Project Overview

Regular one-on-one instruction and some online workshop activities grew the participants' base of knowledge in financial and production record keeping and year-end whole farm and enterprise analysis, including benchmarking and strategic planning and reduced financial and production risk and areas of human risk, including mental and physical well-being and family and business communication and relationships. 

Individualized training included 1) developing a full fiscal year's monthly financial record keeping, account reconciliation, and production record keeping, including livestock grazing activities, 2) preparing financial and production records and thorough accounting of all current, intermediate, and long-term assets and liabilities in preparation to complete a whole farm and enterprise analysis, and 3) benchmarking for strategic business planning, including marketing.
