One season, we had perfect timing with the market prices for onions and made good profit. The next, the market was flooded, and our crop sold for less than the cost of the drip tape itself. It's like the weather and the market both have to agree, which they rarely do. My own lesson? Last year, my tomatoes were perfect, but the truckers' strike meant they just rotted in the field—so the biggest loss wasn't the crop, it was the 'network fail' between my farm and the city.
