Landowners and farmers can learn more about the various tools, trends, and legal protections available with farmland leasing by participating in the Purdue University Extension virtual workshop, "Digging Deeper Into Land Leases." Many times lease terms must be negotiated that match expectations for both landlords and tenants. The current volatility of ag inputs is another factor in discussions between the involved parties.
