I moved ( retired) to the country 5 years ago now and every chance I get I engage the farmers in conversation about equipment, animals and land management. They tolerate me very well, I'm going to try and get a week or two helping out ( not driving of course !) I love watching what they do across the seasons and I have a new evern bigger respect for how hard they work. Enjoy the new Blue - you were struggling to minimise that grin once or twice !!

Reading your comment makes me think you might enjoy the Olly Blogs KZitem channel. He has been doing daily short diary blogs since the day lockdown started. He is an arable farm but is diversified into many other things. It's really interesting seeing how varied each day is and how they have to be able to turn their hand to just about anything. Well worth subscribing to his channel for the daily videos.

Hi all My goodness aren’t they complicated , it would take me weeks to get my head around all the various controls. But I suppose having the first unit has helped in some regards , I’m sure you’ve got lots of jobs planned for you new tractor. So will look forward to seeing it in action . Best wishes and kind regards as always. 😀👍👍👍🚜

The 50 a lovely tractor with the Cab and loader on it all l would add too it is grass tyres tho . All our farm tractors have grass tyres on . They don’t rut up the gateways or rut up the paddocks when driving across or in the paddocks really. What other brands of tractors have you looked at and what is your budget Spend too. Never buy a tractor without a cab . Your just Wasting good money. You buy a tractor that Suits your needs and has everything you need to do the most jobs and is economical and cheap to run and is not expensive to Service and is easy to get parts for but not expensive too buy. There’s a lot of tractor brands too considering So take your time and don’t rush into buying it . Otherwise it could be Costly tho . IT will be be probably the most expensive item you buy for your farm along with implements you use to do a job really. And most important know your budget tho . I would love to know what other Tractor brands you looked at or Consider really thabks Kiwi Shayne in the UK

From an unloading with no hiab point I think it will be the heaviest we need, even bulk bags are around that. Anything on the ground that’s 1000kg will still lift enough to move but as we have the rear forks to 2.5t we should be covered. 👍
