With 2015 behind us and an anything but average start to
2016, we need to remember that we can’t always predict what the calendar will
bring. If our current weather pattern has proven anything, it’s that anything
can happen. And it’s with this in mind
that we here at Yankee Farm Credit want to highlight some resources to help
alleviate the challenges, manage stress, help mitigate the struggles and prepare for the unforeseen
and unknown.
In June of 2009 we posted a list of available hotlines and resources. As the agriculture atmosphere changes we wanted to add some updates, as well as some news links and stories from here and abroad.
