	Each farming business is unique, with distinctive characteristics, biographics, opportunities, strengths and successes.  Each creates its own competitive advantage for sustainability and finds its own path of development.  This book offers the farmer/management team or short course presenter a guideline to devise a strategic plan for any farming business in the world.  It also provides practical management tools to timely identify opportunities and threats. Rob Napier & Wim Nell at the 15th International Farm Management Congress in Brazil, August 2005
