USDA - Risk Management Agency Education Grant

This project is funded by the Risk Management Agency and is one of the 2003 Commodity Partnerships for Risk Management Education announced by the U. S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) in October, 2003. We have also been funded to provide education to farm families and advisors for the fiscal year of 2005. The workshops reflect the combined efforts of Kansas State University and the Kansas Rural Center. Additional partners include K-State Research and Extension; the Kansas Rural Family Helpline; Kansas Farmers Union; Kansas Agricultural Mediation Services; Kansas Center for Sustainable Agriculture and Alternative Crops; Kansas Farm Bureau; Kansas Farm Management Association, and National Farmers Organization.
