What Do You Need?

These days, there are countless different farm equipment manufacturers, each with dozens of different models. Your first step when shopping for new farm equipment should be to narrow your focus to a few models. The best way to do this is by asking yourself what exactly you need and expect in your farm equipment. Think about what your current equipment can do, and what you would want it to be able to do. Determine which tasks currently take up most of your time/effort, and look for new farm equipment that will help make those tasks easier. If there are new techniques or crops you’d like to try, figure out what kind of equipment you’d need for them. Basic factors like the size of your land and types of crops you are currently growing are also important to bear in mind. 

What Is Your Budget?

New farm equipment isn’t cheap, and there are a lot of extra expenses like fuel, maintenance, and insurance that you’ll want to track. That’s why, no matter what type of farm equipment you decide to purchase, you should always create a budget. Careful budgeting will ensure that you don’t spend more than you can afford on a piece of new farm equipment.
