March 2020 Meeting

March 2020-2.jpg

Folks –

Our Thursday event is going to be more timely than we could have ever imagined. We are making it fit the circumstances – it will no longer be a luncheon event, it will be a webinar.

The topic and the presenter, though, will be something you won’t want to miss.

  • If you don’t know Dr. Seth Meyer, you should. He just recently left USDA where he was the Chair of the World Agricultural Outlook Board and now he is at the University of Missouri as co-director of their highly-regarded FAPRI.

  • His message really will be about dealing with the current uncertainties...

    • Coronavirus

    • Phase I and China

    • Planting intentions/outlook for the major crops

    • Implications for the livestock sector

You can expect a very lively, pertinent, and timely presentation from Dr. Seth Meyer. So, sign up today for our Thursday webinar!!

Best regards.
