NewHolland2 Posted June 29, 2006 Share Posted June 29, 2006 Brilliant pics there......I just love pea/bean vining kit...... What's the difference between a PMC and FMC pea viner??

Belarusfan Posted June 29, 2006 Author Share Posted June 29, 2006 If anyone wants any more photos of the high tips then just shout. Brilliant pics there......I just love pea/bean vining kit...... As far as I can remember Ploeger actually bought thr FMC operations hence the F changing to a P for Ploeger...... Thanks for your kind comment. Sounds about right Interestingly FMC's operations in the USA were bought by the Oxbo corporation. Though why did FMC develop the PSC156, well all of their US machines for that matter, differently from the Fakenham built series? Maybe local conditions? Any idea when the beans will be harvested that you photographed the drilling kit from NH2? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NewHolland2 Posted June 29, 2006 Share Posted June 29, 2006 Any idea when the beans will be harvested that you photographed the drilling kit from NH2? Speaking to the farmer he says they take three-four months to fully grow so I would imagine harvest time will be around September sometime...... There's a fair few fields they have near my house so I'll manage plenty pics, the last time I saw their kit they were operating a fleet of FMC's but I think they may have a PMC or two now as well...... Needless to say I can't wait...... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
