I was fortunate enough to receive this book a few days ago as a Christmas gift. I read it cover to cover and really enjoyed it! I appreciated many aspects of the book: the clear writing style, the clean lines of thought, the unique application of lean concepts, the colorful photos, and the intriguing references to other seminal lean books. Since lean is very contextual when it comes to implementation, I was delighted to find much detail on precisely how lean was applied at Clay Bottom Farm. Ben effectively describes both the overarching strategies and the specific tactics that were applied over the years. These will help spark lean deployment ideas at other farms for sure.I started to get a bit concerned when the discussion of cost cutting surfaced since lean is NOT another management driven cost cutting program. But Ben effectively addressed my concerns by adding his thoughts on this in "Lean Overreached" and "Lean for More Than Profit." I have seen lean reduced to just cost cutting which resulted in bad, long-term business consequences. As Ben explains, lean is a complete culture change where "respect for people" is paramount and where daily and long-term continuous improvement is knitted into the very fabric of the organization.Excellent book. Way to go Ben and team!(By the way, this is my first book review ever.)
Many would be farmers start off with more of a philosophy than a business plan. Very few folks have the resources to operate a farm full time without the farm turning a profit. If you aren't careful, a small operation will work you to death. This excellent little book takes a total quality approach to farming while minimizing wasted resources; the most important savings (as far as I am concerned) is labor. If your operation is working you from daylight to dark and you are making less than minimum wage, this book is just what you need to get on track! Even if you are a successful farmer, I'll bet this book contains a few tips and tricks that can help you streamline your operation without hurting your bottom line.
As a small organic vegetable farmer I have always found the task of efficiently organizing the business operations of the farm somewhat confounding. Many times I have been frustrated with working long hours into the evening, an employee who did not finish a task the way I asked, or growing a beautiful crop that no one wants to buy. The Lean Farm concisely introduces farmers to a valuable tool for streamlining farming operations and focusing your business on producing what is valuable to your customers. Lean manufacturing is a tool used by gigantic corporations to compete in the global marketplace, so I was wary of its applicability to a small farm context. However, the author makes a strong case for utilizing lean in farming or other small business settings. He even discusses many of the caveats that would naturally occur to a small farmer trying to adopt lean, such as letting your values influence how you implement the concept so that you achieve greater sustainability as well as profitability.The Lean Farm is a great read and well worth adding to your farming library. It will probably be most helpful to farmers or other small business people with at least a few years' experience who are struggling to make it all come together. Although it has many interesting glimpses into the author's farming practices, this book does not attempt to be an introduction to farming. If you are reading it as a beginning farmer, The Lean Farm should be one of many texts you read, though it may end up being the most valuable to the success of your business. I also think this book would also serve as a good introduction to the concept of lean for someone outside of the farming profession. The author provides some of the history and context of lean manufacturing including original Japanese terminology, as well as discussion of other prominent lean texts and guidance for further reading on the subject.
Excellent book. I find that it has changed the way I perceive the world - not just my farm. I find myself analyzing so many processes - not just farm chores. I come from a software development background, and I have the urge to send this book to some of my old managers. I quote it often.This book would help anyone, including homesteaders in any business or repetitive project, in my opinion.
After working under a lean style in mining I never thought of applying it to my new endeavour.A well written, easy reference book, with plenty of examples, the lean farm is a fun ride to a better life.Do more with less, use what you need, get rid of the burden of gadgets and earn more while saving are just some of the ideas in this book. Worth twice the money on the first read and I tag it covert to cover twice in three days.
Overall I thought it was a good book, what I felt stopped it from being a 5 star review, is I didn't feel it was great throughout the entire book. The information on the 5S highly valuable, the case studies were good, though I would have like to have seen more on farm examples of perhaps other market farms instead of dairy farm from Denmark. Also the last part chapter 12 - on mega farms, is kinda like preaching to the choir. You figure most folks who get this book are typically going to be either market farmers, or small animal producers.I'd say it was worth the money, there were valuable examples that we'll put into use on our farm.
Great book that will make you think about your processes. I made quite a few planning changes on the farm while I was reading this. It makes you think about wasted motions in all your work.
Hartman takes us on a tour of Toyota's LEAN production methodology, and the ways he has applied it to his farm. As many other reviewers have noted, this is a great introduction to LEAN methods, and an awesome view of the application of those methods in a small business.
