Excelling at Excel: Practical Skills for Everyday UseThe Office of Farm and Ranch Transition at Kansas State University Agricultural Economics, in partnership with community college agricultural programs, is hosting one-day conferences designed for beginning farmers and ranchers. As many baby-boomer farmers/ranchers across Kansas prepare for retirement, there is a growing need to equip the next generation of farm and ranch operators to ensure the future of rural communities. This conference aims to help young people, particularly those between the ages of 17 and 30, understand what it takes to enter and succeed in production agriculture. While the event is geared toward students, it will also be open to the public.
Reasons for Beginning Farmers/Ranchers to Attend
Participants will gain practical skills in transition planning and farm management that can be applied to their own family farming operations. In addition, the program will introduce USDA-FSA loan opportunities, offering valuable information on financial resources available to help beginning farmers and ranchers overcome the challenges of entering production agriculture.
“Owning It: Financial Clarity for Owners, Families, and Non-Profits”
Description:
Whether you’re running a business, managing a household budget, or leading a non-profit, your financial decisions are connected. Over lunch, we’ll discuss how to:
Think like an owner when it comes to building long-term value
Make personal choices around retirement, budgeting, and insurance with more confidence
Strengthen non-profit finances to better support your mission
The goal isn’t to turn you into a financial expert in an hour, but to give you clarity, language, and next steps so you can move forward more intentionally.
Free lunch will be provided. RSVP required.
