Planned Machinery Care Cuts Farm Costs
Iowa State University engineer Steve Marley notes that a planned machinery management program saves money. Follow manuals for care and maintenance, inspect for repairs, replace worn parts in winter, consider a farm welder, and use or offer custom work. Evaluate operations by whether they pay and align machine capacities to the system. The harvest rate hinges on the slowest unit.
