Having caught up earlier in the year with Armathwaite contractor Jason Robleys reverse drive Fendt 828 Vario a phone call from the above to say he would be out in the fields working with his ‘bigger one’ a 355hp Fendt 936 Vario was a filming opportunity not to be missed!
With a long straight run in the field the big Fendt and it’s Reco Mengele chopper was absolutely flying through the windrows and I must admit I was struggling trying to keep up with it!
Keeping up admirably was the trailer team of a John Deere 6630 Premium, JD 6530 Premium and Valtra T214 ((thanks to the operator for letting me get a close up on the model designation, never easy on a Valtra!) pulling Bailey, Richard Western and Herron trailers.
With field work now virtually over for the year and the dark nights drawing in I’ll be posting a number of compilation videos of my highlights of the season over the coming few months which hopefully you will all enjoy over the long winter period.
