| PROJECT SUMMARY |
Personnel management is critical for many Texas High Plains and Oklahoma Panhandle agribusinesses. They are continually having problems with a vast array of personnel management issues such as; recruitment, retention, termination, legal considerations, communication, generational differences, and diverse employee cultural backgrounds. The project objective is to present a two-day conference to assist agribusinesses to become better equipped to deal with personnel management issues they face daily.
While conference participation is open to all agribusinesses, commercial farming and ranching operations, cattle and swine Confined Animal Feeding Operations (CAFO) and dairy operations will be specifically targeted. The project will be evaluated by the number of participants registered and the knowledge gained from attending the conference. A six-month post-workshop survey is planned to determine the level of implementation of personnel management techniques learned.
