@MattMcDonald013 Check out the BCG. There was some literature produced back in 2007 if I remember correctly

Can anyone point me in direction of any literature on Cutting Crops for hay? Any real world experience or paper based info would be appreciated 👍🏻

Anyone having trouble with mud behind the tyres while rolling- give this a go. Keeps the Roller much cleaner. Bit of old Feeder Chain works a treat

@Mistadamage Another one they have snuck in is “Windfall Tax”. If you’re lucky enough to have purchased some land which gets re-zoned they are hitting you for 50% tax on unrealised capital gain also. Even if you haven’t sold it and want to keep sitting on it.

Interesting the new super rules will require unrealised capital gains tax to be paid on farmland owned by super funds. Similar principle to death duties, & I suspect with a similar outcome: forced asset sales, especially with land values going skywards. Another hit on farmers

Does anyone know the guy in Albury who repairs these Farmscan Air Seeder Monitors? I got his phone number on Twitter previously but have lost his number. TIA

@andrewefridgway Adjust the Allen Key on the valve. Fixed ours up. We had the same problem with direct heading. It’s on the rear of the hydraulic block on our 2152. Turn it inwards.

@Antfarm81 @CaseIHAus @Case_IH Had a similar thing happen to me a few years back. Turned out we had the chain come off behind the clean grain elevators, near the two tensioner sprockets. It collected a wire going nowhere which had a dummy plug in it, which was an earth. Check that it is not damaged.
