1 Farming is grea (1/2)
Farming is great, thought a graduate of the Faculty of History - State University. While Dara was preparing a thesis project, he studied many books on the history of agriculture and cooking. Old recipes from the 18th and 19th centuries.
Finding a job after graduation was an incredibly difficult task. Those jobs that he could find on the Internet on job search sites required at least 5 years of work experience and work experience. He did not have this. And those who did not require this, there the salary was very small. I would hardly have had enough to travel by public transport and a very modest lunch but what about the payment of the apartment? Utility costs, not to mention the purchase of new technology? Take a loan? With such a salary, they will not give him a loan! Yes, and work for pennies, Dara did not want.
Therefore, after graduating from university, Dara decided to become a farmer. The blessing on the local television every day painted a great experience, become a farmer and earn money. Get a bank loan, under your cottage and ... get rich!
A young student at the age of 22 had a lot of energy, enthusiasm, a burning eye and hopes for the future! Having read the business of books how to become an entrepreneur, Dara plunged into a new world of business. He thought he could easily do agribusiness.
Dara had two plots, one in two hectares, he was empty, and next to him, through a small river, the second one - a summer cottage. In the 40 a ( 0.4 hectars) with a two-storey wooden prefab house. This is left from his grandmother's inheritance.
The land was located near the city, 40 km away. The landscape was foothill, the altitude above sea level was a little more than 550 meters, a flowing river flowed alongside it.
The dacha plot was equipped with both drinking and technical water for irrigation.
For water, you had to pay the meter with an advance payment of three months in advance.
Before starting to draw up documents - Dara should have become familiar with the laws on farm management, on entrepreneurship, what taxes he will need to pay. This is not a manga, where the farmer is one-two and starts to sell his products without paying any taxes or fees. This is real life.
Dara was a graduate, but not an agrarian university, but a historical one. Something he knew about agriculture, but not at the level of an agronomist or a full-fledged farmer. No, he just helped his Grandmother, while she was alive, to take care of her garden of 40 acres.
On it, he grew potatoes, tomatoes, cucumbers, pumpkins, watermelons and melons. They handed out a part of the harvest to neighbors and friends, and a part of them were sold on the city market, near the Grandmother's house.
Therefore, Dara, thought that if he took more land, he would be able to get more profit! Youth, thirst for adventure, the realization of their dreams, plans, quickly make money, starting their own business, their business. Activate! Show yourself! Show yourself and people around what it costs!
At the same time, Dara knew the basics of business. As his neighbor, he did not immediately succumb to advertising on TV and did not run to take loans on the security of a summer cottage, buy seeds and start growing potatoes and tomatoes.
Dara decided to first draw up a business plan, learn more about what he would do, how, how much would it cost him, and how much profit would he get? Will he be able to recapture the loan amount and interest on it for one year at once or not for this you need to count and look at everything.
Payment for registration in order to become a private entrepreneur, payment of all taxes for the year ahead, payment of water, fuel and lubricants, depreciation costs, purchase of a mini tractor, the choice of its type, can be worth taking multifunctional, with attached equipment.
