The 101st Agricultural Outlook Forum, presented by the USDA, will convene on February 27-28, 2025, at the Crystal City Gateway Marriott, with simultaneous virtual streaming. Themed “Meeting Tomorrow’s Challenges, Today,” the forum will feature insights from USDA Chief Economist Seth Meyer and other agricultural leaders.

This premier event will dive into the economic and trade outlook for 2025, offering forecasts on commodity prices, farm incomes, and market trends. Over 100 experts from government, academia, and industry will discuss the pressing issues facing U.S. agriculture, from global trade dynamics to the impact of climate change on farming practices.

Participants will benefit from 30 targeted breakout sessions exploring a variety of themes such as the future of biofuels, advancements in biotechnology, and effective climate change strategies. Additionally, the forum will facilitate direct interaction with USDA-funded innovations and key agency programs through its exhibit booths.

The forum also serves as a platform for the Future Leaders in Agriculture Program, which nurtures the next generation of agricultural professionals through specialized briefings and tours in the nation’s capital.
