[QUOTE="Fowler VF, post: 6857458, member: 57664"] yes. Did it a long while back; wheat price was on the floor, I knew my price of production per tonne was more than the forward price and by not growing I could cut all the costs to zero because all work was done by contractors. Shut the gate on 100 acres. Volunteers came in the spring and we decided not to burn them off. Too thick in places, not enough in others, but its was amazing what came. A lot of thistles and greenery. Rounduped it off and cut 2t/acre. Appalling looking thin sample but it was a freebie! Probably made more money out of that crop than a good many before and since!!
