MANAGE YOUR MILK PRICE

Following the abrupt downturn in milk markets during the spring and summer of 2020 and nearly an
entire year of lower-than-expected milk prices resulting from the global pandemic, dairy farmers have a
renewed interest in managing the price side of the business.

Please join CCE Capital Area Ag & Hort Program's Farm Business Management Educator Dayton
Maxwell, FSA Executive Director David Holck, Tristan Peterson from Crop Growers Insurance, and Dr.
Chris Wolf of Cornell University for an informative, fun, and educational program.
