Season 2 Countdown – 4th Place – Part #2 – Overcoming Fear to Make Better Decisions

In celebration of The Impact Farming Show's 2nd Anniversary, we are counting down and rebroadcasting the TOP 4 episodes from season two. This week we are excited to bring you the 4th highest listened to and watched episode, which was "Grain Marketing in Uncertain Times" w/Dave Reimann.  This 3 part episode was originally aired on March 18, 2019.  This was only a few days after WHO (World Health Organization) declared COVID-19 as a World-wide pandemic.  Shortly after this episode aired, the world went into lock-down and uncertain times lay ahead. Part #2 – Overcoming Fear to Make Better Decisions Here is what you'll learn in this segment: How are you marketing grain on your farming operation? Tracy and Dave review how the majority of farmers are currently selling their grain. Tracy asks, are they proactively selling or just picking up the phone the day they need to sell grain in order to free up bin space or to generate revenue to pay upcoming bills? His answer may or may not surprise you. With increasingly narrowing margins, learning how to market your grain should no longer be an optional activity on your farm. The growers with the sharpest pencils, and highest crop revenues, all have a strong grain marketing plan in place at all times. They discuss some of the physical and mental hurdles that farmers deal with when it comes to making the decision to proactively market their grain. Don't forget to watch part 1 - "Grain Marketing in Uncertain Times and #3 - "The Power of an Advisor".
