3 weeks ago I was filming a farmer interview on his farm in Hudson, WI. After the interview we walked over to look at his corn.
“There are no ears”, he said. “Burned up.”
Not just in Hudson, WI.
Not surprisingly I am seeing the buyer demand rising and auction sale prices escalating on good condition used forage choppers. Case in point, yesterday (September 7, 2022) on our friends at www.bigiron.com weekly online sale.
1977 JD 5460 forage chopper from Pierce, Neb., sold: $34,751
Pete’s Note: “$34,751 is the Highest auction price on a JD 5460 chopper in 7 years and the 2nd Highest auction sale price the past 22 years”
HIGHEST AUCTION PRICES ON JD 5460 FORAGE CHOPPERS
- 7 of the 10 Highest auction sale prices on JD 5460 choppers the past 22 years been sold by www.bigiron.com
Here’s a visual look at RISING Demand seen recently on used self-propelled Forage Choppers for sale in our www.MachineryPete.com web site. The Blue line = Supply. The Orange line = Demand (folks shopping). This chart looks back over the past 2 years to Sept. '20
