 Upcoming Agribusiness Seminars are scheduled across the state to
assist farmers on a variety of topics, including Federal Crop
Insurance offerings, navigating the crop insurance claims
process should devastation hit your farm, and a market outlook
on grain prices for 2020.
“We are excited to connect with our COUNTRY clients, Farm Bureau
members and others interested in information that will help them
better plan for the 2020 crop year in Illinois,” said Doug
Yoder, COUNTRY Financial Crop Agency Manager. “These meetings
proved helpful during a rough 2019 and assisted many of our
clients to be in better positions to overcome the weather
challenges they faced because they better understood the
resources available to them. I encourage all Illinois farmers to
find the nearest Agribusiness Seminar this winter and plan on
attending.”
COUNTRY Financial®, Illinois Farm Bureau and other organizations
are pleased to team up for these Agribusiness Seminars, and
offer dozens of talks throughout Illinois to better equip
farmers and growers with the knowledge they need to make
informed decisions for their operations. Below, is an upcoming
