AUBURN, N.Y. — Cayuga County CCE Shop Meetings continue with Matt LeRoux, Extension Associate, Cornell University on Thursday, March 10, 2022 6:30 PM – 8:30 PM **NOTE TIME**
Come on out for a pep talk on revisiting pricing your meat and account for all your costs, especially your time.
Matt will introduce the Cornell Meat Price and Yield Calculator that helps you set prices for each marketing channel in which you sell, to ensure you reach your profit goals. There will also be an Introduction to Meat Suite. This website, https://www.meatsuite.com/, created by Cornell Cooperative Extension Agriculture Educators, is designed to give the consumer a platform to find your farm when sourcing locally raised meats.
Setting your prices can feel like a challenging task. There are many factors to consider including local market, population, and economic conditions and seasonality in demand. Ultimately, pricing must originate with the farm’s costs and profit goals.
Bring you camp chair and come out on Thursday, March 10, 2022 6:30 PM – 8:30 PM.
At Minturn Farm/ Jason Schenck, 5657 Sevior Road, Auburn, NY 13021
