2008 Farm Machinery Rental and Custom Rate Guide

 

This Rental and Custom Rate Guide has been prepared by Manitoba Agriculture, Food and Rural Initiatives to provide information on farm machinery costs, and rental and custom rates for users and owners of farm equipment. The costs and rates are based on average conditions existing in Manitoba in early 2008. The components of each of the rates are shown, so that they can be easily altered in case individual situations differ from those assumed.
