[QUOTE="TWF, post: 5196600, member: 861"] Hi this is a bit of an advert really but we are giving up a 1600ac contracting farming agreement because with 25%+ increase in machinery costs since 2010 its hard to make any money.It would have needed a very large spend to keep going. The big JD tractor and Case Combine both being six years old. So the big 300hp tractor has gone and I have a 6m Claydon Hybrid drill with front fertilizer tank for sale. We used it mainly for drilling OSR and blew DAP down the front legs. The Paddle boards left it a bit open so we used to follow it with a Tilso Rake and Roll with a Vaderstad 360 bio-Drill putting on slug pellets. The rake leveled the ground and the roll patted it down. This is also for sale. So we are now down sizing to one less tractor. A JD 6215 now will be my big tractor. More DDing with the Amazone Cayanna 6001c that I will keep . I am hoping to replace the rake with a Vaderstad Carrier with the new zig zag cutting disc and straw harrow on it, to hopefully chop up cover crops and keep the Cayanna tine drill working. Trying not to go to a disc drill yet. Have a very old Moore drill in reserve. Here's hoping we have done the right thing.
