Farming Business Guidance and Data Resources for the Working Farmer
Agriculture is huge. Beyond the growing of crops and livestock, it encompasses the considerations of food packaging, transportation, marketing, agritourism, and Farmers Markets, plus cottage industries like home canning, marketing, craft breweries, and wineries. Local, state and federal agencies participate, serving multiple roles in regulating the safety and security of farmers and food production through delivery, but which does what? Join Suzi Teghtmeyer, Michigan State University Agriculture Librarian, in an overview of agricultural agencies and agricultural resources for the farming professional an entrepreneur. She will address the current landscape, trends, research, and policies, and provide resources for finding federal and state-specific agricultural information, statistics, and datasets.
