[QUOTE="Al R, post: 7460842, member: 7565"] Costings: £40/ewe/year excluding labour the sheep have to pay their own rent at £30/year, Vet/med/mineral blocks/consumables £10/ewe/year.. Labour comes to circa £23/ewe which includes all labour costs for the year including fencing, arable work which isn’t much but still included as labour. Almost a totally closed flock apart from a few rams, the rams are homebred too. Apart from a few hill farms or people with very big cheap acreages I’m not sure how other standard lowland farms would compare? I know my vet and med is considered very low almost too low by some people but I don’t do a lot of things that a lot of flocks do do. [/QUOTE]
