EC94-852 Cash Flow Planning Form

This extension circular covers the following areas of a cash flow planning form: Beginning Cash Balance, Operating Sales (crop and hay, market livestock, livestock product, custom work); Capital Sales (breeding livestock, machinery and equipment); Personal Income (wages, interest); Operating Expenses (car/truck, chemicals, conservation, custom hire, feed purchased, fertilizers and lime, freight and trucking, gasoline, fuel and oil, insurance, labor hired, rents and leases, repairs and maintenance, seeds and plants, storage, warehousing, supplies, taxes, utilities, veterinary, breeding fees and medicine, feeder livestock); Capital Purchases (breeding livestock, machinery and equipment, family living withdrawals, personal investments, income and social security, term loan payments); Net Cash Available (operating loan borrowings, operating loan payments); and Ending Operating Loan Balance. Along with the Cash Flow Planning Form is a Projected Income Statement Form which covers Projected Business Income (operating sales, breeding livestock, estimated cash income adjustments, estimated gross revenues, estimated value of production); Project Business Expenses (cash operating, esimated operating, prepaid and supplies, cash investment in growing crops, accounts payable); Projected Net Income Summary (estimated net income from operations, estimated net business income, estimated net income after taxes, estimated earned net worth change); and a Physical Inventory Flows Worksheet

Feasibility of Growing and Feeding High Oil Corn to Pigs

A feasibility analysis on the growing and feeding of high-oil corn (HOC) to pigs was conducted. The cost to produce HOC is about 25 to 32 cents per bushel higher than for normal corn (NC), primarily due to 7 to 10 percent yield reduction for HOC. Diets made with HOC contain between 1.5 and 3 percent additional fat. Therefore, feed efficiency should be improved, on average, by 3 to 6 percent when HOC is substituted for NC. In most cases, daily gain should improve by 0 to 3 percent with HOC in the diet. High-oil corn grown in central Nebraska during 1997 averaged 6.2 percent oil (12 percent moisture). When HOC (6.2 percent oil) is used to replace NC in growing-finishing pig diets, it is worth 21 to 25 cents more than NC, assuming NC and 44 percent protein soybean meal cost $2.50 per bushel and$250 per ton, respectively. When NC and soybean meal cost $2 per bushel and$200 per ton, HOC is worth 17 to 20 cents more than NC. If HOC is used to replace animal or vegetable fat in pig diets, it is worth about 40 cents per bushel more than NC, if supplemental fat costs 20 cents per pound. The only economic benefit given to HOC was an increase in feed efficiency. These results suggest no current economic incentive for producers to grow and feed HOC

Cash - Where it Comes from, Where it Goes

The Statement of Cash Flows is an important financial statement for the farm or ranch business manager. While an accrual income statement explains the difference in net worth from one balance sheet to the next, the statement of cash flows explains the difference in cash and cash equivalents from one balance sheet to the next

Some Thoughts - Farm Business Management - Fall 1998

Crop and livestock prices have been universally low for Nebraska farmers and ranchers in the last few months. There have been conversations about whether the current conditions constitute a crisis, and how it is different from the farm financial crisis of the 1980\u27s. Regardless of the differences or similarities with the 80\u27s, many farm and ranch families are facing drastic reductions in income. There are, of course, exceptions. In view of the current situation which most families are facing, I was recently asked to speak on the topic of “Strategies for Dealing with Low Prices.” Following is a brief summary of the suggestions that I presented
