Agricultural Equipment: A Buyers Guide

Hello! My name is Stanley and this is my guide to buying new and used agricultural equipment. I was inspired to start writing this guide following my move from the big city to a small country farm. When I arrived, I didn't have the first idea about the practicalities of farming, I just had a romantic idea of driving a tractor across a field. Thankfully, some of the folk from neighbouring farms took the time out to give me some solid advice on how to buy the equipment I would need to operate a successful farm. I hope you like this blog.
