[QUOTE="benferg, post: 7688103, member: 789"] i have relied on some seasonal labour for the last 10 years. Work starts in September and is done by some time in March. When we had an easy supply of labour that came back from the uk every year. I’d like to think we payed and still do pay decent money. several times I’ve tried to make a couple of positions full time. Climate change has shortened the winter season so it is becoming easier to make it full time. our business model is changing. Nothing ever stays the same. as for the dairy guys. I think they have to adapt too. The problem is that going cold turkey is hard for everyone. most of the farms around here have reasonable accommodation I think that the farm sizes are too big. Smaller units with a more family feel are the way to go. [/QUOTE]
