Description
Cambridge University Press The Farming Game Now by John Patrick Makeham and L R Malcolm
This is the only applied textbook on farm management specifically designed for Australian agricultural students and farmers. The book confronts the complexities of farming in the 1990s, as farm businesses are forced to adapt to technological changes and manage financial pressures. It takes a highly practical approach by introducing a management problem and then outlining analytical techniques to assist in solving it. The book contains a large number of useful diagrams and tables and the authors suggest additional readings which will be useful for students. In its teaching of farm management, this book manages to strike a balance between modern farming technology, economics, finance, and most importantly, the human factor.show more
