In late February, 72 young, beginning farmers from across the state enjoyed an interactive learning conference hosted by the Farm Credit Associations of Arkansas.

From part-time cattle farmers to full-time poultry producers and large-scale Eastern Arkansas rice producers, the conference created an opportunity for farmers to network, compare challenges, and learn from one another.

Nationally recognized as one of the premiere authorities on ag economics and young farmers, Dr. David Kohl facilitated the two-day event. Dr. Kohl shared business tools that producers could immediately apply to their operation.

The next Future Legacy Conference will be in February of 2024.

Keynote speaker and economist Dr. David Kohl led discussions about how farmers and ranchers can find success in their operations.
