Ready to grow your farm operation, but unsure how to acquire more land?
During the Farmland for the Next Generation program hear from industry representatives, farmers, and extension personnel as they prepare you for your future land acquisitions.
Farmland for the Next Generation is an interactive program series that addresses three paths to land access: leasing, purchasing, and receiving land through inheritance or gift. It uses a skills-based approached that focuses on what people need to be able to do, not just on what they need to know. This 4-session virtual workshop series will be offered on Monday evenings from Nov. to 28 from 6:30 to 8:30 p.m. Eastern.
Industry representatives, farmers, and Purdue Extension Educators will be presenting a variety of topics throughout the four sessions that will help prepare you for future land acquisitions. Some of the topics they will cover include:
- Financial Readiness
- Paths to Land Access
- Finding Farmland
- Assessing Farmland Suitability
- Success Stories
This curriculum was created by the American Farmland Trust, supported by a four-year Educational Enhancement grant from the USDA Beginning Farmer and Rancher Development program.
