[QUOTE="SorenIlsoe, post: 1644044, member: 1236"] Buttomline and not yield has to be the key factor. Almost everybody here in DK talks yield, while they hardly don't know their costs per hectare! A students project this year compared my economy numbers in a benchmark to other farmers. It showed I had 2000 Dkr (200£) more earning per hectare than other farmers in the same group. This means that I could actually have 2 t less yield/ha and have the same result. In average I have the same yield level as others have, and some times actually higher. This year was the second highest average WW yield here ever (9,3 t/ha but much lower than UK yields because of the danish N regulations!). The soil becomes better and better and there is more life in it. No insecticides applied for several growing seasons which I explain with many more ground beetles and spiders[ATTACH]212432[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]212434[/ATTACH] . Won't even mention worms. Machinery costs a lot of money, and farmers like new toys! Even before you turn the key, there is costs is running...... When this is said, what really means a lot for the economy is the sale strategy. Grain prices has been changing 30% this year! To sell wrong can cost more than seed, fertilizer and chemicals costs all together! [/QUOTE]
