💷 Save £75 on the Honda HHB 25 Petrol Leaf Blower 🍂

After an exceptionally hot and dry summer, many parts of the UK are experiencing a "false autumn", with stressed trees shedding leaves earlier than usual. Alongside hedge cuttings and other garden debris, the Honda HHB 25 makes clearing outdoor spaces quick and easy.

Powered by Honda's reliable 4-stroke engine, it delivers strong airflow without the need to mix fuel and oil, helping keep paths, driveways, patios and lawns looking their best as we move into autumn.

Offer valid until 30 November 2026, while stocks last.

Ready to bring those hedges back into shape? 🌿✂️

The main bird nesting season has ended, making September a better time for heavier hedge maintenance and reshaping. Before starting, always check carefully for active nests, as wild birds and nests in use remain protected.

Honda hedge trimmers combine reliable 4-stroke performance with balanced handling to help achieve a clean, precise finish.

Our demonstration team have been out in the Lincolnshire Fens today, supporting our Sutterton branch with the Horizon 6m DSX No-Till Drill, paired with a New Holland T7.225. 🚜

Drilling a cover crop into a subsoiled and pressed field, the demonstration showed the versatility of the Horizon DSX and proved it is capable of far more than direct drilling into stubble.

A strong performance from an impressive combination!

🎯 Keep your implement exactly where it needs to be with Raven Side Shift Implement Steering.

Now available from Ernest Doe, Raven Side Shift technology provides active implement guidance, helping compensate for sideways drift and keeping your implement accurately aligned with its intended path.

By automatically shifting the implement left or right, the system provides precise correction independently of the tractor – particularly valuable when working on slopes or in conditions where implements naturally pull away from the guidance line.

🌱 Improved implement accuracy
🎯 Automatic side-to-side correction
⛰️ Helps compensate for drift on slopes
📏 Greater pass-to-pass consistency
🚜 Ideal for precision drilling, planting and high-value crop applications

The result? More accurate field operations, reduced crop damage and greater confidence that both tractor and implement are exactly where you want them.

Precision doesn't stop at the tractor.

Raven Side Shift Implement Steering is available from Ernest Doe. Contact your local Ernest Doe Area Sales Manager to find out more.
