The first interstate meeting of farm and ranch business management instructors was held in Faribault, Minnesota in 1973. That group continued to meet annually to share ideas and solve problems. The organization was named and the constitution was ratified at Pierre, South Dakota, in 1985. Each conference has workshops, tours and top-notch speakers.
Information is designed to be taken home and put to use.
The annual conference is held in locations throughout the U.S. and Canada. The mission of the National Farm and Ranch Business Management Education Association is to increase the effectiveness of farm and ranch management education by promoting sound educational practices, increasing economic understanding, disseminating practical program information and demonstrating exemplary procedures for educational program management. Each issue is full of useful information chosen from the best current ideas in farm and ranch management education submitted by members. This includes teacher educators, supervisors and planning staff. Associate membership is open to those retired from similar educational activity and other interested people.
