[QUOTE="egbert, post: 6573807, member: 9965"] don't wish to pry...but does the 'profit before subsidy' account for an hourly rate you could be earning elsewhere? That's key if you're considering changing the system. I sometimes crunch all the numbers, and always factor that in (albeit at a rather lower rate than some of the non-farm work I do, as to be blunt, I could always employ a shepherd etc, at rather less than I earn on some work.) In fact, it's a useful gauge.... ask yourself how much it would cost to get emergency cover if you broke a leg! [/QUOTE]
