Have you ever wondered why some families thrive in agriculture, prospering across generations, while others struggle despite having similar resources? In the first instalment of this High Performing Families series, we chat with Nikko and Jade Lord, the younger generation of the Lord Family, who embody the traits that set successful families apart.
In this engaging conversation, we explore how Nikko's return from college full of bright ideas was met with a delicate balance of freedom and guidance by his father and discuss how he plans to navigate this balance with his own children. Jade shares her experience transitioning from city life in Brisbane to the rural setting of Richmond, and how she and Nikko built strong relationships with his family whilst navigating the challenges this often presents.
We also uncover the Lord family's embrace of the "Who Not How" philosophy, seeking outside help and professional advice to tackle problems and achieve success. Jade provides insight into how they are already preparing their young children to be valuable members of the family and business, ensuring the legacy of prosperity continues. Lastly, we offer advice to young individuals in less prosperous family businesses on how to foster communication and drive their own success.
Tune in to hear these stories and more as Nikko and Jade reveal the principles and practices that make their family’s business a high-performing one.

1 #83: If the Main Profit Drivers Are Not Rainfall, Scale, or Prices…What Is Then? with Dr Kate Burke - Founder of Think Agri 54:37
In this episode, we get straight to the heart of what truly drives profit in family agribusinesses, with insights from Kate Burke of Think Agri. As a seasoned farm consultant with a PhD in agronomy and a background in managing one of Australia's largest grain producers, Kate knows a thing or two about making farms profitable. She joins us to share her expertise and challenge some common misconceptions. Kate kicks off by sharing a bit about her impressive background, setting the stage for a discussion that will have you rethinking what you know about agricultural profitability. When we first discussed this podcast, Kate made a bold claim: factors like rainfall, farm size, and commodity prices are not the biggest determinants of agribusiness success. With the recent tough times—drought, falling livestock prices, rising input costs, and interest rates—many might find this hard to believe. So, what are the real profit drivers? Kate reveals the key factors that can make or break a farm business. Furthermore, she highlights the significant range in farm profit performance across the industry and suggests that many families have the potential to double their returns. What are most families missing in their recipe for success? Tune in to find out the crucial elements that can transform your agribusiness and ensure long-term prosperity for future generations.

Kacie, the family’s communication guru, opens up about the challenges they’ve faced in maintaining trust and effective communication, sharing how they navigated rocky times and ultimately strengthened their bond. One of the most common challenges for farming families is balancing fairness between on-farm and off-farm siblings.

As they look ahead, Ardie and Kacie also ponder their roles in the family’s future, sharing a golden nugget of advice for families striving to preserve both their agribusiness and family unity.

Have you ever wondered why some families thrive in agriculture, prospering across generations, while others struggle despite having similar resources? In the first instalment of this High Performing Families series, we chat with Nikko and Jade Lord, the younger generation of the Lord Family, who embody the traits that set successful families apart. In this engaging conversation, we explore how Nikko's return from college full of bright ideas was met with a delicate balance of freedom and guidance by his father and discuss how he plans to navigate this balance with his own children. Jade shares her experience transitioning from city life in Brisbane to the rural setting of Richmond, and how she and Nikko built strong relationships with his family whilst navigating the challenges this often presents. We also uncover the Lord family's embrace of the "Who Not How" philosophy, seeking outside help and professional advice to tackle problems and achieve success. Jade provides insight into how they are already preparing their young children to be valuable members of the family and business, ensuring the legacy of prosperity continues. Lastly, we offer advice to young individuals in less prosperous family businesses on how to foster communication and drive their own success. Tune in to hear these stories and more as Nikko and Jade reveal the principles and practices that make their family’s business a high-performing one. ----------------------- Ben spent over 20 years working with successful business owners and farming families which allowed him to unearth the timeless principles on how to successfully grow, protect and maintain wealth.
