# Farm Leader Guide

> Run the farm.

Bicycle Guide reconciles the best books on a topic into one sourced guide and shows where they disagree.

Categories below are subject shelves: each groups guides that answer one kind of work or life problem. A guide's link points at its canonical home, which may be a persona front rather than this domain.

Farming has centuries of written practice and very little of it is about MANAGING the operation. This is the travel-guide version: we read the serious books on running agricultural work — labour, land, weather risk, margin — planned the route, and marked every stop worth making, honest about what is settled and what is still argued.

Every guide linked below has a main guide free to read. Some clearly mark additional paid sections, tools and downloads. Guide pages include source information. Links point at each guide's own canonical home, which is not always this domain.
