Welcome to the first episode of the Seeding Series, a short-form series focused on the challenges and opportunities that show up throughout the farming season.

In this episode, Tracy Schira-Parker discusses the value of having a written production plan and why it should be more than something stored in your memory.

A production plan isn't about creating complicated systems or expensive spreadsheets. It's about making sure the right information is documented, communicated, and accessible when it's needed most.

This episode explores:

• Why production plans reduce risk on the farm • The importance of documenting key field activities • How written plans improve communication with family and employees • The role documentation plays in insurance and farm management • Reducing the mental load carried by farmers • Preparing for unexpected illness, injury, or emergencies • Why proactive record-keeping pays off at the end of the season

A practical discussion about protecting your operation, improving communication, and setting your farm up for success before problems arise.
