Farm Credit Services of America (FCSAmerica) and Frontier Farm Credit are co-sponsoring a webinar series, Two Economists and a Lender. Our February installment featured Agriculture Economic Insights (AEI) co-founders David Widmar and Brent Gloy and Dustin Jahraus, insurance services officer. The webinar recording from February 24 is available. 

With the 2022 ARC versus PLC decision looming, we reviewed the basics of the programs, current conditions and key considerations. We also discussed the recent trend in ad hoc program spending, rising production costs and perspectives on the next Farm Bill.
