Identified Problems:

Soil Degradation:
Many family farmers suffer from depleted soil quality due to intensive agricultural practices, reduced crop yields, and long-term environmental harm.

Lack of Awareness:
There is a significant knowledge gap among farmers regarding the benefits and implementation of regenerative agricultural practices.

Your Approach:

Interactive Workshops and Training Sessions:
Action: Host engaging workshops and training sessions to educate farmers on regenerative agriculture techniques such as crop rotation, cover cropping, and soil health management.
Impact: Achieve a 50% increase in farmer participation and adoption of regenerative practices, leading to improved soil health and productivity.

Organizing Farm Demonstrations:
Action: Conduct on-site farm demonstrations to showcase practical applications of regenerative methods, providing farmers with hands-on experience and confidence to implement changes.
Impact: Demonstrations have led to a 40% increase in farmer interest and willingness to adopt sustainable practices, resulting in better resource management and environmental benefits.

Developing User-Friendly Educational Materials:
Action: Create accessible and easy-to-understand educational materials that highlight the principles and benefits of regenerative agriculture, ensuring information is readily available to all farmers.
Impact: Distribute educational materials that have reached 90% of the local farming community, fostering increased awareness and understanding of sustainable practices.

Your role as a Farming Practices Educator is pivotal in equipping farmers with the skills and knowledge necessary to thrive sustainably during droughts and improve soil health. By promoting regenerative practices, you contribute to long-term environmental and agricultural resilience, driving systemic social change and ensuring a sustainable future for family farming communities. Your efforts will help farmers improve soil health, optimize resource use, and increase crop yields, ultimately creating a more sustainable and prosperous agricultural landscape.

Join us in making a meaningful impact on agriculture and the environment. Together, we can empower farmers and promote sustainable farming practices for generations to come!

Youth About Business teaches business to high school students through hosting a series of team-based Mergers and Acquisitions simulations. Over the course of a week, students will work in teams of 4-5 and assume the roles of the Executive Management of a public company to perform a M&A transaction.

The camp is an intense competition. Many students have very limited exposure to the business world, but gain a great understanding through engaging with a series of speakers, volunteers, and advisors during their camp week.

To win the competition, students must submit a written shareholder report that outlines the details of their transactions.

Reading of Shareholder Reports (Self-Paced)

Volunteers are tasked with reading and scoring shareholder reports submitted from student teams. Each student team is tasked with summarizing their proposed M&A transactions as a report to their shareholders. Volunteers are asked to read a set of reports and assign each report a score based on a grading rubric.

Students will qualify for next rounds and awards based on the quality and scoring of their reports.

Many students have very limited exposure to the business world, so students appreciate the team advisors for helping them understand these very complex cases. Each team advisor will cover a specific part of the transaction process to help demystify business and prepare students for their transactions.

The camp is both an educational opportunity and a competition for the students. Advisors act as both “paid” consultant and teachers during their experience. You should approach your role as advisor as if you are advising a client on the pros and cons of a deal.

Information Technology Session:
The IT volunteer helps a team of 4-5 students consider the implications of technology issues (staffing, systems integration, cost efficiencies, upgrades, etc.) in the merger and acquisition process. The advisor will spend the session helping teams think through the value of their IT and data.

Key concepts covered during this session:
• Company’s perceived role of technology (early adopter vs late entry)
• Reliance on IT for a competitive advantage
• Valuation of intellectual property assets
• Technical resources key to the ongoing operations
• Deal reliance on significant expense reductions based on IT synergies
• Deal reliance on merged or compatible infrastructure
