Mass Balance sheet

[Flat 10]

I think all of us can work out a way to make it work, the point is that it’s pointless as we have basically been told we can make it up. So why should we do it? It basically sums up RT.

 

[PSQ]

RT might as well re-name ‘Mass Balance’ as ‘Mills and Boon’ as they’re both a complete work of fiction with a happy ending, with a lot of ‘fondling’ on the way.

Nice bit of info for them to sell.
if we had a union...

Is there anything they can do if the figures are wildly exaggerated or incorrect???
If I had a 300 ton heap and said I'd estimated it to be 3000 because I'm a poor judge of size but then amanded it once all grain has been loaded out would I fail or would that be exceptable.

I know people who wouldn't have a clue how many times is in a given heap so it's perfectly possible.

I might try it and see

Presumably RT would be supposed to check the figures balanced, otherwise what's the point of having an audited mass balance calc. How could it satisfy EU rules if it wasn't checked?

What’s the point of Red Tractor?!

There isn't anymore it's a protection racket that's legal

And funnily enough they don't dispute it.

 

[willy]

It is a protection racket, so how come with today's transparency and rech through social media, we can't throw them out?

Demand for product negates quality - the barley I sold for the highest price was the worst sample I'd ever seen. Borderline bushel, stalks in, dusty etc. Not an eyelid batted. Last march they found any reason to get a quid off the most beautiful spring barley that was £50/t cheaper to begin with.

Unless your farm is like Steptoe & Son, you ought sail through ACC's with half a days prep and some nouse. The most likely "fudge" to go wrong would be filling in a day spraying that was blowing a gale, but you can get a historical weather report if you "forgot" when you sprayed the stuff. I mean, can everyone actually honestly say they completes every bit of their vermin baiting, or knapsack checks? Reality - knapsack checks are :

1) did knapsack work yesterday or did i get soaked with roundup?
2) if the latter, did I fix it, or go buy a new one?

We all bait our rodents, but really who fills in the sheet every time, compared to who fills in the gaps the day before. They're not going to do a rat block stock take.

You already have a map of your grain store with intake moistures and varieties? So just wrote a guesstimate of tonnages. Check grain later, put down guess of heap size.

I think your out of date with the baiting, you dont bait unless you see evidence of rodents, so as from last year i never saw any evidence and never buy or use rodenticides, so there was nothing to record.
