[QUOTE="Steevo, post: 7923656, member: 430"] You are very correct. Put like that is sounds very simple and logical. It never seems quite so in real life though....probably because you see the big sums going out annually when you pay the bill compared to if you have your own machine. Getting a contractor in to cut 20ac with a brand new Lexion driven by an experience operator would be brilliant value at £50/ac compared to the farm running its own machine, even if the contractor is making a 20% margin. As the area gets larger it's more tricky, but where the cutoff lies is a very difficult question indeed because it depends on so many factors. [/QUOTE]
