the feelay or BRM of row cropping
One of the sweet potato farmers where I came from runs the newest equipment I've ever seen. He swaps out every year or every other year (can't remember which my dad told me). This is one of the largest sweet potato families out there, and I would not even guess at the dollar value of their equipment. It has to be phenomenally huge. It would scare me just to have that debt, even if it was short term.
I would love to drive some of it though! It has to be an awesome experience. Our little farm never had anything like that, and that may be why we ain't farmers no more.
Sure puts my 601 Workmaster to shame.:rolleyes:
Most companies have a non equity program that you trade every year and pay the difference. But you have to take the equipment. They can sell a one year old easier than a new one. Got to be stout to be accepted in the first place.Quote:
