@NebFarmerDan Probably an extension tube too long! Case need to install a wire support system such as on this unloading auger stretching to 13.3 m!

@a_whyte15 Monoculture on a massive scale and road-going trucks in the field - treating their soils like dirt - not sustainable I think

[Tim Chamen @TimChamen]

Lucky there was a plough on the back to stop this tractor!

@FoxRob5 @JBrockAndSons What happened to your autosteer Rob - non-matching of passes? And, are you still using CTF in this field - seems not by the lines of the stubble? One has to be wary of the keen-eyed when posting a video! Good luck with the new machine, looks good.

@flawborough_fms Interesting pattern Tom and probably unique to CTF farms! Experience from ongoing experiments in 1984 showed that cracks in random traffic systems were predominantly in lines following the main traffic direction rather than in a crazy paving!

@No1FarmerJake @LEAFchief So very very sorry to hear that Caroline has left us. We first met on a stand at the Royal Show when she was launching LEAF. A quietly dedicated person with whom I feel privileged to have had an acquaintance.

Right now, the world is not seeing what's happening across East Africa, where we estimate one person is dying every 48 seconds from acute hunger. East Africa cannot wait for the world to notice. Learn more at https://t.co/meL3uKSC1P

Pity that probably only a few irresponsible smokers will see this!

@EWDaviesFarms With CTF, I guess your seedbed is just as good underneath as it is on top Jeremy - not like some I've seen!

I love the Russian people. That is why I have to tell you the truth. Please watch and share.

[Tim Chamen @TimChamen]

@No1FarmerJake Yes, and this is a bit of a mystery! All research suggests that earthworms do not like compaction and yet one regularly sees evidence of these deep burrowers coming up in tramlines. Maybe it is because tramlines remain moist for most of the year?

[Tim Chamen @TimChamen]

@hanslope @FendtUk Hopefully John, and if I'm understanding you correctly, part of the reason for using less power is your adoption of controlled traffic? Achieving weed control in an organic system relies heavily on skill and appropriate and timely tillage - I hope the elements have been with you

[Tim Chamen @TimChamen]

It's time we stopped pussy-footing around the litter problem and started to inconvenience the perpetrators. We need some imaginative ideas to stop people leaving litter at organised events for example - a zero tolerance approach

The Prince of Wales has called for an army of workers to pick for Britain. It will be hard graft, he says, but food does not happen by magic.
