[QUOTE="holwellcourtfarm, post: 7590445, member: 42914"] Plenty of us older farmers are in a similar position. I'd love to see that used as the way in for keen youngsters. With the right mindset a business can be created that can pay a good return to all parties if you start from a blank sheet and look at all the income opportunities now rearing their heads. I'm sure I'm not the only one who's discounted good income options in the past just because I didn't fancy the compromises i'd have had to make. With new blood coming in they could be happy to do those things that just didn't tick my boxes, to the benefit of both. Difficulty gaining access to land is the biggest hurdle facing new entrants today. You have the opposite problem, land you don't know what to do with. There's space in the middle to make it work if you can find the right person/ couple. [/QUOTE]
