Oh sorry - hadn't given it a thought since.
Is that something to be ashamed of? Did we know there was 36,000 tons?
Are you saying we can all be rich if we have enough silage?
Uk has smallest new build properties in the EU

No.
But someone clever could have worked out through some simple research that contractors charge about £100 per acre.
Which gives you 1800 acres. And about 20 ton per acre.
Thats correct.
But not enough land to go around as they have stopped making it.
But they haven't stopped building on it.
Assuming they were interested.
Surely there would not be enough demand and the price would collapse.
Better keep it a secret, then.
Nor enough to grow enough unwanted animals to eat it.
There's plenty they haven't started building on.
The big landowners won't allow it on their land.
Their will always be a demand for electricity.

The land is needed for food production.
And more commonly now, electricity production.
So, are you saying his Lordship is ripping-off the country?
I don't really know what you are on about.
A Lord makes lots of money from his land - which was probably not paid for.
They all do. That's how it works in the UK.

Absolute nonsense.

No it doesnt, you are wrong
These big subsidies are entirely due to UK government:
"But the European commission said in a statement that EU rules allow member states to substantially cut CAP “basic payments” to large landowners, such as most of those cited in the Greenpeace report, by applying a ceiling. Nine countries do so, the commission said, including Britain which applies an upper limit in Northern Ireland, Scotland and Wales, where the funds generated are generally spent on rural development projects."
“The UK government chooses not to apply a ceiling in England,” the commission said, adding that repeated proposals for more radical reform – including a compulsory ceiling on basic payments to large landowners – have “consistently been watered down by national ministers”.
But now even France is signaling that the Common Agricultural Policy is not the sacred cow it once was, and that a sweeping new approach is required. Britain's departure from the EU is set to blow a €12 billion annual hole in the 2021-2027 budget cycle — a funding shortfall that is forcing a significant strategic reconsideration of the bloc's spending.

I'm not wrong, capped or not, the money still comes from the EU.
Almost as if we had a government that favoured handouts to the rich.
How could that happen?
