[QUOTE="DrWazzock, post: 6521584, member: 2119"] What never fails to amaze about some farmers is how they run a business model where the odds are seriously stacked against them, be it trying to combine 38,000 acres in the wettest part of the country with a JD1085 where they have paid £200/acre rent or run a suckler herd in the outer hebrides buying every input in off the ferry ........ then they moan and blame everybody else for the fact they can't make a profit. Well get a calculator and get real. Some business models don't add up. If it doesn't work, stop doing it. It it does work, milk it. We are already subsidised to a fair old amount. Don't push it and expect to be baled out as a result of your free choice poorly made. [/QUOTE]
