I,m an agricultural engineer and have been since i left school i now work for a Case IH and JCB dealer in sussex
I would say working in Ag there are less rules and regs regarding the machinery than construction but it is coming in for the ag stuff
The construction industry tends to pay better than the Ag side as the agricultural industry has been traditionally lower paid than other mechanical industrys, but that is changing as the Ag dealers were losing engineers hand over fist to better paid jobs in plant hire and construction etc.
The company i work for have been on a recruiting drive trying to find engineers with expierience and have had to up their wage offers in line with other industrys to find them.
If you want to do Ag work you gotta like long hours and cow sh*t as there,s plenty of both :lol:

bob86:
And pig sh*t if your unlucky like me :lol:
I dont do long hours i'd love the extra money but the company i work for only do 8-5.30 mon to fri and 8-1 sat

unknownmanxman:
Oh theres plenty of sh*te in plant mechanicing too...

Done it for a few years now.. Expect the hours to be long and you have to be flexible, because down time is everything, you are usually expected to stay until the job is done..[/img]

Sharpshooter:
Im an Hgv Fitter by trade. But have been working as a Plant engineer for a few years now, in a Nuclear Power station.

Give me the HGV's any day of the week.

Shame about the money. :(
