Forage Rape

[Jinty Mcginty]

Have a couple of fields surplus to requirements I know its normally charged out on a headage per week basis but really wanting to sell on a area basis.It was sown in May and looking well,but what to charge ?
Any suggestions on a fair price

 

[sticky]

A few basic questions first, where are you? how big are the fields? are they fenced? Is there water? & how long is it available for?
Some pics would help as well.

Caithness 14ac field fenced with water and potential grass run back available for 5 months

If it was planted in May, will it not be getting a bit strong by now?

Normally rape would be planted in May to be ready for weaning lambs, not for another 5 months of keep fr9m now.

Normally lambs would have been on it by now but they are still finishing straight off grass
