There is much that farmers do not have control over, and what they do control, they control through people. How these people are hired, managed and motivated makes a huge difference. Labor management is much more than forms and paperwork. It is more about finding creative new ways of increasing productivity and reducing loss. About 40% to 70% of costs in production agriculture are related to labor costs. Thus, it seems that effective management of these costs plays a vital role in the competitiveness of agricultural producers. This page was established in 1996. A sister site with equivalent resources in Spanish is also available to visitors. These sites offers a number of downloadable books, research papers, articles, audio seminars, electronic discussion groups, bulletin boards, and other resources to farm employers, academia, consultants, and the press.
