Learn the basics of how to create, customize and update spreadsheets for your farm business.

Budget and Cash Flow Basics for Farmers
1pm – 4pm Cost: $25
Lead by a financial expert, learn how to create professional budgets and cash flows.  Is it a fixed or variable cost? Will I have enough money to make it through the season? Step by step we will work through the basics of what these documents are and the rules you need to follow to create them so that they represent your farm or planned farm business accurately.  There’s no question too basic in this workshop, the focus is on the basics!
