Fetf drill sale

[Tipperted]

So, hypothetically Of course, you had bought a drill with the grant and decided it’s not for you and wish to sell it.
It says you must keep it for 5 years is there a way it can be checked?

Visual inspection. Do you feel lucky?

If a farmer down the road likes the drill you have. hire it to him.

They do audits.
Visiting to check it's on farm, or pictures possibly.

Not on everything, but enough to make you think twice.
I think if you need to sell it, you can ,but you'll need to pay back some of the grant

 

[delilah]

In a sane world there would be a formula whereby you could sell it and the less years you keep the drill the higher the % of the grant you have to return. Any rule that makes liars out of folks is a stupid rule.

ha, edit, looks like you can.

Make sure you keep in contact with the buyer so you can borrow it back?

I bought a drill on the cpgs back in September 2018. Since then, our requirements have moved on, so i enquired as to the position re upgrading. As of 25th March this year I can do as I like with it. If I'd sold it earlier, id have to pay back part of the grant.

It has to be kept in uk, plenty of "hire" opportunity if it's not on your farm

iirc a cpsg drill can only be used on your own farm.
In any case, if you move it on, the buyer has to be bound to keeping the thing until the grant date expires, and that's hardly fair is it!

You might struggle to get that price, now that they are grants available

No 5yr commitment though

Where do you value it?

Depends on how many acres it has covered, but I would say less than half the price of a new one

At 5yo? Metal is better than 50%. Price is negotiable, but not that far!

 

[aangus]

I’ve put in an application for a grant and hoping to get an Erth for £10500ish plus the grant money

 

[Ormond]

I personally would risk not playing by the rules….had a check on a dribble bar through the grant….was here in an hour of the phone call…I was happy enough for visit as everything was in order ….
