fresh off the production line more than a decade ago.
"It's got us worried for sure," said Eric Hopkins, the senior vice president of Hundley Farms, which boasts 20,000 acres of mostly vegetables in central Florida."They're already low on inventory and parts right now. A strike is only going to exacerbate things, make it worse.
That's one issue highlighted by David Misener, who travels the country from May to November as a custom farmer. He brings farm equipment and harvests other people's crops for them. His timelines are tight, but he's had to wait long periods for repairs and parts multiple times this season — an unusual occurrence.
The price index for used tractors at Richie Bros. is up by 19 percent since last year, Ackley said. The company's website, where it hosts online auctions, has attracted more than 161 million visitors and 1.3 million bidders in 2021 — that’s up by 15 percent and 19 percent respectively from the same time a year ago.
"Some of the electronic parts have been really hard lately to get for the guidance systems on some of these tractors," Riley said."It's really hard to do anything with how highly computer-driven they are anymore, so that's a problem."
Ah fuck it just mail them another check.
All the more reason to start listening to the workers and coming to an agreement.
Oh well pressure JD and other manufacturers then.
Can you imagine the crap media would be dishing out on trump with all this crap biden has done to our economy or 13 marines getting killed?
I got mushrooms growing in my yard but I need a 200000 dollar tractor to harvest them. Get on your knees and harvest by hand
Social Security recipients get a 6% increase in Jan. Yet Deere balks at offering more than 6%. Gosh.
'Oh, I get that you want more [INSERT DEMANDS FROM LABOR I AM EXPLOITING], but it's just not the right time because [INSERT BS EXCUSE TO DENY DEMANDS]. Maybe next year!' ***takes off robe and dives naked in to a swimming pool full of federal farm subsidy cash***
Screw it. Let’s all starve because we need to spend trillions on more BS and wasteful spending. Anyone who votes for this deserves to beg for scraps.
They don’t sympathize though…born and raised around the ag community in CA. It’s back breaking working…often in insane heat…which is why farmers lobby to get immigrants to come do the work for a lot less. Ask Devin Nunes & McCarthy…they know where the bodies are buried.
Go take a look at how much the farming industry got in PPP loans…
They drug children in the sextrade, look up a child's reaction to LSD. This is what Celebrities and other elite give them right before the rape, heroin too. I'm going to go rescue the children out of the sextrade. Help us. I know where they have them hidden in plain sight.
What's in the BBB bill?
Those farmers should be real mad at the people running those plants than. Don’t get mad at the worker. Get mad at the men forcing the worker to strike.
Yeah, farmers being paid or forced, if they don’t comply, to burn their crop will be related to food shortages, as well,….. but that story won’t make it to mainstream news.
