Sorry Janet, but that’s just discounted half of Shropshire, where our most profitable crops are things like spuds, beet, maize followed by wheat that is often plough/ combi drilled well into October or November .
no way are we turning to unprofitable spring cereals or beans to claim a few pounds per acre .
if higher value crops are so much more finically attractive why is loss of subsidy a big deal ? surely it inconsequential almost on higher output farms
