Making a difference
Success stories and impact reports
To succeed in today’s agricultural and economic climate, farmers need to evaluate the financial health of their farm businesses, to use strategic planning concepts in making financial management decisions, and to think strategically about their future.
 AgVentures – Building a Vision
In today’s changing farm environment, producers are required to take on more of a managerial role on their farms. For many producers, working with employees, whether they are family or non-family, is a challenging experience.
Assessing the managerial capacity of dairy farm owners and operators
The price of milk has become more variable in the past several years. Not knowing the price one will receive for one's product will make the dairy business a risky business. Dairy farmers need a way to manage price risk and create a more predictable income.
