Recordkeeping
How
can you run a business without keeping records? You need to know what
you sold and what your yields were. This is a business as well as a
farm.

Recordkeeping shouldn’t be a ‘cost without benefit’ or just time
away from core activities. Effective recordkeeping means not only good
records, but useful information that can help in decision making. The
business management side of farming should be an activity that saves
time, increases profitability and margins, informs hiring choices and
helps the farmer work more effectively.
