Nebraska Women in Agriculture, in collaboration with the University of Nebraska–Lincoln’s Center for Agricultural Profitability, is excited to announce a hybrid offering of Know Your Numbers, Know Your Options course in March 2026.
This four-part financial management course is designed to help farmers and ranchers better understand their current financial position and evaluate how major decisions, such as large purchases, new leases, or changes in production, can impact the bottom line.
Participants will complete the course through self-paced online modules featuring pre-recorded videos, guided assignments, and hands-on work with the financial statements of a case study farm. To enhance the learning experience, live Zoom discussions will be held Tuesdays from Noon–1 p.m. CT on March 10, 17, 24, and 31. These interactive sessions provide an opportunity to ask questions, discuss concepts, and connect with instructors and fellow producers. Participants who want to engage in the Zoom discussions are encouraged to register no later than March 6.
By the end of the course, participants will be better equipped to use financial records to guide decision-making and confidently discuss their operation’s financial position with family members, business partners, and lenders.
The course fee is $160 per participant. Participants seeking to qualify for USDA FSA Borrower Training or Nebraska Department of Agriculture (NDA) Tax Credit training may register for $300 per participant.
