jdc Posted August 28, 2008 Share Posted August 28, 2008 TT managed to take some photos today as we started the wheat - this is the first day of combining that the combine hasn't had rain on her! First field was a second wheat with a bit of take-all - yielded quite well though. Graeme is doing a good job on the Renault. He got some mud on the NH so has been relegated Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CX820Joe Posted August 28, 2008 Share Posted August 28, 2008 I did see one today sitting in a shed, only saw TX32's on the go though. Nice combines, the only time I've ever had a ride on one was on a TX34... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJB1 Posted August 29, 2008 Share Posted August 29, 2008 lovely pics TT seriously john , that wheat looks better than some of the stuff down here,at least it's standing ! why chopping ? i'd have thought straw would be at a premium this year,heard of a chap this way whos had to go back to his round baler as the straws so brittle , the D1000 size bales he does keep dissintergrating soon as they leave the baler all looks well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deere-est Posted August 29, 2008 Share Posted August 29, 2008 Excellent photo's. I love seeing photo's of you guys working as it always looks so smooth and timely. The machines are looking great John. A pleasure to see. I hold the short feed elevator of the TX32 fully responsible for jippy back. . . . but still love the 'ol gal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nashmach Posted September 9, 2008 Share Posted September 9, 2008 Didn't bung her up again then John :D Poor old Graeme - I bet he was bitterly disappointed to get the Renault - maybe you should give him the 35 :D 4t/ac is a fine yield especially if at 20% mc - most will be doing well to get 3.5t/ac over here and spring barley is only doing about 2.75t/ac unless there is a lot of dung/slurry gone on No sign of fusarium then Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like its about 4.5 average on second wheats. (at 14%) No fusarium, Colm, low risk (in spite of rainfall) and a bloomin' good head spray.

nashmach Posted September 10, 2008 Share Posted September 10, 2008 That is the problem with barley - its much more susceptible unfortunately - we sprayed at right times and good ear spray also (strob, fungicide etc) so wouldn't blame that. I don't think you got as much rain as we did in early August which definitely contributed also Are you nearly done yet or is the TX in dock :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
