    It may be April fools today but it opens up discussion of the possibilities if something was to happen. At least he said it wasn't defunct.

      Same thing here Jazz but I went for 122 foot with parallel balanced openers and the packers made with enviromentally friendly recycled auto tires. Behind the packers is the sprayer boom and a 3000 gallon premix tank for efficient control of weeds
      I had to make the downpyment 2 years ahead just to make sure I would get one.

            You guys have to control sex on your air drills? Where do you farm? Have to drive by sometime to see that!! That’s what they need all the cameras for? Lol.

              The precision ag cult and the I must get bigger cult , have doomed many of these companies. Efficiency is a two edged sword. It only works if there is profit in the enterprise.

                I went for a tour of the plant a couple of years ago and very impressive. Someone in our group asked the tour guide if there was a younger generation to take over and we were told that no none of Gerry’s children were showing interest so who knows? Nothing lasts forever.

                  Just like so many of us...sellout and smile for a while. Good Luck Gerry, hope your equity is bigger than debt.

                    Close in Canada and move to the Black Sea region. Might be easier to run a plant there.

                      Kubota is aiming to be a full line manufacturer as well. Have been buying other companies lately. Might be a good fit, even the colour close enough.
