Over the last several weeks, the dairy industry has experienced increased turmoil.  We’ve heard about milk being dumped, grocery stores limiting milk purchases, dairy markets sliding, and processors asking farms for reduced milk production.  What is going on and what can we do?

“Financial Support Programs & Continuing the Legacy of Ag” is the fourth webinar in the “Farm Management Through a Crisis: Part of the Supporting Farmers During Challenging Times Series”. 
 

May 7 Agenda:

  • Overview of PPP, EIDL and PUA: Details for Farmers, Joy Kirkpatrick, Outreach Specialist, UW-Madison Center for Dairy Profitability
  • P3 Basics, Corey Fanslau, Senior Financial Services Officer, Greenstone Farm Credit Services
  • CARES Act Programs and Farm Loan Options Through FSA, Sandy Chalmers, WI State Farm Service Agency Executive Director, and Tom Brandt, WI FSA Loan Chief
  • Been There, Done That – Doesn’t Apply Today, Pam Jahnke, Farm Director, Midwest Farm Report

There is no charge for the webinar, and it is open to everyone who has an interest in this topic.
