Decisions regarding what to plant, how much to rent acreage for, whether to buy or lease equipment and the like are almost always the most difficult decisions for a farmer/rancher to make. To help make those decisions just a little bit easier, a web site has been created with downloadable software that producers can manipulate to input numbers that are unique to their operation.
There are too many spreadsheets to mention them all, but basically they fall under the categories of: Financial Management and Analysis; Machinery Management; Crop Production, Finance, and Marketing; Livestock and Forage Production, Finance, and Economics; Marketing; and Enterprise Crop Budgets.
All of the programs are free to download and use. To find them, visit http://www.montana.edu/softwaredownloads/
Recognition should be given to Duane Griffith, Extension Economic specialist, and the many other contributors for creation of the workable documents and web site.
