Standard Operating Procedures and Their Use on Farms

Standard Operating Procedures, or SOPs are documents that outline how to complete a task. These protocols are a simple way to ensure that routine farm processes happen the same way each time. A well-written SOP can help you save time, train workers, and deliver a more consistent product. This University of Maine Cooperative Extension webpage explains what kinds of tasks SOPs should be created for, describes the characteristics of quality SOPS and provides a template for drafting SOPs.
