Have you ever wondered what HR processes you should be incorporating on your farm? If so, today’s episode is for you.

In this episode, Tracy and Dick discuss:

• We discuss the importance of farm business management processes including some of the most important HR practices that farms should be following.
• When is the time to implement HR practices on your farm? Is this for “small” family farms with just a few family members farming, or is this only for large operations?
• We discuss implementing culture and how things such as core values can help align individuals on your farming operation.
• They discuss some of the core HR areas, including; job contracts, hiring family, firing family, wage reviews, and how to handle returning family members with a family participation policy.
