Book Reviews of Pastured Poultry Profits
Book Review: outdated too basic info
Summary: 2 Stars
I have in the past raised tractor chickens & beef and after a slow down in our main income source have decided to do some of this again.
Although this book has some good pointers for the very new farmer, the info for marketing is outdated and written before this writer had any knowlege of the best marketing tool of our time.... the internet.
Frankly, that is what I expected to find here and there was nothing but folksy "sell off the farm marketing", which certainly has its place but is antiquated and the author has a touch of old fashioned farmer arrogance, which is too common in this field and certainly not helpful. I found this for the most part to be too simple, boring and a waste of money.
Summary of Pastured Poultry Profits
A couple working six months per year for 50 hours per week on 20 acres can net $25,000-$30,000 per year with an investment equivalent to the price of one new medium-sized tractor. Seldom has agriculture held out such a plum. In a day when main-line farm experts predict the continued demise of the family farm, the pastured poultry opportunity shines like a beacon in the night, guiding the way to a brighter future.General Books
