[QUOTE="ollie989898, post: 7393886, member: 54866"] I agree entirely, but it is like many things in life: you can make money from certain things but you need to factor in your time/hassle/enjoyment of it. For some arable farmers, they don't want the grief. My friend used to bale for some big estates to the North/East of here and woe betide if you weren't there on time. And that went for everyone: the man on the baler, the bale chasers, the wagons, the lot. Some contractors/merchants will bale and take away virtually anything because they know they have such a range of buyers. I worked on a place where the linseed and the OSR haulm went somewhere for someone each year without fail. Search me who but it all went out of our way. [/QUOTE]
