If you’ve wanted to learn more about short-term operating plans and how to create one for your farm, join MU Extension for an engaging and interactive educational opportunity! The Farm Management: On My Own program ‘Planning for the Unplanned’ series will provide insight into the components and details of short-term operating plans and help landowners and farm operators make sound decisions when preparing for the unexpected.  

Participants will leave the series with knowledge of:   

  • The essential components of short-term operating plans. 
  •  The importance of each component of the short-term operating plan.  
  • How to craft each of the plan’s components to reflect your farm operation.  
  • How to join together all of the components to form a complete plan.   

This program is designed for female landowners and farm operators, but all are welcome to participate in an informal, participant-driven and learner-focused event. Take advantage of this convenient learning opportunity, with face-to-face and online options available!
