About this episode
Chris Scheid and Pine Hill farmers Ted and Clare Langley discuss insights from the AgRi-Silience program focused on business planning and profitability.
Together with farm business consultant Chris Scheid, Pine Hill farmers - father and daughter team Ted and Clare Langley - share the learnings from their participation in the recent AgRi-Silience program. Kicking off with the 'Now, Where, How' business planning process, profitability, return on assets, key business ratios and goal setting, the program was an excellent opportunity to work on the business and identify challenges and opportunities. The business planning 'roadmap' provides pathways when challenges arise, using risk analysis and actionable strategies for individual businesses. AgRi-Silience is delivered by Livestock SA and jointly funded through the Australian Government's Future Drought Fund and the Government of South Australia.
