Power Farmer scheme targets steel shortages in UK farming gear
London based Power Farmer Publications leads a steel exchange plan to ease bottlenecks in making power operated farm machinery. A weekly bulletin lists materials dealers will trade, with over 1100 tons of unsorted steel offered in a recent week. The scheme aims only to relieve production bottlenecks, not divert resources. TE Kitamura of New South Wales notes the system is barter style and could suit other manufacturers if similar conditions exist.
