[QUOTE="The Fenster, post: 6727667, member: 54382"] Hi All, Hopefull thread name will get some attention! Farm up the road has just become available , it’s ring fenced with housing and grazing for up to 300 cows plus followers and in addition around 400 ewes ( lambs fattened off farm in past) Very nice set up, relatively modern , all stock fenced etc. The owner wants to keep all BPS payments and environmental scheme payments and rent accordingly. Currently having just taken on a new tenancy I don’t have anywhere near the funds to stock it, my only thought was to get sheep and cattle in on keep and provide equipment and husbandry , care etc. Was thinking store cattle in the sheds etc, potentially get 400 ewes on keep and lamb down, provide year round care etc. Payments on a headage basis, paid monthly . Still finding funds for necessary equipment would be hard, so also thought about going in 50:50 with a partner to set up , 50/50 on rent, part on my contribution could /would be actually doing the necessary work valuing my time accordingly, profits would then be split 50:50 as well or according to relative contributions. Interested to hear peoples views, could be complete pie in the sky, and understand it sounds complicated, please pick apart at will. Best wishes Fenster [/QUOTE]
