Default UK farm profitability to jun 2002

most of us are.
We have rejigged the business twice in pretty major ways. Both times in
response to economic situations created entirely by government/EU
action. Both times it worked and in both cases was then rendered void by
new government action.

The problem is this takes time, and our third rejigging will probably
take another two or more years because agriculture works over that sort
of time scale.
Remember with agriculture that 'walking away tomorrow' can take over a
year, especially if, like most farmers, you have some tenancy
agreements.

Nevertheless the ball is in your court. If you don't like your
hours/pay/conditions then change it, whinging not achieve anything.

I take your point that it may take some time and effort but it is
achievable if you want to do it.

Cheers
Dave
