Selling meat off farm that is slaughtered by a registered abattoir

Hi, I read the answer to a post about the process of how to go about legally slaughtering and selling meat off farm, and that it was a costly and lengthy process. How much would that change if the body is slaughtered by a registered abattoir? Then we would cut it up and package it here to be frozen and sold frozen from here...?

Looking at buying 700 acres

Im looking at purchasing around 700 acres in the New England region as a hobby / small production farm of goats and beef cattle has a few dams and creek water and relatively good boundary fencing for cattle. I would like to keep atleast 500 goats or so also once the fencing is up graded and divided into cells would I be able to make a small profit on running beef and goats. Any infomation would be greatly appreciated.

What to do?

Hello my name is Andrew,

My family has owned a parcel of land in the wollongong region for 150 years.

The property is now roughly 100 acres (50 of thick scrub and 50 of heavily weeded wirey Kikuyu.

Recently we have started to spray the weeds on our property hoping to get it cleared of weeds and mowed so we can begin to start farming again.

primary producer qualification

Good morning all, I have read an older post on page 12 asking about the $20,000 assessable income test. One of the replies had a link to the ATO website for Non- commercial (losses?) which explains that to claim the losses from a business you must earn under $250,000 from other sources. On the left side is a bunch of headings one of which is EXCEPTIONS & it says to claim losses from primary production you need to earn less than $40,000 from other sources? I will be asking an accountant in the near future regarding this but in the meantime can anyone clarify this somewhat for me.

New to the game

Hi, 

 

I am interested in some advice about potentially buying 1000 acres in the Hunter Valley to graze cattle on. I currently live overseas and will return to Australia over next few years and will build a house on it and live there as a primary residence. We have two young boys who I would love to allow them to grow up in this lifestyle. I have no experience in farming.

Lantana control

hello & thanks for the add to group. I am looking at a 570 acre property near stroud nsw, about 100 acres are cleared & the rest is steep dense rainforest with a large ammount of lantana present. Can someone help with advise on what my responsibility will be in regards to this, eg what time frame do you normally get to start eradication, what rate of treatment would be acceptable to keep authorities happy that you are genuinly having a go (acres per month treated), average cost per acre for self treatment & approx cost per acre for a contractor to do it.
