The University awarded a contract for a used John Deere Forage Harvester & 2 Corn Heads.
This emergency/quick purchase was required due to a situation in which
items available on the spot market or at discounted prices were available for a limited time such that sound business judgment mandated a purchase immediately to take advantage of the availability and price.
The University is purchasing a used 5830 John Deere Forage Harvester and two John Deere heads to be used in their biomass plot research.
