Steady pulse rate…vining pea drilling at Crows Hall Farm, Downham Market, Norfolk (left), is carried out by Holbeach Marsh Co-operative with military precision in almost ideal conditions. The co-operative is almost half way through drilling 4200ha (10,500 acres).

Mr Potter uses an Accord 3m, four-row combination drill to carry out cultivation and drilling in a single pass.
