FARM MANAGEMENT : IT PAYS TO PLAN.
I always say farming is a business not just a way of life, this mindset should be swiftly transformed.
FARMING IS LIKE ANY BUSINESS: You need to know where you are, where you want to be and how you are going to get there. Few farmers enjoy the planning and administrative requirements of running a farm, but a formal plan for running the farming business is essential.
BUSINESS PLAN A farm business plan can help you identify your priorities and determine a timetable for achieving your goals. A lot of information needs to go into the plan: • What are you going to grow? • How are you going to grow it? • How are you going to finance it? • How are you going to market it? • Who is responsible for what? • How does all of this fit within the framework of your business?
It will take some time and quite possibly a few revisions, before you have a workable plan.
A FEW TIPS TO GET STARTED: Everyone has input. You may not agree on every point but each person with a stake in you operation should have some say on the plan. This is especially important in a family business where emotions can come into play.
WRITE IT DOWN: Getting things down on paper will help you avoid misunderstanding and identify areas in the plan that need a little more work. It also makes the plan more “official” and more likely that you will stick to it.
MEASURABLE BUSINESS GOALS: Be specific, and when you do not accomplish what you set out to do, figure out where why and correct your plans for the next season.
REVISIT YOUR PLANS: Keep an eye on your progress throughout the season and make adjustments as needed. Think about the future. No business plan is complete without some thought about where you want to be not only at the end of the season, but also at the end of next season, five seasons and ten seasons from now. If you don’t already have a formal planning process, start now. You still might not enjoy meetings, but the positive results on your business will make the whole process worthwhile.
