I think this is how it works already with harvesters, where the demand is only really during a month of the year.

I don't know the details how it works, but I am assuming there is a way they can work it out where everyone is reasonably happy. Because it is in the interest of the rental service to be predictable.

And there is a huge benefit for the farmer to not have to own and store something that is probably the most expensive machine they have. And also not have to worry about it breaking down at the most critical moment.

But that comes at a steep hourly price i assume.

Market economy is not always a bad thing.
