Correct.it feeds to many useless mouths
.
Personally, i think we've bigger fish to fry than navel gazing about whether sheep pay in the UK , as the great and the good realise we're already part of their solution (carbon woes et al), rather than the problem.
I predict that, as with subs, any payments or profits along these lines will ultimately be channelled to the landowner.
It's a problem the great and the good are well aware of.
Whether future schemes address it remain to be seen (you can be sure that unseen silky soft smooth unblistered hands with no shite under their nails... are gently nudging for the status quo in this matter)
If it doesn't improve, and it bothers you...buy land.
No in the UK. The annual yield is rubbish, I can think of much better asset classes.
When I do buy land it will be somewhere where the purchase price is still tied to the productive potential.
The unsubsidized southern hemisphere is currently enjoying record sheep meat prices.
Prime lamb is making millionaires in Australia.
Often smaller sheep farms will run with minimal labourI think the average farm according to Cambridge university was 250 ewes and 30 sucklers. I don't expect many of the most work off the farm.
