[QUOTE="MrNoo, post: 7403959, member: 2767"] To be honest with the amount of £££££'s we put through a sprayer it is in our interest to check it's all ok whenever we use it, same with fert spreaders but (certainly with the sprayer) I cant sign the right NRSO membership pass doc as I'm not qualified. Hell, I can build a sprayer but cant give it a yearly MOT. Also filling forms in, action plans etc, any other industry would charge you through the nose for this sort of thing, what would a manager charge if you had to pay for his service on an hourly rate? Why are we farmers supposed to charge ourselves out for minimum wage, fine if youre a big estate, you'll probably have someone employed to fill out all this type of guff full time. But I bet if you added it up over a year, 5 mins here 10 there, you would be amazed how long it all takes and if on an hourly rate, costs. But without walking around with a stopwatch all year I dont know accurately exactly how much time it does take [/QUOTE]
