bit of over kill on them last pics though our contractor works a 7920 and 7 furrow reversible kverneland and a 6830 with a 5 furrow reversible kverneland  7920 handles the 7 no bother so i am suprised to see them with so little ploughs

One thing to notice is that although the tractors are different colours all the ploughs are the same make, Kvernland  ;) ;) ;) ;) ;) Either they are a good plough or they have a good local dealer  :D :D

got to look at the big picture here murray, just because you see two big tractors with regular size ploughs in a flat field with good soil doesn't mean that the other side of the estate or contract area hasn't got some steep ground with some evil soil & ground conditions, of which one of these tractors with a big 10 furrow semi mounted plough would go absolutely nowhere.

eg: i used to operate a JD7810 approx 175 HP but we only had 10tonne grain trailers , not as you'd expect the bigger 12-15 tonne ones why ? because a lot of the farm was on steep chalk. when the chalk got wet or damp, it was enough to get a grip with 10 tonnes behind us , any more than that we'd have struggled especially going down hill.

i had an overum 5F rev plough to pull with it, of course it could have pulled more , but not on that ground
