How to Plan for Success with Amol Deshpande of Farmers Business Network
Family farmers, who are the backbone of the food and agricultural system globally, represent fast-growing small businesses looking to innovate. That's why Amol Deshpande left his career as an investor to start Farmers Business Network (FBN), the global farmer-to-farmer network and agtech company. FBN is on a mission to power the prosperity of family farmers around the world and now supports over 43,000 farmers responsible for over 80 million acres in the U.S., Canada, and Australia. Amol shares why—despite the stereotype—farmers are tech-forward, how his upbringing instilled an appetite for risk-taking, and why it's critical to invest time with your children consistently, just as you show up consistently at work.
