No fortune in it where I am, but it works ok with farm and looking after my boys. And more importantly at the minute no big overheads.

You would need to look at prices in your own area, we are only £6 going up to £7 per day. Fully booked from June. But quiet in winter. You’ll not make a fortune but helps as a bit of diversification. Near a big city could be double or treble this rate but odd be empty if it went up much more

I’ve something similar converted to a Cattery. I’m 10 miles from anywhere albeit beside a main road and booked out all summer

IMO I wouldn’t do any contracting work. I’d dare say the BIG contractors are only making a few grand a year per tractor, and that adds up with 10-20 machines out. I always worked on the basis of you earn a £1 for an acre you own, you do need 3 acres rented for the same return and to be doing at...

Has anyone got a roll over cover made up for a trailer in N Ireland. Harsh and Covertech I’ve found in England are reasonable but postage is astronomical. I know Cunningham and couple others do the sheets but I need arch’s made up too and can’t seem to find anywhere that does the complete kit...

I’ve one bought. Supply and fit. With remotes. Galvanised finish @£2000

Tulip Centerliner. As simple as they get and idiot proof? I like mine, I’m sure there are more accurate out there for boundary settings but in the field they certainly don’t strip

As said load from a race or small pen. Don’t have tail board shiny. Also wind traffic noise affects/scares them if your on a windy site or near a busy road

Little to worry about. I honestly wish I was at your stage of life if that’s your main cause of concern

Price around I got one £1750 for zuiderburg same one at farmhand was £2500 and lynx was more iirc. Took about an hour or less to fit linkage and same time fitting pipes nicely. Very easy to do yourself.

There’s planning for an incinerator in Belfast, bloody greenies keep blocking it

Love farming. Never happier than when I’m in tractor and no one near me. It’s all the social media bulls**t that ruins a lot these days. Worrying about what everyone else is as. As long as the figures stack up I’ll be at it

Mobile opico batch dryer? Not too expensive for an old one, even if it’s worn should do that in 3-4 loads

You’ll not regret it. Posted mine to him. Just software Rs don’t need blanking plate. Runs much cooler. Wasn’t worried about power but it’s nice to have the little extra

Thanks. I’d have to get someone to install it all as tbh I wouldn’t have a clue what I’m at. But thanks anyhow.
