[QUOTE="Kiwi Pete, post: 6666133, member: 63856"] Mistakes are just so damned expensive? What if you spent your whole farming year and made no profit at all, isn't that a clue to do something different? Fear is a stronger driver than sex or success, so we buy insurance (everything from filling out a BPS claim to putting on fert/worming stock is insurance) but what if that risk perception reaction is the true limiter of growth? I've a good mate who is a "regenerative sheep farmer" yet still has very short grass and worms his sheep every 28 days; he just hasn't seen the connection yet that the two must be related, as everything is related. I think he's scared of failure, ie not finishing all his lambs before winter is failure to him. But is it? I would define "management failure" by the need to compromise our biome's diversity by putting chemicals on it, not by having a few scrawny hung lambs over winter or a few thistles [/QUOTE]
