Super Cycle & Post Super Cycle Game Critique – Youth Vs. Experience
Younger Farmers/Ranchers maintain operating margins have stronger asset
turnover ratios preserve working capital have much stronger term
debt coverage ratio post super cycle more off farm income less family living withdrawals
have half as much machinery investment per acre
31
Experienced Farmers/Ranchers term debt to EBITDA
increased dramatically refinance losses and term debt
decrease EBITDA
have much stronger equity position, debt to asset ratio, under 40% represents resiliency
capital expenditures strong, good times
have twice as much machinery investment per acre
