On Wednesday 17 April, Michael Doyle Auctions held an online machinery auction.
The auction consisted of over 120 entries, the majority of which were from local farmers. A 70% clearance rate was achieved on the evening.
“The secondhand machinery market is sticky at the moment. Clean, well-minded equipment will always be sold, some higher-value items and implements with a lot of work done are finding it difficult to achieve the prices they would have 12 to 18 months ago,” explained the auctioneer.
Some standout lots included a 2002 New Holland TM150 with 9,380 hours selling for €21,000 (no VAT), which was closely followed by a 2003 New Holland TM175 selling for €20,000.
