"By co-operating with other
farms we will increase the degree of use of machines and save energy" - Kaurala farm quality manual |
|
At modern farms the machinery should be measured in a way, that areas
that have grown are possible to cultivate at same time as before. Sizes of machines have grown because of this and
at the same time the prices have increased as well. It is often more cost-effective to get stock in co-operation
with other farms or to contract jobs. These cases it is possible to keep the stock quite new all the time and the
costs quite low.
Most of the machinery in Kaurala farm is shared with two or more farms.
