CC428

Deaver Farms is a family partnership farming operation with cropping and hog finishing enterprises, and a small number of cattle. . .

This case study of a fictitious family illustrates how to create a diversified farm business plan. Based on the background and records of this family, you will see how to:

create an operation layout;
write a mission statement;
identify business goals;
specify short-term and long-term goals;
set priorities and goals;
express the purpose of the plan;
explain the strategic outlook;
collect legal and contractual information;
explain the production and financial situation; and
form a marketing plan;
plus more.

The 18-page, spiral bound publication is three-hole punched and can fit into a notebook. Keep it alongside your own records and refer to it as you create your own business plan.
