Scott and Sarah Haywood, from Haywood Farms, commented: “We’re pleased to instruct Cheffins to facilitate our machinery sale.

“With their wealth of knowledge and their experience in the industry we feel they will be able to sell our machinery to its full potential, and we have the upmost faith in them to give us the best start to our farming career in New Zealand.”

Charles Wadsley, Associate at Cheffins, added: “The catalogue for the Haywood Farms sale sees a diverse selection of well-maintained machinery and implements.

“With a shortage of quality second-hand agricultural machinery on the market, coupled with long lead times for new kit, we expect this sale to be of great interest for both farmers and dealers.

“Haywood Farms is a well-respected business, and we are pleased to have the opportunity to help them dispose of their machinery ahead of their move to New Zealand.”

The sale will take place on Tuesday 13 September at the Haywood Farms Ltd premises at New Farm, Cow Lane, Rampton, Cambridgeshire.
