Multiple workshops related to the 2014 farm bill have been scheduled for December. These workshops are targeted at our numerous crop producers and will provide detailed information on the new ‘covered commodity’ programs (ARC & PLC), new crop insurance products (SCO & STAX), the available decision aids, and what this all means for farm risk management. At the conclusion of this series, if more workshops are needed please let us know and we will schedule them in January 2015.
Please help us get the word out to as many impacted producers in the state.
