EU want payment to leave...

@Muck Spreader I think when someone answers the question it says a lot about them. You are obviously satisfied with what you have. Some others would have had to buy the next door place.

Same with some people on a grander scale. They want to conquer the country next door and the next and the next........ Other people in a similar position are quite happy to just be King or whatever of their own country.



That is what I do too. Almost all my ag work is off the seat of a tractor. Harvesting and pruning are hand done, as is the kitchen garden so I dstill get plenty of strenuous exercise.

To me there is a lot of satisfaction in doing the job properly (or at least to the best of my own limited ability) getting beyond a certain size often seems to compromise this and were it doesn't you eventually become a desktop farmer rather than a real one.

We could have bought another 40 Hc, decided to buy a cottage and did it up instead.

Wrong move. Definitely the 40ha for me

But your kids have no intention of making their lives in France, mine have. We bought for them really, they can live in it or sell it as a deposit , whatever.
