Insight into the New Year By Tim Hodson

It’s hard to believe that 2019 is nearly over — and 2020 is just around the corner.

A lot has happened in our industry over the last 11 months. The stock market continues to fluctuate on a daily basis, legislators in Washington have finally begun to address immigration reform, the Agriculture Trucking Relief Act and the Farm Workforce Modernization Act and more.

But what’s in store for next year? Where is the economy really headed? What will happen in Washington, and how will the impending legislation impact your business in 2020?

You can find out some of the answers to these questions in GPN’s next webinar, “Outlook 2020: What’s on the Economic and Legislative Horizon in the Coming Year.”

The free webinar will take place from 2 until 3:30 p.m. on Wednesday, Dec. 4.

During the webinar, our industry’s leading economist, Charlie Hall from Texas A&M, along with AmericanHort’s legal eagle Craig Regelbrugge, will examine many of these economic and legislative issues and challenges facing the horticulture industry.

Hall and Regelbrugge will provide participants with their keen insight on what will happen with the U.S. economy as well and what lawmakers will be doing in 2020.

They will examine the up-to-the-minute issues facing growers and retailers and help them make sense of these complicated topics and how they could influence the industry in the coming year.

The webinar is sponsored by Nufarm.
