well there you have it. this is the last chance saloon. the government feels that the only way to prevent people from stopping crashing out of the eu in parlaiment is to somehow get people to riot so they can declare an emergency and suspend the benn law and crash out the eu. it seems they are resigned to not being able to pass a single bill so they will govern by dictatorially.

right wing reporters saying on live tv that people should riot. manchild openly talking about about the benn bill being capitulation and surrender.

So where do you get the water from, if it is a bore hole, there electric to pay, if it is agricultural you have to pay. So you don't spray, fertilise, prune the trees??

All this costs money. How big is the orchard??

I have such a place and it costs me a small fortune to operate, I get very little subsidies and I have only just started claiming after about 30+ years of not. Mine is 7.5 scales. I have 5 bore holes, agricultural water, electric on site, nothing is free.
I also give away a shed load of fruits, just how much can one eat??? :)

you don't have to use electricity on an orchard, water is free from the ground and fertaliser is free all round you. as to water mankind has been extracting water from the ground for thousands of years how long exactly has electricity been around.
it is just for personal consumption why do you grow 7.5 donums. we used to grow 10 donums of tomatoe and used to flood lefkosha with tomatoes and broadbeans.

Why not have a roadside market stall every Saturday and sell what you don't need?

Can't you sell your produce at the market?

There should be some wholesaler that will take your produce, pay you the rate to stock the supermarket shelves.
