Crops, People, Money and You (The Art of Excellent Farming and Better Returns) Dr Kate Burke

Available in three different formats. The physical hardcopy of the book, an electronic e-book version and Audiobook for listening only.

The world is a bit crazy right now, but despite uncertainty and a volatile climate, there is a way to farm that generates profit, builds a legacy and involves less stress. The Art of Excellent Farming starts with making first-rate choices about yourself so that you can make the best decisions about crops, people and money.

Your personal power is the key – and it‘s far stronger than unpredictable weather or markets.
