MJB1 Posted October 13, 2005 Share Posted October 13, 2005 the bottom line is that they'll plough between the rows so that the bailing or chopping can go unhindered :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AndyB Posted October 14, 2005 Share Posted October 14, 2005 Sorry to be a bore but the haulm behind our viners (6 x FMC/PMC + 1 x Ploeger) is generally allowed to die off and can then be ploughed straight under. Peas are harvested at an immature stage so although the haulm looks bulky it does dry off to very little trash. There is an exception to the rule when you get a very vigorous toppy variety which may need discing up but this in my experience is a rarity.

Andy Thanks for that Andy, I thought that might be the case having watched them harvest the over ripe ones this summer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyB Posted October 15, 2005 Share Posted October 15, 2005 Do you have any pics of your FMC/PMC machines Andy?? I'm a big fan of these machines.? I do. I took a few this harvest of a couple of the FMC's they are 'at work' pictures. If i am able and if you would like i could get some close up's of either the FMC 979 AT's and/or the PMC 979 AC's. The pic's i have are burnt onto a cd at the mo which is currently 'tidied' away somewhere. That somewhere is unknown to me! I will get back to you when i have located it!
