I’ve heard that a lot over the years but the fact remains that you cannot have a profit larger than your turnover. Up until now subs for the majority have been a large percentage of income and often the majority of the total profit, without being a real part of the turnover of the actual business. So for many farms who have turned a reasonable profit from a low turnover, say £200,000 a year are in for some shock soon. I make a modest living without sub but turnover an awful lot of money to do it (cattle)
First sensible comment I’ve seen for a while
