Crop Planning for Organic Vegetable Growers Webinar - Part 2 of 2
TO REGISTER: www.cog.ca/shop
Description: This webinar provides a much-needed structure for figuring out how to make money on a market garden. It hones in on the core issues of farm success: which crops to grow, when to plant them, and in what quantities. Then it provides a logical, linear process for getting it all done, on time. It sets out 11 steps, including:
* Decide how much money you need to make;
* Calculate how much of each veggie you have to sell to meet your financial goals;
* Decide where you will sell;
* Make field planting schedules to ensure you have the crops you need at the right time;
* Generate greenhouse/seedstarting schedules;
* Fill out a seed order;
* Make a field operations calendar;
* Analyze profitability and refine your plans for next year.
