A competitor is about to start the penultimate pass of the allotted plot. Along with a well turned furrow and neat ends a high degree of accuracy is needed as each plot is a given width and the final pass requires all the soil to be turned with no missed ground. A tape measure is a vital requirement in the tool box. http://www.ploughmen.co.uk/2013.htm
