Ohio State University Fact Sheet Agricultural Economics 2120 Fyffe Road, Columbus, OH 43201-1066 Compensating Farm Employees HRM-2-97 Mike Hogan Hiring and managing employees is a new and challenging experience for many Ohio farm managers. As farms continue to become larger and more complex, and farm family demographics change, the need to effectively manage hired employees is likely to increase. How you compensate these employees can help to determine how successful these employees will be, since compensation perceived to be unreasonable by the employee can be an important source of job dissatisfaction. This fact sheet is intended to provide farm managers with information regarding various types of compensation. Determining How to Compensate Employees There is no precise method of determining exactly how much a particular job is worth to a business. A comparison of what other area employers are paying for similar work is a good way to establish a general salary guideline. Local Chambers of Commerce sometimes collect this type of information in their communities. Asking other farm employers in your area how they compensate employees is another option. You should also compare how other nonfarm employers in your area are compensating employees for similar jobs, since you will be competing with those employers for the best employees. An Iowa State University study found that off-farm jobs were the largest cause of farm employee departures. Twice as many employees left for off-farm jobs than those who left to work on other farms, or to begin farming on their own. One would expect the same type of scenario in Ohio, where many opportunities for off- farm employment exist.

Farm Security - "Treat it Seriously," Security for Animal Agriculture: Prevention Author: C. C. Stallings, F. C. Gwazdauskas, and G. M. Jones, Extension Specialists, Dairy Science; Virginia Tech Publication Number 445-001, July 2002 Threats to farm security can come from many sources. Intentional destruction or contamination of livestock is a possibility that producers must guard against. Safe substances may be used to produce unsafe or harmful combinations if used incorrectly or indiscriminately. These include chemicals, fertilizers, pesticides, and animal drugs. Farm management should secure and account for such products and report anyone acting suspiciously or wishing to obtain abnormal quantities of any substances. According to the American Feed Industry Association's Guide to Biosecurity Awareness, animals and feed ingredients may become adulterated by the following means: Biological (bacteria, toxins, viruses, parasites, etc.) Chemical (classical chemical warfare agents and toxic industrial chemicals, such as pesticides, rodenticides, and heavy metals) Radiological (agents that can be delivered in liquid or solid form) Physical (metals, glass, and plastic)

Incentive Plans for Farm Employees Farm Business Management Update, August 1997 By Jack Dunford of the Department of Agricultural and Applied Economics, Virginia Tech The way that a farm employee does his or her work affects a farmer's profits. Many farmers have thought about rewarding their good employees, but not as many are actually doing it. Employees should be given as much control as possible over the enterprise which affects their performance rating. A good incentive payment plan has several characteristics: (1) the payment is above and beyond the normal basic wage and privileges, (2) the employee knows beforehand the extent and limit of the payment, (3) the employee fully understands what must be done to warrant the extra payment, and (4) the payment is based on the performance of the employee, not the performance of the farm. There are four basic types of incentive plans that can be considered by farm operators or managers of any type of business. The most common category of incentive plans are based on physical production over and beyond an agreed upon base level, for instance, higher percentage calf crops, increased milk production or higher quality milk, more bushels per acre, etc. These types of plans are easy to understand and payments are easily computed but the primary disadvantage is that production costs may be disregarded in achieving the higher production levels. Another shortcoming of this method is that some unfortunate circumstance over which the employee has no control (drought for instance) may eliminate or greatly reduce the incentive payment.

Agricultural Managing Farm Labor Joe Parcell Department of Agricultural Economics, University of Missouri-Columbia Melvin Brees Farm Management Specialist, Central Region Farm labor management involves hiring and keeping quality farm labor. This means farmers must compete with nonfarm employers for skilled workers. This guide provides farm and agribusiness owners with an overview of the following aspects of farm labor management: (1) finding the right employee, (2) compensation and incentives, (3) training the employee, (4) working conditions, (5) employer-employee relations, and (6) external benefits beyond relieving work duties on the farm. It also provides an introduction to labor laws and documentation for employing workers. This guide provides farm/agribusiness owners with an overview of the farm labor management process. Sourcing labor Locating and obtaining suitable labor has always been a difficult task for agricultural producers. Low unemployment rates and a decrease in the rural population have compounded the producer's difficulty in obtaining suitable employees. Traditionally, farm managers have found labor through word of mouth, classified ads in the local newspaper, or inquiries from individuals seeking employment. As the rural environment changes, the sourcing of agricultural employees has also changed. The traditional methods of sourcing labor are still viable, but other methods may be required. Two possible sources for labor in the future are seasonal labor and the older generation.

If you're in this situation, you may feel a bit Out of your element. You're not alone. "Traditional farmers have been oriented to production management, financial management, and marketing management, and to a much lesser degree to human resource and people management," says Bernie Erven, ageconomist, Ohio State University. "One of the characteristics of traditional farming is that you don't have to deal with customers. You deal with crops, animals, and machinery, and so employees become an extension of the tractor or the animal," he says. Obviously, if you want to find good employees, that kind of thinking won't cut it. But, what do you do?

Agricultural Personnel Issues - Employee Compensation Securing human resources is a complex issue. Is the person an employee or an independent contractor? What forms need to be completed and on file? What is a fair wage? What about benefits? When and how much salary withholdings should be made? And the questions go on and on. This article discusses some of the various forms of compensation for farm employees. It is intended for educational purposes only. Appropriate legal and accounting counsel should be sought for individual situations. Tax considerations are based on tax laws in effect as of June 30, 1995. Compensating Employees Most employees receive monetary compensation for their efforts. However, agricultural producers frequently have opportunities to compensate their employees with "noncash" benefits. Commodities, housing, personal use of business assets, clothing, etc. are all noncash, fringe benefits. Compensating employees with fringe benefits has potential tax advantages for the employer and/or the employee. Neither the employer nor the employee are obligated to pay social security taxes (FICA) on noncash wages. Furthermore, the value of noncash compensation to the employee may be greater than the actual cost to the employer. Some forms of compensation benefit the employer as much as the employee. Protective clothing and education may reduce work related accidents when the employee is working with pesticides. Bonuses may keep employees from quitting during critical times.
