    E1000 an acre ? Usually the few gardens (<10acres) close to the house would be of better quality, if that already gone off of it and it's pure steep rocky outcrop I don't know if I even would go 40k for 40 acres but all depends on circumstances - if it is beside you And you can get national reserve to get a man started poor hectare pays same as a limestone one !

    40 acres 16.2 ha

    E250 NR
    E69 YFS
    E100 ANC

    E419 X 16.2HA = E6787... He'd have gone a good way on paying it off in 6 years especially if he could get it into next agri environmental scheme

    NR - National Reserve .. If young qualified farmer with green cert earning under 40k you can apply to this fund for E250 per hectare entitlement

    YFS is young farmer scheme , young qualified farmer get 25% top up on existing and NR entitlements regardless of income up to a max of 50 Ha.

    ANC is area of natural constraint ( old disadvantaged scheme)

    109.99 for first 10 ha, 95.99 for remaining 24ha, max 3400.86, I rounded it to E100 per ha for handiness in your calculations .. You need to have stock for this payment 0.15 lu for 12 mts or 0.3lu for 7 consecutive months

    As is usual with these replies no talk about tax. Will have to be stocked for ANC. Stock will have to be looked after, maybe land fenced, more expense.How could it be paid off in six years?

    Who told you there will be a National Reserve next year. This will only happen if funding is available. With the clawback on entitlement sales there is vary little funding for this scheme

    If you planted it....the premiums would nearly meet repayments??

    And you'd have crop of trees as profit

    Yeah you are right no NR confirmed for 2018 yet, could be 2019. Tax .. i took a gamble on an extra bit in 2013 and it's paid off and I fully tax compliant. Bit of my own money Put in for sure on fencing, crushes , solicitors fees etc for sure but it's my own now ... I'd always back a man to have a punt and see how it goes, land is a solid investment in my eyes.

    Fair play if you can buy land under 2k cause your talkin a ror of 8-10 percent if your a good farmer,most farmland would be ror of 3-4 per cent.but each man woman and farm is different

    Yea ror is rate of return.im sceptical of them prices,maybe its low to entice a bidding war or maybe its because of the volume,difference in buyin 200acre mountain and 40acre
