Farmers and ranchers are no strangers to adversity, but today’s challenges are testing the resilience of Kansas agriculture.

Ongoing trade disputes and tariffs have disrupted markets and reduced export opportunities, driving drop prices lower while input costs for seed, fertilizer, and equipment remain high. The result is tighter margins and tougher decisions for many Kansas producers. K-State is offering conferences across Kansas from Dec. 9 to Feb. 5.

This program will provide an overview of the current farm financial situation and explore management strategies. For more information, visit www.AgManager.info/profitability.
