Farm
machinery covered by floodwater may be permanently damaged
if it isn't cleaned and reconditioned right away.
You
might be tempted to do it yourself, but remember that reconditioning
farm machinery is a big job, and that you may need professional
help or tools. Before you start, get an estimate from your
implement dealer. Your time might be better spent at some
other clean-up task.
If you
tackle the job of reconditioning flooded farm implements yourself,
get more details from your local Extension office.
