Who to talk to
On the farm this month

September — Tupping, Fluke and Getting Ready to House

What we are being asked for at the counter right now. Updated at the start of every month.

Six Weeks to Tupping

Condition and trace element status now decide the scanning percentage. Cobalt, iodine and selenium are the usual gaps on Scottish ground — copper is the one to be careful with.

Pre-tupping minerals

Fluke Risk Is Building

After a wet summer this is the one that turns a good year into a poor one. Which product depends on the stage of fluke, not the brand — worth asking before you buy.

Fluke drenches

Before the Cattle Come In

Housing is when fluke, lice and clostridial cover get sorted, and when a shed problem you have lived with all summer becomes a daily one.

Cattle housing

Ventilation, Before You Need It

Pneumonia in housed cattle is usually an air problem before it is a bug problem. We survey sheds and fit ventilation and weather protection.

Phone Ahead and We Will Put It By

Ring your store and we will set it aside for you to collect. Worth doing if you are travelling a distance or you need it on a particular day — it saves arriving to find the last one went out an hour ago. Or order the full range at mccaskie.store and we will send it out.

AgriScot 2026

A Scottish First, on Our Stand

The Hanskamp FeedStation Mobile — individual concentrate feeding out at grass — makes its Scottish debut with McCaskie on Wednesday 18 November at the Royal Highland Centre, Ingliston.

What almost nobody else does

We Do Not Just Sell the Machine. We Fit It and We Fix It.

Most agricultural merchants stop at the invoice. McCaskie Engineering designs, installs, commissions and services farm systems from our base at Springkerse in Stirling.

Robotic Milking

Fullwood Merlin². Exclusive Scottish dealer, and the only make of robot we service — because we would rather know one properly.

Milking equipment

Cooling & Storage

Liscarroll tanks and silos, sized to the herd, with heat recovery.

Cooling

Slurry Robots

JOZ Barn-E and JOZ-tech. A clean floor is a lameness decision, not a tidiness one.

Slurry

Ventilation & Weather

Hydor fans and Galebreaker screens. The cheapest pneumonia treatment is air.

The People, Not the Website

Every merchant claims expert advice. Ours have qualifications you can check and names you can ask for.

SQPs on Every Counter

Every one of our field representatives is a qualified SQP, and so are most of the staff behind the counters. Whoever you get is qualified to advise on and supply animal medicines — you are not waiting for the one person who knows.
