    3 pt Sickle bar mower

    I find They will handle the odd sapling of that size ok but not not in any intensity. Also the sickle bar mower will not mulch if that's important.

    Thinking about purchasing a mini Excavator for the farm Part 2

    I was wondering if anyone had tried to rent out their equipment, excavator or other to help offset the purchase price? I can only imagine there more to it than hanging out a shingle "for rent". Would one need insurance or would those renting be responsible? Maybe a registered business? I...

    Thinking about purchasing a mini Excavator for the farm ?

    I’m thinking of purchasing a mini Excavator to help on the farm and a cemetery that I look after. I currently own a small tractor with a backhoe attachment. It’s to far away for me to rent an excavator. The backhoe in comparison is slow in that one has to get off, wheel the seat around then...

    Yes I'm VERY pleased with it except for what I paid for it. The two pic are taken in mid February, the TIR (gov.) gave up plowing our rd in full so I had to blow out a lane for mail delivery.

    Grapple  Which type of grapple

    I'm interested in purchasing a grapple for my MF 1720. I'm looking at either the type that attaches to the existing bucket or the type that attaches after the bucket is removed. My farm is 75km from where I live so if I go with the grapple that attaches after the bucket is removed I will have to...

    Hi from Nova Scotia Canada

    My wife and I (both retired in 2013) have owned a small 10ac low bush Blue Berry farm for the last 15 yrs. We had hired out all the work previously. We noted that our field were getting over run by numerous weeds even though we were paying dearly for weed/pest control and the hired harvesting...
