Ontario Farm Management Analysis
Project Cooperators Needed
Each year the ,.Ontario Ministry of
Agriculture and Food conducts a farm
management analysis service for producers
interested in receiving a detailed enterprise
analysis on farm production and financial
data. This analysis project provides an ex-
cellent comparison of costs of production
within the industry and trends developing on
individual farms.
You will receive a 'computerized business
analysis. The information you provide will
be kept confidential. One of the benefits to
you as a cooperator will be the opportunity
for you to monitor your income and ex-
penses, identify strenghts and weaknesses
of your farm business, determine returns on.
investments and the profitability of your
business.
When the provincial report is produced for
the 1986 summaries of various enterprises
you can compare your business figures with
the averages in the report. A copy of the 1985
report is available from O.M.A.F.
We need all types of farm enterprises.
Enterprise analysis is a valuable manage-
ment tool. Please contact Mac, Kate or
Terry at O.M.A.F., Walkerton (881-3301 or
1-800-265-3023) if you are interested in this
analysis. We will assist you in completing
the workbook.
Producers enrolled in the Red Meat and
O.P.I.I.P. Programs are elgible for a $100
grant when your farm records are submit-
ted to the program.

To -Do List
Time can't be managed. Time goes on at a
constant rate. If we can't change the rate in
which it's passing, it's important to plan our
use of time effectively.
Many people prepare `to-do lists', to re-
mind them of things to be done. However,
the `to-do list' can also help you plan your
time efficiently. Here are a few tips for
preparing an effective `to-do list':
1. At the end of each day prepare a 'to-do
list' for your next day's activity. You may
SPECIAL
prepare, the `to-do list' at the beginning of
each day.
2. Prioritize the items on your `to-do list'.
Rate them as A - most important; B - quite
important and C - least important. Note the
urgency of each task. Tasks A & B's and
those that are urgent need your immediate
attention.
3. Include in your `to-do list' things you in-
tend to have others do with a description of
the task and deadline.
4. Be realistic. Schedule work according
to your own personal efficiency, not in the
amount of time you would like it to take or
how long someone else thinks it will take.
Estimate the time needed for each task (e.g.
5-10 minutes, 10-30 minutes or a large chunk
of time) and slot the tasks into your
schedule.
5. Determine whether you work best with
difficult or easy tasks first and schedule
yourself accordingly.
6. Break large tasks into more easily
manageable sub -units. This reduces the
temptation to procrastinate (because you
don't have enough time to complete the pro-
ject).
ro-
ject). It is easier to schedule smaller tasks.
7. Note which tasks reappear on your `to-
do list' day after day. Delegate these or
break them down into smaller units for
handling or simply delete them.
Once your `to-do list' has been prepared,
exert self-discipline and try to stick to it!
There's a saying that families seem to
get together only for marriages and
funerals. We're seeing each other less and
less frequently then, if Statistics Canada's
data on marriage are any indication.
There were only 184,096 marriages in 1985,
a drop of 20 percent from 1972.
