Wales Farm Business Grants....

The solar engergiser wasn't an option in the first round.

The solar engergiser wasn't an option in the first round.

It's only a diddy one, with a 'standard' price of £240 (£96 grant). It has to have an output of at least 0.15J, which is about enough to keep a horse behind a short fence. One big enough to use on a decent sheep fence would cost considerably more than that. Scores 227 points though.

Only interested in a fuel tank but they only pay out for a 1500L one although you can go as big as you want. The only other item I was interested in were the silage pit mats which they've removed from the list after one manufacturer threatened to take the matter to court for discriminating against his mats as they fell outside the specs for not being heavy enough. The fuel tank alone doesn't qualify due to the minimum claim so, I went to the boring evening for nothing

Is there anything exciting on the list?

I've plumped for a grass seed drill, a new fuel tank (as I need to renew by a couple of years time anyway) and a solar powered energiser (just to get higher average point score).

Apply for a solar engergiser as well and I'll "find a job for it"
Edit: you still won't be up to £3k limit. Damn

I haven't been able to find a 1500 litre one to meet the spec, they all seem to be a touch under that so have ordered a 2500litre one. Ordered crush and headscoop, got the laptop, Just need to get weighbars now and send receipts in on time

Probably this-

Basically grant funds- provided in the form of lending facilities, for start ups/SMEs- so not really banking as such- more grant funding

The last bank of Wales, was a part of Bank of Scotland.
