[QUOTE="snarling bee, post: 6873839, member: 681"] That's not what we have found. Income is bang on what BQP said, if not a little more. Costs are about what they said. Our capital costs are a bit higher, but that is our choice of straw shed and loader, rather than the sheds themselves. The big ones for me are cost of capital and cost of labour. If you have to borrow all the money and employ the labour then I can't see much in it. If you have family labour that you need to keep busy and /or capital to invest then it works. You really also need a supply of straw and land to spread the muck, or a good straw for muck deal. The job is about as risk free as you can get. I wouldn't want the same amount invested in the stock market at the moment. We are happy to show people around or discuss further if that is helpful. [/QUOTE]
