As the organic sector grows, more producers are transitioning their farm operations to organic. What motivates them? What are their major challenges during transition? And what resources would help support their transition?

This webinar will present the results of a national survey of producers in transition or recently transitioned to organic, answering these key questions and looking at other strategies to help farmers.

This webinar is presented in partnership with the USDA Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) – Science and Technology National Technology Support Centers.
