Tips for Buying Used Farm Equipment

Investing in farm equipment can have a significant financial impact on growers, whether it's a complete tractor or the accompanying implements, tires, and gadgets. It's no wonder that many farmers opt for high-quality, pre-owned agricultural equipment instead of solely relying on the newest, shiniest machinery. While purchasing used ag equipment can lead to substantial savings, it requires additional research and caution to ensure you bring home the perfect fit for your needs. Uvalco Powersports & Equipment has put together some tips below. If you need assistance, visit our location in Bandera, TX. We also serve those in San Antonio and Uvalde, TX.

Work with a Reputable Seller

First off, avoid doing deals with dirty dealers. That means questioning online listings without photos and information, walking away from individual sellers with questionable equipment, or even ignoring local dealers with less than flattering reputations and online reviews. While all these sources might advertise the very best deals, what you’re buying isn’t always what you get.

Auctions are also a great place to secure some high-quality equipment for less money, but just as some of the savings are from cutting out a middleman, you won’t have anyone there to support your purchase in the years to come. You’ll also have to take a chance with how good your price will be as you’ll be competing against buyers who may have more money to throw around.

Research Your Equipment

All used and new equipment should be inspected and tested before any purchase is made. If you aren’t an experienced operator, consider bringing someone who is to assist with this examination and serve as an advisor. That way you have some backup for dealing with salespeople and to help you make informed choices.

A sign of quality used ag equipment is a complete operation record that includes maintenance and service schedules. Keep your own records of any transaction and, once you make your purchase, of the tractor’s condition. If something should go wrong, it’ll be important to have solid records to back up your claims.

Buying used agricultural equipment can be an affordable way to increase the productivity of your farm. But, before you jump in, it’s important to do your research and make sure that the machinery is in good condition and a good fit for what you need.
