Journal of the ASFMRA
The Journal of the ASFMRA has long served the ASFMRA membership and agribusiness community by providing the most up-to-date studies, research, practices, and methodologies proposed by the leading academic, management, appraisal and consulting members of our professions.
The ASFMRA Editorial Committee strives to ensure that the articles contained in each issue of the Journal of the ASFMRA represent a good cross-section of what's happening in the various agricultural professions. We are constantly searching for contributors of papers that discuss recent research projects, new and/or revised farm management practices, new and/or updated appraisal methodologies and techniques, review appraisal methods, and new and/or updated agricultural consulting practices. Our authors span a broad range from university professors and students to practicing appraisers, managers and consultants, with occasional papers from professionals outside of the agricultural community but with relevance and important information that can make a difference in what we say and do.
We would personally like to encourage you, if you've been involved in research projects or case studies, to share your knowledge and experience with the rest of us in the agricultural professions. We challenge you to join our highly acclaimed group of published authors by sharing your experiences and wisdom. If you have encountered an unusual problem or situation that required original and unique thinking to develop a workable solution, send us a manuscript to be reviewed for publication in the Journal of the ASFMRA.
FMRA News
The ASFMRA also publishes a bi-monthly newsletter which provides members and other agricultural professionals with current information relative to the industry and educational offerings. This publication also keeps members informed about government legislation, career opportunities, activities and news within the American Society and provides regular membership updates.
