E33: In The Age of Big Data, Focus on Your Farm's "Small" Data Aug 05, 2020

Show notes

In this episode, Nick discusses his thoughts on how/why you should build a culture of experimentation in your farm. He discusses a six-step framework for tracking agronomic experiences and a seven-step framework for tracking grain marketing/risk management decisions.

Tracking these tests/decisions in a structured format can reduce the impact of the biases that often impact the learning of on-farm trials.

Show notes

It's likely that you've heard of Bernie Madoff and his $65 billion dollar Ponzi scheme.

It's less likely that you know why July 1st is one hell of a day of the year for retired Major League Baseball player Bobby Bonilla. He gets his annual payment of $1.19 million from the New York Mets today.

That's what we discuss in today's podcast and the applicable farm management lessons.

E30: No Regrets Grain Marketing Jul 13, 2020

Show notes

In this podcast, Nick talks about the impact regret has on grain marketing decisions.

This topic was inspired by this blog post by grain merchandiser Cullen Wilson: https://www.harvestprofit.com/blog/no-regret-crop-marketing

Cullen understands that making grain marketing decisions is much easier said than done. The concept of a "shrinking pie" when it's related to grain marketing decisions is especially powerful.

Enjoy the episode and we'll be increasing the frequency of our podcasts in the coming weeks!
