| File Information | Research shows that the best farm employee can consistently be four to eight times better than the worst. Farm personnel are certainly not a constant. Whatever control over production you have at your farm, it is achieved through people, whether they are in production, supervisory, administrative, or management positions. How these individuals are selected and managed makes all the difference. |
