Who would have thought a dribble bar could be so clever.

This 12m creation from Irish firm Agquip uses Bluetooth to send details of flow rate and the amount spread to mobile phone or tablet.

The app can be downloaded onto any android device and allows the driver to keep tabs on how much they are  spreading from the cab

It’s also fitted with an adapted Vogelsang macerator that has an automatic reversing system and alarm. This prevents it getting blocked and damaged when spreading more fibrous material.

Prices for the 12m bar start at £17,000.
