improvement. Suggestions should be specific and actionable. That is, they should be tactical-level

provided to give you an idea of the type of suggestion that is being requested.
The farm's Depreciation Expense Ratio is relatively low. This indicates that the equipment might
be outdated or undersized. Therefore, the farm manager may want to consider investment in
machinery and equipment.
The farm's Working Capital is relatively low. The manager should consider increasing that by
postponing purchase of equipment and machinery and, therefore, holding onto those current
assets.
