Hi everyone, I've been a steady reader on the site for a while now, first time posting.
I've been seriously considering purchasing a floater for the sole purpose of doing custom work. Nobody else in my area does any custom work, and each year more and more farmers seem to be looking to have fertilizer floated over the winter. I'm really just looking for any advice, criticism, tips, or warnings you might have for me. We have never floated fertilizer on our farm before so I'm not exactly an expert on the whole process.
If I do decide to head down this path I would most likely being buying a floater this fall for, hopefully for in the $150k - $200k range. Just looking around and comparing I would charge between $5 - $7.
Again, I'm really quite new to this technique and have very little experience with these particular machines. So at this point, any and all information is helpful.
Thanks A lot!
