[QUOTE="Pan mixer, post: 7869833, member: 5334"] I had the theory that multiple things might help, however the arable had poor yields and the pigs will eat it all, there is little hay to sell as it was rubbish. The subsidy is very handy but contract charges and chemical bills are taking most of that. Cattle sales were good and so were sheep but they are small in comparison to the costs of raising pigs. I have had a similar sized herd of pigs for almost 40 years and I have never lost as much as I have this year. Essex used to have a lot of pigs but as far as me and several friends can work out, there are 4 independant commercial herds left in the county [/QUOTE]
