We don't use a combi, so its not relevant.
I've never needed to buy a new plough as there's always good secondhand available, last one was 3.5 k .
We're Maize and veg , and Fodder beet growers so that power harrows we have get used for that as well , as do the rolls , plus pushing down the odd stone in a grass field before cutting.
Last one I bought was 1500 iirc
rolls were about 2000 , long time ago now tho .
Just keep my eyes open for something clean and not used a lot , never know when something will come along.
By that reasoning, the cost of @le bon paysan ‘s erth shouldn’t matter either then, as he will likely be using it on grass anyway.
His 9k euro drill, split 4 or 5 ways, combined with lower fuel costs, make this DD lark look far cheaper than your plough based system.
I once bought a 3m Moore drill for £3k. Now just imagine how cheap it would have been if I’d shared it with a neighbour, as he suggested…
