Richard de Florennes Posted June 23, 2007 Share Posted June 23, 2007 On our one-hours drive from home to friends not one single tractor was active due to the bad weather until finding this nice pair of my favourite brand John Deere tractors plus the Deere Sprayer parked and running while the drivers were involved in some real farm talk indeed. Luckily, some sun appeared one last time just for a few moments when taking the pictures until a heavy thunderstorm advanced ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Richard de Florennes Posted June 23, 2007 Author Share Posted June 23, 2007 And the other two Johnies parked on the potato field, because the farmer did not see any point in continuing spraying with the sight of the prospect of heavy showers within a few minutes time ...

gogreengelb Posted June 23, 2007 Share Posted June 23, 2007 Bit strange that like they got the wrong tractor hooked up on the sprayer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard de Florennes Posted June 23, 2007 Author Share Posted June 23, 2007 Here is a closer look at the row crops then. Regarding the current modell discussion I must say that e. g. the thin ones from TOWSE trading are very realistic in my eyes. So thin is beautyful!

Richard de Florennes Posted June 23, 2007 Author Share Posted June 23, 2007 Bit strange that like they got the wrong tractor hooked up on the sprayer That's exactly what I also thought, but the tractors are operated by two different farms and regarding the size of the sprayer's wheels, row crops on the tractor would not really allow for improved spacing for operations between the potato beds in this case anyway. The farmer may accept the loss of some crops due to the broader wheels with regard to the lenghts of the sprayer extensions (sorry this argumentations shows me some limits of my English language skills as I am not a native speaker ;-)) Nice to have some kind of chat here...

gogreengelb Posted June 23, 2007 Share Posted June 23, 2007 Your English is very good and once again its nice to see your pics.I,m no expert but with a sprayer like that one filled to the top I would imagine the tractor with really thin wheels would have a problem in damp potatoe rows with grip Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
