Abstract
Machinery is one of the highest costs in farming today. It is not unusual for capital investment in machinery to be 20 to 30 percent of the total investment in the farm.
On an annual basis, expenditure directly attributable to machinery can be 40 per cent or more.
This article cannon be a panacea for everyone to reduce machinery costs - each farm is different. But some of the issues might be of help.
