BLO CK president of the A B A on October 19 at the A B A convention in Atlanta, will be the keynote speaker for the opening conference general session Monday morning. The National A g Conference total program reflects the changing lend ing environment that is prompting bankers to step beyond traditional bounds o f lending in an effort to help farmers who are facing cash flow problems and eroding financial posi tions. The conference consists of a series of general sessions, concurrent workshops and forums, with nearly 60 speakers — government officials, academicians, consultants and ex pert bankers — covering more than 25 major topics that will highlight the new banking trends and services of the ’80s. Topics for concurrent workshops scheduled throughout the confer ence reflect these new trends, with subjects that range from stress management and dealing with the farm customer, new and innovative financing arrangements for land issues, and water and energy issues for agricultural users ... to new tax law implications in leasing. There are 14 concurrent workshops sche duled. Each participant will be able to attend at least three. Other titles include bankruptcy, analyzing complex loans, alternative sources of funds for agricultural lending, how to access and manage risk, agri-business financing, family farms, all-risk crop insurance, and the agricultural credit outlook. Addressing the marketing as pects of agricultural banking, a series of four in-depth discussion forums will focus on: marketing strategies for farm commodities, marketing strategies for agricul tural bank services, computer aids October 18,1982 in bank agricultural lending, and spread and gap analysis for agri cultural banks. Attendees will have an opportuni ty to attend two out of the four discussion forums, which will be of fered twice during the conference program. In tern a tion a lly know n farm broadcaster Orion Samuelson, vice president and agricultural service director for W G N Continental Broadcasting Co., Chicago, will moderate a general session panel discussion on the outlook for agri culture as it applies to livestock and dairy products, feed and food grains, and the international market for grain commodities. In cooperation with the Chicago Board of Trade and the Chicago Mercantile Exchange, two special post conference seminars will be presented Thursday and Friday, November 11 and 12. The day-and-ahalf seminar will provide bankers with an opportunity to better under stand the options available in deal ing with price risk and the uncer tainties in working with farm cus tomers. Attendees will actually visit the Board of Trade and the Mercan tile Exchange to take an in-depth look at futures trading with a special emphasis on the impact that hedged collateral has on agricultural loans.
