    Hello all,
    whats the average price these times for ploughing, power harrowing, leveling and re-seeding?

    I know we have to price around but its good to hear other peoples experiences.

    Thanks

    €10/ac to spray, €35/ac to plough, €30/ac for 2 runs of a levelling harrow, charge stone picking by the hour or the tonne if needed, then €35/ac to sow with one-pass or €15/ac to sow with tined seeder. Farmers usually land level and roll themselves.

    Is the land leveller a good job? When do you use it, after powerharrowing??

    I paid 80 euro an acre this week to spray, and min till. Disc 3 times and then one pass.
    Which was very reasonable.
