Brocket! |H Farm Management Agent Lewistown Extension Office Farming has never been an inexpensive business to get into. It requires a lot of labor, a lot of capital, and today a lot of thinking ability. The success ratio of new farming ventures is not very high. Yet there are people who can succeed, especially if they get a little help. In the next few columns I will discuss some of the factors involved in “Getting Started in a Farm Business”. One of the easiest ways to start in a farm business is to join an existing business. This can be done through the partnership route, through the formation of a cor poration, by developing a type of joint venture, or share cropping. Partnerships are a popular way for a young prospective farmer to join a business. It can be a rewarding experience for all in volved or it can be an economic and social disaster. People con sidering this route should look into a number of things before making a committment. (1) Will the prospective partnership business provide enough income for all parties’ (2) Can the partners and the parners spouses work together? (3) Will the partner’s families be willing to cut back on their standard of living if the business has a bad year? (4) How will the junior or new partner acquire equity in the business? (5) How will profits be divided? (6) Is the junior partner mature enough to accept the responsibility? Corporations can be used in a similar way to a partnership. In addition, they can be used where a person is involved financially but not as part of the business. The same factors should be considered in the formation of a corporation as ATTENTION DAIRYMEN STOP LOSING COWS A LITTLE MONEY NOW FOR GROOVING CAN SAVE LOTS OF MONEY LATER The TMI "EDGE" provides clean, straight grooves in feed alleys, freestalls, holding lots and corners for improved traction, heat detection and drainage and the reduction of broken bones and splitting.

They also cost more to form, require more stringent record keeping, and may cause a higher cok in taxes. However they may save tax dollars and could be more flexible for junior share holders. Joint Ventures or share cropping are also ways to enter an ongoing farm business. There are a number of different ideas for those who may be interested in this method. 1. A herd within a herd or farm within a farm: One person could own 20 cows with another person owning 80 cows. The second person may agree to allow the first person to use facilities, feed and equip ment owned by the second person in trade for labor and/or management from the first person. Income would go to each one from his or her assets. Expenses above those designated would be paid by each party in accordance to the producing units owned. 2. Separate farming operation; Two parties could agree to trade labor, machine use, management skills but maintain completely separate facilities. This one could be useful for starting farmers with little capital but lots of labor. 3. An undivided but separate interest: One party could acquire an interest in another person’s assets in trade for labor or management. 4. Separate operations using a common large capital facility: Example; Two or more parties could build a large farrowing center. Each one would get feeder pigs out of it in relation to his or her own share of the facility. FFA CALL OR WRITE:
