Key contract retained Pesticides reduction Oxford University Parks have


purchased two Tracmaster BCS Commander Flail Mowers. Walter Sawyer, Park Superintendent said We opted for the BCS Commander with the 80cm flail mower as the best machine for the job. The fact that it can also operate other implements is a bonus” The BCS Commander is a professional grass management


system designed for those who need a ‘no limits’ machine. It is capable of operating a number of implements including a flail mower, scythe, rotary mower, hay rake and mini baler. There is also a bank version of the machine for use on slopes up to 40o

practices have proved a key factor in sports and amenity contractor Complete Weed Control (CWC) retaining its contract with the Vale of Glamorgan Council embracing a comprehensive programme of highway weed management. “We won this contract on a 30/70 quality price model,” said Alan


Abel, director. CWC’s technical “Proven health and safety procedures and a good


track record enabled us to retain it for a further three years.“ For the Council Highway


Routine Maintenance Manager, Andrew Gwinnell commented “Environmentally we are committed to applying the least amount of chemicals we can and the Weed-IT is a good piece of equipment that keeps the quantity applied to a minimum. It also reduces the risk of drift because the spray nozzles are totally enclosed within a


protective cover.” Abel added “The Weed-IT system we use closely controls the quantity applied because it targets chlorophyll in the plant, so it will not spray any liquid on to hard surfaces where there are no weeds.Typically it can reduce the quantity of plant chemical applied by 70-80 percent,”
