Dribbling

I spotted this over the hedge on my ride this morning. I had to zoom and the light was a bit poor in so the focus is a bit suspect.

It looked quite impressive making it's way down the field. It is dribbling slurry onto the ground which is pumped quite a distance via the umbilical which it is dragging behind it. The benefit of spreading this way reduces the loss of valuable Nitrogen into the atmosphere as Ammonia (and it smells less). The umbilical saves the tractor having to trundle back to the yard after each tanker is spread.
