AgCountry Farm Credit Services, Farm Credit Services of America (FCSAmerica), and Frontier Farm Credit sponsor a webinar series, Two Economists and a Lender. Our September installment featured Agriculture Economic Insights (AEI) co-founders David Widmar and Brent Gloy and Seth Appelgate, developing markets officer. The webinar recording from September 17 is available.


When margins tighten, cutting costs feels necessary—but the wrong cuts can do more harm than good. In this session, our experts focused on where you can still protect margin this year, where changes may not pay off, and how to make disciplined decisions without sacrificing long-term productivity.

Our previous webinar recordings are available on-demand. Check out other related videos.
