Farmers prepared to tackle field drainage issues themselves are being catered for by a larger tractor-mounted trench excavating machine from AF Trenchers.
The AFT250 is fitted with a fixed-angle digging boom and self-adjusting spoil augers, and can dig trenches up to 400mm wide to a depth of more than 1.6m.
High-grade steels help keep overall weight in check without compromising strength, says AF Trenchers, and close coupling to a 150-300hp tractor minimises the impact of its 2,000kg mass.
