Mid-Winter Meeting Wrap-Up
The Farm Agents Council (FAC) hosted the 93rd Annual Mid-Winter Meeting on February 2-3 at a new location for us, the Embassy Suites in Peoria, IL. The new location and hot topics brought in a record attendance of over 170 people for the event.
The FAC Board puts together two great days of education, networking, tradeshow, collaboration, food, drinks and of course, fun. Attendees had the opportunity to earn six hours of Illinois continuing education, specific to this network which included topics on weather and trends; equipment breakdown, E&O Crop Risk Management and legislative issues.

But you don’t have to take our word for it, over half the attendees rated the event as excellent. Long time FAC member Randy Fergurson had the following to say about the event, “Good people with common concerns. I always leave with information that will help in operation of agency.” If you are in the crop/ag/farm industry you will want to mark your calendar for our next upcoming events and think about joining the Farm Agents Council.
Thank you to everyone who participated in the event! We look forward to seeing you later this Summer. If you are interested in getting involved with the FAC or learning more about our organization, please reach out to farmagents@iiaofil.org.
