Seale Agri Limited, which operates from Manor Farm, Chilcomb near Winchester, will sell, service and support Claydon products in an area bordered by the Isle of Wight in the south and M4 motorway in the north, and from Worthing in the east to Bournemouth in the west.

To underline its commitment to the Claydon brand, Seale Agri has added a 4.8m Hybrid T trailed drill, 6m TerraStar light rotary cultivator and 7.5m Straw Harrow to its demonstration fleet.

Seale Agri’s owner John Seale, said, “During my career I have seen and tried all types of drills and crop establishment systems. The Opti-Till System is as good as it gets and now is the right time to become involved with Claydon.”

Rob Dunk, sales manager for Claydon in the UK and ROI, added “We are delighted to be working with Seale Agri, a highly-professional, family-owned business which, like Claydon, has a long history in the agricultural machinery and farming sectors.
