| Abstract: | This book is a practical guide to improving farm management, with emphasis on the core skills and techniques of making decisions. The book is divided into six parts. The three main sections cover observation, anticipation and risk management (Parts 1, 2 and 3, respectively). The main sections are rounded off with a concluding section (Part 4), which contains information on what creates high managerial ability. Part 5 deals with the assessment of a farmer's management profile, while Part 6 contains self testing material that provides the reader with 'food for thought' over all the management skills that are likely to be used by a farmer. |
