How Mediation Can Help Farmers

May 20, 2020 @ 12:00 pm - 1:00 pm CDT

Word cloud of stress and mental health and cognition

Summary: Farming is a livelihood and a tradition for many families. It has its rewards, but also its unique risks and pressures. Those may stem from the markets, the weather, financial arrangements, family, neighbors, government regulations and more. Conflicts that arise when farming and its support systems fail to mesh add to the stress. How farmers resolve those conflicts can play a role in reducing stress. Learn how mediation engages farmers in problem solving that can meet their needs and make the world more manageable.

Intended audience: Farmers and organizations that work with farmers.
