AgWest Farm Credit Events Offer Timely Insights for Today’s Agricultural Operations

For agricultural professionals, staying informed is not optional — it is part of good business management. AgWest Farm Credit’s events and on-demand resources provide practical information on topics that matter to producers, agribusinesses, and the broader agricultural community, from economic outlooks to labor, immigration, fertilizer trends, and other timely issues.

Why educational events matter

Agriculture is constantly changing, and decisions made today are shaped by markets, policy, input costs, labor availability, and long-term planning. Educational webinars and conferences help industry professionals evaluate current conditions, compare perspectives, and make more informed operational decisions. AgWest’s programming reflects that need by offering in-person, virtual, and branch-hosted events designed to keep participants current on key issues affecting agriculture.

A resource for practical, timely information

Among AgWest’s upcoming offerings is the Agriculture Economic Update Webinar: Excellence at the Margin featuring Dr. Dave Kohl on September 17, 2026. The session is designed to examine domestic and global agricultural economics and the key issues shaping the future of the industry, with relevance for ag operations of all sizes, enterprise types, and geographic regions.

AgWest also maintains on-demand resources that allow users to revisit recent presentations, including:

• Fertilizer Update and Outlook with Dr. Faith Parum.

• What’s Driving Agriculture in the Year Ahead.

• Labor & Immigration with Dr. Philip Martin.

For busy professionals, that flexibility matters. On-demand content makes it easier to access credible information when schedules are full and the pace of decision-making does not slow down.

Why PSA members should pay attention

For PSA members, resources like these are valuable because they extend beyond a single crop or company. Seed industry leaders, producers, and allied professionals all benefit from understanding the larger economic and policy environment that influences production costs, workforce planning, and market strategy. Educational programs from trusted organizations help strengthen the entire agricultural ecosystem by creating better-informed decision-makers.
