Why Leave your Farm Income Exposed to Daily Attacks?

Income Volatility is the result of daily attacks from INSIDE and OUTSIDE the farm. We call those “On Farm Factors” and “Market Factors”

Shield Income from the Volatility of On Farm Factors

Fluctuating yields, input costs, equipment spend, isolated weather events, crop mix, soil needs, debt structure, land management, and living requirements are all examples of On Farm Factors.

Protection from Market Drivers

Commodity futures prices, geo-political developments, supply/demand projections, and government interventions are a few MARKET FACTORS that can attack farm income.
