Along with new injection methods to reduce odours and run-off, we\u2019ve had clients keen to get started with their slurry work as early as January. And thanks to Michelin\u2019s agricultural tyres, we\u2019ve been able to do it for them this year without damaging the subsoil.\u201d<br \/>\nWinfield endeavours to order only the best equipment. His team pull a 20,000 litre Joskin Quadra slurry injector with a John Deere 6190R tractor and both machines use Michelin\u2019s flotation tyres.<br \/>\nThe John Deere tractor is fitted with Michelin\u2019s VF 600\/60 R 30 and VF 710\/60 R 42 XeoBib tyres, which offer increased ground protection as they are designed to carry heavy loads at lower pressures, minimising rutting and soil damage. They can also be operated at a pressure of just 1 bar in the field and on the road, meaning pressure adjustments are not needed between jobs.<br \/>\n\u201cWe were buying the best machines, so I went for the best tyres on both and you can\u2019t touch them for quality,\u201d Winfield says. \u201cThe XeoBib tyres, in particular, have been worth their weight in gold because the Ultraflex Technology ensures the footprint in the field is unbeatable.\u201d<br \/>\nAt the loads being carried, Shorts Agricultural has the front tyres inflated to just 8psi and the rears at 12psi, both on the road and in the field.<br \/>\nThe Joskin slurry injector is fitted with Michelin\u2019s 750\/60 R 30.5 CargoXBib tyres, running at 26psi. These offer a significantly larger footprint than remould truck tyres commonly used on farm trailers, which are often inflated to 90+ psi; thereby helping to reduce subsoil damage without compromising grip.<br \/>\n\u201cOur Michelin account manager showed us that the XeoBib and CargoXBib tyres were just the way to go for this application,\u201d Winfield says. \u201cOnce you have the pressures set correctly, they\u2019re the best tyres for the job, and our clients have been pleased with the results.\u201d<br \/>\nThe John Deere 6190R spends approximately 70 per cent of its time operating with the slurry tanker. Together, the combination operates within a 35 mile radius of the company\u2019s base in Lyndhurst Road, Ascot.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>An Ascot-based agricultural contractor is seeing the benefits of getting out in the field earlier to do slurry work without damaging subsoil, thanks to Michelin\u2019s XeoBib and CargoXBib flotation tyres.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[11,15],"tags":[240,239,238],"class_list":["post-1413","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-agri-tyres","category-michelin","tag-agri-tyres-2","tag-cargoxbib","tag-michelin-xeobib"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v25.5 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>In a hurry to slurry?
