Managing Excellence in Agriculture 2010!

Whether you’re the head of a large farming corporation or the successor of a small family farm, the Canadian Farm Business Management Council (CFBMC) created an event ideal for you. Our 2010 Managing Excellence in Agriculture Conference focused on the different management styles of large versus small farms.  We truly believe the size of your farm is not what measures your success.  The management styles you use and staying informed of new agricultural ideas will keep you on the road to success. 

By attending this conference, producers had the chance to listen and learn from experts in the industry, share their knowledge with others, and return to their farming operation with new ideas to better manage their farm.  Consultants and Industry Stakeholders had the opportunity to network with other experts in agriculture, talk with farmers themselves, and gather a variety of new information and ideas regarding farm management. 

Through Managing Excellence in Agriculture 2010 different management skills, of both large and small farms, were presented, along with awareness to where the economy is at now and where it’s going, to help you choose the management style that is best suited for your farm and the future success of your farm. 

Our opening keynote speaker Dr. Lowell Catlett, an economist and futurist, presented a take on agriculture that entertained and educated everyone, whatever your connection to agriculture. 

The conference was held February 3rd to 5th, 2010 at the Sheraton Cavalier Saskatoon, Saskatchewan.
