Silage has kicked off around me locally while some of us are only at the fertiliser stage still due to ground conditions. It’s going to be an interesting year

April Update
Following on from the last update, the wheats have had their 2nd dose of liquid N now, making use of the showery weather last week to get that applied. The end of last week was dry enough to carry on moving soil for spring beans which is a risk later in the season but taking into account the N they fix in the soil and the fact we generally have a good crop of wheat afterwards we are going to persevere. That jobs pretty much there now and hope to start drilling today (Monday) we had Alan in yesterday to drive the 6R215 on the discs as Tom made a start putting T0 on the behind wheats. The timings are all over the shop this year, the forward wheats need a T1 middle of this week, they missed the T0 as it was too wet, the backwards late drilled wheats want a T0 but the forecast is wind all week. This will however let us get the beans in, even rolled maybe!? The ground that has been under water and flooded several times in the winter at the bottom of Selvinge and Ilford Bridges is going to have Linseed put in, we are going ti need to move the soil with something to get it to dry, possibly the Sumo LDS. In other news, John who comes in for us during busy times with the Claas has had a change of circumstances, his boss has retired, selling the tractor and making him redundant, we seized the opportunity to employ him on a part time basis as he looks to slow down later in life yet still be an asset to the team here, coming in as and when we need him. Simon managed to get hold of a mint condition 6930 for him and to act as a bit of a spare tractor, looks to fit in well here! Finally, at the back end of last year Simon made the decision to replace our nearly 20 year old 8m Vaderstad drill which was ageing yet served us well. The new one arrived on farm last week, the modern version, packed with more technology, seed eye, variable rate ready, and staggered packer wheels for ease of pulling. We were able to claim a grant to help with this purchase luckily. Hunt Forest group are in today to help set it up and get us going with the beans.
Liking the new drill there, conditions are far from ideal this side of the water. Everything still parked up with no sign of anything getting done yet.

Awesome stuff Hugh, makes a nice addition to the kit, that will be one seriously specked tanker once you're done with it!
That’s the plan, 4 fill points, removable boom, dci arm and then can fit the splash plate too

The phonecall I got yesterday from the man rebuilding my 7840s gearbox…. The previous rebuild done by a main dealer under warranty in the 2000s was nothing but a hatchet butcher job. It also was described as a ticking time bomb and he was surprised it had lasted as long as it had.
Followed by the hedge cutter throwing a branch into the diesel tank on my 6320 bursting it yesterday afternoon.- 1

Last time I was in zwolle I was picking them up for sub €30 unboxed, probably doesn’t help that there’s been a mountain of them chopped up over the years
