Successful Smallholding: Planning, Starting and Managing Your Enterprise

Successful Smallholding: Planning, Starting and Managing Your Enterprise

by J C Jeremy Hobson (Author), Phil Rant (Author)

Synopsis

Downshifting has become synonymous with selling up, starting a smallholding and escaping the rat race. Some people are lucky enough to purchase a property large enough to ensure that the whole family is self-sufficient, but for most only enough land will be available to make smallholding a hobby. Accordingly, this book caters for those with a small amount of land and for the lucky minority with a much larger acreage. Many of the books currently available mention only the pleasures of owning a smallholding, this volume adopts a pragmatic approach and discusses the many pitfalls.
