The Free Webinar Will Take Place on Friday, August 9 at 12 p.m. EST
On Friday, August 9 from 12-1 p.m., the Center for Dairy Excellence will host a monthly “Protecting Your Profits” webinar titled “The Read on Feed Markets: A Market Update and Intro to Managing Feed Risk.” Kathleen Noble Wolfley and Bryce Windecker from Ever.Ag will explore market factors that are influencing feed price and share strategies to help farmers mitigate feed price risk.
“There are a variety of market factors that influence feed price and dairy farmers’ bottom line. We’re looking forward to welcoming back Ever.Ag to our monthly webinar series to explore this topic and offer strategies dairy producers could implement to navigate volatile feed prices,” said Valerie Mason-Faith, Risk Education Manager at the Center.
During the webinar, Windecker and Noble Wolfley will provide:
- An update on key feed commodity markets: corn, soybean meal, canola and cottonseed
- A deep dive into basis trends in the Northeast
- Ways for livestock producers to manage feed risk
