Details for the Tractor Ploughing Masterclass

Product ID: 17094

Welcome to the Ploughing Masterclass! Spend an exciting three hours learning how to plough a real field using a real tractor, guided by experienced instructors on this hands-on farming experience. More than just tractor driving, this masterclass teaches you the skill, planning, and precision behind professional field ploughing. You will discover how farmers decide between disc or mouldboard ploughs, when to plough or leave land fallow, and how weather conditions can influence every decision. You will also learn how to set up the tractor and attach the ploughing equipment correctly, with depth adjustments made depending on soil type and crop plans. If conditions allow, you will then head into the field to try it yourself. That first furrow is key, steady control and a straight line are essential (easier said than done!), before overlapping each pass for a clean, even finish. This Nottinghamshire ploughing masterclass is a fun, immersive experience that combines learning with plenty of hands-on time in the tractor, the perfect way to experience real farming life.
