[QUOTE="mountfarm, post: 7777593, member: 90390"] A good friend has 450ac of which 75ac is grass with sheep on it all year round and the rest is combinable crops of which 300ac is milling wheat and 75ac of spring crops. He has one tractor, 36m trailed sprayer which does liquid fert as well, a 3m drill, a 3m cultivator and 10m rolls. He uses a contractor for combining but he carts. He also has 150,000sqft of industrial let out, a biomass boiler heating it all. He does it all on his own with the biomass taking up majority of his time. Business turnover is around £800,000 and he works on a 20% profit margin after all costs. At times he needs help but he can’t find anybody who could do part time. It’s a nice business and way of life and one I’m envious of to be honest. [/QUOTE]
