[QUOTE="Two Tone, post: 7720716, member: 44728"] Who mentioned anything about not running this farming business 100%? However, If I can’t get the satisfaction I want from farming the way I want to farm it, I’ll get out of it fast. Nobody is forcing me to farm and while I enjoy it, it is my personality preference to continue to do so. Pride and happiness are personal values are indeed personal aspirations. But once they are gone, I’ll do something else. There may be a lot of farmers heading for a massive financial reality check. Some of us are way ahead in not only the planning stages, but putting it into action to alleviate such problems. This can give us an even greater sense of pride in having done so. If you aren’t wealthy enough to at least have some fun in what you do God help us all! As for comparing using Contractors making Silage for Dairy farmers, I see little comparison in relying on them to get my arable harvest in! When it comes down to it and our ultimate financial income, it’s like relying on the same contractor to do the milking too! We don’t all have to run Combines less that 5 years old to get the harvest in. If we know our way around a tool box, they aren’t that difficult or expensive to fix and run. Mine is 10 years old and has only ever see a main dealer mechanic twice in its life. The Contracting it has earned makes it almost FOC to me. [/QUOTE]
