NewHolland2 Posted June 3, 2006 Share Posted June 3, 2006 Nice pics Ben......Oli will like them...... :) I didn't know we used that sort of irrigation system over here, I thought most folk used drums...... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gav836 Posted June 3, 2006 Share Posted June 3, 2006 Nice pics Ben......Oli will like them...... :) I didn't know we used that sort of irrigation system over here, I thought most folk used drums...... We have several of them in this area Martin, nice big open fields in the area here, our neighbour has one at work but it's never close enough to us to get any pictures. Saves alot of time considering the number of times you'd have to move a reel/gun set up to cover that area. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goodhead Posted June 3, 2006 Share Posted June 3, 2006 i think i'm right in saying, these irigators travel the field from one end to the other unmanned. They know where the end of the field is and then go back. Up and down all day. I saw one at the royal show many yrs ago nice system. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Light Land Posted June 4, 2006 Share Posted June 4, 2006 Nice pics Ben......Oli will like them...... :) Sure did mart,grinning like cheshire cat if you must know. You will often grow beter root crops with one of them than you would with a gun,because the dropletts and coverage are far beter makeing the crop grow more even.

IH885XLMAN Posted June 4, 2006 Share Posted June 4, 2006 how long does it take to set up in a field Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I saw one at the royal show many yrs ago nice system. yeah i think they do, the pipe connecting is a flexi type pipe so can be dragged along. There seems to be a frame (pic 4) that an arm must hit to either send it back or stop it? \ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
