[QUOTE="1wlimo, post: 838252, member: 16646"] Plummer_greg have you heard of "mole plowing"? A method of moulding drains into the wet clay subsoil on leavel ground to aid in the draining of water and to reduce the water table. Maybe this could help on your sort of soil? This is not a low hp fix, and it requires skill etc. I have a mate who uses a D6 on around 1200 acres a year. The drains can last 5 to 15 years. Not ideal to use a wheel tractor as the traction required induceses bounce enevn with full ballest on board. This leaves the drains rippled and then they fail leaving a bigger problem. [/QUOTE]
