The Kansas Farm Management Association (KFMA) is one of the largest farm management programs in the U.S.  Twenty Association Economists, who are faculty members in the Department of Agricultural Economics, comprise the professional staff of the KFMA program.  The Economists work cooperatively with farm families to provide members with  production and financial management information for use in decision making.

The primary goal of the KFMA program is to provide each member with information that can be used to help make farm and family decisions. Through on-farm visits, whole-farm analysis, enterprise analysis, and other educational programs, the Association Economists assist producers in:

• developing sound farm accounting systems

• improving decision making

• comparing performance with similar farms

• integrating tax planning, marketing and asset investment strategies

The Kansas Farm Management Association Program is organized into six regional associations.  The K-MAR -105 Association serves as the central information processing unit for the six Associations.  K-MAR-105 maintains data banks that are used extensively for Agricultural Economics Research and Extension activities.
