Haugen To Provide Insight For The 2023 Season

Area farmers and ranchers are invited to gain some valuable knowledge from NDSU Farm Management Specialist Ron Haugen at 10 a.m., Friday, March 3 during MonDak Ag Days.

In his 30 plus years at NDSU, Haugen has seen the highs and lows of the ag industry and is pleased to share what he sees happening during the current crop year. He said, "Changes are happening all the time in terms on input costs, market prices and farm programs"

With the cost of almost everything except fertilizer going up, Haugen will cover input costs and farm budgets. He will also touch on cash rents and the existing farm bill which expires the end of 2023. Other topics of interest will include the ERP (Emergency Relief Program) and PARP (Pandemic Assistance Revenue Program) and how they may relate to your operation.
