a surface area 300 times that of conventional granular starter fertilisers, such as DAP, ensuring a faster release and quick availability following autumn or spring sowing, says JS Tech.

By contrast there was no evidence of Super Start, which Simon Stell attributes to the product’s greater surface area and therefore quicker breakdown, even in dry conditions. Although the entire crop had established well, at that early stage of the season it was hard to see any significant root development differences when comparing oat plants with and without the Super Start. However in the barley trial, root mass development where Super Start had been applied was notably greater. “Yield at harvest will of course give us a better idea of how the trial has gone,” continued Mr Partridge, adding that the economics of Super Start can be judged properly at that stage. “When you start doing costings and compare it with a half rate of DAP then it might be perceived to be more expensive, but because of the concentration of a Super Start dose at 25kg/ha, and being put in the right place, you are getting more value for money and there’s also less product to manage.” Mr Partridge believes that Super Start could play a very important role for the future, particularly on the farm’s heavier boulder clay land where pH levels can be high and responsible for locking up the available phosphorus. “And if you spread phosphorus on the surface rather than incorporate it, then it takes a long time to get down through the soil to the crop’s roots, so a product that is already there and available when the crop needs it makes sense,” he said. “With no-till we are trying to encourage soil biology and are still to be convinced that starter fertiliser is the right option to encourage the interaction between the plant and the soil flora and fauna that will unlock unavailable phosphate. As we are in the early stages of transition I am keen to see if it helps our system. We haven’t lost moisture through cultivations and weeds have not been woken up – and having phosphate readily available from the start makes up for reduced soil nutrient mineralisation. “Anything you can do for the rooting the better and the zinc in Super Start will play a part too,” he continues. “Because we are placing the nutrition very close to the seed rooting zone,

 Increased root mass is clear to see with Super Start-treated spring barley (left) compared with untreated in both pictures.

a higher percentage of product is in the right area compared with other seedbed fertilisers,” adds Mr Partridge. “I can see that it has improved the consistency of establishment in the spring, as well as helping crops to drought better, and yield results at harvest will be interesting. “If I go back into rape again however, I’ll certainly use a starter fertiliser in the autumn and I will think about it for autumn wheat too,” he concluded.

Direct drilling beet Also in Suffolk, Steve Taylor (below) has been placing fertiliser in the seedbed with oilseed rape for the past three years, and this is the second season of placing it in the row when direct drilling sugar beet. Mr Taylor farms approximately 340ha at Rogers Farm, Boxford in addition to two other contract farming arrangements in the area. Cropping on mainly sandy loam includes winter wheat, oilseed rape, winter barley,

spring barley, peas and sugar beet. In 2016 he began switching from a traditional establishment system to a zero-till regime using a Weaving GD drill, to establish winter combinable crops by drilling direct into stubble. That same year however he also invested in a 3m Sfoggia Sigma 5 drill with the aim of direct drilling any crop that required precision drilling, but also to have the ability to place fertiliser at the same time to give crops a “timely boost”. Since then the drill has completed approximately 400ha of direct drilling in three seasons, planting crops continued over...

In what was an exceptionally dry spring in Suffolk, there appeared to be a slight increase in root mass development seen in picture 1 (the Super Start-treated sugar beet plant on the right), five weeks after drilling. By early July (picture 2, right-hand plant) the increase in root size and leaf biomass of treated plants was noticeable. ...from previous page

including pumpkin, maize, sunflower, oilseed rape and sugar beet. “This is the third season of direct drilling sugar beet with the drill and we’ve been developing the system,” said Mr Taylor. “If I’m honest, last season was the first time we ‘truly’ direct drilled beet – it’s been a case of refining the cultivator on the drill as we’ve gone along.” He says that patience is key, particularly when direct drilling beet into cover crops; the top 2–3in of the soil needs to be drier than one might think otherwise smearing can occur, he explained. “Yields last year matched the factory average which I was pretty pleased with. We might not be achieving top yields right now but the system is preserving moisture and soil health, and a benefit of direct drilling can really be seen at harvest,” he continued. “There were times when it was wet last harvest and if the beet had been established conventionally we wouldn’t have been able to lift the

crop without the harvester making a real mess. “But because we had direct drilled the beet, the ground was hard and harvesting was relatively easy,” said Mr Taylor. “I would like to think that cover crops are helping the soil in their own right too; now we are not leaving land over winter for soil to leach,” he added.

Farm trial Like Mr Partridge, Steve Taylor was approached by JS Tech to see if he’d try Super Start as part of his direct drilling regime, but this time on sugar beet, and so a trial was set up for spring 2019. The chosen site received a variable rate P&K in February before a section of it was divided into 3 X 30m width strips and drilled with Betaseed variety BTS 1140 (marketed by Limagrain) on the 12th April. The first strip was seed-only, the second was seed drilled with Super Start-only and the third contained a

placed fertiliser (160kg/ha of 28-13-0) to the side and below the seed. The whole field, including the trial plots also received 75kg of nitrogen broadcast at crop emergence. As an addition, a second field close by was drilled with KWS Sabatina along with a half-rate of Super Start plus placed fertiliser, compared with placed fertiliser on its own. Speaking to Farmers Guide recently, Mr Taylor said that while there may have been a slight difference in plant sizes when making early comparisons between plots during what turned out to be a variable, drought-affected establishment period through April and much of May, by early July (with crops at the 10-leaf stage) there was certainly an increase in leaf biomass and root size of those crops treated with Super Start, compared with those without. “Plants without Super Start were smaller around the petiole and it’s fair to say that there were more lateral roots on Super Start-treated

plants too,” he pointed out. “Harvest will determine whether these slight visual differences result in an increase in yield compared with those not treated with Super Start, and I also hope to get some compaction root tests and sugar yield comparisons, as well as any yield differences,” said Mr Taylor. With the aim of doing as much as he can within a single pass, Mr Taylor has been applying seedbed fertiliser in the row with a variety of crops for the past two years while direct drilling, and with the establishment challenges currently facing oilseed rape, he said he might try some Super Start on crops this autumn. “It’s about moving oilseed rape through the growth stages as quickly as possible with readily available fertiliser, without having to come back and apply more N when there are other things to be doing,” he concluded. ■

At time of writing feed Barley ex-farm November is priced £30/t lower than milling wheat with perhaps 2t/ha yield deficit. The patented Triton Seed drill has allowed farmers on heavy clay soils with black grass to return to a full winter sown wheat and rape rotation due to unrivalled capability for late season drilling. Direct or into a seed bed the Triton drill and with the benefits of late season drilling can deliver dramatic savings in fixed and variable costs whilst creating the highest potential returns from a combinable crop rotation. Ideal to direct drill behind a beet harvester and also drills maize unmetered but separated. Finance available from £15,750 ex seed tank UK manufactured.

Could later drilling reduce the risk of growing oilseed rape? The current threshold for cabbage stem flea beetle (CSFB) larvae of five per oilseed rape plant before the pest is considered to impact yields is based on trial data from the 1980s. Four decades on, with the industry still reeling from the loss of neonicotinoid seed treatments, reports of up to 80 larvae per OSR plant have been recorded. At a recent BASF and ADAS meeting, the feasible hypothesis that later sowing of OSR – well into September – could markedly reduce the threat of CSFB was explored. While there are many practical workload ramifications during this crucial month, if delaying crop emergence until after the adult CSFB migration (typically in late August), allows a future for this important break crop, then maybe this change in approach is essential. Speaking at the meeting were ADAS senior research entomologist, Dr Sacha White (right) and plant pathologist, Dr Faye Ritchie, along with BASF’s agronomic services manager, Dr Carol Norris.

Enemy number one Dr White described CSFB as “grower enemy number one” which at AICC’s estimation of the damage at 11 per cent of the UK crop currently in the ground (which is now likely to be an underestimation), the crop losses would equate to a conservative £79 million. The late-drilling hypothesis is that later sown crops avoid some important CSFB life-cycle timings (see table over page). A host of different ADAS and BASF trials show that some varieties suffer a lower

yield penalty than others when drilled late, which may be more than compensated for by reduced CSFB damage. “The recommendation in recent years has been for early drilling, the theory being that well established, vigorous crops are better able to withstand adult flea beetle damage by the time CSFB migration occurs in late August. “What many don’t appreciate is that larvae can have a greater impact on yield than the adult beetle damage,” he suggested. Drilling later – from the start through to the end of September – is the only agronomic factor that has been found in modelling work to have a consistently positive success rate for pest escape, according to Dr White (see Graph 1 over page). “September timing avoids the adult flea beetle migration and therefore later arrival and egg laying, together with cooler temperatures means slower egg development and lower levels of larval damage,” he added.

feeding and larval damage than others), defoliating by mowing or grazing and planting varieties with more vigorous growth habits in the spring and autumn. The ‘trap crop’ trials showed the benefit of doing nothing for a month post-harvest, with Dr White recording up to 89 per cent fewer adults, 74 per cent less adult damage, 39 per cent more plants

and 67 per cent fewer larvae. “What’s interesting about the ‘trap crop’ is that this capitalises on a biological quirk of adult beetles, which is that once they have migrated, they gradually lose their wing muscles over several weeks, so they won’t migrate again.” The defoliation trials – mown in December, January and March – showed a reduction in larvae

BASF’s Dr Carol Norris spoke about the impact of delayed drilling on yield and gross output, and cited work that she had been involved in with ADAS using older varieties. “The crops were drilled on the 9th and 17th of September, what we found was that the yield of the hybrid variety Fencer was least affected by the later drilling. There was an average yield loss of 1.4t/ ha for conventional varieties when drilled later but Fencer only lost 0.5t/ha at the later drill date. The hybrids all performed much better than conventional, open pollinated varieties in late-drilled situations. “The trials also showed that the variety that developed the largest green area index (GAI) in November and December (Fencer) when sown late also achieved the optimum spring canopy and seed set in the spring,” she noted. Further work at another site with three drilling dates supports this and shows that a very vigorous variety such as Fencer will lose less

yield than conventional varieties when drilled well into September (see Graph 2). BASF’s InVigor portfolio now has varieties with even better autumn vigour than Fencer, so these are well suited to drilling in September. Dr Ritchie added her views on the consequences of later drilling. She said that clubroot and light leaf spot control might be less of an issue, while phoma stem canker could be a greater concern. “Phoma risk is linked to leaf size. The larger a leaf is, the longer it takes the fungus to grow through

Bad year “It is clear that this year has been particularly bad because we’ve had the perfect storm for flea beetle, a dry summer and autumn during which plants were slow to grow away, followed by a mild winter and spring that encouraged adult beetles to carry on laying eggs,” Dr White said.

With limited, effective chemical control options, including a rise in the incidence of pyrethroid resistance in the east of England, the Midlands and as far west as the tip of Cornwall, cultural options are where we need to be looking for CSFB avoidance he noted. “I’ve heard of growers spraying pyrethroids up to nine times; my advice is that if the first one, or two, sprays don’t have any affect, then further applications are pointless, and, compounding the problem, they will kill a range of beneficial insects that could help to control the pest.” ■

Black-grass is an annual challenge and a long-term one too. Small increases in control can have big rewards. 95.5% control can keep populations stable, but an integrated weed management programme that reaches 97% control can reduce populations by over 30% in a year*1.

Highlander ZC boosts early OSR growth Applying a novel zinc complex biostimulant to oilseed rape plants before they reach the six-true leaf stage significantly improves plant growth leading to bigger plants with more developed root systems. The benefits of which can be seen in increased vigour and, ultimately, higher yields. Trials carried out by ADAS found that crops which received an application of this unique zinc complex produced by De Sangosse, applied as a spray at 0.8-litres/ha at 2-true leaves, went on to yield 0.39t/ha more than untreated plants.

Plant pathology has found the basis of this better performance was due to the increased production of auxin hormones in the treated plants. Auxins are an essential growth hormone naturally produced by all plants and perform a fundamental role in regulating root development. Zinc is known to have an essential role in auxin production and crops treated with this specific form of the nutrient have produced greater biomass above and below ground. To consider the benefits further, Agrovista ran a series of farmer trials across England to investigate the advantage of Highlander ZC, one of

De Sangosse’s unique zinc complex range, in promoting establishment success and plant vigour. Where moisture was not a constraining factor, treated crops were noticeably bigger, says Agrovista UK technical manager, Mark Hemmant. “Grower trials from 2018 proved highly positive. Treated plants demonstrated greater vigour from about 10 days after application. This led to bigger canopies above ground and greater root mass below ground. We know from other work that bigger, stronger oilseed rape plants are more able to withstand attacks by cabbage stem flea beetle and its larvae,” explained Mr Hemmant. Leaf tissue tests of the treated crops revealed an increase in photosynthetic activity; an indicator that chlorophyll levels have increased, but also plants are able to use light more efficiently. “The greater chlorophyll content of the leaves was particularly welcome. Chlorophyll levels are directly associated with light use efficiency and more chlorophyll in the plant means more chemical energy within plant cells through higher levels of carbohydrates and sugars. This leads to better overall growth,” he adds. Yield increases are the most honest means of assessing a

product’s value, but with performance often determined by factors outside the grower’s control, it can be difficult to replicate the results in the field with those seen in controlled conditions. “A crop that has access to the moisture and nutrients it needs and is not threatened by pests or disease will almost always do well, but with oilseed rape, particularly in the east and south, conditions at establishment mean this is rarely the case. Supporting growth with a zinc-based biostimulant such as Highlander ZC boosts the crop’s chances of overcoming the challenges that Mother Nature delivers,” says Mr Hemmant. Highlander ZC should not be thought of as a foliar feed to address zinc deficiencies. Instead, it is the unique chemical form in which the zinc is carried that leads to increased plant development at this early stage, explains De Sangosse’ Rob Suckling (right). This distinct form of zinc has been found through continual research spanning three decades – including two post-graduate doctoral degrees – and is known to stimulate significantly higher levels of auxin in a wide range of crops than that seen with zinc sulphate or zinc nitrate. Highlander ZC also contains other essential elements that support biochemical processes that build yield and quality. The increased root mass means the plant is more able to deal with periods of reduced moisture, something confirmed by the photosynthesis analyser used in the ADAS trials, as Table 3 shows (opposite). “The ADAS Licor machine measures the plant’s ability to take up water through a measure called ‘the instantaneous water use efficiency (ITE) score’. It found that crops treated with the De Sangosse Zinc Complex were able to make more efficient use of the available water to photosynthesise. The more efficient the plant, the more growth you get for the available water which is borne out by the near doubling of plant weight between the treated and untreated,” explains Mr Suckling. Albeit an effective growth promoter, Highlander ZC is not a

replacement for water, sunlight and nutrients, in fact, availability of these is essential for the zinc complex to be taken up. The product simply enables the plant to harvest these resources more effectively to achieve greater gains in biomass. A good root system and strong crown going into the winter months sets the plants up well for spring growth. Equally, a more developed plant will be better able to withstand pressure from slugs, CSFBs and pigeons. “This product will not be a silver bullet for said pests and appropriate measures should still be taken for their control, but in an age where effective pesticides are continually being lost, Highlander ZC can become a valuable tool in the toolbox for those growers who are seeking alternative solutions in today’s challenging crop protection landscape Because the benefits are seen in the weeks shortly after application, principally through greater vigour, Mr Suckling says Highlander ZC’s contribution to crop development should be thought of as “improving establishment through enhanced photosynthesis and root growth”. “The evidence supports this view,” he says. “Analysis of treated crops shows an increase in other integral components of plant photosystems, such as plastoquinones which function as essential electron carriers, and carotenoids which are known to have an important role in light harvesting.

Early timing Application timing is crucial as the intention is to increase the crop’s rate of development ahead of the winter, explains Mr Suckling. “It needs to be applied early, ideally after cotyledon but before 6-true leaves, to drive increases in vigour.” For most growers, oilseed

Assessment on your own farm in this way is often the best means of judging a new product. “Absorption through the leaf is the principal means of uptake though some is also taken up by the roots, its timing coincides perfectly with an insecticide such as Hallmark with Zeon Technology (lambdacyhalothrin) or certain graminicides including Laser (cycloxydim),” concludes Mr Suckling. ■

Productivity justifies contractor investment

Like many other heavy land arable farmers in the eastern region, the Galloway family faces a constant fight against black-grass and having the right kit to apply microgranules for maximum efficacy is essential. David Williams visited the farm. Galloway Farms is based near Epping in Essex and along with 100ha of owned land, the family manages 400ha of nearby land on a whole farm contract basis and provides a regular contract combine harvesting service on a further 300ha and spraying on an additional 100ha. It also offers a general contracting service within a 30-mile radius and has become known as a specialist in microgranule applications.

Challenging land “Much of the land we farm is challenging clay although our own fields are probably the worst being predominantly heavy London clay,” explained partner Tim Galloway who runs the business with his brother Alistair and father Stuart. “We have some easier land too, but part of the challenge each season is soil

type variability over small distances which means we encounter different conditions across individual fields and variations in crop development through the season. However, one thing all the land has in common is that it is highly susceptible to blackgrass.” As well as using cultural methods such as later drilling to help reduce grass weed populations, Tim Galloway uses Avadex (triallate) - applied through a boom-type pneumatic applicator. For many years this was pulled behind a conventional ATV but as the area to be treated each season increased the heavy work started causing problems with reliability and took its toll on operators. “In some ways the ATV was ideal,” explained Tim. “The ATV’s wheeltrack was narrow compared to the trailed spreader so land was run

on only once which helped reduce compaction. But when our heavy soils are wet pulling the spreader is very hard work and when they are dry hard clods are formed. These can be quite large and because the ATV was very light it didn’t crush them, so its wheels were fighting for traction as it struggled to climb over them. This meant a rough ride for the user and aching shoulders from fighting the steering.” The micro-granule applicators chosen by Tim were manufactured by Techneat. One was a mounted model installed in the rear of a low ground pressure pick-up truck and the other came on a trailed low ground pressure chassis for use with the ATV. Both are 12m versions, driven by small petrol engines and both have automatic application rate control using precise speed information from an integrated GPS receiver. “We used one applicator

originally and applied throughout autumn but advice from agronomists regarding best time to apply provides a shorter weather window and with many farms drilling cereals later this also put the single applicator under severe time pressure. Running two means we cope easily with the 2,900ha of application each year including 2,000ha in the autumn and the rest in the spring.” The trailed applicator has suspended booms allowing faster working speeds than the farm’s previous model. “In a dry season the hard, cloddy ground results in a rough ride and the booms broke quite frequently,” explained Tim. “With suspension; the ride is better, continued over...

stresses are reduced and we can apply at up to 12–13kph.”

The right machine With a growing area requiring treatment and the applicators capable of faster working speeds the decision was made to replace the ATV with a larger UTV. “We had looked previously at options including several dieselengined models from reputable manufacturers but they were unacceptably noisy, under-powered, too heavy and too expensive. So we approached the local Can-Am dealer RW Crawford which already supplied our Challenger and Fendt tractors to

find out what they had available. “We borrowed a Traxter DPS HD8 model for an extended demonstration half-way through our 2018 autumn applications, and were impressed. We have some land which is very steep and which had caused the ATV to struggle so we took the Traxter there with the applicator knowing that if it coped with that it would do anything else needed with ease. It proved very capable and the powerful 800cc, 2-cyl petrol engine had tremendous torque and the automatic transmission adjusted to make the most of the engine’s capability. “The ride was comfortable and the engine was quieter than the diesel UTVs we tried, even when pulling hard. The fuel consumption was lower than expected too, although work rates were significantly higher than the ATV we had been using or any of the diesels tested.” Another advantage that the demonstration Traxter offered over the ATV was a cab. “It gave weather

protection and we felt it also gave additional protection against chemicals over and above our protective clothing, rather than being completely exposed, particularly after each headland turn.” A price for the demonstration machine was agreed and it took over from the ATV towing the Avadex applicator for the rest of the autumn. An immediate increase in productivity was noted, resulting from the higher working speed and also the Traxter’s ability to carry additional sacks of chemical in the rear load bed. “We work closely with Harlow Agricultural Merchants monitoring results of research into black-grass

and steering systems on other farm machinery and bought a secondhand steering motor and receiver which was installed on the Traxter. We have our own base station giving coverage across almost all the land we look after, and have an excellent relationship with the equipment provider which mans we can access an RTK signal anywhere else needed. This gives precision within 10cm for bout matching and works well in conjunction with our TopCon X30 display which is shared now between our combine and the UTV. “We used it this spring for the first time to ensure accurate switching at the headland and it’s amazing what a difference it made. We not only use less chemical through reduced double dosing but because there are no misses either it’s noticeable that there are fewer small patches of weed to spread later into the crop. To be honest if a contractor came to me and offered a service applying a costly chemical but didn’t have the means to apply it precisely I wouldn’t be impressed, so this is where we wanted to offer the quality of service we would expect ourselves.” Another modification to the Traxter was adding optional full doors this spring. “Previously the sides were open and in dry conditions the footwells became full of dust. The doors prevent this and give added weather protection but the electric windows, which we considered a gimmick at first, have turned out to be a valuable feature. It’s great being able to open the window on the far side to allow air flow through the cab, and shut it again at the touch of a switch without having to stop to do it manually.’

a three-year break. It has also proved useful for general farm transport. “It’s ideal for field checks or to transport tools and parts out to machines in the field and the low ground pressure tyres allow travel almost anywhere without causing damage. It reduces our use of the farm pick-up which is a benefit as that isn’t the sort of vehicle we really want travelling on our compaction-sensitive land. Since delivery the Traxter has completed 350 hours during which time it has been completely reliable. “It’s under warranty so we will use RW Crawford to carry out main services when the engineers visit for other machines,” added Tim. “Day to day maintenance is easily carried out, although there are a surprisingly large number of grease nipples on the steering and suspension.”

Happy with decision “We compromised on weight when we moved from the ATV to the Traxter UTV,” commented Alistair, “But it’s proved a successful decision resulting in increased productivity which allows more timely application, and makes the job more comfortable during long working days. Having considered and tried diesel alternatives, opting for the petrol model was the right decision. We have the capacity for additional work in our local area and believe the flexible timing and precise application we offer is just what growers need as part of the fight against these problem weeds.”■

Openfield’s arable technical manager, Duncan Durno looks at arable farmers’ planting options for winter wheat and barley. With harvest now upon us our thoughts shift towards looking at plantings for this coming autumn. The ever-decreasing number of plant protection products available to tackle key diseases such as septoria tritici, the loss of chlorothalonil being the latest example, means that varietal resistance is increasingly coming to the fore. Thankfully there are a number of varieties with strong varietal resistance to this yield robbing disease. KWS Extase is the standout variety for septoria currently at 8.1 on the AHDB RL, but seed availability is very limited. Thankfully there are other very capable varieties with high yields and strong disease packages available. One such variety is KWS Siskin, not only does it sit in the same nabim Group but they share many characteristics. Although not as early to mature as Extase, grain qualities are very similar. Both varieties have a very fast growth habit and tall straw, so drilling date for both would be in line. Both have a 9 for yellow rust resistance and Siskin has very strong resistance to septoria tritici at 6.7.

Yield If yield is the principal consideration, then look no further than Skyscraper. This soft feed wheat is the highest yielding variety available. It sits alongside another soft feed from breeder Limagrain, Spotlight, with very little to separate them on the RL. Both will need a robust fungicide programme, both have been consistent in three years of trials and both show good second wheat potential. Of the two, Skyscraper boasts the higher yield,

while Spotlight has better specific weight at an impressive 78.3kg/hl. Those looking for a hard wheat should consider Gravity or Gleam; both have impressive yields. Gleam offers growers short, stiff straw and is suitable for drilling at the early end of the drilling programme. It has early maturity and has robust septoria resistance at 6.4. Gravity has the edge on yield and produces a leafy canopy that is very competitive against black-grass.

Winter barley The winter barley area continues to increase, and growers have three new two-row feed varieties and one new six-row hybrid worth considering; not only improving yields but also agronomics and grain quality. Six-row hybrid Belfry has become the backbone variety for many growers due to its consistently high yields, impressive disease resistance and excellent straw quality. New variety SY Kingsbarn offers growers a second option to grow alongside Belfry without compromising on straw stiffness and disease resistance, and it also raises the bar on specific weight. Of the two-rows, KWS Gimlet narrowly takes top spot in the yield stakes, closely followed by LG Mountain and LG Flynn. Gimlet is a tall variety with stiff straw and brings improved mildew resistance to the KWS stable. Mountain is an early maturing short strawed variety that performs well on lighter soils. Flynn brings both yield improvements and exceptional grain quality with a specific weight of 69.8kg/hl and has an excellent disease profile.

Brothers Alistair and Tim Galloway said replacing their conventional ATV with a UTV compromised weight, but has resulted in extra productivity and comfort.

Matching metaldehyde for efficacy and cost effectiveness Growers should not worry about the loss of metaldehyde from the slug control product armoury says Herefordshire-based Hutchinsons agronomist Andrew Goodinson. Good quality ferric phosphate alternatives are as every bit as effective and also provide a better environmental footprint, he says. Numerous trials including those carried out by his company and various manufacturers have shown ferric phosphate to be as effective as metaldehyde across most crops. He says that targeted slug control using ferric phosphate is a good insurance against oilseed rape crop loss caused by poor establishment. Ultimately it is about protecting plants that have been drilled into poor seedbed conditions and are at high risk from slug grazing, including crops that are showing flea beetle damage. “Last autumn we had a challenge to establish oilseed rape crops, even without the flea beetle issue, because of the dry cloddy seedbeds. Seedbed conditions are more important than drilling date. If conditions aren’t right for planting oilseed rape then don’t,” says Mr Goodinson.

“Flea beetle exacerbated the problem last year, so growers must look at all cultural and treatment options for helping an oilseed rape crop establish. Ferric phosphate will have a significant role to play in slug control going forward.” He has been using ferric phosphate for over five years and at the same time phased out metaldehyde. He advises farmers in Herefordshire, the Welsh Borders and Shropshire, and covers a multitude of crops including cereals, turf, vegetables and fruit – all which suffer from slugs. “Metaldehyde has always been a cost-effective slug control option where applied properly, but I have always looked for safer alternatives with a better environmental profile. Ferric phosphate has proven to be a perfect replacement, matching metaldehyde for efficacy and cost effectiveness.” Mr Goodinson explains that when he attended a meeting about improving water quality in Hereford last year a question was asked about how many growers were using metaldehyde. He was surprised that about 75 per cent still were.

“While the lack of physical evidence seemingly puts some growers off ferric phosphate, the fact is that metaldehyde treated slugs die on the surface and are more visible, whereas ferric phosphate-treated slugs stop eating immediately and retreat underground where they die within a few days,” says Mr Goodinson. “We have found that crops recover more quickly where ferric phosphate has been applied, which is probably to do with the fact that the slugs in crops treated with metaldehyde continue to feed for some time having ingested the product before dying,” he explains. “Application timing is also critical with adult slugs being the target rather than the juveniles, especially in cereals. Therefore regular monitoring of traps is essential.” In terms of pellet quality he recommends the wet process ferric pellets on the market, which are good quality and spread well, giving even coverage and baiting points. “Bait quality is critical to the level of control, so always consider ballistics, pellet persistency, uniformity and palatability. Poor quality pellets cannot be applied

accurately over wide distances (max 15m) so the weight and shape of each pellet has to be consistent, to ensure even application and accuracy is maintained across the full working width.” Applying slug pellets accurately is difficult when broadcast, he says. It is less precise and there is inevitably more overlap. Therefore the quality of application machinery is also critical to ensure accuracy. “Operators will have already been following strict regulatory standards and demonstrated due diligence when applying metaldehyde, so these skills can simply be carried across to a ferric phosphate-based application, but without the same environmental concerns,” concludes Mr Goodinson. ■

Top tips to minimise slug damage in arable crops this autumn Certis arable product manager Neil Beadle offers some useful advice on how to win the fight against slugs this autumn. Rotation is a key consideration in the battle against slugs.

Know your species – There are about 46 species of slug in the UK, but just three of them are a concern in arable crops. These include the grey field slug, round back slugs and keeled slugs. Lifecycles are variable, with anywhere between two and four each year. Grey field slugs have a maximum lifespan of 9-12 months and is the most important species in cereals and oilseed rape. Know when crops are susceptible – In cereals, slugs cause seed hollowing and one slug can kill up to 50 seeds in the first week postdrilling. Shredding of shoots and

leaves is also a problem and crops are susceptible until GS21. Oilseed rape is very susceptible to early damage, too, with slugs potentially nipping off the growing point as it comes out of the ground. OSR is susceptible until the 4-leaf stage, so requires protection early. For potatoes, the most significant damage is caused at early tuber bulking, when slugs eat into tubers and leave unsightly cavities. Know what factors increase risk – Moisture and temperature are the two biggest factors that influence slug risk. Cool and wet conditions favour slugs, but even in a dry season slugs can still quickly repopulate soils and cause damage when rain eventually arrives. Clay and silt soils pose the greatest risk, while reduced tillage, cover crops, poor drainage and poor harvest residue management can all increase risk further. Previous crop also has

an influence, with oilseed rape, in particular, facilitating population growth. It is impossible to eradicate slugs – Slugs causing visible damage to crops are just the tip of the iceberg. A large proportion of the population is distributed through the soil profile out of sight, so it is impossible to completely eliminate the pest in any location. This makes summer slug pellet applications to reduce autumn damage a waste of time, as numbers quickly build when new crops are planted. Use cultural methods as first defence – Rotation is a key consideration. Do not plant susceptible crops such as salads and leafy vegetables after oilseed rape. Late-drilled cereals can also be at greater risk, as it takes crops longer to grow away from the susceptible growth stage. Cultivations play a role in reducing slug damage and growers should aim for fine and firm seedbeds to minimise pest movement. Also ensure that crop residue is evenly distributed to avoid creating slug hotspots. Monitor populations to establish

need for treatment – Slug pellets are most effective when applied early and timed to coincide with slug activity. Use traps ahead of planting and until the crop is past the susceptible stage. Use about 9-13 traps in a “W” pattern across known hotspots and leave overnight. For cereals and oilseed rape, 4 or more per trap indicates risk and the need for treatment. For potatoes or field vegetables, 1 per trap is the threshold. Choose a quality slug pellet formulation – When choosing a slug pellet, key requirements are palatability, durability and spreadability. A premium brand such as ferric phosphate-based pellet Sluxx HP offers all these attributes. Size is also more uniform, so spread well to 24m and the product provides more baiting points at field rates than its competitors. Calibrate application machinery – It is important to calibrate applicators when switching between different brands of pellet. Each may have C different size and ballistic properties, so incorrect applicator setup may M lead to uneven application and Y inconsistent control. ■ CM

Variety choice can reduce flea beetle threat Matching oilseed rape variety type to drilling date can have a significant effect on whether growers triumph over flea beetle and create the foundation for a strong healthy crop the following spring, says a plant breeding company. While the debate continues as to whether early or late drilling of oilseed rape is the best option, growers need to ensure whatever route they choose, that they have a variety most likely to stack the cards in their favour, believes DSV UK’s Sarah Hawthorne (right). “It’s an oversimplification to say it’s all down to vigour. High vigour is undoubtedly very important in the first 40–45 days after drilling so the plant establishes quickly, but excessive vigour beyond this can be a problem rather than a benefit. “What is more important is how vigour is exhibited at different stages of the growing cycle and how the plant responds to stresses at key

stages.” It is becoming increasingly clear that a variety’s ability to produce compensatory growth when damaged is critically important but so too is spring vigour, she says. “Evidence from trials this year suggest that spring vigour is incredibly important, at least as important as autumn vigour growth and potentially more so. “Strong hybrid varieties that are faster to develop before winter and start stem elongation earlier in spring can markedly limit damage from cabbage stem flea beetle larvae. “In-built agronomic properties are important too as unseen diseases

such as verticillium wilt and turnip yellows virus (TuYV) can significantly weaken plants and make them less able to tolerate pest threats. TuYV resistance can also help to protect the plant through its life cycle. Plants with high levels of TuYV infection will find it difficult to shrug off larval damage in spring. “TuYV resistance helps protect the crop from the stress caused by repeated aphid attacks and viral infection plus it’s been noted that varieties with TuYV protection often have higher vigour profiles in the spring,” she explains.

Trials performance The TuYV resistant variety Temptation has performed exceedingly well in Agrivice trials where flea beetle numbers have been monitored, Sarah continues. “The variety’s exceptional flexibility, versatility and outright vigour means it is also ideally suited to both earlier and later drilling strategies. “Planting early at the beginning of August means plants have day length and day light hours working in their favour, although this can result in a longer period where the beetles could be attacking plants and laying eggs. “Drilling later means there is simply less chance of attack but valuable growing time is lost,” she adds. “In either situation, Temptation shows a good early vigour without the tendency to overgrow so that the winter hardiness of this variety is exceptional further adding to the chances of crop success. It also exhibits strong compensatory growth throughout the growing cycle.” Temptation is on the AHDB RL for 2019/20 with a yield of 101 per cent of controls and has also been broadly introduced on the European continent with leading results in the important post official trials in France and Czech Republic, she points out. “Besides its TuYV resistance, the variety has a broad quantitative resistance against phoma and a good tolerance against verticillium wilt – another largely invisible disease that can cause long-term stress to the plant and drastically reduce final yields.” While Temptation is one of DSV’s double-layer varieties having multi-gene resistance to phoma stem canker and light leaf spot plus TuYV

resistance, two new high yielding triple-layer varieties coming through the UK testing system could further add to the ability of oilseed rape to tolerate pest problems. “DSV Dazzler is one of the fastest autumn growing varieties available which could help significantly mitigate against the effects of flea beetle attack as it can quickly grow new leaves if attacked. “Dazzler has good standing power so can tolerate being sown at higher seed rates. Strong autumn vigour and fast, early regrowth in spring help to compensate for any lost biomass in autumn and helps the plant to grow away quickly in spring. “In addition, RLM7 phoma stem canker resistance helps in tighter rotations where there is greater risk of the disease.” DSV Darling is another new high yielding triple-layer variety with high levels of compensatory growth and high levels of advantageous spring vigour, she says. In 2019/20 AHDB Candidate trials, Dazzler and Darling have achieved 104 and 105 per cent of controls respectively and both have resistance to rapeseed pod shattering. ■

New cereal fungicide available for 2020 The first product containing the active ingredient Revysol (mefentrifluconazole) has been authorised for use in the UK, giving farmers access to an important new cereal fungicide for their spray programmes in 2020, says BASF. Approved for use in wheat and barley, the isopropanol-azole is the first of its class to be introduced to the market. “This is very positive news for the farming sector,” says BASF’s business director of Agricultural Solutions for the UK, Ireland, Nordic and Baltics, Michael Wagner (right). “Revysol’s authorisation comes at a critical time into what is widely regarded as an increasingly challenging regulatory and disease control environment.” He adds that from the outset BASF took a completely fresh approach to Revysol, with regulatory needs driving the product development process.

“Key to the success of this authorisation was our decision to establish a new screening system to optimise Revysol’s efficacy against fungal pathogens while, in parallel, creating a product with a favourable regulatory profile. This has taken a big shift in mindset as well as in process.” Revysol will also be available in combination with BASF’s SDHI Xemium (subject to successful authorisation), for use on wheat and barley for the control, principally, of septoria in wheat, ramularia in barley and the rust diseases in both crops. “This active ingredient is an important, robust mode of action for the market given the losses the industry has suffered over recent years,” he says. “It shows outstanding field performance in both curative and long-lasting preventative situations, delivering a new level of disease control compared with existing azoles, even where shiftedsensitivity populations of disease isolates exist.” ■

Bruchid focus at pulse event Pulse growers, advisers and members of the trade attended the PGRO Pulse Field Day at Stubton, near Newark in early July to hear explanations of many of the applied research trials and the latest thoughts on crop agronomy. PGRO’s R&D manager, Dr Becky Howard, explained current work on bruchid control. “There are two actives currently approved and we are conducting trials to find the best sequence, timing and rates to give the optimum course of action tailored to the bruchid threat in each season. “This is important work as bruchids have caused major issues in the last two seasons, and is the mostmentioned threat to a successful crop – especially for growers targeting the human consumption market.” PGRO’s plant pathologist, Dr Lea Herold, was on hand to discuss the latest work on biostimulants: “This levy-funded research work is looking at combining peas, spring beans and vining peas over four seasons. “The research is focused on the value of different soil, seed and foliar products and how they can influence yield and factors such as chlorophyll

and protein. “It is important to stress that biostimulants are complementary to regular agronomic practice not a replacement – we are looking at helping the crop to help itself.” The Field Day also featured the full range of PGRO research work such as intercropping and row width trials – plus Recommended List trial plots of current and Candidate pea and bean varieties. ■

ploughed with a Gregoire Besson RB47, one deep-cultivated with a Vaderstad TopDown (heavy duty tine/ disc cultivator) to 250mm and one shallow TopDowned to 150mm. All were then levelled with a Vaderstad Ferox (light tine cultivator) and Crosskill rolls before drilling with a Vaderstad Rapid 600S. A further plot was low-tilled (modified direct-drilled) using the Ferox/Crosskill combination to about 3.5cm to even the seedbed ahead of drilling with a John Deere 750a direct drill. The final plot (no-till) was established using the 750a only. All plots were drilled with RGT Gravity wheat on 3 October. “In the dry autumn the general trend in terms of establishment seemed to be the less we moved the soil, the better the result,” says Mr Purvis (see table). “This has in the main fed through to ear count. It will be interesting to see how much difference this makes to yield.” Test digs showed the clay loam soils had self-structured sufficiently over the past season to enable the wheat to put down strong roots even where direct drilled. The result might have been very different in a wet year, he adds. “Hopefully as we go through the years we will be able to build up a pattern that we can turn into advice.” Next year the trial will use the same establishment methods but will add a post-harvest black oat-based cover crop into the mix. A similar trial in its first year at Agrovista’s northern Regional Development Site at Balne, North Yorkshire, is investigating cultivations with and without cover crops in spring barley, which could become a crop of choice to help growers combat the rising black-grass threat in this heavy land area. “So far the strip-tilled plot appears to be performing best,” says

agronomist Bob Wilkin. “It’s early days, but the aim is to discover which regimes will enable us to return soils to good health like those we see near hedgebacks, which are free of compaction, well aerated, high in organic matter and full of life.”

Matching up Do different wheat varieties suit different cultivation systems? That’s the question technical manager Mark Hemmant hopes to answer at Framlingham where he is investigating how different wheat varieties perform under high- and low-till cultivations. Four wheat varieties were established on large-scale plots, either direct drilled with a John Deere 750a or cultivated using a combination of tines and discs (Vaderstad TopDown/Ferox cultivator/CrossKill rolls) before drilling with a Vaderstad Rapid. The varieties include a fastdeveloping variety, KWS Siskin, a slow developer, KWS Barrel and two of the highest yielding feed wheats, RGT Gravity and Sartorial, a robust new offering from Agrovista. “In the three trials we harvested last year, RGT Gravity performed the same regardless of establishment method. However, there were significant differences in the performances of KWS Barrel and KWS Siskin under the high and low regimes.” This year at Framlingham all the varieties established better under low till, probably due to soil moisture conservation as in the trial above. “However, by the spring we found Barrel was rooting better under the high-till regime, which might explain why its growth looked more variable under low-till,” says Mr Hemmant. “We saw less of this variability in the other varieties, particularly Sartorial, which looked consistent across all the plots. “We have also observed lower disease levels in general in the low-till plots and possible differences in plant growth regulator requirements. There are no definitive answers as yet, but we are learning a lot on the way.” ■

One of the BBRO’s BeetField19 summer technical events took place in early July near Diss in Norfolk. Dominic Kilburn reports. Primed and ready for lift-off

The sweetest thing

Germains has launched its enrich 200 seed priming technology, as the latest addition to its Xbeet enrich series. As well as containing an elicitor to help cope with stress (like existing product enrich 100), enrich 200 contains a plant-derived biostimulant to boost early plant growth. Germains lead scientist Jordon Long (right) said the addition of the biostimulant boosts early plant development resulting in faster growth, less time to reach plant maturity and earlier canopy development. “In the spring, sugar beet plants are vulnerable and so anything we can do to help establishment and get the leaves out is a good thing,” he commented. He said that, in laboratory tests, the company had seen an increase in size of early plant development when comparing enrich 200 with enrich 100 and unprimed seed. “In field, small plot trial measurements taken between 4–8 leaf stage, enrich 200 gave 5 per cent more leaf area at this growth stage, compared with enrich 100.” He said that the biostimulant element of enrich 200 had been trialled over a number of years across a range of pellet types and, on average, has shown a 1.3 per cent increase in adjusted yield in comparison to control. “Given an average yield, 1.3 per cent improvement in yield is equivalent to an additional £22/ha to a grower,” he concluded.

High sugar content is a feature of Betaseed varieties, said distributor Limagrain’s sugar beet consultant Bram van der Have (right), pointing out that newly-recommended BTS 4100 has the highest sugar content on the whole List (18.4 per cent). “Growers need to produce crops with both high root yield and sugar content but variable agronomic conditions mean that you are not always going to achieve the latter,” he continued. “On heavier land it’s not an issue, but on organic soils conditions need to be good to deliver high sugar content, so growers in this situation are better off selecting a high sugar content variety to have the opportunity to maximise yield.” Mr van der Have said that BTS 4100 is an early driller, suited to sowing in March and through April. It has an adjusted tonnes figure of 101.8 per cent, sugar yield of 101.5 per cent and is rhizomania tolerant. “For normal and late drilling, BTS 1140 is still a top yielding option in its second year of commercial planting, and is one of the most popular varieties currently in the ground,” he commented. On the issue of virus yellows, he said that, as a breeder, the company is working as hard as it can to try and develop varieties with more genetic tolerance and resistance. “There is adult plant tolerance already, so we know it’s More over page... something we can do – but it’s a race against time.”

Arable Choose your cultivation tool carefully

Use the latest data

Sugar beet is incredibly responsive to soil conditions and will pay dividends if the soil is well structured with natural fissures, said BBRO’s Dr Simon Bowen (right). Dr Bowen said that this type of soil – a Beccles chalk boulder clay – is a challenge for sugar beet growers and, ideally, he would like to see roots down to 1m, while any plants living in the top 0.3m (12in) of the soil profile will go “up or down with the weather”. He said that growers can improve the topsoil ahead of beet with manures and cover crops, but it is key that they look below this layer in order to determine their cultivation strategy. “This is a good time of the year to go into fields and look at the soil profile. Choose your cultivation tool carefully – one size doesn’t fit all – and if the crop can’t get to depth, it will wither.”

Looking ahead to next season’s drilling, if soil conditions are right then drill crops as early as possible and then get them through the juvenile stage to 12-true leaves as soon as possible. This hardens off the root and the leaves which restricts or reduces damage, advised SES VanderHave managing director Ian Munnery (right). “The flip side of that is the risk of bolting in the UK if it’s cold and so ahead of selecting varieties for next season, early-sown bolting scores are an important consideration on the Recommended List. “In addition, early sowing can give 10–15 per cent yield advantage compared with crops sown in mid April. That yield advantage is critical and gives UK growers a huge advantage.” Mr Munnery said that rust is probably the most important disease to manage in the UK and, again, varietal scores on the RL are key to helping to protect the canopy and the crop. “Make sure you use the latest data before you order varieties and seed treatments for the coming season,” he added.

Seedling disease protection and rooting boost With the claim of giving sugar beet crops a better start as well as providing protection from a range of diseases, Syngenta attended the event to discuss its new seed treatment Vibrance SB, containing sedaxane + fludioxonil + metalaxyl-M. Field technical manager, Georgina Wood said that a limited amount of Vibrance SB had been applied to crops this season but it will be available as an option on a number of varieties on the seed list for the 2020 beet planting season. According to Georgina, Vibrance SB has been shown to develop a faster

root system for rapid and strong spring establishment, along with effective control of rhizoctonia, pythium and phoma seed diseases. “With the loss of Thiram seed treatment, Vibrance SB is now the only broad-spectrum treatment available and better control of these diseases will provide more consistent plant stands, also resulting in easier harvesting,” she explained. “Early emergence and getting the crop to the 12-leaf stage as quickly as possible is key for sugar beet and Vibrance SB has been shown to develop a faster rooting system and quicker spring establishment,” she added.

Wrestling with wild oats Wild oats in barley.

winter wheat yields by up to 1t/ha and spring cereals by as much as 0.6t/ha.

Test for resistance

In the final column in our series on integrated controls to manage the ‘big five’ grass weeds, Barrie Hunt turns his attention to wild oats. Increasing reliance on pre-em and peri-em herbicides in place of later post-em winter cereal applications to deal with the likes of black-grass, bromes and Italian ryegrass can easily open the door to wild oats if we are not very careful. As can spring cropping. So it’s hardly surprising that, despite being relatively easier to control than these other annuals, wild oats are currently problematic on almost 20 per cent of the national winter cereals area. Nor that many farms find them noticeably more troublesome than either bromes or Italian rye-grass. Wild oat infestations tend to build-up less rapidly than other grass weeds because they produce fewer seeds. This means the level of control we need to prevent populations increasing is only 75-85 per cent, compared with more than 95 per cent for black-grass.

Although resistance is widespread, many post-em herbicides can still give us good control of most emerged wild oats. The problem, however, lies in the fact that their emergence is extremely variable and can be from considerably greater depths than most other grass weeds. So the most effective control comes from later autumn or spring applications, with pre-em herbicides often having a limited effect – in direct contrast to our best approach with black-grass, bromes or Italian ryegrass. On top of this, we have the added complication of spring as well as winter wild oat species, which often occur in the same field and are encouraged by spring cropping. Under these circumstances, it’s essential we keep up our guard against wild oats. Not least because their highly competitive nature means a single plant/m2 can cut

BROOMEX

Regardless of what we do to control other grass weeds, if we have wild oat problems beyond roguable levels, we should employ post-em applications of fops, dims, dens or ALS inhibitors like mesosulfuron + iodosulfuron and pyroxsulam mixtures. Given the problem of resistance, though, it’s advisable to have a sample of weed seeds tested to confirm the particular population’s herbicide sensitivity. That way we make the best product choice. Chemical controls remain important with wild oats because their protracted germination pattern and ability to emerge from 10–15cm or more, means the key cultural controls of later autumn drilling, spring cropping and ploughing are generally less effective. Even so, there is plenty we can do culturally to support in-crop control. Like meadow, rye and soft bromes, we need to delay post-harvest cultivations for as long as possible to allow freshly shed wild oat seed to germinate or lose its viability on the surface. Otherwise we can induce dormancy for up to six years. Again this may conflict with our best approach for controlling sterile brome as well as black-grass and ryegrass. Addressing these problems with later winter cereal drilling – not to mention spring sowing – however, should give us plenty of time to setup a good stale seedbed and spray

it off with Roundup ahead of drilling even after an initial delay of four to six weeks. Like dealing with the other problem grass weeds, minimal further soil disturbance in the run-up to, and at drilling, is also important here to minimise wild oat germination in the seedbed.

Control opportunities Alongside the most effective combination of controls in our cereals, we should take full advantage of the excellent opportunities we have for controlling wild oats with actives like clethodim and propyzamide in our cereal breaks too. Being highly susceptible to competition in their early growth stages, competitive crops like winter OSR and beans can be very valuable in dealing with later-emerging wild oats. Equally, late-sown spring crops like peas and linseed can help by giving us the greatest possible time for pre-planting control with Roundup. Finally, we mustn’t forget hand-rogueing or patch-spraying in June wherever we’ve contained the problem sufficiently. These will almost certainly be justified by the extent to which we limit seed return as well as yield impact. They are especially important, of course, wherever herbicide resistance has been confirmed or suspected. As Roundup technical manager, Barrie Hunt co-ordinates the national on-line resource (www. monsanto-ag.co.uk/grassweedaction) providing the best information and guidance for growers keen to control grass weeds in the most sustainable way possible. ■

Product launch

New tractors, harvesters and implements at German product launch Ahead of Agritechnica later this year Fendt displayed its latest innovations to press from across Europe at the company’s German headquarters. David Williams attended. Considerable investment in research and development should ensure Fendt’s products and services remain at the cutting edge of agricultural technology. This year an estimated €73.7m will be spent on R&D, up from €72.2m last year. Sales are impressive for the premium brand in a competitive market, and last year 16,806 tractors were produced of which 66 per cent were exported from Germany, whereas the 2019 estimate is ‘significantly more’ than 18,000 units with 68 per cent exported. Combines are in growing demand too, and with 353 sold in 2017 rising to 427 in 2018, this year’s total is likely to be up to 460, helped by the award winning Ideal model available commercially for the first time this season.

Tractor news A grand reveal of the latest 900-series tractors was widely predicted ahead of the event and an impressive display of the first 35 leaving the factory on lorries for destinations all over the world didn’t disappoint. The new 900-series 5-model line-up includes a flagship 942 Vario pushing maximum power in the series up from 396 to 415hp. Power throughout the series is from MAN engines, designed especially for the

application. These 6-cyl, 9.0-litre (up from 7.8-litre) power units have variable geometry turbocharging and require an oil change only every 1,000 hours. Fendt’s iD low engine speed concept is used in the new 900-series with rated performance at just 1,700rpm. Idling is at 650rpm and maximum 60kph transport speed is achieved at just 1,450rpm. Maximum 1,970Nm torque is at 1,100rpm on the 942 Vario. Completely new to the 900-series is VarioDrive transmission, borrowed from the larger 1000 Vario-series. This distributes drive effort separately to the front and rear axles, depending on operating conditions. Because the front and rear axles are decoupled there is no power wasted due to axle ‘wind-up’ and at higher travel speeds drive to the front axles fully disengages unless it is needed for traction or during braking. An advantage of the design is ‘pull-in turn’ which applies extra power to the front axle during sharp turns to pull the tractor in the steering direction for extra manoeuvrability. A new heavier-duty front axle is fitted to suit the additional power. Fendt will submit the new tractors for independent performance testing in the coming months and predicts significant fuel savings mainly due to

The Fendt 200 Vario with automatic control of complex implement combinations was developed in conjunction with Braun.

the new transmission. The cab is new with technology capable of displaying machine performance data in realtime through the base telemetry package. Fendt Connect allows data sharing to analyse and manage machine use making it easier to manage machinery fleets. It also provides access to dealer services. Smart Connect is also available for the new 900-series tractors allowing the user to link an iPad to the tractor using an internal wifi network. Machine parameters including position, worked area, speed, fuel consumption and engine load are sent straight to the iPad during use and the screen serves as an additional display area for the Varioterminal. Smart Connect is standard on all ProfiPlus variants.

Added compatibility Despite its size the new 900-series models can be set up for a wheeltrack down to just 60in. VarioGrip tyre pressure regulation is an option allowing pressure adjustment while driving. The latest version is capable of inflating dual row-crop wheels from the cab. Fendt Grip Assistant is also available for the new 900-series through the terminal, allowing the user to determine the ideal ballast and tyre pressures at pre-defined operating speeds. It also allows the user to determine optimum working speed and tyre pressures where ballast is already fitted. For maximum grip a new 750/70R44 2.2m diameter tyre has been developed for the range. continued over...

Load-sensing pumps provide 165- or 220-litres hydraulic oil flow capacity. Optional 430-litres/min flow can be specified. Two autonomous axial piston pumps provide the flow; one with 220-litres/min and the other 210-litres/min, mounted either side of the rear transmission housing allowing convenient hose attachment from each side. Fendt explained that the slight difference in pump output is to prevent resonance when the pumps work together for maximum flow. Having two pumps provides greater flexibility in terms of supplying different rates and pressures and with such high flow available, the system complements Fendtâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s iD low-speed concept.

Comfort and convenience Along with the additional connectivity and driver aids, the new 900 Vario series tractors are available with an infotainment system operated from the terminal. As well as improving clarity of telephone calls, additional upgrades include a high-end speaker system. A new storage area below the cab on the right-hand side provides space for a tool box or 12-litre washing station. Also new is an in-cab air supply for convenient hose attachment and making it easier to blow clean the cab floor. External mirrors are electrically adjustable including a telescopic arm mount allowing extension from the seat to see around wide trailers or implements, and quick retraction to avoid damage once the trailer is removed. Improved anti-theft protection

includes a safety locking system and combined immobiliser. This uses a coded key, unique to each tractor, for the cab, ignition, bonnet and fuel tank.

Task management Implement control and monitoring can be through the standard Isobus connection. Tractor Implement Management (TIM) is an upgrade option, allowing tractor functions including operating speed to be controlled by the implement. Fendt TI Headland smart headland management is also available through which Variotronic activation of a programmed headland sequence can be linked to VarioGuide position monitoring. This allows implements to be automatically raised and lowered, for example, when the appropriate headland position is reached. Deliveries of the new 900 Vario series have already started and most UK dealers have ordered at least one demonstration machine. The new engine is a significant

update, but the integration of the VarioDrive transmission offering improved performance combined with potential fuel and tyre wear savings will also be a major attraction to potential users. In fact, Fendt suggested that its unique drive concept is likely to filter down through to its smaller tractors in time, allowing smaller farms to benefit from the advantages too.

Other tractor news Other large tractor news includes the flagship 1000 Vario series of which more than 2,000 have been delivered to date. Several new options include those introduced for the new 900 Vario, including; electrically adjustable mirrors with telescopic arm mounts, a security coded key and immobiliser and the infotainment and speaker packages. The Fendt 900 Vario MT rubbertracked crawler is now available with the joystick companion to the 10.4in terminal allowing headland sequences to be more easily programmed. There are also two new hydraulic valve control options.

FendtOne

Fendt 700 Vario ProfiPlus models will be the first available with FendtOne making it easier to control multiple implements while making the most of guidance and data sharing through multiple digital displays and the new 3L multi-function joystick.

Looking further to the future a new FendtOne control concept was shown for the first time. Available in late 2020 for the most popular 700 Vario, and 300 Vario series, FendtOne is a new, intuitive operating system which allows users to plan work and field data in the farm office then transfer it direct to the tractor by mobile network with both ends of the process sharing similar layout and appearance for ease of use. For ProfiPlus models it offers Smart Farming applications such as tracking capability, the Fendt Task Manager for efficient task management and Guide Sync for field data management. The FendtOne platform can be tailored to suit individual situations helping users get the best from

their machines. The Agrirouter data exchange platform is a key part of the system making it ideal for contractors to share data with customers using a variety of different farm management programmes and software. The most noticeable difference between current models and those equipped with the FendtOne system is additional display space and increased display options. Up to three displays can be added within the standard configuration all linked to a central computer. These include a new 9in digital dashboard display which provides essential road travel and Fendt Guide features with operation through an armrestmounted push-dial. Two 12in displays; one on the right armrest as well as an optional terminal in the roof offer up to 6 freely configurable display fields. Both 12in screens can be controlled through the new, optional 3L multi-function joystick which also incorporates additional functions, or by direct touch to the screens. The new joystick is to the right of the standard crossgate control joystick and has 3 operating levels and up to 27 functions. Functions are divided into groups by colour making it easy for operators to tell if buttons have been re-assigned and to avoid errors. Fendt says the improved display options and additional screen area will help operators get the most benefit from the ever increasing number of terminal applications available, and make it easier to handle data and control more complex attachments by providing a better overview of tasks without constantly switching screen views or having to divide screens into smaller sections. Isobus connectivity is improved including a front connector making it easier to control and monitor front-mounted implements direct continued over...

from the tractor armrest. Like the larger tractor series, the new 700 Vario will be available with an optional infotainment and high performance speaker package.

New 300 Vario flagship Smaller tractors haven’t been forgotten in the upgrades for 2020 and the addition of a new flagship 314 Vario to the 300 Vario series provides an additional 10hp available on-demand through Fendt’s DynamicPerformnce power-boost. DynamicPerformance isn’t restricted only to particular operating situations, so up to 152hp is available whenever it is needed to meet demand for PTO, hydraulics, engine cooling, and air conditioning. It constantly monitors the power requirement, delivering extra if needed. This makes it available for stationary PTO work for example, such as powering large mixer wagons as well as for transport and field work. FendtOne for the 314 Vario introduces Agrirouter to the series for communication and data exchange and a new multi-function joystick is available offering similar advantages to the new 700 Vario’s system. The three-terminal option including a 9in, and two 12in displays is similar to the top-end system from the 700 Vario. A high-end infotainment and speaker system can also be specified. The new 314 Vario will be available in Profi and ProfiPlus variants in late 2020.

Automated operation Combined automatic control of Fendt 200 Vario tractors and complex vineyard implements is being introduced by Fendt which has worked with Braun on the development. The initial system is designed for viticulture where increased mechanical weed control is replacing herbicides. The tractor and implement combination is fully controlled by the system from accurate steering between vine rows to precise positioning and movement of front, rear and mid-mounted implements with operating speed also regulated automatically to suit the task and working environment. Information from which operational adjustments are decided is provided by a laser, a gyroscope, the Vineyard Pilot Assistant control unit and a terminal.

For 2021 the Ideal 10 will be available with headers up to 12.2m, and no steering wheel.

The laser constantly scans the environment detecting soil contours, vines and stakes and active intervention is only needed from the driver at the headland. Operating speed is almost twice that possible when similar combinations are controlled manually and with more activities combined in one pass, compaction through additional journeys is reduced.

Ideal 10 Fendt’s Ideal combines are working commercially for the first time in the UK this year after a limited number of machines were demonstrated by selected dealers in 2018. So far Ideal 7-, 8- and 9-series models have been shown but an Ideal 10 with a new MAN 16.2-litre power unit producing up to 790hp will be available to order from July 2020 for delivery in time for the 2021 harvest. The Ideal 10 has a new cleaning system working with the innovative Dual Helix separator. An unusual design feature of the Ideal 10 is that it has no steering wheel, improving forward visibility to the road and the header. Replacing the steering wheel is a steering joystick on the left-hand armrest, and for access to the seat the armrest and joystick fold up out of the way. Fendt IdealDrive joystick steering is said to comply with all traffic regulations and is only available for Ideal combines.

Katana 650 News regarding Katana forage harvesters included an upgrade to the 650 improving performnce and reliability. Engine power is up by 25hp to 650hp from its MTU 6-cyl power unit. A variable drive cooling fan with

reversing function is now standard controlling air flow by adjusting the blade angle. For harvesters working with wider maize headers, improved performance on undulating ground is provided by a new intake with up to +/- 7 degrees of rotation available. The crop pick-up is optimised and the processing area is enlarged with two 300mm rollers, one of which has an additional V helical groove to increase lateral destruction of the crop. The spout has a larger cross section aiding crop flow and Fendt national sales manager Martin Hamer explained that this improves performance in wet grass and will increase appeal for UK users. From in-feed to the chute flap the redesigned crop flow to suit the new roller conditioner increases throughput by up to 21 per cent, equivalent to 12 per cent reduced fuel use compared with current model performance. Chop length up to 30mm can be obtained. “For crops such as direct cut rye the new roller cracker can be set up for exceptional cracking quality, and will increase appeal to UK farmers and contractors,” pointed out Martin. Improved blade sharpening performance and an extended blade and sharpening stone life result from a new sharpening system. The stone constantly readjusts during use and is more aggressive on the outer blade sections to maintain an even profile. Optimal blade sharpening improves chopping quality and extends the service life of the stone and knives by up to 25 per cent claims the company. For improved performance on steep slopes Fendt has added

BalancedGrip to the Katana 650 which adjusts the proportion of drive allocated to each axle and prevents the wheels spinning when axle loads are reduced, protecting the sward from damage. The new Katana 650 is available to order from November 2019.

Sprayer news A more powerful Rogator 600 selfpropelled sprayer is being added to the line-up. The Rogator 665 has a 307hp, 7.4-litre 6-cyl engine and, from 2020, all Rogator 600 models will be powered by similar power units with a range of different power outputs. Fendt OptiNozzle will be available from January 2020 offering Rogator users optimal application results with minimum chemical drift. The most suitable nozzle or nozzle combination is automatically selected once the operator has specified the output, degree of drift reduction needed and a working pressure range for optimal droplet size. Then the system constantly adjusts in work responding to changes in speed or output levels. For Rogator 300 trailed sprayers, Tractor Implement Management (TIM) is being added allowing compatible Fendt Vario tractors to be controlled by the sprayers. The sprayer automatically selects optimal speed and adjusts the nozzle parameters accordingly, including the preferred drift reduction and output. Depending on the nozzles used the sprayer adjusts the travel speed to the calculated target speed ensuring the product being applied always benefits from a suitable level of drift reduction. Active TIM control allows the operator to adjust the

Grass harvest updates A new front mower is being added to the Fendt Slicer range. The Slicer FQ is designed for medium to large dairy farms and contractors in 3.1 and 3.6m working widths and with tine or roller conditioners. Lateral shift of +/-20cm left and right is standard and allows correction on side-slopes for drift. Three-dimensional ground adjustment maintains accurate ground following laterally and longitudinally. As the cutter bed moves up and down following ground contours, the mower tilt automatically adjusts between -6 and +15 degrees with the mower’s vertical travel. This is claimed to result in constant cutting height even in difficult conditions. Compensation for undulating ground includes up to +/-13 degrees cross-swing and 750mm vertical travel. The mower can attach direct to the tractor’s front linkage, keeping

The addition of Lotus tedders to the Fendt grass harvesting line-up for next year was welcomed by the Fendt UK sales team. “The Lotus name is highly respected and there is nothing to touch it for tedding performnce in typical challenging UK conditions,” explained Martin, who said having it available for next year’s grass harvest season will be appreciated by customers and dealers. Three Lotus models in the Fendt range cater for most UK demand. These include the fully mounted Lotus 7.7m 770, and trailed 10.2m 1020T and 12.5m 1250T models. All have Fendt performance tines; 6 on each rotor on mounted models and 7 on trailed. The tines have a unique profile guaranteeing thorough pick-up of the mowed crop and ability to effectively turn heavy, wet forage. Fendt’s tine design is claimed

to result in up to 15 per cent higher work rate than standard tines. Baler updates include Intelligent Hay, allowing data specific to each bale to be recorded and stored easily. During baling, data about each square bale is recorded including GPS position, moisture, bale flakes as well as information regarding bale length, weight and additives used. Using special twine in the third or fourth twine position, an RFID chip is woven into each bale providing an identification code.

When this code is cross-referenced against data stored in a cloud-based memory the bale data is available to view. Other baler news includes the ProCut cutter unit being added as an option for the Fendt Squadra high-performnce square baler. The 26 knives are arranged in the drawer in 2 groups, each of which can be controlled separately to provide a fine cut or for double the cutting length when only half are ■ selected.

Brushcutter test

Battery and petrol brushcutters tested on farm Brushcutters have a busy life on many UK farms and estates playing a vital part in keeping grass and weed growth under control. Sales of battery-powered models are increasing and Farmers Guide arranged an on-farm test of a petrol model and an equivalent electric version to see how they compared. David Williams reports. Not long ago battery-powered strimmers were considered a novelty and a last resort for professional users, often selected only when lower operating noise was essential or for domestic users where storing petrol was an issue. Now, in common with other electric tools, improved battery power, capacity, and extended working times have made them a practical alternative and agricultural dealers report that a gradual changeover from petrol to electric powered models is in progress. Farmers Guide asked Stihl to supply its most popular petrol model for farm tasks, along with an equivalent battery-powered model to compare, and lent both for a threeweek test with Euston Estate on the Norfolk-Suffolk border. Euston Estate is home to the 12th Duke of Grafton and his family and, along with extensive parkland as well as 28ha of gardens, there is a large farming enterprise including woodland, stewardship grassland, arable crops and a vegetable enterprise run in conjunction with RG Abrey Farms. There is an awardwinning solar energy installation and an anaerobic digester for which maize is grown. Livestock include cattle, horses, pigs, sheep and poultry and with all the enterprises across more than 4,300ha there is plenty of work for the maintenance and groundcare team.

The brushcutters recommended by Stihl were FS111 petrol, and FSA130 battery models.

Ideal test user Jamie Fairs is a member of Euston’s gardening and maintenance team and is well used to working with a variety of brushcutters. As well as keeping paths and tracks clear of grass and brambles, and trimming areas which can’t be reached by tractor-mounted mower, his work includes maintaining verges and other grass areas around Euston village. “I was very open-minded about the battery-powered version,” he explained. “Stihl is a respected manufacturer and I was quite confident that the electric model would be capable of professional use, but to what extent it could compete with a petrol machine I wasn’t so sure. I was fairly certain the battery model would be nicer to use with less noise and vibration.” The FS111 petrol model was equipped with a Stihl AutoCut head which holds a reel of nylon line and automatically feeds out a set length each time the release button is knocked on the floor. The FSA130 had a Stihl PolyCut head designed for trimming larger areas and which has three solid pivotmounted plastic blades. For the test Stihl supplied a continued over...

The Stihl FSA130 with an AR1000 backpack battery proved equivalent to the FS111 31.4cc petrol for 99 per cent of tasks, and was preferred for its convenience and comfort of use.

The FS111 petrol brushcutter is a favourite with farmers.

The AutoCut head performed well without jamming during a week’s heavy use.

backpack-type AR1000 battery. This is lithium-ion, incorporates a 6-led battery charge indicator and comes with a handle and waterproof cover. It’s comfortable and with the harness correctly adjusted you forget you have it on,” Jamie said. “It’s easy to take on and off and even though we had a week of exceptionally hot weather during the test period, wearing it was never a problem.” Jamie said that because batterypowered brushcutters consume no power unless they are cutting, all the battery capacity is available for work. “This extends on-site time between recharging where petrol models are usually left idling for brief periods between use and continue to consume fuel,” he explained. “It also helps that with no clutch, the battery model can operate at lower engine revs for lighter work and there are three power settings allowing the user to reduce the operating power and speed for lighter tasks maximising available working time, and reducing working noise.”

Adequate capacity The battery supplied was the smallest of Stihl’s three backpack versions but still achieved approximately 90 minutes of cutting time at full power, equivalent to several hours’ typical use. Jamie said that charging overnight and again at lunchtime meant there was plenty of

capacity for a typical day’s trimming although for continuous heavy work a larger battery or a spare would have been helpful. The FS111 achieved approximately one hour’s work at full speed between refuelling, which Jamie deemed excellent in terms of fuel economy. “It’s got a very large fuel filler,” he said. “It’s much easier to access than any of our current brushcutters making it easy to refuel at the work site and it’ a great design feature. One of the best I have seen.” For convenience; simply pressing the safety switch and pulling the trigger of the battery model was unbeatable, but that didn’t stop Jamie complimenting the ease of use of the petrol version. “Even after running out of fuel, whether hot or cold it started easily after a press of the fuel pump and was never any trouble.”

Use and maintenance In work, the petrol model proved comfortable, quiet compared to the estate’s current machines and easy to use but Jamie said the electric version was quieter and more comfortable being almost totally free of vibration. He pointed out that whereas the petrol model continues to idle between cutting periods so there is always some noise, the battery version became silent when not cutting which made it less tiring.

“Both were well balanced and even with the lighter electric motor at the top, the position and angle of the cutting head was easy to control. One thing I noticed was that after a long period of use I was less physically tired as less effort was required swinging it from side to side. “ Apart from recharging the battery model requires little maintenance but the petrol machine was simple to prepare for a day’s work. “Everything is well designed and accessible,” he said, “and a feature I particularly liked was the transparent fuel tank making it easy to check the fuel level at a glance. “The AutoCut head is easy to reload with line but there is plenty of capacity and even though it is lighter than the line we usually buy, it wasn’t refilled during a week’s heavy use.” The electric model’s PolyCut head was liked by all the operators who found it effective and easy to use. Refilling was especially easy. “It’s very good on green vegetation,” said Jamie, “but we found quite quickly that it didn’t like tree stumps or walls so had to be careful where there were obstructions. We tried the cord head too, but found this was the one situation where the power wasn’t quite as good as the petrol machine and it struggled when presented with dense vegetation.”

Simple handlebar adjustment and quality controls featured on both models. Pictured (above) – Jamie with the FS111.

The backpack battery is comfortable to wear and incorporates a large battery charge indicator although Jamie said that during the last 20 minutes before the battery is completely flat the reducing performance becomes obvious.

Verdict Jamie said that by the end of the test he favoured the FSA130 battery model over the petrol, tending to use this from the start of each working period until the battery was flat, and then switch to the petrol. “I got on well with both and would be happy working with either, but the battery version was quieter, more convenient and more comfortable due to the lower vibration and I was very impressed. The petrol performed well too, and had a very slight power continued over...

The FSA130 motor is at the top of the brushcutter helping counteract the weight of the cutting head. Large cooling capacity allows continuous use in heavy working conditions.

advantage for the heaviest work, so having it as a reserve worked well.” Asked whether he would request a battery model when the estate’s brushcutters are next updated Jamie confirmed that he would, but with a higher capacity battery. “The battery life was impressive,” he said, “but during the final 20 minutes of working it was obvious without looking at the battery indicators that a recharge was needed.”

The PolyCut head is practical and handles dense vegetation but is easily damaged by solid objects. To replace a blade the user simply prises the upper and lower sections apart and locates a new blade onto the pivot.

Integrated approach to crop establishment gets best out of strip-till drill With pressures like slugs, black-grass and flea beetle to contend with, everyone knows getting a crop up and away in the autumn is critical, but not everyone knows this can be achieved in one-pass, straight behind the combine. British manufacturer Mzuri has been championing just that, a strip tillage system that achieves quick, even establishment in a range of soil types – with none of the typical drawbacks of direct drilling. Tackling many of the common pitfalls of direct establishment, the Mzuri system centres around two key pieces of equipment – the one-pass Pro-Til strip-till drill and the Rezult stubble rake. Designed and manufactured in the UK, the Mzuri system has been tried and tested on the company’s trial farm in Worcestershire and has since seen excellent uptake across Britain, Europe and even as far afield as New Zealand and parts of Africa. The manufacturer puts the system’s success down to its versatility and ability to establish a wide range of crops, in different soil types.

Strength to strength Mzuri’s trial farm manager, Ben Knight (right) experienced this firsthand at Springfield Farm where he manages the manufacturer’s trials alongside the commercial farming enterprise. “Since converting to strip tillage,

crop establishment, Springfield Farm has gone from strength to strength,” he says. “By creating a shattering effect in a targeted zone the Pro-Til produces a fine tilth vital for good seed-to-soil contact, with nutrition and moisture easily accessible giving crops the optimum environment to germinate quickly and evenly.” Designed to clear previous crop residue from the seeding zone, the Pro-Til’s leading leg produces a clean strip of friable soil while mineralising nutrients. Ben Knight explains; “The action of the Pro-Til’s front leg creates the perfect nursery seedbed in which to place the seed. “It’s important to ensure seed is placed into the centre of the tilled strip and at a consistent depth. The Pro-Til with its pivoting coulters, all individually hydraulically pressurised, follow the contours of the field and remain in-line with the leading legs even around tight headlands which means we achieve accurate seed placement across the whole field,” he explains. “In one pass, the drill reconsolidates the soil

Even establishment of oilseed rape gives the crop the best chance against pests.

firmly around the seed in two stages, improving seed-to-soil contact further and providing protection from pests. “Another key component of the Mzuri system that makes it so successful on this farm and many others, is its ability to promote even establishment of crops like oilseed rape. In situations where flea beetle are present, the even emergence of the plants means predation is spread evenly, causing less feeding pressure than when plants emerge one by one through uneven seeding depth. The crop is also in a much better condition to grow away from any damage quickly thanks to moisture retention and access to mineralised nitrogen at drilling.”

Further generating rapid, early growth, the Mzuri system advocates band placing fertiliser below the seeding zone to improve efficacy and availability. Mr Knight has found that by applying fertiliser with the Pro-Til’s leading leg below the seed, there is less reliance on rainfall to break down the product, instead it’s placed directly into moisture, right where the new plants are going to need it.”

Targeted cultivation Ben Knight suggests that modern agricultural practices have had an increasingly detrimental effect on soil health from continuous over cultivation and by not replenishing lost nutrients. continued over...

“Soils high in organic matter are more resilient to machinery traffic and are better able to absorb and retain soil moisture. High levels of organic matter can lead to acidification of the soil over time but the Mzuri system gives us the ability to achieve both high organic matter levels and aerated soils. “By only cultivating in bands we can clear crop residue from the seeding area, allow oxygen into the profile, while leaving the strips between undisturbed, thereby retaining their nutrition and structure for later in the season,” he adds. It is this targeted tillage that the manufacturer attributes the Pro-Til’s success in improving degraded soils as part of the wider system. By concentrating the cultivation within carefully placed bands, it’s possible to achieve all the benefits of a cultivated soil while also retaining the structure needed for root development and the weight

resistance that would more often be associated with a min-till system.

Wider rotation As part of an integrated approach to soil health, Mzuri encourages its users to adopt a wider rotation, including cover crops where possible, prior to spring cropping. At Springfield Farm, Ben Knight has been incorporating cover crops into his rotation for a number of years and has seen the benefits stack up. “By providing the perfect environment for crops to thrive, we benefit from the work the crop’s roots do throughout the soil profile. We use cover crops including tillage radish, oats and vetches and try to have a growing plant in the ground for as much of the year as possible. Not only does this harvest as much sunlight as it can, but it also means there is a root structure that penetrates the lower levels of the soil profile which allows water to infiltrate, supports biodiversity and binds the soil aggregates together –

particularly important over winter.” A common establishment pitfall can be a lack of moisture at drilling, either due to prior heavy cultivations or as a result of a rain deficit. Users of the Mzuri strip tillage system will know the manufacturer suggests leaving crop residue on the surface, creating a protective layer of ‘thatch’, preventing moisture loss. “Moisture at planting is key to quick establishment but also to support the crop going forward,” continues Mr Knight. “Managing our crop residue has been one of the single biggest factors in improving our cropping, particularly oilseed rape where early moisture can be critical. “We chop the straw behind the combine and leave the stubble long. Not only does this have the effect of encouraging the seedlings on, but the layer of thatch retains moisture. We haven’t seen an increase in slugs with this method or had a problem with crops breaking through the layer.

“And the long stubble helps to keep pigeons off which is always a bonus.” In situations where the straw must be taken off, particularly in mixed enterprises, Mzuri suggests that returning muck can be a good alternative. Left on the surface, deep working earthworms will drag the matter down where the soil biology can degrade it effectively, releasing nutrients for the growing crop. Mr Knight has found that leaving the previous crop residue on the surface has taken the risk out of spring cropping. “The only thing predictable about weather patterns is their unpredictability, so establishing a spring crop can be seen as too high risk for many to view as a viable option. “Since expanding our rotation, we have required more spring crops. By supporting a soil structure that can let water infiltrate when wet and a protective layer of residue to retain moisture when it comes dry, we are effectively taking the risk out of our spring crops. The direct nature of the drill also means we can get seed in and established quickly and come spring or winter, crops are thriving as a result.”

Row widths The Pro-Til boasts two row width options of 33 and 66cm. Mzuri says that 33cm proves popular with cereal establishment whereas the 66cm wide row suits oilseed rape. “Part of the system is to maximise the amount of light into the lower levels of the crop,” says Mr Knight. “The leaf of the plant is a natural solar panel and needs space to take in as much light as possible throughout the day. “The band placement of seed, especially cereals, allows greater continued over...

light interception through the depth of the canopy. While the flag leaf is considered the most vital for yield for a wheat plant, the lower leaves continue to aid photosynthesis and contribute sugars to ears and grain.” Single and double coulter options can be used to adjust the spacings between rows further, allowing for even greater flexibility. Wider rows have also shown less disease throughout the season, explains Mr Knight. “Increasing the distance between crop rows not only supports higher yields but also aids the movement of air throughout the plants helping to keep the lower leaves and stem bases well ventilated which can reduce the incidence of mildew and eyespot which occur more frequently in humid conditions. “However, increasing the spacing between plants goes beyond light interception and micro climates. In OSR, reducing interplant competition means that the plants have space to branch earlier without bolting for sunlight. This process helps to increase yield through a reduction in apical dominance and a more stable canopy because much of the branching occurs earlier and reducing the stress of a tall, leggy stem. “Trials at Springfield Farm have shown that when compared with standard 33cm rows, our OSR drilled on 66cm row spacing is significantly less likely to lodge and also achieves an uplift in yield. By managing light interception, we are able to produce strong, healthy plants with more pods and carry them through to harvest.”

Pest and weed pressure The Mzuri strip tillage system isn’t complete without the Rezult stubble rake, points out the company. A staple on the manufacturer’s trial farm, the implement is a major tool in Mr Knight’s arsenal against slugs and weed pressure. “The loss of metaldehyde highlights how vulnerable we are. By using the rake as a cultural control method, we are actively reducing slug populations ahead of sowing by breaking the life cycle at the first stage. The heavy-duty tines destroy slug habitats while bringing eggs to the surface where they are exposed and baked in the heat of the day. “By not inverting the soil, we keep any weed burden on the surface rather than mixing it through the profile where we would likely experience multiple emergences. Using the rake fitted with front discs we can generate sufficient tilth to achieve a flush of weeds which can be effectively managed in one go with the sprayer.” ■

Bedfordshire dealer celebrates opening of seventh Country Store

The new Country Store includes plenty of showroom space for farm supplies and sundries, spare parts, and workshop and maintenance equipment.

The opening of Agco main dealer Chandlers new Country Store at its Shefford, Beds depot was celebrated in late June. This brings the number of Chandlers Country Stores to seven, each of which is based at its agricultural machinery depots. These have proved extremely popular with the dealer’s agricultural customers as well as the general public since the first opened at its Belton, Lincs depot in 1990 and the selection of products on offer has increased steadily

responding to customer demand. “We supply a wide range of rural, pet and equine products to suit our local customers, including, dog and cat feed, small holder feed ranges, equine products for the rider and horse - along with Country Clothing and boots, power tools from Milwaukie, powered garden tools and mowers from Honda & Stihl and much much more. It’s said that we well everything from a ‘tin tack to a tractor’, explained Chandlers (Farm Equipment Ltd)

Innovation in vegetable grading equipment boosts Lincolnshire beetroot operation

Lincolnshire grower WF Moore commissioned a new grading line from Haith which features an 1800 wide Supaflow hopper, Haith Evolution cleaner and three Supa-Fill 400 box fillers.

Faced with an increase in demand for its beetroot, WF Moore decided it needed to increase its throughput rates at its on-farm grading facility near Scunthorpe. The company, which was established in 1938, had been using a Haith grading line since 2000 but it wasn’t designed to cope with 50t/ hour. “We’ve enjoyed considerable growth in the past few years,” explains WF Moore director, David Moore. “We grow 5,000t of beetroot here near Scunthorpe and take in a further 5,000t from Somerset, Yorkshire and Lancashire. “It’s graded here and then sent to food processing companies, typically for sale in supermarkets and used in bagged salads. The Haith line we were using was reliable and efficient but not capable of dealing with the amount of throughput we needed to reach.” The company looked at

alternatives but decided to approach Haith for a new grading line. Haith took just three days to install the new modular line, which features an 1,800mm wide Supaflow hopper, Haith Evolution cleaner and three Supa-Fill 400 box fillers. “As you would expect, given 20 years have passed since the original line was installed, the new line offers several improvements compared to the original installation,” says Rob Highfield, Haith’s sales engineer who oversaw the project. “The larger Supaflow hopper offers improved crop flow and quicker unloading times. The Haith Evolution offers exceptional soil removal. The adjustable polyurethane coils after the Evolution are incredibly gentle as are our Supa-Fill 400 fillers, which don’t feature flights like competitor machines, as these could damage the skin of the beetroot.” In just two months Moores has seen a 25 per cent increase

 Moores has reported a 25 per cent increase in throughput of beetroot with the new line.  The new system is more streamlined, easy to use and very accurate.

in throughput and a marked improvement in grading accuracy. “The whole process is much more streamlined and easier to use,” says David Moore. “It’s an incredibly accurate system and very few beetroots carry over to the next grade. We hardly ever have to re-grade, which is excellent. “We’re really impressed with the new multi-separation system; the old one was a set of coils! It really shows you how much investment Haith has put into improving and innovating its offering in the last two decades. The grading system is excellent as are the box fillers.”

As well as delivering immediate improvements Moores’ new line is also designed to be future-proof, adds Rob. “We’ve increased capacity, soil removal, grading accuracy and throughput. We’ve made the line easier to use, by including HMI controls for all functionality, and we’ve considered how WF Moore might grow in the future and made sure this new line is capable of keeping up with them for another 20 years.” ■

Tips for strong OSR establishment this autumn While the importance of establishing oilseed rape in the autumn is well understood, the proper nutritional demands and requirements frequently go underestimated – with a noticeable impact on yield, advises an agronomist.

Timing The ideal timing for establishing OSR for strong growth during winter is in August or the beginning of September. This enables the crop to properly form and lessens the risk of frost damage when temperatures drop. Cabbage stem flea beetle is a major concern for farmers however, particularly during August. OSR crops are at their most vulnerable during emergence, and the prevalence of adult beetles can possibly result in total crop failure. A robust pest management programme is essential – to avoid flea beetles by delaying sowing would be counterproductive, as the crop will not establish properly before winter. “What you ideally want is a nice healthy crop going into winter,” says Yara country agrononomist, Natalie

Wood (right). “This is important so that the OSR can cope with the stresses encountered during winter such as low temperatures, potential water logging and frost damage.”

says Natalie. “This gives the crop an extra boost in the autumn when it’s trying to get up and away quickly, making sure it’s got everything it needs.”

Placement Placing the fertiliser in bands helps ensure nutrients are located where they are needed, helping crops to achieve vigorous early growth. This also boosts the efficiency of uptake – by applying fertiliser in bands, farmers can use rates of about half of their usual autumn broadcast applications, with no reduction in N response. Placing fertiliser along with the seed itself ensures that the nutrients are exactly where they are required for optimum uptake. When placed above, the seed will grow through the fertiliser, increasing the level of nutrient uptake. “Placement is particularly important for phosphate,” she points out. “Phosphate is very immobile in the soil, only able to move less than 1mm. The closer the fertiliser is to the seed, the easier the plant can access it.” Strategically placing fertiliser also helps reduce costs due to requiring a

Nutrition Nitrogen is an important nutrient to ensure strong establishment. The amount of nitrogen taken up by the crop before winter is about 60–100kg/ha, supplied by the soil, as well as fertilisers. If you’re in a Nitrate Vulnerable Zone (NVZ) then regulations only allow 30kg N/ha, so it’s worth making adjustments if necessary. Weather conditions, rainfall level, soil health, and temperature are also important considerations when applying N. To achieve excellent quality and yields, the best option is to apply an NPK product. “Phosphate is essential for strong root growth and shoot development,”

OSR crops are at their most vulnerable during emergence.

lower amount per hectare. Instead of 30kg N/ha, about 20kg can be used due to the close proximity. “If you’re concerned about your OSR crop being a bit patchy or underwhelming, it’s important to invest time and resources to give it a good start in the autumn,” adds Natalie Wood. “Different strategies and products can help avoid the various pitfalls that often delay OSR establishment. Strong OSR growth in the winter is possible with the right tools and approach.” ■

New dealership in Dumfries and Galloway Lockerbie based RC Dalgliesh has been appointed to the Strautmann dealer network by Opico. R C Dalgliesh Limited is an agricultural engineering business with 35 years’ experience of sales, service and repair of new and used agricultural and horticultural machinery. Opico’s sales manager, Charles Bedforth said: “Robbie Dalgliesh and his team have a proven history of selling and servicing forage and feeder wagons. They cover a mixed farming area, with a strong dairy tradition, and we are delighted to have them on board.”

Flexible container volume for mixer wagons Bernard van Maschinenfabrik & Co. KG (BvL) has introduced a new Vario Volume extension system as an option for almost all its range of trailed mixer wagons. The Vario Volume attachment is hydraulically raised to increase the container volume by approximately 30cm. This effectively increases the volume in a twin auger mixer by up to 3.5m3. When the feed is mixed and chopped, the Vario Volume extension can then be lowered again in order to be able to drive into low or restricted height buildings if necessary. For components that require a lot of space when mixing, such as straw bales, the Vario Volume is a useful aid as it simply and effectively prevents feed components from spilling over the container edge. The new BvL Vario Volume extension can also be fitted to feed mixers with a rear-mounted 2.0 straw blower. The straw blower is mechanically driven and has a high throughput of 300kg of straw per minute, which can be thrown up to 30m. The stone trap and the softstart aid round off the straw blower product range. ■

RC Dalgliesh managing director Robbie Dalgliesh added; “The Strautmann range of forage wagons and diet feeders is a valuable addition to our machinery portfolio. We pride ourselves on supplying our customers with first class service and support. Our fully trained mechanics are already up-to-speed with the Strautmann product range. I’m looking forward to getting the machines out to our customers for demonstrations.” ■ From left: RC Dalgliesh sales manager, Andy Mitchell; Opico territory manager, Colin Grigor; RC Dalgliesh managing director, Robbie Dalgliesh.

Farming gets smarter with ‘AI at the edge’ Innovation specialist Cambridge Consultants is bringing Artificial Intelligence (AI) to the edge of the network, using low-cost, lowpower devices to perform complex machine learning tasks. ‘AI at the edge’ will enable AI to solve many of today’s real-world challenges, out in the field. The approach is demonstrated by Fafaza, a precision crop spraying technology that performs plant recognition and individual treatment in real time. Precision agriculture means harnessing technology to optimise production. It relies on precise granular data at the individual plant level, on the scale of large industrial farms, supporting everything from weed identification to crop health and yield estimation. This understanding can then inform real-time actions, for example the application of herbicide to an individual weed. This is the challenge that Fafaza addresses: deploying AI ‘at the edge’, on the back of a moving tractor and without the need for connectivity. Fafaza is designed to spot broad-leaved weeds among grass and to treat individual target leaves with herbicide. The system identifies, classifies and applies treatment in real time, while moving at tractor speed. The Cambridge Consultants team chose this tough challenge to demonstrate the potential of state-of-the-art machine vision and AI. Although AI techniques have been able to achieve plant recognition for a number of years, the challenge has been in moving from powerful specialist platforms with delayed processing of data, to processing and acting in real time. To be technically practical, a system must be fast enough to distinguish and identify plants using ambient light and to apply treatment while the plant is still in view. To be commercially viable, a system must be rugged and affordable. Fafaza has been developed to run on off-the-shelf components, including a low-cost camera that can capture images at around 20 frames per second and an economical AI computer platform. Niall Mottram, head of industrial and energy at Cambridge Consultants said:

“Connectivity is generally poor in rural environments and the ability to run complex machine learning based applications on a tractor implement opens up many new opportunities to collect, process and act on data in real time. Fafaza demonstrates how AI at the edge approaches can become practical, cost effective and deployable today.” ■ Precision agriculture means harnessing technology to optimise production.

New deal for Warwickshire and north Oxon tractor sales LQG Agri has been appointed as a McCormick tractor dealer for Warwickshire and north Oxfordshire, in the latest appointment of key new dealerships in a recruitment drive that began at Lamma 2019. Based in Upper Quinton near Stratford-upon-Avon, the dealership jointly owned by the Lockwood family and former JCB sales manager Malcolm Davies, chose McCormick to expand its product portfolio for the area. “Tractors of 100hp to 150hp will be the key market segment for us – we now have 130hp X6.440 and 140hp X7.440 demonstrators available to try out – but the McCormick range offers a

broad choice of products up to 310hp to suit many different users, from dairy and other livestock farms, through mixed enterprise and arable units to smallholders, councils and amenity contractors,” said Malcom. “Our service and repair technicians will soon be getting up to speed on the McCormick products and our stores staff are now adding Argo Parts service consumables and parts to their stock to cater for existing and new McCormick users.” As an added-value intiative, all new McCormick tractors will be fitted with telematics, a data gathering system to help schedule convenient routine

Multiple uses for high performance fans High performance fans and blowers from SPAL Automotive are not just effective in their primary role of hydraulics cooling or for HVAC in cabs, they also have vital qualities which can be adapted for use in kit such as seeders. With operators aiming to reduce the time a vehicle spends in the field while maximising the

greatest area coverage possible, extra-long booms have been developed to scatter the seed which requires an effective delivery system. SPAL blowers are calibrated to produce the right airflow and pressure to disperse the seed into the pipes along the boom to be pumped out firmly into the

trenches for planting with extreme accuracy. This prevents wastage and ensures quality is maintained as the kernels are kept intact, says the company. ■ Fans from SPAL Automotive are not just useful in cooling or air-con systems they can also be adapted for use in precision applications.

Ground breaking crop yield insurance launched Farmers can now protect themselves against poor crop yields with a ground breaking insurance policy that will compensate them for production shortfalls. Crop Shortfall Insurance, from rural insurance specialist Lycetts and Farmers & Mercantile Insurance Brokers (FMIB), will automatically trigger pay-outs to farmers if extreme weather causes yields in their region to fall below the historic average. The policy is Britain’s first ever to insure shortfalls in cereal and oilseed rape crops. “At a time when arable farmers are facing increasing market volatility, unpredictable weather patterns, along with uncertainty over postBrexit subsidies, there is increasing demand for financial protection against burgeoning risks,” said Lycetts rural divisional director Rupert Wailes-Fairbairn (right). Crop Shortfall Insurance can cover either a farms’ total crop

output or individual crops, such as winter oilseed rape, winter wheat or winter and spring barley. Underwritten with capacity rated AA (very strong) by Fitch and Aa3 (excellent) by Moody’s, the policy indemnifies farmers for up to a quarter of the shortfall of their projected crop

production (sum insured) for the harvest year in question. The index policy is based on Defra data, with a deductible of either 10 or 15 per cent of production. The payout is calculated on the reduction in output volume, based on the fall in regional yield for the harvest year, relative to the regional yield over the last eight years. Unlike traditional insurance, where insurers must survey the damage, it allows for a quicker, and more

objective, claims settlement process. FMIB’s Will Kendrick added: “The feedback we’ve been receiving for some time from our agricultural client base is that sector volatility is having a seriously detrimental impact on long-term planning, investment and business sustainability. “Crop Shortfall Insurance offers peace of mind, sitting at the heart of urgently called for risk management solutions to help mitigate the worst excesses of this volatile environment.”■

New investment in UK for agricultural component supplier Established agricultural components supplier Kramp UK will move to a new warehouse and office suite in early 2020. After 23 years at its current location in Biggleswade, Kramp UK has seen many industry changes, including significant market growth, increased retail presence, and a move to online sales. All of these factors have led to the requirement for a modern and bigger warehouse. It was critical for Kramp Groep to retain its highly-skilled workforce, and so the decision was made to find a suitable location for the

new warehouse and offices in Biggleswade. Construction on the new building will start in Summer 2019. Located just a short distance from the existing facility, the new 14,000m2 warehouse will be three times the size of the company’s current warehouse, with the capacity to store twice the number of items. This allows an improved service and faster delivery to customers in the agricultural, forest and grasscare, OEM and construction markets. Sales director UK and Ireland, Des Boyd, comments: “We’ve seen significant growth in the agricultural

are looking at alternative markets. Kramp Groep, however, has seen markets in the UK and Ireland go from strength to strength. With the increased collaboration between manufacturers and Kramp Groep the future holds many exciting opportunities in the UK and Ireland.” ■

New specifications for potato handling equipment Belgian manufacturer AVR has developed a new Falcon receiving hopper designed for export markets and medium-sized farms. With its 4m bunker bottom and 1.85m wide roller set the AVR Falcon 1800 is the smaller version of the 2445 and 24-60. The receiving hopper can contain the capacity of a 2-row trailed harvester. The machine is designed so that it can be transported in a standard truck trailer or in a container. There is the option for an additional pre-grader roller set in the receiving hoppers segment. With this second roller set, different products can be sorted in size during storage or processing. The distance between the rollers is adjustable from 2065mm. The soft PU-spiral cleaning rollers are product-friendly and clean effectively, says AVR. The spiral shape and the variable even and odd rollers contribute to a very high cleaning capacity of the Falcon 1800 receiving hopper. The distance between the cleaning rollers is hydraulically

adjustable from 5-45mm. The drop height from bunker bottom to roll set is adjustable in combination with the angle of the roller set. If intensive cleaning is required, a higher drop height can be created by flattening the roller set. There are several features to ensure gentle handling of the crop including incised filling rubber and the double entry rubbers to prevent product from spilling out. Solid side walls are mounted to the left and right of the bunker floor, to ensure a large buffer volume. The conveyor belts quickly remove the cleaned product and can optionally be equipped with extra fall breaker fingers on the outlet side, so that drop heights are reduced.

New dealer for Northamptonshire McCormick tractors are now available throughout Northants from the Venture Farm Machinery team (l-r) business partners Jim Pearson and Nigel Gardiner, and parts sales manager Derek Lispcombe.

Being appointed to the sales, service and parts dealer network for McCormick tractors is the icing on the cake for business partners Nigel Gardiner and Jim Pearson – and they have local farmers to thank for the opportunity. “We weren’t looking for a tractor franchise at this time in our company’s development,” says Venture Farm Machinery’s Nigel Gardiner. “But the level of interest shown in the McCormick tractors we borrowed

for our Krone grass machinery demonstration set off a lightbulb moment; we had a long discussion with the McCormick people the next day and everything came together. “They wanted a dealer on our patch and we could see how the McCormick tractors would suit all farming and non-farming requirements in the area while complementing our equipment franchises.” Nigel Gardiner and fellow director

Jim Pearson formed Venture Farm Machinery three years ago after they were made redundant from a large agricultural equipment dealership when several branches were closed. They recruited colleague Derek Lispcombe from the same group to draw on his long standing parts management experience and soon were appointed to handle sales and after-sales support for Amazone, Krone and Opico implements, along with Kidd and Tanco implements, and HM trailers. Together with parts, tools and accessories from the Granit range and complementary suppliers, business soon took off. “A number of people wonder how it’s possible to set-up a new dealership and acquire such leading franchises,” says Mr Gardiner. “But in each case we were in the right place at the right time with the right experience when the manufacturers

needed local representation.” McCormick manufacturer Argo Tractors’ Ben Agar says the track record of the people in the business makes him confident of their continued success with the McCormick tractor franchise covering Northamptonshire. “Jim and Nigel have proven sales and sales management ability, and Derek’s 20-years experience makes him the go-to man for parts, so they have the complementary skills needed for the business to do well,” he says. As for the McCormick product range, Jim Pearson believes the tractors are under-rated: “With compact tractors from 43hp, through a good choice of mid-range models, up to the big six-cylinder machines there’s something for everyone in the McCormick line-up,” he maintains. “The cab designs offer a lovely working environment with modern features, fit and finish, and they’re built using top-quality components, either manufactured in the Argo Tractors factories in northern Italy or sourced from renowned suppliers such as ZF and Carraro. ■

Trailers

Has your trailer passed the Tilly test? More than 5,000 trailers have now been inspected and certified as being in roadworthy condition through the Tilly Trailer initiative. Clemmie Gleeson reports. The scheme calls for all farm trailers to undergo an annual 18-point inspection by qualified land-based engineers to ensure their safety. The initiative was launched by Jane Gurney and her family following the death of her son Harry Christian-Allan who was tragically killed in 2014 when the tractor and trailer he was driving crashed into a bridge. The trailer was later found to be poorly maintained and the brakes were faulty. The Tilly 18-point inspection profile was developed in conjunction with the Health and Safety Executive (HSE) and BCH Road Traffic Policing unit. It is intended for trailers capable of carrying loads of 10t and over although it can be applied to any braked items typically found on a farm. A Tilly inspection is carried out on the farm allowing the opportunity for every trailer to be inspected to the Tilly standard by an authorised mechanic either working within a larger dealership or independently. One key characteristic of the inspection is that all wheels are removed to allow the brakes to be fully assessed. “It is the only way to really know your machine,” said Jane. Another checkpoint is the towing eye, she added. “The towing eye is what keeps your rig together. If there is more than 10 per cent wear or it has changed shape it should be replaced not repaired.” Trailers that pass the test are given a ‘Tilly pass’ sticker certificate to be displayed on the trailer’s tailgate.

exceeded ten-fold and in July this number reached 5,050. “We have had tremendous support from trailer manufacturers,” said Jane. “By the autumn we will have a total of 250 outlets including dealerships and independent land-based engineers signed up to the scheme.” Another success was two-days’ training which was attended by 150 police officers from 14 different

forces which covered trailer safety and what officers should look for. “At the moment it is law to properly maintain and check your trailers but it is not law for someone to check you are doing it,” she added. She was hopeful this would change in the future and that the Trailer and Towing Safety All Party Parliamentary Group launched in April this year would ‘move things forward’. ■ The scheme’s mascot and logo is Tilly the Beagle who belonged to Harry Christian-Allan.

Harry Christian-Allan

The Tilly 18-point inspection profile was developed with the Health & Safety Executive (HSE) and BCH Road traffic Policing unit.

Trailers that pass the test are given a ‘Tilly pass’ sticker certificate to be displayed on the trailer’s tailgate. The 2019 Tilly is red and white but the colour will change each year. The inspection is recorded in detail on a uniquely numbered maintenance sheet which includes the certificate number and chassis number. This record is retained in triplicate with copies for the farmer and mechanic and the third copy being returned and retained by Tilly Pass where a hard copy is stored and the details are also entered on a database.

Exceeded target The Tilly scheme launched in April 2018 and Jane told Farmers Guide that she initially set a target of having 100 trailers inspected by the following autumn. However that target was

The tragic death of Harry ChristianAllan prompted his mother Jane Gurney to investigate trailer safety and ultimately to launch the Tilly scheme. Harry was a 19-year-old law student. He was working for a St Neot’s based farming and haulage company during the summer holidays when the tractor and trailer he was driving crashed into a bridge on the A1 on 1st August 2014. He died later in Addenbrokes hospital. On inspection after the accident the trailer was found to be poorly maintained and have defective brakes. GW Topham was found guilty of failing to ensure the health and safety at work of its employees and for not maintaining the trailer to a sufficient standard. The company was fined £400,000.

Trailers Top team supplies trailer technology ADR UK Tyremart Ltd is part of the international ADR Group which is the leading manufacturer and supplier of agricultural axles and suspension in the world. The company is a key supplier of running gear to many of the leading trailer manufacturers in the UK and has been in business since 1979, and currently has 15 employees. Customer service is one of the main drivers for ADR UK Tyremart, and forming close collaborative relationships with customers is key to the business, says the company. This understanding of the customer needs enables ADR UK Tyremart to work closely with

trailer manufacturers to develop running gear solutions for a variety of applications. With the back up of the ADR technical team in Italy, ADR UK Tyremart is able to undertake technical projects from initial advice through to completion. There is a vast array of running gear products at the 5,380ft2 premises in Long Bennington, Newark and this is complemented by a 3-man engineering and fabrication team giving the company the ability to build up axles and suspensions into units. This is especially useful for customers who have capacity issues, or customers refurbishing and

feature the latest teknoax technology with a monobloc forged spindle, large bearings and improvements in seals and tolerances. This range of axles has proved very popular with trailer manufacturers. ■

Tried and tested trailers Bailey trailers was founded by Tom Bailey in Lincolnshire in 1982. The company belief is that in order for farmers to rely on equipment it must be made using the most advanced technology, components and processes, complimented by meticulous design and rigorous testing. Many of the innovations in a Bailey trailer have been introduced

as a result of consultation with farmers. The premise is simple – if the farmer’s idea is right and it works then Bailey will fit it, says the company. Features include bevelled edges, which eliminates materials gathering on the trailer and the swan neck design of the pipe holder, which channels all pipes and cables away from the rear tractor link arms.

From arable to vegetables or silage, with more than 100 configurations available, Bailey offers a comprehensive range of trailers. Backing everything up is a network of more than 100 dealers covering all corners of the UK. ■

Agricultural vehicles which do not travel faster than 40kph (25mph) are required to have a minimum braking efficiency of 25 per cent. Agricultural vehicles travelling faster than 40kph will need higher specification brakes, including ABS, dual-line fail safe braking systems and a minimum brake efficiency of 45 per cent. In general, agricultural trailers which do not travel faster than 40kph must: • Be capable of applying the brakes to at least two wheels

on a trailer with less than four wheels, and to at least four wheels on a trailer with more than four wheels • Have a parking brake capable of preventing at least two of the wheels from revolving when the trailer is not being pulled • Achieve a brake efficiency of at least 25 per cent. In general, agricultural trailers which do travel faster than 40kph must: • Be capable of applying the

With more than 100 configurations available Bailey offers a comprehensive range of trailers.

Testing your brakes Trailer brakes are a wearing part and need adjustment to keep performing well, highlights the NFU’s ‘Farm Vehicle Health Check’. The standard at which brakes operate is known as the braking efficiency. Measurement of braking efficiency requires specialised equipment not normally present in farm workshops, but may be available from a local approved brake test provider. Information on dealers who can carry out brake testing is available from BAGMA.

Ploughs & Land Presses

Power on the land Ploughs and presses are the topics for this month’s Power on the Land, brought to you by Mike Williams. An Amazone Cayros XMS series mounted plough with 5f.

This year’s Cayros plough news is a special finance deal offering an extra £250 plus VAT discount per pair of furrows for customers buying a new plough before the end of November.

Semi-mounted

A major development in Amazone’s plough range was the addition of the Cayros mounted series in 2016 following Amazone’s purchase of Vogel & Noot, one of the leading plough manufacturers. Last year Amazone extended the Cayros range with the addition of a 2f model for tractors as small as 50hp. The maximum tractor size is 120hp for the Cayros M series with 2–4 furrows, increasing to 140hp for the 3 and 4f XM series and to 200hp for XMS models up to 5f. The top Cayros models are the XS series with up to 6f and limited to 260hp, and XS Pro ploughs have a 380hp limit.

This year’s new arrivals in the Lemken range include the Diamant 16 series semi-mounted ploughs available with between 5–9f. The equipment choices include either manual or hydraulic furrow width adjustment, 100 and 120cm interbody clearances are available and list prices start at £29,322 for a 5-furrow version. The semimounted plough range also includes the EuroTitan wagon ploughs with from 9 to 12 furrows based on a design that simplifies changing between onland and in-furrow working. Lemken’s mounted reversible ploughs are the Juwel 7 series with 3–5f, increasing to a maximum of 7f for the Juwel 8 series. Furrow widths can be mechanically or hydraulically adjusted and the Turn Control Pro or TCP feature available on Juwel 8 series ploughs includes Isobus control.

Structural strength One of the special features on Pottinger Servo mounted ploughs from the 35 series upwards is the use of internal support bars to provide increased structural strength for the main beam, increasing the resistance to flexing by up to 25 per cent. Servo mounted ploughs are available with from 2–6f for tractors with maximum outputs from 140–350hp, equipment choices include overload protection with hydraulic trip legs, and hydraulically operated furrow width adjustment is available. The Pottinger plough range also includes the 6.50 semi-mounted series with 6–9f to work with 360hp maximum. Interbody spacing on the semi-mounted ploughs is 102cm, the beam cross section is 180mm square and the under-frame clearance is 80.9cm.

Mounted ploughs New mounted ploughs with 250hp maximum tractor power have been added to the Kverneland range. The previous power limit was 200hp, but the new ES250 and LS250 plough series have been designed to cope with the extra power available on many farms. The latest ploughs are available in 5, 5+1 and 6f versions, and the LS specification includes

shearbolt protection while the ES version features auto-reset. Kverneland also offers the 2500B series reversible ploughs for mid-range tractors. Designed for up to 150hp, they are available from 3–5 furrows and have 80cm of underbeam clearance. The range also includes semi-mounted ploughs, and Kverneland is also a leading manufacturer of conventional ploughs including special match ploughs with a long record of competition successes.

Reversible The Maschio Gaspardo machinery range distributed by Opico includes the Unico reversible ploughs from 3–5 furrows. The design includes a 140mm x 140mm reinforced main beam, and the main pivot shaft for the headstock is made from high grade steel with 100mm diameter for up to 3+1 furrows, increasing to 120mm for the larger ploughs. The standard inter-body clearance is 95cm and the underbeam clearance is 80cm, with longer legs available to increase the beam clearance to 87cm. The standard specification includes furrow width settings from 12–18in and mechanical or hydraulic adjustment of the front furrow width uses a parallelogram system allowing changes to be made quickly, and the hydraulically operated plough alignment included on 4f upwards simplifies lifting and turnover.

Ploughs & Land Presses ...from previous page

The comprehensive list of semimounted ploughs includes the MultiLeader and Vari-Leader series with 6–8f for tractors with maximum outputs from 270–360hp, the Manager and Vari Manager ploughs with 5–8f have power limits in the 149–239hp range, and the maximum power limit for the Challenger and Vari Challenger series is 450hp. All the semi-mounted ploughs have 80cm underbeam clearance. Multi Master and Vari Master mounted ploughs with 3–7 furrows have power limits ranging from 90hp to a 385hp maximum with 7f, and the underbeam clearances are either 75 or 80cm.

Heaviest press Vaderstad’s RexiusTwin is said to be the heaviest press on the market, suitable for heavy or light soils and capable of making a seedbed in a single pass on ploughed land with typical working speeds in the 10–13kph range. The press is available in 5 sizes with working widths between 4.5–10.3m, and weights range from 7,400–15,000kg or about 1,660kg/m. The minimum tractor size is 140hp for the 4.5m model. The RexiusTwin

pressing action starts with a set of heavy-duty spring tines spaced at 20cm with a 15cm maximum working depth. These are followed by the clod crushing and levelling action of the CrossBoard, with the rear press wheels cutting, crushing and levelling as they consolidate.

Rollers and press rings Cultivation equipment from

Cambridgeshire based Tillso includes Diamond rollers with steel press rings for consolidation. The rollers, which are available for retro-fitting, come in 550, 600 and 700mm sizes and the ring spacing can be varied to suit the tine position of a linked cultivator. The rings are designed for effective selfcleaning and are shaped to provide a clod cutting and crushing action with side pressure to aid consolidation.

Diamond roller weight per metre depends on the ring size and spacing, but an example is 200kg/m for 600mm rings at 20cm intervals. The Tillso range also includes the Flex-Till flexible rubber roller capable of working in soil with higher moisture levels. It has a ‘toothed’ surface for improved self-cleaning while leaving an indented soil surface for improved moisture retention. ■

The RexiusTwin press from Vaderstad is available with 4.5–10.3m working widths.

Ploughs & Land Presses

Norfolk farm firms up with new press The 7f LO and Kverneland double press leaves a firm finish, ready for drilling. Kevin Williamson (above) says the outfit is capable of 18–21ha/day.

In search of more output, Norfolk farming firm JW Coe & Company moved to on-land ploughing, from working in the furrow. The move included investment in a new Kverneland double packer, supplied by local dealer TNS at Sculthorpe. The 1,800ha business, based at Church Farm, Fring, is a keen advocate

of ploughing, particularly with land recently taken over by the expanding business. “We’re addressing historical compaction and pan issues by deep ploughing and pressing to hit the reset button,” explains operator Kevin Williamson. “And with our recent change of plough and press,

the output and quality of finish has improved considerably.” Running on-land has removed tractor weight from the furrow bottom, and with a Fendt MT943 Vario replacing a wheeled Fendt 936, Mr Williamson says the 7f LO plough and double packer are easily handled. With around 485ha ploughed annually,

the business is focused on spreading its operating costs and working more efficiently, while seeking yield improvement. “With the plough set at 18in furrow widths to match the double press, and working from 9-12in deep, the MT943 runs easily at 9kph – it’s quite a fuelefficient cultivations system,” he says. While the lion’s share of soil across the farm is a blowing, sandy silt that can also pack tightly, there are pockets of heavy land, where the extra power comes in handy with the larger plough. “Output is around 18–21ha/day with the seven furrow plough and press, and we’ve found the extra tractor power to be a welcome boost on the hillier parts of the farm,” says Mr Williamson. “We’re now getting a really clean, firm finish, that is good enough to go straight in with the drill on our lighter soils.” ■

front and via the transport wheel at the rear, either using a hydraulic/ mechanical (standard equipment) or optionally via a hydraulic/electrical mechanism. The relevant shut-off valve is positioned to either a Set or Work mode and can be set manually or via a spool valve operated from the tractor seat. Launched this year, the Diamant 16 is a new addition to Lemken’s Diamant plough range. The ‘OptiLine’ feature provides the first, and currently only, adjustment system for this type of plough designed to prevent lateral pull during ploughing – a new feature that has already been awarded a DLG Silver medal. The range of applications for this plough has also been broadened to cater for larger tractors with greater pulling power. The Diamant 11 range traction increase system has been expanded by a feature for reducing pressure at the headlands, contributing to even greater fuel savings. This allows higher system pressures, which result in

even more weight being shifted from the plough and front tractor axle to the rear tractor axle. As a result, the tractor/plough combination gains even greater pulling force. The dimensions of all main bearings have been enlarged and the on-land version has also been updated, allowing the implement to be used by tractors with external widths of up to four metres. This ensures that the wheels always maintain a sufficient distance from the furrow edges, even in difficult conditions. The Diamant 16 features hydraulic depth adjustment, which is set by the three-point linkage at the

Furrow press Another Lemken product proving popular with British farmers is the FlexPack furrow press. Contrary to conventional furrow presses that have a fixed working width, the FlexPack adjusts itself automatically to the working width of the plough. There is no risk of double packing when the plough is used at reduced working widths either. The FlexPack is available on the Juwel 7 in 4f format and Juwel 8 model of plough from 4–6f with shear bolt leg protection. Lemken UK’s Paul Creasy commented that the FlexPack has

Proven Versatility

been a very successful product in the UK since its launch in 2013. “The press has found favour with contractors and large scale farmers wanting to move machinery over great distances who find traditional trailed plough presses time consuming to move. “The other great advantage is every part of the field is pressed. Trailed plough presses don’t tend to plough field headlands, just the fieldwork, whereas the FlexPack will press everything that the plough turns over leaving an even consolidated finish for the next field operation.” Staggered pairs of packer rings with a diameter of 60cm and a V-profile prevent clogging during cultivation. They provide a good packing effect without risk of sinking too deep on light soils. For good reconsolidation, the pressure load on the FlexPack can be adjusted hydraulically to suit soil type and conditions for best results. When working in conjunction with the Juwel 8 TCP (Turn Control Pro) with Isobus connectivity, the pressure can be controlled from the tractor cab. ■

From ploughed to seedbed in one pass RexiusTwin is the heaviest furrow cultivator on the market, available in working widths from 4.5 to 10.3 metres. It offers impressive results in both the heaviest and lightest soils. RexiusTwin cuts, crushes, levels, and consolidates the soil in a single pass whilst maintaining soil structure and creating a weatherproof surface.

VARI-LEADER High output ploughing

The Pottinger Servo 45M.

Investment in wearing part technology Pottinger may be more readily associated with grassland equipment but the company has been a plough manufacturer for 42 years, having acquired the German plough manufacturer Landsberg am Lech in 1975. Today the Pottinger Servo plough range is manufactured at the companyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s modern facility in Vodnany, Czech Republic. The range encompasses models from 2-9f with fully mounted and semi mounted models available. The inside of the beam on Servo 35 and 45 ploughs is strengthened by two bolted reinforcement bars. This increases the resistance to flexing by up to 25 per cent and

forms a high-strength unit. Wearing metal plays an important part in the purchase of any soil engaging implement so Pottinger has made significant investment in plough wearing part technology. Since 2013 all its plough wearing parts have been manufactured in its Vodnany production facility. This facility uses a carbonising process that reduces friction on soil engaging parts and increases the potential service life of components by up to 40 per cent. When combined with its vacuum hardening process, Pottinger says its plough range is equipped with the highest possible quality of wearing parts. â&#x2013;

On Land Operation

VARI-LEADER and MULTI-LEADER semi-mounted reversible ploughs from KUHN offer high output ploughing with exceptional manoeuvrability at the headlands. The large offset capability contributes to the option of on land functionality, creating added versatility and performance for this range.

Drilling options increase The new Cirrus-CC drills from Amazone come in working widths from 4–6m and offer individual placement of two different materials. The Cirrus-CC features a 4,000-litre pressurised tank with two electric metering units but, in addition to the Single-Shoot system on the Cirrus-C, the new Cirrus-CC is equipped with a second conveying line and the additional FerTeC single disc coulters in front of the tyre packer. So two different materials (seed or fertiliser) can be sown at different seed rates and placed in different seed furrows. With the Cirrus-CC, the following combinations are possible: Sowing of just one seed variety via the RoTeC pro or TwinTeC coulters Sowing seed and fertiliser (or a second crop) in the same seed furrow via the Single-Shoot system Sowing seed and fertiliser (or a second crop) in two different seed furrows utilising Double-Shoot mode A combination of both SingleShoot and Double-Shoot modes

For the operator, these different combinations result in a variety of options. Due to the alternative placement position, for instance, significantly larger amounts of fertiliser can be applied in addition to the seed when required. But there is also the possibility of combining the fertiliser application in both Single-Shoot and Double-Shoot, therefore a small amount of fertiliser can be placed directly with the grain to boost plant growth. The remainder is placed via the FerTeC coulters to the side and underneath of the seed row to avoid any burning of the seed. Furthermore, due to the FerTeC coulters, a mix of seed sizes can be established significantly easier. Using this technology, fine seeds

Amazone Cirrus-CC drills offer an additional ‘conveying concept’ which allows the individual placement of two different materials.

can be kept separate from coarser seeds, and light dependent germinating seeds can effectively be sown separately at different placement depths from those requiring a deeper drilling depth. If needed, a third crop can also be metered and applied via the onboard GreenDrill 500. The double seed tank has two metering units and calibration is

done with the aid of the optional TwinTerminal 3.0 located on the tractor. This takes away the need to climb up and down from the cab. Also, the application rates and the rotation speeds of the two metering units are very clearly displayed on the Isobus terminal. A change in seed rate of either metering units is also possible from the cab. ■

Muck & Slurry

30 years of slurry know-how celebrated by specialist Suffolk-based Tramspread not only manufactures and supplies a range of slurry handling equipment - the kit is also used every day by its own contracting division. David Williams reports. Tramspread, near Stowmarket, Suffolk is owned and run by the Baker family which started the business in 1989. The company name is borrowed from the first product designed and manufactured by the business when founder Terry Baker worked at a nearby mixed farm with a sizeable pig herd and poultry unit. Disposing of slurry was a time consuming business and restricted by weather on the heavy local soils, he explained. “In those days we knew slurry had nutritional value but we couldn’t easily quantify it so, although we had our own arable land for application, we had to find ways to dispose of the excess when crops were too high to drive on.” Liquid was applied through a slurry tanker armed with a splash plate distributor from which the spread width was approximately 6m. “I could see a solution for year around application if we could drive in the tramlines, but to do this required a spread width of 12m,” he said. “So I came up with an idea to fit two splash plates 6m apart and built an applicator to fit our tanker. One of the problems was splitting the flow equally between the two applicators and a pair of road cones was sacrificed to provide two nozzles which squirted slurry onto the spreader plates.”

Practical solution The idea worked allowing slurry to be applied evenly to growing crops and an improved version was produced. There was nothing else similar available at that time and the principle

was patented and the product was given the name Tramspread. Local farmers and contractors heard about the device and a business built up supplying the units locally. A local company offered Terry the opportunity to display the Tramspread spreader unit on its stand at the Smithfield Show and neighbouring exhibitor Bauer was impressed by the product and offered Terry the Bauer franchise. Terry could see advantages in direct slurry application through an umbilical system; saving the need for heavy tankers to travel on the fields. He designed and built his own unit with the Tramspread distributor for mounting on the rear of a tractor. With demand for slurry application growing he and his son Larry set up Tramspread Contracting Ltd and built a second umbilical applicator to offer a service to farmers. “I didn’t know if it would succeed long-term when we started, but as pig farmers looked for more efficient means of disposing and making use of their slurry we offered a practical solution and the business grew.” Terry and Larry were keen to improve application techniques further and, in 2008, they added flow measurement in combination with field mapping. “We couldn’t measure the nutrient content as we spread, but we could provide a print-out displaying the total volume applied to each area. Having slurry samples analysed at a local laboratory kept us well ahead of other companies in

Tramspread developed its self-contained Contractors High Speed Trailer Pumping Unit for its own use, but the practical design has made it equally popular with slurry application contractors and large farms across the UK. The standard specification includes an integral slurry pump, a high capacity compressor to blow out and empty the slurry hoses after use and space for two 1,000m hose reels all on a twin-axle trailer.

 One of the latest Tramspread 24m dribble bars. A new foldable section on each boom end allows the bar to operate at 18m application width for 36m tramlines. It also provides break-back protection.  Tramspread’s unique design includes independent height adjustment of the linkagemounted frame and the boom, allowing the umbilical hose to be trailed low to the ground or higher to reduce crop damage. Each side of the boom has individual angle adjustment allowing compensation for slopes.

providing customers with accurate application information at that time,” explained Larry. From 2010 the company moved to dribble bar application for greater accuracy and built its own aluminium version to save weight and improve performance. Now it manufactures and supplies a range of working widths incorporating Vogelsang or Joskin slurry distributors, depending on size. For its own contracting operation various widths are used in the autumn when travel isn’t restricted to tramlines, but from spring onward it runs a fleet of four 24m applicators which travel all over eastern England and East Anglia, last year applying in excess of 325,000m3 of slurry. The Bakers developed a self-contained application system including the tractor with a mounted 24m dribble bar, and a trailer incorporating a Tramspread slurry pump, an engine-driven compressor and 3,000m of slurry hose on reels manufactured in-house to their own specification. “Each applicator is sent out with two operators, but because the units are self-contained there is only one tractor needed which reduces costs,” said Larry. “The tractor tows the whole outfit to the site, lays out the hose and spreads the slurry. A key part of the

Tramspread has seen demand for its portable slurry pumps increase to approximately one per month. Power is from new FPT engines, or second-hand combine engines can often be supplied to reduce the cost.

design is that the tractor’s rear hitch is available to tow the trailer even with the dribble bar mounted whereas other systems don’t allow that so a second tractor is needed.”

New technology Keen to be at the forefront with new technology Tramspread worked for several years with John Deere, testing slurry constituent sensing systems. “Farmers are asking for accurate information regarding application to meet stringent regulations and John Deere’s manure sensing system constantly measures and records content of nutrients such as Nitrogen and the operator can set a required application rate for one constituent and the tractor’s travel speed can adjust automatically to maintain it. This is the sort of technology we are keen to work with as we know customers value it.” Larry commented that a significant factor speeding up introduction of new machinery and technology has been increased numbers of anaerobic

digesters throughout the UK. This has brought more money into the industry and increased expectations regarding application accuracy and record keeping, he pointed out. Looking to the future Terry expects dribble bars and trailing shoe applicators to be in high demand to replace splash plates as new regulations come into force by 2025, and demand for remote controlled pump sets has increased. “Now almost all have remote control whereas just five years ago only one in five had it specified,” he said. “It’s mainly due to higher diesel costs and for operator convenience.” Another product supplied by Tramspread is Hexa-Cover slurry pit cover systems. These consist of plastic

hexagon plates which are spread on top of the slurry lagoon. Floating on top they disperse evenly joining at the edges to form a flexible plastic cover. “With legislation demanding that slurry stores are covered these are a simple but effective solution,” suggested Terry.

Cost-effective solutions Tramspread manufactures its own range of diesel engine-powered pump sets fitted with new FPT, or second-hand combine harvester engines. Fitting a used engine helps keep costs down and coming from combines they have usually worked very few hours and tend to be in excellent condition, explained Terry. continued over...

“Running at constant speeds for pumping applications they consume little fuel.” Tramspread’s most popular products currently are its front linkage-mounted hose reels. These are available with 600 or 1,000m hose capacity. Single hydraulic motor drive is standard for 600m versions and 1,000m reels have dual motor drive to handle the additional hose weight during reeling in. The tractor front linkage makes it easy to pick up or drop off full and empty hose reels. Customers can also buy new or second-hand hose from the company. A hose hire service is offered and popular with potato growers for irrigation and hose returned after hire is often available to purchase at less cost than new.

Nationwide back-up Although Tramspread sells and services products direct to customers in the east of England, further afield it relies on a network of approximately 30 dealers. “The products are very reliable but when parts or servicing is needed there is excellent back-up throughout the UK,” said Terry. “Almost all areas are covered but growing demand south of the Thames means

we are keen to recruit a specialist dealer for that area.” As well as manufacturing its own products, Tramspread also represents premium brands including Bauer, Joskin, Vogelsang, Albers Alligator, Reck, Stallkamp, Hilcoflex and AgriTank. Tramspread Slurry Storage Ltd was set up in 2006 to specialise in slurry and digestate storage products and solutions and is run by John Tydeman. “We are getting busier and I believe our success is due to us being known as slurry specialists,” explained Terry. “We are happy to create bespoke products to meet particular needs and whenever we introduce anything new, it is thoroughly tested within our contracting fleet first so we know it is practical and reliable. Legislation is tightening but handled properly slurry is an asset rather than a problem and we can help farmers make it easier to store, move and apply.”

Front-mounted hose reels are another success story for Tramspread. With 600 or 1,000m capacity they are equipped with single or dual hydraulic motors to retract the hose.

approximately 15 years ago applying mainly cattle and pig slurry but now much of the workload is applying digestate from AD plants. Four Tramspread Contractors Trailers are operated within the fleet. “Actually, almost all our slurry handling and application equipment is from Tramspread,” explained partner Wayne Middleton. “When we took on the business from my uncle he suggested that we spoke with Tramspread before buying anything and almost everything we operate was bought over the phone without us needing to see it first. The first time we ever met Terry Baker was when he visited after

we purchased our first Contractors Trailer, to show us how it all worked. It remains very reliable after 15 years’ work which is why we invested in a further three units. They are great.” The company also operates three 24m Tramspread dribble bars which are ‘fantastic’ according to Wayne. “The service is brilliant too and if we need parts they come the next day and when we need a visit someone is with us quickly. “What also impresses us is that the company is always open to ideas and if we suggest improvements these are considered and often incorporated on future versions.” ■

Muck & Slurry

Applying precision to enhance slurry spreading accuracy

Using precision farming technology to apply slurry with a high degree of accuracy has enabled Wiltshire based agricultural contractor, Will Coward, to develop a unique service which helps grassland farmers maximise the value of their farm’s by-products. Coward Contracting was founded in 2013 when Will Coward purchased a bale wrapper to service the various dairy and beef enterprises surrounding his family’s farm at Mere in Wiltshire. The business subsequently expanded to include seed drilling and crop spraying, but Will always wanted to develop a niche service which would add value to his enterprise and provide better longterm security. Following a series of conversations with local dairy farmers who had expressed a need to improve the accuracy of slurry applications on their grazing paddocks and silage leys – not only to meet mounting environmental regulations, but also to make better use of the slurry’s nutrients – Will began to research what kind of investment he’d need to make to be able to offer a precision spreading service. “I visited a number of farmers and contractors throughout the UK to see how they were applying slurry,” Will describes, “before settling on a system which I believe offers the most cost-effective and efficient service to our clients.”

Umbilical system Will subsequently invested in an umbilical system with a 6m Joskin trailing shoe grass injector. He also equipped his main tractor – a Massey Ferguson 7626 – with a Topcon X35 console and AGI-4 receiver and steering controller which uses a SIM-card based RTK signal to position the tractor and spreading equipment

to an accuracy of less than 10mm. A Krohne electro-magnetic flowmeter, which feeds its data back to a sprayer ECU (which in turn sends a signal to the X35 console) has also been installed to enable the spreader operator to monitor slurry flow and to record precisely how much slurry has been spread and where. “I wanted a system which would allow me to monitor flow rates accurately and record exactly how much slurry we’d pumped onto what area of land in order to help customers meet the tightening slurry spreading regulations and to help them use their slurry more efficiently and responsibly,” Will explains. “My aim was to have the necessary kit in place in autumn 2018 so that I could learn the trade during the latter half of the year and be ready to hit the ground running in spring 2019. I spent that first winter using the trailing shoe to inject slurry onto grassland for a handful of local dairy farmers and initially set myself the goal of spreading 50,000m3 in the first full year. Within a matter of weeks, I was picking up new customers simply through wordof-mouth, and exceeded my initial target thanks to an arrangement with a local cheese manufacturer to spread digestate from its biogas plant.”

Trailing shoe Using the 6m trailing shoe to spread the digestate at a target rate of 30m3/ ha meant the spreading tractor needed to travel too quickly, so Will upgraded to a wider system with the purchase of a 24m Vogelsang dribble bar. “I also managed to locate a second-hand 2m3 front tank which acts as a buffer to let us make headland turns without stopping the transfer pump and without over-

applying.” Will’s slurry handling kit also includes a twin splash plate spreader which, by his own admission, rarely gets used as it doesn’t offer the level of precision that his customers want. “Using the Topcon kit to guide the dribble bar prevents any overlapping and enables us to monitor, control and record exactly how much material we’re spreading and across what area,” Will continues. “That means we can accurately charge our clients based on the exact volume of slurry applied and allows us to feed accurate application data back to our customers so that they can maintain precise slurry management records and provide legitimate and fully traceable spreading data for environmental auditing purposes. That in turn means we can to charge a higher price per unit of work.”

To maximise the value of the guidance kit, Will is also using the Topcon X35 console to auto-steer when drilling and spreading fertiliser. “We were already using a Topcon screen on our spraying tractor, so it made sense to ask LH Agro to put a compatible system on our main tractor as well,” he explains. “We can potentially share data between each machine, which means if an existing customer asks us to quote for spreading slurry on their land, we’ll already have their field data in our system and can provide an accurate quote instead of having to guess how much work will be involved. It all makes managing our time easier and enables us to provide a much more professional service.” ■

SIM-card based RTK The accuracy of the RTK signal is key to the entire set-up as Chris Limb of LH Agro explains: “Due to the slow forward speed at which the dribble bar operates (typically less than 2kph a standard GPS signal wouldn’t be accurate enough and would result in steering errors. Instead, we installed a SIM-card based RTK system which uses a cellular signal to provide an accurate and repeatable position to the auto-guidance system. That ensures slurry can be applied with zero overlap which is particularly important when spreading digestate as it is so concentrated that it can scorch grass if applied too liberally.”

The flowmeter (mounted on the dribblebar’s frame) transmits data to the Topcon X35 console where the rate of application can be monitored and recorded in real time.

Muck & Slurry Slurry specialist offers bespoke tanks

Conor Engineering’s slurry tanks can be manufactured to customer requirements.

Manufacturer of slurry and muck handling equipment Conor Engineering produces slurry tanks ranging in size from 1,100-5,500 gallons. The company specialises in making bespoke tanks and with more than 200 optional extras, 32 different models to choose from and 44 different wheel options – anything the customer requires can be made. The tanks are available in single, tandem and tri axle with a large range of wheel options. The Conor recessed tandem axle tank has a much lower centre of gravity than the majority of its competitors. It is built on a tandem suspension with parabolic springs

and is stable and therefore safer at high speed and on hilly ground, says Conor. It launched a trailing shoe 9 years ago and with over 500 units sold the company credits its robust and simple construction as key to its success. Conor also manufactures rear discharge muck spreaders and the Conor muck spreader is an extremely durable and heavy-duty product designed with the contractor in mind. It is well kitted out with a wide angle PTO and torque clutch included as standard. Also as standard it is fitted with 15mm hardox tips and the base of the beater is made from 15mm plate. ■

Keep slurry flowing A product which enables farmers to reduce the costs of mixing slurry has become an essential part of slurry management for some. According to Biocell Agri director Alec Ross its Slurrycell product has been selling through word of mouth. “Farmers are seeing the benefits year after year; fewer blockages, less smell, a reduction in ammonia combined with an increase in nitrogen availability. “Mixing times have been drastically reduced so the savings in fuel costs have been significant. The bugs breaking down fibre also means that there’s less of a matting effect when the slurry is applied.” In October 2014 Mark Berry started to fill his new lagoon on his Skipton farm, with slurry. By the end of December there was a thick crust developing, so he mixed it up for about two days, but by January 2015 there was a thick crust again. At the end of January he added Slurrycell and mixed again. Around three weeks later there was no thickness or crust, even in the corners. In February he began

spreading in the grass fields in preparation for silage making. Through the spring and summer the slurry did not change in consistency and every load was evenly spread across the fields. In September Mark then added some top-up Slurrycell ready for the coming winter. In the new year he mixed it for only 2-3 hours. “The cost of mixing for days on end is just no longer there, and the bonus is that my crops are growing more evenly too,” said Mark. ■

It is also a stockist of Gollmer and Hummel pipe and Metal 360 coupling and repair sets. ■

Wox Agri offers a range of equipment for practical and efficient solutions to slurry management.

Challenging times ahead to meet environmental targets The expectations on the agricultural industry are varied and challenging, says Agri Environmental Group. Not only do we need to produce food under ever changing conditions but we must fulfil our responsibilities in protecting the environment, points out the company. The Clean Air Strategy and the requirement for us to play our part in reducing ammonia emissions will impact on us all.

With the intention to extend environmental permitting to the dairy and intensive beef sectors the industry needs to start planning now on how these new challenges will be met. Storage and spreading of slurry and manure plus the application of inorganic fertilisers are responsible for 88 per cent of ammonia emissions in the UK. We must not think that it is only farmers who are in the

TITAN CAPACITY UP TO 20M3

firing line; transport, homes and industry are all coming under the same pressure to play their part. With all the challenges of the post Brexit era almost upon us we must embrace the attitude of ‘public money for public good’ and not leave everything until the last possible moment, points out Agri Environmental Group. Those involved with FARG (Farming Ammonia Reduction

Grant Scheme) will remember that many farmers lost out by leaving everything to the last minute, says Agri Environmental Group. Companies specialising in covering slurry stores and lagoons could not meet demand within the deadline. All farmers need to be getting on with the job of covering their slurry – leaving it to the last minute will most likely end up with them losing out, believes the business. ■

Muck & Slurry

New sales and service team for specialist slurry application systems in the UK and Ireland Sales and service support for specialist slurry application systems for Claas Xerion tractors are now being handled by the Bauer team in the UK and Ireland. Bauer Group acquired German manufacturer SGT in 2015 to expand its portfolio of waste handling and field application solutions. SGT (Silage & Gulle-Technik) is best known for its slurry tanker loading system and large capacity mounted and semimounted tanks for the Claas Xerion, which converts the tractor into a selfpropelled slurry spreader. The products are complementary to the Bauer range of highspecification trailed slurry tankers, pumps, stirrers and separators, and both dealers and end users will benefit from Bauer’s direct support says sales manager Adrian Tindall. Soon after acquiring SGT, Bauer used poly-tank production – a handlaid polyester laminate manufacturing process – to produce a new mounted tank for the forward control Xerion S-Trac. Bauer has a long-established technique for producing tractor-

trailed tankers in capacities up to 26,000 litres using this process, which results in a strong but light weight structure, finished with a high-quality, smooth gelcoat that is immune to corrosion and can be cleaned to virtually as-new condition after spreading slurry and digestate. For the Xerion S-Trac, the 16m3 Bauer mounted poly tank has 2m3 more capacity than its steel predecessor but weighs 1,800kg less, making the forward control Xerion even more productive in this role. In addition, a direct-mounting frame for the front-mounted pump unit, which weighs 1,850kg, saves a further 1,000kg by replacing the tractor’s three-point linkage, while having simpler pipework that gives the operator a clearer view ahead and handles faster flow rates for quicker loading. The pump unit is available with a 10in remote docking system for filling, a 10in stone-trap box and a 9,000- or 12,000-litres/min pump. The larger capacity option is offered for 24–36m slurry dribble booms.

Other Bauer products acquired with SGT include steel semi-tankers towed from a chassis-mounted coupling in a configuration that transfers more of the tanker’s weight to the tractor wheels for optimum traction and stability. There are 16,000–21,000-litre

single-axle versions for the mid-cab Xerion Trac and JCB Fastrac 4000 Series tractors, and tandem and tripleaxle models with capacities up to 30,000 litres for the Xerion Trac. A twin-axle, 30,000-litre semitanker is also available for the forward control Xerion S-Trac. ■

The Tramspread high speed contractor pump trailer can be built to a variety of specifications and is used by the company’s contracting division to apply more than 600,000m3 of slurry and digestate each year.

Reduce ammonia losses

One tractor, one-man umbilical system Tramspread has specialised in slurry contracting for more than 30 years. The team, based in Mendlesham, Suffolk, has developed its own bespoke equipment to create machines that work efficiently and can adapt to any job. The Tramspread high speed contractor pump trailer is powered by a 175hp Iveco engine coupled to a Bauer SX2000 pump which is capable of pumping up to 300m3/ hr depending on distance and hose diameter. The long drawbar enables a Tramspread applicator, such as a dribble bar, to be carried on the tractor’s rear three-point linkage while towing the trailer. With the addition of a Tramspread SIL remote control, pressure sensors and flowmeter, the entire umbilical system can be accurately operated and monitored by just one man. Up to 2,000m of drag hose

is carried on two Tramspread galvanised detachable spools located at the front of the trailer while a further 1,000m is carried on the tractors' front 3-point linkage via the powerful twin hydraulic drive Tramspread reeler, giving a total system capacity of 3,000m. Over the twin sprung high-speed axles there is a large, 900-litre fuel tank. Mounted over the fuel tank is a compressor (also remote controlled) and suction hose loading area with two large toolboxes. Fitted with Tramspread's Raven Box, the latest in mapping and recording technology, the unit can report the areas treated and the quantity of slurry utilised. Using technology and precision engineering means the Tramspread team can tackle any job and provide a market leading service, concludes the company. ■

Agri-Industry Solutions has reported a successful year with Veenhuis slurry application equipment. With a complete range of tankers and umbilical systems, together with the Rotomax reel system and injectors, the company is able to cover a wide range of slurry application systems. All equipment is available with NutriFlow real time NPK monitoring, allowing accurate spread rates of digestate and slurry. This can be linked to farm mapping systems for yield optimisation. The system together with the utilisation of the injector range means that the maximum value of the material can be realised. This is becoming an important part of the AD and

livestock model, driving value out of a product while increasing users’ confidence of the application accuracy, said the company. Shallow disc injection can cut down ammonia losses to less than 10 per cent, and with the cost of fertiliser and an increased focus on farming and its environmental emissions we see the utilisation of this type of injection a must, a spokesman explained. “Shallow disc injection into cereals up to growth stage 30 and beyond is commonplace in Europe and we are now seeing it in the UK, with improved results in nutrient uptake as application is put where the plant requires it.” ■

Agri-Industry Solutions supplies a range of Veenhuis slurry application equipment.

Quantifiable benefits to slurry mixing system The idea of stirring slurry with compressed air is not new, but some of the many benefits of this technology have only recently been measured. Work at Wageningen University in Holland has demonstrated that Aeromixing can reduce emissions of ammonia from a store cellar by as much as 50 per cent and effectively eliminates the poisonous gases caused by anaerobic activity. The reduction of ammonia is probably due to the daily burying of

urine lying on the slurry surface into the mass of the slurry store where the many organisms which can fix that nitrogen promptly do so. This results in a higher nitrogen content in the slurry when spread – saving on fertiliser bills and improving the health of the animals housed above. The anaerobic bacteria which produce explosive methane and poisonous hydrogen sulphide are killed by exposure to oxygen at the slurry surface as the bubbles regularly lift material from the bottom of the store to the top. Deadly

pockets of H2S do not form. Aeromixing produces an easily pumpable slurry of neutral pH which is readily absorbed on spreading, rapidly greens up the grass, reduces worm kill and enables cows to be returned to pasture sooner. The Ameram patented pneumatic air distribution system has been in use for 20 years and the first examples are still in use. Electronics are kept to a minimum and all electricity is kept within the compressor housing and the operator’s panel. ■

Muck & Slurry New self-propelled slurry injector is invaluable for Kent business A new Vervaet Hydro Trike XL self-propelled slurry injector has proven itself invaluable for digestate application at St Nicholas Court Farms. The Kent-based farming company took delivery of the new machine in February from UK importer J Riley Beet Harvesters. It handles all of the digestate from the farm’s two anaerobic digestion plants which produce biogas for the national grid. Energy crops comprise 98 per cent of the feedstock, including maize, rye, triticale and grass and provide a useful opportunity to diversify rotations across the 3,000ha farmed area. Additional land is also rented on a seasonal basis for energy crop production. The farm had already gained prior experience with a much smaller anaerobic digestion plant before the current 7 Megawatt installation was commissioned in 2014. “Until last year we were using a trailed 16m3 tanker, which was good but we had outgrown it,” explains farm manager Iain Moss. “In the early days we were feeding 10,000t into the plant per year, but now we get through 110,000t annually. We could see the need coming and had been planning a

replacement for a few years. “We had considered a larger tanker, but that would mean an additional high-horsepower tractor, which would be tied up for most of the year, so we looked at self-propelled machines and arranged for demonstrations where possible.” St Nicholas Court Farms opted for a 530hp Vervaet Hydro Trike XL with a 19,000-litre tank which began work in spring 2019. Each of the Hydro Trike XL’s five wheels follows a different track when in work, keeping ground pressure to an absolute minimum. To match the farm’s 36m tramlines the Hydro Trike is paired with a 12m Schuitemaker disc injector and 18m Bomech trailing shoe injector. “The Hydro Trike is a lightweight machine for its size which we felt is important,” says Iain. When choosing the machine the ability to specify the Trike with an integrated John Deere NIR manure sensing system was also a big factor. This analyses the digestate as it is spread allowing the operator to set the application rate according to nutrient value and even carry out variable rate dressings. “The NIR system is fantastic, we couldn’t go without it now,” explains

St Nicholas Court Farms’ new Vervaet Hydro Trike XL at work applying digestate to grassland through an 18m wide Bomech trailing shoe injector.

Iain. “I know exactly what the machine has spread, and I don’t ask for applications in cubic metres per hectare anymore, I tell the operator the exact amount of nitrogen that I want to apply. Before we used to take samples and send them away for analysis, but this system monitors and actually adjusts the application in real time, as it’s going up the field. The purchase was aided by an EU grant for precise manure application, and that’s exactly what we’re doing. “It places the information at your fingertips which we think is invaluable.” “The Vervaet has got huge capacity – it’s just keeping it fed that can be an issue,” he continues. “We have two nurse tanks in the field which are serviced by four tractor tankers and a lorry, plus additional HGVs which

are called-in as needed. Output per day has averaged around 750m3, and we recently had our first day of hitting over 1,000m3, although we’re confident that more is possible.” The Hydro Trike XL’s operator Lee Terry is also pleased with the machine’s abilities and well thought-out design. “It’s very simple to use,” he comments. “Maintenance is easy, especially daily checks, with everything easy to get to.” ■

Vogelsang has revealed its new BlackBird trailing shoe linkage with flow-optimised liquid manure discharge. “When it came to developing this new technology, we took into account the findings from our flow simulations as well as the flow rates of the liquid manure and tested a number of different shapes. The result is an ideal combination of a flow-optimised discharge that deposits the liquid manure even more precisely and a new skid geometry that separates the crops even better,” explains Vogelsang’s head of sales for Germany, Henning Ahlers. The new, long, beak-like shape helps to ensure a controlled and even flow of liquid manure

through every discharge, thus preventing the crops from getting contaminated during manure spreading. By actively applying pressure, the BlackBird’s pointed skid is better able to penetrate the soil, ploughing a small furrow for directly depositing the liquid manure under the crops, says Vogelsang.

Precision distributor The BlackBird incorporates the next generation of Vogelsang’s precision distributor ExaCut ECQ. The distributor is located in the centre of the boom – the perfect position for ensuring that the liquid manure is distributed precisely and evenly. Large diameters and

flow distribution plates keep the flow under control and ensure a high distribution accuracy of the liquid manure. In order to make maintenance of the ExaCut ECQ quicker and easier, Vogelsang has also altered its maintenance concept, adding a large maintenance port to allow direct access to all the system’s internal components. As such, service work can now be carried out without dismantling the precision distributor or dismounting the cover and the outlet hoses and feed lines connected to it. The QuickService concept means that maintenance tasks on the ExaCut ECQ can be completed in just a few minutes. The power requirements have also been reduced by up to 50 per cent. This is due to the new rotor design and lower speeds. There is less strain on the cutting blades because of the reductions in speed and the internal pressure of the distributor, which extends the service life of the unit by up to 50 per cent. For longer service life Vogelsang has also modified the hose layout to prevent the unit from creating a V-shaped imprint at the start of its furrows. The hoses themselves are black and are installed for the first time in the new trailing shoe linkage.

The new leaf springs and their vibration cancellation technology ensure the unit’s stability, protecting the entire structure from excessive loads and reducing vibrations during transport on the road. Hydraulic cylinders with end-position damping keep the strain in the frame to a minimum during folding processes. As is standard procedure at Vogelsang, the BlackBird’s supporting structures are FEM-calculated. This ensures that the supporting structures can withstand the daily strains they are subjected to. The trailing shoe linkage is available in working widths of 12 and 15m and can be folded up to a transport width of 2.99m. Folding the linkage upwards activates the DropStop principle, which prevents the headland, streets and agricultural roads from getting contaminated. ■

The ExaCut ECQ is located in the centre of the boom.

Ease of operation and maximum manoeuvrability Ploeger has recently introduced a new model slurry injector, the AT5105 LNMS.

The AT range of three and five-wheel muck and slurry applicators from Ploeger have been designed with maximum manoeuvrability and operational efficiency in mind. Available as the Ploeger AT4103 and AT5105, the machines are powered by Scania five or six cylinder engines respectively. Mechanical drive to the rear axle is through the

reliable ZF ECCOM 5.0 continuously variable transmission (CVT). The front wheel is hydraulically driven, with variable output. Both the AT4103 and the AT5105 are fitted with Michelin 1050/50R32 tyres as standard. Chassis construction includes formed profiled steel sections to minimise welded joints that historically have weakened a chassis on self-

propelled agricultural machines. The AT range can be equipped with dry nutrient application bodies from Tebbe or Ploeger’s robust polyester tank for liquid nutrient application. Wet ground conditions often hamper dry and liquid fertiliser application using tractors and towed applicators, but the three-wheel trike design of Ploeger’s AT4103 with one

wheel in one track, offers contractors the ability to run during wetter periods. Variants fitted with Bredal and New Leader dry liquid or stainless steel liquid fertiliser applicator body options have proved to be invaluable in Europe’s wetter regions. The three-wheel trike has also been equipped with an umbilical connection and smaller capacity reservoir tank combination for application of liquid nutrients on wetter land where lower ground pressure is desirable. Ploeger’s UK subsidiary PMC Harvesters' area sales manager, Steven Skipper, said: “Feedback from current Ploeger users has highlighted the extreme driver comfort and ease of operational controls as well as exceptional visibility from the Claas Vista 2 cabin. Reducing driver fatigue and maintenance downtime were key factors when we designed the AT range. We will continue demonstrations in the UK and Europe ■ this summer and autumn.”

Solutions to meet impending slurry storage legislation If proposals in Defra’s Clean Air Strategy are adopted, covering slurry will be a requirement in England from 2027. This will cause concern for some farmers who will need to seek new slurry storage. However, a flexible, scalable solution is already available in the UK that will keep slurry not just covered but entirely contained. Dutch company Albers Alligator has been manufacturing bag tanks for more than 35 years. These tanks represent a cost-effective and flexible solution to contain slurry in small and large volumes. Bag tanks range in size from 200–7,000m3 and can be located on any soil type as only a shallow foundation is needed. The tanks have integral hydraulic or electric stirrers, fill/ empty pipes and are self-venting so relatively little management or farmer involvement is needed. John Tydeman from Tramspread, which sells and installs Albers Alligator tanks in the UK, comments: “These tanks are proving ever more popular. They are lower cost and easier to assemble than comparable slurry solutions on the market and often don’t require any planning permission.

We expect to see interest rise now that Defra has outlined its plans. These bags can help a great many farmers adhere to the new legislation.” Bag tanks are low to the ground and have minimal impact on the surrounding landscape. Many farmers have installed bag tanks without requiring planning permission. However, those looking to install a bag tank are advised to seek guidance from their local authority. Albers Alligator also produces a portable tank called Winbag. These smaller bag tanks range from 100–350m3 and are typically used as overflow storage but can be used as a temporary and portable solution requiring only a level, smooth site. A reeling device called Winsystem rolls the whole bag on to a trailer and will unreel it in another location. The ability to take these bags anywhere on the farm, unreel and fill offers a solution to farmers with difficult to reach fields. The bags are watertight so can be remotely situated, tanker filled or pumped to and emptied when the slurry is needed. Defra’s Clean Air Strategy also dictates that splash plates will be

banned from 2025 and farmers will be expected to use low emission spreading equipment, such as trailing shoe, dribble bar or injection. Using umbilical systems also removes the need for multiple trips to fill up a tanker. Slurry can be pumped from the main tank to a Winbag in a satellite location. Once the area surrounding the Winbag has been treated it can be reeled in and moved to another location to repeat the process. Adopting and adhering to new

legislation is often difficult and costly for farmers, says Tramspread however there could be grant funding under the capital element of the Mid Tier Stewardship scheme to help with the cost. A typical 100 dairy cow unit producing 2.25m3 per cow, per month would require a bag tank size of 1,500m3 to keep 6 months' slurry. A tank of this size costs £56,500 which includes installation and is expected to last at least 20 years. A 100m3 Winbag is £23,000 including the reeler. ■ 65130

Slurry acidification reduces emissions and adds value to manures The UK’s Clean Air Strategy will tighten legislation on airborne pollutants and many intensive livestock businesses will have to find more innovative ways to control greenhouse gas and particulate emissions to comply with forthcoming regulations. Ammonia and odour control are key issues for pig businesses and although producers have embraced best available technologies (BATs), to reduce the potential pollution risk from waste materials, effluents and gases, science is now delivering technology that can alter the biology of pig slurry, stop odour and improve its fertiliser value. Ammonia is produced when urine mixes with faeces, but adding acid to slurry, to take pH levels down to below 6, impedes the production of this offensive compound. And

if you stop this happening, then you can cut down emissions,” says independent environmental specialist, Nigel Penlington. The mild acidification of slurry, combined with high-speed air extraction, is one of the most effective methods of cutting air pollution from pig buildings. Part slatted systems, that use high velocity exhaust fans, also generate fewer emissions, but other techniques will probably be necessary to future proof pig businesses and comply with

Under construction. This base is the beginning of a new, part slatted pig finishing house with slurry cooling. The network of lines across the concrete is the heat exchange element, which will draw warmth out of the slurry and cool it. This line is continuous throughout and set in place on the base of what will be the slurry pits.

proposed clear air regulations. “Acidifying slurry has many advantages and it’s a simple process that can be carried out in the store, in the field as slurry’s being spread or directly in pits under the slats. The most effective application is when slurry is acidified in the pig housing, while the animals are in situ, as this stops the ammonia compounds forming in the first place,” says Mr Penlington.

Installation Lincolnshire producer Sam Godfrey is installing a JH Agro slurry acidification system at Elsham Linc Ltd, a new-build pig finishing project that’s part of his family’s, mixed farm business. Supported by a Countryside Productivity Grant scheme (40 per cent EU Agri fund for rural development), phase 1 was completed in February 2019. The entire development will be finished by the end of 2020. The acidification system used here is automated, continuous and maintains pH levels at around 5.5. All slurry produced on the farm is passed through a treatment well before it’s pumped to store, with a small quantity of treated material sent back to the pig sheds every few days to maintain acidity levels in the under-slat catch pits (see Diagram 1). Initial observations at ElshamLinc show an improvement to the atmosphere inside buildings with less coughing seen in the pigs. Other expected benefits are better-quality working environment for staff,

reduced repair bills as the slurry and atmospheric conditions are less corrosive, plus a reduction in flies. Other farms using mild acidification report similar benefits and notable improvements to pigs’ respiratory health. “We have to consider the effects any prospective legislation might have on our business. Slurry acidification will help us reduce emissions, optimise performance in our pig buildings and increase the nutrient value of our manure which fertilises our arable land,” said Mr Godfrey. Elsham-Lincs' acidification system has required considerable investment and running costs have yet to analysed, but Mr Godfrey says the technology has improved the environmental credentials of his business and the long-term prospects of his pig enterprise.

Chilled energy Another novel method for improving air quality and odour control is slurry cooling. The process offers substantial energy savings, but can also reduce greenhouse gas emissions and improve a pig unit’s green credentials. Similar to heat source pump technology, the Danish-developed Klimadan system can recover warmth from slurry pits and stores, and transfer it to high-input areas of the farm, such as farrowing rooms and weaner accommodation. “A network of continuous recovery pipes, set into the base of

slurry tanks extracts heat from the manure, transfers it to a pump, and then directs it elsewhere. It’s simple physics and the Klimadan system has proved very adaptable and highly efficient,” says housing/environment consultant with AM Warkup, Nick MacIvor. The energy generated from cooling the slurry can heat water to 60ºC. The cooling effect on the slurry has been shown to cut ammonia emissions by 30 per cent and significantly lower CO2 emissions, which together reduces odour/smell

– by at least 20 per cent. This cooling process also ‘fixes’ more nitrates into the manure, which improves fertiliser value (N/kg). Heat source pump systems are one of the most reliable and efficient forms of heating, generating 4Kw of output for every 1kW input – giving a net gain of 3kW. They have a low carbon footprint and are one of the most cost-effective renewable sources of energy available, but UK farmers have been slow to grasp this technology. Things might change now that air

cooling system with all new builds. It is also developing retro-fit options for existing accommodation. The hardware, eg the pipelines, pumps and heat exchange equipment, qualifies for renewable heat incentives which could be used to offset installation costs. ■

ASF signals profit potential, but provenance will secure long-term prospects Lower feed prices going forward, combined with sustained global pigmeat prices, will bring a much-needed investment to Europe’s pressured pig sector.

for the same period. These trends mirror escalating pork prices and are set to continue well into 2020.

Pork deficit

If predictions are correct, then the next five years could prove very profitable for the UK pig sector, writes independent pig sector journalist Jane Jordan. The African Swine Fever (ASF) epidemic currently sweeping through China and the Far East is creating a massive global pork shortage, and pig prices are rocketing. Opportunity knocks for established pig industries and it’s a welcome diversion from Brexit uncertainties. Market analysts are forecasting lower feed prices going forward too, which, combined with sustained global pigmeat prices, will bring a much-needed investment to Europe’s pressured pig sector.

These are extraordinary times, unprecedented, but the situation also shows how ‘globalised’ food and agribusiness has become and how an uncontrolled, incurable disease can create extreme volatility in major international supply chains. ASF has claimed at least 50 per cent of China’s pig population and Vietnam has recently confirmed that almost 3 million pigs – 10 per cent of its national herd – have been culled. The virus is now reported in Cambodia, Laos, Mongolia, and North Korea. Thailand is desperate

to keep it out of its pig industry and has ratified a government funded prevention, control and eradication plan costing US $4.7m (148.5m baht). Ministers here say an ASF epidemic of Chinese proportions could cost the country more than US $1.1 billion (35.28 billion baht). This virus is denting economies, too. China’s National Bureau of Statistics reported a Consumer Price Index of 2.7 per cent in May 2019 – the highest level for more than a year, with inflation at 18 per cent and food prices up 7.7 per cent

Dutch-based financier Rabobank estimates China’s pork deficit to be at least 16m metric tonnes by the end of the year 2019, which will have significant impact on international meat markets and consumer trends. Global market analyst GIRA director, Richard Brown (left), agrees. Revised projections for 2019 now forecast a 24 per cent drop in Chinese pork production, a shortfall that could amount to 13mt. GIRA believes the Asian pork deficit could exceed 20mt during the next two years. Speaking at key sector conference ‘Pigs Tomorrow’, Mr Brown said ASF was ‘a very big deal’ that was shaping global economics. China and Asia were rapidly sucking in imports of all meats as consumers were switching from high-priced pork to cheaper poultry products and beef. “This disease crisis is bigger than BSE, which massively influenced the British and global meat market for all species for almost 15 years,” he said. Established pig industries, such as those in the US, Europe continued over...

Greater collaboration between producers and processors will help EU pig businesses deliver robust, transparent supply chains and improve sustainability. ...from previous page

and potentially Russia and South America, will profit from the global pork shortage – there is money to be made but for how long? China is already rebuilding its pig sector; health and biosecurity are taking precedence and its domestic supply chain will be more robust and much more efficient going forward. Expansion and selfsufficiency are primary objectives and those that want to secure viable trade links here and other Pacific Rim markets will have to differentiate their offering. Dutch Meat Association (COV) director of international affairs, Frans van Dongen (right), said before the ASF crisis the potential for niche/premium pork products offering provenance, high welfare and environmental credentials, was considerable and this was unlikely to change. EU pork exports for first quarter 2019 have been strong, with trade up 5 per cent in January and February. The market’s reacted positively to Chinese demand, but this is only a peak in an export trade that’s seen steady growth for the past ten years. “EU production is rising, but not because of continental demand. The trend’s a response to global trade, and that will continue to be a key component of Europe’s pigmeat market, going forward,” he said.

Inside flux Internally, it’s a different story with markets being in flux for several years. Danish, Dutch and German pig sectors have seen enormous

rationalisation, with diminishing profits and rising costs against a back drop of increased legislation and falling meat consumption. Only Spain’s highly integrated industry has flourished and continues to drive growth. “Germany might be Europe’s largest pig producer, but it’s reached a ceiling and production’s in decline. Unlike Spain, where volume production’s increasing at around 900,000t a year with no signs of change,” said Mr van Dongen. COV statistics show an 18 per cent rise in Spanish production for 2018, up 500,000t on 2017 figures, while Germany’s Agricultural Market Information Company (AMI) reports a 3 per cent drop in finisher numbers, a 5 per cent reduction in weaners and a static breeding herd for the same period. AMI figures now rank Spain as Europe’s largest clean pig processor, with 14.2m carcases processed during the first quarter of this year, up 4.1 per cent on the previous year. Germany processed 13.9m slaughter pigs, and recorded a 4.2 per cent reduction in volume. “Growth and stagnation will continue inside Europe’s single market and its pig sector will need a thriving export trade to ‘balance trade’ and stay profitable,” said Mr van Dongen. He believes greater collaboration between producers and processors will help EU pig businesses deliver robust, transparent supply chains and improve sustainability. Upscaling production to meet short-term external/global market demands is sensible, but UK and European producers must also embrace societal demands if they want to protect export interests and grow global market share. ■

Pigs & Poultry New piglet coccidiosis and iron injection available

The new product could help prevent coccidiosis and iron deficiency in piglets while minimising stress to the animals.

 Peter Woodhall runs a 240-sow unit in Shropshire.

The first patented toltrazuril and gleptoferron combination for injection for piglets in the UK has been launched by Bayer. The new product will help prevent both coccidiosis and iron deficiency, with the added benefits of reducing handling time and stress. Baycox Iron (36 mg/ml toltrazuril plus 182 mg/ml gleptoferron) is now

available for farmers to purchase via their vet. Fraser Claughton, Bayer UK/ IE commercial manager, explains coccidiosis and iron deficiencies are two major concerns for pig producers. “Because of this, piglets generally go through intense handling to treat against both these

issues, shortly after being born. While this is important for the best start in life, it can cause stress to the animal. “However, the combination therapy offered in Baycox Iron can effectively address both of these concerns, while reducing the need for some handling at this crucial time, which can make a significant

improvement to piglet health and welfare,” he said. Peter Woodhall, who runs a 240-sow unit in West Shropshire, said coccidiosis prevention has significantly boosted the performance of his herd while a dual treatment which also tackles iron deficiency would improve farm efficiency. “Any opportunity to cut down handling will save both time and labour for us, freeing us up to focus on other work, with the added benefit of cutting down piglet stress, which we find can be very high during the early stages,” he added. ■

Balbithan Nancy. The two-year-old heifer was sired by Davally Illusion and out of Balbithan Forres. Judge Andrew Anderson from Scotland said that the beasts in the interbreed championships were “out and out very very good.” “I didn’t know what to expect when I came to judge here but throughout all classes it has been an excellent show of cattle.” His champion and reserve were both ‘exceptional animals’ he said. “The bull will make an outstanding stock bull in the future. "He was an easy winner for me. The Charolais is a lovely heifer for the future which will go on and do really well.” In the dairy interbreed line-up it was also a double Norfolk and Suffolk win for the Billings family with their Holstein second-calver Onco Art Mandy. Mandy is scored at VG89, gives 60 litres per day and calved in April. It comes after a successful show season last year when she was junior champion at all of the five shows she attended as an in-milk heifer. Mandy is from the family’s Onco herd of 280 cows based in Darford, Kent. The herd is managed by Ben Dyer and wife Holly who handled Mandy in the show-ring. Reserve dairy interbreed was five-

Elsewhere on the showground the Wakeham-Dawson and Harmer family was celebrating interbreed wins in both the pig and sheep championships. Their Welsh boar Offham Ted 5th was the judge’s favourite in the pig ring. Handled by Gussie Harmer and Alex Moss the boar has also secured wins at Heathfield and will be heading to Edenbridge and Yorkshire later this season. The homebred boar was born in September 2018. The pig herd was set up in 2011 to supply the family’s farm shop in East Sussex. Reserve interbreed pig was a Large Black January born gilt from PE Churchyard & Son. Breckles Grandeur 18th is one of six on the family’s holding near Attleborough, managed by Peter Churchyard and his son Paul. Elizabeth Sargent (nee Harmer) won the sheep championships with a Southdown shearling ram. As well as Welsh pigs and Southdown sheep the Wakeham-Dawson and Harmer family also show Sussex cattle. A Texel shearling ram from Peter Longdin won the reserve sheep title. Judge Mary Gittins said the Southdown was “a really good sheep”. “He handled really well, was solid and stood well and looked at me. A very good representative of the breed. The Texel was also big and ‘upstanding’. He is a solid meat machine,” she said. “We had a fantastic turn out of sheep. You don’t think of Norfolk as sheep county yet we had 1,200 sheep here," she added. ■

Farmers Guide 25 Years Ago The August 1994 Farmers Guide carried reports on The Royal Show and some of East Anglia’s county agricultural shows. Ernest Cozens wrote that attendance had dropped at the Royal Show and it was noticeable, with Case IH the only major tractor manufacturer exhibiting, that large areas of the showground no longer occupied by stand holders were utilised as hospitality areas. Awards at the Royal included a gold medal for the Stanhay Webb Singulaire pneumatic precision seed drill. Harry Ferguson stole the limelight at the Royal Norfolk Show thanks to Duncan Russell who had arranged a “magnificent display of Fergie tractors, cars and even an aeroplane”. The Health & Safety Executive chose the Royal Norfolk to launch its new publication; ‘Staying Healthy’. It included items on the risks of using chemicals, working with animals and machinery, exposure to vibration and noise, together with financial and social stresses connected with work. The Lincolnshire County Show organisers reported a buoyant atmosphere with increased livestock entries and a wide selection of machinery which probably rivalled the Royal Show. Tony Clark reported on the 1994 Sprays &

Sprayers event in Cambridgeshire. The attendance, boosted by a large number of foreign visitors, was almost up to the previous year. The Whittlesford event included demonstration and trial plots together with sprayers from Gem, Hardi, MitchellRowlands, Rau Ferrag, Team Sprayers and others. On the subject of set-aside, he noted that the Minister of Agriculture Gillian Shephard had said that set-aside was here to stay. She added that farmers would have to live with the fact that one sixth of their arable land will be set-aside each year and £1.3m had been provided for research into alternative crops. John Hodge discovered there was money to be made farming ostriches. According to the owners of an ostrich farm near Blackpool, a trio of breeding ostriches and a good fence, which cost about £20,000, produced meat tasting like fillet steak, the hide made high grade leather and there was still a demand for feather dusters. A special feature on front-mounted equipment included low profile front linkages and PTO shafts from BOM, a range of front mounted packer rollers from Lynx, Farm Force and Overum, the Pichon seedbed preparator from France and Ritchie steerable rubber tyred press wheels. In Farm Machinery News it was noted that with sales of 8,642 tractors over 40hp in the first half of the year, new registrations showed an increase of 9.7 per cent with Wales showing the largest increase of 21.7 per cent over the previous year. AMAC introduced a new two-row trailed potato harvester with hydraulic levelling and steering and optional picking-off table with space for four workers. Fendt introduced a new hydro-pneumatic front suspension system. ■

The David Brown 50D David Brown established a small factory at Huddersfield in 1860 to manufacture gear wheels. The business was a success and in 1936 the founder’s grandson, also David Brown, joined Harry Ferguson to build Ferguson Brown Type A tractors. The relationship ended in 1939 and the David Brown VAK I (Vehicle Agricultural Kerosene) and VAG 1 (Vehicle Agricultural Gasoline) tractors were launched at that year’s Royal Show. The VAK1A and VAK1C which appeared in 1945 were the first David Brown tractors to be designated Cropmasters. The VAK1C with an optional diesel engine appeared in 1947. VAK tractors had a cushioned twin bench seat but the DB25 and DB30 series had a single pan seat when they appeared in 1953. There was a choice of a petrol, kerosene or diesel engine for both models, the DB 30 diesel engine had a decompressor on all cylinders for cold starting. The David Brown 50D was launched in 1953 and the David Brown 2D tool carrier was

Only 1,260 David Brown 50D tractors were made during a 7-year production run.

added in 1955. The 2D, with a compressed air implement lift system had a twin cylinder, four-stroke diesel engine mounted over the rear axle. The David Brown 50D and 50TD crawler had the same 6-cylinder 50hp diesel engine. The 50D with six forward and two reverse gears had a four-speed PTO and an optional side mounted belt pulley and a bench seat but it didn’t have a hydraulic system. The two wheel drive 50D, with a top speed of 12mph, manual steering and drum brakes, was basically

a towing tractor. Some agricultural contractors used a 50D to drive a threshing machine but the tractor was not a great success and only 1,260 were made, with many of them sold abroad, when production ended in 1960. ■ August 2019 www.farmersguide.co.uk
