Notes to the Abbreviated Accounts
For The Year Ended 31 October 2013


1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Accounting convention
The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention and in accordance with the
Financial Reporting Standard for Smaller Entities (effective April 2008).

Turnover
The turnover shown in the profit and loss account represents amounts receivable for goods and services sold
during the year, exclusive of VAT, but does not include the proportion of direct costs recharged to landowners
under shared farming agreements, these items being set against the relevant costs incurred by the company.

In respect of long-term contracts and contracts for on going services, turnover represents the value of the work
done during the year, including estimates of amounts not invoiced. Turnover in respect of long term contracts
and contracts for on going services is recognised by reference to the stage of completion.

Tangible fixed assets
Depreciation is provided at the following annual rates in order to write off each asset over its estimated useful
life.

Land and buildings - not provided
Plant and machinery etc - 20% on cost, 12.5% on cost

Stocks
Stocks are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value.

Cost of seeds, fertilisers, sprays and fuels in store is determined principally on a first in first out basis. In the
case of harvested crops, cost is based on all direct expenditure incurred in production. Work-in-progress
consists of cultivations which are valued on the basis of all direct expenditure incurred.

Net realisable value is the price at which the stock can be realised in the normal course of business.

Deferred tax
Deferred tax is recognised in respect of all timing differences that have originated but not reversed at the
balance sheet date where transactions or events have occurred at that date that will result in an obligation to
pay more, or a right to pay less or to receive more tax, with the following exceptions:

- Provision is made for tax on gains arising from the revaluation (and similar fair value adjustments) of fixed
assets, and gains on disposal of fixed assets that have been rolled over into replacement assets, only to the
extent that, at the balance sheet date, there is a binding agreement to dispose of the assets concerned.
However, no provision is made where, on the basis of all available evidence at the balance sheet date, it is more
likely than not that the taxable gain will be rolled over into replacement assets and charged to tax only where the
replacement assets are sold.

- Deferred tax assets are recognised only to the extent that the directors consider that it is more likely than not
that there will be suitable taxable profits from which the future reversal of the underlying timing differences can
be deducted.

Deferred tax is measured on an undiscounted basis at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the periods in
which timing differences reverse, based on tax rates and laws enacted or substantively enacted at the balance
sheet date.

Hire purchase and leasing commitments
Rentals paid under operating leases are charged to the profit and loss account on a straight line basis over the
period of the lease.

Pension costs and other post-retirement benefits
The company operates a defined contribution pension scheme. Contributions payable to the company's
pension scheme are charged to the profit and loss account in the period to which they relate.

For The Year Ended 31 October 2013


1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued

Single farm payment subsidy income
Provided that, at the balance sheet date, the company has submitted its single farm payment claim form (which
relates to the calendar year in which the balance sheet date falls) on time and the company has also satisfied
the relevant control criteria (as set out in the single payment scheme rules) then, provided the directors have not
become aware of any breaches in the cross compliance regulations to which the company is subject, the single
farm payment subsidy income due to the company is recognised on a pro-rata time basis and accrued in the
accounts accordingly.

Directors' pension schemes
None of the company directors have any interest in any money purchase of defined benefit pension schemes
administered by the company. The company did not make any contributions to personal pension schemes held
in the personal names of the directors in either the year under review or the preceding year.
