Many of you are probably seeding, or almost done by now. Some of these crops may be used for green feed or swath grazing this fall or maybe part of your mixed operation. Many of you already have a plan for what you are going to do with these crops but do you have a whole farm plan?
What do I mean by this? Well I think everyone should have a farm plan set out at the beginning of the year. This would include items such as feed management, time management Cheap Derek Grant Jersey , money management, breeding management and much more.
These plans include what will you grow, how much will you feed, how will you feed it Cheap Bryan Rust Jersey , when will you start feeding, what will you use for bedding, who will help during busy seasons, when will you put the bulls out Cheap Justin Schultz Jersey , when will you wean and sell calves etc. As you can see there are a lot of decisions for you to make on your farm. If we leave these decisions until last minute we may not make the best decision.
This does not mean these plans are set in stone but it gives us a good guideline to follow to help us make the best decision. We all know how good our decision making abilities are when we are busy, stressed or upset.
Having a plan also allows us to plan for shortfalls. This can be in cash flow, feed or labor. By knowing in advance we can plan for this. If there is going to be a shortage of feed it will allow you the opportunity to plant more, purchase or rent more land Cheap Olli Maatta Jersey , purchase feed or sell some cows. By knowing in advance you can save money by being able to shop around for more feed options or sell cattle at a more optimal time. Not knowing can cause stress and more money because it limits your options.
I also want to go back to money management at this time. I seem to talk about this a lot but that's because it is very important, you need a money plan, specifically a cash flow statement. You need to know when you have money going out and that you have enough money coming in to cover those expenses. This will help make your life a lot less stressful.
I hope everyone will take some time and work on their farm plans. This will definitely save you a lot of time and stress in the future.

To start your own business used to require a good amount of money. If you didn't have money you would be required to borrow a massive loan which would require you to have a good credit rating. Today however things have changed due to the internet. You can start your own home based business with no money at all. Here's a few proven home based business ideas to get you going.
Home Based Business Idea #1:
Sign up with affiliate programs and learn how to best market them. These affiliate programs give you all the training and tools you need to succeed and many are free to join. Having your own website helps the conversion rate of your traffic but is not required. Some people promote all the programs from a free blog they sign up for.
Affiliate companies pay out commissions for referrals andor sales you can bring them. It is difficult to make money from these programs right away but after a couple of months of building traffic it will really start to pick up.
Home Based Business Idea #2:
Sign up to take surveys Cheap Mario Lemieux Jersey , read emails, play games, and complete offers. There are some online companies that will pay you to do all of the following. It will be hard to earn a living from the pay you get from these companies but it can definitely help with some of your monthly bills.
The best way to make them work for you is to enroll in two or more of these programs. Most will pay about one dollar per survey and pennies for answering emails. All the small things you do with these programs can add up to somewhere between $30 - $100 a month.
Home Based Business Idea #3:
Find a niche that has a good amount of aggressive customers and low competition. By defining yourself and your website as an authority in a specific niche, you can really make a comfortable living with internet marketing.
There are untapped niches that people are just starving for information from the internet. It will be simple for you to provide and sell information to people in certain niches that as of now cannot find the information they are looking for.
