I was chatting to a farmer on the weekend, and he said one of his unavoidable (and substantial) fixed costs is public liability insurance. He said you just can't exist without this insurance, because if anyone (even a trespasser) comes on to your land and hurts him/herself you will be liable - and you could lose your farm.
What's the go here? Can you do without insurance of any kind? Or is this kind of insurance pretty much mandatory for land owners?
