Published Date: Mar 21, 2023

CCUA is proud to partner with MNP to offer credit union professionals a webinar series that tackles questions at the top of many agriculture members minds. Join us on May 8, 2023 from 2:30pm – 4:00p.m. to attend our first in a three-part agriculture webinar series – Ag Risk Management – which will focus on the pressing agricultural issues in our world today.

Ag Risk Management Webinar

Gaining an understanding of Ag financial statements is the first step in managing risk within your Ag loans portfolio. However, with the volatility in farming and the dependency on external factors (such as weather and insurance), understanding financial statements is not enough. Ag lenders must build knowledge on risk as it relates to agriculture. Join us on May 8, 2023 for a special webinar where attendees will:

  • Discuss why understanding risk in Ag is important
  • Consider pros and cons of collateral lending
  • Uncover how to mitigate risk in lending by understanding interconnectedness of farming operations to external factors
  • Review the various insurance products available to farmers to help them manage their risk
  • Explain how the various insurance products work independently and together to reduce the overall risk on farms

“As a Business Advisor that will be lending to mainly Ag members, it is very beneficial to have additional knowledge of the different programs available and how they work/work with each other.” 2022 course participant.

This series is sure to be exceptionally valuable! Any interested professionals can register for this webinar which will be hosted on CCUA Campus by the title above.
