Organic oats bought in Lidl sourced from the UK.

This is very interesting, especially the lady, can you describe in more detail (I think she is the key to understanding your dream) ��

A brunette with long hair. Could have been wearing a linen shirt.

This all could be the effects of liming the calf house. Both myself and the hawk with a dry environment..

Maybe the mods could move it to the nature on my farm thread?

I'm sure the Mods would find a home somewhere for it, in the After Hours forum.

Or the Conspiracy forum?


Only a few more months to go.

Whist what?

How's that little loader of yours getting on?

Looking at buying a car/van off the crowd im working for just for using at home were not registered for VAT at home but can we claim it back against the farm later in the year? Thanks in advance.

I'm no expert, but There's room to offset against farm tax at a percentage every year for a few years , may have to be registered to the farm owner tho. No vat can be reclaimed unless man paying for van is vat registered.

Tis the man that owns the place will be buying it. Must look at offsetting it over a few years.

I think it's the same as machinery, claim it back over 7 years, years 1 - 6 is 15% and 10% the last year ..... if it's for the farm

I see now it's 12.5% over eight years

Whats the definition for 'its for the farm" these days? Does part time farming make a difference?

Another sad case https://www.agriland.ie/farming-news/2-elderly-men-found-dead-at-cork-farm/?utm_content=buffer472ca&utm_medium=social&utm_source=facebook.com&utm_campaign=buffer&fbclid=IwAR07yF9RsrwvzOJ21MKoRQq1-GiZh3lGlrcFcqUBvit7deYLQ7WKnx0BiwI

Well they won't allow you full depreciation if it's seldom used for the farm,

Deprecation can be any rate the asset owner wants within reason (Computers are often as high as 50% PA) however the full depreciation expense in the accounts P&L is added back on the form 11 to give an adjusted taxed profit or loss


Capital Allowance is 12.5% or 8 years.
You adjust this by the % of farm use


So 16k car used 30% for farm = €16k *12.5% = €2,000 x 30% = €600 capital allowance


16k tractor used 100% for farm = €2,000 Capital allowance

Fierce handy,gets into the corners, saves a bit of work with the timber handled implement

Did anyone else get a text from the department saying there is new correspondence for them on agfood?

We sent in our partnership application online yesterday. I thought it was something to do with that. But all I can see under correspondence is bps maps and forms. Everything to be paperless from now on

Yep, I did.
What's the story with it?
Edit. Logged on there. BPS message.
I stuck in the 2021 application while I was there.

Yeah, got one as well. Some correspondence under the correspondence section on Agfood...... EMS statement of entitlements for 2021, issued 25/02/21.

Yea I got it and took ages to find out what section it was. I thought it was I relation to tams application first. Then I thought it was I relation to sheep welfare scheme as I was emailing them about that during week. Eventually saw it was bps. They should have clarified in the text.
