    Sheepdog required

    I need a sheepdog but the problem being I only have 300 ewes and would maybe struggle to keep a young dog busy enough. Nothing sophisticated required really just gathering sheep and driving field to field. Does anyone sell on older dogs which aren’t up to working a hill farm anymore? Assuming a...

    Grain drying, trench conveyor or auger set in floor?

    Disc harrow for reseeding work.

    Potentially looking at buying an ex-demo mounted Great Plains X-press 3.0m ST, spring reset (not hydraulic)and the levelling 'bar' before the packer roller. Only 1 year old and not done a lot of work. Just trying to get an idea of what people are paying new/used so I can decide if it is a good deal.
