NAMA Presentations Available Online
If you attended the NAMA Agribusiness Forum recently, the presentations that were recorded are now available online, including presenter slides. I’d tell you how to access them for free but I think Eldon would kill me. If you did attend then contact the NAMA office to obtain your coupon code for complimentary access. It’s just another benefit of attending.
Broadcasters at NAMA/NAFB Overlap Sessions
At the close of the NAMA Agribusiness Forum farm broadcasters were in attendance with an afternoon session that overlapped with the NAFB Convention.
Here’s a few of the broadcasters who showed up at the Hyatt Crown Center. It’s one of the first times I’ve seen a mult box at a NAMA session.
Hopefully we’ll see it again next year? If you attended these sessions how do you think it went? Was it a good idea to have a joint afternoon session?

Agribusiness Forum Starts Today
It’s time for the NAMA Agribusiness Forum. I’ll be the NAMA blogger once again this year but don’t arrive until tomorrow.
In case you missed a recent ZimmCast with the Chairman of this year’s conference you can still find it.
It’s going to be a good program and once again overlaps with the NAFB Convention. Maybe I’ll see you there.
