National Conference

DoubleTree by Hilton Nashville Downtown
315 Fourth Avenue North, Nashville, TN 37219
Call for Concurrent Session and Poster Presentations
Proposals due by Friday, January 17, 2025
The 2025 ERME National Conference will bring together public and private sector educators, crop insurance agents, lenders, and other agricultural professionals to share ongoing and emerging successful risk management education efforts that target agricultural producers and their families. Conference participants will learn about what is working to help producers effectively manage the financial, production, marketing, legal and human risks associated with their agribusinesses. This conference will be held April 1-3, 2025 in Nashville, TN.
Concurrent Session and Poster Proposals
Concurrent Session and Poster Presentation proposals are being solicited which highlight successful and innovative risk management education programming and its impacts. Abstract submission is encouraged from any public or private entity involved in risk management education for agricultural producers, regardless of whether the project was funded through a regional ERME Center.
Presentations should be geared toward educators (rather than producers) and should identify impacts achieved as a result of the educational efforts. Abstracts that include research as a major emphasis will not likely be considered for this conference.

Registration will be open in December.
