We have a very special guest on the farm this week. Ernest Doe kindly brought down the brand new New Holland CR11, billed as the biggest and most powerful combine in the world, along with a 45 foot MacDon header, for us to put through its paces. In this episode James, Kieran and Sandy all take a turn at the wheel, and we get a proper technical walkthrough of what makes this machine and its radar controlled residue management so different, and how it stacks up against our fleet of Claas Lexions. There is talk too of the 61 foot header to come, and what a step up like that would really mean.
For a bit of fun we also line all five combines up in the field together, with the New Holland flanked by our four Claas machines. Away from the demo, the wheat keeps coming in, with the early drilled crops holding up well in the drought, and we get an update on the BBM accommodation trailer conversion taking shape. There is progress on the house too, and preparations to move the whole operation up to Lincolnshire.
From the world's biggest combine to five machines in one field, this is another look behind the scenes of a modern farming business.
