About
About Farm Equipment Compare
An independent price and spec comparison site for cattle handling equipment, pasture supplies, compact tractors and the implements that fit them.
Who Runs Farm Equipment Compare
Farm Equipment Compare is run by Duncan McAdams from Farragut, Tennessee. It is an independent site. It is not a dealer, a manufacturer or a store, nothing is sold here, and no brand pays to be listed or ranked.
The site exists because comparing farm equipment online is slow. The same squeeze chute or fence charger is listed at different prices by different stores, specs are spread across manufacturer PDFs, and it is hard to tell whether an implement suits a given tractor. Each page here puts the prices, the specs that matter and the trade offs in one place, with links to the stores that carry the item.
What the Site Covers
The livestock side compares 302 products across 13 categories, each with its own hub page, product pages, head to head comparisons and plain language explainers for the specs:
- Squeeze Chutes
- Cattle Headgates
- Cattle Scales
- Electric Fence Chargers
- Hay Feeders
- Livestock Waterers
- Portable Corrals and Chutes
- Stock Tanks and De-Icers
- Portable Electric Fence Supplies
- Livestock Gates and Corral Panels
- Bale Spears
- Calving Supplies
- Livestock Clippers
The tractor section covers 38 compact and sub-compact tractors from nine brands and 81 three point implements across ten implement types. It includes a tractor and implement matcher that checks horsepower, hitch category, PTO and lift capacity, a tractor size guide and a filter part number finder.
How Prices, Specs and Ratings Are Checked
Prices come from the manufacturer or the retailer’s own listing. Every price page shows the month it was last checked, and prices are rechecked roughly every quarter. Prices change between checks, so the store’s page always has the final word.
Specs come from manufacturer spec sheets and owner’s manuals. When a manufacturer does not publish a figure, the page says unknown rather than guessing or copying a number from a forum or a reseller.
Where customer ratings are shown, they are the retailer’s own ratings, labelled with the store’s name and the number of reviews, and linked to the source. Farm Equipment Compare does not write or edit reviews.
Photos are either the site’s own drawings or openly licensed images credited on the page where they appear.
How the Site Makes Money
Some links to stores are affiliate links. If you buy through one, the store may pay Farm Equipment Compare a small commission. You pay the same price either way. The site also may show ads from Google AdSense.
Commissions do not decide what gets listed or how products compare. When several stores carry the same item at a similar price, the main button may point to a store that pays a commission, and the other stores and the lowest price found are still shown on the page. Full details are in the affiliate disclosure and the privacy policy.
Corrections and Contact
If you see a price that has changed, a spec that is wrong, or a model or implement that should be added, send it through the contact page. Corrections are checked against the listing or spec sheet and the page is updated with a new check date.
