Farm Stress Management
Taking care of crops and animals is hard on farmers and agribusiness professionals. Caring for your own health and wellness in this high-stress profession is often overlooked but is just as critical as caring for your farm business.
The Clemson Extension Agribusiness Team is working with South Carolina's agricultural community to provide the resources and evidence-based education necessary to support the mental health needs of our farmers and agribusiness professionals.
Bring a Mental Health Workshop to Your Community
Thanks to the generous support of South Carolina Farm Bureau, the Clemson Extension Agribusiness Team is able to provide in-person workshops or presentations on farm stress and mental health. If you are interested in hosting a workshop or having someone provide a time-sensitive presentation as part of an already planned meeting or workshop please contact Dr. Adam Kantrovich at akantro@clemson.edu or 803-788-5700.
