NCAE Opens Registration for 2025 Ag Employer Labor Forum
(Arlington, VA) The National Council of Agricultural Employers (NCAE) announced that early bird registration for the premier event for America’s agricultural employers, the NCAE Ag Employer Labor Forum, is now open. This year’s Forum will take place on December 3-5, 2025, at the beautiful M Resort just outside Las Vegas, Nevada.
NCAE has developed exciting new programming for the 2025 Forum tailored to the needs of and suited for all owners, operators, office managers, personnel managers, service providers, agricultural agents, attorneys and other stakeholders interested in the ag labor industry.
This year’s speakers will feature a diverse range of topics and breakout sessions including the economic outlook for US Farm Labor in 2026, hot legal topics in ag labor, must-knows for Farm Labor Contractors, a clinic for H-2A taxes, best practices for ag labor in the domestic enforcement era, and much more.
Attendees of these stimulating sessions, along with many others throughout the Forum, are eligible to receive continuing education credit from the Society for Human Resource Management (SHRM).
“The political spotlight focused on ag labor in 2025. Likewise, the 2025 Ag Employer Labor Forum is shaping up to be the biggest and best yet,” said Michael Marsh, President and CEO of NCAE. “We are excited for the new engaging activities we have in store and are delighted to extend early bird pricing and a discounted room rate in the NCAE room block to our members and members of the broader agricultural community.”
Early Bird Registration Rates:
- Member: $455
- Non-Member: $560
Sponsorship Opportunities:
NCAE is excited to offer a variety of sponsorship opportunities for organizations looking to support the agricultural community, gain exposure among leaders of the agricultural industry, and connect with the hundreds of in-person ag employers, agents, attorneys and others at who will attend this year’s Forum.
“Last year,” noted Marsh, “NCAE was thrilled to receive record interest in our trade show, resulting in a completely sold-out exhibition space and an extended trade show floor, which also sold-out. Do not delay if you wish to be a part of this incredible event which reaches hundreds of attendees and organizational decision-makers.”
“This year, we are excited to offer a new option for ag community leaders who wish to make a palpable impact on the shape of the 2025 Forum,” explained Susan Lester, NCAE Manager of Association Services. “Event hosts will receive special recognition and promotional thanks prior to and at the Forum. And, in response to last year’s record interest, NCAE has expanded the trade show floor to accommodate even more interested sponsors and arranged a new layout so that all sponsors will get optimal use out of their space.”
Interested parties are encouraged to contact Susan Lester, [email protected], for sponsorship details.
