I got rid of my farm staff and now use contractors ,but I have no stock, not so easy with stockWhat if the farm just employs 2 people, full time.
You can keep borrowing, keep expanding and try to stay ahead.
Or
What if you decrease so that it is full time for one person.
In most cases, scaling back reduces costs more than it decreases turnover, so you are more profitable.
The 2 people can then share the 1 full time role or 1 can work elsewhere.
That isn't subsidising the farm, that is better management of your assets.
