STUNNING NI MASSEY FERGUSON 100 SERIES COLLECTION PART ONE • In 2019 CMFE was invited to meet successful building contractor, ex-rally champion and Massey Ferguson collector George Robinson from Ballymena, County Antrim, Northern Ireland. We were delighted to accept the invitation and besides George’s collection he is also a keen member of Braid Valley Vintage Enthusiasts Ltd Club, who celebrate their 20th anniversary on 12 September with an extra special road run, which we will hear more of shortly.

FIVE YEARS OF HARVESTING MASSEY FERGUSON 38RS • Combine harvesters may only be used for a limited number of weeks every year but, despite this, they are perhaps one of the most important items of machinery on an arable farm – next to the tractor, says Jonathan Whitlam.

UK MARKETED MF BALERS PART TWO • Massey Harris first entered the pickup baler market with the North American produced ‘No 1’ baler shortly after the end of the Second World War. By 1951 the baler was being produced in the UK as the MH 701 model and, towards the middle of that decade, UK engineers were working on a replacement, says Dan Harris.
