There are opportunities in livestock development, and a solid plan will pay dividends. Ty Eschenbaum with A-1 Development Solutions said the first key to success is to define your goals. “If you’ve already taken your current resources into account and defined your goals, that naturally leads you towards an inclination.” The next step is to do the proper research. “We often see people jump into the research phase without communicating with everyone else what the prior steps were.” It is also recommended that producers take inventory and evaluate site selection when developing a livestock operation plan. Eschenbaum spoke during the North Dakota Livestock Alliance’s Winter Webinar Series. View the webinar here.
