[QUOTE="Clive, post: 5434076, member: 6"] we sold quota when we gave up milking yes (not "serious money") though we were only a small heard and were having to lease a lot of quota (why we sold up really), the values of the cow and kit at the time was more significant and initialy funded my ambition to go contracting and grow the arable side of the business from a small 300ac part owned part tennanted unit to what it is today................and I really never did like cows much either ! I've received loads of subsidy over the years, that's simply the environment my farming career to date has taken place wthin, I make no apology or excuse for that. Im pretty sure if those subs had not existed through that time I would have paid a lot less rent, lower machinery prices and received more for my produce over the same time instead If Governments want to distort markets there is nothing I can do about it but pay the game really is there [/QUOTE]
