Women In Agriculture hold Annual Conference
The 14th Annual MidAtlantic Women In Agriculture Regional Conference will be held on February 13, 2015 at Dover Downs Hotel and Casino in Dover, Delaware. The conference goals are to offer women who are involved with agriculture the opportunity to come together to learn about current issues and topics so they can make informed decisions concerning their agribusinesses and family lives. Sessions will cover marketing, USDA Farm Bill, business planning, crops and much more.
A preconference will also be offered. The preconference will take place on February 12, 2014 from 1-5pm. Participants can choose between two track offerings: Agritourism or Agriculture Law. A Harness Racing Reception will immediately follow the preconference. The reception is included with the purchase of a pre-conference or main conference ticket.
