Ritchie Agricultural Ritchie Agricultural specialise in supplying specialist farming machinery and equipment to the farmin

Ritchie was established over 140 years ago as a blacksmithing service to the local community of Gateside in the County of Angus, Scotland. As farming advanced during the late 19th and early 20th Century, traditional blacksmithing skills were replaced with the manufacturing of a small range of innovative implements designed to improve efficiency and reduce labour inputs as horsepower gave way to steam and tractor power. This business expansion necessitated relocating from the country into the town of Forfar where Ritchie continued to develop and manufacture products for both the livestock and arable industries. All prices mentioned on this page will not include VAT or Delivery if applicable.

👥5 people → 4 people. Could it be done with 3?👥

For Bruce, adding the Ritchie 3-Way Cattle Drafting Gate to his Mobile Cattle Crate and Stock Cube setup meant one less person was needed during sorting.

Instead of someone manually operating the drafting gates, cattle can be directed after weighing, helping reduce manual intervention while keeping the handling process moving efficiently.

Bruce reduced his team from five to four and believes the setup could potentially be managed with just three people when needed.

Could your cattle handling setup work harder for you?
