Slightly O/T - Any farmers about?

entitlments are trading at approx 1-1.3 atm depending on what and where....so you'll get 34/acre approx if you sign up before 1 april but will get money back dec, then next year etc.

on our 17 acres we get approx £1500 give or take the euro exchange rate.

What do you need to do to get that. I applied spending ages filling forms in on our 15 acres and received £100 then spent the next 3 years arguing how many acres we have after they deduct off for the stream that flows through the land and the temporary shed we built which knocked off 0.12 of an acre which then made the claim invalid. RPA has a lot to answer for. After that I gave up as for £100 it was not worth the effort but for £1500 I might reconsider.
