Online Extension Resources for Farm Recordkeeping

Producers seeking to strengthen their financial management skills can find online resources developed by the Oklahoma Cooperative Extension Service on the e-Farm Management website.

This site has resources covering financial, production, marketing, and risk management topics.

One example is the video on Farm Recordkeeping Tools. In this video, viewers learn of different tools for keeping track of income, expenses, assets, and liabilities as well as production records.

To find this video and additional resources on farm records, go to: http://agecon.okstate.edu/efarmmanagement/records.asp.
