AG In Uncertain Times webinar: Managing Drought and Disaster Impacts

Date: Tuesday, November 20, 2012

Time: 12:00 Eastern/11:00 Central/10:00 Mountain/9:00 Pacific

Droughts and natural disasters have caused 
widespread effects across the farm economy this 
past year by increasing price volatility and 
production risk, as well as increasing financial 
uncertainty. These risks directly affect farms 
and ranches impacted by the natural disaster but 
also producers far removed are affected by 
reduced input supplies and price increases. A 
three part webinar series will present issues 
concerning managing drought and disaster impacts.

The first webinar will be November 20 and 
addresses livestock issues. Presentations and presenters include:

Market Outlooks for Cattle, Dairy, Forage and Feed –

    Erika Rosa-Sanko and Katelyn McCullock 
(Livestock Marketing Information Center)

Feeding Risks from Drought Impacted Feeds and Forages -

    Dr. Rachel Endecott (Montana State University)

Should I Buy Hay or Sell Cows - Jeffrey Tranel (Colorado State University)

A second webinar is scheduled for December 7 and 
will address tax and financial risk related to 
drought and disaster impacts and will be 
co-hosted by the AAEA Extension Section. The 
third webinar in the series, planned for next 
spring, will address strategies for the upcoming 
production year facing uncertain institutional, production and market risks.
