New farmers (small scale ) are asking questions about onion management & profitability.

You hear about specific products, systems and management practices. The dos and don't s.

It's said that drip irrigation is the best and in some cases it's said without drip you won't succeed.

A long list of products is presented as the must use.

Then comes the tons and acreage. 1 acre gives you 20 tons and the cost of production is said to be between 250-490k.

Is this really true? Is onion farming that complex?

In the next few months, I'll share how we are doing it at Tech Farms. Simple but meticulously executed and how you can start as small as ⅛ acre.

Bill Gates: Farmland Ownership and Connection to McDonald's

Bill Gates is the largest private farmland owner in the United States, holding approximately 275,000 acres across 19 states. This represents less than 1% of the total U.S. farmland, which spans around 911 million acres. His investments in farmland are driven by interests in agricultural innovation, such as seed science and biofuel development. Notable holdings include significant acreage in Louisiana, Arkansas, and Arizona.

A substantial portion of his farmland—14,500 acres in Washington state—is dedicated to potato cultivation, including potatoes used for McDonald's French fries. This highlights a unique connection between his agricultural ventures and the fast-food industry.

McDonald's and Bill Gates: A Unique Relationship

Bill Gates also holds a rare McDonald's Gold Card, granting him unlimited free meals at any McDonald’s worldwide. His connection to the chain extends beyond this privilege, as his farmland produces key ingredients like potatoes for McDonald's iconic fries. This relationship reflects both Gates’s personal affection for McDonald's and the company’s strategic marketing efforts to associate with high-profile figures.

McDonald's Profit Trends and Revenue Strategies

McDonald's profits have shown significant fluctuations over the past decade:

2019: Net income was approximately $6.03 billion.

2020: Profit decreased to $4.73 billion, impacted by the pandemic.

2021: Recovery brought a net income of about $7.55 billion.

2022: Slight decline to around $6.17 billion.

2023: Profits rebounded to approximately $7.82 billion.

Overall, McDonald's profits have trended upward post-pandemic, driven by effective growth strategies in the fast-food sector.

High-Profit Items on McDonald's Menu

The most profitable items on McDonald's menu are french fries and fountain drinks, with profit margins of approximately 75-90% and 90%, respectively. Their profitability stems from low ingredient costs and high demand. Burgers and breakfast items also contribute significantly to revenue, but fries and drinks remain the top earners due to their exceptional markup and enduring popularity.

Supply Chain Management - KFC 2018 Crisis

In February 2018, KFC faced a significant crisis in the UK due to a chicken shortage that forced the closure of over 800 restaurants. This disruption stemmed from operational issues with its new logistics partner, DHL, which struggled to manage deliveries effectively after KFC switched from its previous supplier. The situation escalated to the point where KFC had to issue a humorous full-page apology ad, cleverly rearranging its name to "FCK," which garnered widespread media attention and helped mitigate negative sentiment.
