- daemin 2y agoI think it's made clear in the show that just running the farm by itself would not be profitable, and if lucky would break even. Other farmers in the area are in far worse situations financially as they do not have a TV show as a sponsor. Granted he did go and try things which seemed nice but were ultimately unprofitable - big tractor, sheep farming, etc.
- tempfile 2y agoYeah, it's a good show. I just mean that regarding the original point (tech workers fantasising about farms are deluding themselves) the counter "they are thinking of something like Clarkson's farm" still conforms with them deluding themselves.
