Major ‘on-site’ machinery dispersal sale (auction) events come up just a handful of times in any given year here in Ireland; they are a more regular occurrence in the UK – thanks to the availability of a bigger pool of equipment.
One such on-site sale was held at Eye Farm (Spalding) yesterday (May 10). The auction comprised of tractors, a combine harvester, a telescopic handler, a self-propelled sprayer and a scattering of implements and machinery. It took place in Lincolnshire (England).
The auction was conducted by Brown & Co.
This report focuses solely on the implements and machinery present. Look out for our earlier article, detailing the prices fetched by tractors and self-propelled equipment.
