ND | With all the companies selling parts or the dealers themselves for planters & combines I'd be having the equipment myself. A planter like a JD 7200 can plant a crop just as good as the new planters -just keep it up-not hard. There gets to be a myth looking around at your neighbors maybe having the latest & greatest but older equipment works as well-your better off to farm while you can-your custom helpers maybe just want your land. If you bought say a lower houred JD 9500 or 9510 or 9550 & have it paid for -farming your acres & by taking to a dealer for green light, your repairs should only amount to about $6000/yr---your custom rate your paying maybe is $32000/yr & you've got nothing to show for it at the end of the year. Buy a planter & a combine. I farm a little more than you & have a complete line of equipment & do it all myself but a little hired help in busy times. | |
