[QUOTE="gone up the hill, post: 9111523, member: 1048"] £5000 YEARLY cost to do the RT GFC for a 300 acre mixed farm. ( According to RT research into the cost of doing it ) And the £5000 CANNOT be recouped from selling RT produce so a NET cost for being allowed to be RT assured, add on another £2000 for the current RT cost to comply with scheme rules will = £7000 net costs for a 300 acre family mixed farm to be assured. Or put another way that 300 acre farm will have to buy and fat 700 store lambs and use the £10 head net profit or buy 70 store cattle and fatten at the net £100 profit to cover the cover the costs of being GFC RT assured before they even start making any profit for themselves or to re-invest in the business/ farm! Totally unviable [/QUOTE]
