@FarmerTonyWhite I had a similar issue with my D-Max while under warranty. Insurance wouldn’t cover as it was a know manufacturers fault, Isuzu wouldn’t cover as 2 inch lift put on when I bought it. Dm me if you want to know more

@timmort_ Think you’re right. I wonder if capital growth of livestock farms might become stagnant for a bit? Due to profitability, especially over ROAM. As you pointed out in your other reply. Why would you borrow money at 5-7%, to make 1-2%? 🤷🏻‍♂️

Anybody got any good investing/managing economics podcasts they listen to? I’ve been listening to Dave Ramsay, I know he’s American but like the talkback aspect and real life scenarios that get discussed etc. Something similar but Aussie would be great!

@AgriFocused Negatives outweigh the positives imo. Less competition in rural merchandise etc. Bigger companies seem to have more admin costs etc that outweigh any benefit in purchasing power etc. Will be interesting to see if ACCC allow

Just looking for advice: Looking at dry hiring my loader tractor out over the next few months. 140 HP Case. Would it be on a HP basis per hour? Any one had any experience in doing so? Thanks

@coyle_tim @KerinPollMerino @baileyagco Tim what do you think the possible reasons those good livestock operators have gone to cropping? More profit? Less workload? Less market volatility?

@CKMonty My great uncle was a navigator in a Lancaster that was shot down over France in WWII. Was rescued and hid by the French Resistance. Amazing story!

@MartyConroy_9 Looks good Marty. What’s in the mix?

[Jock Mort @jsmort2]

Thanks everyone. Some good points and things to think about

Looking for some advice on share farming: putting in an application for a lease block, 1/3 can be farmed. How does share farming typically work? Would like to sow some crops for grazing, was thinking of doing a deal with a nearby cropper. 1/2

@GusWhyte Thanks Gus. Good food for thought!
