The top 25 is only 5 better
Yea, that’s right, the top 25% of farmers are, on the average, only 5% better than the rest of the crowd.
Think about that for a minute. What does that mean? Well, it means that being consistent is everything. It means that being or doing good in a bad year makes all the difference in the world. It means that the last 25% are so far behind…. well lets just say that they are in trouble. It means that this business of farming is a lot of up and down turns.
It also means that the margins are slim at the top…………..no matter what the size.
