[QUOTE="B R C, post: 8012143, member: 714"] If you are a smallish arable unit, to do all the work yourself these days you really need to be able to maintain/repair secondhand kit and also like doing it. I’m not some one who enjoys looking after kit that has seen its best days so shared machinery with neighbour for 5 years which worked ok, but I got a bit bored driving tractors and with another business(now sold) and plenty of building works to do I decided to have neighbours do the contracting so I can concentrate on creating as much passive income from buildings as possible, and also doing a fair bit of fabrication work, so much so now starting a separate company for it. So still busy but feel I’m in charge of everything rather than the farm in charge of me. I still look after grain store/ drying. In short plenty of different ways of going things but the main thing is you need to be prepared to change things, go in the direction that is best for you. [/QUOTE]
