Saturday, January 26, will provide producers with 36 workshop options covering crops and livestock production, financial management, record keeping, leasing, succession planning, and much more.  Saturday's workshops will provide pertinent information for both the beginning and experienced producer, and counts as FSA Borrower Training as well.

Hosted by the Glacier and Toole County Farm Service Agency, local MSU Extension, Marias River Livestock Association, NACDC Financial Services, and the Front Range Counties Farm Bureau, this comprehensive conference of business management, succession planning and production workshops is one not to miss.
