Using your Tractor with a Geiger-Counter in your Hand

Just occasionally, we wander off from the serious business of farming and agricultural equipment when something rather unusual catches our eye.

One such example occurred recently when, quite by chance, we saw an article or rather brief note relating to a nuclear-powered tractor developed a long time ago.

This immediately struck us as a mixture of incredible and hilarious. We had mental images of farmers around Goulburn driving their tractors in lead-lined anti-radiation suits. We couldn’t help smiling also at the thought of our customers bringing equipment into us and our first action being to run over them with a Geiger counter!

OK, this is largely a bit of fun but incredible as it sounds, there were plans in the 1950s and 1960s to use nuclear-powered tractors.  One such photo of a prototype is included here.

The idea, of course, is that such tractors run forever and on an unlimited range basis, given they virtually never need fuelling.  Of course, the practicality of this meant it never happened and the potential health issues, even in a full shielding scenario, are too horrific to contemplate.

Contrary to other supply businesses, a landscape supply business is extremely profitable. The rice milling business is one of the most lucrative and oldest businesses in the nation. The company supplies a wide variety of corporate collectibles for employees or loyal clients. Businesses are often inclined to provide consultation and advice for any questions you might have regarding buying or renting industrial equipment. Irrespective of someone's financial status, starting an organization or rather business isn't a walk in the park. Thus, should you not have a large agricultural company and desire a tractor that will allow you to handle your daily farming requirements, it is sensible to look for a little vehicle, which will feature lots of helpful functions. Any business that manages lifting, lowering and transferring heavy loads from one area to another relies a good deal on cranes.

Agricultural lands vary in features and therefore it is important to select the right sort of land.

The Environment and Common Sense

Most farmers in Australia regard themselves as custodians and protectors of the countryside.

Yes, mistakes have been made in the past and nobody is suggesting that the farming community is perfect. However, given most farmers earn their living from the land they are not likely to treat it with extreme disrespect.

Over many years now though, both state and national governments have passed increasing numbers of environmental protection laws that appear to suggest that confidence in the farming community is less than total.  Some of these laws appear to make little or no sense and in some cases, even contradict each other.

At this stage, we’d like to shift the focus over to France.  Like Australia, many European countries over the last 20 years have passed increasingly aggressive environmental protection laws and some are arguing that these have gone too far.

We read of a situation recently where numbers of French villages are becoming completely overrun with weeds in their very centres because laws now state:

1. herbicides cannot be used under any circumstances, where said weeds are near any form of water course or drain system;

2. even if pulled manually, bonfires/incinerators can no longer be used to dispose of garden or agricultural waste;
