[QUOTE="Beefsmith, post: 8012019, member: 133822"] I think there’s going to be some heated discussions within contract farming agreements due to the fert and fuel because most of them are set up to effectively pay a set rent over the duration of the agreement. If the contractor suddenly says look our fuel bill has doubled to do the work and fertiliser is up by 200% and the subsidy is being reduced so we need to wind in the ‘rent’ in. I’ve a friend is Scotland that’s already fallen out with his contractor over his 1500ac. So the agreement has fallen apart and he’s going to put the lot into CS and Woodland as he’s fed up and his children aren’t interested. The contractors going mad because he refused to take the hit on the cost rises. My friend said a signed deal is a signed deal. [/QUOTE]
