The day starts with the Horsch Leeb battling through a crop of maize to apply some PK fertiliser to give the crop a boost after our agronomist recommendation. The block of land is new and previously let fallow for some years so we’re contending with soil nutrition as well as flea beetle damage!

In the afternoon Steve goes to Smallridges to collect our old John Deere 9700i from their yard as our current machine is going through some teething problems in relation to the blades staying tight on the drum - a pretty serious issue!

Tony cuts grass with the Pottinger mowers and a 6R250 then joins Harry on trailers to take the grass to the AD plant next door.

The Samson tanker is finally back running and spreads digestate throughout the day and hopefully will perform well from now onward.
