Cultivation equipment set to woo visitors

Family-run firm Grange Machinery will exhibit a number of new innovations at LAMMA 2025.

Based in Holderness, East Yorkshire, the company manufactures agricultural machines and wearing parts that offer affordable solutions to farmers across the UK, Europe and as far as New Zealand, recently launching in Australia.

The product range aims to helps reduce crop establishment costs while improving soil structure and efficiency in the field. Machines are designed to be adaptable and can transform existing systems, offering greater flexibility and efficiency.

A brand new development is the front-mounted disc bar, designed to be fitted to the front linkage of the tractor to allow the user to add pre-cultivation pass ahead of a drill or to aid in a primary cultivation system.

Wavy discs

The disc bar consists of a full width set of wavy discs to cut through trash and cover crops in front of the drill. This clears the path for the drill to improve seed-to-soil contact and aid in trash flow. It can also prevent crop residue blocking the coulters.

Grange Machinery is renowned for working closely with farmers to refine and enhance its products.

This has led to the development of a new point design, says managing director Rhun Jones.

“We are always driving to offer wearing parts of the best quality and durability. Having machines spread over several continents – all with varying soil types – has led Grange to develop point technology further.

The addition of tungsten tiles and a slight change to the angle of the wings has allowed the wearing part to perform even better in some of the most challenging and abrasive soil types that we see machines working in.

“The combination of tungsten paste and tiles now sees the wearing part durability increase significantly. It will also offer the key elements of low disturbance loosening, that is positive soil uplift with minimal surface disturbance.”

Tine-drill toolbar

Grange Machinery will also show its new Tine-Drill Toolbar, designed to work with a variety of different front tanks supplying seed and fertiliser to the drill coulters.

Features include individual ground contour technology, hydraulic seed depth control, the option of a hydraulic levelling board system and rear double harrow. The first production machines have proved themselves in the field this season.

Also fresh from being put through its paces for the first time this year is the new Top-Tilth Cultivator.

This features a dual disc system that is hydraulically lifted/lowered independently of the frame to offer a 3-in-1 cultivation implement.

It can be used as a low disturbance loosener with the discs lifted out or as a full width shallow disc cultivator with the legs hydraulically lifted out or as a seedbed preparation tool with all components engaged. It has also been put to good use with a seeder.

Grange Machinery will be on stand 18.520 at LAMMA 2025.
