Livestock & Poultry Expansion: Critical Issues to Discuss with Farmers & Communities

Top 5 Reasons why Nebraska Extension Educators should attend the professional development “Livestock & Poultry Expansion: Critical Issues to Discuss with Farmers & Communities”:

#5 2016 Unicameral regulation changes for livestock and poultry ownership have opened the door for new investments in animal production in Nebraska. Are you aware of which businesses are considering your communities?

#4 I would like to help farm families bring back the next generation to their farms.

#3 I want to help farmers improve soil health with the original soil health product – manure.

#2 Farmers who have never grown hogs or chicken will benefit from my technical knowledge on nutrient utilization and facility siting to avoid nuisance and biosecurity concerns.

#1 I am a leader in the region helping farmers and rural communities address the critical issues such as economic growth, community relations, and increasing the value of Nebraska corn and soybeans.
