I know the horse subject has been done before but I'm after some dos and don'ts!
I've got 5ac pasture and 5ac newish hay/grazing ley with a fairly modern open fronted barn. As I work off site driving machines for other people I'm looking to maximise what I can get from my patch.
I'd prefer to rent it to someone starting off in ag with calves etc but sadly I don't for a minute think I could get the £25-30/horse/week for 4 or 5 horses.
This is really my first foray into the world of horses and horse owners - so for those more experienced in this field than me - any do's/don'ts? how to vet owners? contracts?
TIA
