Now this takes me back to the 1990s as i was doing the exact same as your doing there on a Worcestershire Farm, Ours was a Wright -Rain wheel and pump at the side of the pool was powered by a PTO on a Ford 6600 tractor" which we used on Sugar beet and 250acres of Potatoes, (How are the Blisters on your Hands) Lol Great clip, .👍

I've never worked on a farm that used irrigation so that was interesting to learn about, and we all know you love a good ABBA sing along mate haha.

Nice Hose reel/traveler setup. Is that a Nelson SR series big gun? Looks like a SR150/200

This is a great video we farm potatoes in a peat fen as well and I am looking at getting a travelling irrigator like you have! If you have a minute to answer a few questions I have before getting one please reach out!
