It’s funny cos it’s true! One thing we never have too much trouble with, we either have a dodgy accountant or never make money
It’s much better than the alternative!Had mine today and one months milk cheque is going to HMRC
Were Ireland not putting more into intervention this spring?Does anybody know how much skimmed ended up in intervention? Just read an article that stated 200000 tonnes has now been sold out of intervention. It would nice to know how much is left. It would be great if it was gone before next seasons over production hits.
What forages do you have in the mix SC ? You seem to be quite heavy on the bought in conc for the litres.What drastic changes have you made? Cows getting 8 kilos blend, 5 kilos draff whole crop silage and averaging 5 kilos of cake in the parlour. Time of year I don’t like to be short on feeding to get a better seasonality. Probably should cut the blend but we are marginally getting the production bonus (which is produce 1 litre more than the same month last year) so if tank drops that’s .5 pence down and poorer seasonality which pays throughout the whole of next year so I feel feeding them and getting litres is worthwhile. Feed bill would put a weaker man in a mental home. Margin over feed roughly 180£ per cow on 28.6 pence. It’s the low cost that excites me about these cows doing 10 litres and producing straight butter out thier Tits, if we had a few more cows one man less feeding 2 kilos of cake getting paid 50 pence I see good money there! What is the highest cost in a low cost system apart from land ?
A figure of 300000 tons seems to be familiar but I may be way off targetDoes anybody know how much skimmed ended up in intervention?

Every month ? [emoji23]we Are tax efficient @sidjon think we are paying 6% of one months milk cheque !! Never like giving money to the tax man haha
What’s the alternative? A guy over castle Douglas was paying 100k in tax, changed accountants and went on to pay 10k tax . U boys need to change accountantsIt’s much better than the alternative!
I would not have thought so given market returns at the time but you may be right ?Were Ireland not putting more into intervention this spring?
Jan's when your dry?Had mine today and one months milk cheque is going to HMRC
Seem to remember something but can't find it now and looks like @pappuller Is about right with tonnage 280 in September of SMPI would not have thought so given market returns at the time but you may be right ?
I would love it to be , but it's not the peak month this year thankfullyJan's when your dry?
Agreed given our profits this yr we are paying an obscenely low amount of tax this yr. the tax system is crazy and means my tax rate is far lower than my staff. Which in any reasonable society is totally wrong. All our tax system is achieving is concentrating the wealth and fewer and fewer hands.What’s the alternative?

You have an extremely commendable moral compass @lazy farmerAgreed given our profits this yr we are paying an obscenely low amount of tax this yr. the tax system is crazy and means my tax rate is far lower than my staff. Which in any reasonable society is totally wrong. All our tax system is achieving is concentrating the wealth and fewer and fewer hands.
