(Atlantic) Cass County Extension is hosting a Farmland Leasing Arrangements Meeting in August.
Cass County Extension Director Kate Olson said the meeting will be held on August 6th at 6:30 p.m. The meeting will address questions that landowners, tenants or other interested individuals have about leasing farmland. Core topics of the 2020 program will be land values and cash rent trends, cost of production, methods for determining a fair rental rate, the latest legal updates that impact farm leases and land ownership, and communication between tenants or landlords.
“Just want to let folks know that they do need to pre-register for that meeting. There is a cost to attend the meeting; $20 for individuals or $30 for couples that share a book. That does come with a 100 page leasing meeting informational book that we usually hand out at those meetings,” said Olson.
To allow for social distancing at the meeting location, pre-registrations are required by Tuesday August 4th. For more information, call the Cass County Extension Office at 712-243-1132.
