This month Extension Educator Doug Gucker discusses current trends in marketing, how 2018 will treat grain farmers and skills resilient farm managers need.

And to wrap it all up Illinois Extension is back at it again with its Small Farms Winter Webinar Series starting in January. Details and classes here: goo.gl/sDSo7i.
