" Your assistance in the litigation was professional, authoritative, timely, and valuable. Thanks for your efforts." -- Richard Schenck, Attorney at Law Success Story: I had a client who purchased a rough crop farm with some pasture that showed signs of neglect. By using four different types of CRP programs and selecting the right custom farmer, we were able to regenerate the pasture, provide excellent wildlife habitat, and manage the farm to show a 10%-12% cash return to the owner based on his purchase price. On another farm, I had a new client that had just acquired a large farm that was mostly in permanent pasture due to soil and topography limitations. The pasture had an intensive grazing system in place that was not being utilized to its potential. Weed control and fertility appeared to be marginal not only in the pasture, but also in the cropland that had a poor production record. By making some significant management changes, such as choosing a new operator, with a cow-calf operation background, who understood how to manage grazing, implementing a new soil testing/fertility and weed control programs, converting some land use from cropland to pasture, allowing us to graze pasture other areas of the farm that were previously idle wasteland, we were, in three years, able to double the annual net income generated by the farm, while enhancing its value.
