11th Annual Mid-South Agricultural & Environmental Law Conference
Hosted by the National Agricultural Law Center
June 6-7, 2024
Memphis, Tennessee
University of Memphis Cecil C. Humphreys School of Law
Agriculture in the Mid-South is uniquely impacted by changes and developments in state, federal, and international laws and policies. This program is part of a long-term effort to provide relevant and timely agricultural and environmental legal research and information to attorneys, lenders, accountants, tax consultants, students and other agricultural professionals involved in the agricultural industries in the southern U.S. The goal is to provide resources in the form of presentations and content, as well as to foster dialogue about the range of agricultural, food, and environmental law issues for the Mid-South agricultural community. Additionally, on the evening before (June 6th) conference attendees are invited to network and visit with colleagues as we host a “Beer and BBQ” reception at Rendezvous, a Memphis icon.
This conference will take place in person in Memphis, Tennessee, but will also be live streamed online for attendees who are unable to attend in person. It will feature 6 hours of continuing education, including an hour of ethics. Further, for participants who register by May 13th, 3 “bonus hours” of online continuing education will also be included. More information on continuing education credit is available below.
