thought of the day
1. Life is very short. The richness of one's relationships is what defines him or her. Not wealth, not knowledge, not fame!
2. Researchers discovered that the higher up the corporate ladder a business leader progresses, the more they rely on "gut-feel" and 80%of successful CEOs have a highly developed intuitive decison making style, even though at times there is no clear logic to prove it.

Sustainable Farming - A Model
To be sustainable, inputs must be less than outputs. Inputs include fuel and all forms of energy, labour and raw materials. Even treatment of wastes must not consume excessive energy. For a farmer to practice sustainable agriculture, he must derive a reasonable income from his efforts.
This is a model for sustainable agriculture we developed at our farm (click to enlarge):
The only purchased inputs are corn and other feed ingredients. From here, all 'wastes' are recycled. Dung, carcasses, etc are all composted and made into high quality humus. Using humus and compost tea and proper management, an acre of land can produce 30 tonnes of high protein napia grass. This is fed to goats and fish. Using humus and compost tea, and selecting low-nitrogen demanding heritage seeds such as bayam pasir, terung telunjuk, etc we can produce abundant market vegetables.
We calculated a net income of RM3000 to RM5000 per month is possible from such a farm.
This how an acre of land may look like (click to enlarge):

Collecting Rent Payments and Managing Properties Online
Collecting rent payments online is both quick and convenient for both tenants and landlords. There are also quite a few online resources to assist you with this task.
The most basic way to accept rental payments online is through Paypal. Paypal allows the tenant to pay via their bank account or credit card. Setting up a merchant account through Paypal is easy and free. Depending on the amount of monthly rent collected, the fees start at about 2.9% for this service.
T-ReX Global has just recently rolled out their online rent payment system which is fully integrated with their popular property management software. The basic software is free with multiple properties and rent payments being an additional fee.
Buildium has an online property management program with online rent payment specifically for landlords who have less than 50 properties. Plans start at about $10/month.
Quicken Rental Property Manager is a favorite with new landlords. It is easy to set up and begin using right away. It is limiting in that it does not allow you to upload pictures or documents. Of course it is easily compatible with Turbo-tax which is a plus for those who use the popular tax preparation program. The cost for the program on the Intuit website is $149.99.
Landlordmax is a feature filled program that can create a report analyzing just about anything with regards to your rental business - perfect for the micro-manager. The cost on the website is $165 for the download.
