Ukuhlela umhlalaphansi cishe akudluli kakhulu kunobufakazi bokugcina ohlwini lwabalimi abaningi okufanele bakwenze. Asikho isihloko esimnandi ukucabanga ngaso, kodwa zombili ziyadingeka ukuze kuvikelwe abathandekayo bomnikazi webhizinisi lomndeni kanye nebhizinisi.
Izinhlelo zokushintsha ubunikazi bomsebenzi kanye nempahla yawo, kungaba ezihlotsheni noma kubalingani abangebona abomndeni, akufanele kube yinto eyenzeka kanye kuphela. Njengoba ibhizinisi lishintsha izinto — okuzokwenzeka, kungaba ngenxa yezizathu zangaphakathi noma zangaphandle — izinhlelo kudingeka ziphinde zibuyekezwe njalo. “Ngicabanga ukuthi ukubuyekeza izinhlelo kubalulekile ukuze wonke umuntu abe sekhasini elifanayo,” kusho uDominic LaJoie, umlingani e- I-LaJoie Growers LLC eMaine kanye nomongameli wamanje weNational Potato Council. “Khona-ke bayazi ukuthi uma lokhu kwenzeka, khona-ke lena yindlela esiya kuyo.
“Ukungabi nahlelo cishe kuzoba ukuphela komsebenzi. Uhlelo lwami ukuqinisekisa ukuthi lo msebenzi uyaqhubeka isikhathi eside ngemva kokuba sengihambile, ngakho lokho kuhlala kusengqondweni yami.” ULajoie ujoyine abanye abalimi bamazambane kanye nabathumeli uJason Davenport we-Allied Potato eseCalifornia, kanye noBob Mattive waseColorado, enkulumweni eyenzeka etafuleni eliyindilinga ngesikhathi se-Potato Expo mayelana nokwabiwa kwepulazi. Ibhizinisi Lezolimo laseLincoln Abalingani bakhe uMichael Cohen, uJeff DeWald noMark Sherin basize ekuholeni ingxoxo.
Akuyona eyodwa, kodwa ezimbili
“Ipulazi ngalinye lidinga izinhlelo ezimbili zokulandelana,” kusho uDeWald. “Uhlelo lapho konke kuhamba kahle, bese kuba uhlelo lapho impilo ikunika ithuba elihle.” "Into eyodwa esivame ukuyibona ukuthi umndeni wasepulazini udala uhlelo lokulandelana kwezindlu - futhi kungaba uhlelo oluhle kakhulu - kodwa bese belufaka ebhodleleni elisedroweni ledeski ndawana thize bese luhlala lapho iminyaka eyi-10 noma engama-20.
ULaJoie uyavuma ukuthi unecala ngalokho. Endabeni yobudlelwano bomndeni wakhe, ama-curveball amakhulu empeleni ayeyizinto ezinhle ngendlela yokukhula okungalindelekile kanye nesizukulwane esincane somndeni esijoyina lo msebenzi. Noma kunjalo, lapho uhlelo oludala selukhishwe ekugcineni futhi luhlolwa, uLaJoie wamangala ukuthi ngabe belungaphumeleli kangakanani ukube bekufanele luqaliswe ukusebenza.
“Izinto zashintsha ngokushesha okukhulu. Esinye isizukulwane sangena ekuhlinzeni, futhi sakhulisa ukuhlinzwa saya ezingeni ebengingakaze ngicabange ukuthi lingenzeka,” kusho uLaJoie. “Uhlelo lokuqala lwaluhlala edroweni iminyaka eyi-12 noma eyi-13 futhi engqondweni yethu. “Sasizizwa sivikelekile, kodwa lapho ekugcineni sivula lolo hlelo, aluzange luhambisane nanoma yiziphi izidingo zethu. Kwakucishe kube yingozi ukuba nalolo hlelo lube khona.” Wanezela ngokuthi “ukuhlolwa kokucindezeleka” kwembula ukuthi ngemva kokukhokhwa kwentela nezimali zomthetho, kwakuzoba kuncane kakhulu okwakuzoya emindenini yabalingani. “Lokho kwakungivula amehlo kakhulu,” esho.
Kwezolimo, indlela yokusebenza ejwayelekile ibilokhu isho ukutshala kabusha inzuzo ebhizinisini, kungaba ngemishini noma ukuthenga umhlaba noma okunye ukunwetshwa. Nokho, uSherin weluleke ngokuthi abalimi akufanele badebeselele ukutshalwa kwezimali komuntu siqu okuzodingeka ukuze baqhubeke nomhlalaphansi. “Abalimi abahlali betshala imali ezitokisini nasezibondwini bese kuthi lapho bedlula ebhizinisini, bangabi nalutho olungaphandle kwalokho abangakubonisa,” kusho uSherin, oncoma okuthile okufana nokuhlaziywa kwegebe lenani ukusiza ukuhlela umhlalaphansi. “Abantu baphila isikhathi eside. Umhlalaphansi ojwayelekile manje uyiminyaka engama-20.”
Ukuyigcina emndenini ... noma cha?
Nakuba abalimi abaningi bethanda umcabango wokugcina ibhizinisi lomndeni liyibhizinisi lomndeni ngemva kokushiya ibhizinisi, ngezinye izikhathi lokho akuyona njalo indlela engcono kakhulu yokwenza. UDavenport, owasungula ibhizinisi Izambane Ezihlangene ngo-2007, wavela esimweni lapho ipulazi labazali bakhe lathengiswa komunye umuntu lapho bephuma ebhizinisini, ngakho uyaqonda ukuthi indlela yokudlulisela imali ayisebenzi kahle. “Ngezinye izikhathi, lokho kulula nje,” esho.
Yena nomlingani wakhe webhizinisi, bobabili abanezingane ezingakakhuli ngokwanele ukwenza isinqumo sokuthi bangathanda yini ukuqhubeka nebhizinisi lezolimo, bazama ukukhulisa i-Allied Potato ngendlela evumela ukuguquguquka kokubili kubo kanye nasezinganeni zabo, uma bekhetha ukuthatha izintambo kamuva. “Kufanele sibe nengxoxo eqotho mayelana nokuthi yiziphi izinselelo zethu nokuthi singazakha kanjani lezo zindinganiso hhayi nje esizukulwaneni esilandelayo, kodwa nakithi,” kusho uDavenport. “Angifuni ukushaywa yisimo lapho ngokuzumayo ngineminyaka engu-65 bese ngibona ukuthi ngikhathele futhi ngifuna ukwehlisa ijubane.”
Esinye isici ekudaleni umsebenzi ongabekezelela ushintsho lobunikazi ukugcina abasebenzi ababalulekile abangohlobo lokuphatha abangasiza ekuthwaleni umthwalo uma umlingani edinga ukuyeka. Ngisho nokuthola abasebenzi abanjalo kuyinselele njengamanje kubanikazi bamabhizinisi ezolimo, ingasaphathwa eyokubagcina. “Imakethe yezabasebenzi kwezolimo iya iba nzima kakhulu. Kusenjalo, kuzwakala sengathi siphuca amabhizinisi angomakhelwane bethu,” kusho uDavenport. “Kuzwakala sengathi ababaningi abantu abangena kwezolimo ukuzothuthuka, kanti labo abasebasha kakhulu.”
“Sinabantu abahle abasisebenzelayo futhi abakhuthele, kodwa ngibona izidingo ezengeziwe kamuva.” ULaJoie wengeze wathi, “Ubuchwepheshe bube usizo olukhulu ekugcwaliseni ezinye zalezo zikhala, ukusebenza kahle kakhulu nokwenza imisebenzi eminingi, kodwa ukuqasha nokuthola abantu abahle ukuba babe ngumphathi wepulazi ophelele kanye nomuntu wepulazi ophelele kuyinselele.” UDavenport uthe inkampani yakhe inephakheji yezinzuzo eziqinile ehlanganisa isakhiwo sebhonasi yokusebenza kwebhizinisi ukuze kunikezwe abasebenzi abangagcini ukulingana umuzwa wokuba ngabanikazi.
“Sizama futhi ukuguquguquka ngesikhathi sethu sokuphumula,” wanezela. “Siyazi ukuthi isikhathi sethu esimatasa kanye nezinkathi ezimatasa zinini. Sizama ukuguqula ibhizinisi lethu ukuze linikeze ibhalansi yomsebenzi nempilo. Ngicabanga ukuthi ezolimo eziningi mhlawumbe azigxili kulokho ngokwanele.” Lapho ebuzwa ukuthi kungenzeka yini ukuthi isakhiwo sezezimali esihlanganisa izinzuzo ezengeziwe ezingakhokhi intela kubasebenzi - kokubili ngokushesha nangesikhathi eside - siyatholakala, uDavenport uthe angasifaka isandla.
“Lokho akusikhangi nje kuphela njengabanikazi ngenxa yentela kithi kanye (nabasebenzi), kodwa ekugcineni yilokho abantu abakufunayo,” esho. “Bafuna ukwazi ukuthi bayasivuza yini ngokwethembeka kwabo, khona-ke sizobavuza kanjani ngokwethembeka nangesikhathi esizayo.” Lapho ebuzwa ukuthi iseluleko sakhe siyini kubalimi abakanye nabo, uLajoie uthe, “Hlala phansi ubheke ukuthi yini onayo, futhi uma ungenakho okuhleliwe, nakanjani thola usizo bese uqala.”
"Isikhathi sihamba ngokushesha, imindeni iyashintsha nsuku zonke, futhi uma ufuna umndeni wakho uvikelwe, ipulazi lakho livikelwe kanye nalo lonke lelo fa livikelwe, kufanele uqale manje."
