Is This Bad Husbandry?

I have read the entire contract several times and I have been through it with solicitors and a QC, who would now be a KC.

Makes no difference if he's been there since the early 80s. He's got an agricultural tenancy, unless there's a specific agreement to end the tenancy.

Finally somebody who speaks sense has appeared

Even if the grazing licence only allowed 364 day use as most did?

Regardless of why he was buying them he should have still done his due diligence…

He maybe values the access higher than the land. Sounds as if he knew what he was in for

 

[Ffermer Bach]

You could look wealthy to him too!

I don't believe it's ever been a crime to be wealthy!

Like click bait this thread, seems the LL knows what’s what, knows the tennant, knows what’s going on, but just doesn know what a lamb adopter is! ( does now) but more and more stories come out, you can sort of paint a picture in your own head of the type of guy he is!

I could understand that someone who had never worked with sheep would not recognise a lamb adopter. Even big landowners like Jeremy Clarkson tried to lamb a sheep through it's backside.
My ex neighbour owned a big farm for 40 years and never lambed a sheep.

The fact that the tenant is said to be on 3 yearly driving licence renewals probably means that the issue will resolve itself, rather sooner than later...
Perhaps even before this thread expires.
Although in actuarial terms, if you get to 75, your chances of making 85 are good. It's between 88 and 91 that your likelihood of tasting turkey again falls of a cliff.

sometimes the tenant outlives the landlord!

You are not the shepherd

How do you know if they have never met the shepherd, could be anyone of us who is “the shepherd” and not very happy with your interfering of there ewe.

Crime pays, so I believe.

Back in the day 364 day licences to avoid an AHA tenancy required the approval from MAFF. to be legal. The need for that disappeared with the 1995 Agriculture act to allow FBT's.

Not sure how you can have only been LL 24hrs but not seen him since last Easter.

Maybe, but we’ve gone from animal husbandry to all and sundry of things, like a thread of an attention deficit!

Easy, I have lived on site for years and he does not attend to the sheep in person.

What's the problem with the if he has a 'herdsman' that does

None.
The tenant cannot legally sublet though.
The tenant is welcome to produce employment documents and it is within the lease for the LL to require him to do so.

Really?

Really?

Yes.

 

[workin f nowt]

Yes.

Not necessarily. His stockperson should we refer to him as could quite easily be self employed so no documentation required. Fancy this be the case if as you say has a holding of his own.

If the sheep belong to the shepherd then the tenant is subletting.
