Cover crop for Hands Free Hectare

30 August 2018

The Hands Free Hectare has sown its cover crop.

The hectare was prepared a week beforehand with a set of discs, rolled with some Cambridge rolls.

The Iseki tractor was programmed by Martin Abell and Jonathan Gill to complete two passes, spinning the seeds (thanks to Cotswold seeds), which was then followed by flat rolling.
