Seymour, IL
As is discussed often in this forum, economies of scale are real
a big driver of individual farms wanting to grow and expand
scale often will result in better marketing and profit opportunities
In business school we often discussed the 80/20 rule....
for a given company, 80% of the revenues (and subsequent profits) come from 20% of the customers
the other 80% supply the remaining 20%
I know which camp I would like to be in, but don't think I will get there in this lifetime.
Farms, distribution and the future?
