Hi,
I have 15 acres of permanent pasture with lots of moss and mole hills, a few ant hills and sheep. Having researched I think a tyne harrow is the way forward. Our chain harrow just bumps over all but the loosest mole hills.
Has anyone tried the Oxdale 8 foot fixed weeder tyne harrow? How effective / robust is it?

Do you have any way of weighing your chain harrows down a bit?
Fixing concrete blocks to the chains/heavy posts etc.
I've seen folk doing this before and it worked well as well as saving some money.

Good point. I'll give it a go as its an easy test.
