Ordered the years lubricant needs from my Shell rep yesterday. Oils, no problem with supply. Grease cartages, none available. At their meeting Thursday company rep told them the company that was making the cartages switch to PPE so they don't have any. Asked what their plan was and was told they are working on it. I asked about bulk but got no answer from him. Anyone else run into this with other companies?

Ear tags, estimated delivery 4-6 months. Went plan B this year and ordered next years supply.
Machinery wise things seem to be catching up, maybe, or maybe I'm just lucky. Traded for a vertical beater manure spreader Monday, showed up at dealer Wednesday. Bought a aluminum livestock trailer yesterday, in stock, pick up anytime.

I like 1 because its great for greasing disc drill bearings especially when its plus 30c |

I was debating on getting an end dump trailer for the farm. Just curious what build times are like in the welding industry. I will be contacting loadline in winkler shortly but was wondering if its too late for harvest?
If any buddy knows of a used triple or tandem grain end dump let me know!
