Farm manager responsibilities
Here's a detailed list of farm manager responsibilities you may perform:
Prepare harvesting schedules
Farm managers are responsible for knowing when a harvest season starts and designing a plan in accordance with this to ensure crops flourish and the farm meets its growing requirements. This responsibility involves a variety of important tasks. First, managers often outline their needs by considering a host of factors, including:
Which crops and varieties the farm intends to grow for the season
How many varieties of the same crop the farm plans to produce and determining which ones mature faster
Whether the farm's soil is suitable for harvest
When the optimal time is to stop watering a harvest
Before harvesting, managers also inspect the different divisions of a farm to assess whether any of the crops have insect or weed damage and determine appropriate solutions if they have. During a harvest schedule, a manager might take photos and notes of any damage to prepare more efficient management practices for the following harvest.
