Hay tedding price per acre?

[DeeGee]

As above I just need an idea what is the going rate for tedding grass please: will be done at least four or five times for hay, but just need the price per acre/ pass.

 

[deere 6600]

4 quid an acre

 

[Boohoo]

£6

 

[Speedstar]

£7 with the contractors fuel

 

[Fendt516profi]

£6.53 acre NAAC price

 

[farmgineer]

Size of the plot and road travel from to each time needs to be factored in. I’m charging £7.50 Per time for a 4 acre plot about a mile from our house but I leave the tractor there And use the car to get home while the job is on as I’m doing the cut/make/bale and cart as a job and that fits for me.
The latest NAAC price for 2020 is listed at £7.10 on their website?

 

[Fendt516profi]

£7.50 a time or £7.50 per acre per time

 

[Skimmer]

I'd charge £40 hour & get Deere 6600 to do it.

 

[deere 6600]

I'd charge £40 hour & get Deere 6600 to do it.

I'll crack the jokes I'm probably too cheap when I think about it but as long as it pays the 936 and the 20 rotor scattering machine be fine

 

[Fendtbro]

4 quid an acre

Be better off staying at Home.. Small tedders are far too slow, wide fast Tedders are expensive and fragile...

Those guys eho divide fields into 5 ac paddocks should be paying double for mowing baling. etc

Per acre per time, so each time I start the tractor it’s £30. Usually get it in about 7 tedding’s so £210 for the job, if it rains and needs more then the price goes up

 

[aangus]

I charge £4/acre plus farmers diesel

 

[feilding]

I charge £4/acre plus farmers diesel

Not worth starting tractor for that.

So agree with that sentiment... "It's about 3 acres, and wont take you long". Arrive and find 5 patches, all shapes and sizes. 2nd time, I suggested they remove the leccy fences...

 

[Hooby Farmer]

Paid a guy £4/acre on Saturday 15ac field. Wasnt worth hooking the Bob on.

[Grassman]

Why have prices gone down? £4 acre ffs. We got that 20 years ago with a tractor and tedder worth £10k total

 

[Phil P]

Won’t put the tedder on for less than £7/ac!
