Tractors from McCormick including the X4, X6, X6L and X7 ranges will be on view along with a wide range of Krone equipment including the Big-X-600 forage harvester and the BigPack 1290 baler that is proving popular with farmers and contractors in the area.

There will also be a range of equipment from Lynx Engineering, HM Trailers, ALO Quickie loaders, Major Farm Equipment, RABE cultivation equipment, Sulky fertiliser spreaders, Ryetec farm and forestry equipment, Landquip Sprayers, and Storth slurry equipment.

"We are looking forward to welcoming farmers to our open day in conjunction with Wynnstay Stores to see our range of equipment," said Chris Willner who established Severn Farm Machinery at Rea Valley Business Park, Pontesbury just this spring.

A real family business, Chris and his wife Jane are directors of the firm while son Matthew takes charge of the service side of things as workshop manager and younger son Michael is parts manager.

Quality, reliability and service are the three watchwords for the new dealership and Chris has signed up machinery manufacturers with innovative ideas and modern equipment that will give farmers the tools to get work done efficiently.

Representatives from the manufacturers will be attending the open day so farmers can ask all the questions they need to make an informed decision on the equipment most likely to suit their farming system.

As well as the 10 per cent discount on showroom purchases made on the day there will be a free prize draw and refreshments with burgers and baps available during the day and a hog roast from 5pm until 9pm.

"Joining forces for the open day with Wynnstay Stores will give customers old and new the chance to see that between us we can offer a one stop shop for nearly all their needs at one location," Chris added.

Drop in at Rea Valley Business Park , Pontesbury (SY5 0UB ) on Wednesday, December 10 from noon till nine or for more information telephone 01743 790554 or email chris@severnfarmmachinery.co.uk
