You could keep 1,000 ewes on a ring fenced 200 ac with sheds. Wean 1.75 and sell 1.5.I expect this job here will see me out but for the next generation I hope they do something better. Not sure I’d wish it on them. And if they are handy and willing they will always find something useful to do that’s for sure.
Meantimes we will crack on and have a laugh where we can.
1500 sale lambs sold at weaning for average £70 is £105,000.
Inputs would be fencing, dog (and associated costs), labour, vet med, dead stock disposal. Maybe a quad, or a buggy if you're feeling posh.
