My farming partner and I have been arguing about whether to switch to organic certification for months now and we keep having the same circular conversation where I talk about long-term soil health and market premiums while he focuses on the transition costs and yield risks. We both know this decision will define the next decade of our operation but we're stuck in our positions and I'm starting to wonder if we want fundamentally different things from this farm.
More people experience this than they realize.
You and your partner may want completely different futures for the farm, and this choice will decide it.
