Risk Management on a Livestock Operation. Part 1

Felicia Bell, NCAT Sustainable Agriculture Specialist at the Gulf States Regional Office in Jackson, Mississippi, has been hosting an online series of workshops, “Weekly Wednesday Workshops.”

This workshop series, part of NCAT’s ATTRA sustainable-agriculture program, is designed to help farmers strengthen the resilience of their operations through marketing, the diversification of enterprises, and sustainable production practices. Though the series was begun during the COVID-19 pandemic, the information in these online workshops is pertinent whether or not a pandemic is taking place.

In this episode, NCAT Sustainable Agriculture Specialist Justin Duncan discusses risk management for livestock operations.

This workshop is produced by the National Center for Appropriate Technology through the ATTRA Sustainable Agriculture program, under a cooperative agreement with USDA Rural Development. This presentation was also made possible in part by funding from the Southern Risk Management Education Center (SRMEC). ATTRA.NCAT.ORG.
