Massey Ferguson Farm Implements & Machinery Volume 3 1977-1988
In Part 3 of this 3-part set we move on to 1977–88, exploring implements and machines closely associated with the 500 and 600 tractor ranges. At the end of the programme we look forward to the 1990s.
From ploughing and other cultivations, manure and slurry handling, drilling, mowing and forage harvesting to combining and baling, this programme has a feast of Massey Ferguson farm activities to show you. They have been re-created by MF enthusiasts using original or authentically restored machinery and tractors.
You will see that this programme completes a remarkable undertaking carried out by Dennis Burston and George French, supported by colleagues and family in the south-west of England. Altogether they have assembled a hundred items of MF implements, machines and combine harvesters, nearly all of which have been shown working. The three-DVD series, which covers the thirty years from 1958 to 1988, also includes some 44 different MF tractors operating with the equipment.
