You are working with management and the farm owner to plan the establishment of a new farm, or an extension to your current farm. To do this, you need to participate in planning for the financial and operational management of the new farm.
To run your farm effectively, you need to understand the inner workings of the business. You need to work with management to manage the ongoing planning of operations and financial management for your farm, including all production activities and financial operations.
To manage the business operations and production activities on the farm effectively, you need to know exactly what is going on, and for that, you need to gather weekly and daily production data, and create reports for other management personnel.
Once you have gathered data on operations, you may need to take action to improve production practices and performance in areas where they are lacking or not meeting targets.
To ensure the business is successful, the farm must produce high-quality fruit consistently. To ensure this, you must continuously monitor the quality of your fruit, and, if necessary, take actions to improve it, all while ensuring that the food is safe for customers.
To sell your fruit and make money, there are multiple accreditation systems and requirements to be able to export it. You need to ensure that you are compliant with these systems and requirements.
To sell your fruit, you need to be able to attract customers, through good branding, advertising, and market research. You need to work with other managers to create and implement a marketing strategy for your fruit.
Your fruit needs to travel long distances, often across oceans, via multiple forms of transportation, to get from your farm to the customer. To ensure that this happens smoothly, you need to work with management to plan and coordinate these logistics.
