National Farmers Union’s Beginning Farmer Institute, a free farm business management program structured around The Resilerator, a comprehensive 10-week course designed to improve farm and ranch business resiliency, is accepting applications.
From October to December, participants will have weekly online trainings led by farm business management experts and engage in peer-to-peer learning.
Participants who complete all necessary course requirements will be considered for an additional in-person session the following spring, to include additional trainings, farm tours, and networking opportunities with Farmers Union leadership.
The Beginning Farmer Institute is open to any U.S. producer over 18. Applicants currently must be farming or ranching in a for-profit operation.
Operations of any size and type may apply. Applicants do not have to be the owner of the operation, but must be considered a key decisionmaker.
Applications will be accepted until July 1, 2025.
