Ag Outlook Forum

September 16, 2024

Kansas City Marriott Downtown
200 West 12th Street, Kansas City
8:00 a.m. - 5:30 p.m. central

The 10th annual Ag Outlook Forum will feature top economic, policy, business, and government officials presenting their current outlooks and helping you identify the challenges and opportunities you face in these volatile times.

Whether you are a business leader, trade association executive, or producer, this is a program that offers all you need to align your business plan with ever changing circumstances.

The audience has strong regional roots, but draws from across the nation. In 2023 attendance grew to 425 and is regarded as one of the premier ag events in the pre-harvest time-frame.
