The Texas A&M AgriLife Extension Service offers a number of resources on marketing and risk management. Extension agricultural economists regularly conduct half-day to two-day trainings introducing the topic of hedging with futures and options. We have scheduled several two-day Master Marketer workshops focusing on incorporating policy and insurance choices into your 2026 marketing plan.The upcoming workshops are in Wharton (October 22-23), Weslaco (November 12-13), and Wall (January 21-22).

I am also presenting cotton market outlook material in Dawson County (January 6) and at Beltwide in San Antonio (January 8).
