rent reviews ramping up

[Billboy1]

fw seems to think above is happening ? not seeing it here i think they have very little case to do so at the moment so why publish such a thing ?

We certainly had it happen to us. I’d keep land owner aware that BPS was being reduced and they had agent inform us wheat was £350/t & OSR (which landowner wouldn’t let us grow on parts of the farm) was £800.
I replied to agent what was their suggested selling price in 2022?
Finally came to a head and gave notice to quit. They suggested a £20/ac rent increase!
I haven’t missed it this year

Fair play. If more did that fbt rents wouldn't be so stupid. That's why we don't even bother looking at them these days, if other people want to work for nothing at high risk that's up to them.

SFI must have put a base in.

Ah the joys of SFI! I have clients where agents assume all grass is now drawing £383 hectare herbal ley payment, which they would like.

FBT with 5 year renewals. Got lost over years but ended up with a 21 year relationship. Some good years and some bad. Wet ones stand, as did 2019 for highest yields.
Had hassle at the start as previous tenant took the historic payments meaning we had to go through national reserve!

Buy your own whenever you get half a chance.

What land?!?! Yeah with the profits from my rented farm.

 

[yellow belly]

Without sfp/bps and prices for crops in 2024 and machinery labour and imputs the case for aha and fbt rents is lower based on income

all sfi options after seed machinery and labour are no higher margin than a crop growing or mixed farming rotation at current 2024 costs

I read it.
It seems to be more of a 'project fear' type article by the TFA trying to drum up business, but stirring things at the same time.

Good job this new payment scheme isnt tranferring money back to the landowner then @Clive
