FCS Financial is sponsoring four “Livestock Risk Management” educational programs across Missouri. All programs are being conducted by the University of Missouri.
The training will prepare livestock producers to manage both price and weather risk. Particular attention will be given to various insurance programs available to livestock producers. Programs available to manage price risk include Livestock Risk Protection (LRP) and Livestock Gross Margin (LGM), the Dairy Margin Protection Program. Programs available to manage weather risk include Pasture, Range and Forage Insurance (PRF), the Livestock Forage Disaster program (LFP) and the Livestock Indemnity Program (LIP). Understanding how to use these federally subsidized programs can assist producers in minimizing the hazards inherent in livestock production.
To register for these free meetings contact your local extension specialist.
