DESCRIPTION:Workshop IIIn this second session of the Farm Business Development & Management Workshop Series, participants will learn how to identify and work with professional advisors,
 explore market research strategies, and navigate some of the food safety
 regulations relevant to their operations.Derek
 Simmonds, a Business Development Specialist at Cornell University's College of
 Agriculture and Life Sciences (CALS), will discuss seeking out professional
 advisors and conducting market analysis to refine an agricultural operation's
 focus. Don Stoekel of the Produce Safety Alliance will provide an overview of
 key food safety regulations, with a particular focus on water safety for
 irrigation and processing.While
 designed primarily for beginning and relatively new farmers, this workshop
 series is open to all current and aspiring farmers and ranchers. Over the
 course of the series, participants will cover the essential elements of
 establishing and maintaining a successful farm operation — from conducting
 market research and obtaining licenses to managing cash flow and analyzing
 financial performance. Each 90-minute workshop will feature expert speakers who
 will address the many critical aspects of business development and management.
