Horwood Bagshaw Parts Upgrade: Kevin Mannes’ thoughts on the RYAN NT Retrofit Discs on his Scaribar, Coleambally, NSW

In Coleambally, New South Wales, Kevin Mannes has been using RYAN NT Retrofit Double Discs on his Horwood Bagshaw Scaribar for seven planting seasons. Specialising in cereal and rice planting, Kevin shares how these discs have delivered consistent results across challenging conditions, making them a vital part of his farming operations.

Consistent Performance Across Varied Conditions after swapping out the Horwood Bagshaw Parts

Kevin’s fields present a mix of hard and soft soils, with some areas featuring heavy trash or wet conditions typical of rice paddocks. The RYAN NT discs have consistently handled these challenges. “I’ve found that it will go into anything that we’ve put it up against,” Kevin said. “Hard, soft, the wet rice country – it seems to get through that alright.”

 

Whether working with tough soils or high trash loads, the discs have proven reliable. “Fair bit of trash doesn’t seem to worry it,” Kevin added, underscoring the discs’ ability to maintain performance without clogging.

A Valuable Alternative to Knife Points

Before switching to discs, Kevin used knife points on his tyne machine. While knife points have no moving parts, the discs have proven to be the better choice for handling tough ground. “Going into hard ground, you can’t compare them,” Kevin explained, emphasising the advantage of discs in difficult conditions.

 

The switch to RYAN NT Retrofit Double Discs has enabled Kevin to achieve more consistent seed placement and handle the demands of grain and rice planting with ease.

Kevin operates a 33-tyne Horwood Bagshaw Scaribar paired with a 235-horsepower Case tractor. The retrofit process was straightforward, allowing Kevin to upgrade without the need for a completely new machine. “No issues pulling this machine,” Kevin said, highlighting its smooth operation even in challenging conditions.

 

For farmers maintaining older equipment, incorporating RYAN NT discs into their Horwood Bagshaw parts replacement strategy offers an effective way to extend the life of their machinery while boosting performance.
