Lucknow, Ont. (519) 524-7627 46 THE RURAL VOICE Lynn Lowry Lynn Lowry Farm Systems Ltd. Amberley Main lines: J -Star, Houle, Clay, Westeel grain bins, cattle feeding equipment, manure handling equip- ment, feed processing equipment, cattle and hog stabling and ventilation. Business trends: Most of the sales are coming from replacing existing, worn-out equipment, Lowry says. There is very little expansion. He foresees very tight deals and that some dealers won't survive. "Farmers seem to be travelling further for prices, yet ask the local dealer to come fix the machines." The wave of amalgamations hasn't affected his business because 95 per cent of the companies he has dealt with over the last 25 years are main lines and are solid companies. He predicts there will continue to be amalgamations, however. Whether this affects individual farmers or not will depend on whether it's his brand that disappears, and whether replacement parts are available or not. The amalgamations will also affect competitive pricing, he says. How have conditions In the past year affected inventory? Lowry says there has been no effect on inventory yet but feels the effects of last year's crop disaster won't be felt until after spring planting bills come in. Jack Nickel Midwestern Farm Equipment Listowel Main lines: Massey -Ferguson, Kubota, Gehl, White New Idea, Kongskilde, Zetor, Great Plains Business trends: Nickel sees some positive signs in sales, partly because of the 10 per cent tax credit. He says there has been little effect on his company from the amalgamations within the machinery business and expects little effect in the future, although he expects the amalgamations will continue.
