A “compelling showcase of agricultural machinery of the highest order” will go under the hammer on 18 September when Hobbs Parker Auctioneers LLP conducts the Nonington Farms Dispersal Sale. Hobbs Parker managing director John Rossiter explained: “Offering over 150 lots of high output equipment which has been maintained to the highest standard, the auction promises a modern selection of implements, tractors and vehicles, with the star of the show being a Claas Lexion 8700 combine with 40ft vario header.

“All lots have potential for new life in the hands of the successful bidders on the day.”

Hobbs Parker’s farm dispersal auctions are renowned for drawing large crowds and delivering competitive sale prices, and John was confident that the Nonington Farms auction would continue the theme.

“Hobbs Parker’s recent dispersal sales conducted throughout 2024 and 2025 were some of the highest turnover sales seen in the South East for many years,” he said.

“For potential buyers, be they local farmers, contractors or just those with a keen eye for a bargain, this auction offers a prime opportunity to obtain genuine lots that only ever surface at a dispersal sale.

“The chance to acquire well-maintained, modern and high output equipment at transparent auction pricing remains a powerful draw to many. Expect the hum of engines, the sharp ring of the auctioneer’s hammer and a vivid display of agricultural muscle against the backdrop of tilled land in east Kent.

“For those following the evolving landscape of farming in the South East, the Nonington Farms Dispersal Sale promises to be both pivotal and memorable.”

The full catalogue is available on both the Hobbs Parker website and the online bidding platform MartEye, with photographs of all lots being uploaded to both. For a print version of the catalogue, contact Hobbs Parker’s Ashford office on 01233 502222.
