BTOs and i dont pretend to be one

[hobbyfrmr]

I like BTO's. They are competitive, efficent and highly productive. They increase the price of land and the cost of rent. Land that has not been planted to canola for years is going to fetch a big premium in the future. They own elevators, and houses for their employees in small towns. They contribute to the tax base, and employ many local labourers. They buy vehicles and/or recreation items for the employees who need them. Their employee's children attend local schools. The employees get to work with the most modern comfortable farm equipment and the latest technology.
Somebody has to do it!

Farm size has more to do with how it's managed .
Some guys can manage 20,000 ac or more and do it effectively.
In the same area there are guys who can not manage 2,000ac .
Also many farms in between that are very successful and some that struggle .
Those that run big well managed operations are certainally impressive to watch

BTW , Mallee are you familiar with these ? They are made in Aus

not common in our area at the top end of air carts in price most seeders here are dbs,hb, morris ,seedhawk flexicoil, jd and most have corresponding carts

Ok thanks , was just curious.
We did our own set up about 5 years ago and are just looking for ideas on how to up grade our one air seeding tank to 500 bus plus the liquid tank. Just to give us the capacity to seed up to 3 bus ac and do 160 ac per fill.
Thinking of building our own now.
