    The reason why I ask, is that I'm trying to figure out how much our current livestock will be under the post 2020 headcount subsidy. Does anyone know how stocking rates that were paid in the early 2000s when cap was based on animal numbers.

    Can you explain in a bit more detail what info you need as I'm confused with your post.

    The calculation for LU's hasn't changed over the years -
