New Holland harvesting event by Ernest Doe & Sons

Ernest Doe hosted a New Holland Harvester Demonstration to show off some of the latest harvesting equipment.

Farmers Guide attended the Ernest Doe harvest Demonstration in Mickfield, near Stowmarket, Suffolk. The event featured a range of working and static New Holland machines, including two NH combines, two balers, a telehandler and a T7 tractor.

The event attracted a good response from local farmers who took the opportunity to watch the New Holland equipment in action during a typical harvest day. The New Holland CR9.90 combine was fitted with a 35ft Macdon FD2 Header, while the CR8.90 combine was fitted with a 35ft Vari Feed Header.

Matt Boardley, Ernest Doe Ne wHolland Harvester brand manager said, “with a shorter harvest season this year, it was a perfect opportunity to get togethe with our farming customers and friends and showcase the New Holland harvester range. We were delighted with the turn out and took a couple of orders although we still have some availability for orders to be taken for delivery in time for harvest ’23. Thanks to everyone who attended and showed their support – we really appreciate it”

The equipment was working on R H Forest & Co’s farm, with the crop being Limagrain‘s Astronomer milling wheat.

James Forest told Farmers Guide, “so far it’s looking good, with this weather we have had some good yields. Despite it being so dry, the ground isn’t too bad either, I think we could drill straight through this. ”
