Farmers make many managerial decisions. Their farm output is strongly influenced by the weather, disease, fluctuations in prices of domestic and foreign farm products, and Federal farm programs. In a crop operation, farmers usually determine the best time to plant seed, apply fertilizer and chemicals, harvest, and market. They use different strategies to protect themselves from unpredictable changes in the markets for agricultural products. Many farmers carefully plan the combination of crops they grow so if the price of one crop drops, they will have sufficient income from another to make up for the loss. Others, particularly operators of smaller farms, may choose to sell their goods directly through farmers' markets, or use cooperatives to reduce their financial risk. For example, Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) is a cooperative where consumers buy shares of a harvest prior to the planting season, thus freeing the farmer from having to bear all the financial risks.

Many substances contain bonds that are intermediate in character—between pure covalent and pure ionic bonds. Such polar bonds occur when one of the elements attracts the shared electrons more strongly than the other element. In hydrogen fluoride, for instance, the shared electrons are so much more attracted by fluorine than hydrogen that the sharing is unequal. (See Figure 1 .)

Bond Debt High In Inside For years, small-scale growers of natural beef, poultry and other hormone-free animal products have had only limited access to markets most coveted by producers - such as grocery stores, restaurants and high-end deli meat cases. Many states and countries require U.S. Department of Agriculture certification before meat can be sold, cooked or displayed, experts say.But because the costs associated with USDA inspections are often high, most small, family run operations - including the Seelys' - long opted out of the federal certification process, instead selling fewer products at farmers' markets and road-side stalls. The result was a loss of market share that only larger meat producers, such as Tyson and Perdue, could fill.

The Seelys' operation was being visited Friday by a group as part of the 13th annual Practical Tools and Solutions for Sustaining Family Farms Conference, being held in Gainesville this weekend.With the help of $150,000 mined from their retirement funds, the Seelys are pouring hope - and their future - into a processing facility they say will improve the way they do business. And if they're successful, the Seelys think their efforts could one day revolutionize the way small livestock farmers in the Southeast operate.Since 2001, the rabbit farming couple has been building up their processing facility in Ocala to handle not only the rabbits they produce, but also the poultry, beef and game meats grown by farmers throughout Florida, Georgia and other Southern states.
