2016-10-3: Dates for Executive Women in Agriculture conference announced

Monday, October 3rd 2016

Women producers in agriculture from across the nation will gather Nov. 30 – Dec. 2 for the sixth annual Executive Women in Agriculture (EWA) Conference. Held at the Palmer House Hilton in Chicago, Ill., this conference is the industry’s premier event for farm women and those involved with agriculture. With endless opportunities and challenges in farming today, the need to provide education on farm business practices has never been greater. The conference’s content is geared toward female farmers who serve at the managers of record keeping, financial reporting, marketing and human resources, as well as production and technology execution on their operations. This year, EWA will focus on turning obstacles into opportunities and introduce speakers who will provide cutting-edge business education that challenges, inspires, and teaches attendees how to prosper in any market environment, regardless of what they raise or produce. EWA is a wonderful opportunity for women to network with 250 peers from 28 states and Canada, be inspired by dynamic speakers, develop your leadership skills and take home a tactical to-do list to improve your operation. For the first time, EWA is offering a pre-event reception to kick start the event with networking with each other and sponsors.
