Light Land Posted March 2, 2008 Share Posted March 2, 2008 A few pictures of a NZ made trailing plough. You don't often see trailing ploughs used much these days,but I joker I know still tips over 250ha a year of fine sandy loam with a New Holland TM140 and this plough.He makes a heck of nice job with it as well.

Light Land Posted March 2, 2008 Author Share Posted March 2, 2008 To be fair thats the frist one I've seen still in use for donks. The farmers that are still ploughing alot in my area tend to use ploughs from northern europe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jdc Posted March 4, 2008 Share Posted March 4, 2008 Do they make the bodies/metal too or are they by a 'big' manufacturer? Like the spring loaded discs though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
