Thinking about hireing a retired man to manage the family farm untill I can retire and do it myself. He will provide labor and expertise. We will provide everything else. I would like to pay him a percentage of gross income. What would be a fair cut for him and us? It is a 365 acre hill/valley farm with 100 acres of pasture and 265 acres of woods. We have a 30 cow/calf operation. We have pretty well sold off all the currently marketable timber. I have been selling about 25 ranks of firewood per year. His job would be to manage and expand the cow/calf operation, gather the hay, market the remaining timber, and mainly clean the place up. He could take over the firewood operation if he wanted. Any experience/advise you have is appreciated. 3 cyl
