00:00 Hey everybody, it's Lee Luber at Extreme Ag in Greggy, South Dakota. And there's three things we like 00:05 to do every year in December. Number one that I'll be doing next week is I go over and I sit down at our accountant's office 00:13 and, uh, our lender's right there with me. Uh, we started doing that several years ago. That has been awesome. 00:20 The synergies that happen, uh, between your tax planner and your lender, we've gotta remember as, uh, producers, it's not adversarial. 00:27 They're part of your team. That meeting always goes great. And then we go across town. 00:33 Then we sit there, uh, with the guy that we work with on marketing ideas, planning out all of 2024, catching up on 23. 00:40 Making a big battle plan really works well for account lender marketing and myself all in the same room with a lot 00:48 of information firing back and forth. A lot of brainstorming. It's huge. I know a lot of farmers dread that. 00:54 Uh, I look forward to it every year. Number two, what I like to do in December is finalize all of our chemical programs 01:02 and review everything with our retailers that we work with. Make sure we're maximizing what we do value wise 01:09 and performance wise so we don't have surprises on supply. So we have everything in place months 01:15 ahead before we go to the field. Number three, spend time with my kids. Dad's been in the field a lot this year, so, uh, 01:23 I like spending time with my girls. Uh, we like to go on little mini trips, uh, do things to get away. 01:29 Just spend time together. Go uptown to the coffee shop, grab a hot cocoa, whatever it may be. Enjoy the time with family. 01:36 Those are the top three things that I like to do every December to make the next year just be awesome. I'm Lee Luber, extreme Ag. Let's do it.
