2016 Western Ag Industry Survey

On behalf of the Western Extension Committee we invite your participation in the following project if you are involved with the agricultural industry in the 13 western states. We recognize you might be receiving this email from more than one organization and apologize in advance for any cross postings. Please feel free to distribute to your producer and colleague groups. Thank you ~ 2016 Western Ag Industry Survey We invite you to participate in a project to learn more about risk conditions in the Western Ag Industry. It has been developed by members of the Western Extension Committee located at Land Grant Universities across the 13 Western states. Your answers will be kept confidential and will only be released as summaries in which you will not be identified. We estimate it will take about 10 minutes to complete the survey. Your participation is voluntary. However, you can help us a great deal by sharing your perspective. If you prefer not to respond to a specific question, please omit it and move on. Survey questions are intended to include perspectives from a broad cross-section of individuals across the agricultural industry. As such, some questions are worded as “you” and “your” with the intent that you provide responses from your personal perspective. Elsewhere, questions include the wording “in your area” with the intent that you provide responses for your local area. In some cases this may be the state where you work, the local region or county, or the location of one or more farm operations you are involved in. Survey results will be made available free of charge in an electronic format once the data have been compiled at http://wec.farmmanagement.org.

Thank you in advance for your help with this project, Members of the Western Extension Committee wec@farmmanagement.org 307.766.2166
