    Should a dealer buy back a piece of machinery they sold you

    We bought a piece of ex-demo machinery 12 months ago off a dealer we do a fair bit of business with and after realising we aren't getting the use out of it we thought we would and looking to put funds elsewhere in the business now so I asked our rep if they'd want to buy it back at what ever he...

    Concrete over concrete thickness

    We’ve got a few very old and rough/pitted shed and indoor silage clamp floors. Ideally want a power float finish for future uses. What thickness of c40 concrete should we use to pour over the existing slab? Can’t go the full 6inch as it would cock the levels up too much. Thanks

    Newby to mixer wagon. I'm wanting to produce dry blends. Rolled cereal and beans with additional protein and minerals possibly with molasses.

    Number of tractors

    Inspired in some way by the gatecrash of the Fendt gearbox thread, just thought I'd see what folks did. 20 years ago we managed with two 6290's and a 3075, and up to three hire tractors at peak times and contractor help for beet drilling and harvesting, hedge cutting, square baling, destoning...
