Bugeting for your shoot - Jamie Horner

Jamie Horner, recipient of a Special Commendation at the 2019 Purdey Awards and game feed specialist at Marsdens, joins Digby and George to discuss something that all shoots, no matter what the size or style, have to think about: budgets and budgeting.

The trio discuss the input costs, including feed, poult and egg prices, rent and more, and how those might shape up for the 2023/24 season. Jamie dispenses wisdom on false economies, the importance of wild bird cover crops and looking after the birds that you have.

He also helps us to rate not one but two beating sounds, and shares the one thing he'd like to change about the shooting sector.
