Ploughing rules Clarification

[chap]

Over recent years the trailed plough and ride on tractor is becoming the accepted normal for Horticultural ploughing, mainly the Ransomes TS 42 plough, over the years some poughs have been fitted with different mouldboards this has lead to some strange combinations, that were not fitted at time of manufacture and therefore not legal for vintage horticultural ploughing attached is a page from the TS42 manual showing the boards that are allowed to qualify or compete in the National Championship. This rule applies to other makes of plough also a trusty plough should be fitted with a trusty board, and so on. so if you want to plough with a Ransome YL167 board it should be on a Ransome plough ,

Also attached is a list of approved Vintage Horticultural Tractors and a copy of the rules.

So if you wish to Qualify or plough in nationals please ensure your plough and Tractor conforms to the above,
