We have around 30 acres, not all for cutting as steep in places, but most of it could be cut this year as we have had nothing on grazing. Currently we have about 15 acres cut by a farmer that pays us £5ish for big rounds and £1ish for small bales. So around £500 for last year and going forward...

Ok. Story so far. Maps on land registry only show my field boundaries not the ROW that have been conveyed as they are public and known as 'legal interest' but I do own them and they are long and wide in parts. But then I look at the ramblers association...The surface of the path is for most...

Hi Am I right in thinking there is a registration deadline looking for footpaths? We register them or risk someone making one up as they please through the land? Have many of you done this or not bothered? I cannot for the life of me find the original website that I cam across on it - any...

Hi We have a few footpaths kicking around on our farm, but we also have a bridleway within our farm. We've recently had a local neighborhood party complain about offroad bikes/quads being on the bridleways illegally. We haven't seen them, but obviously the implication is that they may injure...

New to farming - sort of. Just wondering how many of you out there have sought to do any type of qualifications as a farmer. Are you a young farmer or a mature farmer. Do you think it's necessary? What qualification would you recommend and why? I'm a mature farmer coming into it and I just...

Hi, I know this can vary region to region massively, but i'd like an idea of per acre if we were to let around 20 acres in Calderdale, West Yorkshire for grazing. I've found the internet vague with prices as it never says whether it's per year or month. It's good land, wanted and has water...
