Foundations For Success addresses the 3 main sciences and the importance of a consulting team that will allow a farmer to actually start reaching the pinnacle of success.

We all want to wildly succeed—to achieve at the highest caliber. Have you taken the time to envision and write out what the pinnacle of success would look like for your farming operation?

Why do some farms achieve resounding success while most don’t? What is the difference between these two groups? The answer can most often be found, not at the peak, but rather at the bottom—the foundations of success.

What are the foundations for success in farming? Before looking at the core sciences consider a new farmer just starting out. What does he do? First he finds out where he can win i.e. what type of farming suites him. Second he carefully analyzes his strengths so he can use them to his advantage. Next he goes operational, but circumstances change and then he must respond to changing circumstances. This leads to a new form of operations and the cycle repeats itself.

Operations ? Circumstances change ? Respond to Circumstances ? Back to Operations

The weak link in the chain is responding to changing circumstances. This is what separates the top 2% of farmers from everybody else. Agriculture is always in a state of change. Why do so many producers fail to change with the circumstances? I believe it is because most farmers do not integrate the 3 core sciences their whole operation rest on; soil microbiology, soil agronomy, and plant physiology. In addition to this they have not assembled a proper team to guide them through these changing circumstances. This course addresses the 3 main sciences and the importance of a consulting team that will allow a farmer to actually start reaching the pinnacle of success.
