Grain Butler hire in Dorset

[Brisel]

Anyone hiring these out in the south west? Asking for a friend.

He has tried BDC, BK Grain, Dorset Grain. Will try Evans & Pearce too.

Interesting one. Cheers. Worth asking. Dorset Grain have an office up there.

That's kind, but it's not for me. A local contract should farmer. I don't know the details of how much, how deep etc.

We had one of those, sold it, waste of time.
We found it left a hard crust about a foot thick below the grain it had drawn up from below. The pressure/downforce the 'float' puts on the top of the grain is not inconsiderable. If you want to mix a heap a grain butler is not the answer IMO, unless you want to spend weeks doing it or have a very localised problem in the back of a shed.

That’s not my experience with them.
