ASTA’s 2024 FCSC to Discuss Weather Change Implications

  • On August 28, 2024

ASTA’s Field Crop Seed Convention (FCSC) schedule has something for everyone! In a special session titled “Weather or Not? Managing Unpredictability from Extreme Weather Events,” the ever-changing dynamics of weather patterns, and the implications that unpredictability has for farmers, will be addressed by ag commodities expert Shawn Hackett who will present his findings and research to the session.

Shawn Hackett has dedicated his life to educating ag industry leaders and farmers about financial risk management, hedging and the utility of indicator-based ag commodity price forecasting tools. His extensive research on long-term cycles and statistics on climate, currencies, geopolitics, and global capital flows have long been a key differentiating factor for Shawn’s price forecasting skills. Shawn takes complicated concepts and presents them in an easily digestible framework to a wide audience and discusses them regularly in his subscriber-based Hackett Agricultural Report and Hackett Dairy Report.

Register today to join this session, and many others, in Orlando, FL December 10-13.
