Justin Crownover from Texas
Crownover on business growth: “I encourage people to be careful on how fast to grow. Pay attention to your wife and your kids. Don’t get too caught up in how fast you grow.”
Chris Adams from North Dakota
Adams on his definition of success: “To be able to pass the farm onto a successor in a better form than it was before I had it. My excitement in the farm isn’t the balance sheet at all. It’s being able to pass it down.”
Luke Brubaker from Pennsylvania
Brubaker on learning from peers: “We try and learn from smarter people than us, and we like to be open on our farm. We want other people to see if there is anything we are doing others could try.”
Chris Barron from Iowa
Barron on decision making: “When making business or grain marketing decisions, know yourself and manage the emotions. Let the numbers do the talking.”
Rob Barley from Pennsylvania
Barley on financial analysis: “With our managerial accounting approach, every bill is allocated not only to the right entity, but also the right category within the entity. It’s much easier to understand what’s working and what is now working.”
