It’s fair to say that 2018 has been a challenging year for UK farmers with the bitterly cold beast from the east freezing the ground in early spring, to the scorching, dry climate that this summer has produced.
With most of the population enjoying the clear skies and soaring temperatures that we’ve had lately, it’s easy to overlook the extreme pressure that it’s put on our agricultural market affecting everything from livestock to lettuce.
Trying to work in intense conditions, the last thing any farmer needs is a breakdown in their equipment or machinery as they prepare for the harvest season…that’s where our wide variety of salvage and breaker stock comes in handy.
Ranging from CAT B breakers which can only be stripped for parts, up to salvage and used, our stock contains a varied selection of agricultural and plant machinery that’s suitable for multiple buyer’s needs.
If you have the know-how to repair a damaged vehicle or dismantle a large piece of machinery for parts, agricultural items could prove to be a high demand purchase this year.
