Randell Agriculture s managing director William Randell said the decision had been taken with a heavy heart in the wake of October s blaze in Toftwood which destroyed buildings and stock, as well as leaving one employee hospitalised with minor burns.
While the worker made a full and quick recovery, Mr Randell said the complex insurance claim of the substantial losses had still not been resolved.
