My clients are the best to answer this question. I have worked full time with growers for 35 plus years across the UK. Some farms have been clients for all that time.
I have been fortunate to work with a great number of farming families across the UK that have built successful businesses, partly with my help.
The individual business matters, all farms are different. It’s important to identify what people want and can do with the resources they actually have. Grow the business from that point.
Success is very much about care for detail and a willingness to adapt. A bit of experimentation to push the boundaries along the way is always a good thing.
