The price of land.

[coomoo]

The thing is with the price/acreage ratio if you could afford a place like this in all probability you already run a similar unit. After that it’s the ‘Mega Farms’ adding slurry silage acres

 

[Cuthbert]

It’s been sold anyhow was sold about a month ago now to a neighbor,the challoch farm is still on the market, very well set up unit, you could sell your milk to arla, first milk nestle, yew tree or lactalis.

Know someone from south who bought a farm in that area putting a rotary on it I think

Makes our two wee 10k bits over the last couple of years look like value for money!

That seems very reasonable for what it is. Be looking at double that down south...

That farm at leswallt looks a lovely farm? Is this part of wigtownshire dryer than ayrshire? Would it be grass only or would it be arable capable aswell?

That farm at leswalt is dodgy as hell the owners are a family of crooks, nothing more to be said. As for would it be capable of arable, well yes but trying arable in that part of the world you'd need a good drier.

 

[mixed farm]

My favourite quote ever was when some one went to walk a mixed farm and they were asked what it was like. "Some of it is arable and some of it is 'orrible"

 

[ejenergy]

I see, Thats why its not sold yet then... It look's like a cracking unit though.

 

[Sparky270]

It is pity about the owners , should have had it took off them ,probably bought with ill gotten gains !!
