HMI Drought Mitigation Workshop

Title: HMI Drought Mitigation Workshop
Location: Corpus Christi, TX
Event Link: Click here
Description: Drought is a consistent state of the environment in Texas, particularly the South Central Valley and Gulf Coast Regions. As an organization that is committed to the health of the land, HMI Texas believes it is important to educate landowners about how they can prepare, manage through, and recover from drought. Farm Aid is also dedicated to helping landowners remain sustainable through drought conditions and we are privileged to have their financial support and partnership in this endeavor.

Holistic Management is a decision-making framework that requires landowners to plan far in advance for events that can potentially affect their land and agricultural operation. Because holistic managers are continually monitoring their progress, evaluating their results, and revising their strategy accordingly, they are by design better prepared to face, manage, and recover from drought with sustainable operation.

This workshop will be held June 23-24, 2010 in Corpus Christi, TX. The cost for the entire two-day event (including lunch) is $200. Add a second person from your organization and they’ll pay only $100. The information in this workshop is desperately needed by many producers so we are making this course available for less than $75 per person a day. Class size is limited- SIGN UP TODAY!
