I guess it all comes down to , what you can cash flow , and how much labour do you have. If the tractor is needing to be replaced anyway I wouldn't lump it in with the barn/herd expansion thoughts. Even if you don't expand , the tractor will still be worn out. One of my friends is the local Lilly dealer , and last year put two rebuilt VMS units into their own barn . Seems to be getting a long fine with them , but of course they fix the units too. Expanding has been on my mind too for the last few years, and we just got one step closer this past week by finishing up the addition to our milk pipe line. We now have 105 cow milking stalls under the milk line, but it will take a while to put a milking cow into each stall.You say that you are worried about the current milk price, it isn't the current price that bothers me , it is what the future price will look like .Our price is strong right now at .96 per litre CND. , with my cost of production at .50 per litre. If you chopped .25 per litre off that price , things would not feel so rosey . Bruce

I credit my parents for instilling a lot of good values, a respect for learning, a knowledge of various skills and a little knowledge of farming in me, amo
