    Just bought a 450 esp. heated grips dog matt £5600. They are selling a lot of them I'm hoping itl do us a good turn, I know a few farms running them and they have been pleased. Service intervals are the downfall to keep the warranty.

    Lamb macs

    Haha funny this should pop up, Lammacs used to be good but as mentioned above they have become an absolute waste of money. All other brands the same. This year I approached a local plastics firm to make some form myself, still biodegradable but we altered the ingredients in the plastics which...

    With the associated costs, it's a risky business jumping in and out of things mind isn't it. When your out now you need a fair lump to get back in, no guarantees that one years trade follows the other.

    Concentrate Price Tracker

    I'd be interested to know people's thoughts on this? A local firm, who we buy our lamb creep off is selling this product this year, have been sceptical of a product which we have used for many a year recently from another firm, sometimes it's grand other times it's very dusty and the stock...

    Any opinions on forfarmers ewebol 18Nut? I had a quote today of £339 for 6 Tonne blown in. Would buy 30tonne annually off them during lambing seems my price isn't as competitive, and last year I wasn't overly convinced it had been as good as we had come to expect.
