Why the ffsc?
The Farm Financial Standards Council provided me with a valuable resource for the proper presentation of agriculture producer financial statements that I could not find in any of the standard CPA research services. My membership in the Council has given me the opportunity to connect and exchange ideas with some of the brightest agriculture business, academic and credit leaders in the country.

As farm operations become more complex the owners and managers need accurate financial statements to help them to make sound business decisions. The Standards set by the Council provide a roadmap for producing high quality financial information for managing your farm business, keeping your bankers happy, and benchmarking your farm’s results.“

Working with producers in educational farm business management I observed the impacts of the Council in standardized terminology, statement formats, and tools for analysis – across lenders and education. Since joining FFSC I find direct participation keeps my professional efforts on track, and the standards set a goal in working with producers and their financial partners.
