IMO the minimum the crush would want to be is 30'. 20' is a bit short it will only hold 2-3 cows or 3-4 stores

Thry also charge a great price. It might oay in a dairy situation where cows ate in andbout of a yard every day ornin a substantial beef operstion where flow of stock is important.

I got a quote the time I was looking for PP. They wanted double the amount thevlad I got charged. As well.of thete was an objection they wanted extra to handle it as well as costs involved. My man is just charging for costs involved

it’s one job that pricing shouldn’t really come into it. Depending on a farmers age, it could there for up to 50 years of their farming life.

So the job needs to right and that includes safety at top of the list followed closely by being a one-man/woman band when it comes to putting cattle through it.

So saving a few hundred but not getting the job ya want is not helpful. That said, paying top dollar doesn’t guarantee top quality either but it’s important to see their work/get feedback from others etc.

getting the planning right will be the best money you’ll spend on the project.

There is a lot of good lafs out there for fairly simple beef operation sheds. This lad was one if them but I knew exactly what I wanted. He is going up a bit in price but Grasstec were out of the ball park.

Ya some.hose designs and sizes are gone crazy. Both of mine build bunglows, slightly fancy but not huge 180-200 sqM.

Two stories gone messy, with scaffolding concrete floors up stairs etc

They may not need them but most are doing them.

Also including the display. I only put in the claim 2 weeks ago for a new one that I got.

If it’s a scales attached to a mobile crush then the crush is a separate application to the scales, maybe that’s where that person got confused.

Exactly what I did myself last year.

They will be three separate items on the one application.

Whenever you do buy them make sure whoever you buy it from invoices each item individually on 3 separate invoices. It’s the simplest way of doing it for making your claim. Also make sure your full name and address matching your name and address on Agfood is shown on each invoice and the invoice for the crush has to have the length of the crush included on it as well.

I had to go back to where I purchased and get invoices amended to reflect this as they used the very common shortened version of my name which wasn’t acceptable as it didn’t match Agfood and the length of the crush wasn’t in the description.

You will also be asked for a copy of your bank statement to show the payment matches the invoices.
