Just looked at some for sale. They look a lot of money for not much.
Funnily enough it was his first day! Have to laugh at the clothing some of them turn up in. Even some of the regulars don’t wear wellies or waterproofs. 1 of the women was refused entry onto the bus the other day to go home because her clothes were so muddy.View attachment 1010492First day out ? with the trainers on nice little tick

You don’t supply waterproofs and wellingtons to encourage your staff to work in foul weather it will increase productivity at harvest time gives them a feeling there are appreciated and they will work harder for you . you give a little bit to gain a lot . This has been proven at one of the largest veg growers I get involved with. It’s a win-win situation. If you supply it with your logo on it it’s tax relief on it as well.Funnily enough it was his first day! Have to laugh at the clothing some of them turn up in.

How does it work with tax, surely they are not all self employed? Cant believe you can get that number of staff for two hours for £20, do they get a free veg pack to or anything, it would barely cover fuel and washing their clothes after, you must be expecting a massive labour cost increase soon.Funnily enough it was his first day!

a single row top lifter would suit you - then just hand trim which could be done in a shed https://standen.co.uk/products/harvesters/simon-leek-harvesterI’d like to try one if I could find one, but all these go to Riverford and have to meet strict criteria which would be difficult to achieve unless done by hand.
Exactly what I’d like to try, just need to try to find a s/h one.a single row top lifter would suit you - then just hand trim which could be done in a shed https://standen.co.uk/products/harvesters/simon-leek-harvester
you might find a s/h two row lifter pretty cheap out this way
