Too many farmers push themselves to always keep growing simply because they think it’s what they “should” do.
Do you agree?
There are benefits to growing your team and scaling your farm (and we’ll talk more about that in a minute.)...
If you ask me, it’s an absolute waste of time…
…to try and manage things you can’t control.
No matter how hard you work, you’ll never be able to control the weather, your family’s actions, or interest rates at the bank. So I’d rather help you focus...
When most farmers make decisions, they wing it.
They don’t have any tools or systems to help them decide whether something is a good financial decision or a bad one.
