It could be argued that farming is something of a gambler’s profession, placing large bets without any certainty of an outcome.
This could be as basic as planting that crop of winter wheat on low-lying fields, or a longer-term risk such as investing in a new shed or breeding bull.
These bets are not placed blind – past experiences or learning from others often make these wagers more of an informed decision.
Furthermore, markets have been relatively stable and, if you’ve gone “all-in” in the past, CAP support has been good at topping up the pot at the end of each year, allowing us to make the same mistakes all over again the following year.
