A day centred around fodder beet - drilling in the John Deere 6R250 and Horsch precision drill, washing and chopping with the Cross Engineering ‘Elephant’ washer and Harvesting in the Vervaet Beeteater Beet harvester.
The last of these happens to go terribly wrong today after a positive week, leaving us with a repair job next week before we can finish any harvesting!
