Project Overview

As AgriLogic has participated in several Risk Management Education (RME) programs over the years, we have developed a strong understanding of the risk management and crop insurance domains and created a library of useful information resources and tools designed to help producers navigate their risk management challenges.  In a previously completed RME project, we partnered with the Farmer Veteran Coalition (FVC) to deliver risk management education sessions to beginning veteran producers.  Under this most recent project, we extended our partnership with the FVC to make additional risk management education opportunities available to the Coalition’s veteran membership.  Under this project, we expanded on the risk management topics provided under the previous program to provide additional information to prior attendees as well as provide the opportunity for veteran producers unable to attend previous webinars another opportunity to participate.  Presentation and webinar topics presented included information on available Federal crop insurance programs.  Additionally, topics were expanded to include general liability issues associated with production agriculture, record-keeping, Farm Service Agency (FSA) programs, and food safety.  While topics were covered during live presentations and webinars, all webinar sessions were recorded and made available via YouTube for future viewing and consumption by FVC's veteran membership.
