That is clever, especially if it works for most farms nowadays. One less thing to be worrying about with your crop yields. Impressive stuff. Best wishes, Tony.

The progress with machines is amazing.

What a brilliant piece of kit if it works it would be be a big break through for Arable Farmers

[@berkshirefarmgirl]

Yep

Seen one working and good idea for the dreaded black grass seeds. Just needs a design that can pulverise the tiny seeds so they can’t spill out elsewhere or be dropped from birds still viable.

Wow. What a machine and amazing it can clear the seed heads without damaging the crops. Was intersting to learn from you today that black-grass is a highly competitive weed that severely reduces crop yield by competing for nutrients, especially nitrogen. I guess as it becomes more resistant to many herbicides it is more of a menace.

[@berkshirefarmgirl]

Yes. Good to see you today 👍
