1 Business Planning for the Allocation of Milk Quota to New Entrants
2 The business plan should start with a comment on where the farm is currently, what is planned over the next number of years and how it is anticipated that the investment will be financed. The business plan must be realistic. The financial feasibility of the plan will be one of the main criteria in evaluating the allocation of milk quota under this scheme. Data is included in some of the tables attached for illustration purposes only. The business plan should address the following issues: 1. Audit of current resources 2. Capital expenditure 3. Income and expenditure 4. Stock flow 5. Source and application of funds 2
