SUMMARY:Annie’s Project Showcase: The Gateway to Farm Viability and Sustainability through Education\, Resources and Networking
DESCRIPTION:Presenters:\nDoolarie Singh-Knights\, WV Annie’s Project Coordinator\, Professor and Extension Specialist\, Agribusiness Economics and Management West Virginia University and Emily Morrow\, Extension Agent – Agriculture & Natural Resources\, West Virginia University\, and other WV Annie’s Project Facilitators \nOver the last decade\, West Virginia (WV) has seen a growth in the number of female farm owners\, operators and/or farm partners. This trend has changed the status quo of extension programming in WV\, pointing to the need for increasingly diverse and multi-functional extension risk management programs that create a more proactive educational model to help traditional producers and the growing cadre of female agripreneurs. \nIn 2012\, we started the WV Annie’s Project\, a multi-prong approach to helping our growing clientele of farm women develop the requisite skills and attitudes to become better business owners\, operators and/or farm-partners\, and to help them build profitable\, viable and sustainable women-led agribusinesses. Our program focused on educational and networking opportunities to enhance farm viability through improved business planning and risk management. Our efforts in this program have led to more than 500 graduates; 100 percent of graduates have reported making some tangible improvements to their operations\, and 40 percent have reported profitable and strengthened agribusinesses. The WV Annie’s Program has also ‘inspired’ two additional programs in WV\, namely ‘The WV Agritourism Initiative’ and ‘The WV Women in Agriculture Conference’. \nIn this showcase\, we will feature ‘Voices from the Field’\, as we hear from several Annie’s Project graduates on how these programs has benefited their operation and their quality of life and how Annie’s Project has served as a ‘gateway’ to them participating in our ‘Annie’s Inspired’ other Extension programs. \nAfter registering\, you will receive a confirmation email containing information about joining the webinar.

SUMMARY:Code Red: Contingency Planning Tool for Your Farm or Business
DESCRIPTION:An Annie’s Project Showcase\nThe Annie’s Project Showcase highlights the work of Annie’s Project programming across the United States and U.S. Territories. During each session\, participants will experience a sample of information\, topics\, and education that are covered in actual Annie’s classes. These webinars are FREE for anyone to attend and will also be recorded and made available for viewing by the public post-webinar. \nLearn how you can prevent a code red situation for your family\, business or farm operation by having a completed Code Red plan. This tool developed by the Purdue Women in Agriculture Team is a must-have tool for every family\, business\, and farm operation. The tool includes important information such as passwords\, bank account information\, rental agreements\, insurance papers and power of attorney documents\, and much more in one easy location. After completing the Code Red plan\, it should become the “go to” tool if something happens to a key member of the management team. We hope this tool will help farm families turn a code red situation into a code green and the business can continue to operate on a daily basis. Code Red also can be a tool that helps families get motivated to get started on estate and/or succession planning. To date over 1500 code red flash drives have been distributed and it has been downloaded over 100 times from the website. \nPresenters: Jenna Nees\, Purdue Extension Educator – Putnam County & Purdue Women in Agriculture Team Chair and Kelly Heckaman\, Purdue Extension Area Director \nPlease register in advance for this webinar. \nREGISTER\nAfter registering\, you will receive a confirmation email containing information about joining the webinar.

In 2004\, the very first Annie’s Project courses in Iowa were taught with computer lab access and introduced financial software and other new computer concepts. Nineteen years and 127 Annie’s Project courses later\, the Iowa farm management team is still introducing new computer concepts. Our newest lesson is on staying financially secure in the world of cyber.\nWith increased reliance on sharing personal data through a variety of online platforms\, farm and agricultural business managers are asking how their data is being protected by other businesses and how they can secure their own data. \nIn this webinar\, we’ll take you through some practical steps and best practices you can apply to prepare for cybersecurity threats. You’ll increase your cybersecurity literacy and gain skills to proactively manage your cyber ecosystem to reduce the risk of economic losses. We’ll show you how you can reduce the risk of production disruptions\, lost or mismanaged decision-making data\, identity theft\, malware attacks\, and physical system failures. \nPresenters: Madeline Schultz\, Women in Ag Program Manager; and Alexis Stevens\, Farm Management Specialist; at Iowa State University Extension and Outreach \nThe Annie’s Project Showcase highlights the work of Annie’s Project programming across the United States and U.S. Territories.
