Re: What to do with 3 Acres of land?

I have a small amount of land near my home in Scotland - about 3
acres. For the last few years a local farmer has paid me a small, but
useful, amount to keep sheep/cattle on this land. He is retiring this
year and I was wondering what to do with the land now.

I would like to make some money from it, but am more interested in
keeping it in a reasonable state.

I have wondered if it is worth planting trees - can I get a subsidy
for this?

I don't really want to use it for horses, even though I believe this
is the best way to make money!

Any ideas?

north south east or west?
soil type
climate
proximity to urban population

would be useful to give folks some ideas
