Out & About David Williams previewed John Deere’s latest 8RX series tractors. He is pictured second from left, with international press and manufacturer reps at the Iowa plant.

From Farmers Guide editor Rachel Hicks It’s been a fairly uneventful month for me in terms of getting out and about – in fact, I’ve barely left my desk, although given the weather that’s not necessarily a bad thing. Farmers Guide machinery editor David Williams, however, has had a hectic diary in comparison. In addition to checking out the versatile Mercedes-Benz Unimog during a series of demo days (full write-up on page 41), David also headed over to Iowa, USA where he was among the first agri press to test-drive the muchanticipated John Deere 8RX tracked tractor. We released a preview on the FG website and social media and, judging by the phenomenal response, this is going to be one sought-after piece of kit. You’ll find all the details in his extensive feature, starting on page 29. Closer to home, David also visited Norfolkbased farming business NE Salmon where a Class Axion TT tractor has recently been put to work – you can read more about this on page 50. He rounded off the month by trying out a 2019 compact loader from Manitou (page 59), and attending a press launch for the new Opico inter-row cultivator (page 65). Despite being office-bound myself, there’s been plenty in the news to keep me and the rest of the FG team talking. For example, Tesco ran a controversial TV advert featuring vegan sausages,

which caused a furious Twitter storm. Leaving vegans delighted and farmers outraged, it even hit the sofas at This Morning where NFU member and dairy farmer Abi Reader and Made In Chelsea star Lucy Watson clashed metaphorical swords. NFU president Minette Batters suggested Tesco was ‘demonising meat’ and that the advert had caused ‘significant distress for farmers’. The on-going debate was so emotive that even a seven-year-old got involved, writing a letter to Tesco in support of British farmers, saying: ‘My daddy works very hard and cares a lot about his cows’ – a letter which has been seen by over 1.4 million people and counting.

It was quite amazing how one TV advert could generate such a passionate response in the farming community.

It really got us thinking and I decided to ask a real farmer for their take on the whole furore. You’ll find his surprising response in our online

article ‘Vegan Diets – Threat or Opportunity’ in the Business section over at farmersguide.co.uk.

You may also discover a few small changes as you’re reading through this issue, aimed at making the magazine easier to navigate, which is one of the main reasons I’ve been so busy here at Farmers Guide HQ. I was looking forward to my first expedition out to the East of England Farming Conference on 14th November, but sadly it was cancelled due to the weather and political unrest. Such a shame! And finally... A couple were Christmas shopping. The shopping centre was packed and, as the wife walked round, she realised that her husband was nowhere to be seen. They had a lot to do, and she became so worried that she called him to ask where he was. In a quiet voice he said: “Do you remember the jewellers we went into a few years ago, where you fell in love with that diamond ring we couldn’t afford, and I told you that I’d get it for you one day?“ His wife started to cry and said, “Yes, I do remember that shop.” He replied: “Well, I’m in the pub next door.” Thank you to Pete Fliswright for this great joke!

Comment

Encouraging young people into agricultural careers Farmers Guide editor Rachel Hicks discusses how the industry is igniting the imagination of the younger generation. At a time when politics and climate change are shaking the agricultural world, it’s encouraging to see so many initiatives working to get the younger generation in particular excited about farming and the wider agri industry. Tom Martin, a mixed sheep and arable farmer from Peterborough, set up FaceTime a Farmer as a nationwide project back in 2018 as a way to make learning about farming easy, accessible and fun and the initiative has gathered in momentum, so far resulting in over 300 teacher and farmer pairings across the UK. The main premise of FaceTime a Farmer is to ‘inspire, engage and educate young people, about not only the journey from farm to fork, but also the ever-changing, diverse agricultural industry.’ Tom teamed up with LEAF (Linking Environment and Farming) to help take the scheme nationwide. Speaking as one of its sponsors, Strutt & Parker head of rural consultancy, James Farrell, said: “With everything going on around the Agriculture Bill, and the change in the way farming will be funded in future, there has never been a more vital time to inform about all the good work that farmers do.” Seeing the agri world from within the farm gate will no doubt lead to a new generation of farmers. The NFU has also been busy in schools of late, thanks to a £25,000 grant from the governmentbacked ‘opportunity area’ programme. Education consultant Learn by Design helped the NFU deliver the Back British Farming project to five of Derby’s inner-city primary schools, with 300 students coming together in October for a launch event. Workshops investigated alternative energy production on farms and a year in the life of an arable farm, where students planted wheat seeds, flew drones and ground their own grain. NFU president Minette Batters said: “By funding these activities we can open young eyes to opportunities that otherwise might have passed them by. If we spark children’s interest now and build their knowledge of food, farming and the countryside, we can

open up endless possibilities for their future.” Of course, a career in the agri industry doesn’t just mean farming. The sector needs manufacturers, distributors, researchers, sales executives, people managers, traders, advisers, buyers, technologists, product managers, technicians, marketeers and logistics experts. Increasing numbers of farmers are adopting precision farming techniques that use GPS, drones, robotics and data analysis, taking food production to the next level. This growth in technology and the speed at which it happens means huge opportunities exist for those with an aptitude for science, maths and engineering. With the recruitment, training and retention of high-quality service engineers posing a major issue for agricultural dealerships, many machinery companies offer apprenticeship schemes. For example, Claas offers career pathways for both younger people and also those seeking a career change via the Claas Academy and Claas Agricultural Apprenticeship. Claas UK chief executive officer, Trevor Tyrell, said: “Agriculture is an exciting industry that uses state-of-the-

art technology on a par with aerospace. It has embraced the internet, satellite technology and computers like no other, as we continue to develop machinery that will help farmers feed an ever growing population.” Sixteen apprentices recently graduated from the Claas apprenticeship scheme and began their careers at the end of October. John Deere’s Ag Tech, Parts Tech and Turf Tech apprenticeship programmes run in partnership with its dealer network and national training provider, ProVQ. Ag Tech won the only National Training Award ever made to an agricultural machinery apprenticeship programme. Less well-known is the company’s sponsorship of the British Guild of Agricultural Journalists John Deere Training Award, a practical course for aspiring agricultural journalists – our own Dominic Kilburn and Greg Goulding both ‘graduated’ from this unique scheme, which runs in July each year. Farmers have a huge responsibility as countryside custodians, and are vital in the fight to protect it for future generations – but we also need to recruit these future generations to join that fight.

Two of the UK’s largest greenhouses to be constructed Greencoat Capital has announced a £120m project to construct two of the UK’s largest greenhouses at farmland sites near Norwich and Bury St Edmunds, which will be warmed by residual heat from nearby water recycling centres owned by Anglian Water. The aim is to reduce the carbon footprint of food produced there by 75 per cent compared to European equivalents. Closed loop heat pumps will be used to transfer the heat from the water recycling centres to the greenhouses. Electricity for the heat pumps will be provided by a Combined Heat and Power plant (CHP), with waste heat providing further warmth. The gas-fired CHP plant’s carbon emissions will be transferred into the greenhouses, raising CO2 levels to accelerate the growth of the plants, and capturing the majority of the carbon. The construction phase will begin immediately, with completion expected in autumn 2020. The greenhouses will be capable of producing more than one in 10 of the country’s tomatoes, and will create 360 permanent new jobs, plus up to 120 seasonal roles.

New grape variety could mean quality UK red wine Viticultural scientists in Kent believe the South East could soon be producing high quality red wine thanks to a new grape variety which has been trialled at East Malling for the past three years. NIAB EMR believe the Swiss-developed Divico grape produces quality red wine and thrives despite the challenges of the UK climate. Divico flowers in early June, which is late enough to avoid frosts and allows optimal pollination, better yield and quality. It is also proving to be naturally resistant to many of the economically-important diseases affecting grape crops – a factor that is key for growing crops in the UK’s warm, humid environment, which often favours development of fungal diseases. The wine quality is outstanding as Divico’s precocity and its natural resistance to fungal diseases allows a long ripening, resulting in an optimal aromatic and phenolic quality. The variety was bred at the Swiss Centre of Excellence for Agricultural Research (Agroscope) in the late 1990s and first released for planting in 2013. The 2019 harvest will be the first one processed at the recently completed ‘research winery’ at NIAB EMR.

Major beef processor opens farm for sustainability trials health and nutrition. Managing director, Greg Pickstock (pictured), declared the official opening of Brongain Farm an exciting step for the business. “We were delighted to hold our first integrated supply chain forum event, and look forward to welcoming more farmers, customers and industry partners to Brongain Farm in the future,” he said.

Pickstock Telford opened the gates to its own Brongain Farm for the first time in October for the business’ integrated supply chain forum event, with over 85 stakeholders, from farmers through to customers, in attendance. The specialist beef unit in Llanfechain, Powys, has been

newly established as a hub to facilitate R&D and knowledge transfer that will support sustainability within the beef supply chain. Alongside a tour of the new facilities, delegates heard from industry specialists at the 1,000-head semi-extensive unit. Carbon emissions and Brexit were among the hot topics discussed, as well as genetics,

New schemes aimed at self-propelled sprayers

Wheat farmer is a Wheat Art winner

Horsch has announced three new schemes to support customers when purchasing a Leeb self-propelled sprayer. PremiumCare provides fixed-price dealer servicing on the latest Leeb 6.300 PT and 8.300 PT sprayer. This is complemented by PremiumWarranty that covers all service parts for up to five years. PremiumUsed is a manufacturer-defined audit with more than 200 checkpoints that ensures used Leeb PT270 and PT280 self-propelled sprayers still meet their original rigorous performance and reliability benchmarks. The checklist has been developed by Horsch’s sprayer engineers to cover all critical and wearing elements, so customers can be confident that the machine has been returned to original factory standards.

A giant tractor made from 62 straw bales has won this year’s Weetabix ‘Wheat Art’ competition. The panel of judges, which included local MPs Philip Hollobone, Tom Pursglove and Chris Heaton-Harris, was chaired by Weetabix MD Sally Abbott. The judges felt that the 10ft tractor, created by wheat farmer Michael Sly and his team from Park Farm in Thorney, Cambridgeshire, deserved the top spot. Michael’s tractor pipped other creations which included a tower of multi-

coloured farm animals and a sausage dog, to win the chance to nominate a charity close to their heart for a £1,000 donation. His chosen charity was The Thorney Society, who run a local heritage museum that educates visitors about the importance of local food and farming.

Farmland for sale hits 10-year low The farmland market continues to be quiet, with ongoing political and economic uncertainty constraining both the amount of land coming forward and the number of transactions, according to land and property specialists Strutt & Parker. “Across Q1–Q3, the whole of 2019, supply is down more than 40 per cent against 2018 levels, and it is looking like Q4 will

also be quiet,“ says Strutt & Parker’s head of estates and farm agency Michael Fiddes. “The drop-off in supply is something we have seen during previous rounds of Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) reforms. There is a chance that more land will come to the market in 2020 when there should be more certainty about future policy, but the significant variation in prices will continue.”

British beef sector gets £230m boost from China deal The British beef industry is set to benefit from an estimated £230 million boost after China finalised the details of an export deal with the UK. Farmers and beef producers in the UK will have full access to the Chinese market for the first time in 20 years. It marks the end of a ban imposed by China following the 1996 BSE outbreak. Chinese authorities have cleared four beef sites

for export in the first instance, with further sites under review. The first exports are expected to be shipped in the next few months. International trade secretary Liz Truss said: “I’m delighted that our dedicated UK producers can now sell to one of the world’s largest economies, supporting local jobs and bringing millions of pounds to the UK economy.“

Vaderstad, Gregoire Besson, Bomford Turner and Sulky. The Lincolnshire site, provided by H G Tunnard Ltd, brought a new set of challenges. The soil type was very different to the sandy loam of day one, yet every machine performed at its best, providing perfect cultivation and seed. Area sales representative Richard Wales said: “The conditions were perfect for all the demos that took place. It was an incredible turn out.“

National Sheep Association launches post-Brexit toolkit

Steve Trostler memorial run Agricultural machinery dealership, Ben Burgess Coates, has presented a cheque for £3,100 to the East Anglian Air Ambulance following the success of its inaugural tractor run. Fifty tractors took part in the 22nd September event, which was held in memory of Steve Trostler, the late branch manager of Ben Burgess Coates, who tragically died in a car accident earlier this year. Tammy Swiderski, community fundraiser for the EAAA, said, “The tractor rally was a huge success and has raised almost enough to fund one mission, for which we are incredibly grateful.” Paul and his colleagues are already making plans for next year’s run.

Farmers Guide machinery editor receives Omnia award

The National Sheep Association (NSA) has launched a ‘Business Readiness Toolkit’ to help UK sheep farmers ensure they’re prepared for changes in the coming months and help improve their businesses for the future. The toolkit is packed with guidance and advice as well as case studies highlighting farms where particular practices have worked well. The kit covers seven topics, which NSA says will be crucial for farmers to consider.

Farmers Guide machinery editor David Williams has been presented with the Omnia Precision Agronomy Award (runner-up) for an article he wrote, which was published last autumn in Farmers Guide. The article discussed how investment in second-hand precision farming equipment has benefitted a Kent farming family. David is pictured with Hutchinsons precision technology manager Oliver Wood, who presented the award, which was supported by Hutchinsons, at the British Guild of Agricultural Journalists Harvest Lunch in mid-October.

£22m boost awarded to farmers More than 3,600 farmers are set to benefit from £22 million in productivity-boosting equipment from round two of the government’s Countryside Productivity Small Grants scheme. Under the scheme, farmers can apply for grants of between £3,000 and £12,000 to invest in new equipment which help businesses save time and money and improve productivity. The Rural Payments Agency has already written to the 3,677 successful applicants.

Get serious about spring crops Spring cropping continues to play a key role as part of the solution for tackling troublesome grass weeds, however persistent inclement weather this autumn, as well as difficulties in establishing oilseed rape, may result in a greater spring planted area of land in 2020 than originally planned. And while average yields and gross margins of spring crops vary considerably compared with their winter counterparts from season to season, farm data suggests that attention to detail in the spring can deliver significant results for growers. Speaking in late October, ProCam’s regional technical manager for the north, Nigel Scott (right), who advises on farms from Durham down to North Yorkshire, reckoned that winter wheat drilling was significantly behind schedule in the area and some of the planned winter barley plantings were most likely to fall by the wayside if poor weather continued. “Typically I have two types of growers in the region; the early drillers in non-black-grass areas where the first wheats are all in and looking very good. And then there

are growers who have land which has grass weed issues – notably rye grass and black-grass – and where cultural control is needed. “As we stand today, those growers have about half their wheat in but I know further south into East Yorkshire, Lincolnshire and the East Midlands, there are still a lot of winter cereals to get in.” He suggested that there might be a little winter wheat that doesn’t get drilled but, in the main, growers will forego some winter barley if they have to. “The crop needs to be set up with as many ears/m2 as possible to reach its potential – so there comes a time when a spring crop looks to be a better option,” Nigel said. “I’m certainly getting calls each day with growers asking how much longer should they wait to get winter barley in and what are the spring alternatives,” he added. In addition to the challenging weather conditions this autumn, oilseed rape establishment has been the worst that Nigel can remember in 24 years of advising in the region, and this factor is also likely to increase the area that has

to be switched from winter to spring cropping. “We had wet soils at harvest and then a dry spell from the August Bank Holiday. Anything that was drilled prior to that went into moisture and got away, but with growers prioritising harvesting wheat, and the dry conditions that followed, establishment was poor and flea beetle damage was extensive. “Some OSR has already been written off and, where growers have spent money on herbicides, they are now waiting to see if crops will make it before deciding on a switch to a spring alternative,” he said.

Focus on detail Nigel pointed out that for decades growers have focused almost all of their attentions on winter cropping, apart from the occasional blip such as in 2012, and there is a tendency

to think that a spring crop is a low input crop. However, he believes it should be treated just like any other commercial crop in the rotation – with a focus on detail. And the company’s 4Cast survey of crop yields and gross margins (2000–2018) backs this up (see Table page 14). 4Cast data between 2000 and 2018 shows that, for the top 25 per cent performing growers, average on-farm yield for spring barley is 6.27t/ha – delivering a gross margin of £664.17/ha. This compares with an average gross margin of £536/ha across all winter barley growers. “There’s no doubt that with winter crops yield is more consistent each year – all crops need to build biomass and if there’s a pinch point in the season, such as a lack of continued on page 14...

As winter approaches, growers up and down the land must consider their options for spring cropping, which, in some cases, could be a larger area than originally thought. Dominic Kilburn writes.

Cereal farmers face an increasing number of complex challenges, and for those whose livelihoods depend on the land, there is a great deal of uncertainty. By listening carefully to them we can understand what they need. But words are not enough. Farmers can’t afford to just hope for the best. They all need the confidence of knowing real change is happening, turning uncertainty into profitability.

They are ready. We are ready.

moisture, then it’s the spring crops that suffer most – they have less time in the ground to be able to compensate and their yield will be affected,” he explained. “However, the spring barley gross margin figures for the top 25 per cent tell me that, despite variability of spring crop yields, attention to detail is instrumental in delivering gross margin,” said Nigel. “What you spend on the crop is also important and growers must, to the best of their ability, focus on achieving a good yield,” he stressed. “That means creating a good seedbed, understanding seed rates, nitrogen and micro-nutrition inputs, as well as tailoring PGRs and fungicides correctly. “It must be taken as seriously as you would if it were a winter crop,” he added.

According to Nigel, due to the large number of stock farms, spring barley is a natural fit for growers in the region looking to switch away from a winter crop, with reliable demand for feed and straw, while malting

and they are competitive against grass weeds, but you’ve got to think forward for what market you are growing for and see what contracts are available.” Spring beans are another low cost option, he pointed out, while suggesting that a lack of chemistry, particularly with the imminent loss of chlorothalonil, could hamper growers’ management of the crop. “Spring beans could replace some of the oilseed rape area lost with the additional positive of a reduction in slug numbers after – an important factor for the following wheat crop with the loss of Deter. “If you opt for spring beans, get them in early – gross margins will be good for 5t/ha crops,” he said. “Judging how a spring crop will perform each year is like looking through a crystal ball with their susceptibility to conditions, and while understanding the market for these crops is important, attention to detail when growing them is critical. “The main thing is, farmers need to drive their costs/t of production down to be profitable, but they also have to prioritise good yields in order to achieve this,” Nigel concluded.

Setting up heavy land for spring sowing without the plough Heavy ground for spring sowing needs to go into the winter both weatherable and weatherproof as well as compaction free and bacterially active, visitors to the start of a state-of-the-art iFarm soil management trial in Lincolnshire were told this autumn. The Agrii event in conjunction with Roy Ward Farms, put 10 different min-till cultivators working from 1–8in depth through their paces on Glebe Farm’s heaviest clay loam land at Leadenham. Their task was made all the more challenging by noticeable harvest trafficking damage sustained following a summer seeing 130mm of rain in three days on one occasion – not to mention 10mm of rain just ahead of cultivation that left the soil below 20cm, right on the edge of practical workability. The 18ha field is to be sown to spring barley with a number of different drills next year at right angles to its wheat stubble cultivation and taken to yield, allowing the farm and trials teams to make the best possible comparisons of the performance of the various equipment combinations. “Among other things, this will allow Andrew Ward to benchmark his long-standing and highly successful Simba Solo cultivator and Freeflow drill system against other establishment regimes,” explained Agrii trials manager, Steve Corbett. “In particular, to see whether shallower cultivation and less soil movement at drilling could offer significant savings in fuel cost and time while maintaining the high levels of cereal performance and black-grass control which Glebe Farm has achieved in recent years.” “We haven’t ploughed any ground here since 2002,” Andrew told the 100 plus visitors to the event. “And our zero-tolerance policy to grass weeds means we’ve just completed our fifth black-grass free harvest. Winter wheats continue to be our mainstay, with yields averaging 12.1t/ ha this harvest. Wherever we have any concerns over black-grass, the land goes into spring barley – for several years, if necessary.

“Our standard practice for the past 15 years has been to cultivate to 8–10in with our Solo as soon after combining as we can, having chopped and spread all the straw as evenly as possible. Typically, we have three quarters of our spring land ready for the winter before we start drilling OSR. Then, the only thing it sees before the drill in March is the sprayer for glyphosate. “Having built-up our soil structure and organic matter levels well over the years, as well as getting on top of black-grass, we’re now wondering if we could reduce the depth of our cultivation and degree of soil movement at drilling. Doing this could save us a lot of diesel and time while improving the resilience of our soils. But new kit is expensive. So, we want to find out exactly what – if anything – we stand to gain from any change and whether any savings and improvements would be sufficient to justify the expense.”

draught requirement – and diesel costs – by around 50 per cent, shallower working would offer substantial savings in fuel and time here. It would also do much to decrease the vulnerability of the clay soil to trafficking damage; especially in conditions as wet as the land has seen this past summer. “Digging down into the trial field shows the soil at depth is perfectly adequately structured, despite the areas of generally surface-based trafficking compression,” he revealed. “Since compaction from machinery diminishes with depth to a point

Your aim should be to give the clay its best opportunity to restructure .

With his home-built Elita system continuing to a good job cultivating at 6–10in where soil conditions require it, Andrew Ward’s ideal would be to complement it with a machine working best at just 1–3in wherever deeper soil movement isn’t necessary. “The 75cm spacing of the legs on his Solo means Andrew currently has to work deeper than he would like to cultivate evenly across the whole width of the machine,” pointed out independent soils and tillage specialist, Philip Wright at the event. “With every 2in reduction in cultivation depth typically reducing

where roots are well able to deal with it, even in ground like this with up to 57 per cent clay, deep loosening should be unnecessary in most cases; especially as the ability of the soil to resist trafficking is built-up with progressive reductions in tillage depth creating a more naturally structured profile over time. “In addition to effective stubble incorporation to overcome surface matting, which can restrict moisture penetration and shelter slugs, cultivations in this sort of ground need to maintain aerobic activity to encourage effective bacterial straw breakdown. And they

should be geared to eliminating any restriction to rooting within the top 20–30cm. Which means narrower spacing of tines – where needed – and lighter discs.”

Weather down Just like traditional ploughing, Philip Wright and Agrii regional technical adviser, David Felce, are adamant that reduced tillage cultivation in the autumn has to produce ground that is both well set-up to weather down and well able to allow good water infiltration over the winter. “This means you can produce the good seedbed with minimal soil movement at drilling which our Stow Longa work continually emphasises is the secret to the least possible grass weed emergence in the seedbed,” David observed. “Given the very much more limited herbicide options available, this is especially important in spring cereals. “Your aim should be to give the clay its best opportunity to restructure with successive cycles of wetting and drying, freezing and thawing. Set it up with the clods that aren’t too big and a surface that is nice and even, and it will do so readily, leaving you with just the right conditions for spring sowing without further cultivation once the weather warms-up sufficiently. “At the same time, though, you don’t want clods that are too small continued over…

either – particularly where there is much in the way of silt in the ground. Otherwise you run the serious risk of surface slumping in heavy rainfall, or silt panning-out lower in the profile to restrict water and root penetration. “It’s a delicate balancing act which depends on cultivating to the right depth for both the soil type and autumn conditions with the most appropriate kit set-up and operated correctly. Get it wrong at this stage and you’ll have to live with it the

whole season – and into the next, if you’re not very careful. “Equally important, of course, is to leave a nicely ridged surface through which water can readily percolate,” added David Felce. “After all, an inch of rain exerts a pressure of 100t/ acre which can cause some serious structural damage if it doesn’t drain away rapidly.” David, Philip, Andrew and Steve are looking forward to monitoring how well the different Glebe Farm trial plots overwinter, drill next March and, of course, yield next harvest.

Top 10 min-till tips for heavy land ahead of spring sowing 1

Use the combine as the first cultivator, chopping and spreading straw and chaff sufficiently evenly and well for the best incorporation, with stubble length depending on the drill to be used. 2 Cultivate as soon after harvest as conditions allow to give the maximum time for weathering and the greatest amount of grass weed germination ahead of sowing. 3 Examine the soil profile carefully in several parts of the field and set up the machinery to remove any particular structural concerns. 4 Work only as deeply as necessary to loosen the upper layers of soil, leaving it to crop rooting to achieve any deeper soil structuring needed. 5 Only work the soil when moisture conditions allow the right degree of machinery penetration on the one hand and soil shattering on the other, and never when it’s in a plastic state. 6 Ensure sufficiently even and effective incorporation of straw, chaff and air for the most effective bacterial residue breakdown in the surface horizon. 7 Avoid mixing soil layers to maintain vertical fissuring and keep deeper buried grass weed seed out of the germination zone. 8 Choose, set up and use cultivators to produce clods of the right size to weather down well without slumping – especially where there is significant silt content in the soil. 9 Leave a level but well-ridged soil surface that will permit effective surface water penetration over the winter as well as weathering down well. 10 Stay off the ground entirely until drilling – except for pre-planting glyphosate – moving as little soil as possible with the drill for the least grass weed emergence with the crop. *Source: Philip Wright and David Felce.

Spring crop trials bring a boost to black-grass battle However, at every seed rate tested – of 87, 175, 350 and 525 seeds/m2 – the average number of black-grass ears/m2 was substantially lower in the spring barley, she adds (see Table). In the case of the popular spring malting barley varieties, Laureate and Propino, drilled at a standard 350 seeds/m2, black-grass ear numbers were a massive 94 per cent lower than in the spring wheat drilled at the same seed rate. The same herbicide treatments were used across both crops. “Subsequent work on Laureate at our heavy land Innovation Centre at Barton, Cambridgeshire, also confirmed spring barley to be about a third better at reducing black-grass than spring wheat,” continues Georgina. “This was

Spring barley offers a much more competitive option than spring wheat for reducing black-grass numbers when planted at like-forlike seed rates. Moreover, carefully considering cultivation techniques prior to planting spring barley could slash black-grass seed return by more than 4,000 seeds/m2. Those are key findings to emerge from Syngenta trials as growers consider spring cropping options after the difficult autumn. According to Syngenta field technical manager, Georgina Wood (right), trials in Oxfordshire and Cambridgeshire showed that increasing seed rates of both spring barley and spring wheat gave progressive reductions in the number of black-grass ears per m2.

in a direct drilling situation. “Other work at the Barton site comparing cultivation methods showed that ploughing, rather than direct drilling, before planting spring barley further reduced black-grass ear numbers from 84 to just 1/m2, which was a reduction of 98 per cent. Based on each black-grass ear producing 50 seeds, that’s a potential for around 4,000 fewer black-grass seeds being shed per m2 and returned to the seed bank. “Clearly this was one site in one year. Cultivation methods need to be matched to individual situations and will depend on the conditions. If there’s a risk of bringing more buried black-grass seed back to the surface then ploughing may not be the best option. “If growers are forced to plant more spring cereals this season because winter cereal drilling was impossible due to weather conditions, it’s not only important to choose the most competitive species of spring cereal, but also the correct cultivation method to minimise the number of weeds germinating and to exert the most pressure on the emerged weeds,” she adds.

With the majority of black-grass germinating in autumn, Georgina says a huge advantage of spring cropping is the opportunity for stale seedbeds. While later drilling or a move to spring cropping may not have been by choice this season, better black-grass control will be a real benefit, she points out.

Another advantage of spring crops is that black-grass germinating within the crop has less time to tiller, she notes, which means fewer ears and potentially less seed return. “Although it can be challenging in some years, taking time to achieve a good seedbed will have significant benefits. Good soil conditions produce even crop emergence for more competitive and higher yielding crops, whilst also aiding weed control – because cloddy seedbeds can shelter emerging black-grass from herbicide sprays. “If you are growing spring malting barley, check what contracts are available. Propino may be most suited to export opportunities, while Laureate has full approval for both malt distilling and brewing uses for harvest 2020 on the MBC Approved List.” FG 68502

Catch and cover crop destruction evaluated

Four years of trial work with 22 different catch and cover crops has highlighted how difficult a number of species are to destroy ahead of winter and spring drilling, and provided growers with reliable guidance on the best way of managing them. The research, conducted by Bayer with Pearce Seeds at their Sturminster Newton trials site on the Somerset/Dorset border, involved spraying all the most widely used cover crop components with different rates of the most active Roundup (glyphosate) formulations in the autumn, early and mid-spring. Replicated trials with a more limited number of species in 2015/16 and 2016/17 were extended to full multi-species matrix evaluations in the past two seasons. Drilling dates from mid-August to early September and very different establishment and winter conditions over the seasons ensured the most thorough assessments of controllability. “This work has allowed us to develop traffic light guidance (see Table) for each catch and cover crop to help growers manage them as effectively as possible,” explains Roundup technical specialist, Tom Scanlon. “Regardless of how well they established or the severity of the winter, we have consistently found some species much harder to destroy than others. So, they can easily compromise crop establishment if they aren’t managed correctly; especially when autumn growing conditions are good and we get little, if any, sustained winter cold.”

Cereal components Providing spraying isn’t left until stem extension is underway in the spring, Tom doesn’t see the cereal components of cover crop mixes presenting much of a challenge.

The trials also showed phacelia, buckwheat and mustard readily succumb to colder weather. Very vigorous early winter growth means many brassica species can be a challenge to destroy ahead of lateautumn drilling. They may also prove more problematic after a hard winter has left their leaves well waxed-up. The biggest issue, however, undoubtedly lies with legumes; a number of species used in covers being difficult to control in the spring in particular, even with the most effective glyphosate treatment. “Yellow trefoil, sainfoin and winter vetch are the worst offenders here,” stresses Tom. “They put serious pressure on glyphosate at a time of the year when low temperatures restrict herbicide uptake and translocation. As well as taking much longer than other species to die back, they have shown appreciable re-growth long after treatment in many cases. “Spring vetch poses less of a problem but still isn’t easy to deal with,” he says. “And lucerne becomes progressively harder to destroy over the winter and into the spring.”

Right first time So, what approach does Tom Scanlon suggest in destroying catch and cover crops in general and mixes with harder-to-kill species in particular? Because there isn’t a second chance, he insists growers need to be right first time in their glyphosate spraying. Equally, unless they’re drilling ‘on the green’ in the autumn,

Otherwise crop establishment can be noticeably delayed and uneven. “You have to use a rate of glyphosate suitable for the hardestto-kill species in your mix,” he advises. “For easier-to-manage covers 720– 1,080g/ha of glyphosate in a modern Roundup formulation should be sufficient in the autumn, with 1,080g/ ha likely to be needed in the spring. “I’d employ rates of up to 1,440g/ ha for most brassicas other than mustard – especially in the autumn and late spring – while a full 1,800g/ ha will be necessary for most legumes other than spring vetch and autumn-treated lucerne. “These rates only apply to modern Roundups as they are proven to work much better than other non-tallow amine formulations, getting more glyphosate into plants

more rapidly and reliably at low temperatures and on the frost. “Less active formulations may require a different approach,” Tom adds.

Care and attention For the most effective penetration and coverage of tall, thick, multispecies canopies, Tom urges everyone to spray with as much care and attention as possible. “Glyphosate may be translocated, but in the most challenging lateJanuary/early-February conditions, in particular, the best coverage of all the target surfaces will pay dividends. “Go for a spray quality on the coarser side of medium with flat fan nozzles at less than 2.5-bar. Increasing water volumes from 100- to 150-litres/ha will give better coverage of larger, thicker canopies. And angling the nozzles alternately straight down and 30 degrees forward will improve penetration.” FG

Field f cus East or West – the challenges of winter crop drilling set by the wet autumn continue for both of our Field Focus agronomists. Dominic Kilburn writes. East East Midlands-based agronomist Christina Scarborough said that there had been almost non-stop rain in the region since September, causing havoc with winter cereals drilling programmes. Growers, she pointed out, were waiting to start winter cereal drilling in earnest in mid- to late September but rain put paid to any progress. “At best, five per cent of winter cereals are drilled up and only on the lighter, free-draining areas,” said Christina on the 6th November. “Typically by now 80 per cent of crops would be in the ground,” she added. She reckoned that a minimum of two to three weeks’ dry weather was required just for growers to be able to get on the land, much of which remains as stubble. “If we are lucky and get some good conditions, we can keep drilling until the end of November but clearly there will be a hit on yields,” she pointed out. However, the need for drier weather extended beyond achieving a reasonable seedbed and getting the crop in the ground, pointed out Christina, who said that being able to get on the land was equally important for successful herbicide applications. “In the past we’ve seen what can happen when autumn herbicide programmes can’t be applied sufficiently and it can be disastrous in terms of weed control,” she stressed.

One of the only upsides to the dismal autumn is that black-grass germination has been phenomenal with a lot sprayed off in a break in the weather between the end of September and mid-October. That said, since then, more had chitted and will also have to be sprayed, she noted. According to Christina, around 50 per cent of oilseed rape crops had survived the autumn following flea beetle damage, however now they are being “hammered” by slugs, she said. “You’d struggle to get on the land and spread slug pellets with a quad bike at the moment and it is so wet that the moisture would dissolve the pellets immediately.” Growers’ thoughts are inevitably turning to alternative choices for land that can’t be drilled in an area where, on the heaviest soils, spring crops are rarely grown. “Spring barley will inevitably be the key choice with growers looking to spray off blackgrass, cultivate and drill in the early spring as soon as conditions allow. “Growers may opt for leaving some fields fallow but that’s not ideal; it delivers no income and the land needs a crop to produce root mass and take moisture out of the soil,” said Christina. “Of course, the way things are, spring seed could be in very short supply this season and anyone with yet unsold grain in the barn might want to think about hanging onto it for spring drilling,” she added. What has been possible to harvest

in terms of maize has been done so on the lighter land, although mud on the roads from the poor field conditions has not gone down well with the public. “It’s a constant problem and growers are doing their best to keep the roads clear in very difficult circumstances. “The land itself is getting compacted and rutted – and despite these challenges it’s important to be mindful of the potential damage that could be done to soils this autumn and a common sense approach is needed, particularly when it comes to redressing the problems when the land is fit to work again. “Growers will be thinking of spraying rape for example but if land drains are flowing should they be doing this? I know operations on the farm have to be done, but don’t forget the basics,” she warned. Christina Scarborough can be contacted via 07969 507082 or christina@cjsagronomy.co.uk.

West Likewise, in the west of the country, unsettled weather has dominated the autumn however AICC Herefordshirebased Hillhampton Technical Services agronomist, Antony Wade, reckoned that growers in the region are further ahead than most in terms of winter cereals drilling. Reasonable weather in September allowed drilling to get underway early on and now 50–60 per cent of crops have been drilled, including winter barley – most of which was completed by the end of October. “In other areas where grass weeds are more problematic they say don’t drill if you can’t spray, but over here growers can afford a slightly different attitude and so drill when they can,” commented Antony, also speaking on the 6th November. “That said, following more rain, some fields are saturated and recently

drilled crops have yet to emerge and so uncertainty remains as to if they will establish or not,” he pointed out. “We will take the opportunities where we can and re-drill where we have to this side of Christmas, or even look to drilling some in the early spring,” he added. Interestingly, although ploughing is out of favour with many, almost all wheat drilling in the past three weeks has been achieved with a plough and combi drill establishment system, achieving reasonable seedbeds in adverse conditions. Despite oilseed rape establishment proving a challenge this autumn, Antony thought that around 80 per cent of crops drilled will survive. “It has been difficult. Flea beetle damage has continued throughout the autumn and it is as bad as we’ve ever had it. “Crops have been sprayed once or twice but if the sprays have no effect then you know the flea beetle are resistant and you just have to let the crops take their chance. “We don’t know to what extent the larval damage is as yet and so we’ll have to make a decision on affected crops, with the aim to put something else in instead when we get an opportunity. “Winter oats drilled in the spring could well be a popular option to replace undrilled land or where crops have been lost, and is certainly an option for land originally planned for rape,” said Antony. “Whatever is planned for the spring, the way this season is shaping up there is likely to be an impact on cash flows and budgets and so growers need to be mindful of what they spend over the coming months,” he concluded.

Drive value with the right spring planting options Openfield’s arable technical manager, Duncan Durno, looks at arable farmers’ planting options for spring crops. With a further reduction in oilseed rape plantings and crops being lost to flea beetle, the area planted with spring crops look set to increase this season. In addition, record levels of rainfall across much of the country during late September and October has disrupted autumn plantings, potentially leading to a further increase above what was originally planned. With this in mind growers need to choose what they drill with careful consideration, not only the field performance of crops and varieties but also their marketability and the wider rotation. Growers should not fall into the trap of only drilling spring cereals which will reduce their first wheat hectarage in subsequent years, impacting on income across the rotation. Spring break crops are also of great value in the fight against black-grass and should be a part of any integrated black-grass control strategy.

The choice of which spring break crop to grow should be down to farm and soil suitability and access to end markets. Growers must drill to soil conditions rather than calendar date. For growers on heavier soils the choices are ultimately limited to spring rape, linseed and beans. Spring rape varieties of note are Lagonda, the highest yielding variety on the Recommended List and Lumen, a very consistent early maturing variety. Spring linseed with its later drilling window allows more time to address black-grass and, importantly, there are buyback contracts available enabling growers to secure forward values and reduce their risk. Spring beans can be more forgiving than other options and can be drilled earlier than the other spring choices. Spring bean varieties Lynx, Fanfare and Vertigo are all performing well on farm – Vertigo is early to mature which will be an advantage on later maturing sites. For growers on lighter soils

both marrowfat and blue pea contracts have very good forward values making them a very viable option when looking at gross margin potential, and are an excellent entry into first wheats.

Largest share While spring break crops will be in high demand, spring barley will make up the largest share of the spring area drilled. The top varieties are all performing at a similar level on farm with good agronomic traits with the main consideration on variety selection being their end market of choice. The largest proportion of the area drilled is likely to be made up of RGT Planet, favoured by the brewing market, and Laureate for the distilling market making it more suitable for growers in the north of the country. LG Diablo is gaining interest and has received full approval for the distilling market, with Propino’s market share in decline, becoming confined to specific end markets. With all this in mind, the starting point should be to talk to your grain marketing contact or marketing agent to assess end market demand and to consider any buyback contract options for the forthcoming season.

New techniques to tackle hidden OSR pathogen in soil Rhizoctonia solani innoculated trial of OSR with seed treatment (left) versus untreated (right) at 80 seeds/m2.

Rhizoctonia solani in soils could result in establishment losses of more than 80 per cent in oilseed rape. Plants that do survive in infected soils are likely to be less vigorous and up to 70 per cent lower yielding, according to results of the ICAROS research project at the University of Nottingham. R. solani strain AG2-1 that affects OSR typically causes early damping off of seedlings, resulting in poor emergence and establishment, reported project lead, Dr Rumiana Ray. It also impacts on root length and lateral root development,

which is especially serious in OSR that depends on a single taproot. The £600,000 Innovate UK ICAROS project, delivered by Syngenta in association with University of Nottingham, with funding from AHDB and BBSRC, has sought to investigate the effectiveness of integrated control measures and a potential new seed treatment to manage the disease. Successive seasons’ trials at University of Nottingham showed a 50 per cent yield loss in OSR on soils infected by R. solani AG2-1, with seed rate having only a small effect on final yield. The trials demonstrated that the presence of AG2-1 reduced early vigour, irrespective of seed rate, trialed at 40 or 80 seeds/m2. Furthermore, GAI development of the crop was significantly reduced at both higher and lower seed rates. Use of the seed treatment increased GAI by more than 70 per cent in infected plots, reported Dr Ray.

CSFB susceptibility Trials observations also revealed that plants subjected to rhizoctonia infection were more susceptible to cabbage stem flea beetle damage, and less able to recover from pest attack. The damage by CSFB was reduced at higher seed rate and by seed treatment in AG2-1 infected soils. Detailed x-ray studies of oilseed rape root structures of growing plants had shown the SDHI fungicide sedaxane – included with fludioxonil and Metalaxyl-M in the three-way trial seed treatment – had been most effective in protecting against root length reduction and lateral root loss. The research highlighted that R. solani impacts can be more severe in dry soils with high porosity, where fungal hyphae can move freely; wet or waterlogged soils typically impede fungal spread and infection, although surface disease spread could occur. Irrespective of seed rate, the seed treatment increased uniform crop development under high disease pressure, added Dr Ray, with yield response of up to 2t/

ha depending on sowing rate and growing season conditions. A report of soil monitoring revealed the geographical reach of AG2-1 was seen across the country, but with a greater incidence in the north of England. Furthermore, the highest concentrations were found following oilseed rape or winter wheat and, to a lesser extent, legumes. The research has helped establish risk factors to assess the potential threats from R. solani AG21, including short rotations between oilseed rape crops or where OSR and winter wheat are grown frequently. Syngenta UK technical manager, Michael Tait added that the consistently more even emergence seen from the seed treatment in the ICAROS trials had further benefits as the crop developed. “The effects of R. solani on OSR development has been clearly evident from the uneven flowering seen in affected crops. Effective control with seed treatment enables more precise agronomy timing throughout the season, along with more even maturity at harvest,” he advised. FG

Keep agrochemical storage lawful

In 2019, HSE and the UK Government tightened legislation surrounding health and safety on farms. This is due to figures showing that 33 deaths occurred on farms in the UK between 2017 and 2018, with some (if not all) being preventable by following proper health and safety measures. Further HSE studies report that agricultural workplace deaths are a staggering 18 times higher than the national industry average. As well as improving safety, checking that all aspects of your farm comply with current laws could help you to avoid a hefty fine or even the closure of your farm. Accidents involving chemicals can range from a spillage which

could leak into the environment or cause physical harm to workers, to a fire which could spread if not contained. Appropriate storage can help to prevent these situations. If you feel that your current method of chemical storage may be inadequate, now is the time to update your facilities. However, you don’t need to feel daunted at this prospect; correct chemical storage is easy to achieve and most requirements can be met in one go with converted shipping containers. Shipping containers are by nature sturdy and secure. With billions of pounds of goods transported in shipping containers around the world each year, integrity and security is a priority. Containers must be weatherproof and secure against thieves from the offset, making them ideal storage facilities for chemicals on a farm. Billie Box has many years of experience converting shipping containers for use by agricultural businesses. Its converted containers meet the BASIS criteria for chemical stores and are available in a range of sizes to suit your needs. FG

Mower giveaway with all new orders

Self-propelled sprayer launches Machinery company Lemken has developed a self-propelled field sprayer, after forming a strategic partnership with a chassis manufacturer in 2017. The Lemken Nova will be available from mid-2020 and offers impressive comfort and efficiency, according to the company. It comes with a spacious cab, a chassis with versatile adjustment options, new automatic boom control, tank volumes of 4,800 or 7,200 litres and working widths from 24-39m. Lemken says particular attention has been paid to creating a comfortable cab, which is essential for long working hours. Sound insulation reduces noise

and stress so that operators can focus fully on driving. There is also an option for a Category 4 three-stage air filter system, which creates permanent positive pressure in the cab to prevent fumes from entering. Automatic climate control, Bluetooth radio and numerous storage options also help to make work more enjoyable, the company adds. Meanwhile, an air-suspended seat gives operators an excellent view of their surroundings and all controls are ergonomically arranged in the armrest. Application technology is controlled by the Lemken MegaSpray on the CCI 800 or CCI 1200 terminal. FG

Special offer on new utility vehicles Honda is offering a 3-3-3 deal on purchases of all new Pioneer utility vehicles this autumn. The offer, available until 31st December 2019, includes three years of zero per cent finance, three years’ subscription to Datatool and a three year full manufacturer warranty. The zero per cent APR hire purchase finance offer spreads the purchase cost into monthly payments over a three-year period, with a 20 per cent deposit required. In November 2018, the company launched free Adventure TrakKING on all new Honda ATVs and Pioneers purchased through an authorised Honda dealer. The anti-theft package, which typically retails at £349 (including installation), includes a monitoring unit that activates as soon as the ignition is switched off and registers unauthorised movement. Honda’s new Pioneer offer includes a free Datatool subscription for three years, worth an additional £309 – meaning a total saving of £658. An SMS is sent to the owner if movement is detected and, if it

continues, an alert is also sent to a monitoring team. If unauthorised movement is confirmed, the team will liaise with the police to aid recovery. The TrakKing Adventure antitheft system is accredited by the police and the latest S5 VTS version features upgrades including a Rider ID tag. This allows the owner to be alerted if the machine moves outside a set Geofence area without the tag being present, even if the keys are in the ignition. Those investing in a new Pioneer between now and the end of 2019 will be able to benefit from a full three-year manufacturer’s warranty which, like the standard two-year warranty, is transferable to a new owner, enhancing the resale value in the event that the machine changes hands. Honda sales operations department manager, Andrew Parr, commented: “We’re delighted to announce our most competitive Pioneer package yet. This is a very

Factory-fitted four-track system is an industry first A brand-new tracked tractor has been added to John Deere’s extensive line-up, boasting unique features likely to suit UK arable farms. David Williams took an early test-drive. Among the updated and new models attracting considerable attention on John Deere’s stand at Agritechnica in early November were its latest 8R tractors. Representing the manufacturer’s most powerful conventional tractors, the 8R series is popular with professional users demanding maximum productivity, so its new models were eagerly anticipated. Previously the line-up included 8R (wheeled) and 8RT (twin-track) variants, with power topping out at 450hp. But the updated series provides an all-new tracked option in the form of the 8RX with four sets of rubber tracks and conventional front axle steering, and maximum power up to 458hp.

8R-series updates Since John Deere introduced its flagship 9RX with up to 670hp (max) and four equal-sized tracks, the addition of a smaller four-tracked model in the 8R series has been widely predicted. Development and testing since development started in 2016 has been extensive but, despite the fact that this new product launch has been one of John Deere’s largest investments ever, with more than 100 test units operating, the company and customers selected to test the new model did an excellent job of keeping it under wraps and few pictures have appeared of machines working. With the 8RX model’s official launch planned for Agritechnica this year, Farmers Guide was one of a handful of agricultural magazines from around the world invited to an exclusive press preview this summer. It was at John Deere’s Waterloo tractor production plant and, as well as seeing early units coming off the production line,

there was also an extensive test-drive on fields adjacent to the factory. The full range of 8R models has been updated and, from the outside, the most obvious change is revised styling. There are five new 8R wheeled models ranging from 280–410 rated horsepower, and John Deere claims class-leading efficiency for the latest line-up with up to 94 per cent total tractor efficiency. All the new models are backed by John Deere’s Fuel Guarantee Programme from the start, for both field and transport tasks.

Power and efficiency All 8R-series models are powered by John Deere 9-litre PowerTech PVS and PSS engines and meet the latest Stage 5 emissions standards. The engines are similar to previous models but with extra power, and a new eVisco radiator fan improves cooling efficiency. Transmission options include 16/5 PowerShift for wheeled models up to the 8R 340, and the e23 with Efficiency Manager is available across the

range. AutoPowr IVT is an option for all models except the most powerful 8R 410. The rear brakes are upgraded, with double the performance of previous versions and can stop the tractor from 50kph more quickly than previous models could from 40kph. The rear brakes are so effective that front brakes aren’t needed up to 50kph, but can be ordered as an option.

Cab upgrades Cab access is improved with 25 per cent wider steps. The door handle is lowered, making it easier to reach from the ground and the opening angle is wider. Right hand side steps are now included in base configuration. There are new lights making it easier to approach and leave the cab in the dark. The mirrors are improved, and there is an integrated front camera. Externally the cab is similar to before but inside it feels much larger. The cab ceiling is 5cm higher as the air conditioning has been uprated and relocated under the cab. The 8R-series cabs have always been popular for their low sound levels, but the latest design is even quieter. continued over...

The exclusive press event featured new 7R, 8R, 8RT and 8RX tractors, as well as an all-new electric drive transmission.

All 8R-series tractors have been updated with more power, extra features and a new cab.

The 8RX has similar turning characteristics to 8R wheeled tractors but provides extra traction and lower ground pressure.

Another improvement on the latest models is the fridge, which is easier to access and has double the previous capacity at 11 litres. In-cab entertainment is controlled through a 6.5in touch-display, with Apple CarPlay compatibility and improved Bluetooth connectivity. Sound quality for phone calls and media is enhanced. Precision agriculture upgrades include the latest StarFire 6000 integrated satellite receiver, which acquires a satellite signal faster from startup and provides 30 per cent greater accuracy at speeds over 15kph. It can also provide accurate guidance down to just 100m/hr. On-line field management including field boundaries, guidance lines, and set-up data, as well as crop planning and documentation can all be managed through the web-based MyJohnDeere Operations Centre platform. A new feature coming in 2020 is AutoSetup, making it possible to download all field, machine and implement data for individual jobs direct to the tractor. This makes the tractor ready for use immediately it arrives at the field and reduces the possibility of errors. There are four specification levels; including Signature, Ultimate, Premium and Select. Top variants include top level seat, infotainment, refrigerator, lighting, mirrors, cameras, CommandCentre and activations. JD-Link Connect telematics is available for all versions and comes with the Connectivity Package including five years’ subscription. The award-winning CommandPro joystick, introduced previously on largest models in the 6R range, is available with AutoPowr IVT transmission. Self-cancelling indicators have been added and a new e-Active seat is now available with integrated heating and cooling, plus a two-zone, two-mode massage system to improve comfort during long working days. Seat suspension is improved. The seat can be swivelled 40 degrees right and 25 degrees left, and an additional footrest near the front right-hand cab pillar increases operator comfort.

Track system development

New cabs across the range feature improved access with wider steps, a wider opening door and improved lighting.

The cabs have more interior space, mainly due to a higher internal roof. A new media system and speakers includes a 6.5in touch-screen control.

John Deere developed the 8RX in response to growing demand for a versatile tractor offering improved soil protection for a wide range of field tasks, from heavy cultivations to top work. Alternative solutions were considered, including half-tracks and bolt-on four-track conversions, but these were rejected for various reasons. John Deere’s solution is a tractor specifically designed for tracks front and rear. The track units were developed for the application, and sized for optimum flotation, grip and manoeuvrability. The engine, cab and transmission are shared across the 8R range, but RX models have beefedup axles, suspension and steering. The result is a tractor which allows users to make the most of its performance and capability in all situations. Drive to the tracks is positive rather than friction, the overall width is under 3m, and maximum speed is 40kph even for continuous operation at maximum weight.

And the 8RX’s clever design and construction means that there are no additional speed or use restrictions. Steering action is similar to wheeled models, and avoids ridging, which can occur during tight headland turns by twin-track machines. When turning, the pivot point is below the centre of the rear axle, similar to wheeled versions, and the tracks remain firmly planted on the ground. Stability and steering performance on sides-slopes is also improved over twin-track machines. Ground pressure is significantly less than for wheeled models at under 0.5-bar, even at maximum weight, and there is even less soil disturbance, making the 8RX ideal for seedbed preparation and drilling. A primary objective was equal weight distribution between the axles for maximum flotation; reducing compaction and soil damage. The new 8RX achieves a 50/50 split, with 2–4 per cent slip. The ground contact area is 20 per cent greater than for an 8RT twin-track model fitted with 30in tracks, and the turning radius is almost 2m less than an equivalent 8R tractor on large front tyres. New four-point cab suspension ensures a smooth ride on the rubber bands, and there is no front axle suspension as tests showed no benefit over the long tracks’ natural ride improvement due to their bridging effect. Maximum gross weight is 24t, of which 18.7t is the vehicle’s unladen weight. John Deere explained that for most applications the equal weight distribution and effective grip means no additional ballast will be needed. The 8RX line-up includes four models – the 310, 340, 370 and 410.

The new track units were designed especially for the application and 8RX tractors feature a strengthened design to withstand the greater forces from the tracks. There are no additional speed or use restrictions, and travel speeds up to 40kph are permitted.

8RT series twin-track models have also been updated with more power, and will remain the preferred choice for primary cultivations.

Test-drive The 8RX test drive included a 370 model with a wide trailed cultivator. With AutoPowr IVT transmission, the combination quickly achieved target speed after headland turns, and the engine revs reduced for greater fuel economy as soon as the set cruise speed was achieved. The cab was quiet, there was little noise from the track units and the new cab suspension and premium seat gave a comfortable ride. Starting off under full power with the cultivator in the ground, there was no sign of track slip. When turning at the headlands the tight turning radius was impressive. The steering felt little different to comparable wheeled models – it was light and precise, and watching the tracks during tight turns they gripped well, without creating ridges in the loose soil. With the implement raised out of work, only the cleat patterns from the front and rear tracks were visible, and the surface remained level. Visibility was excellent, including to the front where the wide-set tracks allowed a clear view down past the sides of the engine. At the rear there was a clear view of the drawbar and implement. The demonstration provided plenty of opportunity to assess the new track system’s performance on land, which would have revealed any shortcomings, and the results were impressive. With growing attention to looking after soils and reducing compaction, while also offering flexibility for a wide range of tasks; John Deere’s new 8RX tractors are bound to be popular and dealers will be busy next year satisfying demand for demonstrations.

Twin-track updates

The test-drive demonstrated the excellent visibility.

John Deere’s popular twin-track 8RT series remains available, offering alternative performance advantages to the new 8RX. Four 8RT models are available in new 310, 340, 370 and 410 variants. The 8RT’s large rubber twin-tracks are ideal for straight line pulling tasks on dryer, loose

soils which means it is likely to be selected for the heaviest draft work, including primary cultivations. Like other 8R models, the most obvious identifier of the latest version is the new styling and the cab shares the improvements of other models in the latest 8R series. Battery over-heating was an occasional issue on previous versions, and on the latest models it’s repositioned at the rear where ambient heat is reduced. Ballast weights have been improved for easier fitting and removal.

New electric transmission Also revealed for the first time during Farmers Guide’s visit was a new electric drive transmission which will be available for the 8R series within two years. The exclusive press event included a visit to the research and development centre, where there was an opportunity to meet the team responsible for the new drive system. John Deere has displayed several concept electric drives previously, but the new eAutoPowr transmission remained a close-guarded secret until now, despite having been in development since 2011. eAutoPowr works on a similar principle to the current AutoPowr IVT transmission, offering stepless speed selection over the full range. The main difference is that in a conventional IVT transmission, drive is through a combination of hydraulic and mechanical paths, with hydraulic pumps adjusting power delivery for stepless speed control. In the eAutoPowr transmission the more efficient mechanical drive components are retained, but the less efficient hydraulic drive section is replaced by two extremely durable brushless electric motors. One is direct coupled to the engine, so operates at engine speed and the second motor is coupled to the planetary gears. Mode selection is through a drive system similar to the e23 transmission’s power-shift continued over...

components. In mode 1, all the drive is electric, whereas when full power is needed mode 2 is selected for full mechanical drive. Electrical power is from a generator between the flywheel and transmission and, as well as powering the transmission and drive wheels, electricity can also be supplied to power implements and attachments through a pair of rear sockets. Each socket is capable of supplying the total 100kW available, or a proportion of the total can be supplied through each. Supply is managed by the tractor’s systems, and all that is required from the implement is information regarding the

power and frequency needed. Like the established AutoPowr transmission – with automatic performance management, the engine maintains the minimum revs to supply the electrical power needed. Asked why John Deere hasn’t removed the gearbox completely and adopted direct electric drive through wheel motors instead, the design team explained that the current mechanical transmission is extremely efficient with minimal power losses, and there is no need to replace it. As well as providing external electrical power for implements, eAutoPowr models retain a conventional PTO for compatibility with existing machinery. The PTO drive is direct mechanical with minimal power loss. Changing to electric PTO drive would reduce efficiency as the engine’s mechanical power output would have to be converted to electrical power, then back to mechanical power to drive the PTO and implement. Hydraulic pumps and services retain current mechanical drive which is efficient; but it was acknowledged that potential benefits of changing to electric drive in future would include greater control and easier automation.

User benefits For users, speed control through electric drive is easier and more precise, and acceleration is also improved. A further advantage, according to the New 7R series tractors have also been announced including a flagship 7R 330 with up to 373hp available for transport and PTO tasks.

engineers, is that with electric drive replacing the hydraulic component of the IVT unit, the result is an almost totally silent transmission. Maximum gains over the standard IVT unit are available under partial or variable load, when electric propulsion replaces less efficient hydraulic drive. This means that, for constant heavy draft work when drive through the transmission is direct mechanical, a tractor with the new transmission will provide similar efficiency to AutoPowr models. But in a partial load situation and where the load varies, the new system offers greater efficiency and fuel economy. John Deere’s current 8R series tractors are recognised for their class-leading fuel efficiency, and with the new electric drive transmission, performance figures should be even better.

Practical application John Deere has worked with Joskin developing a tractor and slurry tanker combination which optimises drive performance using electrical power from the tractor. Two of the tanker’s drive axles are powered by a 100kW electric motor – operated through a standard AEF ISO socket. The result is precisely controlled driven wheels on the tanker which provide traction, reducing wheel slip and ground damage. Potential future developments include using smaller tractors to pull wider implements, with optimum use made of the engine power available by distributing it through electrical cables to where it is most useful. The design engineers explained that combined tractor and implements solutions using electrical

Machinery power offer real potential for improved efficiency and cost savings. Using some of the power available to drive an implement’s wheels could allow up to double the working width behind the same tractor, but at lower speeds. This would result in a typical work rate increase of 45 per cent, overall fuel savings of 45 per cent, and a 25 per cent saving in production costs per hectare. Further potential for John Deere’s new system includes use of the tractor as a portable generator, with either 700V of DC current, or 480V of variable frequency three-phase AC available. The new eAutoPowr transmission won the only Gold Medal awarded at this year’s Agritechnica, and the system is expected to be available for a limited number of 8R-series models by late 2021.

7R updates New 7R-series tractors were also demonstrated during the American press event, and the highlight was a new flagship for the five-model line-up. The 7R 330 has up to 373hp available with Intelligent

Power Management for certain situations. The engines use a combined DOC and DPF within one package which keeps the unit compact, improving visibility and styling. No change to the engines was required to meet latest Stage 5 emissions regulations as previous 7R models already achieved the standard. Transmission options include e23 powershift or AutoPowr IVT, but for the latest 7R series with AutoPowr transmission a new option is the CommandPro joystick. The cab is new, with the same specification as 8R-series models. Like the 8R series, an 11-litre fridge is available, and an improved 360-degree LED lighting system provides 60 per cent more illumination than the previous top-specification option. The same upgraded media package is available, operated through a 6.5in touchscreen. Cab access is easier, and approach and departure lighting is added with timed operation. The cab suspension is also improved. Precision farming upgrades include the Starfire

Discovery of diagrams after 10 years boosts sales Front row (l-r): William Robinson, Simon Hewson and Thomas Knights; back row (l-r): Phil MacIntosh and Dan Pearson.

Lincolnshire manufacturer Agricast says it has seen a sudden increase in orders from Eastern Europe, after rediscovering 10-year-old diagrams for specialist parts. The company – which manufactured a range of specialist fastener products for Simba machines and sold them as OEM parts – came across the original machine shop diagrams for several parts a few months ago. It subsequently decided to add them to its range of replacement parts online. Since adding the pins, bushes and bespoke bolts for Simba machines to its website, Agricast has received

large orders from Bulgaria and the Czech Republic – countries it has not previously supplied. The Simba brand, which originated in Sleaford, Lincolnshire, ceased to exist in 2017 but its machines are still used around the world. General manager William Robinson said: “We came across the original drawings for these parts by accident. They were in an old box of paperwork, which hadn’t been touched for about 10 years! We knew that farmers were paying a lot of money for these parts and recognised we could still manufacture them at a lower price point, which would

be attractive for people and so it’s definitely been proved!” He added: “I’m not sure why we’ve seen such a sudden interest from Eastern Europe, but it’s very welcome! I assume more people are buying second hand UK-made machines due to the weakening pound and when they need to replace the wearing parts, they’re finding us. “There’s also been an increase in big block farming in Eastern Europe, with several thousand-hectare farms not uncommon. Cultivating so much land is going to take its toll on machines and again it’s another reason why people are searching for replacement wearing parts online and finding us. “As well as interest from Eastern Europe, we’ve had a healthy number of orders from farmers in the UK. “ In addition to sending the replacement parts for use on the old Simba machines, the company has also supplied a consignment of its Press Roll Rings to a large machinery

Like the original Simba ring, which was designed for use on Double Press and CultiPress packers, the PRR is a registered design available in two sizes – 610 and 710mm diameters.

Cover crop sowing unit now for power and combi harrows Seedbed preparation and sowing of a cover crop can be carried out in a single pass when Pottinger’s Tegosem cover crop sowing unit is used with a Lion power harrow or Fox compact combination harrow. seed with soil before the roller passes over, Pottinger said. The rear roller consolidates the soil while pressing the seed down at the same time. Using a Tegosem to sow a cover crop on a Lion power harrow or Fox compact combination is increasingly being used with success for the reseeding of grassland – especially following an invasion of white grubs. The Tegosem is fitted as standard with an intuitive control terminal that regulates and monitors the metering shaft and sets the seed flow rate electronically. The metering shaft is controlled electronically, independently of driving speed, and can be set infinitely-variably from the tractor cab. The control terminal also has a kg/ha display; priming function; headland management system; tank emptying function; automatic calibration; and counters for total hours, hours per day, total hectares

The Tegosem can be mounted on all rigid versions of Lion power harrow and on Fox compact combinations with a working width of 3–4m. It is designed for three-point machines and is equipped with mounting brackets and a loading platform. The Tegosem’s loading platform, steps and seed hopper form a compact unit which is mounted on the rear roller. It can be used to sow a wide spectrum of seed material, from mustard, grass and rapeseed, through to cereals at a lower seed density. The metering system is driven electrically and seed material is distributed pneumatically using reversible distribution plates. The seed can be deposited either in front of or behind the rear roller. All that is needed is for the distributor rail to be repositioned. The advantage of placing seed in front of the rear roller is that the tine rotors cover the

and hectares per day. The calibration procedure is started by pressing a button located on the machine and a calibration bag is provided as standard equipment. Commenting on what makes the Tegosem stand out, Pottinger said it is the level indicator for monitoring the contents of the seed hopper, a DGPS ground speed sensor, a sensor on the top link for starting and stopping metering, plus the loading platform. There are also two metering

shafts (fine and coarse) that can be interchanged without the need for tools to complete the package. Pottinger said it places great emphasis on accessibility and ease of filling. As a result, on the rigid threepoint machines, the unit is mounted on the rear roller. The seed hopper has a volume of 200 litres. The technical prerequisite for using the Tegosem on a Lion or a Fox is a three-pin socket for controlling the machine and the fan drive. FG

Machinery

Unrivalled versatility from iconic off- and on-road vehicle

A series of mid-October practical demonstration days provided an opportunity for potential and current Unimog users to find out about the latest models. David Williams was there. Unimogs have been manufactured by Mercedes-Benz since 1948, and the brand’s popularity with UK farmers and agricultural contractors is growing. Superb performance for transport tasks has become the primary reason most farms invest, while low running and ownership costs increase the appeal. Exceptional off-road performance plus a range of attachments including three-point linkage and PTOs, means they can also double up as a tractor for field work including light cultivations. The four ‘Unimog on the Farm’ demonstration days were strategically located around the UK including Yorkshire, Suffolk, Gloucestershire and Fife, and this year’s event included an invitation for owners of heritage machines to bring them to display. A presentation by Unimog specialists at each location highlighted design features and benefits of the latest models, and provided an overview of the range.

lengths in the Unimog line-up. Combining the off-road ability of a tractor with commercial vehicle handling, braking and steering, the Unimog can travel, where permitted, at up to 90kph. High payloads can be carried and the largest model in the UGE range – the U530, has a permissible gross vehicle weight up to 40t, depending on the trailer and body. Fuel consumption figures are impressive – averaging between 7.4–11.5mpg for a range of tasks, and with 1,400-hour service intervals, running costs are low. Three years’ warranty is standard, and up to five years is an option. Used Unimogs sell well, attracting high prices, so depreciation is low. All Unimogs have a mechanical

transmission providing working speeds from 0.13–90kph. Hydrostatic drive is available for extra flexibility, and is fitted in addition to the standard transmission. When infinite speed control is needed, the clutch drive disconnects from the engine and the hydrostatic motor provides drive to the gearbox, with power supplied from the vehicle’s hydraulic system. Back-up for the vehicles is impressive and although there are only four specialist sales outlets covering the UK, there are also 23 specialist service dealers, but for breakdowns the whole MercedesBenz commercial vehicle network is available, ensuring minimum downtime. Add to this that over 94 per cent of parts ordered are immediately available from UK stock, with non-UK parts supplied within 24 hours, and the after-sales support is excellent. For users needing to fix costs of ownership; service and extended

warranty packages are available. Three years’ servicing, with full driveline and vehicle warranty, costs £280 per month, and budgeted servicing up to five years is available, with full factory warranty.

Agricultural appeal The demonstration days gave existing users an opportunity to meet and discuss experiences, and allowed potential users to experience the range of Unimogs at work. Farmers Guide attended the Yorkshire event, where a woodland test track with deep, muddy ruts would have stopped most other off-road vehicles but didn’t even require diff-lock engagement on the Unimog U5023 UHE and U423 UHG models tested. An on-road course over a few miles provided an opportunity to tow a large trailer at higher speeds, and a wide selection of mounted and towed agricultural implements including mowers, rakes and a forage wagon continued over...

Up to 300hp The Unimog line-up includes UHE extreme off-road models, and UGE all-terrain implement carrier variants. UGE models account for most UK sales and are supplied for on- and off-highway applications. In total, there are 10 models in six wheelbase For farms with forage to collect and transport, a Unimog and forage wagon could provide a sensible solution.

Northern dealer Long-established Northern England and Borders Unimog dealer Lloyds was represented at the Yorkshire event by sales representative Andrew Hines. Lloyds has been a main dealer since 2015 although Andrew joined the company in May this year. “We operate through eight branches providing sales and service to customers throughout our trading area,” he explained. “There is certainly growing interest in the Unimog line-up, mainly due to the significant fuel and time savings available.”

were each matched with suitable models for a grassland working demonstration. Although Unimogs are unlikely to be chosen over conventional tractors for primary cultivations, their ability to perform field work if needed helps justify a place on the farm or contracting fleet. Most agricultural users select Unimogs for their efficient farm transport capabilities, saving time and fuel, but equipping machines with a PTO and rear linkage means they can perform

Andrew has sold two new Unimogs since he joined the company, including a U423 for use on railways and a U430 for agricultural haulage. “Compared to other fast tractors the Unimog is much more capable on the road,” he said. “The higher purchase price means the Unimog can appear more expensive, but when the higher retained value is considered this tends to even out over a few years. Then there are the fuel and time savings available, which are significant. “We have quite a few Unimog

the work of medium-sized tractors if a breakdown occurs or during busy periods. Central tyre inflation is a popular option, allowing pressures to be increased for road travel, then decreased at the touch of a button for field work. Unimog’s design includes air supply pipelines running through the axles with no risk of snagging on obstructions. According to head of Unimog Katie Purcell, investing in central tyre inflation and a PTO makes a lot of sense, increasing versatility, but also enhancing resale value later.

users in our trading area and these include contractors and farmers, with most machines used within farm and forestry enterprises. But of our overall sales, the number of machines supplied for railway maintenance is the largest.” Andrew commented that at the time of the demonstration day, Lloyds had four used machines available including part exchanges, an ex-demonstrator and an ex-hire machine. “It’s a great product to be able to offer customers, with superb reliability and so unbeatably versatile.”

Another useful option for farm work is VarioPilot. This allows the user to move the steering wheel and pedals for left- or right-hand drive. No tools are needed, and the user simply releases the locking lever, removes a dashboard panel and slides the steering wheel and pedals across. The process takes just a few minutes and, for tasks such as verge cutting, it increases convenience and safety. Other situations where it assists the user include working alongside a harvester when operating the

Unimog from the left-hand seat makes it easier to keep an eye on trailer loading progress without neck strain. Because VarioPilot makes the machine compatible for English or European road use, it’s another option described by Katie Purcell as a shrewd investment – appealing to a wider market and increasing the machine’s resale value. Tasks for which Unimogs are ideal include transporting seed, fertiliser and water to machines working in the fields. Swapping between a rear platform or a water tank takes little time with just four pins to remove and replace to secure the load.

Whether operating in fields or on public roads, the Unimog feels extremely capable and is easy to drive. The cab is spacious and comfortable, and the controls are well arranged. Visibility is excellent, especially to the front where the short bonnet leaves a clear view. Visibility to the rear isn’t as good as from a tractor seat but removing the rear tailgate from the load platform makes it much easier to watch rear-mounted implements. Manoeuvrability is good and was highlighted by the ease with which tight turns were negotiated on the woodland test track.

itself is light but has a reasonable amount of ‘feel’. A wide range of transmission settings is available, including front, rear and centre diff-locks but, as the Unimog proved so capable in the muddy conditions, the standard full-time 4wd on-road mode, with automatic gear selection and changing, proved more than sufficient. In manual mode, gear changes are made using buttons on a stalk below the steering wheel and is easy to use. Ride quality on the road is good, as the tyres and seat soak up most of the bumps, but off-road the ride is harsher due to the extremely stiff suspension, especially with an empty rear load bed. The cab is reasonably quiet, partly because of its design but also because the engine's high torque means revs can be kept low, unless PTO-driven implements are operated requiring a constant speed.

Jason Burroughs from RW & JR Burroughs, based at Southend-onSea, Essex was at the Suffolk Unimog event. Jason works in partnership with his father Roger farming approximately 400ha of arable crops, and also runs a construction and landscaping business for clients including local authorities, the MOD and environmental organisations. Since 1994 the family has owned five Unimogs, and Jason said the appeal is their versatility as they are used for farm transport, and for moving plant and materials for the construction business. “We had two MB-Trac 1000 tractors which were excellent, which was what led to us buying our first Unimog,” Jason explained. “We bought the new U1600 from our nearest dealer Ibbetts, and upgraded it to a more powerful U1600 with a 211hp engine in 1998, then replaced that with another U1600 in 2002. A new 286hp U400 was bought from South Cave Tractors in late 2008 and we replaced that with a new U430 from Ibbetts in spring 2016. The latest model has 299hp, but the main advantage is massive torque back-

Verdict Sales of Unimogs in the UK are increasing, and with many farms keen to improve compliance with road transport regulations, while also wanting to reduce transport time and

up, which improves performance considerably.” The Unimog is covered by a National Operators Licence, taxed and tested and is run on white diesel. Drivers have to have an HGV 1 licence. “Running it as a commercial vehicle gives us the flexibility to use it legally for anything we need, including on motorways where it’s quite capable of matching conventional articulated lorries for speed. We sell straw from the farm and, although most is sold to a merchant who transports it himself, we also use the Unimog for deliveries occasionally. Knowing that we have the traction to cope with difficult ground conditions at the destination is reassuring.” Jason said that the early Unimogs provided a cross-over between transport and farm field tasks, and were used for ploughing, cultivations and spraying. “The latest Unimog doesn’t have a linkage or PTO, it’s used only for transport. It has central tyre information which makes a big difference to where we can travel, saving ground damage

in sensitive areas. The tyres’ ground contact area can be almost doubled, and we have carried out work for coastal authorities on sand where at road pressures the machine wouldn’t have travelled. It helps resale values too.” Jason admits to being a Unimog enthusiast, but says the vehicles are as comfortable as a lorry and with a 17.5t payload capacity, are ideal for moving the company’s diggers. Reliability has been good and Jason said that running and ownership costs are reasonable. “When we traded in our U400 after seven years, it had retained 65 per cent of what we paid for it. We look after our machinery, but that’s very impressive. The Unimog suits us.”

costs, this trend looks set to continue. More than 200 new machines have been sold in 2019, and speaking with owners at the demonstration day, it’s clear that a Unimog’s versatility is considered an advantage over conventional tractors and commercial vehicles. One farmer at the event commented that a lorry can transport his crops more efficiently than a tractor from the field edge to the store, but a tractor is still needed as the lorry can’t travel on the field. His Unimog carries out the whole operation from field to yard, and is safer and quicker. FG

Transport and haulage Unimog dealer Rygor has 10 sales and service depots across the Midlands, south, and south-west England, from where it looks after the full range of Mercedes-Benz commercial vehicles. Unimog sales manager Matt Cleave works between the Westbury, Wilts and Heathrow, Berks depots and was at the Yorkshire demonstration day. He explained that most Unimog sales are to agricultural users and contractors with main applications involving transport and haulage. “The relatively low fuel consumption and high travel speeds are an advantage and downtime is minimal with long service intervals, while reliability is excellent with all components designed for a long working life. “We sell and hire machines, with most hire agreements being between 6–12 weeks,” he added.

High residuals

East Yorkshire-based South Cave Tractors has supplied and serviced Unimogs since the early 1970s and is experiencing growing demand. Advantages including saving up to a third in diesel costs contribute to thier appeal, explained sales executive Ben Middleton.

Martyn Fawcett of service dealer AC Price was also at the demonstration. Based at Ingleton, Lancashire, AC Price has sold and serviced Unimogs for 34 years and the dealer has a strong reputation for thorough reconditioning and rebuilds. “They are definitely seen as a multi-purpose vehicle by agricultural users,” Martyn commented. “They can do most of the jobs of a conventional tractor during busy periods, but it’s the high residual values that helps justify their place on the farm fleet. We manufacture and supply accessories, including a hydraulic brake adapter allowing conventional tractor trailers to operate safely with the Unimog, and we also manufacture a trailer pick-up hitch.”

Innovative range sets new standard for spreading lime

When the XE is hydraulically unfolded, the two spreading discs are placed at a fixed distance of 6m and fed via two powerful side belts.

The trailed Bredal F8 spreader is Isobus-computerised and includes a GPS-controlled section control for high-precision and graduated application of fertilisers.

At Agritechnica 2019, Bredal presented its innovative range of lime and fertiliser spreaders including the new foldable XE with section control. It increases the working width for lime up to 30m and for commercial fertilisers up to 48m. With GPS-controlled section closure and edge spreading, the spreaders achieve very high precision levels. This increase in spreading distance is thanks to a completely new 6m wide and foldable XE spread section. When the XE is hydraulically unfolded, the two spreading discs are placed at a fixed distance of 6m and fed via two powerful side belts. Previously the maximum was 12–16m for lime, but now the spreading width has been dramatically increased – up to 48m for commercial fertiliser and up to 30m for lime. The XE spread sections are offered for the towed spreaders K105XE, K135XE and K165XE, all of which can be used for spreading both lime and commercial fertilisers. The carriages are Isobus-controlled and can be supplied with weight cells, GPS-controlled section closure

The lift-hung F4 spreader is Isobuscomputerised and includes a GPScontrolled section control for highprecision and graduated application of fertilisers.

and edge spreading as well as GPS allocation maps. With a wide selection of spreading discs, it is possible to optimise for different lime and mineral fertiliser grades. The largest version, the K165-XE, holds up to 25t of lime and all three XE models can spread up to 2,200kg/min. “With the spreading width of 30m, the tracks can be used for spreading lime when the crops are established. This prolongs the season for spreading lime, so the capacity can be better utilised,” explained Bredal A/S director, Anders Buhl.

N World’s first magnesium piston chainsaw

Recycling liquid waste to land Recycling liquid waste to agricultural land is not only cost-effective, it’s also environmentally responsible, providing nutritional benefits to soils and cropping. Whites Recycling collects non-hazardous liquid waste, produced by the food and drinks industry or AD plants, from the customers’ production facilities and transports it to local registered agricultural field sites for recycling. Its main method of spreading the recycled waste is via umbilical tractor system to maximise the nutrient benefit to the land. With over 30 years’ experience, Whites goes one step further by offering advice from FACTS-trained

agronomists, supporting its network of farm liaising managers who can provide valuable information on the nutritional requirements for customers’ soil and cropping. According to agricultural technical advisor Jonathan Lloyd (left), ‘‘We offer a service which delivers free phosphorous and potassium from an organic source which is free from injurious weeds and fully regulated by the Environment Agency.‘‘ Operating in Norfolk, Suffolk, Hereford, Wales, Northampton, East Midlands, South and North Lincolnshire, North Yorkshire and Teeside, it recycles over one million tonnes of liquid waste annually. FG

Adding to its range of high-performance tools for professionals, Stihl has launched the new MS 400 C-M which is the world’s first chainsaw featuring a magnesium piston. Offering the highest maximum speed (14,000 rpm) in the 60cm3class, the new 66.8cc 2-MIX engine has greater displacement, providing both more power and torque than the MS 362C-M, as well as rapid acceleration. As a world first, the MS 400 C-M features a new magnesium piston. Lightweight and durable, the piston weighs just 70g, which is 14 per cent lighter than the aluminium piston in the MS 362 C-M. Thanks to these new intelligent design features and materials, the

MS 400 C-M has an impressive power-to-weight ratio of 1.45kg/ kW making it ideal to use when working in the forest, especially over prolonged periods. In addition to the new 66.8cc engine, the MS 400 C-M features Stihl’s unique M-Tronic 3.0 technology including the new calibration process and an improved HD2 filter. The chainsaw also features ElastoStart technology for effortless starting. Designed for forestry and arb professionals, the MS 400 C-M can be used for a range of applications, including felling, de-limbing and cutting to size. The MS 400 C-M is available in 16, 18 and 20in versions, with the latter version featuring an ES light guidebar. FG

Latest tracked tractor is no compromise

Even with increased performance promised by the latest agricultural tractor tyres, tractor manufacturers and users are looking to tracks to provide an alternative solution to optimise traction and reduce compaction, particularly for field work. David Williams visited a Norfolk farm where the latest entrant to the half-track tractor market has been working this autumn. Norfolk farming business NE Salmon moved to Great Fransham near Dereham in 1955, and has used tracked tractors for all cultivations since a Doe Triple-D was replaced by the family’s first steel-tracked machine. “My grandfather and father expanded the farm from just 100ha, preferring tracked tractors to wheeled alternatives as they coped better with our challenging soils and allowed them to get the work done,” explains Ed Salmon. “When the first rubber-tracked Track Marshall became available offering extra convenience and ease of transport, they moved

away from steel tracks, and we have remained with rubber tracks since, for all cultivations and drilling. In recent years we have also adopted a controlled traffic farming regime (CTF), where practical.”

Maintaining soil condition Just under 2,000ha is farmed which is a mix of owned and contract-farmed land, and for more than 40 years a 10-year rotation has been practised. This is appreciated by Ed as he has inherited soils which are in good condition and black-grass populations remain low, helping

the farm maintain a strong reputation as a high quality, clean seed producer. Crops include oilseed rape, winter wheat, winter barley, spring barley, spring beans, sugar beet, maize, herbage seed, potatoes and vining peas. The maize is for a local digester for which Ed and his team carry out pre-drilling cultivations and the potatoes are grown within the rotation on lighter land rented to a local farmer. Soil types range from sandy with flint, to chalky boulder clay and vary considerably within individual fields, creating a challenge for management. The farm’s Vaderstad drill is fitted with SeedEye which counts every seed and regulates drilling rates to maintain intended populations for an area, and variable rate seeding is practised, except for seed crops which are usually drilled by weight. Although CTF is used, Ed stresses that he remains flexible in his approach. “We are still evaluating its benefits,” he explains. “It’s harvest CTF currently, and the combine, chaser wagon and bale chasers all stick to the tramlines. We spread a lot of muck too, so the spreaders are also compatible with our tramline spacing.

Tracks and wheels

The Claas Terra Tracs are the first with full suspension and give a smooth ride and maintain excellent grip, according to users Ed Salmon and Daniel Edwards.

The current farm fleet includes three main wheeled tractors used primarily for transport tasks, and three twin-track crawlers; two of which carry out most of the field work while an older Claas 95E has been retained as a reserve and carries out lighter duties. However, while the crawlers help protect the soil structure and relieve compaction, a big disadvantage of the skid-steer turning action are ridges created during headland turns which, if left, have an adverse affect on subsequent field work through the rest of the growing season. Ed has considered alternative tracked systems in recent years, but found nothing suitable. “We trialled after-market track units to replace wheels on conventional tractors, but they wouldn’t follow the ground contours well enough. We also tried some manufacturer-produced half-

50 www.farmersguide.co.uk December 2019

24-53 Dec.indd 50

13/11/2019 15:26


Machinery track models but it was obvious that the weight was concentrated on a small ground area, so compaction wasn’t much different to a wheeled tractor.

Brand experience As well as the elderly Claas crawler, the farm also runs a modern Claas Lexion 780 combine and a Scorpion handler and Ed said the local dealer, Manns at Thursford, provides excellent back-up. “The team at Manns knew we were looking at tracked tractor options and asked if we would be interested in trying a new half-track type system which they felt would provide a solution. Our combine has Claas tracks and we can’t fault them; we know other manufacturers also fit Claas tracks to products such as potato harvesters and we believe they are the best on the market.” A new Axion 960TT with half-tracks was delivered to the farm in August, just in time for autumn cultivations and drilling. “It is just what we have been waiting for,” confirms Ed. “We put it on our 7f semi-mounted plough and we couldn’t fault it. Then, as soon as we started drilling, it was used on our Vaderstad 8m drill and it’s excellent. Having this much power in this configuration makes it incredibly versatile so we will be selling one of our twin-track crawlers and using the Axion for ploughing, cultivations and drilling.” Because the new Axion TT is the farm’s first Claas tractor, an Axion 960 wheeled version was loaned to the farm until the new model arrived. Main machinery operator Daniel Edwards says he was sceptical at first. “I hadn’t used a Claas tractor previously so didn’t know what to expect but as soon as I drove it for the first time I was impressed. It performed well and the comfort amazed me. The

cab was excellent, I liked the controls – including the CMotion joystick which is the same as our combine. The new Cebis display is easy to use – I couldn’t fault it.” Apart from the wheels, the farm’s new TT version is almost identical. “If anything, now I have used the tracked version I prefer it,” comments Daniel. “It’s quiet, and just as comfortable even on the road. It’s very stable, the tracks feel planted to the ground and there is none of the swaying which occurs with large tyres.”

Axion 900TT The new Axion 900TT tracked variant is available in two models – the 445hp 960 and the 355hp 930. The new Claas track system is the first with full suspension and the company says it was designed based on 30 years’ track experience with Lexion combines. For the tractor application where higher torque loading is a factor, the new tracks have a larger spoked drive wheel with rubber blocks to aid selfcleaning. Higher track tension prevents slip, and improves pressure distribution. The new track suspension not only increases traction capability, but with front axle and cab suspension it provides unprecedented comfort for the user, claims Claas. CMatic infinitely variable transmission is standard, and drive is through a cardan shaft to the track units. The wheeled tractors’ trumpet housings are replaced by ‘saxophone’ housings to bridge the height and length difference. The new Axion Terra Trac units can pivot from +8 to -15 degrees, maintaining optimum ground contact over uneven surfaces. Rubber track options include 635, 735 and

At 11kph during an uphill run on loose, cultivated soil with the 8m drill behind, the wheel-slip indicator remained on zero.

890mm, and all maintain a road transport width below 3m. The widest 890mm tracks have a 3.87m2 ground contact area; 35 per cent more than a 900/60R42 tyre. Claas claims this results in 50 per cent less ground pressure than the tyre, with15 per cent greater traction capability. Performance during field turns is improved by an intelligent steering system. Below 12kph the brakes of the inner track are biased and the operator can select the degree of assistance needed in three levels. As a result, scuffing in turns is reduced for steering performance similar to a wheeled tractor. The new Axion TT models also feature height adjustment. The operator can select low, medium or high positions for the track units allowing the optimum height to be set for different implements, and for tasks such as baling the tractor can be raised to clear the swath. continued over...

After drilling the main field area the headlands remain level, even after tight turns on the loose soil. Previously twin-track tractors were used but created deep ridges during headland turns. These needed levelling by an additional cultivation, before headlands could be drilled.

Impressed from the start The track’s performance has impressed Ed from the start. “One thing I really like is its ability to follow the ground contours. Along the full track length it’s obvious that the weight is evenly applied as the tracks and rollers mould around every undulation. Its ability to put the power to the ground is excellent and even while ploughing the slip indicator didn’t move from zero. It’s just as comfortable on the road as it is in the field and at almost 50kph it doesn’t ‘nod’ as most large wheel tractors would and feels far more stable. It’s easy to forget that it’s on rubber tracks rather than wheels.” Ed and Daniel have also been pleased with the improved headland turn performance and, in particular, the lack of ridging during turns. “Previously we drilled the main field, then recultivated headlands before drilling, otherwise we would be thrown out of our seat each time when the field was sprayed later in the season,” adds Daniel. “Even turning on full lock, the ridges left by the new Axion TT are no larger than from wheeled tractors, so we save time and can get the field finished without waiting for a second tractor and operator. Obviously a twin-track crawler can turn on the spot, but for practical field work the Claas tractor turns just as tight. “I think the drive system is a key part of its success,” continues Ed. “Unlike conventional crawlers which disconnect the drive to one track

while turning, the Claas design uses electronic power distribution maintaining drive through both tracks during the turn. This helps maintain traction and reduces slip and scuffing.”

Successful design Farmers Guide visited the farm in early September when the Axion TT was working with the 8m Vaderstad drill. The previous crop was a twoyear grass ley and subsequent cultivations and exceptionally dry weather had created a cloddy seedbed on heavy ground at one end of the field and a loose, fine tilth in lighter sandy soil at the other. At both ends it was easy to see why Ed was so pleased with the new tractor’s turning performance. Despite turning back on itself for each bout there was no sign of the ruts and ridging which had proved an issue with the twintrack machines. In the cab with a target speed of 12kph the ride was excellent and noise levels were low, with the engine and transmission constantly adjusting for optimum efficiency. Typical engine speed was 1,250–1,350rpm and even when accelerating after each headland turn the slip indicator remained at zero. With the new Axion proving immediately successful, Ed is already considering further Claas products for the future, and a demonstration Xerion 5000 had been trialled the week before Farmers Guide’s visit. “Moving to CTF provides new opportunities and the big Xerion’s power means

we could pull a wider cultivator and remain in our wheelings. “Mann’s local depot is nearby and our sales representative, Thomas English looks after us well, having taken over from Paul Peachment who was also excellent. We have Claas UK’s Saxham headquarters under an hour away and tractor brand manager Steffan Kurtz has also been keen to work with us and the new Axion TT. The product range is good and the brand is a logical choice.” FG

Best innovation award for verge harvester A Lincolnshire manufacturer best known for designing and manufacturing vegetable harvesting equipment has won a prestigious business award for its diversification into a new market. Scotts Precision Manufacturing has seen record sales of its range of potato toppers this year, as well as its Evolution Separator, which removes soil, haulm and clods from harvested potatoes. But it was its latest invention – the Vergenair – that won Best New Product/Innovation in this year’s East Lindsey Business Awards. Commissioned by Lincolnshire County Council as part of a pilot project to assess the feasibility of harvesting grass clippings for use in AD plants, the Vergenair was conceived and built in just six months.

It has been designed in such a way that it can be easily connected to a conventional tractor. A large front-mounted boom mower cuts the grass, with the clippings sucked into a trailer by a powerful centrifugal fan. It works with a demountable, two-trailer system, which allows the operator to fill a second trailer, while the full one is delivering the grass clippings to the AD plant for converting into electricity. The judges felt Scotts had taken an original and innovative approach to solving a challenge, creating an affordable, versatile product. Working to a tight timescale, they turned theory into practice and developed a solution that is both of benefit to the environment and has strong commercial potential. “This project has been amazing to work on,” says Derek Scott, managing director of Scotts Precision The Vergenair was conceived and built in just six months.

Manufacturing. “It was a tough challenge with no time for mistakes, but the feeling of satisfaction when we cracked it was brilliant. The idea that Nick Cheffin and Lincolnshire County Council came up with was so simple but turning it into a reality took a lot of hard work, but we did it. The verge harvester has attracted a lot of interest with several other local authorities investigating its potential. The machine has featured on national TV, with Countryfile coming down to see us, and now, to be recognised in our home county is

simply fantastic. I need to thank all of the team at Scotts who worked so hard to bring the idea to life.” Scotts Precision Manufacturing has recently celebrated its 25th year in business. In this milestone year, the company also completed building work on a £275,000, 6,000 sq. ft expansion of its Lincolnshire factory. Building work will be completed next month and recruited four new team members, including two apprentices. This will allow Scotts to increase production output for 2020. FG

Dealer appointed to handle crop establishment products Rickerby’s East Coast sales director, Colin Potts, with the company’s 4m Claydon Hybrid T4 demonstrator.

Rickerby Limited has been appointed to sell and service the full range of Opti-Till crop establishment products manufactured by Claydon Drills. Rickerby will provide sales and aftersales support for the Opti-Till range from its eight agricultural machinery depots covering Lancashire, Cumbria, Northumberland, Durham, the Scottish Borders and part of Dumfries. Rickerby’s East Coast sales director Colin Potts (pictured) said: “Claydon products perform well and

an increasing number of farmers now appreciate the cost-saving, agronomic and environmental benefits of the Opti-Till system. “Consequently, we believe that the range offers significant potential, not only in areas where Claydon already has a strong presence but also in the west of our business area. Lancashire, for example, has a lot of very good soils and the Claydon range will fit well at the new branch which we are currently building in Ormskirk.

“Already, we have invested in a 4m Claydon Hybrid T4 drill, plus a 7.5m Straw Harrow, for our demonstration fleet. Our sales team are experienced demonstrators, have been fully trained by Claydon Drills and will be able to show these products to their full potential, across the wide range of conditions and soil types which characterise our trading area.” Claydon Drills sales manager for the UK and Ireland, Rob Dunk, added: “This is an exciting development and we are delighted to be working with such a prominent, long-established and well-respected dealer group. The appointment further supports our strategy to develop our dealer coverage throughout the UK, which will benefit both existing and prospective customers by providing more local points of contact, with the full support of the Claydon manufacturing facility and offices in Suffolk.” Opti-Till's patented direct strip seeding technique was developed by

Jeff Claydon in 2002 to increase the profitability and performance of his family’s arable farm. Since then the company has worked to perfect and expand its range. At the heart of the Opti-Till System, the Claydon Hybrid drill incorporates patented tine technology, which the company says provides exceptional versatility across all climatic conditions, soil types and crops. In addition to tractor-mounted and trailed Hybrid drills from 3–8m, the range includes 3m, 7.5m, 12.5m and 15m Straw Harrows, the 6m TerraStar light rotary cultivator, front-mounted TerraBlade inter-row hoes up to 8m wide and Cambridge rolls up to 12.3m. Claydon products are now sold all over the world by a team led by commercial director Spencer Claydon, and used by farmers in over 30 countries to establish all types of crops which can be air sown. Those using the Claydon Opti-Till System say it offers many benefits, including better timeliness, improved soil condition, reduced erosion, improved yields, much lower costs and increased profitability.

Increased variety and choice New compact loaders from Manitou were previewed at Lamma earlier this year. The range includes skid-steer and articulated versions to suit a wide variety of users. David Williams has been trying them out. Manitou enjoys an excellent reputation for its range of agricultural telescopic handlers. Latest NewAg models feature significant improvements over earlier versions including a host of userfriendly cab and control upgrades which are proving extremely popular with arable and mixed farms.

Compact and versatile Manitou purchased the American compact loader manufacturers Gehl and Mustang in 2008 and have offered both in the UK under their original brand names. But, in 2018, the Manitou branding was added and from this year the full range of products is available under its own name through the established Manitou dealer network, while supply of Gehl-branded products will continue through dedicated Gehl dealers. Along with current larger Manitou MLT telescopic handlers and MLA articulated handlers, the new compact versions give the company and its dealers access to additional markets including smaller-scale horticultural and fruit and vegetable producers, and to poultry and pig units where traditional buildings with limited working space require smaller machinery.

Articulated loaders The new articulated loader line-up includes eight models from the MLA 1-25H – suitable for working in the tightest spaces with an overall width under 36 inches, up to the 2017-introduced MLA-T 533-145V+ with 4,978kg lift capacity and 5.2m maximum lift height. Manitou quotes lift capacity for articulated

models in line with the EN474-3 standard, which equals 80 per cent of the machine’s tipping load at full articulation with the boom retracted. MLA1–MLA5 models have ball joint articulation and larger versions have a heavyduty centre bearing. All have a fixed rear axle which allows a lower overall cab height and ensures maximum stability. Steering articulation angle is 45 degrees across the range for superb manoeuvrability. Up to 10 degrees of oscillation between the front and rear sections maintains stability and ensures effective ground contact by all four wheels on uneven work areas.

Comfortable and practical As in Manitou’s MLT telescopic handler range, there are four specification levels; Essential, Classic, Premium and Elite. The top Elite specification (available on the MLA-T533 only) includes many upgrades to improve productivity and assist the user, while lower specification continued over...

The entry MLA1-25H is under 36in, wide making it ideal for operation in the smallest livestock buildings.

levels are adequate for basic handling operations. A fully enclosed cab is standard on the largest machine, and an option for MLA 3, 5, 6, 7 and 516 models. Other options include a two-post ROPS; four-post open canopy and four-post canopy with front and rear windows. Controls are well laid out and on MLA 6, 7, and 516 models, a seat-mounted Command armrest accommodates the joystick, transmission and hydraulic controls, hand throttle and a 12v power supply. Hydrostatic transmission is used across the range providing step-less speed and direction changes. The MLA1-25H has a single speed range with drive through two axle-mounted motors and MLA3, 4 and 5 models have two speeds through a single drive motor and propshaft. Three-speed transmission is available for MLA 6, 7 and 516 models providing 30kph for transport. The flagship MLA-T533 has M-Vario-Plus transmission using a pump driving two motors for extra power and efficiency. All models, except the MLA1, have a hand throttle and when it is set the foot pedal can be used for travel speed control, while the engine speed remains constant. This feature is ideal for

tasks where constant hydraulic flow is needed such as sweeping using a hydraulic-driven rotary brush. An inching pedal is also fitted, for precise lowspeed control and allows small travel movements, even with higher engine speeds, for fast hydraulic cycle times. All have mechanical differential locks apart from the base MLA1-25H which, instead, has a 45 per cent limited slip differential.

Load handling Parallel linkage provides self-levelling during raising and lowering and is ideal for pallet handling, while Z-bar linkage on larger models provides almost double the tear-out force, making it ideal for bucket work. Z-Bar linkage models also gain ‘Return to dig’, which allows a preferred position to be memorised for automatic return during each cycle. Improved over-arm visibility is also an advantage. The MLA-T516-75H combines the advantages of Z-Bar linkage with a telescopic boom, and has the bucket ram mounted inside the boom for added protection. Intelligent Hydraulics is an option for the new MLA-T533-145V+ telescopic model and includes functions such as:

IdealAccess uses a patented horizontally split screen which provides a sealed operator environment when needed, but can be folded into the roof if not required.

Quick lift – automatically combines two simultaneous movements such as raising/ lowering and extension/retraction making it ideal for stacking operations. Bucket shaker – automatically shakes the bucket vigorously to loosen sticky materials. Automatic return to load – automatically re-sets the attachment to the memorised position and angle. Regenerative hydraulics are also an option for faster boom lowering, regardless of engine speed for faster cycle times.

Skid-steer range The simple design and superb manoeuvrability of skid-steer loaders makes them attractive for a range of applications, and the line-up from Manitou includes models with radial or vertical lift, and tracks or wheels. Traditional radial lift (R models) is suitable for most applications but vertical lift (V models) incorporates a variable geometry linkage at the base of the arms, allowing the load carriage to lift through a constant vertical plane. This keeps the load closer to the front of the machine for higher lift capacity and also increases maximum lift height, so models equipped with vertical lift are often chosen for tasks such as pallet handling and stacking. There are three main variants categorised by chassis size. Manitou quotes lift capacity for rigid loaders as static tipping load, which is the most that can be lifted by the machine. A dedicated heavy-duty chassis is used for all tracked models except base versions 1650RT and 1350RT which share their frame with the 1650R and 1350R wheeled versions, and are fitted with tracks or wheels as required on the production line. All models have Manitou’s IdealTrax tensioning system. This automatically tensions the tracks each time the machine is started using hydraulic pressure, and maintains correct tension at all times without over-tensioning, which can shorten track working life. It also makes track changes easier.

Machinery Across the line-up a large front idler pulley provides great climbing ability and ensures a smooth ride. Track options include Camso HXD, 4-Season and Bridgestone HD.

Safe and comfortable All cabs feature an exceptionally high safety rating with Level 2 ROPs and FOPs standard. To use the machines, a safety restraint bar must be lowered into the working position to unlock the hydraulics. Access is good, although as with all skid-steer loaders the user has to negotiate the handling attachment, then step between the controls into the cab. The seat is comfortable, from a design chosen using feedback from hundreds of testers.

Unique design Large frame tracked loaders are available with Manitou’s exclusive IdealAccess cab entry. This provides a fully enclosed cab with a glass front screen for comfort and protection, but for access the screen folds up, into the top of the cab, leaving a clear opening. The front screen can be opened and closed with the loader arms in any position, and doesn’t increase overall cab height when fitted. Even with IdealAccess, the cab frame maintains its Level 2 FOPS certification. Heating and air conditioning are options for some models. Control options for the skid-steer line-up vary by model, but include: traditional foot pedals and hand levers; hands only by T-bar; dual hand levers or joystick. A two-speed transmission is standard on all tracked variants except the smallest 1050R and 1350RT, and it is also standard on 3300V and 4200V wheeled models and can be specified for the 1650R, 1900R, 2200R, 2600R and 2700V. Up to 19.5kph is available with the two-speed box fitted.

Power available To power auxiliary attachments an external oil supply is fitted, with flow rates varying by model.

The popular 1900R has up to 70 litres/min as standard, but a high-flow upgrade (119 litres/min) is available for power-hungry accessories. Self-levelling hydraulics are an option for all models except the 4200V, and maintain a constant bucket angle during lifting to avoid load spillage. Hydraglide boom suspension is standard on models with joystick controls, and is selectable to suit the user and operation. All lift rams are induction hardened chrome plated, which helps protect against damage and corrosion. A rear counterweight is available to increase lift capacity for most models.

Test drive Manitou’s demonstration day included plenty of opportunity to try the range, stacking pallets and handling loose stone. Similar skid-steer models, with the full range of control options, allowed the benefits of each to be assessed. Having the opportunity to compare the controls side-by-side was useful, and for anyone considering investing in a new skid-steer handler a similar experience is recommended. There is a

tendency to stick with controls which are familiar but, during the few hours spent driving the machines, it took little time to learn the techniques required for each, especially under the expert guidance of Manitou’s demonstration team. The twin T-bar levers operate the transmission and hydraulic functions and seemed awkward at first, but learning to operate them by finger rather than by twisting the wrist made them much easier to use. Manitou emphasised that its Pilot Joystick controls are fully hydraulic rather than electricactivated hydraulics, to provide better feedback and control. During the test drive, all the controls were progressive and allowed accurate adjustment of the attachment and load. Hydraulic cycle times were good, even with the engine at lower revs, and operation was progressive and easy to control through all four configurations tested. In America the tracked skid-steer loader market dominates, but in the UK far more wheeled models are sold. A test-track with ramps demonstrated the improved comfort available from the rubber belts, and the increased climbing ability and traction when working on a heap of aggregate. Skid-steer loader cabs tend to offer basic levels of comfort compared to other loader types, but Manitou’s line-up had good access for operators, adequate space and well-designed positive controls. The demonstration 2150RT with its fully enclosed cab and IdealAccess front screen proved as comfortable as many tractors and with air conditioning and a heater it would be suitable for extended all-year-round use. Noise levels for all models were reasonable and visibility was good to the front and sides in particular. Selecting between high and low gear ranges just required a button press and the change was carried out smoothly, providing power for handling and higher travel speeds for movement between work areas.

Improved cabs

The 2150RT tracked skid-steer loader is the second-largest model in the range, powered by a 72hp Yanmar engine. It can lift 975kg to 3.2m and the test machine was equipped with Manitou’s exclusive IdealAccess front screen.

Operating the articulated loaders after the skidsteer models emphasised advantages including better comfort in the larger cabs and superior visibility. Cab entry and exit was also easier with better steps and easier access points. Manoeuvrability was very good with 45 degrees turning angle available, but couldn’t continued over...

Verdict

compete with the skid-steers which turn on the spot. However, working for long periods the articulated machines are less tiring with their gentler operating characteristics. Noise levels were low, even on open-frame versions. For tasks such as pallet stacking, articulated machines offer advantages including improved vision to the forks and load, and the ability to ‘sideshift’ small amounts just by adjusting the steering angle a few degrees.

Manitou is well equipped to make rapid gains in its market share of smaller loaders and handlers with the addition of its latest models. Since re-introducing a larger articulated model last year, the brand has proved it can offer impressive alternatives to the wide range of telescopic handlers for which it is best known. With an excellent dealer network and a name respected by farms of all types and sizes, the new compact models should be on every farm’s shortlist. FG

Articulated loaders offer advantages for pallet handling including precise side movement just by operating the steering. This MLA3-35H is powered by a 35hp Yanmar engine, is rated at 1,670kg and has a maximum lift height of 2.65m.

The new compact articulated handler range is topped by the MLA-T516-75H which combines the benefits of an articulated chassis, Z-Bar linkage and a telescopic boom.

Chemical-free precision weed control A new mechanical weed control option has been added to Opico’s line-up, and is expected to appeal to a wide variety of users. David Williams was at the press launch. Weed removal by hoeing was common practice until selective herbicides became available, but a reduced chemical armoury and increased chemical resistance, particularly in grass weeds such as black-grass, has renewed interest in the technique. Also creating additional demand for mechanical weed control are major buyers such as supermarkets, keen to supply food which has had less chemical exposure. For organic food production, which relies on mechanical and cultural weed control, hoeing remains essential to growing clean crops. Mechanical hoeing provides many advantages over chemicals, but a disadvantage for large-scale farms has been the slower work rates needed to guide hoe bodies within just a few millimetres of growing crops. But, increased use of precision guidance and automatic steering has meant tractors can be relied upon to maintain an accurate track, so that mounted implements travel precisely. This has increased travel speeds, boosting work rates and increasing acceptability. Opico offers a wide range of machinery through an excellent UK dealer network and adding a range of mechanical hoes to complement its current Comb Harrows will be popular with distributors and customers. Its new inter-row cultivators are manufactured by Austrian specialist Hatzenbichler, which has supplied harrows to Opico since 1994. “The build quality is excellent,” explained Opico managing director, James Woolway. “There are

“UK demand for Comb Harrows is mainly for organic farms,” explained James, “but we also supply them to some conventionally run farms and vegetable producers, particularly in recent years as supermarkets specify crops produced with fewer chemicals. We have seen growing interest in inter-row cultivation from all these sectors recently. “We are also experiencing demand for mechanical weeding and inter-row crop establishment from maize growers, particularly where post-harvest soil run-off is an issue. This is certainly a market where interest will increase.” James commented that potatoes are also a potential market for the technology due to the expectation that buyers will demand continued over...

several unique design features offering significant advantages for users.” The Hatzenbichler family has farmed since the 1930s, and commenced implement manufacturing in 1952 when it produced its first mechanical weeder in the form of the Comb Harrow – the first of its type to enter production, and the predecessor to more than 7,000 units sold by Opico. A few years later it added inter-row cultivators to its range. The family switched to organic crop production on their farm in 1995 and the experience gained in finding solutions for their own crops contributes to product development.

reduced chemical exposure in future, and he believes conventional arable crops will come under tighter scrutiny too, in terms of their environmental footprint.

Will it work? Successful mechanical weed control depends on multiple factors, explained James, adding that it’s best to cultivate soil prior to crop establishment. Incorporating the technique into plough-based or mintill cultivation systems isn’t an issue, but it cannot be used in 100 per cent no-till establishment regimes unless crop residues are removed and the soil is easily worked. Row widths have to be considered for inter-row cultivations and, while it is possible to mechanically weed between 12.5cm rows this might not allow the best weed control, depending on the crop and variety, if plants meet across the rows during the season. Wider row widths similar to those used in organic systems may become more popular as the inter-row technique is adopted on conventional farms. Weed emergence periods have to be considered in relation to weather conditions and crop development. While inter-row cultivators tend to be used later in the growing season, comb weeders are used prior to establishment and through earlier stages of crop development. Stale seedbed combing is often used to remove weeds prior to drilling in the same way cultivation and chemicals are used. When weeding in the crop, multiple high speed passes of a comb harrow are used to control secondary weed growth resulting from seed germination encouraged by the first weeding pass. The critical weed-free period for each crop – during which weed development could reduce yields – also needs consideration to make sure cultivation can provide control when needed. James suggested that a hybrid system is attractive, combining mechanical with chemical weed control, offering advantages including reduced chemical reliance and lower production costs. Opico is promoting both its Comb Harrow and inter-row cultivators as potential solutions for arable weed control. Unlike the inter-row cultivators which cultivate aggressively between crop rows, the Comb Harrow is indiscriminate – raking across its full working width. Three gauges of rake steel

are available, applying varying flexibility and working pressure. The thinnest 6mm is selected for vegetables and salad crops; 7mm is usually chosen for broad acre arable crops and 8mm, for the most aggressive raking, is used on grassland. The Hatzenbichler harrow has 30mm tine spacing and the raking action and sprung steel tines create the oscillation necessary to cover the entire surface. A suitable tine angle is essential for optimum weed removal without crop damage, and Hatzenbichler comb harrows are supplied with manual or hydraulic rake angle adjustment in 10 stages. James stressed that this variation of pressure is needed, and to obtain best results it will typically be adjusted several times per day as the soil dries out or to suit different soil types. Rakes are mounted in working sections which move and twist for accurate contour following. The main frame, along which the sections are mounted, is also capable of flexing to accommodate undulating field surfaces. “The combing technique relies on crop roots being stronger than the weeds to withstand the raking action,” explained James. “As soon as the weed root is as big as the crop roots it’s too late, so subsequent passes to tackle new weed growth need to be while weeds are small. The Comb Harrow leaves a level surface and breaks up any capping, improving water infiltration and root zone air interchange. The raking action also stimulates tillering and releases surface nitrogen, so rather than damaging the crop, opportunities for higher yields are increased.” Most Comb Harrows supplied by Opico are fitted with mounted seed/fertiliser applicators which make them very versatile. Demand for re-seeding grassland continues, but for arable farms the opportunity to cheaply establish cover crops is attractive.

systems in the UK. Up to eight cameras can be mounted on each machine and the system combines the information provided and makes judgements regarding the optimum strategy, which is especially useful for complex headlands or where there are gaps in the crop. The cameras not only register the row position, but also calculate travel speed, so separate speed monitoring isn’t required. A minimum of two cameras are recommended, and the user can select which camera’s information should be used in advance, such as when approaching diagonal headlands. Tillet & Hague’s software also allows for the addition of spot spraying technology on the cultivator. The hoes mount on a guidance headstock from which the relative working position is varied by a double-acting, double-rod hydraulic cylinder. A potentiometer monitors movement to ensure precise positioning. Up to 250mm each side of centre is available, allowing accurate compensation for deviations caused by sideslopes, as well as errors due to drilling off-centre to the tramlines. Moving the hoes sideways to follow plant rows creates powerful lateral forces. This is particularly the case with wider working widths, or when the tines are working deep. The tubular mounting frame is manufactured with a bespoke profile used by Hatzenbichler for more than 30 years. Each parallelogram unit clamps to the tube using a simple but positive mounting system which prevents unwanted movement, but allows easy adjustment of the mounting position for different row configurations. If side forces exceed grip from the tractor’s rear wheels, then the tractor could be moved sideways leaving the hoe position unchanged and resulting in crop damage. To prevent this, Opico’s hoe has a pair of large diameter flanged steel wheels, which anchor the guidance headstock in line behind the tractor wheels for perfect row following.

Inter-row cultivators The new inter-row cultivators accurately till between rows of growing crops to cut off the weeds just below the surface. They are fully adjustable and can be configured for any row width or combination of row widths. The lineup includes models from 2.5–18m working width to cultivate up to 72 rows in one pass. Front- or rear-mounted versions are available, along with trailed semi-mounted models, and although historically demand was for frontmounting for easier monitoring from the tractor seat, now rear-mounted are more popular as auto-steer systems require less operator input. Extra precision is also available through integral camera-controlled steering systems, mounted on the cultivator itself. For automatic row following, Opico has teamed up with camera manufacturer Tillet & Hague, which develops and manufactures Opico Hatzenbichler mechanical weeding specialist Glenn Bootman is pictured demonstrating the ease of depth adjustment.

Machinery Three sizes of mounting carriage are available to suit different working widths. The version pictured includes hydraulic steering by double-ended ram, and positioning is monitored by a potentiometer directly below the ram.

Optimum results The hoe carriers’ parallelogram mounting frames maintain pre-set working angles and pressure, while allowing accurate ground contour following. Different numbers of tines are fitted to the carriers, depending on row widths and crop types. For example; in cereals three rows are hoed per carrier with a minimum row spacing of 12.5cm. All models fold for transport to under 3m and folded height is below 4m. Vibro-tines with Duck’s foot shares penetrate hard dry ground, cutting weeds off below the surface without excessive soil movement. Section control is an option expected to appeal to UK users. The Muller system provides automatic control of up to 13 sections which lift hydraulically as they reach the headland rows. This offers particular advantages for irregular fields where diagonal joints feature between

the main field and headland. The biggest benefits are for wider working widths, where operation without section control would mean either missing triangular areas at the beginning or end of each bout, or destruction of some of the crop. Tine options include S-tines or Vibro-tines fitted with either Duck’s foot or A-shares and, with endless adjustment available, almost any crops with adequate space between the rows can be tackled. Adding a mounted applicator provides opportunities to apply nutrients precisely, or to under-sow or strip-seed additional crops through coulters or by broadcasting. “This is particularly beneficial where wide 75cm maize rows are used, as targeted application of fertiliser to the plant base avoids waste and reduces risk of run-off,” added James. Further options include Kress finger weeders consisting of plastic-spoked discs operating at an inclined angle below plant foliage, and crop protection discs to reduce soil throw onto young plants.

Combined solution Adding inter-row cultivators to Opico’s product offering is likely to prove a good move by the importer. The long-established relationship with Hatzenbichler means those investing in the products are assured of great back-up, including expert advice as to the best solution for their needs. Combining the benefits of a comb harrow and an inter-row cultivator makes sense, offering solutions for growing crops throughout the season, and additional options such as precision fertiliser placement and inter-row seeding adds possibilities for the future. Prices for a 6m, 12-row inter-row cultivator suitable for sugar beet start at £19,851, and a 6m, eight-row version set up for maize is £21,458. A guidance headstock with a quick-hitching feature adds £28,405, and a seeder and platform adds a further £8,674. FG

New products unveiled for 2020 Valtra unveiled two new products at Agritechnica. The first is a range of vineyard and orchard tractors, with the F Series comprising four models ranging in output from 75 to 10hp. The base model is approximately 1.5m wide and the narrow model just 1.3m wide. Standard equipment includes a heated and air-conditioned cab, and the wider model is also available with an open cab and rollover protection structure (ROPS). The height of the open cab model when ROPS is not deployed is just 1.4m, making it ideally suited

for covered and pergola farming techniques among others. The F Series comes with a 24-speed transmission with either a mechanical or hydraulic forwardreverse shuttle and powershift. The four-cylinder 3.4-litre common rail engine complies with Stage 3 B emissions regulations for narrow tractors. The F Series will be available from Valtra dealers in early 2020. The second reveal at the show was the final design of the Heads Up Display (HUD) SmartGlass. Positioned in the centre of the tractor’s front windscreen, Valtra SmartGlass is based on transparent display technology, laminated between two glass surfaces. This makes the solution very robust and suitable for demanding operation conditions of agricultural machinery. Valtra first presented SmartGlass at Agritechnica 2017. “After the first introduction of the concept we went into more extensive testing. Customer feedback revealed that the concept was excellent, but The Valtra F Series tractor is ideal for intensive cultivation of high-value specialty plants.

SmartGlass allows the operator to see vital information about the tractor without looking away from the work in hand.

that the layout of the HUD needed improving,” comments Valtra product manager Sam Hardy. “This is why we decided to pause rollout and took the time to redesign the segments in the display to cover a larger area and to improve visibility even in bright conditions.” SmartGlass allows the operator to see vital information about the tractor without needing to look away from the work at hand. With a strong focus on front loader work, SmartGlass can display

various information from the factory-fitted Valtra loader such as tipping angle or load weight; or basic tractor information such as gear, engine rpm or driving speed. The operator is able to choose what is visible on the HUD via the SmartTouch 9in touchscreen terminal. Valtra SmartGlass is available as an option provided via the Unlimited studio. Valtra will soon release 20 pilot units to selected customers, and serial production is planned for later in 2020. FG

Manufacturer expands in Czech Republic US-based manufacturer Bobcat, which is part of the Doosan Group, will open its European headquarters in Dobříš, in the Czech Republic. The newly erected building at the Dobříš campus complements the production plant and extensive training and innovation centre, where Bobcat machines are created for Europe and the rest of the world. Worth €10 million (£8.6m), the three-storey building covers a surface area of 1,561m2 and will offer more than 3,370m2 of office space for 200 employees, as well as more than 7,000m2 of green space around the building. The parking facilities include charging stations for electric vehicles. This year alone, Doosan Bobcat’s investments in Dobříš will reach €20 million (£17.2m). In 2018, the company’s revenue for the EMEA region amounted to €765 million (£658m), with the Dobříš factory producing a record 17,206 machines. This year, the company plans to increase production by 20 per cent, breaking through the barrier of 20,000 machines in a year for the first time. Bobcat’s history dates back 60 years and it has been operating in the Czech Republic since 2001. A major

development came in 2007, with the construction of the production plant for loaders and mini-excavators and the takeover by the global Doosan Group. The company says the development of the Dobříš campus is symbolically crowned by the opening of its EMEA headquarters, which moved from Waterloo, Belgium. Gustavo Otero, president of Doosan Bobcat EMEA, comments: “With the opening of the new headquarters in Dobříš, we are completing an investment which – thanks to the concentration of development, production and management of the company in one place – is of socio-economic importance for the whole region and exceptional within our industry. “During Doosan Bobcat’s operations in the Czech Republic, we have invested approximately €120 million (£103m), increased production five-fold, and more than tripled the number of employees. In the future, we expect a further recruitment of blue-collar professionals and expert positions in development.” FG

The new €10 million building in Dobříš provides more than 3,370m2 of office space for 200 employees.

Bobcat’s EMEA headquarters complement its production plant and training and innovation centre.

Innovative products scoop three awards Three new products by Amazone have each received silver innovation awards at this year’s Agritechnica. Amazone’s parent company, Amazonen-Werke, collected the first medal for EasyMix, which simplifies the process of evaluation and adjustment when spreading blended fertilisers. It is one of the components of the new Amazone mySpreader app. Mixing different fertilisers together saves on the number of applications and reduces operating

costs, but applying blended fertilisers accurately is challenging due to the wider working widths, as different fertilisers have different trajectories. EasyMix provides a tool for checking the suitability of mixing different constituents in the blend and finding the best compromise for the setting – knowing the spreading nature of the different fertiliser in the mix.

The second award for Amazone went to its AmaSelect Row, which enables all sprayers equipped with AmaSelect nozzle bodies to switch from whole-area application to row-based band spraying, all from the tractor seat. It allows growers to reduce consumption of plant protection agents by up to 65 per cent. The combination of the AmaSelect nozzle body with the active ContourControl boom guidance system fully maximises the advantages of the system. Finally, the third silver medal was awarded to the company in conjunction with eight other partners for the Nevonex system. Amazone developed the AmaSense Weather feature – a sensor that allows the company’s crop protection sprayers to recognise the current temperature and air humidity. Its integration into the Nevonex system makes it possible AmaSelect Row allows sprayers to switch from whole-area application to row-based band spraying from the tractor seat.

The AmaSense Weather feature allows crop protection sprayers to recognise the current temperature and air humidity.

to provide sensor data to the farmer, agronomist or an external expert system, so that users can respond immediately when critical thresholds are reached during application. The plant protection treatment can also be adapted to part-areas with different microclimates, which further increases the efficacy of the plant protection agents applied. FG

How to avoid costly breakdowns in the field Machinery downtime can be a costly inconvenience, particularly during busy periods on the farm. With improper lubrication being a major cause of unreliability, lubricant manufacturer and equipment experts, The Witham Group, provide top tips on how to prevent breakdowns. Using the wrong lubricant, or a low-quality product, is a major factor in causing mechanical wear and premature equipment failure. It is important to always choose a lubricant that meets the appropriate quality standard specified by either the OEM or one of the industry bodies, such as ACEA or API. Older equipment has very different requirements to modern applications, including compliance with the latest emissions standards. A trusted oil manufacturer uses OEM-approved formulations, helping to ensure that warranty conditions are met and servicing costs are minimised. Checking you have enough oil in the engine is another key factor. Even if the correct amount of lubricant was added during an oil change, the oil may be unduly consumed due to evaporation, burning caused by

worn piston rings, and leaks through the seals or oil plug. Follow proper oil change intervals and check the oil periodically. Typically, the older the equipment, the more oil it will use. Conversely, too much oil in the system can cause catastrophic failure – oil cannot be compressed so components are in danger of colliding with essentially a solid mass. Oil is to an engine what blood is to the human body. If it’s too thick it can cause the engine’s oil system to clog (think heart attack); too thin and you risk uncontrolled wear. So, selecting and maintaining the consistency (viscosity) is key. When oil viscosity is too low or high, it may be detected as a loss of pressure in the oil supply to the engine. Having a free lubricant survey of your machinery fleet will enable you to have an easy reference to the

recommended specs for engine oil, greases, hydraulic and brake fluid, and antifreeze and coolants. It’s also important to conduct regular machinery maintenance checks to spot any issues before a breakdown. Check engine oil, transmission fluid and grease points regularly, especially during periods of heavy usage. You should also check for wear to gearboxes, chains and

belts, and replace fuel filters regularly. Finally, don’t ignore warning signals. They often highlight issues that need to be addressed, such as low hydraulic pressure, high engine temperature or a shaft that isn’t turning. To keep your machinery turning throughout the year, simple maintenance and help from a reputable oil provider can make a real financial difference. FG

Suffolk sprayer maker teams up with Ukranian firm

Why sraw management doesn't have to be hard work? Before thinking about moving soil, it is essential to take a good look behind the combine to understand what needs to be done in terms of cultivation – particularly in a dry season – to avoid unnecessary costs, according to Remac UK’s Howard Reeves. “Covering and moving any weed seed that is on the surface into dry ground means it will not chit quickly,” Howard explains. “In most years, there is a wonderful opportunity lost to get a very orderly stubble clean-up, by delaying any unnecessary cultivation until you have inspected the stubble to see if it has all been chopped well, and whether there are any green

patches that need spot spraying out. It is good practice to keep all the residue as near as possible to the surface by simply applying a light roller or using a topper.” He adds: “The warmth of the soil and the damp nights are ideal for creating the perfect chit. This is cheaper and more effective in the long run compared with incorporating. Soil structure is important, as good drainage encourages crop competition and, at the same time, this discourages black-grass as it thrives in marshy conditions.” The company has a range of RemacSystem soil looseners (1.5, 3, 4.8 and 6mt), which will be available from 2020. FG

Sprayer specialist Landquip is set to manufacture cultivation equipment from Ukrainian firm Lozova at its factory in Suffolk.

How can agriculture become more energy efficient?

It’s a topic that’s received plenty of newspaper column inches of late and with official targets set, climate change won’t be ignored any longer.

The Committee on Climate Change (CCC) has reported that ’the share of agriculture in overall emissions reached a high of 10 per cent in 2015’. The National Farmers’ Union (NFU) is aiming to reach ’net zero greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions across the whole of agriculture in England and Wales by 2040.’ So how can the sector reduce its emissions, help the UK achieve its decarbonisation goals, and seize the associated opportunities?

NFU to the fore The NFU’s ‘Achieving net zero – Farming’s 2040 goal’ report acknowledges that ’emissions from UK farms presently amount to 45.6 million tonnes of carbon dioxide (CO2) equivalent a year.’ This is about ’one tenth of UK GHG emissions… [and] only 10 per cent of this is CO2. Around 40 per cent is nitrous oxide (N2O) and 50% is methane (CH4)’.

Efficiency measures may include using controlled release fertilisers. The report suggests that improving productive efficiency and land management can help the sector achieve its net zero goal. However, this doesn’t imply less production; instead, the NFU wants farmers to use fewer inputs but in smarter ways, to produce the same quantity of food as currently. Efficiency measures may include using controlled release fertilisers, changing animal feed additives, choosing livestock that emit less methane and/or improving animal health, and adopting new technologies. The NFU

also advocates ’bigger hedgerows, more woodland, and especially more carbon-rich soil’, plus increased land-based renewables and bioenergy with carbon capture and storage (BECCS). This is the process of producing energy from organic matter while capturing and storing the carbon produced.

Energy industry insights Energy companies can help agriculture achieve its net zero ambitions in a number of ways: • DSR schemes reward businesses for reducing their electricity usage when National Grid faces peak demand. The rewards vary depending on the type, scale and speed of response required by your scheme. The more power you can commit to using (or stop using) when asked, and the quicker you can respond, the higher your payments will be. Yeo Valley, a Haven Power customer, is using the supplier’s tailored reports and analytics to help it implement DSR and reduce costs over each winter. • If you generate your own renewable electricity, you should consider power purchase agreements (PPAs). These energybuying arrangements allow you to sell your renewable energy through your electricity supplier and protect you from fluctuating energy prices. PPAs also let you offset your import costs (the cost of buying energy) by selling what you produce back to the grid. The addition of battery storage creates even more flexibility, as you’re able to retain any excess power you’ve generated for later use or export to the grid. • Haven Power’s parent company, Drax, is working with a farm in Northamptonshire to trial a battery storage solution that will help

the business maximise its PPA revenues. The farm will store any excess electricity generated by its solar panels and sell the power when demand on the grid – and the price – is high. Smart meter data can help your supplier (and you) to better understand your energy usage. Such insights can then lead to changes in behaviour and operations that mean you pay less. For example, a horticultural company with a smart meter connected to a network of remote sensors may see that ambient temperatures inside its greenhouses are rising. With analogue technology, the thermostat would reach a critically high level before calling on more energy to drive the air conditioning until the room cooled. With digital technology, the company can analyse the temperature data in real-time and predict when it needs to act – earlier than in the non-digital scenario. Through the Industrial Internet of Things (IIOT), the firm’s system would automatically open cooling vents that use almost no energy and have negligible running costs. Smart meters can help you maximise the benefits of DSR by providing consumption data for specific buildings or areas. This lets you identify where and when you’re consuming the most electricity, so you can try to reduce your usage and reap both the costsaving and revenue-enhancing advantages.

What’s next? Haven Power supplies renewable power to a regional agricultural buying group, Yeo Valley and many other commercial customers. The business electricity specialist also helps businesses to optimise energy performance and look at generating (and storing) their own power. FG December 2019 www.farmersguide.co.uk 77

Muck & Slurry One of the Pro series models in the Powerspread range from Shelbourne Reynolds.

Power on the land Muck and slurry handling is the topic for this month’s Power on the Land, brought to you as always by Mike Williams. With constant innovation and development in manure and slurry handling equipment, it can be hard to keep up. Here are just a few examples, each offering specialist designs and tech to make spreading more effective and efficient.

New UK distribution agreement Zunhammer is one of Germany’s leading machinery ranges for handling slurry and liquids including digestate, and the product range is now available in the UK following a distribution agreement with Cambridgeshire-based Agrifac. The equipment list includes a comprehensive

range of tankers with a choice of single-, doubleand triple-axles and with tank capacities ranging from 6,000 to 30,000 litres. Zunhammer also offers a range of incorporation equipment including disc type injectors and cultivators, plus dribble bars with working widths from 9–36m and trailing shoe systems up to 27m wide. Tankers can be Isobus-linked for job recording, and the options include the VAN (Variable Application of Nutrients) equipment that can assess the nutrient level in each load and can also adjust the spread rate in order to apply the target level of crop nutrients.

Hands-on for 20 years Wox Agri Services has been running a contracting business featuring slurry application for more than 20 years, and this has provided the handson experience which has enabled it to develop the range of equipment it makes. Its specialist product list includes the Typhoon trailed hose reeler mounted on braked wheels, with capacity for up to 3,000m of 6in pipe. It is equipped with a guide to load the pipe evenly across the width of the reel. Wox also offers the Tempest reeler designed for front or rear mounting, available in widths from 1.8–2.5m to offer maximum capacity for 1,200m of 6in pipe, and with a fully integrated drive mechanism to utilise the full carrying capacity. The Viper hose handler is also available for front or rear mounting, designed to simplify pipe transfer around the field with less risk of crop damage compared with a drag hose, while also reducing the risk of stress on the pipe and couplings. The Wox range also includes the Hose Pinch, which is a simple yet important gripping device that blocks slurry movement while work is carried out on the pipe or couplings. In addition, the product list also features the Invader series pumping sets, which are based on Cornell series pump units, integrated with a hydraulically powered compressor and an electronically actuated clutch.

The Zunhammer range of slurry tankers and application equipment is now available from Agrifac.

Muck & Slurry ...from previous page

Side discharge spreading An important advantage of spreaders with a side impeller distribution mechanism is their ability to handle solids or liquids and also a mixture of the two, and this is the system Shelbourne Reynolds uses on their Powerspread series. There are six models in the range, providing load capacities from 1,600–3,200 gallons and they all have a side discharge spreading action using a hydraulically-powered overshot rotor, plus a vertically opening door to provide up to 20m spreading width. The two smallest models are in the Dairy series, with the medium and large capacity models forming the Pro series with additional features including a hydraulicallyoperated anti-bridging arm plus a reversible feed auger. Minimum power requirements start at 85hp for the smallest Dairy series model and the recommendation for the range-topping 3,200-gallon Plus series spreader is 130hp plus.

Bespoke designs made to order Slurry tankers are the Dezwaef speciality, and, as well as offering standard models, their flexible manufacturing allows design and specification changes, with all tankers being built to order. The tankers are made in Belgium and single-, double- and triple-axle models are available with tank capacities up to 26,000 litres. All tankers

the harvester to the silage clamp, or working as chaser units for sugar beet harvesting. Vervaet’s UK distributor, J Riley Beet Harvesters (UK) Ltd, offers three- and five-wheel models, both equipped with a 12.9-litre DAF engine producing 510hp, with the power delivered through an infinitely variable, two-speed transmission providing 40kph maximum transport speed. Hydro Trikes are available with a comprehensive choice of tyre options and the equipment list includes on-the-move tyre inflation, allowing the pressure to be adjusted when changing between on-road and in-field operation.

have a galvanised finish, the drawbars are hydraulically suspended, and the air suspension axle option is specified by most of the doubleand triple-axle tanker customers. The Dezwaef range also features application equipment for slurry including dribble bars, cultivator type units up to 6.5m wide for arable injection and there are trailing shoe applicators with 7 and 8m working widths. Dezwaef equipment has been available in the UK since 2015, and the distributor is Wiltshire-based HVM Agri.

Largest slurry tanker range Manure and slurry spreaders are a Joskin company speciality, and they offer a comprehensive range of models and specifications. Their slurry tanker range is said to be the biggest available, with nine different series, single-, double- and triple-axle models, tank capacities from 2,500–28,000 litres plus a choice of pump options. Specifications include drawbar suspension, and a four-point linkage can be added to carry a range of application attachments from the Joskin range and from Vogelsang, including equipment for slurry injection into pasture and arable land. Rear delivery manure spreaders are available with either vertical or horizontal beaters, one, two or three axles and with load capacities ranging from 8–26t. The entry level spreaders are the single-axle Siroko series with 8–13t capacity, a galvanised finish and with vertical beaters. The range topping FertiSpace 2 spreaders can be supplied with either vertical or horizontal beaters, and twin or triple-axle versions are available with load capacities in the 14 –26t range.

The new Blackbird trailing shoe linkage applicators from Vogelsang are available with up to 24m working width.

Precise application New additions to the Vogelsang range of slurry and digestate handling equipment include the Blackbird trailing shoe linkage with outlets designed to provide more precise application to avoid the risk of crop contamination. A special feature of the Blackbird is the new skid unit designed to part the crop plants more effectively, while also achieving better soil penetration to produce the narrow furrows where the liquid is deposited. The specification also includes an updated version of Vogelsang’s ExtraCut ECQ precision distributor unit. The first models in the Blackbird range were introduced in June this year with 12 and 15m working widths, and a 24m version was added to the range in November. FG

Versatility is key

The Dezwaef machinery range includes triple-axle tankers with up to 26,000-litre capacities.

One of the features of the Hydro Trike tractor units built in Holland by Vervaet is versatility. Most are used with a demountable manure spreader body with up to 20t capacity or to carry a tank holding up to 19,000 litres of slurry or digestate plus application equipment, but they can also work with sprayers and combi drills and are used for transporting crop material from

Muck & Slurry

The benefits to treating slurry Slurry wheel offers solution to tightening regulations On the back of the diffuse pollution regulations coming into force last year, the agricultural sector is under increasing pressure to look at its ammonia emissions. Together with existing requirements to target fertiliser application into a constricted window of crop demand, this is resulting in a dramatic increase in the demand for high capacity accurate machines, according to Agri Industry Solutions (AIS). The award-winning Veenhuis Rotomax slurry reel, in combination with Nutri-flow realtime nutrient monitoring, offers a solution to the growing challenges of tighter regulation, while maximising the benefit of slurries, AIS says. Getting the maximum value possible from the material is becoming an important part of

the AD and livestock model, the company explains, adding that it is expecting to see a busy production line, with more machines in the field next year. Veenhuis’s injector range, whether on the Rotomax or umbilical/tanker systems, offers a low emission delivery of slurry to the point of plant uptake, improving efficiency dramatically, AIS explains. The company attended Agritechnica in November to support the SV Group, which is the newly formed amalgamation of Shuitemaker and Veenhuis. The merger has seen the production capacity of Veenhuis increase, together with improved aftersales support, a requirement foreseen to assist with the emerging UK market. FG

Biocell Agri Ltd director, Alec Ross, explains why treating slurry could benefit farmers.

Q&A

Q. Why go to the expense of treating slurry? A. It isn’t actually all that expensive. For a typical farmer with one million gallons of slurry, they’d be able to treat it all with Slurrycell for much less than you’d think.

is a lot more even, your potash and phosphate levels are a lot more consistent as well – which makes balancing the nutrient requirements of your fields easier. Q. What other benefits are there? A. The big one for me is the reduction in diesel costs that results from significantly reduced mixing times. That in itself pays for the cost of treatment. Also, the bugs help convert ammonia to NH3 – so it doesn’t smell as bad and you get less grass scorch. And, because the bugs eat fibre, there’s less ‘matting’ on swards. Plus we find it results in a much easier slurry to work with. Once stirred, it stays stirred with fewer blockages. It’s significant, I think, that slurry contractors with umbilical systems are among our strongest champions. FG

Q. When’s the best time to treat slurry? A. There are two golden rules. Treat early and treat to capacity. In other words, if you’ve a couple of feet of slurry in a tank/shed/ lagoon, treat the slurry before cows come in for the winter, giving it a stir as you do so. This helps to distribute the bugs throughout the area and gets them going. Q. Does treating reduce the need to purchase nitrogen? A. It does. I’m not going to make any wild claims, but what I do know is that you’ll have a bit more nitrogen and, because the slurry

Time saving hose reelers Slurry and digestate specialist Tramspread has developed a range of reelers that can save time when umbilical spreading. and a commitment to quality.” In addition to tractor-mounted reelers, Tramspread also manufactures larger trailed reelers. The segmented types are available to carry 1,600m of 6in hose and 2,000m of 4 or 5in hose. The random wrap version, with hydraulic pivoting drawbar, can hold either 2,000m of 6in, 2400m of 5in or 2,800m of 4in hose. Again, these reelers are twin hydraulic drive, offering no shortage of power. The trailed reelers are hydraulically operated from both tractor and reeler which offers greater control when recovering and laying out. Edwin added: “Our reelers are fast and reliable. If farmers are using umbilical, then good quality reelers are an essential tool. Ours are tested to the limit by our contracting division so we know they perform.” FG

Through the use of a twin hydraulic drive, the Tramspread random wrap reeler has ample power to quickly reel in or out up to 1,000m of 4 or 5in hose or 800m of 6in hose. The galvanised spools, or bobbins, can be easily and quickly removed from the robust carrying frame by removing two securing pins to lower the reel to the ground. The random wrap reeler has been developed to be gear driven. This offers more power and gives better torque when reeling in. It also means the reeler suffers less wear, is faster and more reliable, than chain alternatives. Explaining the benefits of the reelers, Edwin Baker (right) from Tramspread said: “These reelers are built from heavy duty steel and are a reliable piece of kit in the field. Reelers are one of our best-selling products and each one is made with attention to detail

The Tramspread random wrap, tractor-mounted reeler offers robust build quality and a powerful twin hydraulic drive capable of reeling up to 1,000m of hose.

Innovations in slurry handling

Zunhammer has introduced a direct measuring system as an analysis tool, among other innovative features. German manufacturer Zunhammer produces a wide range of slurry handling equipment, with its tankers in their basic configuration consisting of a tank, chassis, frame and rotary lobe pump, along with slurry agitation. The heart-shaped tank, combined with the agitation pattern, prevents solids from being deposited in the tank. Unlike vacuum tanks, Zunhammer tankers

do not rely on vacuum pressure within the tank to fill or empty. The company says its SKE Series has an exceptionally low weight, low centre of gravity and a high degree of stability. The frame is equipped with the innovative ECO System – slurry lines that run through the frame, allowing slurry to flow more efficiently. At the same time, the large cross-section

of the frame provides a lower counter-pressure than standard pressure lines, which saves energy on the drive side and reduces wear on the pump. Tankers are fitted with the Glide-fix trailing shoe to provide optimal spreading quality to the crop. Available in widths of 12, 15 and 18m, the large operating width ensures high hourly output, providing throughput of up to 12,000 litres/min. Zunhammer has also introduced Van-Control 2.0, a direct measuring system for slurry analysis, making

it possible to analyse slurry or liquid digestate during filling. The system allows the use of these natural fertilisers with nearly the same precision as artificial fertilisers. Users can also set the desired nitrogen application rate and leave the tanker to determine the required m3/ha. Variable rate application is possible by linking the Van-Control system to soil maps. Optimal metering based on quantity of nutrients offers substantial savings on fertiliser costs, the company adds. FG

"If we spread a field with our Zunhammer, it would be a job to know whether there had been a sprayer or that tanker on the field" Introducing the Zunhammer SKE Series: exceptionally low weight, low centre of gravity and high degree of stability.

Wilton Agricultural, an effluentspreading specialist covering South Canterbury and North Otago in New Zealand, took delivery of Wox Agri Services’ high performance drag hose equipment earlier this year, aiming to increase the efficiency of their operation. Following a visit to the UK in July 2018, Brodie Wilton (right) of Wilton Agricultural made the bold decision to invest in a Wox Invader pump system. Completing the purchase were two 1,000m Wox Tempest hose reelers with 6in and 5in pipe and shug fittings, and a 12m Vogelsang Compax dribble bar. Fast forward to January 2019 and the equipment landed in New Zealand. After 800 hours of operation, during a site visit to

update the telemetry and complete a first service, Geoffrey Wox from Wox Agri Services gained some valuable insights into the value the machinery was adding to Brodie Wilton’s operation. Working in many different ‘ponds’ (slurry lagoons), the machine has been tested to its full capacity, enabling Wilton Agricultural to expand as local farmers, a testament to Brodie’s timeliness and work ethic. Wilton Agricultural also supports its drag hose work with mixing paddles and high volume tractordriven jetters. With Brodie’s experiences of PTO-driven drag hose pumps, his step into this type of purchase was a calculated risk. With a figure of M3 to pump and spread in their first season, Wilton Agricultural has already exceeded its target. FG

The Wox Invader pump system has been tested across many different slurry lagoons.

Brodie Wilton also invested in a 12m Vogelsang Compax dribble bar.

Spread it, don’t talk it. Introducing the ultimate high performance drag hose equipment for more effective and efficient manure application: • Handle large volumes of material at the optimum time of year. • Reduce nutrient losses by preventing overspreading and pooling with the Scarab front tank. • Maximise storage, efficiency and life of hose equipment with the Tempest and Typhoon reelers with Shugfit couplings. • Optimise hose handling capacity with the Viper hose handler.

New self-propelled spreader launched with improved traction Vervaet claims that driving all five wheels saves fuel when working on loose soil.

Dutch specialist equipment manufacturer Vervaet is currently testing a 5-wheel drive version of its Hydro Trike self-propelled spreader, the Hydro Trike 5x5. This new option utilises an updated powertrain along with other improvements. From a distance, the new machine doesn’t appear much different to any other Vervaet Hydro Trike, but operators of current machines will notice several changes. The 5-wheel concept has already more than proven itself, combining the single front wheel’s excellent manoeuvrability with the even ground pressure across the full 4.5m width provided by the additional

mid-axle. These advantages are great on grassland, but also valuable when working on bare ground and in growing crops. The Hydro Trike 5x5 comes into its own when working on hilly terrain, with the 5x5 making fertiliser application possible on hillsides. Vervaet also claims that driving all five wheels saves fuel when working on loose cultivated land.

Vervaet launched the VSG drive system earlier this year which employs two hydraulic motors to power the rear axle. These are interconnected by a wet plate clutch so that both provide drive when the machine is accelerating and during field-work when the pumps provide high oil volumes for maximum power. Once up to speed the machine’s electronics control the oil flow so that the second motor only provides as much power as required. When on the road, the system disengages one of the motors. This all takes place automatically and on-the-move, so that the machine can be driven at speed on the headland with an empty tank, for example, without having to stop and switch from field to transport range. The Trike’s 40kph top speed can be reached with the engine running at just 1,200rpm rather than at around 1,400rpm, saving yet more fuel. Vervaet already offered a traction control system which allowed the driver to control the power distribution between the front wheel

and rear axle. However, this manual system needed a skilled operator, as an incorrectly set balance can be inefficient. On the new Trikes, a fully electronic traction control system replaces this manual setup. Sensors measure each wheel’s speed and send more oil to the wheel with most traction. This automatic system also controls the mid-axle’s ground pressure, so that if the rear wheels slip it puts more weight on them by slightly raising the mid-axle. A new three-point suspension system replaces leaf springs with repositioned shock absorbers at the front of the axle. An inclination sensor, which detects whether the machine is on a side-hill, allows the system to automatically lock the suspension on the far side. On top of these innovations, the new Trike also heralds the arrival of the latest 530hp Paccar engines which will be fitted as standard from next season. Vervaet debuted this latest version of the Hydro Trike XL at Agritechnica. It will enter production in phases over 2020 and 2021 and will be available in the UK solely through J Riley Beet Harvesters (UK) Ltd. FG

Innovative dairy feed benefits farmers and the environment At a time when the farming industry is under increasing pressure to cost competitively feed a growing population, whilst reducing its impact on the environment, animal feed and rapeseed oil producer Yelo is revolutionising the way dairy feed is produced. Sarah Kidby spoke to product development director Dr Michael Marsden, from Trident Feeds, to find out more. While it is fair to say that the farming sector faces significant challenges – not least the pressure to produce more food at the same time as cutting carbon emissions and chemical usage – the wealth of innovation in the industry suggests it is more than equal to the challenge. The sustainable dairy cow feed NovaPro, launched by Yelo in February 2019, promises to increase milk yields at a lower cost to the farmer and the environment, thanks to a novel manufacturing process. The company, which

recently hosted a tour of its stateof-the-art facility in Stratford-UponAvon, uses 100 per cent UK-grown oilseed rape in its manufacturing process, supporting British farmers and reducing food miles. Yelo says the need for a sustainable alternative to soya-based livestock feed is clear, with government figures showing soya imports to the UK totalled 3.1 million tonnes in 2015-16. Manufacturing dairy feed from a UK-grown crop would cut food miles by reducing the demand for imported soya, which reduces deforestation

pressure. Improving feed efficiency could also improve milk yields and lower nitrogen losses.

Pressure, not chemicals Having decided early on that it would not use chemicals such as hexane solvent to extract the oil, Yelo’s facility uses mechanical presses to squeeze the oil from the rapeseed, creating a rape expeller, or ‘rape cake’. According to the company, it is the only industrial-scale hot press rape expeller in the country, with all other rapeseedbased rumen bypass products using

hexane solvent-treated rape extract instead. This results in a lower-energy feed as the extract has approximately five percentage points less oil. The hexane recovery process, which requires additional heat, has been shown in published research to have a negative impact on the digestibility of protein, Dr Marsden said.

Improving production In order to improve production, it is beneficial for a certain amount of the protein in dairy feed to bypass the rumen – one of the four stomachs present in ruminant animals – so it is more efficiently digested in the ‘true’ stomach and intestines. Technology is needed to force proteins to slip through the rumen undetected by microbes, so to convert the ‘rape cake’ into feed, Yelo uses a continued over...

specific wood sugar liquid (Xylig), along with heat, moisture and time. These four parameters must be carefully balanced to optimise the amount of bypass protein and its subsequent digestion to avoid ‘total bypass’, where the protein passes straight through the body undigested. Yelo is the only feed processor in the UK using Xylig to treat rape protein, which the company says is superior for achieving rumen bypass, as its benign process is reversible after leaving the rumen and entering the stomach. Other processes using a large amount of heat, so less benign, cannot create the same proportion of post-rumen digestible bypass protein, Dr Marsden explained.

Bypassing the rumen Describing the manufacturing process, Dr Marsden likened the rape cake to a ‘ball of wool’ – or a long strand wrapped around to form a ball. Wood sugar is applied, which interacts with the protein and twists the shape of the ball so that rumen microbes can no longer recognise it. As a result, it bypasses the rumen and heads straight to the true stomach, where natural stomach acids twist it back to its original shape and it can be digested. This, according to Yelo, creates a highly digestible feed that is virtually identical to soya in terms of the content of bypass protein.

Better yields, lower costs A four-month dairy study at the University of Nottingham revealed that cows fed a NovaPro style diet each produced 1.7 litres more milk per day, compared to those fed a soyabased control diet. These findings support other scientific evidence that rape-based feeds offer higher milk yields. A meta-analysis of 49 different studies (Martineau et al, 2013) found that milk yield and dry matter intake

farmer than soya-based feeds, he added. Headline figures at the time of writing suggest it is around £50 cheaper per tonne, although this would depend on variable factors including the location of the farm and global soya and oilseed rape prices.

Sustainability Yelo’s facility produces its own renewable heat and power using UKsourced, low-grade biomass residues, which the company says makes it one of the UK’s most energy and carbonefficient production sites. In addition, the wood sugar used in the process is a co-product from the wood pulping industry. For every tree used, another three are replanted. According to Dr Marsden, the environmental footprint of rape cake is “very favourable” compared to that of soya bean meal, having around 60-70 per cent of the impact of soya. It also addresses the majority of the 16 environmental impacts of livestock feed production, which are listed by the EU in their developing product environmental footprint methodology. This assessment is based on any-origin rape expeller compared to any-origin soya, so Yelo plans to produce its own assessment using the same methodology, specifically for NovaPro, once the plant is at capacity. The company anticipates that this will show an improved environmental footprint, as the rapeseed is locally sourced and sustainable woody biomass is used to fuel the boilers.

While soya has been viewed as the ‘gold standard’ for dairy feed, Yelo says attitudes are changing as scientific evidence highlights the benefits of alternative rape-based feeds. Metcalfe Farms, winner of the NMR RABDF Gold Cup in 2018, is among the early adopters of NovaPro, and is now using a ratio of two thirds NovaPro to one third soya. The 525ha dairy farm,

based in Leyburn in North Yorkshire, comprises 1,300 pedigree Holsteins. Philip Metcalfe, who runs the farm with his brothers Brian and David, said: “NovaPro has given us an opportunity to reduce our soya footprint and adopt a homegrown source of protein and energy. We started integrating it about four months ago and are gradually reducing our hipro soya inclusion.” KW nutritionist Dr Anna Sutcliffe, who is overseeing the reformulation of the ration and cow

products from homegrown rapeseed. We are very excited about NovaPro, seeing farm evidence of it successfully replacing soya in dairy rations. “Furthermore, while we are focusing on reducing our footprint, with a carbon efficient operation, we are producing a protein feed that, in turn, helps the dairy sector improve its nitrogen efficiency.” FG

The benefits Supporting British farmers: All rapeseed is sourced from the UK, within a 50-mile radius of Yelo’s plant in Stratford-Upon Avon. Improved milk yields: Research shows cows fed NovaPro produced 1.7 litres more milk per day. The margin over purchased feed improved by 28p per cow per day. High digestibility: The process uses a rape expeller rather than rape extract, meaning it is higher in energy and protein is more digestible than bypass products using rape extract. No chemicals: Oil is removed from the seed using mechanical pressure, not hexane solvent. Sustainable: Yelo uses sustainable woody biomass to fuel the boilers and the wood sugar used in the manufacturing process is a co-product from the pulping industry. For every tree used in the pulping process, three new ones are planted. The company says the product could also reduce or replace the need for soya imports and there are fewer feed miles as rapeseed is sourced locally. Cost: Yelo says the cost of NovaPro is reduced by around £50 per tonne compared to soya. (This is an estimate only and may depend upon the location of the farm and global soya and oilseed rape prices).

generally improved with rape-based feeding regimes. The Yelo plant produces ‘expeller’ rapeseed feeds, which had a higher residual rapeseed oil component, increasing the metabolisable energy content of the feed by around 1MJ/kg compared to traditional solvent-extracted rapemeal. Using recent feed and milk prices, Dr Marsden said the margin over purchased feed (MOPF) also improved on the NovaPro diet by 28p per cow per day. The feed is cheaper for the

performance added: “NovaPro has cost-effectively replaced hipro soya in the ration maintaining milk yield and constituents to expectation. We are also seeing reduced milk urea levels indicating improved nitrogen efficiency.” Yelo CEO Kevin Ball comments: “We are proud to be championing UK farming and developing higher value

The future is bright for Melton Mowbray Market Melton Mowbray Market celebrates 150 years of trading on its current site this year, and organisers believe it has a strong future – having invested £5.5 million in its redevelopment. Clemmie Gleeson reports. When they are run well, markets are the best way of doing business, says Melton Mowbray Market CEO, Hugh Brown (right). “It doesn’t matter if you are a big business or someone with just a few lots to sell – a market offers a level playing field with fair and transparent price formation.” Melton Mowbray is celebrating its 150th year at its current site, although it is thought that there has been a livestock market in the town for 1,000 years. Hugh is a relative newcomer, having taken over as CEO in 2016. His background is markets, rather than livestock, with a career that began at the London Stock Exchange. After leaving the stock exchange, a spell in market consultancy saw Hugh working across commodity, currency and energy markets. He says; “I came across livestock markets at this time and thought they were amazing!” Hugh spoke with organisers of various livestock markets and learned about Melton Mowbray. The partnership behind the market was at a crossroads with partners due to retire, a new lease needed and investment required to bring the site up to date. “I brought in external investors to help them do all of those things,” says Hugh. “Both the partners and the local council helped the transition so a lot of credit is due to them.”

Redeveloped site Hugh’s first big task was re-development of the livestock site in 2017. It was a £5.5million project with the new cattle building forming the main element. With capacity for 1,000 head of cattle, the new building has separate sale rings for calves, stores and prime cattle and was officially opened by Princess Anne in March 2018. “The calf ring is pretty groundbreaking as it has a drive-through element where calves are offloaded and loaded much easier, which contributes to better animal welfare. The whole building is airy and the pen design looks after the animals, plus the humans as well – health and safety is a priority with excellent gate design and escape routes. It has helped to secure the market on the site for at least the next 20 years.” Scott Ruck joined as auctioneer and head of sales in January 2019, having worked as a freelance auctioneer for the market previously. A graduate of the Royal Agricultural College in Cirencester, Scott has worked in farm management and as an auctioneer for Thame market. He also believes that Melton has a bright future. “It is one of the largest town markets and they are continuing to invest. It is accessible from all directions and you can buy almost everything from a cabbage to a cow!

“Typically, the market oversees the sale of 3,000 sheep, 100 fat cattle, 250– 600 store cattle and 200 calves, all in a day. With sales taking place between 10am and 3pm it also allows buyers and sellers travel time,” Scott says. As well as the physical advantages of the new building and the fact that Melton sells every class of livestock, including pigs and poultry, on the same day, the market plays an important role socially for farmers and the wider community, too. “I really enjoy the interaction with farmers and the public who can understand the process of farming and food. We are completely transparent and all are welcome,” he adds. The new building has enabled Melton to host more prestigious sales – it held the second Limousin Cattle Society sale in October. “We wouldn’t have got those without the new building,“ explains Hugh. The changes were made carefully and with an understanding of the market's history. “If we never change anything, we would be in trouble, but we have to be conscious of the history and traditions and not do too much too fast,” Hugh adds.

Looking to the future Livestock markets across the country have been consolidating with fewer owners running a smaller number of set-ups, which Hugh expects to continue. This is not unique to livestock markets, he says. “In the 1960s there were 25 different stock exchanges in the UK, now there’s only one essentially that operates the whole of the UK, half of Europe and makes most of its money from North America. Consolidation will continue to happen and may even accelerate.” In the future, Hugh expects

Melton to have other markets under its wing. “We fully intend to cement our place as the premier market group in the East Midlands.” Hugh credits Melton’s town centre location for playing a key role in its success. Its wider location in the middle of the country has also played a part. “Having bucked the trend to go out of town, we have something to offer people they don’t get elsewhere. We have the town centre, hotels, restaurants and so on, so people visiting get more than a motorway service station experience.”

A new cattle building was the main element of a £5.5million re-development of the livestock site in 2017.

As well as the livestock market, Melton hosts a farmer’s market, antiques market and general produce sales. “It really is the countryside coming to town for the day,” he says. A recent addition is an award-winning on-site brewery and taproom which brings people in on different days and times – breathing additional life into the market site. “We intend to do more things like that as well,” he adds. While the official opening of the new cattle building was a great moment, “every week is a highlight in the market,” says Hugh. “There is such a buzz with so many different things happening.” FG

Making better breeding decisions Sarah Kidby spoke to AHDB’s head of animal genetics, Marco Winters, about the role of genetics in boosting farm productivity, helping farmers to make more informed decisons. Choosing the right bulls to breed from and buying semen are among the most important decisions you will make, as it shapes the herd for years to come and can be the difference between profit and loss, Marco (right) says. Even using the best management techniques, animal performance is limited and can only be optimised by breeding from the best stock. Genetics help to produce dairy cows that can thrive in diverse farming systems, allowing farmers to improve the health, welfare and productivity of their cows. With AHDB’s latest genetics evaluation coming out in early December, now is a good time to review breeding plans and harness potential gains in the herd.

Before making any decisions on breeding, it is important to assess your herd’s current status, Marco explains. The Herd Genetic Report (HGR) can highlight strengths, weaknesses and genetic potential for dairy farmers who fully milk record. Once areas for improvement have been identified, AHDB’s new Breeding Trait Selector can recommend and prioritise the best genetic traits for the herd, while the Breeding Season Semen Calculator works out semen requirements. Both new tools can be found on ahdb.org.uk/breedingblocks One autumn calver who uses the HGR, Matt Ford, says: “We’ve been pushing more for fertility rather than milk, so we’re only about 50th

Round bale feeder ‘cuts costs and feed bills’ Wastage in feed bills is something that any livestock farmer would prefer to avoid, or at least reduce. This new bale feeder claims to do exactly that. A new round bale feeder from Wessex International can be mounted to both tractors or telehandlers, allowing farmers to feed from either side. The BFX-180 has been designed to meet demand and is ideal for livestock farmers who need a versatile machine that feeds out silage, hay, haylage or chopped material. The company says this adaptable machine reduces time and manual labour, with a saving of up to 20 per cent on feed bills due to reduced waste. What’s more, it is simple to use, with three easy stages to prepare for feeding – spiking the bale and, with the wrap removed, lowering it onto the cradle and autoengaging the headstock ready to lift and complete. There are no electrics involved, making maintenance easy, and the bale feeder comes with three-point linkage as standard. It’s ideally suited to use with smaller

loaders for agile yard work and optional loader brackets are also available. Speed of operation is what this bale feeder is all about, according to Wessex. The convenience of feeding out from both sides is complemented by another key feature – the detachable loading headstock with ‘Quiklatch’ system, which enables fast and easy reloading without the need to unplug hydraulics. The BFX-180 can handle round bales of up to 1.2 x 1.2m, or 1.8 x 1.5m, with a weight of up to 1,000kg. Close inspection of the machine reveals a High-Density Polyethylene (HDPE) feeder floor, for zero corrosion and minimal material leakage. This is ideal for crumbly or

wet bales and the 5,500kg load-rated roller chains and strong chain bars make it perfectly suited for use with heavy silage bales, Wessex explains. Meanwhile, there are only two grease points for low maintenance and high strength bolt-on bale spikes easily deal with tight bales. Optional extras on the new machine include front and rear chamber plates to let you handle loose feed, such as root crops,

without leakage. The optional offset tractor linkage allows the operator to drop the feed outside the width of the tractor, making it easier to feed close to walls or into troughs. There is also the option of offset loader brackets, to prevent feed being driven over. Now for the technical bit – the unit weighs in at 525kg, hydraulics requirement is one double-acting spool, and oil flow is at 12 litres/min, CAT 2. FG

Beef, Sheep & Lambing

Feed ewes to support foetal growth and colostrum quality body condition towards the end of pregnancy, because this can lead to depressed colostrum production – both in terms of its quantity and quality, or immunoglobulin (IgG) concentration. Trials have shown that between 15 and 20 per cent of lamb mortality, 24-hours post-partum, is preventable through provision of sufficient quantity (150–210ml/kg of birth weight) of high quality colostrum (IgG > 50g/L). “Key drivers for quality ewe colostrum production are managing body reserve mobilisation, breed, age, gestation length, and lamb birth weight,” Georgina adds. “If good quality, plentiful colostrum is not available, a colostrum enhancer or a colostrum replacer must be fed. Colostrum is the most important feed to an animal.”

Ration formulation

Sheep producers must use their scanning results to group and feed pregnant ewes accordingly – and not just as a predictor of lambing percentage. That’s the message from Cargill’s technical sales manager Georgina Croxford, who gave Rachael Porter some nutrition pointers for pregnant ewes. Georgina (right) explains that many producers do scan their flocks to determine if ewes are expecting single, twin or triplet lambs, “but many don’t use that information to group, feed and manage their ewes in the run up to lambing.” She adds that this year’s early scanning results are good, showing a high number of multiples (January lambing flocks). But this is just the starting point for a successful lambing season. Feeding ewes during the final six weeks of pregnancy is particularly important because 70 per cent of foetal growth takes place during this period, as well as udder development and colostrum production. “Paying extra attention to ewe nutrition at this time is key,” Georgina explains. “During this period the ewe’s energy and protein

requirements increase rapidly – more than doubling for ewes with twins. But as the lambs grow, the ewe’s ability to eat bulk reduces. Therefore, the nutrient density of the ration must be increased gradually to keep pace with foetal requirements. “The best way to achieve this is to group and feed ewes according to scanning results and their condition score.” Ideally ewes should lamb at a body condition score (BCS) of 3–3.5. This should also be the condition they’re tupped at, to optimise fertility and conception/lambing percentage. “Feeding ewes to put on condition after tupping is a big no,” Georgina stresses. “It’s not good for the ewe, the lambs, or colostrum quality.” So, it’s important to prevent a change in ewe

Shepherdess

When it comes to ration formulation, the starting point is to analyse silage. “There’s a lot more silage around this year, compared to 2018, and if producers are going to utilise this effectively and feed pregnant ewes a balanced ration, then they need to know the protein, energy, fibre, and mineral content of their forage. “They can then supplement this with ewe concentrates or cereals, as well as minerals, to meet the ewes’ nutritional requirements.” Georgina adds that a good quality mineral – containing selenium and vitamin E to support antioxidant status of the ewe and good quality colostrum production – is vital.

Epigenetic effect “How we manage our ewes during pregnancy will affect not only their performance, but that of their offspring too,” says Georgina. “This is an epigenetic effect.” For example, if the ewe suffers nutritional stress during the final few weeks of pregnancy, it will impact on her offspring’s fertility when they join the breeding herd. “So, feeding ewes in pregnancy has a longer-term affect. It’s not just about the ewe and her colostrum. It also impacts on the future productivity of her lambs. Paying more attention to pregnant ewe nutrition will pay dividends in the short and long term.” FG

Breathable, washable calf jackets can help, but they don’t completely negate the need for extra milk powder.

The LCT for a calf will depend on its age. Calves that are fewer than three weeks old will have an LCT of 10 degrees Celsius, compared to calves that are more than three weeks old, which have an LCT of five degrees Celsius. “Young calves only have limited reserves of energy to call upon when exposed to low temperatures. In a newborn calf these reserves will be depleted in just 18 hours, leaving them highly susceptible to infection and disease,” says Debby Brown. “So, it is essential that producers provide calves with additional calf milk replacer to boost energy and protein levels. Feed higher concentrations of calf milk replacer, for example between 15 per cent and 17 per cent, and not extra litres.” FG

Baby, it’s cold outside As temperatures drop it’s vital to make sure that young calves are fed and managed to maintain growth rates and health. Rachael Porter reports. Feeding young calves is also about energy – not just volume. So says vet Debby Brown (right), from Dugdale Nutrition. “Many producers are still under-feeding dairy calves during cold weather because they’re just following the ‘two litres of whole milk twice a day’ approach,” she says. Calves need energy to maintain basic body functions, to keep warm, to power the immune system and to grow, so it’s absolutely vital that they get enough energy. “Without it they are not growing – and that’s the best case scenario,” she says. “Worst case is that they’re succumbing to infections and losing weight because they aren’t getting enough energy to maintain basic body functions, keep warm and

fight off infectious pathogens. In cold weather this becomes an even bigger issue as more energy is used by the calf to warm.” She adds that it can help to ensure that there’s plenty of deep straw bedding – ideally to a depth where you can’t see the calf’s legs when she’s laid – as well as using breathable, washable calf jackets: “But they don’t completely negate the need for extra milk powder, particularly in calves that are less than a month old.”

any additional energy to maintain its body temperature, leaving the maximum amount of energy available for growth. But at 10 degrees Celsius and below, calves will feel cold stress and be using increasing amounts of energy to help maintain a constant body temperature. This is the lower critical temperature (LCT).

Incineration of fallen stock Inciner8 marketing manager, Alex Billingsley (pictured), believes that incineration remains the most effective and bio secure method for properly disposing of fallen livestock, ultimately safeguarding agricultural businesses against disease outbreaks and avoiding cross contamination. According to Alex: “Not only does incineration eradicate the risk of disease and infection almost completely, it also prevents vermin or insect infestations. “Severe winter weather over

recent years has meant a steady rise in fallen stock, which has affected farmers’ profits. Many reservations around the use of incinerators stem from archaic misconceptions when, in fact, Defra-approved incineration technology is clean, cost-effective, and mobile – with options such as trailer-mounted and containerised. Together, these put farmers back in control of both their overheads and the operational requirements associated with fallen stock. “Increasing pressure from ‘Zero Waste to Landfill’ targets and schemes for ‘Going Green’ also support a compelling case for UK farms to invest in sustainable waste management solutions. Indeed, there are various government grants and tax relief schemes available to make an incinerator an attractive investment. “As experts in waste incineration, Inciner8 has supported farms around the globe in developing and enforcing effective waste management strategies, and have been central to ensuring incineration becomes a preventative measure as opposed to a clean-up exercise.” FG

Fed up with increasing collection fees for your fallen stock? Rising gate fees and rendering costs are making it harder to remain profitable in an already squeezed industry. Invest in a small capacity incinerator (<50kgs per hour) and remove your collection costs, safely manage disease prevention and improve your bio-security at the same time. What’s not to like about that?

Beef, Sheep & Lambing

Reducing lamb losses: Hygiene focus Practising good hygiene when preparing sheds for lambing could significantly reduce lamb losses, according to Helen Ainsworth at BASF. Sarah Kidby reports. The majority of lamb losses (49 per cent) occur within 48 hours of birth, often as a result of diseases that could be prevented by disinfecting sheds and lambing areas, Helen says. A further 21 per cent of deaths occur after two days post-lambing, while the remainder (30 per cent) happen between scanning and lambing. Losses during the neonatal period often cost more than may be expected – an estimated £20-25 per lamb. Common causes of postnatal lamb deaths include watery mouth and joint ill, both of which can be prevented by lambing in a hygienic environment, BASF says. The company recommends thoroughly disinfecting both sheds and equipment between each ewe, to prevent postnatal disease, which it says is largely down to a lack of hygiene awareness. In order to make the most of disinfectant and reduce diseases throughout lambing, Helen suggests disinfecting accommodation prior to the start of lambing, which is best achieved by pressure washing the sides and floors of the pens with a quality detergent, before spraying with disinfectant. Sick ewes should be isolated and penned separately. Once lambing begins, any lambs showing signs of disease should also be separated and given appropriate treatment, to help reduce the risk of contaminating other ewes and lambs during the lambing period. Farmers should be sure to wear clean overalls and dip their boots in disinfectant to reduce the risk of introducing harmful bacteria, viruses and other micro-organisms. It is also

good practice to wash hands with a bactericidal soap before entering the shed, particularly when examining ewes or lambs, or assisting with lambing. Keep all equipment from the shed in a solution of disinfectant when not in use. Use a clean bucket and solution of 1:250 of disinfectant to store water bowls, teats and milk dispensers, and change it regularly to prevent bacteria build-up. Finally, muck out and disinfect pens on a regular basis, ideally removing old bedding and replacing it with fresh bedding every day. Helen explains: “A focus on hygiene during lambing is one of the simplest and most economical ways to reduce lamb losses. Approximately a third of losses in lowland flocks occur in the neonatal period and most are the result of diseases that can be prevented by keeping the shed or lambing area clean and disinfected… “We have the tools to reduce lamb losses to an absolute minimum. Farmers can reduce losses by simply keeping their sheds and equipment clean by using a disinfectant properly this season.” BASF’s broad-spectrum disinfectant, Sorgene Xtra, can be used for general hygiene, spraying or specific disease control, depending on the concentration used. It is effective against disease-causing microorganisms such as viruses, bacteria, fungi and fungal spores. Buildings and housing can be restocked soon after application and Basf says the product is biodegradable – leaving no residues – so no rinsing is necessary. FG

Farmers Guide 25 years ago The Farmers Guide in December 1994 included a 20-page preview of the forthcoming Royal Smithfield Show. The Fendt Xylon, featured in an advertisement on the December front cover, was launched on Stand 145 at Earls Court. There were three models in the Xylon range with 110, 125 and 140hp four-cylinder MAN engines, a Turbomatik clutch, a four-stage Powershift gearbox and a centrally-mounted cab. Renault were introducing the new Tractronic two-in-one transmission system with a fourspeed synchromesh gearbox, a high-low range box and a Power Command Lever at Earls Court. The lever allowed the driver to select forward, neutral or reverse in the selected gear without using the clutch. Tractronic was available as an optional extra for the TX//TZ range for just under £3,000. Case IH were showing their 1995 models of the Axial-Flow combine and the latest Magnum 3200 and 4200 series tractors. The company donated one of the 4200 Series tractors to be auctioned for Save the Children. The 412S Farm Master loading shovel and the 2CX Farm Master loader were among the additions to the JCB range at the Smithfield Show. The latest 170hp JCB Fastrac 185 with a six-cylinder Cummins engine and a new Loadall telescopic handler were also making their debut. Berthoud was launching their latest Racer 2000 trailed sprayers with 2,000–3,200-litre tanks and 12–28m boom widths, and Danfoil

would be showing two models of their new Air Assist sprayer. Developed by two Danish farmers, Danfoil sprayers could apply just 30– 45 litres/ha and spray up to 28ha with one 850-litre tankful. A new 2.8m version of the front-mounted Splendimo mower conditioner and a Superbowl fertiliser spreader with a 9,000-litre hopper and a price tag of £3,780 for hydraulic on/off control would be on the Lely stand. On other stands, visitors to the Royal Smithfield Show would be able to see the latest Lynx Engineering’s front linkage and power take-off attachments, Vaderstad was planning to show a new Concorde II pneumatic seed drill while hydraulically folding 6 and 8m air drills would be on the Ferrag stand. Stanhay Webb planned to exhibit 12-row models of the latest Singulaire vegetable drill and a hydraulic folding version of the Rallye 592. Farm Machinery News featured the Chaviot Spray Coupe 3000 from North Dakota. This selfpropelled sprayer looked much like a wingless aeroplane with an 87hp Peugeot engine, a top speed of 20mph and high lift boom which could apply from 40- to 100-litres/ha. Lemken Triag launched a new 6m pneumatic seed drill and a new series of Euro-Plough reversibles with 3, 4 or 5 furrows and prices starting at £7,095. In other news, Standen Reflex were to import Holmer six-row sugar beet harvesters from Bavaria and RDS satellite yield mapping would be available for John Deere combines for the 1995 harvest. And finally, Ernest Cozens commented that with the leaves off the hedges he was amazed to see that, thanks to the Indian summer, the potato harvest was almost complete, sugar beet lifting was on schedule and he couldn’t remember a year when so much land had been ploughed and drilled.

Record sale prices

An iconic 1903 Ivel, one of only eight models known worldwide, set a UK auction record.

At a recent Cheffins vintage sale in Cambridgeshire, the UK auction record price of £94,500 for a vintage or classic tractor was shattered when a 1903 Ivel Agricultural Motor, previously owned by John Moffatt, was sold for a staggering £328,600. The tractor is one of only eight Ivel models known worldwide, with four of them in museum collections. Other record-breaking prices at the auction included a County 1884 sold for £139,920. Based on a 188hp Ford TW, the 1884 was the largest County 4-wheel drive tractor made – it cost about £41,000 when delivered new to an Essex farm in 1982. A 1980 County 1474, based on a 153hp Ford TW 20, which cost £26,830 when new, was sold for £99,640. FG

Turner Yeoman of England The green and yellow Turner Yeoman of England diesel-engined tractor, launched at the 1949 Royal Show at Shrewsbury, was made by the Turner Manufacturing Co at Wolverhampton. The 40hp tractor had a Turner four-cylinder V-form engine, dry plate clutch, four forward gears and one reverse, a top speed of 13mph, independent foot brakes, hydraulic linkage and a 48–72in adjustable wheel track. An unusual feature was the off-set seat and steering wheel to improve the driver’s view when working in row crops. Power take-off, belt pulley, diff-lock, wheel weights and electric lighting were optional extras. Sales literature explained that the ‘Yeoman of England would do more work at less cost per acre’ and ‘could pull four furrows as easily as other tractors could pull three, giving the farmer one extra ploughed acre per hour without additional

fuel costs’. An electric starter and a decompressor were included in the basic price of around £700. The tractor was offered with a full range of implements made by various manufacturers including Adrolic Engineering ploughs, Leverton disc harrows, cultivators, tool bar, McConnel saw bench, Featherstone cutter bar mower and a Scottish Aviation cab. However the Yeoman of England suffered from starting problems which resulted in poor sales and the last Turner diesel tractors were made in 1955. FG The Turner Yeoman of England had a 40hp V-form diesel engine.

New business starts venture with McCormick Terry Coles, formerly of dealership JG Plant, has been tempted out of retirement to help create a new business selling farm machinery – and has already attracted a highprofile franchise for McCormick tractors. Terry supplied hundreds of tractors and implements to farmers and contractors through JG Plant, which he sold in 2014. The dealership was placed into administration at the end of last year, leaving customers in the Bridgend area and beyond without a local source of parts and servicing for their machines. Terry agreed to help set up TC Agriculture

with workshop technicians Will Lean and David Howells (who is also involved in sales), and parts/ stores manager Steve Evans. The business operates from the Brackla Trading Estate in Coity near Bridgend and immediately began supplying service consumables, replacement parts and other small but essential items that farmers need day-to-day. It also provides repairs and routine servicing. While the company intended to only trade in used tractors and machinery, Terry says the opportunity to take on McCormick was “irresistable”.

New farming insurance agents for NFU Mutual The National Farmers’ Union and NFU Mutual have announced the appointment of Jodie Martin and Sean Gardner as group secretaries for the NFU Peterborough branch, and NFU mutual agents in the Greater Peterborough Agency, led by James Skelton. Jodie has worked at the agency for much of her professional career and, after a number of promotions, has spent the past two years as agency operations manager and a member of the senior leadership team. Having lived in

the Peterborough area all her life, she brings much local knowledge to the role. Meanwhile, Sean started his career with PBI Cambridge Ltd, before embarking on an international business career working for Monsanto in Canada, the US and Europe, during which time he was global wheat lead. Over the past year, he has been working for an independent agronomy company. The two appointments form part of the succession planning for the branch and agency. Helen Clarke will continue as group secretary and agent, with James Skelton as senior group secretary and agent. Catherine Little continues as group secretary for the NFU Ramsey and Whittlesey Branch.

Commenting on the appointment, United Oilseeds’ group managing director, Chris Baldwin (pictured), said: “We have ambitious expansion plans for Hubbard Seeds and Nick’s valuable commercial and agronomic knowledge will play a key role in driving the growth and development of the company and its team.” Nick said he is particularly keen to increase the company’s market share and presence within the market.

Specialist agri-food PR and marketing agency, Pinstone, has taken on two new recruits this autumn – account director Rosie Hopkins and account executive Ali Parker. Rosie first joined the company in 2014 as a graduate, before leaving in 2017 to help start-up The Business Barn, where she worked across all aspects of the business and built upon her digital marketing experience. On her return to Pinstone she is heading up client accounts ranging from livestock

nutrition and animal health to renewable energy. Ali Parker completed a degree in Consumer Behaviour and Marketing at the University of Reading, after which she worked in various departments within the National Farmers’ Union, including the policy directorate and a regional office. Her time in the communications department sparked an interest in PR and she completed the NFU’s graduate programme before moving back to the mixed family farm in Hertfordshire. Now at Pinstone, she says she gets involved with a variety of strategic client outputs, including writing editorial and social media content, videography and event management.

NIAB’s potato research, trials and services, which span agronomy, disease testing, varieties and inspection. By continuing to develop NIAB CUF’s worldwide services, such as irrigation scheduling and yield modelling, we should continue to bring in considerable income in the future.” Dr Stalham has a PhD in potato crisp agronomy, an MSc in viticulture, and more than 33 years’ extensive experience and success in the areas of potato research and knowledge exchange.
