Abstract

The purpose of this publication is to provide astute cattlemen with some suggested Critical Success Factors (CSF) that should help ensure financial survival of a beef farm or ranch in the 1990's. Once the CSF's are identified, Integrated Resource Management (IRM) teams can turn their integration efforts toward designing a comprehensive on-farm Integrated Resource Management Information Systems that routinely monitor these Critical Success Factors for individual beef farms and ranchers.
