Not good I'm afraid. We're running at a big loss at the moment and trying to ride it out. Our other ventures are only partially absorbing the losses. If the supermarkets don't wake up soon there will be no farmers and no food. And I might have to start thinning out the bike collection.
Hope you can keep your head above water and all works out for your industry, if Tesco etc are not careful it will get to a stage when they import milk and we will all be paying a high price for it.
Cheers pal, thanks for the words of encouragement. It would be a tragedy if agriculture went down the pan like every other industry this country ever had.
@BIG M, same problems are being faced by our farmers here too, keep ya chin up and box on fella, it's bound to come right soon .
Thanks @NZDave You're right it's not good anywhere at the moment, it's a crazy world, one half doesn't want food whilst the other half starves . @Nelson you've got a point maybe I should go into the energy business. Wind turbines, solar panels and anaerobic digester to turn manure into energy because soon cow shit will be worth more than milk!
