Labour-costs

 In the Netherlands there special companies who does the land-work. The reason that farms do that is:

• They have better machines
• They can work faster
• They’re doing the work cheaper
• The farmer can do other things
• The farmer can stay by his animals, so he can also get more animals.
• The farmer don’t have cost with the machines

If you do this with the companies you must make a good appointment, so that they can work by you at the time you want them to.  

In Norway we don’t have this services, because there are mostly small farms, and not a big market for these companies. And it’s not profitable. In Norway  there are very small and hilly fields.
