a 12-part series focusing on using partial budgets to answer questions in a technique commonly known as “penciling it out.” Because Texas and Oklahoma are so diverse and each ranch is unique, the series was not designed to provide a 1-size-fi ts- all answer. Instead it was created to help producers become familiar with a handy tool that can be used to strengthen the bottom line. The series has been developed in col- laboration with Carl Homeyer, state agriculture economist for the Natu- ral Resources Conservation Service in Temple, Texas.

Before joining the NRCS in 2009, Homeyer operated his family’s Burleson County ranch, which also includes broiler houses, while owning and running several small businesses.
