[QUOTE="kiwi pom, post: 7616178, member: 946"] It doesn't really matter, every countries different and has it's own advantages and disadvantages. NZ biggest disadvantage is, its so far from market, if you want to farm here you pretty much have to accept you're depending on another country to buy your goods. One big scare like BSE and everyone stops buying and its business finished. I'd say the biggest advantage the UK has is there'll always be 60 million people to feed, so you have a market and because of subs and grants, environmental schemes and house/land prices its possible to make a reasonable living while only owning/renting a small number of acres, compared to a lot of countries.
