    Anyone in BTAP needs to have all of their measures carried out in the coming days. If you choose scanning or 5* ai then you need to have the info filled into ICBF in the coming days in order to qualify under the first round of payments!

    Time to tear into the profit monitor so!

    Lads,

    Anyone got or seen a bale splitter similar to the pic being run on a 1 series MF. eg MF 165 ? Would it have the hydraulic capacity? Would the hydraulics be fast enough?

    One down the road from me, on a Ford 4000. Likely to be around same hydraulic capacity as a MF165.
    In any case. it's operated by one double acting ram. Should be well and truely within the capacity of a 165.

    Sounds good alright . Young lads and smells ! I only use aftershave if I dont have time to shower before a funeral or something but we go through a bottle about every three weeks , the two young lads dosing themselves going to school or going playing with their mates !

    No reports today, I've a hard time getting him to let the teachers know. If they don't know, they won't do anything. There was tripping going on here too.
