Talking to a farmer that has a couple of small places that join a couple pastures. Was asking if I could fence them off since they were so small for his big tractors. Not allowed because of the subsidies he gets... He can only cut them once a year and pick the stuff up loose to feed...
This guy is an organic dairy farmer with 50 acres (25 hectare) of sugar beets and grass (don't know the mix).... he said for the 25 hectare that he gets 14000 euro from the government, then extra money because he feeds his cattle natural (not chemically fertilized) grass/feed.....
with the exchange rate, that's right at $300 per acre..... just on the land..... Normal farmers get half that and have the expense of buying fertilizer...
