Agricultural Machinery + Buying Sauna Beer
The combine harvesters are out. It's early September. By mid-September the harvesting is done.
These are expensive machines when new. A model 2013 Claas harvester seems to be on the market for €129,900 at Konekesko. Usage hours 2470, so the machine isn't exactly pristine.
That kind of new tractors are not cheap. The average price of a new tractor is about €100,000. The range is from about €30,000 to €300.000.
