from the Ranching for Profit School |
|
Successful businesses have mission and vision statements. This allows planning and decision making easier for managers and owners. These statements are posted on websites, above the front door, and in the break room to keep reminding us why we are there, and why the customers are there too. The mission is the purpose of the business including customer value, core principles, and owner value. The vision is the plan of how to achieve those three items. These statements are not written in stone, as businesses mature and evolve with time, these statements need to be monitored and adjusted as the world changes around us. Once we know why we are in business, then it is time to discuss profits.
Profit targets are extremely useful planning tools. And let’s get one thing straight, I am not talking about “profiting from an experience,” we are talking about generating value and putting money in the bank. So what is profit? The simple term is revenue minus expense, then profit is the leftovers. At the Ranching for Profit School, we use the terms gross product and costs because there are non-cash transactions that need to be considered too.

Seeking Seasonal Cattle Work
Anywhere
I am looking for seasonal breeder cattle work, predominantly on horseback, and preferably with regenerative land practices. Having a small 2-year basis of knowledge from our northern country and its animals, I couldn't have more of a thirst to thicken my understandings and broaden my skills in stockmanship and horsemanship in your country.
I currently live on a small farm in Mylor, South Australia and am 21 years of age. I spent my first 12 years growing up on our 2,400 acre sheep and cattle farm in the South East of South Australia, where I developed many of the personal attributes I have today.
In 2019 I started my stockman journey through the Queensland Gulf region, working for Paraway Pastoral Company and Australian Agricultural Company. Starting each season late January, we would complete 2 rounds by early October - mustering, processing branding, weaning, cattle maintenance and general station maintenance. With my time spent out here, I have been able to Immerse myself in the regenerative work and teachings of Dr Terry McCosker, as well as Low Stress Stock handling taught by Chook Kealey and Jim Lindsay and my dad Nic Kentish.
