Western South Australia
Yeah Ham i will try and dig some more photos up, we have got Knuckey press sow modules on it. The one you can see in the last pic is a modified manutec press wheel and arm we put in front of the wheel, because the knuckeys wouldn't fit, the wheel on the combine comes forward when lifted. We dont have any rocks.

With the knuckeys we put the seeed and fert down one tube, therefore we were able to put the tynes in the ground a fair way, there was no where near enough break out but it did a job and we are more than happy with the crops we have this far in.

These pictures were taken on the 20th of June sowing Kaspa Field Peas.

The treflan rate is 1.5 l/ha @50 L of water per ha, we are trying to nail the ryegrass.
The nozzles are lechler 01 IDK's and the water rate/ha is about as low as we can get it because of our ground speed.
We were actually spraying dual out the back boom for toad rush control, in Canola we were putting out incecticide for red and black headed cock shaeffer. The main tank is 2000L of straight water, and then we have two saddle tanks on the front with neat chemical with Dosmatic direct injectors putting the chemical in each boom, it has been quite effective too.
