Did you do your own calculations or did you get help with the paperwork?

I use the departments online calculators to work our's out, we've not had an inspection yet, so I'm not sure if it'll tick their boxes.

FOR SALE

Several hundred thousand gallons of cattle slurry, good stuff. Sold for no fault.

Part exchange for clamp silage considered.

Since we're posting old quotes, I found this. I only thought I was in bother back in March...... Any takers?

I think better to do your own, or thats the impression I got when I had an inspection. Thought they could have been tighter on my figures but I think with me trying, it demonstrated I had an understanding of it if nothing else.

Are these inspectors based in Lisburn? Are they working their way through in alphabetical order? Red tractor's coming here shortly, that's bad enough.

I think it's random although they knew I'd exceeded the limit before they arrived and if they wanted could of chosen a different year. 11 12 13"14 or 15. Cattle numbers from aphis and land farmed from sfp

Oh well, the yard got a good wash tonight.

I'm just back in from choir practice. 15 miles home at 40mph. Standing water and flooding the whole way. Unreal.

It was so bad here this evening, the batch of continental heifers we'd been trying to round up for the last 10 days, finally went to the collecting pen of their own accord.

I was 179kg/ha n limit 170.

So what figure do you use per cow?

 

[it's not over]

Right the 27p question. Here's a milk cheque from 1994,23 years ago. Nearly 24p and we're supposed to be happy with 27p.

No one is happy with 27p, except when it's 17p. Volatility seems to be the buzz word, 27p might help to smooth the curve.

Back then though you would be spending a fair bit on buying or leasing quota which took afair whack of the milk cheque!
