Auction report: How much for tillage machinery at Punchestown?
The second Farm Tractor and Machinery Trade Association (FTMTA) auction (of used tractors and machinery) took place on Saturday (February 24) at Punchestown Event Centre near Naas, Co. Kildare.
Close to a couple of hundred lots were up for grabs; these were consigned from FTMTA members (i.e. dealers and distributors dotted about the country) in the run-up to the event.
Some items were bought by punters at the event centre; there was a modest attendance at the venue. Other lots were chased remotely – by online and phone bidders.
