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
