Brian Houin, Homestead Dairy, Indiana
Dairy Dashboard Reports are an important tool to keep our lender in the loop month to month. Everyone understands how things are going by providing them with timely information on income, budgets, milk price analysis, and costs compared to other farms. We have been trying to do a budget for years. The Dairy Dashboard has helped us fine-tune a budget and compare it to our actual performance while helping us nail down our break-even point. The reports help us create a plan for moving forward." |

Kris and Sutton Ruck, Milking R., Inc., Okeechobee, Florida
Valuable information pays for itself. We wish more of our local friends would utilize the Dairy Dashboard so they could see as clearly as we can where the business stands. Our lender and tax accountant love the reports because they are easy to read and helpful when making financing decisions. Today, with fewer lenders understanding dairy farms and their financing needs, the monthly Dairy Dashboard reports take the pressure off us and provide the information the lenders require." |
Julie Patterson, Patterson Farms Inc., Finger Lakes, New YorkDehm Associates is always very attentive to our needs, especially when times are stressful and uncertain. Dairy Dashboard® keeps us thinking forward, using past numbers to make good decisions for the future. Having our numbers to look at as one whole business has helped us see where we can make changes to be more efficient and profitable." |
Industry Feedback
Danny Klinefelter, Texas A&M UniversityDairy Dashboard® benchmarks and reports are exactly the kind of product Tom Frey and I hoped would evolve out of the Coordinated Financial Statements for Agriculture and even wrote a book about. In today's environment there is no way an agriculture producer can be an effective manager without accurate financial information." |

Everett Nifong, VP Commercial Banking at Lake City Bank, Warsaw, Indiana
The Dairy Dashboard reports and monthly conference calls have been very beneficial to the bank in maintaining current information on my client's cash flow status. With milk prices being low over the past few years, this information is vital to the bank to make necessary adjustments as needed to work with our client." |
