I’ve been watching for 6 months or so, I watch a few farming videos and yours I think are the most informative and professional of any I didn’t read the criticism last week but I always go on the basis that you know your own ground best and also what works for you and your system. We’re over at Banbury on a small grass farm, subsidised by property letting.
Thanks Jim for your kind comments. Up here, property to rent goes in a flash, we don’t have any though.
Very informative andrew , thanks for your time , and thanks to all farmers , your hard work and dedication keeps us all going , all the best , stay safe .
Cheers Richard. 😃👍
Thanks Andrew, another grand video, love the way you treat your dogs, there just like children in some respects aren’t they.
They are better behaved than some children!! For a 7 month old puppy/dog, Nala is unbelievable, so laid back and obedient.
So l see, very nice companions both of them🙂
Thanks Andrew great video 👍
Good one again young man! The Simba is the better tool. We had one back in 2002, brilliant machine. Have a Carrier now and it’s just not the same.
Thanks Andy, interesting! There seems more adjustment with the Express and do leaves the field leveller.
@@WardysWaffleAndrewWard plus we found the packer scraper’s/cleaners bent on the Carrier in “damp” clay
Good informative update as always Mr Ward, thanks for sharing.
Grate video. I do enjoy your Sunday morning videos. Always nice to see the big kit we dream about up in Cumbria. Thanks.
Thanks Peter, pleased you enjoy them. Hope everyone in Cumbria is good. We might be coming up for a few days around New Year.
Thankyou for posting another very informative video Excellent
Pleased you enjoyed it.
Cracking video Andrew thanks again
Beautiful sound coming from the puma, those simba tools look hard to beat!
They are, such a shame they went.
Andy. Fancy a meeting with your Simba originals. Great pains ruined them. Thanks WB
Do I fancy a meeting?
That's a good idea been able to adjust the angles, different soils different depths of work would all require different disc angles, I remember the old discs would always leave a ridge when working on ploughed land
It’s a good machine and doesn’t take too much pulling and at between 5-7 litres/ hectare of fuel, is not that costly for the yield benefit it'll bring.
Nice video again, as I mentioned before our 7r gps receiver is built into the cab roof on the exhaust side so there is nothing protruding above the cab to hook up on low trees or to get stolen we also had 900 tyres put on it to improve the traction, 2 more days and the rape should all be planted, keep up the interesting videos👍😊
All receivers should be like that now with the number that are stolen. Hope the flea beetle keep off your rape.
Hi Andrew
Another great video, informative as ever.
You ought to speak to Philip Watkins in Yorkshire, will build most things to your spec and be as well built as the good old orange kit.
Cheers Paul. Not a bad idea but anything new is likely to be more £’s than I want to spend.
Hi Andrew, we have a 6m Horsch Joker RT classic which has been a very reliable and still
has most of the original packer roller bearing on and disc bearing which are all sealed,we’ve done
Well over 20,000 acres with it.
I see the new Joker RT has a double packer roller which you can have in a similar DD style which I think would
leave a nice level finish
20,000 ac, that’s incredible. I’m trying to get one on demo but not getting on very well. The double packer would be better I think.
Great informative video Andrew, many thanks for the time and effort you put in!
As for your trolls, ignore them. The arguments on fforum re direct drilling have been going on for years and no one has come up with a definitive answer or drill, as if there was ever going to be one. Plough your own furrow, as the saying goes. 👍
Cheers Robert. So many people have told me the same! We stopped ploughing in 2003!!😬
I share your thoughts re the finish behind the Carrier, I've often thought they'd be better with a double press of some description instead of the single packer
I think you can get a double packer.
I think the express made a better job than the carrier looking at the finish on the field, just shows you how advanced Simber were in there designs, great video again 👌
It does, they were well ahead of the game and the DD roller a revelation.
Another great video thank you Andrew! Would you know what drill the A shares with seed tubes on were fitted to? If so I'll look them up and see if they'd work for something I want to make
Some sprinters had those fitted. They have a duet coulter behind the A share so band sow.
@@WardysWaffleAndrewWard I've done some searching and I don't think they're what I'm after but thank you for your reply!
@@NorthFenFarm Not a problem George, I’ll put them up again next video, a bit better next time.
We would be interested in the bourgalt knock on adapters and points. Thank you

We found the Carrier small makes a good job but it can bounce a bit unlike the carrier xl. Have to drive slower with the smaller disc.
We didn’t find it bounced but just left the surface unlevel and slabbed it.
@@WardysWaffleAndrewWard just swapped our small disc carrier for a bednar so will see how that goes.
That will be interesting, we thought the Bednar was really good and outperformed most, apart from the Joker, they were about the same.
@@WardysWaffleAndrewWard price wise the Bednar was cheaper, but it was a demo model. Vaderstad was the most expensive, Horsch and Pottinger were similar but the Kuhn was 2nd best priced.
We’ve not got onto the price for anything apart from the Bednar
Was always a shame when Simba closed its doors, the Xpress is such a good machine
Really is. A big loss to UK farmers.
Another good waffle Andrew I notice your lucky not to have many obstacles in your fields
We are but when we do, Tom usually finds them!!
@@WardysWaffleAndrewWard 😂
Great update Andrew, carrier doing a great job, bit un level in the middle behind the tractor, x press doing a great job as usual, do you not have a dedicated wash pad ? Any rape seed in? Olly could do with that carrier on some of his land!!
The wash pad is in front of store 3 which is always full of ADM’s rape so once it’s full we only use the shed to empty it, usually April/May. No rape drilled, will do next year. needed a 4 yr break from it.
Interested in the complete terragrip units for our SL. Thanks

A random question for you where the sludge has been stored do you see increased yields
Yes but also it’s so rich the crop struggles to ripen!
Bro saw a 10 m express the other week.
For sale?
Was at a rocks with the dad roller off not listed but if in for a refurb might be worth a ring?
Do you have any Horsch cylinders left for sale?!
Yes, lots!
What size are you after?
@@WardysWaffleAndrewWard After a few mixed sizes , got workshop plans a foot and want roughly 4 , biggest will need to be around 6/7" diameter , doesn't matter if it's not very long
Can I let you know next week please? Ian is back then, he knows better what we have.
@@WardysWaffleAndrewWard yes that's wonderful
Morning sorry to here about the abuse on previous video there are Alot idiots about. I like all UA-cam channels if you can educate the none farmers and the farmers bounce ideas of one another it's win win isn't it???
Maybe try a claydon terrastar if haven't all ready. They don't smear like most cultivator's just a idea.
Thanks Thomas, one of my cousins has one so I’ll see if can try it. Only concern is do they go deep enough as I’m looking for something to level the soil after s beet lifting as well.
@@WardysWaffleAndrewWard we had a demo last week after spreading pig muck was surprised how much it did. Worked well for us as long as ground not too hard.
Worth a play we pulled it 12kph with 155 puma.
Interesting. Thank you.
Still not much out there better than simba, worse thing that ever happened in agricultural machinery Great Plains buying them. Also, forward speed, pulling these at the designed speed is key, a lot don’t understand this for some reason.
Yes it was, terrible. They hadn’t a clue about our soils. Changing colour to green was the first big mistake. Tata bought Landrover a while ago but no one would know.
@@WardysWaffleAndrewWard I wonder why no one has made the solo since under a different guise. All parts are available still.
There’s alot of competition out there now with others making similar.
@@WardysWaffleAndrewWard Perhaps you can do it, start making them you have the right man in the workshop
We have! Not sure I’d want the ogro organising everything.
