This premier event will dive into the economic and trade outlook for 2025, offering forecasts on commodity prices, farm incomes, and market trends. Over 100 experts from government, academia, and industry will discuss the pressing issues facing U.S. agriculture, from global trade dynamics to the impact of climate change on farming practices.
