In this episode, I explore the characteristics shared by farm managers whose operations are exceptionally successful, and consistently outperform similar farms in the region.

In my experience as a field consultant and working with AEA's growers, I\u2019ve observed a set of distinctive managerial patterns in the more successful growing operations. These traits bring outstanding results when farmers apply them over time. Listen to this episode for insights on these characteristics, and how they make growers more successful on their operations.

This podcast episode was originally recorded an exclusive webinar and received such fantastic feedback, I wanted to share it with you. Because this was a webinar, the audio quality is a somewhat lower than usual.

The concepts I cover include:

• Focusing personal energy on increasing revenue, while delegating responsibility for decreasing costs to \xa0managers
• Developing an intimate understanding of the agronomic science needed to increase revenue
• Focusing on developing manageable data, measuring, and documenting which techniques work or don't
• Making decisions based on data, particularly economic data
• Having an intuitive heart connection to your crops
