Ag 101: New service – Farm Link Montana – teaches the farming and ranching business

New farmers and ranchers face numerous challenges when getting an operation off the ground and into the field.

Finding land for lease or purchase, securing financing and accessing markets are just a few of the necessities agricultural industry newcomers must learn. A new service, called Farm Link Montana http://farmlinkmontana.org/ , is looking to become a one-stop shop for help with those challenges.

"We’d hear from a lot of beginning farmers that knew these resources were out there, but didn?t know how to track them down," said Annie Heuscher, program director for Community Food & Agriculture Coalition http://www.missoulacfac.org/ in Missoula. "There are so many resources out there and we wanted to create something user friendly and Montana specific."
