Currently own and farm 800acres of arable land. My next door neighbour has approached me about farming his 200acre of arable land. He is going to keep the SFP and wants it to look like he is still actively farming. He is happy to receive £130/acre. But wants as little paper work to do as possible.
My though was to invoice him £400/acre for seed, fert, spray, and contracting work.
And him to invoice me £530 acre equivalent grain. =£130acre to land owner.
Is this possible and would this count as him actively farming.
