We had been running a 3.2m trailed Vicon, which was a brilliant machine, but it had nowhere near enough output to cope with the amount of mowing work we’d picked up.With about 800ha to cover, and more on the cards, we decided to go the whole hog and upgrade to a large set of triples. A few dealers sent out models for us to try, including Fendt, Krone, John Deere, Pottinger and Vicon.Krone and John Deere were probably our favourites, followed closely by Vicon, which was a far more affordable option. We were ready to do a deal on a set that our local dealer, Farmstar, had in stock, but they were sold just before we got there.
