Massey Ferguson is making finance more readily accessible to Macra na Feirme members. The special scheme is offered through AGCO finance. It can be claimed when a new or ex-demonstration tractor is purchased.

The finance scheme is 1+2 annual payments at 0% interest which would require the customer to pay a third of the amount financed immediately, followed by a further third in 12 months’ time and the remaining third in month 24.

Available for 50% of the tractor’s RRP, the special scheme also allows a pause of 12 months before paying the first payment of a third.

“Access to credit is one of the key issues facing all agribusinesses and we are very pleased to be able to offer this extra support in partnership with AGCO Finance to assist their business ambitions,” says Lindsay Haddon, Massey Ferguson advertising and sales promotion manager UK and Ireland.

“We are already major sponsors of the young farmers’ movement across the five nations and this new scheme is a further demonstration of our commitment to the future of young people in agriculture.”
