Ive looked at the Farming Equipment and Technology fund and a couple of items might be eligible when round 2 is announced. I was told some of the items might be eligible under an 'automation' grant - but I cant find anything that covers the above items.

And I can’t get my dairy engineer to come to do anything but emergency as they are so busy rushing to get bloody grant items installed by the deadline at the end of the month!

Some of that will be on the 30% grant SME scheme in Scotland, does England have something similar?

The Scottish Government-funded loan scheme can help SMEs by offering interest-free loans for renewable energy and energy efficiency projects.

Funnily, I was chatting with a dairy engineer last week in Market. He was having a couple of hours off and had come in with a friend who was dropping Barrens off. He reckoned he needed to get away from work for a short while.... Mad busy "fitting" kit in before the deadline, although some might not have been in 100% running order when he left, but was kinda working
