Farmland Owners Conference

There is a lot that goes into owning farmland, even if you are not the one working the land. Landowners are invited to this fast-paced, one-day conference to gain a better understanding of how to best manage and maintain their land, work with the tenant and/or farmer, and plan for the future legacy of the land. 

The 2024 Farmland Owners Conference agenda will cover:
  • Negotiating cash rent
  • Understanding current land values and appraisals
  • Soil fertility – protecting your investment
  • Solar energy on your land
  • Maintaining profits while protecting the environment
  • Types of insurance you need for your farm
  • Navigating Farm Service Agency forms and requirements
  • Estate planning
  •  Organic production
  • …and more!
