save paying rent and be there for the next generation,
If you've applied fertilizer by your year end in June you can put it in at anything from cost to 60% of cost, thereby reducing headline profit in presenting to the banksters.

If not, you can put it in at anything from cost to current value, thereby increasing your headline profit and tax payable for one year (and get it back next year).

At current IRs, it's cheap enough to pay extra tax one year early to fatten up the profits - wasn't quite so cheap to do this, but so often necessary, in the 70s, with tax at 40% and IRs at 18%!

Either way, good luck with the project.

Haulier said plenty going on boats from immingham. So much for domestic supply.
They’re shipping tonnes around the UK ports too. At huuuuge cost. But likely cheaper than trucking it all from Billingham.
Dare say there’re some exports too. Why not? No point producing it and looking at it at these prices. Imagine the working capital that’s tied up!
