K-State To Host Ag Profitability Conferences Across The State

Kansas State University is hosting a series of Agricultural Profitability Conferences across the state, beginning in December and continuing through early February. Organized by K-State’s Department of Agricultural Economics, the conferences will offer insights into economic trends, farm policy, land values and strategies to maintain profitability during difficult times.

According to conference organizers, sessions will focus on preparing farmers to navigate economic downturns, manage input costs and take advantage of new opportunities. Speakers also will discuss stress and mental health, farm succession and retirement planning. Panelists will include K-State economists, Farm Service Agency personnel and others who can provide practical advice. Each conference will include time for open discussion and questions.

Video: Cold Weather Farming: Tough Week On The Farm!

Cold weather has officially arrived at Ewetopia Farms, and this week gave us everything November in Canada can throw at a sheep farm! In today’s episode, Cold Weather Farming, we take you through a full week of real, raw, and unpredictable conditions that define life on a Canadian sheep farm this time of year.

From pouring rain to heavy winds, mud, freezing temperatures, and finally snow, we experienced just about every type of weather Mother Nature could deliver in a matter of days. With winter arriving early, it's all hands on deck to keep the farm running smoothly and to make sure our Suffolk and Poll Dorset sheep stay warm, dry, and comfortable.
