Basically I have a 140ft x 50ft shed sat empty through the summer. Iv looked in to bed and breakfast contracts and can’t help but think a buy back contract from a cooperative might be a more profitable option?

Someone has said the cost of a 30kg weaner would be £45.

Can anyone advise me on costs to get them to finished weight?

Please share your advice as I’m interested in trying it this summer, with a view that if it works we could do it year round. I’m getting mixed views and would like some advice off people who have experience? Thanks

I believe Meadow Quality might be able to help you with your above option. A lot will depend on your location. Finding a B & B contract in some parts is like finding rocking horse sh!t.
