What's the low down on these ??
I have done quite a bit of research but not actually visited any current users.
Background:
Worked abroad for 18 months on cattle farms , NZ, USA and Australia but 25 years ago. Have been arable on my farm for 22 years but helped with dairy farms and TB testing all through . Anyhow, I am been forced into grass and cattle farming going forward ( HLS scheme) and have no infrastructure for cattle handling . Farm is a round mile long and long and thin with lots of roads so think building three handling pens in different locations and then moving a mobile force pen, race and crush to deal with jobs . Have tractor and handler available .
Looked at Richie, Arrowhead and IAE systems and also Te Parri but they don t do a full mobile system but maybe ok for static at home? Any views or opinions ?
Know it's going to be £ 25 k plus
Thanks in advance
