Farm Management in Tough Financial Times
Author: Jonathan Shepherd
Planning Unit: Agr Economics
Major Program: Farm Management
Outcome: Initial Outcome
Worked with a farm family that was suffering significant farm financial stress given current farm economics. It was determined that pivoting from the current business model was needed to ensure economic viability. I worked with the farm family to help them develop a new business plan and a 3 year transition plan. We are in year 1 of the transition and things are going to plan.
