Project Overview
The objective of the project was to promote the sustainability of Intermountain cattle producers through use of a
comprehensive production strategy and risk assessment program. Producers received training on goal setting, insurance ortions, risk management strategiess and financial enterprise analysis. Producers then received information on marketing and production strategies. To reinforce the tools taught participants practiced risk assessment and enterprise analysis for an example ranch at the end of each production strategy session. This project built on an existing program offered in Wyoming. The project was accomplished through eight, 3-hour, workshop sessions at three Wyoming and two Utah locations during 2011. In addition we provided written and web publications and one-on-one consultation with interested producers. 61 producers attended workshops with and average of 46 producers per workshop. Many of the graduates completed a risk and enterprise analysis for at least two potential opportunities for their own operation.
