There will never be a quick fix for badly damaged fields Tom as you always need to have the right conditions to repair fields from heavy vehicles and the weather this year has been awfully difficult for all farmers to deal with but there will be a time when you can look back and say do you remember that really wet year in 2024 when every field was completely saturated with water and the mess that was caused, you will never have a perfect time because there’s just not enough time in a day to get everything done and sorted but with some good kit you will get it right eventually!

@stevewareing8525 24 күн бұрын

Team Pemberton on the CASE & the Hurlimann, the problem areas in the fields will repair. It might not happen as quickly as you would like but you are probably better off than some other farms. Just keep doing what you are doing, adapt and overcome, you the Ginger warrior and the team can find a way around most problems. Remember it doesn't have to be pretty so long as it works.👍. PS: Hope the Germany trip goes well.

We bought a set of harrows like that 4 years ago and I would never go back to normal harrows! These harrows are great because of the leveling bars and the weight of the cast harrows, on half dry ground it can leave bare patches like a seed bed!

@mrvanahead 24 күн бұрын

A harrow like that is used a lot in the Netherlands to harrow after cows grazed a field. Or in spring to even out mole piles. We have a worn out 40+yr old one. But i never pick it up, just leave it on the ground. It doesn't warp that easy. Also great for evening out.

@JDseller1 24 күн бұрын

I have had to rut fields like that to get corn silage (maize) harvested. I am lucky enough that our ground usually freezes deep enough to greatly repair the compaction over the winter. I do not think your ground ever freezes there so the compaction is a longer term issue. Keep your head up Tom, you had few choices with just about all of them bad. Really wet or dry years are beyond our control. At least with livestock you can keep them health and producing which will help offset the crop ground problems.

@iainkilpatrick106 24 күн бұрын

One of them rollers which spikes the ground would help with compaction, drainage and let the soil breath. Push a dealer for you to demo and do a review. If a good job they would sell bucket loads of them. Fermanagh is a very county and they subsoil the ground to help with drainage. We have wet fields and we have to plought evey 6/7 years to help drainage. Gets a dead pan on the top with all the slurry.

We own the a same sort of chain harrow but from the brand Jako. We also use it after grazing, its a great way to distribute the left over cow patty’s for faster intake in the soil so the field gets fertilized a little more spread out instead of you getting those lil bobs of grass everywhere

@PaddyGun 24 күн бұрын

I know the feild is probably longer one way but I don’t understand why the harrowing was done in the same directions as the ruts? Would it not even out a bit better if the harrow was ran perpendicular to the ruts .

@jamesmarsh4957 24 күн бұрын

That has recovered quite well really looks ok now for what it was like and really if you had not have cut it would it ever have dried out , I doubt it , could you not get hold of a mole plough in the Autumn to break up the compaction a bit if it dry's out , just a thought I have done that before where I use to do some milking and that land was drained like yours but it worked and helped with the drainage , Your maize will catch up and it was a bit later going in , don't stress it always works out , nature always balances it's self out , ( I worry about everything as well )
