[QUOTE="maen, post: 7674377, member: 23494"] You are correct about America. Canada is different. Often when poultry houses are depreciated packers will drop the price because they can and paying more for a new build because the debt keeps the production flowing. In the worst case governments incentivise expansion in certain areas (Wales) by offering grants which moves production and disadvantages existing producers. Where as commercial buildings will pay a return without the owner grafting away with a power hose at regular intervals. That responsibility should stay with the packer as should all the other costs of operation. Time for change B&b pigs would work well if all costs were really covered. Mortality disposal, wash down, weighing, loading out of hours etc. It’s a long list. Farmers are seriously under valuing their time. It’s basically pay for a bit of Labour, buildings and other services for free. You do not buy a Ferrari at the same price as a Ford. [/QUOTE]
