A farmer visited his local dealer, as his old tractor had nally given up following harvest and he urgently needed a replacement to get his winter wheat in the ground. After test-driving a few options, he chose the one he wanted and lled out the Apaperwork.weeklater, the tractor was delivered and the farmer immediately put it to use. A couple of months after delivery, the farmer’s wife visited him in the eld to say the dealer was on the phone, and had been trying to get hold of him for weeks. Taking the phone, the farmer had a brief chat with the dealer before hanging up. His wife asked what was so urgent, and he replied: “They reckon I’ve missed a payment on my nance deal – but as I explained to them, I don’t owe them anything as they clearly told me this tractor will pay for itself.” Members of Weaving Machinery’s management, workshop, service, manufacturing and design departments took part in the Three Peaks Challenge recently – raising a whopping £7,855 for charity, on behalf of the Farming Community Network. The entire team, comprising Sarie Weaving, George Flack, Harry Clark, Marcus Halford, Dan Bradley, Tom Savill, Mike Lane, Mark Earlam, Adrian Stayte, Luke Astley, Daniel Stoltz, Dan Amironsei, Leigh Papandreou and Steve Draper, ranged in age from 18–63.

Pictured at the foot of Snowdon before climbing over 3,408m in total, all completed it – with placement student Tom Savill, director Sarie Weaving and salesman Harry Clark spectacularly making it to the nish line within 24 hours. Farmers Guide was proud to sponsor the team for their e orts for such an amazing cause.

In preparation for the launch of sister publication Fruit & Vine magazine, the team visited Chilford Hall Vineyard. Dave Cianciola led the group on an educational tour, discussing the nine varieties across 17,000 vines.

Ernest Doe sales sta are pictured enjoying a New Holland harvesting products training day at the dealer’s Ulting, Essex depot.

Machinery editor David Williams was on-farm this month, test-driving the rst Valtra Q-series. Just one early release agship Q305 visited the UK for a few days in late July, before travelling on to Europe for the start of a new model launch tour, and Farmers Guide caught up with it on a Lincolnshire farm. Read his full report on pages 53–54.

Whilst visiting the Ernest Doe Ulting depot, Farmers Guide director Greg Goulding, classi ed sales executive Sam Wilson, editor Rachel Hicks, and machinery editor David Williams got their rst glimpse of a grape harvester. Ernest Doe marketing manager Hayley Hill, pictured centre, explained it was also the rst grape harvester that many of the Ernest Doe team had ever seen on-site, so it had received a lot of attention. It was ordered by a local vineyard, for use this autumn.

The latter point shouldn’t be underestimated. It’s amazing what can, and does, go wrong with commodities that are on lorries – be that about passports, the wrong grain, foreign objects, quality issues, highway accidents, infestation etc. What many famers don’t realise is that trade assurance (TASCC) also imposes restrictions on what can be done with a ‘problem’ load. For clarity, any lorry rejected at destination can’t be moved to another destination without the co-operative or merchant telling the new consumer exactly why it was previously rejected. What is also not generally realised is that consumers can and do ll in end point rejection forms which also get sent to Red Tractor and could result in the farm becoming non-valid until the issue is shown to be recti ed. We all have a duty to do our best to keep the supply chain moving, but being 100% in control of your farm’s quality and costs will make marketing easier and save you losing out on claims and redirection charges. After all, what’s the use of getting a good price if you give it away by loading contractually-faulty commodity?

I was recently asked if marketing grain would ever be easy, says Open eld’s head of compliance, shipping and research, Cecilia Pryce (right). I did contemplate replying with: “What’s hard about it?”, but the character asking wouldn’t have found that amusing. But, in reality, what is hard about it? As farmers, you all have a number of merchants/co-operatives that you can choose to trade with. Most contract terms are based on an AIC 1/21 (Agricultural Industries Confederation ex farm contract for home grown grains and pulses), or a FOSFA 26A for OSR, matched with respective merchants/co-operatives ex farm terms – so, as a farmer, you have to load a lorry, have your Red Tractor assurance in order and ll in a passport. Sounds easy, but the di cult part is deciding when you x the price. Do you believe you know enough about global grain markets to make that call? Honestly, I doubt there are many who would say yes to that. Even the best global grain traders couldn’t have predicted the market moves we have seen in the last few years, let alone have predicted what would have caused them.Fundamentally, marketing of grain is complicated and nobody ever wants to think they got it wrong, because that fear of getting it wrong is also mixed with pride and concern over the future viability of the farm. Ultimately, the pressure to market your crops is huge, as is the desire to be the best – and that combination can unfortunately create its own problems, if you let it. In today’s society, there is an overload of news – but too much news can create even more uncertainty, so having the ability to work out what really matters to you is Theimportant.keypoints farmers need to get in order include cash ow requirements, so remembering that contract payment terms may vary is key. Plus, any storage or logistical restrictions, remembering your Red Tractor storage status plus your ability or desire to walk and maintain stored crops; and nally, knowing the real quality of your harvested grain and how much it cost to grow. With those key bits of information, you should be able to plan; and so, decision making should be easier. Similarly, if you want to trade grain forward for subsequent years, you need to be aware of your average farm yields and be con dent in your ability to grow the required crop quality. More importantly, what happens contractually if things don’t go to plan? The more information you have about your farm and grain, the easier it gets and the better the relationship with your trading partner, or the easier it is for all parties.

Fertiliser matters AN production has signi cantly reduced across Europe as gas prices remain high, resulting in concerns over supply, comments Open eld’s fertiliser manager, Lucy Hassall. Due to a lack of available product, it is very unlikely there will be any weakening in price anytime soon; and despite AN currently being a more expensive option compared to other nitrogen sources, there are no signs of any Ureareductions.andinhibited urea grades have been by far the most competitive source of nitrogen of late, and many regular AN users have made a switch to these grades over the past few weeks. This has also been an opportunity to try an inhibited urea ahead of the new environmental standard which will be implemented next year. This will restrict the application window for untreated urea from 15th January to 31st March. Any urea-based fertilisers applied out of this date range, when the risk of ammonia emissions are at their highest, will need to be protected or inhibited. FG Fertiliser is important.

Ben Conway has recently returned from a trip to Vaderstad’s manufacturing facilities in Sweden. He says he was very impressed with the attention to detail, the continuous product developments and improvements carried out on all the company's previous products in the factory. For him, what really stood out was the intensive product testing carried out with the trial machines in a granite quarry. “When you see the machines being tested in extreme conditions it gives you every con dence in the product.

“This survey has demonstrated just how crucial it is for fruit and veg growers to have access to the workforce they need. Expanding the Seasonal Workers Scheme will play a vital role in enabling that access and ensuring we don’t see this devastating level of food waste next year.”

Trio of combines on demo at ‘Arrive and Drive’ day As harvest draws to a close across the south east, Tuckwells customers were given the opportunity to test-drive three combine models ready for next season on Wednesday 10th August at an Arrive and Drive Demo Day near Great Dunmow in Essex. The T560, T670 and S785 were all put through their paces across the 80-acre wheat eld by customers who travelled from Kent, Bedfordshire, and closer to home in Essex. Sam Body, demonstrator manager at Tuckwells, said: “We were really pleased to welcome customers over to Essex from across the southeast today. Having all the combines operating together gives a great opportunity for customers to drive them and compare the options across the range. One customer from Bedfordshire came along to drive the T560 and T670 ahead of a longer trial of the T670 on site at their farm.” For further information about the range of harvest equipment on o er from Tuckwells, www.tuckwells.com visit:

UK agricultural tractor registrations –July 2022 The number of agricultural tractors registered in the UK was once again below both a year before and the seasonal average in July. Supply chain challenges, which are leading to extended lead times, continue to constrain the number of machines being registered. The monthly total of 973 machines was just 5% fewer than in July 2021 but was 17% below the average seen in the previous ve years. The number of tractors registered in the year to date reached 7,393, 6% down on January to July 2021 but still slightly above the average for that part of the year.

Replacement cultivator for family farm Fee and Will Haag are pictured concluding a deal for a brand new Vaderstad Carrier 925 with Ben Conway of Ben Burgess, to replace their previous machine which the Haags say has carried out sterling work over the last nine seasons. The new disc cultivator will set to work on this autumn's cultivation program at ACJ Farms, covering two farms in mid and north Su olk. Will says he has remained with the Vaderstad brand, because he is impressed with the improvements made to the upgraded model, his previous satisfaction with the Vaderstad machines he operates, and the good residual value the Vaderstad brand retains.

A new NFU survey indicates that the 2022 fruit and vegetable harvest has been signi cantly impacted because there aren’t enough people to pick the crops. The survey results show that £22 million worth of fruit and vegetables has been wasted directly because of workforce shortages in the rst half of 2022 alone. As the survey represents around a third of the UK horticulture sector, the NFU estimates the overall value of food wasted accumulates to more than £60NFUmillion.deputy president Tom Bradshaw said: “It’s nothing short of a travesty that quality, nutritious food is being wasted at a time when families across the country are already struggling to make ends meet because of soaring living“Atcosts. thesame time, the prolonged dry weather and record temperatures have created a really challenging growing environment for our fruit and veg. Every crop is valuable – to the farm business and to the people whose plates they ll. We simply can’t a ord to be leaving food unpicked.

DormFresh technical manager, Ajay Jina says: “Its approval without restrictions means that growers will have an important new option in their toolbox for sprout control over a full storage season. This is an important step forward for the GB potato sector.”

With working demonstrations from manufacturers including: Amazone, Horsch, KRM, Kuhn, Kverneland, John Deere, McCormick, Ovlac, Sumo, Opico and Vaderstad, the day promises a real insight into professional crop establishment techniques.

Foliar fungicide gains approval for disease control in sugar beet Caligula, the foliar fungicide containing uopyram and prothioconazole from Bayer Crop Science, has been authorised for use in sugar beet. The news will be welcomed by growers given that this is the last season for Escolta (cyproconazole + tri oxystrobin) and the increasing need to achieve better control of the lateseason disease, Cercospora leaf

Applied as a hot fog, 1,4SIGHT does not just burn o the sprouts; it will stop their formation and put the tubers into a dormant state, he explains. “This results in less weight loss during storage, and potatoes come out of store looking almost the same as when they went in.”

The mandatory requirement for bird keepers to practice enhanced biosecurity to protect against avian in uenza was lifted on 16th August. The Avian In uenza Prevention Zone was introduced in November when there was a medium risk of AI for some poultry premises. The risk has now reduced to low for all poultry, and as a result the AIPZ will be lifted. Bird keepers are advised to continue using enhanced biosecurity at all times to prevent the risk of outbreaks. UK chief veterinary o cer Christine Middlemiss said: “Now we are in the summer months and experiencing temperatures,highertherisk to poultry has been reduced across Great Britain and so the time is right to lift the Avian In uenza Prevention Zone. “[...] However, there are still localised areas of risk as we have seen recently, and therefore it’s vital that everyone keeps biosecurity and cleanliness at the forefront of their minds to keep their ocksAllsafe.”poultry gatherings, including at fairs, shows and markets, remain banned, due to a large number of ocks mixing together and the risk posed by any infections spreading across the country.

Thespot.authorisation allows for a single application after 1st September at a maximum rate of 1.2-litres/ha. Bayer’s recommended rate is 1.0-litres/ha. A condition of the authorisation is that sugar beet tops treated with Caligula must be disposed of and not fed to livestock. Antonia Walker, Bayer root crop campaign manager, said the authorisation for Caligula will help growers protect yield potential. “Forthe 2022 season, the restriction of a single application after 1st September means that for the majority of growers Caligula will be the third and nal spray of the season. “Several years of trials demonstrate that Caligula o ers unrivalled protection against Cercospora leaf spot suggesting it will become the default choice for the third spray of the season. We are continuing to gather the data needed to support authorisation for two applications per crop.”

Mr Jina, who previously worked at Sutton Bridge Crop Storage Research (SBCSR), highlights that there is a wealth of independent data on the product, and also that it had been trialled there since 1999. Get up close to the latest crop establishment machinery and thinking Now in its 31st year, Tillage-Live, the national crop establishment demonstration, returns to Scotland next month. Organised by the Agricultural Engineers Association (AEA) on behalf of the industry, the event, which is taking place on Wednesday 28th September, is heading back across the Border to East Lothian in 2022 with the event being held at Dunbar. It will showcase leading machinery manufacturers with demonstrations of crop establishment technology including ploughs, cultivators, sprayers, conventional, strip tillage and direct drills. In the live demonstration arena there will be an opportunity to see machinery working not only in stubble but manufacturers will also get the chance to show o their machinery in several di erent cover crops. Once again, this area will also give visitors the chance to get up close and see a selection of sprayers which will also be running in this area throughout the day.

DMN sprout suppressant receives GB authorisation 1,4SIGHT (1,4-Dimethylnapthalene, or DMN), a sprout suppressant for stored potatoes, is now approved for use in GB, DormFresh has announced. DMN was rst discovered as a natural volatile given o by potatoes. It is suitable for both the fresh and the processing sector, in all storage types and conditions.

Included in the four awards categories for which the charity is shortlisted, is the highly sought-after ‘Charity of the Year 2022’ award. RABI chief executive, Alicia Chivers, is delighted that the work of the charity has been acknowledged alongside other such well-regarded charity and voluntary sector proudorganisations. “IamincrediblythatRABIhas been shortlisted for these four awards,” says Mrs Chivers. “As we continue to develop really ambitious initiatives to provide even better support for farming people, these nominations are a recognition of the talent, dedication and commitment of everyone at the charity. To be shortlisted, and stand shoulder-to-shoulder with charities such as the Alzheimer’s Society, Shelter and Tommy’s, demonstrates that RABI’s ground-breaking support services deserve to be celebrated, not just within the farming sector but on a national scale.” The awards ceremony takes place in London during September.

Mr Waltham has decided to take a eld-byeld approach to managing crops to solve a speci c problem eld rather than a farm-wide approach. This is particularly important when deciding how to manage land in those critical weeks between harvest and drilling. “A lot depends on what weeds you have. Black-grass and sterile brome tend to respond to very light cultivation such as a straw rake to encourage a chit to spray o . Wild oats are probably best left on the surface, burying means they’ll cause problems later on. “It’s all about a tailored approach. The most important thing is to ask what are you trying to achieve and how are you going to do it. This will be di erent depending on the eld, following crop and so on. I am expecting a higher number of second wheats this season, which isn’t a problem for weed control, but these elds are best drilled later.” FG than black-grass?

MoreRyegrass:troublesome

www.farmersguide.co.uk September 202212 Arable

In wheat crops, black-grass control is based on robust cultural controls and autumn chemistry. “We prefer to use residual type chemistry because the control is more consistent with fewer resistance problems than post-ems,” Mr Waltham continues.Lastseason, the standard pre-em has been Liberator + Proclus which is now in its second season. “I rst saw it at Agrovista’s Lamport site. You could see an improvement in control compared to other products, so I was keen to use it. So far it is working well, and farmers have generally been happy about the results.”

He also recognises the importance of using various modes of action in the programme. Many of his customers use Avadex (tri-allate), and he also recommends Octavian ( ufenacet + di ufenican + metribuzin) for autumn top ups which brings metribuzin into play.

Brome becoming more common In the South West, Agrovista agronomist Peter Waltham advises farmers against a range of weeds. “Black-grass is the main grassweed problem, but sterile brome, wild oats and ryegrass cause di culties too. Brome in particular, seems to be becoming a bit more common as direct drilling and no-till increase in popularity,” he comments.“Whenit comes to broad-leaf weeds, we see everything and anything. On the brashier clay soils, charlock, hemlock and cleavers are the main weeds. Poppies and cranesbill tend to cause more problems on the chalky soils in Wiltshire.”

ProCam agronomist Jonathan Guy advises farms across South Yorkshire. Both blackgrass and Italian ryegrass cause problems in his area, but on balance, ryegrass is more troublesome to control, he reckons. “A lot of ryegrass seems to be nigh on impossible to control in a cereal crop. Spring cropping is very e ective against high black-grass populations, but often not for ryegrass. It can still germinate and produce a large infestation in a spring barley crop,” comments Mr Guy. “Over the last few years, I have had resistance tests done on some di cult to control ryegrass across the county. Most samples came back showing RRR resistance ratings for contact-acting herbicides, and resistance to residual chemistry ufenacet and prosulfocarb too. This meant I had to look at something else to get good pre-em control of ryegrass. Darren Adkins of Bayer suggested using Proclus (aclonifen) in the mix with Liberator ( ufenacet + di ufenican) which had given good results on ryegrass in other parts of the country. “Autumn 2021 was my rst year using Proclus. The results overall have been good and it has certainly helped control ryegrass, but seedbed quality has also been really important in order to get the bene t. The ryegrass has to grow through a layer of aclonifen on the soil surface which means the ground needs to be even, without lots of clods and consolidated for maximum product e cacy. “Another thing to watch is heavy rainfall just after application. In general, I would say you have to be more careful than just using Liberator. Proclus is pre-em only, so the sprayer needs to be chasing the roller after the drill so that it is applied at the right time.” Good results So far, Mr Guy has not used Proclus against black-grass because cultural controls and existing autumn stacks and sequences are still working well. “I haven’t used it for this, but I know of people getting good results with it,” he explains. “For grassweeds, it is cultural control rst and out of the can last. Spring cropping and delayed drilling work for black-grass. To deal with ryegrass, I recommend paying attention to the stale seedbed. Create a stale seedbed as if you were sowing a grass ley, use a roller to consolidate and promote maximum germination before drilling. “It all works well in theory, but moisture levels can be a problem. Dry Septembers seem to be quite common, which means you must wait until rain for germination; however, once it starts raining in late September/early October, drilling starts and ryegrass ends up emerging with the crop – this is where the advice and the practicality break down. There’s no simple answer. Know what resistance levels you are dealing with, but have a back-up plan, to accommodate whatever the weather throws at you.”

As growers face an ever-reducing number of autumn herbicides in their crop protection toolbox, the importance of maintaining the currently available tools is critical. One key way of doing this is to ensure products are used in a way that is safe to the environment and the operator, whilst continuing to deliver e ective weed control. Gowan Crop Protection UK and Ireland business manager, Hank King, explains that, while most growers are familiar with an annual NSTS test for their sprayers and are very familiar with safe and responsible applications of liquid pesticides, there is arguably less awareness of the best use guidance for applications of granular pesticides.Consequently, for the last 10 years, Gowan has always advocated the importance of ensuring your granular Avadex Excel applicator is calibrated annually, and continues to provide blank ‘dummy granules’ for this purpose as the rst of several key steps needed to ensure that Avadex Excel granules are utilised safely and e ectively. “It is also important to remember that Avadex Excel 15G granules need to be applied in accordance with the label, and that means ensuring that all sta applying the product use the appropriate personal protective equipment, are appropriately trained and therefore hold the necessary PA4G certi cation, which is something that can be easily overlooked if one is not careful,” Mr King continues. In holding this certi cation, those applying Avadex Excel 15G will be aware of the importance to apply the product whilst driving at the appropriate speeds and applying it only when the ground and weather conditions are suitable. “Those carrying out applications should always be cognisant of the fact that if it is too windy to apply a liquid herbicide it is likely to be too windy to apply Avadex Excel 15G,” explains Mr King. While it may seem obvious and important to triple rinse a liquid pesticide can, it is equally important to ensure that Avadex Excel bags are completely emptied to avoid the risk of any remaining product ending up in the wrong place. Empty bags should then be folded and safely disposed of, remembering that if you have any spills no matter how small they should be swept up carefully. Any growers needing any further information or some dummy granules for calibration are invited to get in touch via the Avadex website www.avadex.co.uk. Mr King says the Gowan UK team would be delighted to help.

This, combined with the attractive price of oilseed rape, will mean a signi cant number of farmers will return to the crop this year.

Farmers Guide asked Zach Reilly, a senior consultant with SAC Consulting specialising in soil management and crop production advice, and the lead facilitator for the Farming for a Better Climate project with the Soil Regenerative Agriculture Group, to share his tips for grassweed control in non-inversion cultivation systems. rotations (barley, wheat, and oats) are interjected by break crops provide an opportunity to use di erent chemistry, but also di erent growth patterns so that cultural control can be used. In reduced tillage systems, potatoes are often removed from the rotation due to the level of cultivation required, so ensuring that this break crop is replaced is very important. The Soil Regenerative Agriculture Group has been trying di erent crops for the past three years, and has had success with oilseed rape, spring beans and winter beans. Alongside break crops, sequencing of cereal crops can also aid, or hinder grassweed control. Oats and barley are more di cult than wheat to selectively terminate grassweeds, so thinking about the order these crops are grown can help. The group have found that it is very di cult to remove wheat from a crop of oats, so avoiding wheat as a prior crop to oats is prudent in reduced tillage systems. Vary the chemistry Using a variety of chemical controls is a key step to controlling grassweeds. The Soil Regenerative Agriculture Group has found that the best control is gained using a pre-emergence herbicide, targeting grassweeds as they emerge. However, it is also important to use a variety of chemistry to select grassweeds out from a growing crop, especially for grasses which emerge in the spring or have a short life cycle. Ensuring that chemistry is varied and targeting weeds while they are small to ensure that they are susceptible are important steps; this will also help to prevent resistance building up in weed populations. The group has also found that there is a di erence in grassweed emergence between strip tillage and direct drilling. Direct drilling usually disturbs less soil, which results in a reduced level of grassweed chitting; however, this method of establishment relies on a well-structured soil to ensure crop success. Alternative methods of grassweed control, perhaps less suited to northern conditions, include delaying the sowing date to provide a stale seed bed. Although this method is possible, it relies on the early harvest and late sowing of crops which can prove challenging in the northern climate.

Grassweeds can soon become problematic under reduced tillage systems, especially where continuous cereals are grown. The Soil Regenerative Agriculture Group – ve farmers working together to establish how best to support, enhance and protect their farm soils, as part of the Farming for a Better Climate project – recently visited a range of farms in Cambridgeshire and Su olk, to nd out more about how to stay on top of grassweeds in an arable rotation. Although the grassweed species vary, management principles remain constant and are explained in the following points.

Crop rotation A key to managing most weed, pest or disease problems is crop rotation; however, this is particularly important when controlling grassweeds. Ensuring that the cereals which dominate crop

A crucial rst step to managing grassweeds is to know which weeds you are dealing with, and what their life cycle is. In reduced tillage systems in Scotland, two of the main issues can be annual meadow grass and barren brome, but perennial and Italian ryegrasses can also be problematic on mixed livestock farms. The methods used to control these weeds di er, due to their di erent growth patterns: Annual meadow grass (AMG): This grass is found across the country and is recognised by its light green, short and tufted appearance. It poses little threat to crop yields, however, it can delay ripening and interfere with harvest. AMG has a short lifecycle of only six weeks; because of this it is often seen at various stages of its lifecycle in spring and winter crops. Control relies on the use of pre-emergence herbicides and glyphosate to tidy stubbles in cereal crops. Barren brome: Often found where winter cropping dominates, barren brome usually creeps in from the hedges and margins at the sides of elds. It is easily recognisable due to its purple tinted leaves and drooping ower head. As barren brome does not germinate from a depth of over 10cm, ploughing has been a major part of its control to date. However, in a reduced tillage system, leaving the seeds on the surface where light aids germination can allow for the weed to be sprayed o prior to planting creating a stale seed bed.

• Where shepherd’s purse and/ or cleavers are predicted, a robust pre-emergence treatment – based on metazachlor – is required. Rapeseed must be well covered by soil to a depth of 15mm

Herbicides form a large part, typically 20–30%, of the variable costs associated with producing a crop. With the need to consider herbicide-resistance risks too, it is important to target each spray required. Spray timing and herbicide resistance

Mixtures (several products applied together) or sequencing/stacking (several products applied in close succession) are more e ective at controlling grass weed populations than individual products. Preemergence options are less a ected by resistance and should form a key part of a cereal herbicide programme. Oilseed rape herbicides Spring herbicide options are limited in oilseed rape and weed control decisions need to be made prior to drilling. Establishment methods and weeds present a ect control options:

• Fine sprays

However, faster forward speeds and wider booms may require increased boom height. This increases the risk of drift, as does spraying reduced volumes through smaller-sized, conventional nozzles. Some horizontal movement of droplets is necessary to ensure adequate deposition on small grass weeds. Angling nozzles is one way to create horizontal velocities, which increases active ingredient deposition on small vertical targets. For many herbicides, nerquality sprays are more reliable than coarser sprays. Often, air-induction nozzles giving the smallest droplet sizes perform as well as medium- ne conventional sprays. Larger weeds are more suitable for treatment with air-induction nozzles, particularly those giving the smallest droplet sizes, which can still signi cantly reduce drift compared with conventional nozzles.

In contrast, Crusoe’s yellow rust resistance score remains at 9. This strong yellow rust resistance had been passed on through Limagrain’s breeding programme to other varieties, such as LG Detroit, which was the only Group 2 wheat to o er orange wheat blossom midge (OWBM) resistance, alongside sti straw and good grain quality, with similar performance to Crusoe in some“Midgemills.

This autumn will be his rst year direct drilling, so he was particularly interested to see which varieties might suit that system.

resistance is a fantastic trait that we know is e ective, with no yield

“Don’t look at any one aspect in isolation; mitigating risk has got to be based on whole-farm factors.”

Mr Mahony farms around 220ha of owned and contracted land near Rattlesden, south of Woolpit, growing 35ha of LG Skyscraper, alongside Gleam, LG Mountain winter barley and sugar beet, on mainly clay loam soils.

Using variety choice to manage on-farm risk should be a top priority for growers when nalising variety choices for the coming season, according to breeder Limagrain UK.

“The key is to identify your hopes and expectations for 12 months’ time and plan variety choices depending on what you want to achieve.”

“On the whole, higher-yielding varieties are generally getting taller, and we nd these have better resilience in droughty situations, although growers need to manage them properly through the season.” Safe option For those growing milling wheats, Mr Wilkinson said Crusoe remained the safe option from a quality perspective, given its stable Hagberg, high inherent protein content and proven farm and end user performance, during more than a decade on the Recommended List. He acknowledged growers should be mindful of brown rust risk, but said this was generally easier to control than yellow rust, which was a much greater threat in several other varieties. de cit. If you’re going to push a Group 2 type variety for milling potential, then this is the one I’d go for.”

Among the increasingly crowded Group 3 sector, Mr Wilkinson picked out LG Astronomer as being an “allround safe package”, that combined excellent grain quality with robust disease resistance and other good agronomics that would help manage risk on Importantly,farm. its three-way parentage of (Cougar x Leeds) x Britannia, has proven to be far more robust than other varieties against the Cougar Septoria strains seen last season, resulting in it remaining one of the best Group 3s for septoria resistance on the RL.

LG Typhoon’s strong genetics could buy useful exibility around key spray timings, and potentially allow for some savings depending on disease pressure, he said. “The variety suits earlier drilling situations due to its spring growth habit, and is rated +2 for maturity, so it’s well worth investing in the T3.”

Variety choice is central to risk management

“LG Astronomer likes being drilled a bit earlier and generally needs decent bodied land to get the best out of the variety. The biscuit premium might not be as attractive as that from Group 2s, but with LG Astronomer, it’s one that can be achieved with no extra agronomic input required.”

Local trials inform decisions

“Big National Trials have less relevance to what’s going on at our farm, whereas seeing how a range of varieties fare in our soil type and growing conditions is far more useful. Plus, we also value being able to talk to the breeders and get their opinions on things like drilling date or optimum seed“We’verate.

Yield results from local trials (treated and untreated), grain quality suitability for di erent end markets, fungicide response, growth habit in autumn and spring, and other agronomic traits, were all important factors to consider, Jonathan Payne of Nickerson Seeds added.

Speaking at a recent variety demonstration at the Limagrain Woolpit site in Su olk, arable technical specialist, Liam Wilkinson, urged growers to take a whole-farm approach to risk management when deciding what to grow. There were many ways that varieties could be used to manage risk, from selecting those with di erent maturities to mitigate the impact of unsettled weather around harvest, to choosing varieties with strong disease resistance scores based on a diverse genetic background, he said.

Drought risk After another dry spring and early summer, drought risk was once again top of many growers’ minds, Mr Wilkinson noted. “For drought-prone sites, generally you need a taller variety which is quick to get going in the spring, combined with early maturity and good grain quality, such as LG Skyscraper.”

The Group 4 variety LG Typhoon was another new variety that ticked a lot of boxes for managing risk, Mr Wilkinson said. It combines high yield potential with excellent disease resistance, sti straw and OWBM resistance.“Typhoon’s septoria resistance comes from Irish parentage and is one of the highest scores available on the RL. It also has the stacked genes for yellow rust resistance, using the most robust genetics we’ve got. There’s been a lot of demand for it already, particularly in the West.”

Su olk grower Peter Mahony was one of several farmers who valued the bene ts of being able to see how varieties performed in local conditions, rather than having to rely on National Trials information.

been growing Limagrain varieties for many years,” he added. “Knowing they’ve been bred just down the road from us gives us con dence that they should be well-suited to our growing conditions on the farm.”

“The type of drilling system you use, whether that’s wide or narrow rows, may be something else that a ects the most suitable variety to choose.”Avariety like RL Candidate LG Redwald, for example, o ers huge biomass and tillering capacity, making it well suited to wide row direct drilling or min-till systems, using lower seed rates.The variety o ers a yield potential of 106%, but can also be used for whole-crop forage, given the large biomass potential. This could allow ground to be cleared early, or be part of a grassweed control strategy.

Growers often react to stressed crops when they see signs in the eld – however, this is often too late, and as a result there will be a cost to yield potential. Afterall, as the old adage says – prevention is better thanPredictingcure. stress is di cult, as it comes in many forms including heat, cold, wet, dry, compaction, poor nutrient availability, to name but a few. But if you expect stress, whatever the cause, much can be done to mitigate it. Roots are the engine room for any crop, so it’s crucial to provide the best conditions for early vigorous root development. Poor root systems will guarantee a stress situation at some point and result in disappointing yields come harvest time.Healthy, well-developed roots dissipate water in a wet period and search out water when dry. Roots also emit exudates (proteins and chemical signals) that trigger responses in the soil environment – releasing nutrients and activating fungi and soil microbes.So,what can growers do to help crops establish well and produce vigorous root systems? There are many seed, soil and foliar treatments that claim to increase root development – in fact, it’s a bit of a mine eld. Tricet UK has spent many years trialling Pro-Soil, which is a soil nutrient formulation designed to feed the soil and enhance microbial activity. This provides the conditions for increased root development in length and total mass. Over ve years, Tricet has assessed root development and early bio-mass in cereals, legumes and root crops and has consistently found increased root and bio-mass, regardless of soil type. further information, vist www.tricetuk.com FG UK Ltd southern regional director, John

Transitioning to strip seeding While people go into direct drilling or direct strip seeding purely to save money, this was not Mr Turnbull’s main objective. Primarily, the bene ts of direct strip seeding to soil ecology were what drove him down that path. There are several important aspects to appreciate when strip seeding, one of them being attention to detail when it comes to stubble hygiene and management. The potential for volunteer cereals in the next cereal crop is ever present, especially if stubble management is

Mr Turnbull says ploughing was a big mistake, because it brought a huge bank of weed seeds up from depth and took the next two years to clean up. “I also noticed that, when we drilled directly on unploughed land, it left barely a mark – whereas the ploughed land was badly rutted, due to a wet harvest, creating soil damage which had to be recti ed. That was when we stopped ploughing and went all-in on the Claydon approach. “Our largest eld is 50ha, and had a legacy of light black-grass from years of conventional cultivations. I have Claydon-drilled it in December for each of the last four years without any problems, and the land has become so supportive that travelling on it has never been an issue – even late in the year. The black-grass has completely disappeared,” he says. Nutrient leaching is a potential problem on the very free-draining soils, so Mr Turnbull grows 100 acres of multi-species cover and catch crops to maintain ground cover over winter in land destined for spring crops. “To maximise their potential, they must be drilled correctly rather than being muddled in, so the Claydon drill’s A-share creates a good tilth and achieves the best germination. We have also reintroduced up to 500 sheep on our arable land to help with carbon sequestration,” he explains.

Having heard a lot of good things about Claydon Opti-Till from speaking to various owners on the phone, Mr Turnbull visited six farms in the area which were using it to establish crops and on di erent soil types. These included one with the same type of land. All were happy with it and after discussing the advantages with Wold Newton Grange’s owner, Christine Mason, he was given the green light to look for a Claydon drill. “Our 4.8m Hybrid was two years old when we bought it, and had been traded in against a new trailed Claydon Hybrid drill,” Mr Turnbull explains. “Initially, I adopted a 50:50 approach to compare our conventional system with Claydon Opti-Till. The loss of our ploughman earlier that year put pressure on the labour situation and time, so the ratio turned out to be 80:20 in favour of the Claydon, which performed well from the “Thestart. rst year was very dry, but the drill’s leading tines broke the soil and seed went into moisture, so it got o to a ying start and yielded well. Although time and costs have been massively reduced, yields are on a par with conventional establishment, 12–13t/ha for winter wheat, which we grow alongside winter barley, winter oilseed rape and vining peas. “We continued to compare our conventional approach with the Claydon System in two elds with similar soil. Analysis by SOYL con rmed that after two years of using Opti-Till, black-grass had been reduced to a level at which it could be hand rogued. In the third year we continued to use the Claydon System in one eld and ploughed the other to compare the two methods.”

“As farmers, our aim should be to enhance levels of soil ecology rather than simply preserving them. Retaining organic matter through the use of non-inversion techniques is fundamental to that objective,” Wayne Turnbull states. Manager of R. H. Mason’s mixed enterprise near Dri eld, he decided ve years ago that the best way to improve the situation was to stop all heavy cultivations on the 400ha of Yorkshire Wold over chalk land at Wold Newton Grange.“Our 100 suckler cows do not put enough organic matter into the soils to raise levels signi cantly. We have about 20cm of soil before hitting chalk, so ploughing made no sense to me,” says Mr Turnbull, who grew up on his parents’ farm and served 12 years in the military before returning to a life on the land. “I worked here for four years before being appointed farm manager in 2016, and always felt that our approach to crop establishment needed to change. A key goal was to improve the soils, which meant working them less, as well as reducing the time and cost involved in establishing crops. Labour is also a big issue, because fewer people seem to want to work and even less want to work on farms, so that was another priority.”

No shortage of doubters When Mr Turnbull was thinking of changing to the Claydon Opti-Till direct strip seeding system, he says many people had an opinion. Comments ranged from “You won’t be able to go when it is wet”, to “You’ll get a lot of weed issues”, but none had tried it for themselves, so he says they were in no position to judge. His counter argument was that, if ploughing is the ultimate way to control weeds, why after centuries of using it are there any left in the soil, and why do they remain a perennial challenge? “Rather than invert the soil and mix weed seeds throughout the pro le, I felt it would be best to con ne them to a shallow layer close to the surface and progressively reduce their numbers by chemical and mechanical means.”

Improving soil ecology is the goal for Yorkshire mixed farm

Boosting soil ecology was the primary reason R. H. Mason in Yorkshire changed from conventional plough-based crop establishment to direct strip seeding. Five years’ experience has shown that the system has numerous other bene ts, including massive labour, time, and cost savings.

“ Analysis by SOYL con rmed that after two years of using black-grassOpti-Till,hadbeenreducedtoalevelatwhichitcouldbehandrogued.

not completed, so it is not as simple as just going straight into stubbles with the drill. Rolling for consolidation on the small amount of soil that has been moved is important and a key operation in the system. Mr Turnbull comments: “Our 7.5m Claydon Straw Harrow is a key part of that process. We use it immediately after our Claas Lexion has nished harvesting the crop and cereal straw has been baled for our cattle. We like to leave a longer stubble, because this provides more food for the worms over winter, helps to discourage pigeons which do not like landing on it, and creates a microclimate that helps to protect the emerging crop from cold winds o the North Sea which are a feature of this area. “The Straw Harrow helps to spread loose straw, chit volunteers and pull out any weeds that are growing, as well as killing slugs and destroying their eggs. This process is carried out two or three times prior to drilling. “The Claydon Straw Harrow and drill are used behind a John Deere 6250R which operates at 1,400rpm. Our 4.8m drill will cover 4–5ha/hr at a sensible forward speed and, by not cultivating land before drilling, we eliminate weather risk. The total amount of fuel used to establish crops can be as little as 13 litres/ha; a massive reduction compared with our previous approach. With fuel prices where they are now, that is a signi cant cost saving. “Soil ecology has bene tted enormously from the change to direct strip seeding, the number of worm casts on the soil surface is phenomenal and surface drainage is much improved. There is no need to dig a trench to see the worms, because any root pulled from the ground will be covered in them. They are always working to improve the soil and much cheaper than wearing metal.” FG This DK Extremus winter oilseed rape, photographed at the end of February, was drilled with a companion crop of berseem clover, fenugreek, and buckwheat.

With a little help from his son Amos, Wayne Turnbull checks how deep the leading tine is operating while drilling rst wheats for 2022 harvest into stubble left by the previous crop of oilseed rape.

Arable Mitigating slug activity in young crops

A key step towards mitigating slug activity is to understand where, when and to what extent slugs are causing a problem by monitoring populations through the use of slugThetrapping.besttime to assess slug populations is when the weather is mild and soil is damp, with the most e ective method being to use refuge traps: each trap or shelter should consist of a tile, hardboard sheet or 25-30cm plant pot saucer, which will provide a refuge underneath which slugs can gather. Each trap should be baited with a suitable food source (two heaped teaspoonfuls of chicken layer’s mash is recommended), but it is important not to use slug pellets for this Slugpurpose.pelletsshould only be applied once populations have reached threshold. The traps allow free movement of slugs which are more likely to visit in mild and moist night-time conditions and stay until the following morning when they can be counted. In each eld, nine traps (13 in elds >20ha) should be set out in a W pattern, with the traps concentrated in areas known to su er damage. The thresholds in the table below indicate a risk when soil and weather conditions favour slug activity. When, and only when these thresholds have been reached should a suitable molluscicide, such as Gusto IRON be applied. Gusto IRON is a ready-to-use, pelleted bait containing 2.94% w/w anhydrous ferric phosphate. It is approved for use in a range of agricultural and horticultural crops and o ers the following key bene ts:

• Uniform pellet size and density for accurate spreading to wide working widths

• Optimum baiting points of 45 pellets per m 2 when applied at 5kg/ha.

Fully stocked for this year’s harvest

After experiencing an incredibly hot and dry summer, many farmers have decided to bring or have already brought their crops in a little earlier than usual. With this comes the need for adequate storage conditions within the grain store. It’s important to begin the cooling process as soon as the grain comes into the store to stop an infestation of mites and insects from breeding and ultimately spoiling the product. With the adverse weather experienced this summer, the demand for Cooling Fans and Poly Pedestals has increased dramatically. As such, the team at Plug&Cool says it has been working hard to ful l orders and maintain good stock levels. Plug&Cool managing director, Matthew Gibbons commented: “We want to assure farmers across the country that we are the largest stockists of grain fans and pedestals and have plenty available for this year’s harvest. Despite being busier than usual due to the warmer weather, we also have large stocks of airspears and airspear fans available for next-day delivery.” As energy bills continue to rise, farmers are looking for ways to reduce consumption. The demand for the Multi-Zone control panel has increased and the electrical engineers at Plug&Cool have been busier than usual. Mr Gibbons added: “With such a hot summer and the rise in energy bills, we knew that we would have to make sure we had good stock quantities. Our electrical engineers have been busy working on control panels throughout the year, so we are fully prepared.”

The new award, organised by BASF, aims to recognise those farmers who are not only working closely to improve on-farm productivity in tandem with increased biodiversity, but those who go the extra mile to build strong community partnerships. Mr Chappell, of Gander Farm, (pictured on the left) was joined in the nal two by arable and beef farmer Guy Prudom of North elds Farm (on the right), in North Yorkshire, and both nalists attended the awards ceremony which coincided with a special 20-year celebration of the ongoing partnership between BASF and Rawcli e Bridge Farm, where they have been building on biodiversity and advocacy work over the past two decades.Onwinning the award, Colin Chappell said: “I am unusually lost for words. I know some of the people who applied for this award and to have pipped them all is just incredulous. It was an honour to have been in the nal two with Guy and as soon as harvest is over, I want to go and see his farm and see what I can learn from Commentinghim.” on the future of sustainability in farming, he added: “We need to have a conversation about sustainably producing food, whilst also caring for the environment and the water and the people around us – that is what it is all about.

Farmer judge Richard Hinchli e of Dyke House Farm explained that when he was visiting the farms, he was looking for three core objectives – people, pro t and planet. “We had two fantastic nalists but a really special winner,” he said. “The thing that really impressed me about Colin’s setup, is what he did with some more economically deprived children from the local area, bringing them on farm and engaging them about agriculture and where their food comes from, and you could really see the passion he had for this,” he continued, adding that the judges were impressed by the mini classroom Colin has built on his farm for local schoolFellowvisits.judge and head of Farm491, Sarah Carr added: “What was really striking from all the applications was that sustainability means something di erent to everybody and I don’t think you can put one de nition to it. But what placed Guy and Colin above the rest, was that it is not just about pro t or biodiversity, but also about community. It is the social aspect, engaging with schools and hiring local apprentices, the circular economy is what matters and that is why both their applications really stood out.”

Omnia Digital Farming’s newly launched Business Performance module uses farm data to cost out a range of potential cropping and machinery scenarios in terms of both nancial and CO2 equivalent performance.

Never before has British farming been under as much pressure to manage output in terms of production and emissions, whilst also remaining nancially and environmentally sustainable. However, at the same time, planning a rotation is complicatedmorethan ever.

“There are several reasons for this, says Hutchinsons farm business consultant, Will Foyle (pictured). “The economics of di erent crops has changed in response to fertiliser requirements. There is also a greater demand for oilseeds – all of which means rotations are being analysed more closely than ever before.

“As we are well aware, this comes at a time when subsidies are reducing and there is a closer focus on increasing costs such as fuel and fertiliser.“Currently demand for land use is strong, such as for short-term lets for roots, vegetables, maize and rye. Opportunities for third party payments from water companies funding cover cropping, the emergence of markets for biodiversity net gain and the impact of carbon are also contributing to both short- and long-term changes in cropping that need to be assessed.” All-in-all, it’s a really confusing picture, adds Mr Foyle. “How easy is it to look at the implications of buying a new drill on xed costs? What is the real di erence in costs and carbon if land is taken out of production and replaced with environmental schemes? How will the bottom line be a ected if potatoes are dropped from the rotation? “These are questions that are being regularly asked, but until now, have not been possible to model within a precision farming system using real and accurate farm data,” he points out. As with all developments within Omnia, the data is visualised through several layers or maps, making it straightforward and user-friendly. For each crop, it is possible to build in variable costs and operations, or pull in those already de ned in the virtual machinery shed within the Field Performance module, and then add in the Income,rotation.variable costs, gross margin, xed costs, net margin and tCO2e are calculated per hectare, as well as over the year. Di erent cropping or machinery scenarios can be run alongside each other. Mr Foyle uses the Business Performance module to look at the implications of moving from a tillagetype disc drill to a direct drill across a ve-year rotation. “By inputting income, variable costs gross margin and xed costs it shows that despite income, variable costs and gross margin remaining the same over the year, xed costs decrease using the direct drill from 27% to 22%, as a percentage of output. Overall tCO2e is also reduced. “Overall, net margin increases by £83/ha or “Another£25,908/year.”scenariocould be to assume crop rotation and output remains the same, but with di erent yield penalties applied.

“In short, it’s possible using the Business Performance module to cost out any range of scenario’s in terms of pounds and carbon, before implementing them on farm. This really is an invaluable exercise for any grower to undertake before making changes to current farm rotations or machinery to make the right decisions,” concludes Mr Foyle. FG companies funding cover need to be assessed.”

While spray insulation has many bene ts, TAG Insulation says using a closed cell insulation which adheres to any surface, can give a roof a new lease of life by increasing stabilisation, weatherproo ng the area, insulating the storage to prevent overheating, damp or overly cold temperatures. The other major factor is it can help extend the life of your roof, with a 25-year manufacturer's guarantee, which the company claims can help you save thousands compared to the cost of replacement – making it “a perfect solution for every aging or damaged roof”.The bene ts of this insulation versus others are that it adheres to every surface at every angle, giving a complete protective layer of insulation against all the issues mentioned above. Other insulation methods can have a much tougher time as they simply don't last while being so e ective against these issues – in fact, the company suggests that most cannot do what TAG's can provide. And once it's installed you don't have to worry for 25 years, with the warranty o ering reassurance that it will be as e ective after many years as it was on day one. Some of the other bene ts of the TAG Insulation system include: a stable temperature all year round, preventing leaks of water, air and ingress water. It helps deaden sound, provides stabilisation, is a class 1 re retardant, and promises massive savings on energy loss, according to TAG. In addition, it brightens the sprayed area, provides asbestos containment, prevents further deterioration of the roof, and seals holes, gaps and cracks.

German press event launches expanded ranges and new products

Claas has expanded its green harvest product line-up with a new mower and new balers, and has uprated its top-end Lexion combines with a new cab, more power and additional features. The new Cemis 1200 touch terminal, which was featured by Farmers Guide earlier this year, has been formally launched and is now available to order.Theevent also celebrated 25 years of Claas Xerion tractors, and a highlight was seeing an original Xerion 3000 working with an early Quadrant baler operating alongside the latest commemorative edition Xerion 5000 with the latest addition to the Quadrant baler range. Seeing is believeing Speaking at the event, Cathrina ClaasMuehlhaeuser told Farmers Guide that it was great to see everyone together again after three long years apart due to Covid. “There have been huge challenges during the past three years, but we have found solutions for our customers and for Claas,” she said. “We have continued to develop our product ranges, and the results of our e orts can be seen in the eld today.” Cathrina is Claas chairwoman of the supervisory board and chairwoman of the supervisory committee. Combine news Three years after the current line-up of top-end Lexion models was launched, the range gains a new cab – seen last year on new mid-size Trion models. The new cab provides extra space around the operator’s head and feet, and there is also an optional leather seat which rotates up to 30 degrees to each side. New footrests add operator comfort. Vision is improved due to new, narrower side pillars, a wider front screen and larger side windows. There is a 360-degree wiper. Set-up and monitoring are through a larger 12in Cebis touch terminal with an improved display which is easier to read in a range of light conditions. The display layout can be set up to suit the user’s preference. Optional Cemos Dialog and Cemos Automatic can also be added. Control is by touch as well as a rotary/push control, and all threshing and cleaning settings can also be accessed directly using buttons on the right-hand control armrest.

The main CMotion joystick operates the main functions and allows preferred settings to be saved.Options include a 30-litre cool box and a 360-degree lighting pack as well as a premium media system. For automatic steering through GPS Pilot, the new Cemis 1200 terminal is used. As well as providing guidance control, the terminal enables online task Dynamicdocumentation.steeringisanew option – reducing the steering wheel turns by 40%. A ‘slow retraction’ feature for the feed reverser will be a new option for 2023 models. After reversing, the rotation direction of the reversing motor can be reversed at the touch of a button, allowing the crop to be passed slowly to the threshing mechanism and reducing peak loads.

A press event by Claas in northern Germany was used to announce and demonstrate an impressive line-up of new products. David Williams was there. Farmers Guide attended a Claas product launch in northern Germany –where new and updated combines, forage products and handlers were displayed and demonstrated for the rst time.

Other Lexion upgrades include an 18,000-litre grain tank for Lexion 8800 models, matching the size of the Lexion 8900 model, and a 15,000-litre tank is also now available for the Lexion 8700. A pivoting spout is a new option for 330mm and 420mm unloading augers, providing precise grain stream control across a range up to 60cm. Extra automation Cemos Auto Header is new for Trion and Lexion models. Using the cab-roof mounted eld scanner to detect crop characteristics; it automatically adjusts the table length, reel height and horizontal reel position based on the crop height, helping to reduce operator fatigue.

Montana option Montana hillside versions of the latest-generation Lexion are available. Previously a very popular option for smaller models, its availability for Lexion models too adds performance for farms with hilly and undulating terrain. The Lexion 7700 hybrid and 5500 straw-walker models can have the slope compensation system, which adjusts for side slopes up to 18 degrees and inclines up to six degrees using hydraulic chassis adjustment.

Montana hill-side versions of Lexion combines will be available for the rst time next year. continued over…

theoretical 60mm chop length. The standard Pro rotor drop- oor can be lowered hydraulically to clear blockages at the push of a button from the tractor cab. Smart Density bale pressure control has been added. New control software optimises the baling process so that perfectly formed bales are produced even in di cult conditions in silage, and it also achieves higher density in the outer layers of the bales for extra weather protection. There is also the opportunity to accurately control the pressure of the inner layers – for example when baling hay. Easier roll changes are made possible by a new mounting position – 25cm lower than before. A new net brake works independently of the roll diameter providing constant net tension, and a new feed plate and knife release ensure troublefree tying. There are new larger tyres for ground protection and air brakes are an option. Control is through the latest Cemis 700 Isobus terminal.

A new front-mounted shredder is available for Quadrant 5200 and 5300 models. Bene ts include no excess stem lengths as the straw is chopped and not cut. Shearbar adjustment achieves the required chop quality. The belt-driven rotor has 88 oscillating knives. Two adjustable counter-blades each with 45 knives set the cut length. When the chopper is active the crop feeds directly to the rotor via the roller crop press of the pick-up. All Lexions gain a new cab with extra comfort and improved vision.

A new, heavier ywheel with an optimised spoke design increases the inertia for constant performance in uneven swaths. The new ywheel features on the Quadrant 5200 and 5300 models – and increases inertia by 46% on the Quadrant 5200 and 44% on the Quadrant 5300. An optional slip clutch protects the two models, as an alternative to standard shear-bolts.

New entry-level models

Extra engine power

New Lexion 8600 and Lexion 8600 Terra-Trac models have been added to the Lexion hybrid line-up. With a 1,700mm drum width and powered by MAN D26 6-cyl, 12.4-litre engines producing 549hp, the Lexion 8600 is positioned in the range immediately above the Lexion 7700 with a 1,420mm drum width. Dynamic Power adapts the engine output to match the conditions, reducing fuel consumption by 10% in the partial load range. The wheeled Lexion 8600 has a 12,500-litre grain tank and the Lexion 8600 Terra-Trac has a 13,500-litre version.

More power and improved torque characteristics have increased the performance of Lexion 8700 and 8800 models. The Lexion 8700 gains 40hp bringing the maximum output to 625hp, while the Lexion 8800 has an extra 47hp at 700hp. The Lexion 8800 power unit has been changed to a MAN D42 6-cyl – previously used in the larger Lexion 8900. The improved torque provides increased power reserves to maintain constant engine speeds in heavy conditions.

The new Variant 500 round baler line-up includes four models. The Variant 560 RC and 565 RF can create bales from 0.9m–1.6m diameter while the Variant 580 RC and 585 RF produce bales up to 1.8m.Variant 560 RF and 580 RF versions both feature a spiral feed rotor, while the Variant 565 RC and 585 RC both have a spiral Roto Cut fourstar cutting rotor. RC models also feature heavy-duty drive components, and a 17-knife cutter for a

Quadrants evolved A hydraulic drive option for the pick-up and Power Feeding System (PFS) has been added for Quadrant 5200 and 5300 models – allowing the user to set the ideal PFS feed roller speed relative to the constant speed of the ve-row pick-up.

Pre-chopper

Expert view Claas combine product specialist Rob Portman said that UK customers will appreciate the additional performance available for Lexion 8700 and 8800 models, as well as the addition of the wide-body Lexion 8600 as an entry to the Lexion hybrid range. “There is also an extra grate which adds separation capacity for the Lexion 8700, bringing it more into line with the larger Lexion 8800 and 8900,” he said. “And for those upgrading from previous Lexion 700-series machines, the new Lexion 8600 provides a gradual step. “The new Montana option will also be widely welcomed. The slope compensation system was available for Trion models when they were launched last year, and for larger Lexions with their extra performance, it o ers even bigger advantages.”Robsaidthat the adjustable auger ap option which was rst available last year for Trion models has been speci ed by most customers, and he expects it to prove equally popular for the Lexion range. The new Lexion cab o ering extra space and comfort plus improved visibility will also be regarded as a major bene t, he believes.

The new Disco 1010 rear mowers provide a wide 9.7 or 9.9m working width – set by selecting alternative mounting pin holes for each mower unit. Each unit has a 3.8m working width, giving a 9.7m total working width with a 3.0m front mower. Apart from the simple design and lower cost compared to the premium Disco 1100; advantages include a lighter weight of only 2,300kg, allowing use with smaller tractors.

Forage expert view Dean Cottey explained that UK dealers are delighted with the new products and updates. He believes that the Quadrant pre-chopper will have limited appeal for general users but satis es demand for the very ne chop required by poultry farms, and similar situations where ne chopped straw is needed for bedding.

Torion loaders are proving popular and almost 1,000 have been sold so far. There are three new mid-size models – the 1285, the 1611 and the 1611 P, all featuring newly developed Z-kinematics for more lifting power and breakout force. Smart loading modes ease operation and improve productivity. All three new models have extra power and uprated transmissions. The Torion 1285 with 157hp replaces the previous Torion 1177 and 1410 models with 137 and 165hp respectively, while the Torion 1611 has 207hp –23hp more than the Torion 1511 it replaces, and the Torion 1611 P has an increase of 45hp to 252hp.

Wide mower option

“The heavy ywheel for Quadrant 5200 and 5300 balers is a signi cant advantage in terms of improving performance – particularly in di cult working conditions,” he explained. “The updated square balers will appeal to users all over the UK, as will the new Variant round balers with their revised net tensioning system which will improve performance in silage and make net roll replacement easier.” FG

The 1611 P with extra drive torque and power has been designed especially for silage clamp use and similar demanding applications.

Upgraded loaders

Claas forage product specialist Dean Cottey said that the new mower will appeal to larger farms where grass is cut frequently and where there is no need for a conditioner, and it will be a popular high-output option for contractors, too.

Multiple locations for a job can now be speci ed, with instructions for each location provided by Google maps via a pin drop or farm address. Jobs can also be scheduled without allocating an operator, giving exibility to the team. Any operator can then start a job from a scheduled list when they are available. Time recordings have also been improved. When jobs are part completed and resumed later, the time recordings are separated with individual dates and times, making it easier to bill longer term jobs.

A signi cant bene t of the app is its integration with popular accounting platforms Quickbooks, Sage, and Xero. A further improvement means completed jobs can be approved for invoicing on the go via the mobile app, as well as on the desktop version. And nally, operators can now create and modify products, vehicles, and implements they’re using, as well as map elds directly in the app. Will Dunn, contractor and founder of Ag-drive, says the upgrades were made in response to user feedback, which is integral to ensuring the app continues to help contractors and farmers improve their e ciency and cashWillow.says: “The improvements to team jobs within Ag-drive will make a huge di erence to our users who run large teams of operators, where e cient management is critical. “With input costs rising rapidly across all areas of farming, keeping accurate records are essential, and the only way to do this is by going paperless. For contractors, the high cost of fuel means cash ows are strained more than ever. “Ag-drive is improving the way industry works by making every job accountable and traceable. Regular invoicing is more e cient than doing it a handful of times a year, and integrating Ag-drive with accounting packages takes away a lot of the hassle associated with traditional paper-based timesheet systems.” Digital timesheets are already the norm in many industries, and the farming sector is following suit. The Ag-drive app is available on both iPhone and Android smartphones and has been designed for simplicity to support all users.

The suction lling arm folds back along the side of the tank for transport, rather than obscuring the driver’s view. The tanker can also direct ll from a pipe, with an auto- lling sequence activated by external controls for convenience. Tyres to suit Standard tyres are 900/60R38, but the demonstration machine is on VF900/60R42.

Central tyre in ation is an option. Additional tyre options include narrow 480/65R42 Michelin SprayBib tted as duals – providing compatibility with 750mm row spacing for operating in maize.

Pictured with the new Vervaet Quad 550 are (l-r) J Riley marketing assistant Chris Lockwood, sales manager Matt Carse, and engineer and demonstrator Stephen Hastings. The Claas cab is spacious and comfortable, while visibility is excellent.

Vervaet UK importer J Riley expects a busy autumn touring the UK with its Vervaet Quad 550 4-wheel, self-propelled slurry applicator. David Williams saw it in action. “Our Hydro Trike three- and Hydro Trike XL vewheel applicators are proving popular, but some farmers prefer the layout of a four-wheel machine which allows wheel travel on existing tramlines,” explained J Riley sales manager Matt Carse. “This is why Vervaet developed the Quad, while incorporating proven features and technology from the existing models.” Unlimited torque Vervaet announced the Quad 550 last year, and there are already three customer-owned machines operating in the UK. A Volvo Penta 6-cyl, 550hp engine provides the power and a stepless hydromechanical transmission of Vervaet’s own design supplies power to the wheels through separate front and rear hydraulic gearbox units and Omsi mechanical axles. The drive management system automatically adjusts the oil ow to distribute the drive between the front and rear. Full power is available at any speed with no torque limitations, and the amount of power available in reserve is constantly displayed on the in-cab terminal. The cab is by Claas, and the terminal and control systems are all Vervaet’s own design. The machine o ers full compatibility with the John Deere HarvestSense NIR slurry nutrient sensor. Large tank, innovative design The tank capacity is 21m3, and an 8in suction system is standard, although the demonstration machine has the optional 10in system with a 12,000 litres/min pump and a turbo ller for a combined 13,500 litres/min lling rate. A Vervaet macerator is tted after the pump, so that liquids and sludge are pushed through, reducing the risk of blockage.Theinnovative tank design includes a tapered pro le to the front, allowing an excellent view back and along the sides from the operator’s seat.

The machine underside is completely at up to 60cm above the ground, to minimise damage to growing crops. Wide compatibility Cat 3 or Cat 4, 9t-capacity rear linkage is fitted with automatic pivoting to ensure accurate ground following for wider attachments. Fourpoint mounting provides implement tracking for operation in crab-steer mode which allows the wheels to maintain individual tracks and spread the load for operation on stubble or grass.The Vervaet demonstrator is the rst self-propelled machine tted with the latest Vogelsang 24m BlackBird dribble bar. The BlackBird bar is designed for maximum accuracy – and an innovative cantilever arrangement includes separate risers and separate pendulum compensation for each side arm. In theory, this could allow the machine to travel along the bottom of a narrow valley with an ascending surface on both sides, and the boom would adapt to follow the ground contours and maintain even trailing shoe pressure across the boom width. Support wheels provide height guidance and control the swing arms,

High-capacity applicator attracts interest from farmers and contractors and hydraulic pressure control provides adjustment of the working pressure on the wheels and skids. The 24m boom can fold for operation at 18m, providing versatility for contractors. It folds neatly down the sides of the Vervaet tanker for convenient transport.TheBlackBird dribble bar also comes with DropStop – which pivots the discharge boots upwards at the headlands and for transport to reduce risks of liquid spillage.

Norfolk farmer Charles Sa ell is impressed by the Vervaet’s design. a growing part of our business and we recently invested in a larger nurse tank to improve our work rates and e ciency. Expanding our contract slurry application service is something we are considering.”Charlestrialled the Vervaet Quad and was impressed. “It’s well thought out. We currently use an 18m dribble bar, but would consider upgrading to 24m or 32m, and if we were to invest in this sort of machine then the Vervaet makes a lot of sense. The company is local, and the back-up is good. It’s easy to use and operate, very straightforward and the cab is comfortable with good visibility which is important.” FG

Experienced farmer view Norfolk-based HC Beales & Co farms approximately 850ha of arable crops, including 240ha which is contract-farmed. A large part of the contracting operation is maize production, from planting to harvesting for local AD plants. “We apply a large volume of slurry on our own land and elsewhere,” explained managing partner Charles Sa ell. “Slurry applications are The Vervaet demonstrator is the rst self-propelled applicator tted with the new Vogelsang BlackBird 24m dribble bar.

minimum Shorter season – increased interest Matt said that attractions of the Vervaet Quad include very high output, superb working e ciency, and the ability to protect the land. “One of our users reported fuel use 20–30% lower compared to his previous competitor-brand machine which represents signi cant cost savings. Most customers investing in machines this size expect to replace them every three to ve years, and Vervaet has a reputation for high residual values which helps reduce costs of ownership. We also provide the Vervaet Rebuild scheme which includes a back to chassis restoration, after which used machines are sold with a generous warranty and they look and drive like new. “Shorter spreading windows are increasing interest in high capacity, self-propelled applicators, and we believe that the Quad design includes all the features professional farms and contractors need. We expect a busy autumn of demonstrations ahead of full availability of the new model next year.”

Farmers Guide enjoyed an early testdrive of Valtra’s new Q-series agship –the Q305.

September 2022 www.farmersguide.co.uk 53 Machinery

Valtra’s engine and transmission management system always selects the lowest possible engine revs for the application to achieve maximum fuel e ciency. Selectable ‘droop’ allows the operator to adjust the engine and transmission response to suit the task. Minimum droop means that the engine adjusts constantly to maintain pre-set revs or provide maximum power for the highest work rates, while increasing the droop means that in tougher conditions the engine revs will reduce temporarily – slightly reducing productivity, but saving fuel. The transmission has two ranges – eld work and transport. The transmission uses a combination of hydraulic and mechanical drive although, on the road, at higher transport speeds, power is transferred almost exclusively through the mechanical section for optimum e ciency. The maximum 50kph is achieved at just 1,500rpm.

An early opportunity to test-drive Valtra’s new Q-series tractors con rmed that the new models have what it takes to attract owners and users in this competitive market segment.

Flexible ballasting The new Q-series weighs in at only 9.2t unladen but a maximum gross weight of 16.0t provides plenty of scope for ballasting for demanding draft work, and also allows heavy loads to be transported legally. Unladen weight is split 60/40. Valtra claims class-leading ground clearance up to 60cm, making the new tractors particularly well suited for spreading and spraying in growing crops, as well as for forestry applications. The tractor’s smooth underside prevents snagging. Many Valtra Q-series tractors will spend a lot of time on transport operations, and a highly e cient braking system with six oil-immersed discs on the rear wheels is standard. There is a choice of bar or ange axles at the rear. Powerful hydraulics Maximum rear lift capacity is 10t and the optional integrated front linkage which includes concealed and protected hydraulic pipework lifts 4.8t. There are separate gearbox and Gap-filling model has what it takes to compete

The Q305 is an imposing tractor, but from the seat it feels nimble and compact. continued over…

Valtra announced limited details regarding the new Q-series during an online press event in late June. Just one early release agship Q305 visited the UK for a few days in late July, before travelling on to Europe for the start of a new model launch tour, and Farmers Guide caught up with it on a Lincolnshire farm. Filling a gap Very few details regarding the speci cation were given during the initial launch, but these have now been con rmed and are quite impressive. The Q-series lls the gap between current T-series and the most powerful S-series and includes ve models from 230–305hp. T-series models (155–271hp) have engines of 6.6 or 7.4 litres capacity and a 2,995mm wheelbase, and the Q-series shares a similar Agco Power 7.4-litre power unit but with upgrades, and has a longer 3,050mm wheelbase. By comparison – the largest S-series starts at 270hp (300hp with boost) and has a 3,105mm wheelbase. The Q-series engine has a relatively large displacement for its power output. Valtra’s EcoPower operating strategy reduces the revs by approximately 5% for work applications, contributing to a 15% reduction in fuel consumption. Only SCR (AdBlue) is needed to meet latest Stage 5 emission regulations – avoiding the need for Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR). A new cooling system has been developed especially for the Q-series, allowing a steeper angled engine hood and excellent forward vision from the seat. For the new tractor demonstration, current T-series and S-series models were parked alongside the new tractor, and the advantages of the new cooling pack design were immediately obvious. Intelligent boost A hydro-mechanical, two-speed CVT transmission is standard – shared with other brands in the Agco family. Valtra SigmaPower provides a 20hp boost for all models, except the agship Q305. Maximum power is at 1,850rpm and the power curve is at between 1,600–1,950rpm. Maximum (Max Power at 1,850r/min (Rated speed 1,950r/min) max Torque 1,500r/min) Model STD Boost torque is between 1,000–1,600rpm, ensuring smooth performance across a wide rev Maximumrange.speed is 40kph or 50kph, with 50kph achieved at only 1,450rpm. SigmaPower boost engages during transport operations at over 18kph, for PTO work, or when hydraulic ow demands exceed 30kW. The Q305 always has maximum power and torque, but maximum power engages gradually for transport tasks to ensure smooth operation and is available for stationary PTO applications too.

David Williams reports.

hydraulic oil reservoirs, and up to 75 litres can be drawn from the hydraulic system. Hydraulic oil ow rate is up to 200 litres per minute, and an optional Eco version with a secondary gear pump achieves maximum ow at only 1,650rpm for signi cant fuel savings.

The A-pillar display is large and well lit, and on the bright test drive day it was easy to read whether the sun was in front or behind. All the main operating information is displayed on the screen, and there is the option of displaying limited GPS-guidance information too. The SmartTouch armrest-mounted user interface allows convenient set-up of most of the tractor’s systems from the seat, implement control through Isobus, and more advanced GPSguidance tasks. The demonstration didn’t include an opportunity to try the new tractor for eld work, but previous experience of the similar T-series cab has proved the system to be very capable and user-friendly. Valtra Connect telemetry is standard – allowing authorised dealers to diagnose faults remotely and making it easier for owners and managers to check task progress and maintain accurate eld Mechanicalrecords.cabsuspension is standard and air suspension is an option. Air front axle suspension is also standard, and Valtra argues that using air rather than a hydraulic system means it is more responsive, especially on cold winter days when an oil-based system could be a ected by thicker oil viscosity. Demand for front loaders in this tractor size segment is growing, and Valtra o ers a selection of 12 loaders including parallel and tapered arms and various lift capacities and heights.

Comfortable work environment

Up to nine hydraulic valves can be tted – four at the front, and ve at the rear. Power Beyond is standard for all hydraulic packages, and a Hydraulic Assistant increases the engine revs when extra ow is needed. A Baseline valve package provides ow rates up to 120 litres, or an optional upgrade to four or ve Highline couplers accommodate ow rates of 140 litres each, with convenient lever-type hose and pressure release. Valtra senior product specialist, Seth Bradford, said that most UK buyers will specify the Highline upgrade. High spec PTO Two-speed 540/1,000 PTO is standard with additional 540 Eco and 1,000 Eco operating modes to reduce fuel use, operating noise, and wear and tear.

The test day also coincided with the UK’s record high temperatures this year – and even with bright sun and more than 40ºC outside, the cab remained comfortable and cool as cold air was blown through vents at waist height.

UK roadshowdemonstration Valtra’s European Q-series roadshow visits the UK in September and will provide an opportunity to view and test-drive the new tractors. Just check Valtra’s website to nd out when and where it will be in your area.

The cab is like the popular T-series – quiet, comfortable, and with an excellent view from the seat.

Low cost of ownership Engine oil changes are every 600 hours, and transmission oil is changed at 1,800 hours. Very few daily checks are needed and most just require a glance at a sight gauge. Valtra Connect allows remote fault diagnosis for reduced downtime, and a wide selection of precision farming aids are available to maximise productivity and operating accuracy.

The new CVT transmission is superb. It is smooth, extremely quiet, and easy to use. The operator just selects the required travel speed and the EcoPower engine and transmission management system selects the most e cient engine speed and transmission ratio to suit. The demonstration tractor had the largest 710/70R42 tyres at the rear and 600/70R30 at the front, but manoeuvrability was excellent. The Valtra’s design allows a tight 6.75m turning radius. For arable applications, selecting the most capable VF tyres and specifying Valtra’s optional central tyre in ation system will maximise work rates and operating e ciency while also protecting the ground. Overall, the Q-series is an attractive package with a quality feel, and it has everything it needs to compete with other brands in this popular size and power sector. With extended warranty and service packages allowing ownership costs to be xed, and back-up available through Valtra’s excellent dealer network there is very little not to like.

The cab is similar to the recently updated T-series, and the design is excellent. The ve steps have a generous slope angle; making it easier and safer to get in and out. The steering column moves forward at the touch of a foot pedal and there is plenty of clearance between the steering wheel and the seat. With most controls and displays moved to the A-pillar display the front console is very narrow, so there is plenty of space for the operator’s feet. The small, sporty steering wheel has a chunky rim which is comfortable to hold. There is a choice of three seats –including the premium Evolution with air suspension, automatic driver weight adjustment, and heating and cooling. The cab’s six-pillar design accommodates 6.5m2 of glass. Powerful air conditioning includes air distribution through 12 vents, including some at lower level allowing heated air to be blown towards the driver’s legs and feet, or cold air to be aimed towards the upper body and head. User-friendly controls

Smooth accurateandoperation

FG Valtra product specialist Seth Bradford (in the seat) with Valtra UK sales manager Alan Sanderson. “The new Q-series will open the door to many more farmers and contractors, and our dealers are looking forward to demonstrating the tractors this autumn at the Valtra roadshow,” explained Alan.

Test-drive and conclusion Parked beside the current smaller T-series and larger S-series models it was clear to see how the new Q-series ts into the line-up. From the seat, the view all around is exceptional for a tractor of this power and size. The narrow steering column makes it easy to keep an eye on the two front wheels and the view to the sides is excellent. Travelling through towns and negotiating heavy tra c wouldn’t be a problem. It’s a big tractor with a long wheelbase, but from the cab it feels compact, neat, and responsive. The ride quality is excellent and travelling at high speeds along an uneven farm track clearly demonstrated the bene ts of the axle, cab and seat air suspension tted to the test tractor.

The Hub’s biggest value for farmers, she believes, is being able to spot trends on their own farm, opening the door to conversations about improving herd health with their vet. In time it will also allow for benchmarking between farms which can be very powerful for driving change. On a wider scale, the data is important for providing evidence that the sectors are low users of antibiotics. The EU now requires member states to record antibiotic usage across foodproducing species; and although the UK’s pig and poultry sectors already do this, the Hub provides a platform for the ruminant sector to do the same. Although we are no longer in the EU, to maintain trade, we need to be open to sharing our results with the EU, Mrs Nevel said. Dr Gavin Morris, group animal welfare and veterinary manager at cattle and sheep processor Dunbia, said that while antibiotic use in UK livestock is believed to be low, we are not able to demonstrate this at farm level in England for cattle and sheep – or whether they are being usedDunbia’sresponsibly.UKcustomers, including retailers, the food service sector and wholesalers are all looking for that reassurance, he added. “With 16% of UK beef and 29% of sheep meat being exported this is also a huge issue for global markets and UK export potential and credibility. [...] We must stay ahead of the wider game if we want to ensure that beef and lamb continues to attract customers both in the UK andWithoutworldwide.”atool such as Medicine Hub, a much more complex and challenging system could be imposed, with individual AMU information having to be provided for each load, each time, he added. Although the focus is initially on antibiotics, the Hub has the capacity to be used as a full medicine book, recording and monitoring the use of other drugs on farm such as wormers and anti-inflammatories.

Online tool helps cattle and sheep farmers cut antibiotic use

Norbrook will be attending Wednesday 14th September 2022 Stand L30 in Ludlow Come and see how Norbrook can help the health of your herd.

Additionally, when Towcester Farm Vets began working with Mark ve years ago, the farm’s pneumonia vaccine was not working and there was strong use of antibiotics as a result. After changing the vaccine, pneumonia antibiotic use more or less stopped.Mark’s vet Els Lane, said analysing the data allows vets and farmers to see why antibiotics are being used, target improvements on problem areas such as lameness or pneumonia, and make informed choices or tweaks. Looking at the farm’s latest antibiotics report, there was a strong reduction in usage between 2020-2021.

Find out more To start using the Hub, AHDB recommends rst speaking to your vet. As farm data belongs to the farmer, you can either upload your own data, or give permission for your vet to do so.

On-farm experience Mark Jelley runs a 500-acre mixed farm with 95 head of suckler cows, nishing all calves on the farm to sell direct to abattoirs or a local box scheme. Mark was aware of the Hub through his work with the NFU and AHDB and as chair of the Cattle Antibiotic Guardian Group. Getting the farm involved required “fairly minimal” e ort from him, he said. After rst setting up an account around 18 months ago, he gave his veterinary practice consent to annually upload his sales data and created a link to the BCMS system so the Hub can pull his cattle population data across.Mark has worked closely with his vet for a number of years, since his area came under signi cant TB pressure. As a Red Tractor farm, they were already looking at antibiotic data, but the Hub presents it in a more user-friendly way, Mark said. It highlighted that the farm was using a lot of antibiotics for calves with naval infections due to inadequate pen hygiene. “I wouldn’t say it had gone unnoticed, but it’s a busy time of year, with a number of people giving these injections. It’s all recorded but when we looked back over the data we realised we were getting a bit of a pinch point toward the second half of the calving period.”

Northants beef farmer Mark Jelley has seen strong reduction in his farm’s use of antibiotics and been able to identify key herd health issues, with the help of his vet and the AHDB Medicine Hub. But the Hub could also o er wider bene ts to trade and the industry’s reputation. Sarah Kidby reports.

Fundraising will also be taking place during the event for the Brain Tumour Trust, in memory of Sue Cope, Holstein UK CEO and UKDD event director, who sadly passed away on 11th May 2022 after a short but courageous battle. Sue was instrumental in making UK Dairy Day happen each year since 2014. UK Dairy Day is an accredited event with Dairy Pro for three CPD points and BASIS for two CPD points.

Now in its eighth year, the free-to-attend UK Dairy Day is returning to the International Centre in Telford on 14th September – including panel discussions on sustainability, as well as The Cattle Show, practical demonstrations and knowledge sharing zone. Last year, UK Dairy Day was one of the rst events to take place following Covid-19 restrictions, attracting more than 7,000 visitors. It’s hoped visitor numbers will return to pre-Covid levels this year. There has so far been a record re-booking of trade stand space from existing as well as new exhibitors, who will feature across the extensive internal and external exhibition spaces, organisersExhibitorssay.include feed manufacturers, animal health suppliers, vets, milk buyers, dairy and farm equipment suppliers – plus professional service providers and charities. UK Dairy Day will again host the established National Holstein Show along with The National Ayrshire Show and The National Brown Swiss Show. Classes will run during the morning for Dairy Shorthorn, Guernsey and Jersey. Live streaming and social media coverage give an international marketing platform to display the UK’s top dairy cattle. The dedicated Sharing Knowledge zone will be held on the rst oor, with four seminars and four industry panels covering sustainability within the dairy sector. Meanwhile the external areas will feature the ever-popular practical demonstrations.ScarsdaleVets, from Derbyshire, will present their ‘Beneath the Black and White’ calf painting to help visualise and understand calf anatomy, health and welfare. Tim Carter also returns with practical demonstrations on foot trimming, blocking and knife sharpening. The quali ed team of independent foot trimmers demonstrate that the key to success is having the right tools for the job. They will also highlight The Cattle Hoof Care Standards Board, a selffunding non-pro t organisation aimed at improving the health, welfare and mobility of the national herd. Internally by the Hall 3 cattle stalls will be the NBDC Breed Village where type classi cation and linear scoring demonstrations will be running for the Ayrshire, Jersey and Holstein breeds. A Virtual Cow demonstration will run on a TV screen, illustrating the linear scale for cow conformation traits, allowing for an improved understanding of dairy cow conformation and easy visualisation of anatomical di erences within each trait across the linear scale.

Hoofsure Endurance has been proven to reduce lameness by 44% compared to copper and formaldehyde. It is also much safer for the animal and user when compared to traditional options such as copper and formalin, and is biodegradable in the environment. Copper and formalin footbaths have numerous problems; copper is toxic to animals and to the environment, formalin is carcinogenic and irritant, and its fumes should be avoided.Provita has developed a new improved formula, which is 33% faster

LesionsBDDofPrevalence

A preventative approach Using a safe, e ective, proven and ‘green’ product like Provita’s Hoofsure Endurance is the proper preventive approach; it signi cantly reduces the incidence of clinical lesions and thus the spread of infection across the herd. UK eld reports indicate that foot bathing with Hoofsure Endurance after every milking reduced lameness by 50% over several months. It is an environmentally friendly, holistic, viable and proven alternative to copper and formalin. Its positive e ects have been widely documented in peer reviewed scienti c literature. It is a combination of organic acids, tea tree oil (TTO), and wetting agents. Organic acids are known to be very e ective antibacterial agents with various modes of action. Tea tree oil is naturally antimicrobial and antiin ammatory, and uniquely degrades bacterial bio lm, which is the protective shield below which bacteria can replicate and invade further into the hoof. It is also a major mechanism of clinical resistance to antimicrobials. Very few veterinary products are e ective against bacterial bio lm and this e ect presumably explains the high eld success rate of Hoofsure Endurance. It possesses unique penetrating action and modi es the local pH of the hoof, and stimulates healthy cell growth and keratinisation.Publishedstudies show that Hoofsure Endurance was more e ective than copper or formalin against bacteria, had a quicker onset of action, and was more e ective in the presence of organic matter in lab studies (see gures 1 and 2 for summary).

Focusing on treatment rather than prevention in dairy lameness management programmes can seriously impact overall herd health – with many indirect implications for metabolic disease and infertility, which ultimately drains farm pro ts. Prevention using regular footbaths is key for moving forward, and needs to be carried out 5–7 times a week on all animals. If lameness can be controlled, subsequent nancial bene ts will be clearly bacteria.acttheinvestmenthousedessentialofconditionsBecausetodiseaseshowHoovesonceandfootdisease,Digitalseen.dermatitis/Mortellaroisoneofthemostcommondiseasesattributabletolamenessisvirtuallyimpossibletoeradicateitappearsclinicallyonfarm.soakedconstantlyinslurryanincreasedincidenceofthisanditcanpredisposeanimalsheelhornerosion(‘slurryheel’).ofthechangeinunderfootandtheincreasedincidencelamenessduringhousing,itistoapplyafootbathdailytocattle.ThisisareallyworthwhilebecauseithelpstopreventappearanceoflesionsofDD,whichasahugereservoirofinfectious

Tom Mans eld, livestock manager at Waddesdon Estates explores the technology he wouldn’t want to be without, and how it has improved the farm’s data recording and stock management. Waddesdon Estates consists of a regenerative farming practice covering over 4,100 acres of prime Buckinghamshire land between Bicester and Aylesbury. The farm consists of 3,000 acres of combinable crops and 800 acres of permanent pasture.Livestock within the estate consists of 47 pedigree shorthorns, with the young and nishing stock all running in a closed high health herd. Sheep total 1,115 head, comprising of North Country Mules, Su olks and Texels. The arable cropping rotation includes over cropping and herbal leys, which are grazed with both cattle and sheep. The livestock are grazed in a cell grazing practice with 4-6 days maximum grazing interval per cell. Cows are run using NoFence collars, allowing ease and e cient paddock management.Sincemytime at Waddesdon, all ear tags have been supplied by Shearwell. In July 2021, we stepped into stock management via EID tags using the Shearwell Stock Recorder and use of the FarmWorks by SDL software program. Since running the FarmWorks programme, it has helped and proven its worth countless times. I run sheep though Te-Pari HD4 Racewell supplied by Shearwell alongside a Stock Recorder, making data recording and stock management a pleasure. Recently I upgraded to their X6 Stock Recorder, which was a progression again. Running Shearwell ear tags alongside Shearwell Data recording is simple. Having known and dealt with my area representative, Liz Speller, for many years, I cannot fault the service I have received. Any queries are easily and promptly sorted with a phone call, even on a Sunday morning! Ordering replacement tags couldn’t be easier via a quick message to Liz. As livestock manager on the estate, all responsibilities of data recording are mine and having just had an animal health and Red Tractor inspection, FarmWorks proved itself to be something that I wouldn’t want to be without. All medicine records, movements, transport details and so much more were easily to hand via the programme. All calves are tagged with Shearwell’s metal EID tag, and then registered using the X6 Stock Recorder, allowing swift and easy management. Running a Stock Recorder and FarmWorks has made management of stock easy and e ective.

Forage Analysis Assurance Group (FAAG): With all the challenges facing dairy farmers this year, the need for regular, accurate and reliable forage analysis has never been greater. This season’s weather, high costs of fertiliser, supply issues and possible shortages of forage stocks for winter, mean that getting the maximum potential value from silage in a feed ration can make a real di erence to yields and costs. Nutritional analysis of silages provides farmers and feed advisers with essential information for formulating rations. Forage from grass, whole crop or maize is one of the most economic feeds for ruminants and a valuable resource. The FAA Group, provides quality assurance for the analysis of silages. The group is formed of laboratories and related businesses and is dedicated to ensuring that reported forage analysis results are accurate and can be relied upon. Silages are naturally variable materials. Sampling methods and di erent techniques available for analysis can a ect the reported results. FAA members take part in regular pro ciency tests to ensure quality and conformity from a range of methods.

Waterbed solution tackles mastitis and lameness on dairy farm When one County Antrim farm needed to replace their old mattresses, they opted for a waterbed solution combined with Aquaboard brisket, and have seen signi cant bene ts to cow health and comfort.

www.farmersguide.co.uk September 202268 Livestock Call +44 (0)28 6774 8377 or email info@teemoreengineering for more informationMAXIMISINGwww.teemoreengineering.comCOWPERFORMANCE TEEMORE ENGINEERING NUMBER 1 LIVESTOCK HOUSING SPECIALIST

The farm installed 78 spaces of the Aquastar Ultimate, supplied by Teemore Engineering. This is a combination of the Aquastar water mattress, proven to increase comfort whilst also keeping maintenance costs down; and the waterboard, a brisket which supports the cow when she is rising and lying, reducing lesions on her hawks and foot problems. The farm’s old mattress was outdated and needed replacing as the rubber cover was doing little to support the cows’ comfort. Teemore area representative, Philip Gillespie, discussed the immense bene ts linked to a water mattress, but one of the farmer’s concerns was the pressure on the hoof when rising on the concrete below the water pouch. However, unlike other versions of the product, Aquastar Ultimate incorporates the same foam inlay as on Teemore’s other popular mattress products, the Elista and Optima, improving the cow’s locomotion in its environment.Sixmonthson from the move-in date, the cows within the Aquastar Ultimate shed appeared to be much cleaner compared to an ordinary mattress cubicle. The farmer said there are now little to no mastitis cases within the herd. Research has shown that using a water-based mattress reduces the pressure felt by the cow on its udder, due the ‘ oating’ e ect. This supports the healthy ow of blood through the udder, the same blood ow that helps the cow produce milk. Milk pooling in the beds is also a problem of the past due the water mattress’s ability to eliminate it on the beds by directing any liquids towards the alley. The cows appeared calm and peaceful, chewing on their cud, which is a sure sign they are content with their beds, Teemore says.

Another factor is the mattress’s ability to contradict heat stress, which is important to consider coming into the summer months. A cow can withstand temperatures between 5–25ºC, but the warmer the cow is the more energy required to keep cool. As we know, water holds a lower temperature than the environment it’s in, which allows for heat from the cow to be transferred to the mattress, meaning less energy is used in lowering the body temperature and can instead be used for producing more milk. The farmer, a recurring Teemore customer, is especially happy with the Aquaboard brisket, part of the ultimate combination, and states that it supports the cow immensely, reducing lameness in the herd. The Aquastar Ultimate combination is a new contribution to the farming industry, supporting increased milk production and healthy cows, whilst maintaining comfort as the number one priority. It is evident on every farm where the Aquastar has been installed, that production and animal health has increased whilst incidents of lameness and mastitis have greatly reduced.

It is generally thought that cows prefer sand or a similar deep-litter bed over any other in the cubicle house.

The results have been fantastic from a Mayo, and farmer, perspective.”Ononeunit in Lancashire with 400 deep-litter beds, the cows had never laid on anything else. The farmer was looking into a mattress system as he could not nd su cient labour to keep the beds clean and comfortable. Engaged in the manufacture of cheese, he was extremely worried about upsetting the herd’s performance in any way. A run of 50 Mayo Mattresses were installed and within two weeks, the cows were showing no preference –an extraordinary result, Niamhanna says. Needless to say, the full unit has since converted successfully. Mayo says a no-compromise sand solution exists in its Mayo Mattress.

Coccidiosis and cryptosporidium reduction in calves

COCCIDIOSIS AND CRYPTOSPORIDIUM

Inevitably, however, calves will be exposed to viruses, bacteria and parasites in their environment, which can cause scours, respiratory problems or other diseases. Through the use of a controlled disinfection programme, the number of infections and organisms to which the calf is exposed are reduced. The health of calves should be a priority, as how they are looked after in early life affects their adult life, which can essentially save both time andCoccidiosismoney. cryptosporidiumand– both diarrhoea-causing infections common in young calves that can be fatal – are hard to treat.

Having an e ective cleaning and disinfection programme is essential in modern calf house management, as a thoroughly cleaned and disinfected pen aids the health of calves and reduces mortality rates. Therefore, it is important that housing management systems are optimised in order to prevent stress and limit the calf’s susceptibility to disease.

VentilationTube

ASystemTubeVentilation

System supplies fresh air to all parts of the building, diluting airborne pathogens and irritants which can help to reduce vet bills. This system is particularly suitable for calf housing, smaller cow sheds and equine facilities. British made forfarmingbritish Low RunningCosts hydor.co.uk

Bespoke solution tackles calf pneumonia Cats Hill Farm, in Bradford-on-Avon, accommodates around 300 calves at any one time. It consists of three sheds, one of which contains calves ranging between 1-6 monthsold. At such a young age, calves are particularly susceptible to pneumonia.JoannePile, farm owner and contract calf rearer, said: “Despite the northern unit being purpose built, natural ventilation here wasn’t circulating enough fresh air, and meant my livestock were su ering from an increased number of pneumonia cases than would normally be expected. “This then meant I had higher medicine costs. On top of this, if calves get pneumonia, it impacts their growth, yield and most importantly, their welfare.”

The British Charolais Cattle Society says equal attention has been paid to calving ease, temperament and tight sheaths, while females have been selected for maternal traits – calving ease, milk and fertility.

Joanne consulted her vet, who recommended the use of a positive pressure tube ventilation (PPTV) system. Ventilation specialist Hydor was able to provide such a solution. Hydor’s PPTV system distributes a constant supply of fresh air within the building to remove stagnant air and lingering pathogens, while maintaining consistent temperatures in the building so damp and humid air conditions are avoided to prevent the likelihood of pneumonia. Two of Hydor’s tube systems were speci ed to provide air ow down the entire length of the unit where the calves are housed. The solution is designed in such a way that the air is moved above the calves’ height during circulation to avoid the herd being subject to chill.

A bright future for British beef British breeders have selected very carefully for the British Charolais’ structural correctness, without sacri cing the breed’s two noted traits: exceptional growth rate and conformation, in particular depth of loin and hindquarter muscling.

The Charolais is hardy and versatile. Bulls can be found working in diverse environments; in commercial suckler herds both in the hills and uplands, and in more intensive lowland systems. Charolais bulls mature at 12 months of age, while females are usually able to have their rst calf by 24 months of age. The average adult weight is 1,250kg for bulls and 1,000kg for Charolais-siredcows.sucked calves can be sold as weanlings, commanding top prices and regularly topping markets up and down the country – or, stored through the winter and nished o the farm at 12-15 months on a forage and grain-based diet. Another option is to bring them through winter on a maintenance diet and nish o with grass the following summer, depending on the farm’s system. When it comes to the eating quality, Charolais o ers more protein and less fat, tender and tasty meat due to the lower slaughter age, and excellent cutout and value-added cuts. FG

Buildings: If you haven’t already done so, buildings should be steam cleaned/power washed, then disinfected and left to dry. Take the opportunity to check if the building is draining adequately. Check the roof and guttering is intact, and repair as necessary to prevent water ingress making bedding excessively wet. Ensure barriers and gates are t for purpose to prevent escape and injury. Repair any damaged ooring, and if concrete has worn smooth in loa ng areas consider regrooving to reduce the risk of falling. Make sure the water supply is connected, and troughs are clean and lling correctly. Check for leaks and over Calculateowing.shed space, feed/ Preparing for winter housing

Parasites: I would recommend that all rst and second grazers receive a housing dose of 3-ML (ivermectinbased) wormer to clear any existing worm burden, and overwintering Ostertagia larvae which can cause severe disease in the spring. Worming adult cattle is usually an unnecessary expense and may increase the risk of wormer resistance developing. Organic farms should do faecal egg counts before any worming and should not use 3-ML wormers. If there is a liver uke problem on your farm you should also treat the all the cattle for liver uke at housing. If you haven’t had liver uke problems in the past, consider uke testing (faecal egg count, coproantigen, or blood antibody), especially those grazed on high-risk pasture. External parasites such as lice and chorioptic mange tend to cause problems during winter housing. These can be treated with a 3-ML pour-on or permethrin-based spot-on. Apart from the unnecessary worming of adult stock, a 3-ML pour-on, or combination pour-on if uke also needs to be treated, is ideal as this will cover all parasite groups above. FG

Fluke • MrsLice.Ward said: "At housing, you bring animals together and place them in close proximity with shared airspace, which aids disease transmission. It can also be a stressful time due to the change in housing, diet and mixing of groups.“Ifyou think about managing parasites now and conducting tests to identify the risk, it will ease the pressure on stock at housing and help ensure they are as productive as they can be," she added. Any animal that has had a grazing season is at risk of carrying worms, particularly rst-season grazing animals whose immunity hasn't had time to build up. And even though the weather for many parts of the UK has been dry, the parasite risk is still there, according to reports from the Zoetis Parasite Watch Scheme. "If parasites are detected in your cattle, your animal health advisor will be able to give you the best advice on which products to choose; Cydectin TriclaMox Pour-On is one option. It contains moxidectin and triclabendazole in a convenient rain-fast pour-on formulation. The moxidectin will treat stomach worms, lungworm and control chewing and sucking lice. The triclabendazole gives a good spectrum of activity against late immature and adult uke," said Mrs Ward.

Plan diagnostic tests for cattle parasites now to aid treatment strategy at housing helps prevent production losses. However, unnecessary treatments can add to the resistance pressure, which is why testing is essential, says Zoetis vet Ally "DiagnosticWard.testing can help farmers identify which parasites to treat. However, it is important to choose the right test and conduct it at the right time.

Farmers should plan when to conduct diagnostic tests for cattle parasites and which tests to use ahead of housing to identify the parasite risk on their farm and possible treatment strategy. Housing cattle provides an opportune time to remove unwanted parasite burdens by treating them at the same time they are brought in.

Each test has its place, but it will depend on the time of year and weather as to which one is most suitable," she said. “For example, a coproantigen test detects whether an animal has picked up uke six weeks previously but not if that animal picked it up two days previously. The idea is to test 10 animals in a group. It is important farmers speak with their vets to discuss the most appropriate diagnostic test for their herd ahead of housing."

The four main parasites to be aware of that pose a risk to cattle are:

In a study done at Plumpton College in Sussex, despite having a 300g disadvantage to the control group, lambs supplemented with Rumevite Quality Lamb had a daily liveweight gain of 189g, which resulted in a 36.7kg liveweight at 45 days to slaughter. The control group only gained 94.3g/day, nishing in 83 days at 36.3kg. “Not only did the supplemented lambs have greater daily liveweight gains at grass and nish 38 days sooner, but they also achieved greater carcase grades than the control group,” says Dr Bond. Even greater results in reducing time to nish have been seen at farm level.In a farm trial of over 700 lambs monitored from birth to nish, those supplemented with Rumevite Quality Lamb from weaning onwards reached heavier nishing weights 87 days faster than the control group.

“The blocks allow for little and often feeding, constantly topping up lamb nutrient levels.

Concern over low uptake of EAE vaccines

A recent sheep abortion round table discussion, hosted by UK-Vet Livestock, saw leading sheep vets and farmers express concern over the low uptake of both enzootic abortion of ewes (EAE) and Toxoplasma spp vaccines. EAE is estimated to cost the UK sheep industry up to £20million annually.In2017, the Ruma Targets Task force recommended increasing EAE vaccines by 5% per year over ve years, to ensure responsible use of antibiotics. However, vaccination for EAE and Toxoplasma spp peaked in 2020 at 50% and 31% respectively for ewes intended for rstSheepbreeding.veterinary consultants Fiona Lovatt and Kate Hovers were among the experts to recommend that all ocks that bring in replacement ewes or have neighbours that lamb sheep should vaccinate against EAE. Replacements should also be sourced from EAE-accredited ocks to reduce the risk of bringing in the disease and ewes should be lambed separately from the home ock for their rst year to contain issues.Additionally, vaccination protocols for abortion should be incorporated into ock health plans.Fiona said: “You have to consider what the risks are to your ock – and they are high if you ever buy in ewes or if you have close sheep ock neighbours. You must vaccinate before you see any evidence of EAE, both to protect your own ewes and the ones you buy in.” FG Sheep farmers can make signi cant reductions in the amount of time it takes to get weaned lambs to nishing weight by supplementing with a specially formulated forage block, says Dr Alison Bond, nutritionist for Rumenco.

Supplemented lambs had a daily liveweight gain of 102g, resulting in a nishing weight of 44.18kg after 222 days of farm. In comparison, the control group was on the farm for an average of 309 days, nishing at 43.79kg.Nutrition + rumen stimulation = improved performance. The boost in performance in weaned lambs supplemented with the forage block is multifactorial, says Dr Bond.“The rst big bene t we see is rumen stimulation, which in turn increases digestion. Unlike concentrates, forage supplements allow for little and often feeding, which results in less pH variation in the rumen,” says Dr Bond. “The blocks also have a fermentation ingredient to fuel the rumen bug population.”Goodframe growth and energy for weight gain is achieved through the block’s 18% all-natural protein content and 13 ME. Lambs also bene t from the formulation which includes essential trace elements, vitamins and minerals. This includes vitamin B1, selenium, cobalt and protected zinc.

A: The Veterinary Health and Welfare Plans (VHWP) should serve as a dynamic document that provides detailed sitespeci c advice. Irrelevant of whether a housing order is imposed, producers should ensure that housing is in good working order from a biosecurity and bird welfare point of view. Some sites may even nd it useful to have an external company audit their set-up. FG

QQQ

A: Disease as well as poor growth rates are more likely where insu cient ventilation is a problem. Not getting enough oxygen, but conversely not removing enough waste gases such as CO2 will prevent birds reaching their genetic potential in terms of performance. Usually, it makes managing their environment more di cult, largely due to excessive amounts of water vapour being present within the shed. Consequently, a bird’s respiratory system has to work harder and this stress alone will increase susceptibility to disease. Some waste gases can directly damage the respiratory system too. Poorly ventilated sheds can be dusty and mildly noxious which impacts on human health and willingness to work in the poultry shed. Sta should be encouraged to wear masks when working in poultry sheds and noxious smells should never be allowed to accumulate from a human, as well as bird perspective; a high waste gas concentration can a ect bird vision and suppress feed intakes. healthPoultryathousing

What diseases will housed poultry be more susceptible to this winter? A: Typically, winter can pose more respiratory disease challenges than warmer and drier times of year. When poultry are continually housed, disease transmission is easier so producers should remain vigilant for signs of the common poultry respiratory infections such as infectious bronchitis and mycoplasmosis. Obviously, avian in uenza has been especially problematic over the last couple of winter periods and unfortunately it is one of the respiratory diseases that thrives in cooler damper Free-rangeconditions. producers should remain vigilant in managing worm burdens if their birds must be housed. Sometimes, there is a misconception that because birds are not going outside, they won’t be susceptible to worm infestation. This isn’t always the case so producers should uphold vigilance against worms and speak to their vet if they’re unsure about the worming status of their housed ock. We tend to think of wintertime This month, avian vet Suzy Brown, of Avivets in Cheshire, o ers advice on optimising the health of housed poultry this winter. as a cooler period, especially for naturally ventilated buildings. This can reduce red mite activity. However, even in small amounts, this parasite is an excellent vector for disease as well as placing a signi cant stress on the bird. If free-range poultry must be housed, ambient shed temperatures can be slightly warmer. This will favour red mite replication so producers should continue to monitor red mite populations throughout this period and treat accordingly. How could the temperature in sheds impact lifelong gut health? A: Poultry like and perform well under constant conditions. Extremes or wildly uctuating temperatures are particularly stressful for birds and this directly impacts on their intestinal health. This in turn impacts on their productivity. Prior to winter, it is imperative that all temperature and humidity recording equipment is working accurately and reliably, especially where this technology is needed to run the ventilation system of the shed. Any broken or poorly functioning ventilation equipment should be replaced. Producers should be aware that over time, equipment won’t always be performing to the same degree it did when it was brand new. If producers are unsure whether the shed’s climate control systems are working properly, consider ‘smoke’ testing the shed so that air movement can easily be seen, to help identify areas that require attention or repair.

What are the risks of insu cient ventilation?

What are the risks of high humidity? A: Relative humidity should be managed according to breed and species requirements and in accordance with audit body requirements. Excessive humidity can increase the risk of most diseases. Mould on bedding and feed is often overlooked because the clinical e ect on birds can be subtle. In extreme cases, Aspergillosis will cause high and sustained mortality and there is usually no treatment for a ected birds. How can producers ensure housing is up to scratch, in case of another AI housing order?

It is most likely that investment in barn will come from existing sites, either the conversion of colony units, which will often halve the number of birds on site, or allow the resting of ranges within the free range sector. Neither of these solutions increases the national flock, and while we are trying to increase the longevity of birds, hopefully the overall reduction of bird numbers will allow for a natural supply and demand correction without further suffering within the industry. To find out more about Big Dutchman’s Natura systems, contact Newquip directly or visit www.newquip.co.uk FG

The future of the egg industry position, where supply and demand are more in balance. As we head into a likely recession, this may become an important change for the industry. Adam Dye, managing director at Newquip, explains: “It is all about providing consumer choice. The UK industry has continually evolved to ensure welfare standards are some of the highest in the world, and Big Dutchman Natura system supplied and installed by Newquip. consistently reinvests to make sure we remain at the forefront in this regard.”Colony eggs will still have a place within the UK, especially given the economic outlook with which we are now faced. That said, the increase in recognition of barn production provides another tier within the market from which consumers can select. The requirement for an economical egg on the supermarket shelves will definitely mean the production ratios of colony, barn, free range, and organic will need to change.

Poultry farming is considered one of the fastest-growing divisions of the agricultural sector, according to a recent report by farm accountants Andersons, with barn production expected to grow from its current 3% to 10% of the market by 2025. This is due to the decision to largely remove enriched colony egg from supermarket shelves, a pledge which was made prior to all of the recent world events, which are affecting the present situation. This decision will hopefully now be one which will allow the industry to return to a sustainable Newquip says the investment in barn production could be the answer to maintaining a viable business.

• Has no harvest interval or MRL

Growers approach the 2022 potato harvest surrounded by uncertainty. Costs for many inputs have jumped – fertiliser, electricity and diesel being the most signi cant – and there is no obvious sign that they will get cheaper any time soon. Juno (Plant Protection) Ltd explains more. At the same time as the above, the demise of BPC/AHDB Potatoes means that growers are much less aware of market conditions in the UK. How many hectares have been planted? Is the area sharply down, or have growers taken a counter-cyclical view and increased their acreage? How many growers have left the industry completely? And in a season which has seen crops held in store for longer than usual (the result of a series of unexpected movement delays), how much 2021 crop remains in store with a (fading) hope of movement? Two years on from the demise of CIPC in Europe, it seems that the rest of the world will play catch-up. End users in North America and Australia are increasingly uncomfortable and looking for alternatives. Biox-M is well established in European markets, with growers increasingly con dent in using a product, which has seen a

Economic performance in potato stores more important than ever step-change in store management. The focus for many store-keepers and growers has turned to ne tuning store management to extend the return interval, to reduce the number of applications and to understand the ne points of detail, which will enhance economic performance. Fog distribution during application is very important; it should be as even as possible through the store, and particularly through boxes. Thus, fan speed and intermittent fan operation during fogging should be considered. Fan running time and speed during the closed period after treatment can be reduced in almost all circumstances if a really good, even distribution of fog (and then vapour) has been achieved during fogging. Fan operation during the closed period serves to ensure that an even distribution of vapour remains so. Intermittent and slow speed is su cient. Many growers are also extending the closed period, if store and crop conditions allow. And, in spite of regular exhortation to leave stores closed for at least 48 hours (with 72 being better still) following treatment, we still come across incidences of stores with doors left open shortly after treatment. Biox-M is a volatile product, which will escape if given an opportunity to do so. FG

Et augebitur scientia (And knowledge will be increased) For progress to be maintained, we need to ensure that the ndings of research and development continue to be incorporated into commercial practice. This is the purpose of The Potato Partnership. This is principally a joint e ort involving James Foskett Farms, James Wrinch of East Su olk Produce, Matt Gregory of Greenwell Farms, agronomist Graham Tomalin, and Agrii. Several local growers provide additional trials sites with the support of CUPGRA while manufacturers provide new products for consideration.Atourinaugural ‘Open Session’ we showcased just two of this season’s trials, both of which are focussed on potato cyst nematode (PCN). The rst, hosted by James Foskett Farms, is a strati ed trial on a 100% G. rostochiensis site testing current and potential new options for control. The second, on a 100% G. pallida site, demonstrated the resistance and tolerance of a range of current and new potato varieties, again on a strati ed basis with and without the nematicide, Velum Prime ( uopyram). Both trials provided highly visual di erences and prompted much discussion. These will be taken through to yield with tuber size distribution and, importantly, changes in PCN population recorded. The intention of The Potato Partnership is to identify solutions to the challenges we face today and, in the future, including those caused by the weather. We have a programme of work to support this but with the involvement of others we will broaden our understanding and increase our chances of success. This would bene t everyone in potatoes. FG Nick Winmill, head of potato research and development for trials specialist and crop adviser Agrii, considers the role of trials in supporting enterprise performance.

At its most basic level, crop performance is a function of the weather. The 2022 season will be remembered for the lack of rain, but it could just as easily be for too much – such is the nature of farming. It is how growers, and their advisers prepare and respond to this seasonal challenge that determines how crops perform. As within all available.irrigationbereducedleadingtheweatherofsuccess.determinantthemanagementbusinesses,issinglebiggestofTherecentperiodextraordinarilyhotwillhaveacceleratedphysiologicalmaturityofcrops,toearlysenescenceandyieldpotential.ThiswillfurthercompoundedwherehasbeenrestrictedornotAsiftheclimaticchallenges of ‘Mother Nature’ were not enough, the economics of production and poor nancial returns serve to further test the limits of grower resolve and resilience.Thereis little any of us can do to in uence prices, but there is much that good agronomy can do to manage the production risks. Through rigorous replicated trials, we test and evaluate new practices that improve production, promote functional soils and support biodiversity. This work is collectively described as ‘research and development’ and it is how as an industry we have advanced the control of weeds, pests, and diseases through the integration of various actions. We apply some or all of these to varying degrees according to the situation.

The Blackburn Chitting Crate was developed back in the late 1970s through a collaboration between ADAS, potato growers and Lincolnshire iron monger, Alan Blackburn. The crates are now manufactured by Pellcroft Engineering in Coningsby Lincolnshire – only a short distance from where the rst ones were built.

More potato farmers are moving away from the use of labourintensive chitting trays to bulk chitting systems to cope with a shortage of farm labourers and improve farm e ciency.

The crates hold approximately 0.5t of seed potatoes and have an innovative curved welded mesh interior, which ensures that no surface of the potato is any more than 3in from light. They can be stacked up to ve high during the chitting process, in a greenhouse or controlled environment store. Once the sprouts are approximately 0.25in long, the seed potatoes are ready to pour directly into a planting hopper using a box tipper attachment on a teleporter. The design of the crate and the recommended 0.25in sprout size ensures the potatoes can be poured in bulk without incurring damage. The whole operation from store to planting in the eld can be run by just one person. There has been a steady uptake in the use of these crates over the years and there are now thought to be over 100 in the UK and Ireland using them and over 10,000 in active use. The sturdy metal design and interest among smaller farmers has kept the second-hand market value particularly buoyant.

The smart ow sensor switch is solar powered and allows fully remote operation, including realtime changes to water ow, as well as programmed schedules by time, volume, sensor outputs, weather forecast, and crop models.

FG Energy management system aids energy e iciency

When it comes to crop storage, at the forefront of many of Farm Electronics’ customers’ minds is the ever increasing input costs being incurred, the company says. Obviously, one of these signi cant increases has been energy price rises. In response, Farm Electronics is now able to o er a comprehensive Energy Management Control package on its Vision controller to manage not only multiple crop stores, but also take into account other high energy usage applications on the farm. This module measures and regulates energy consumption based on set priorities and the maximum permissible energy consumption.

A smart ow sensor switch for irrigation has been launched by connected sensor specialist Metos UK. The iMETOS ICA10 NB-IoT device enables growers to optimise the e ciency of irrigation and fertigation cycles, saving time andMetoswater.UK director, David Whatto , says: “With water usage under increasing scrutiny and input costs continuing to go up, it pays to minimise wastage through your irrigation. The iMETOS ICA10 NB-IoT device is very simple, works remotely, and enables real time water usage monitoring and irrigation control.”

www.farmersguide.co.uk September 202296

“The iMETOS ICA10 NB-IoT has been shown to save up to 30% of water use. And, when connected virtually to sensors measuring soil moisture, temperature, relative humidity, rain, water use and/or water pressure, it allows growers to tailor their irrigation to suit speci c crops, soil types, growth stage, and environmental conditions, including where water use is restricted,” explains David. The switch is quick and easy to install within existing irrigation systems and comes with its own app and desktop software. The software provides reports with daily, weekly, monthly, and annual consumption data and these can be exported for additional analysis.Noti cations and alerts can be received by email and on the app, and some can be customisable to suit the user.

The energy management system is a module in the Vision Control and comprises an energy meter and software. The energy meter measures the energy consumption and the software determines which storage compartments may proceed to ventilate/cool based on the power consumption and information from the storage compartments. Based on the di erence between the control temperature and the target temperature, the system determines which storage compartments are to be ventilated/ cooled. The module knows how many compartments can be activated to optimally utilise the existing power connection while retaining the quality of the product. Self-generated energy can also be managed by the module. Excess selfgenerated energy has to be returned back to the grid and the revenue for the duringpowerthose peaks is often low.

British potato expert recognised for outstanding achievements Dr Mike Storey has been recognised for his outstanding contribution to research and innovation in the potato industry with an honorary membership of the European Association of Potato Research (EAPR).DrStorey has been an outstanding contributor to research and innovation in the potato industry, globally, but with a strong emphasis on the British potato industry. His achievements in driving research and innovation in the British potato industry have been recognised through many awards, the most recent one being the John Green Memorial Trophy. The former research director for the Potato Council and head of resource management at AHDB has worked with the EAPR in di erent roles; he became vice president in 2002 and served the Association in this crucial position untilIn2017.addition, he has served on many scienti c committees for its triennial conferences. When asked about the award, Mr Storey said: “I am delighted to have received this honour, and it is fantastic to see so many committed researchers within the EAPR continuing to drive for innovation in the potato sector to help develop a more sustainable and productive food system.” FG Dr Mike Storey.

Visitors to this year’s Dri eld Show were the rst to see the latest innovation in mobile optical sorting – the Pro Sort. Developed by Haith Group and Grimme UK, demonstrations of the new machine are now being organised.Designed to automate the removal of stone, clod and foreign debris from potatoes and help growers cope with labour shortages, the Pro Sort features a Tomra 3A optical sorter capable of handling up to 100t/hour with high levels of accuracy. The Tomra 3A employs Near Infra-Red multi-spectral sensors for an unobstructed assessment of every object ‘in ight’, seamlessly identifying between potatoes and foreign material. As well as debris, the 3A’s colour sensors can also detect green potatoes, which like the debris, are removed at the end of the conveyor belt by intelligent nger ejectors. As the Pro Sort is a modular unit, it can be used in the eld or on a farm and easily integrated into a new or existing grading line. “The Pro Sort was extremely well received by visitors to the Dri eld Show,” said Haith sales manager Rob High eld. “It looks as though, by combining the innovative approach of Grimme and Haith, we have found a solution to several common problems facing growers today –the need to sort in the eld or the farm accurately and quickly and without the people who used to perform that role.

Self-angling discs E ective disc spacing is 125mm, and the standard discs are 450mm diameter, but 470mm diameter TrueCut discs with machined notches, or ultra-shallow CrossCutter discs can also be used. The range of working depths is 2–12cm, and a clever aspect of the design is that as the disc working depth is altered, the disc working angle adjusts to suit. The discs of the original Carrier maintain a constant working angle regardless of the working depth, but the new Carrier XT has a new adjustment system that automatically alters the angle so that it is always optimised. For deep working the disc angle remains shallow, reducing the amount of soil thrown, whereas when working shallower the disc angle is larger, ensuring that soil across the full working width is moved. Slurry incorporation The new Carrier XT is available in mounted and trailed versions in all three working widths, and there is also a galvanised nish option for mounted versions for slurry incorporation. Production commences in October this year. FG

Front tool and rear press options

The original Carrier had free oating cultivation elements, but the XT layout allows the weight and working pressure to be adjusted hydraulically to ensure an even working depth across the machine.

Designed for primary tillage and seedbed preparation, the Carrier XT comes in 4.25, 5.25 and 6.25m working widths. It features a new, simple, and quick folding system through which the two sides fold vertically to the centre, and trailed models have the transport wheels at the rear, allowing the cultivation elements and packer to be lifted clear of the ground for reversing and making it easier to work into eld corners. Even working depth

The new Carrier XT can also be equipped with a combination of front attachments, making it extremely versatile. With the front CrossBoard tted; a Straw Harrow or the popular CrossCutter Knife can also be tted – adding exibility and reducing the time needed to switch attachments for di erent working conditions and crops.

New cultivator o ers greater flexibility

Vaderstad’s Carrier XT, which shares proven features of the original Carrier while adding the extra convenience and versatility of the newer Carrier XL model, will prove a popular addition to the line-up, predicts an East Anglian-based main dealer. David Williams reports. Ben Burgess area sales managers Ben Conway (left) with David English.

The number of rear press options has also been increased including the ability to work with double packers which is expected to be an attraction, explained Vaderstad main dealer, Ben Burgess area sales manager David English, who saw a pre-production version of the new Carrier XT working in Sweden earlier this year. “It is exactly what many of our customers have been asking for. The classic Carrier has a superb reputation, but it can only accommodate a single packer. Particularly for customers with heavier land, the wider spaced rings of a double packer would o er advantages in sticky conditions, as well as in light, pu y soils. Being able to t a wider selection of front mounted tools makes it even more versatile. The XT will be a very popular addition to the line-up.”

Stubble cultivator seeding unit o ers soil health benefits Adding an SH seeding unit to a Kuhn Optimer stubble cultivator o ers the opportunity to drill catch and cover crops in one pass. The SH is a seed drill for small seeds designed to work with the Optimer range to drill crops such as clover, ryegrass, and some cerealThecrops.SH201 E and SH 402 E o er an electric drive unit and Kuhn also o ers the SH 402 H, a hydraulic alternative. All models feature interchangeable metering cells for either large or small seeds. The seed rate is easily controlled on the electrically driven models with Isobus control from the cab. The hydraulic alternative has a higher output capacity, with the 6m model capable of 100kg/ha at 12kph. The Optimer has been designed to create a ne tilth, perfect for drilling catch and cover crops. These crops can improve soil structure and porosity whilst improving nitrogen xing and reducing leaching. However, soil preparation is crucial to rst break through weeds and compacted soil, which is why the Optimer can be tted with a range of discs and rollers. With working widths from 3–9m, the Optimer can also be speci ed with a levelling harrow for improved tilth when using the SH seeding unit. Operators can also choose between large 620mm notched discs or a smaller 510mm alternative. This, combined with rollers between 320–700mm, o ers a range to suit all soil conditions.

New overload protection for ploughs well received by customers Lemken launched the new OptiStone automatic overload protection for its Juwel, Diamant and Titan ploughs in 2021. At the heart of the OptiStone is a closed system of highly stable leg plates, which is protected against dirt and foreign objects. A newly designed swivel bracket ensures high lateral tripping forces and optimal plough control in stony soils. When an obstacle is encountered, the new Lemken overload element simultaneously de ects up to 37cm upwards and 20cm to the side. This provides for a su ciently large range of de ection to ensure consistently disruption-free work, even with deep ploughing. The tripping forces can be continuously adjusted from the comfort of the driver’s seat to adapt to changing soil conditions. If the system catches below a slab of stone or roots, it is additionally protected by a double-cut shear bolt to prevent damage to the plough. The OptiStone overload protection features high-strength radial spherical plain bearings to keep the plough bodies stable as the system de ects. The plough bodies are rmly connected to the three-dimensional bearing points and therefore cannot unhitch – an advantage compared to the overload protection systems with four-point suspension commonly found on the market. The radial spherical plain bearing is durable, reliable, and easily accessible. Lemken UK’s general manager, Paul Creasy, commented: “The OptiStone autoreset system has been well received by the UK and Ireland. The tolerances it can work to suit the areas where auto-reset machines are a must.” The Juwel plough range will be at the Tillage-Live event showing OptiStone at work.

Available in working widths from 3–12m, the ranges fall into three categories – disc, tine or disc and tine – with a wide selection of additional tools and packers allowing for a highly tailored con guration. The versatile Joker range of disc cultivators is designed for shallow stubble cultivation, germination of volunteer crops and for shallow seedbed preparation. The mounted Joker CT is equipped with the new disc holders with optimised disc angle that has already been successful in the Joker RT. This improves the quality of the cultivation and results in a very even surface. In addition, the slight inclination of the disc guarantees that the capillaries are broken over the whole working width when working shallowly. This reduces traction and, in dry years, saves available water. The trailed Joker RT features a hydraulically operated levelling at the leading edge of the frame, enabling it to perform well on stubble and ploughed land. The soil adaption and the stone protection of the Joker RT are carried out via the well-proven rubber bearing. As standard, the Joker RT is equipped with 52cm discs. A new CoverCrush disc is available as an alternative for shallow cultivation. Due to its wavy shape, it crumbles the soil surface nely and incorporates catch cropsTheprecisely.trailedCruiser XL is designed for working depths of 4–15cm and can be equipped with four di erent cultivation points allowing it to perform well for stubble cultivation, seedbed preparation or loosening and venting the soils in spring. In combination with duck foot coulters, it is ideal for mechanical weedThecontrol.six-bar frame design allows intensive mixing of harvest residues and, thanks to the 700mm clearance at the tine shaft, even large quantities of organic material are no problem, Horsch says. The Cruiser XL’s longer frame design provides eld levelling and it produces ne soil in the Theseedbed.two-bar Terrano MT has been specially designed to “mix on the top and loosen at the bottom”, making it ideal for UK farming operations. Firstly, two rows of 52cm rotary discs mix the surface followed by two rows of TerraGrip tines with narrow, low disturbance points deep loosen to 30cm. The Terrano MT is particularly suitable for the cultivation of heavy soils that must be loosened deeply, but where harvest residues can only be incorporated in a very shallow manner to avoid coarse soil being transported to the surface.

WHEN FARMING MEANS BUSINESS @KVERNELANDUK

FOCUS ON THE ESSENTIALS KULTISTRIPKVERNELAND

 A six-row Kverneland maize drill follows a six-row Kverneland Kultistrip, lowering establishment costs at Snagg Farm. “Why move all the soil when maize grows in 75cm rows,” asks Andy Longman up, then a deeper 9in pass a few weeks later, before drilling. “With a front tank, we’ll look at putting fertiliser into the strips instead of broadcasting on top, to increase plant uptake,” he adds. “The target is 1,000t of grain from 180 acres, using threeOperatorvarieties.”Chris Keen (pictured on the right) is impressed with the process. “The Kultistrip is an impressive piece of kit, and then the Optima V just raises the bar another notch,” he says. “Seed placement accuracy – both depth and downthe-row-spacing – is amazing. And with RTK guidance, we can match up the six rows perfectly. “Sowing depth is as good as guaranteed, no matter what the conditions,” he continues. “And, without overlaps from electric drive and section control, we’re using less seed. Seed counts are typically 40,000 per acre, and we’re looking to cut back to around 37,000.” With this system, Andy is saving fuel too, burning just 25% of what he would normally use for maize seedbed production.

Looking to reduce the cost of producing grain maize, Andy Longman of Snagg Farm near Shepton Mallet, Somerset, chose Kverneland’s Kultistrip to develop strip tillage practices for the high value forage crop.

It followed a demonstration in 2021, where a six-row Kultistrip was put to work, preparing ground ahead of a contractor’s eight-row maize drill. “It was very much trial and error, but we liked what we saw,” explains Andy (left). “So, we bought the Kultistrip and a six-row Optima V from C&O Tractors, to precisely match-up with cultivated strips. This season’s crop has gone in extremely well, saving time, fuel and establishment cost.” Of last year’s crop, he says those elds that were strip-tilled yielded 0.7t/acre more than the conventionally grown crop. “Weighing every load proves the harvest,” he says. “I’m sure the yield improvement came from the Kultistrip preserving moisture in the seedbed, compared to traditional practices.”Hecomments that weed incidence was reduced, eliminating the need for a pre-emergence spray, enabling any weeds to be knocked out with a post-;emergence application.“Whymove all the soil when maize grows in 75cm rows?” he asks. “We strip-tilled in two passes – the rst at 6in deep to set the ground 70% of the soil surfaceuntouched.remains

Amazone’s all-new Cobra shallow tine cultivator comes with a range of advantages – including Eco-Leaf tines giving optimum crop residue ow alongside seedbed preparation; and a closed centre knife roller which is ideal for working in conditions with a lot of laid straw, maize and rape stubble, or for spring-time cover crop destruction, the manufacturer says. Available in working widths of 6m or 7m, the Cobra is described as the perfect high-speed tool for spring seedbed preparation, or shallow, post combine, stubble-chitting – as well as generating a weather-proof seedbed in the autumn as part of a shallow, low-disturbance seeding system. The hydraulically-folding frame holds six rows of Eco-Leaf tines on a 13.3cm tine spacing. The Eco-Leaf spring tines generate shatter and soil movement through their vibrating action to ensure a high-quality nish and good clod-to-tilth distribution. The tines can be equipped with either a 50mm narrow point or a 220mm duckfoot share, depending on the application. Maximum depth of work is Up-front,13cm.there is a choice of the hydraulically-controlled Crushboard levelling paddles or the full-width knife roller. The closed centre knife roller has reversible knives mounted in a chevron design, to give a constant downwards shredding action and no side-pull. The closed centre design means it can cope with stony conditions, Amazone says. Depth control is hydraulic from the tractor cab and, at the rear, a set of levelling tines is followed up by either a double straw harrow for ensuring perfect straw distribution or a choice of 10 packer rollers depending on soil type and conditions.

The new point can also be retro tted to any existing subsurface cultivator or subsoiler using Agricast’s in-house fabrication service.The Agricast STX point features an innovative system to prevent the point from moving from side to side, thus reducing wear on the 15mm-thick, 500mm hardox leg. The manufacturer has designed the point so that wings can be bolted onto it, giving farmers the option of lifting more soil if desired. Durability of the shin has also been improved, and a larger tungsten tip added on the Anothernose. area in which Agricast has innovated is to the rear of the point, where the bolt is hidden in the shadow of the wing, signi cantly reducing wear to the xing bolt, which is a common problem. The STX is the third part to be added to the company’s range of low disturbance points, joining the Low Disturbance Xtra – LDX, and the Grassland Xtra – GLX. The GLX, Agricast’s fastestgrowing product, is designed for medium-depth cultivation with minimal soil disturbance and is backwards compatible with the Sumo GLS and grassland legs. FG

Optimum stubble processing

EXCLUSIVE DISTRIBUTION ALLIANCEFor more information, please contact your local CASE IH and BEDNAR FMT outlet.

A very popular machine in recent years is the combined cultivator, which is able to do stubble cultivation and deep loosening followed by compaction in one pass. Since the launch of the Actros RO 3000 combined cultivator, Bednar says it has achieved excellent business results with the model range, especially in markets where corn or sunflower is widely grown. These are crops with a large amount of post-harvest residues that need to be properly tilled. The most suitable machine for this purpose is the Actros RO, Bednar reckons. The machine is based on two rows of 690x6mm discs, making it the largest disc diameter on the market in this category of machines – the large diameter discs offer a maximum working depth of 18cm and are excellent for cutting postharvest residues, according to the manufacturer. The large distance between the discs of 42.5cm prevents clogging, even when working in wet conditions. Behind the disc section are two rows of tines with a massive nonstop vertical securing which are used to deeply loose the soil up to 35cm. Advantageously, the second row of tines is located behind the transport axle. Especially during autumn, when working heavy soils or when working in wet conditions, it is possible to work with the Actros RO without a rear packer. The tine can be fitted with points with a width of 40, 60 or 80mm. The levelling of the soil in front of the rear packers is ensured by the incorporation section. Depending on the requirements, this can be equipped with spring levelling section or star-shaped discs levelling section. The whole working process is completed by nal surface closure with the rear packers. Bednar o ers a wide range of packers (V-Ring single or double, U-Ring, Cutpack or double Presspack).Theadjustment of the working depth of the discs and tines is completely hydraulic. The recommended towing engine horsepower for a machine with a working width of 4m ranges from 200–370hp, depending on the conditions and the depth of soil cultivation.

Bomford Turner is a long-established company with more than 100 years of farm machinery development that began in the age of steam power, but its present-day products include world-leading remote control technology used in its Flailbot machinery range. The remote control feature allows the Flailbot vehicles to be managed by signals from an operator using the joystick on a handheld control unit. This means the operator does not have to be on the vehicle – a signi cant safety bene t when the machine is working in a high-risk situation such as hill farming areas, and the operator and the control unit can be up to 150m away from the Flailbot vehicle. The engine outputs for the remotely controlled vehicles are in the 23–70hp range, and a two-speed transmission provides a 7kph maximum forward speed. The special vehicles are used mainly for rotary or ail mowing, but snow blowing, stump grinding and spraying attachments are also available.

While the Flailbot is designed for a highly specialised sector of the machinery market, most of the Bomford Turner sales are achieved with more familiar products, including its popular range of reach arm mowers deigned for professional hedgecutting on farms and in amenity and highway situations, and they are also used for verge mowing. The reach arm mower range o ers a huge choice of speci cations, starting with the Robin series available with 3.4 or 4.3m reach and with parallel linkage included in the standard speci cation, and the agship model is the Eagle with a reach arm that can work with 1.2, 1.5 or 2.0m width cutting head options. The Eagle has an 8.0m maximum reach and it is designed with an arm that can be slewed through 180 degrees to give left- or right-side working. The landscaping machinery list also includes ail mowers and pasture toppers, there is a machinery range for forestry work and Bomford Turner also o ers a list of cultivation implements. F W McConnel is another of the British-based companies that has achieved success, with a product range that features a large selection of reach arm machines for hedge and verge maintenance. It was among the pioneers of this type of machinery, introducing its rst reach arm machine in the 1940s when it was mounted on a Fordson tractor to demonstrate the performance of the cutterbar. Its reach arm range is said to o er the biggest choice of machines available, currently amounting to 12 di erent series and providing 42 models –but this is just a part of the reach arm picture The McConnel 55-Series power arms are ideal for hedgecutting.

Speci cation updates for the Kestrel Power Plus include a power boost to 65hp.

The topic for this month’s Power on the Land is hedging, fencing and forestry equipment, brought to you as always by Mike Williams. Providing eld boundaries that are safe and secure is one of the management priorities on livestock farms, and recent machinery developments include improvements that can help to boost e ciency and reduce the workload required for hedge and fence maintenance. A fencing job that has been eased by mechanisation improvements is post erection –a demanding task in the days of hand-operated post drivers. Powered equipment has taken over most of the post driving required for professional fence erection and repair work on farms and estates, with the Derbyshire-based Wrag company o ering a comprehensive range of post drivers. Wrag started making post drivers suitable for farm use 30 years ago, and most of the models in its current range are in the Powerswing range – suitable for mounting on the rear of a tractor and working with ve di erent hammer weight options ranging from 100–500kg. The Wrag product range also includes additional equipment linked to fencing work, and the list includes net unrolling attachments, there is a range of rock spikes to help prepare for post positioning in hard or stony soil conditions, and Wrag also o ers special post drivers designed for attachment to tractor front loaders or to skid-steer loaders. An addition to the standard range of Wrag post drivers is the self-propelled Tow-IT series models. The Tow-IT model is based on a tractor unit designed and manufactured by the company and powered by a 36hp Yanmar engine. The engine powers a two-speed transmission which drives a pair of tracks to provide the pulling power to move the post driver, and the engine power also operates post driving. Wrag developed the TOW-IT to increase operator safety and boost e ciency for fencing work, especially in di cult site conditions such as steep land.

There is also an additional but much smaller reach arm series recently introduced under the Twose brand name. Twose was a long-established UK-based machinery company which is now owned by McConnel, and the brand name is being preserved. As well as reach arm machines, the McConnel range also includes cultivation implements and ail mowers, while the most impressive product is the self-propelled model at the top of its sprayer range. The increase in the price of heating oil and other fuels has brought renewed interest in using rewood as a domestic heating fuel, and many farms have home-grown timber available that can be used as rewood. This has prompted interest in saws suitable for producing logs for burning, and one of the leading manufacturers of saws for farm use is the Stihl company, which is based in Germany but has well-established product distribution and back-up services in the UK. The Stihl range of petrol-powered cordless chainsaws includes a comprehensive choice of models with 30cm or 35cm bar length options, and a UK list price example is £318.99 for a 30cm chainsaw set that includes a battery and charger. The potential supply of rewood on some farms includes tree branches that have been pruned to provide the extra clearance that may be needed to operate large machines such as combine harvesters, and the list of Stihl products includes pole pruners weighing about 7.9kg, which work with electric power and use telescopic adjustment to provide 5.0m maximum working height. The long list of powered tools available from Stihl also includes the 900BR circular saw that has recently been updated with a new speci cation including increased power, more e cient sawdust clearance and the addition of an electric brake. The product range also includes brushcutters equipped with an 18hp electric motor and designed for pedestrian use to clear weed growth in areas near the farm yards and buildings that are inaccessible for tractor powered equipment. Another source of pedestrian-operated equipment suitable for working in areas where lack of space restricts access for tractor powered equipment is the Makita product range. It o ers tools and machines that operate under manual or pedestrian control, and these include recent additions and product updates for its XGT 40VMAX range of outdoor equipment. The recent arrivals are designed for professional use in terms of speci cation and performance, and they include a selection of chainsaws with electric power plus the new UR002 brush cutter that features three speed settings for the cutting head, with a 6,500rpm maximum. The chainsaw equipment list includes the Makita Automatic Torque Drive (ATD) feature that adjusts the speed of the cutting head to match variations in the work load, while the Active Feedback Sensing system (AFS) is designed to stop the cutting head in order to protect the operator from a kickback reaction if the brush has a sudden slowdown or stoppage. The UR002 can work with the Makita PDC01 or PDC1200 battery backpacks, and customers can also select from a choice of cutting units to suit a range of work requirements. FG …from previous page

FG Mini forwarder attracts attention at Game Fair ‘22

The Alstor mini forwarder is an 8wd machine, designed and built in Sweden to reach di cult and sensitive areas of forestry. Nathan Home, managing director of Home Forestry LLP, the UK agent for Alstor, says the machine was particularly popular with visitors at the recent Game Fair in Warwickshire. There are many load concepts, making it a very versatile machine for plenty of applications. The constant 8wd means it is excellent in challenging and steep terrain and with a low ground pressure and tracks available, it is very well suited to wet sites, Home Forestry reckons. Transportation is easy as it can be towed on a trailer behind a suitable 4x4. Home Forestry was the rst company in the UK to buy an Alstor 8x8 mini forwarder in 1998. It carried out Forestry Commission TDB trials and many open workshops. In 1999, it was given the UK and Ireland dealership for Alstor and has worked closely with Alstor ever since. The company actively contracts and uses the Alstor and has a wide knowledge of the design and operational use. The capabilities, outputs and low impact make these small machines perfect for the UK forest, from light thinnings to clearfell, the company concludes. Home Forestry will attend the APF Exhibition at Ragley Estate on the 22nd–24th September with a wide range of machinery. 89745

And from rewood processing machines of all sizes to portable sawmills to convert one log into utilisable posts and planks. There will be commercial scale charcoal kilns on display and working. Lots of the machinery is designed to be used with existing farm machinery such as tractors, excavators or telehandlers to get the most out of each piece of equipment. There is also a huge woodland crafts area with over 25 craftspeople demonstrating some rare and unusual craft skills including rake making, coracles, wheelwrighting, oak swill baskets, cleft oak, green oak construction, charcoal burning, hazel hurdles, Devon stave baskets, hazel whiskets clog making, pole lathe turning and willow weaving, amongst others. It is a great chance to talk to these craftsmen and learn about a new skill and see the uses that green wood and small dimension timber and coppice can be put to. There will be demonstrations of horse logging and the opportunity to have-a-go and try your hand at handling these powerful animals.

There are also a host of other features and competitions to enjoy, as well as updates on the latest plant health issues. Watch the world 25m poleclimbing championships, the European Chainsaw Carving Championships with Europe’s top 25 carvers in action, the UK Open Fencing Championships, the UK Open Tree Climbing Championships and the World Log to Leg Pole Lathe Championships.Fulldetailsof all events, exhibitors and advance tickets can be found on www.apfexhibition.co.ukTheshowistakingplace on the 22–24th September at Ragley Estate, Alcester, Warwickshire B49 5PS.

Drainage

With ever-rising input costs, there is now a cost-e ective mounted mole drainer that works – the Ceres UniMole Mole Drainer is the perfect machine for the task, the manufacturer reckons. The UniMole brings you “the best of both worlds”, combining a traditional trailed beam mole drainer with the speed, manoeuvrability and convenience of a mounted machine. The Ceres UniMole creates minimal surface disturbance with its unique hydraulic entry and withdrawal system, which allows its leg to run smoothly in and out of the ground. The hydraulic ram automatically extends and contracts, which reduces ground heave, as well as lessening the pressure exerted on the tractor. This prevents the unsightly exposed crater at the end of each run, which is normally associated with mole ploughing, making this machine perfect for zero Get the basics right till, minimum till and pastureland. The wide beam creates a high pressure point over the foot and bullet, to prevent premature lift and shatter and reduce ground disturbance, and allow the ceramic expander to create an even force to consolidate the subsoil. The leg creates an open slit, which allows circulating air to dry out the consolidated substrate and create an even longer lasting drain. The risk of debris and trash build up is greatly reduced not only by the angle of the leading edge, but also by the large 560mm diameter serrated disc which has ample clearance within the frame to prevent congesting and aid freeTherotation.UniMole is built with longevity in mind, not only for long-lasting land drains, but also the lifespan of its components. These include the Hardox 450 full-length skid, leg and headstock pin inserts, which o ers up to four times greater life expectancy than mild steel. The leg is also protected by a choice of two sizes of shear link, which provides a safeguard when using the UniMole in unfamiliar ground. Both main pivots have greaseable sprung steel bushes with EN24 pins. The hard-wearing ceramic expander, which comes as standard, maintains its shape throughout wear by rotating freely on its axis, and it has a convenient stowing position when out of Thework.Ceres team says it believes the UniMole o ers the best all-round performance, whether on grassland, stubble, pre-worked or in-crop conditions, bringing an over 100-year-old design up-to-date and making it suitable for e cient, modern farming and contracting applications.

Please call with your SERVICESALESHIREPARTS requirements Whilst many old drainage systems still work today, their performance is usually inadequate and they have been, or require replacement with a modern plastic drainage system. Whilst large parts of the country, and certainly the eastern counties, are seeing the driest year since 1976, and maybe even further back, it is very easy to forget those wet fields or areas that reduced your yield maybe 12 or 18 months ago.Land drainage is nothing new, in fact it is as old as agriculture itself and dates from as far back as Roman times. The early attempts at drainage were mainly in the form of surface water drainage achieved with ditches, and ridge and furrow, but gradually during the 17th century underdrainage was introduced. These early drains were formed by Don’t forget your land drainage trenches back lled with stone or bushes, but towards the end of the 18th century clay tiles and bricks were used to form a hollow drain. Initially these practices were expensive due to a tax imposed in 1784, which rose to 5/- per thousand pipes. In 1826 however, this tax was removed from tiles used for drainage, subject to the tiles having the word ‘Drain’ stamped on them. Many of the old systems still work today, but their performance is usually inadequate and so they have been, or need to be, replaced by modern plastic drainage systems, installed by GPS guided tracked trenchers, such as those operated by Miles Drainage (20) Ltd. Based in East Anglia but operating nationwide, Miles Drainage (20) Ltd provides a GPS based quality land drainage design and installation service to agricultural, equestrian and sports eld customers. The company also manufactures and refurbishes the Miles Single Leg Mole Plough, as well as supplying spares and wearing parts.

Moling brings long-lasting benefits to soil health

Although we always say mole draining should be done on a rotational basis, in this exceptionally dry year, it would be wise to dig down and check whether you are creating a worthwhile mole. It is a complete waste of time and money if the ground is too dry to produce a perfect and long lasting mole, so if this is the case it may be worth considering moling in the crop in the spring when the ground is dryingMolingout.is ideal for heavy clay soils, and in the right conditions it

143 FARMERS GUIDE 25 YEARS AGO September 2022 www.farmersguide.co.uk

Before the introduction of single germ sugar beet seed and precision seeders, the crop was thinned by workers using hand hoes, but by the mid-1950s the job could be done with a downthe-row thinner. Previously, the farmer had to calculate the plant population by counting the number of plants in random 100in lengths of row across the eld. With this information, the instruction book gave details of the required treatment, stating the length of the thinner blades and the number of passes needed to reduce the plant population to the correct level. However, the thinner could not di erentiate between sugar beet and weed seedlings – an obvious disadvantage! Thinning twice, with large blades on the rst run and smaller ones for the second was recommended for a stand of 28 or more beet in 100in. No treatment was needed for stands of less than 18 beet per 100 inches of row. After a eld of sugar beet had been mechanically thinned it looked as if the crop was destroyed, but after a couple days it looked well again. Land wheel driven down the row thinners had a rotary or a pendulum mechanism to remove seedlings from the row. Rotary thinners including the Stanhay and Ferguson machines, with four, ve or six vertical rotors thinned up to six rows in a single pass. Pendulum machines had blade carrying holders which moved back and forth across the rows of sugar beet. The land wheel driven Ferguson rowcrop thinner had individual depth wheels for each thinner head and a steerage n kept the thinning rotors accurately on the rows. FG In 1958 the four-row Ferguson rowcrop thinner, complete with a seedling count stick, cost £136. Holland

The issue celebrated 30 years of Su olk Farm Machinery Club’s Power in Action demonstration with a 30-page supplement. It provided details of many of the 80 tractors with ploughs, cultivators and drills that would be working later in the month on nearly 200 acres of Su olk clay. At the rst event there were 35 tractors, including seven high horsepower models working on 85 acres. The cheapest Bray Four 4/65 with a Ransomes TS 42 reversible plough cost £2,125 and the most expensive Matbro Masti , with a semi-mounted plough, £3,495. The workhorse tractors at the 1967 Power in Action with engines in the 65hp range included the Ford 5000, Massey Ferguson 175, David Brown 1200 and Nu eld 4/65. Power harrows were being used at the time for most of the seedbed cultivation work on East Anglian farms. Equipment at the 1997 event included a 12-furrow Kuhn Challenger reversible plough with auto-reset, priced at £37,086; and Dowdeswell demonstrated one of its Delta range of reversible ploughs suitable for tractors up to 260hp. There was a new Kverneland cultivator combination with tines, discs and a roll with the choice of a 2.2–4.7m working width; and Vaderstad used a Pneumatic Rapid cultivator drill on its plot. Quivogne demonstrated a Tume drill from Finland suitable for direct, minimal cultivation or conventional drilling. Carter Agricultural took a 4wd 115hp Valmet 6800 with a 36-speed transmission and two speed power take-o , while Brad Farm Machinery demonstrated a 190hp Lamborghini 190 with a seven-furrow Rabe plough and Claydon furrow cracker at Otley. In Farm Machinery News, Horsch had introduced a new liquid fertiliser placement system for grain drills and Massey Ferguson had launched a new range of front-end loaders. An Essex farm had taken delivery of the rst Case Quad Trac to be sold in the UK. The 360hp tractor with a ve psi ground pressure was being put to work with a 8m Simba Top Till harrow. Tractor registrations for the rst six months of the year were 14% down on the same period in 1996 and sales had topped £100m for the rst time. In ‘About People’, one item noted that a team of 12 strong Norfolk WI members had pulled the straightest 25-yard furrow using a single furrow horse plough at a Norfolk Ploughing match. A special feature looked at potato harvesting and handling. At the forthcoming triennial Potato Harvest ’97 event, Richard Pearson was introducing a new two-row QM potato and vegetable harvester for tractors in the 65hp bracket. Moreau would show its new two-row trailed Xera side elevator harvester and Reekie Manufacturing would demonstrate its new clod and stone separator. And nally, Farm Machinery News noted that the Tunstead Trosh (in Norfolk) would be held on 12th September, when, as it would have 60 years earlier, a corn stack would be threshed using horses, steam engines and early tractors.

SUGAR BEET THINNERS

The editorial page in the September 1997 Farmers Guide commented that not only did the harvest period have a horri c record of four deaths in two weeks, but also fraudsters were o ering farmers bargain-priced machines which turned out to be non-existent, stolen or on hire.

In the farming world, his understanding of the land and how it needed to be worked gave farmers the confidence to let him ‘get on with it’.
