Wow. What a sale.
Farm retirement sale today for 85 year old Pecatonica, IL farmer Van Merchant. This sale has had folks talking for a while now. Van formerly farmed a lot of ground, but had cut down to just his 85 acre home farm. Most of the super low hour, like new equipment on today’s auction was just used on this 85 acre farm. Here are sale price highlights from today’s sale by Mecum Auction, along with my notes on the prices:
