Stonyfield Farms: Overview

Willie A. Mason will build a house NY Sengphet farm in Mason Tennessee. All livestock is property of Willie A. Mason. In case of NY Sengphet death Willie A. Mason is to live in the house until he can’t take care of himself. If Willie A. Mason dies first everything to stay with NY Sengphet.

All across america, cows are confined to crowded, almost prison-like cells, with little to no regard to their health. They are forced to eat food that includes such ingredients like manure, cement, or even cow brains. This is one side of farming, but there is another. This farming has cows and other animals living how they would in nature, across rolling hills and bright green grasses. This is the essence of Local Sustainable farming. As defined in Michael Pollan’s award-winning commentary about the food we eat, The Omnivore’s Dilemma, the Local Sustainable Food Chain, one of four possible food chains, is characterized by not using pesticides, treating animals humanely, and sustainably creating healthier organic food. Out of Michael Pollan’s food chains, the Local Sustainable Food Chain is the best for America as it is much less harmful to the environment and lets animals live in their natural states.

Lots of energy is wasted in factory farming. When farming with animals, companies have to feed the cattle and livestock. The energy put into feeding the cows is often wasted, because energy is lost when the cow is killed. “Converting grain into meat entails a large loss of food energy, particularly if cattle are doing the converting. Conservatives estimates are that cattle require 7 kg of grain to create 1 kg of beef,” (Horrigan, Lawrence, Walker 448). If fewer cows were being killed for food consumption, less energy would be wasted. For every 100kg of beef made, 700kg are grain are needed to feed the animal. The ratio that every one kg of beef requires seven times the amount of energy to produce it is wasteful when the outcome is so small. The outcome does not outweigh the negatives consequences that come with food production.

The shareholder value or financial perspective includes strategic objectives in areas such as market share, revenues and costs, profitability, and

As an alternative to the industrial food chain which is now prevail in the US, the organic food chain emphasis that “nature rather than the machine should supply the proper model for agriculture” (Pollan 131). The idea of “organic” is best demonstrated by farms that raise diversified species in a traditional way and target at the local market. However, most of the “organic food” people consume today is produced from the “industrial organic” farms which belong to the industrial food chain instead of the ideal organic food

The observations of the subjects in the following paper were conducted on Saturday, October 17th 2015 at Denver Downs Farm in Anderson, South Carolina. Denver Downs was hosting a fall event that included hayrides, sports, games, a corn maze, and many other activities. This event drew in many people of all ages, genders, and ethnicities. There was also a Clemson University football game the following day, drawing in many more people to the area that weekend. The observations took place from three to six at night when it was approximately sixty-eight degrees Fahrenheit outside. This allowed ample time to make significant observations and a comfortable temperature where subjects would remain for long periods of time. This time frame was

Now, I would like to discuss the benefits that our organic-based business will offer to our target customers. First, as far as the functional benefits are concerned, one of the key factors is that organic produce offers the consumer a healthier option when it comes to one’s eating habits. In regards to chemicals, organic produce refrains from using any kind of synthetic pesticides, fertilizers, fungicides, herbicides or synthetic preservatives and additives. As such, the amounts of hazardous residues within organic foods are basically restricted to the lowest amount (“Organic”, n.d.).

Several internal factors can influence the valuation of a company, however, in the subsequent are some factors that will assist management in protecting its shareholders. The first reason is the desire to generate profits for the company, as a profitable firm will attract investors. Secondly, the need to improve the management of a company can lead to valuation as the information can be used to spur growth. Valuation will assist in understanding some of the factors affecting the value of the company such as client relationships, financials, image, technology employees, and marketing. Proper management is implemented after identifying the issues affecting the organization’s value. Thirdly, communicating to the public accurate and current information is essential in attracting investors and maintaining transparency, which builds the company image.

Between conveyance, synthetic fertilizers/pesticides, and the incredible amount of energy it takes to run Concentrated Animal

The politics of Trump soothe my soul to a heart's delight opposed to the liberal garbage spewed by San Bernardino City Hall. The closing of the Central City Hall, sardine packed Waterman Gardens sustainable development Agenda 21, the intrusions of open space known as Arrowhead Farms are a few despicable projects. Furthermore; the outsourcing of fire and the disbanding of various departments paying consultants and lawyers lining silk suits and Rolex watches. San Bernardino infiltrated with homelessness enabling poverty and mushroom pot shops has no end as a revolving door.  The battle of ideas between San Bernardino and I has no chance to reconcile, and instead of improving the city is on a collision course inviting more of the same.

The organics industry for cosmetics is a relatively unexplored sector. This leaves room for more diversification for its targeted consumers

The cattle industry produces vast amounts of strain in the environment. It is energy inefficient, pollutes water, occupies many acres of land, and deteriorates the health of the people who abuse its consumption. The government subsidizes this industry. Therefore, the price paid for meat doesn’t reflect the environmental hazards involved in the process. In order to protect our health and the health of the environment we should pay close attention to our food choices and make sure we don’t support industries that degrade it.

The dividends that stockholders receive and the value of their stock shares depend on the business’s profit performance. Managers’ jobs depend on living up to the business’s profit goals.

When it comes to factory farming it may be cheaper, but sustainable farming practices have their advantages. When it comes to our society it can make communities proud of where their food comes from and be healthier for the local community. “Pasture-based agriculture has the potential to enhance social sustainability as well, providing an alternative to large confined animal feeding operations (CAFOs)—which have been the focus of many community disputes and have been associated with health problems and decreased property values for residential neighbors.”(Conner & Oppenheim, 2008) There are also some advantages when it comes to economics. “Grazing dairy operations generally require less investment, earn greater returns, and achieve higher net income per cow and per cwt (Conner et al., 2006). Reliance on grass-based feed may also help farmers better manage risk in grain supply and potential price volatility as increasing amounts of field crops are used in bio-fuel production.” (Conner & Oppenheim, 2008) It may take time, but small to medium sustainable farms would be possible and could have economic growth for the local communities.

To increase and maximize the wealth/value of shareholders, it is necessary that the company is competitive in their market and can reliably “earn a considerable return on its investments above their cost of capital” (Doyle, 2000). The increasing rates of return of well performing companies attract new investors who invest money to become shareholders. These outside funds from investors are essential for growth of businesses and the expansion into new markets. Measurements of generated shareholder returns over a certain time period deliver the company useful information on whether their objectives have been achieved or should be new adjusted (Atrill, 2009).
