ISU Extension and Outreach in Clinton County is hosting a farmland leasing meeting on Friday, August 14, at 1 pm to address questions that land owners, tenants, or other interested individuals have about farmland leasing.
The meeting will be held at Buzzy's, 414 Main Street, Welton, IA, and will last about 2 1/2 hours. Similar meetings are being held across Iowa during the month of August.
Attendees will gain understanding of current cash rental rate surveys and factors driving next year's rents such as market trends and input costs. Estimating a cash rental rate is a constant of the farm leasing arrangements meeting. This year's decreased profitability will require landlords and tenants to look closely at 2016 production cost estimates. Attendees will learn about types of leases and results of farmland value surveys. A 100 page workbook will be included with registration that incudes land leasing information such as surveys, sample written lease agreement and termination forms, and many other publications.
Registration is $25 per individual and $40 per couple. An additional $5 fee will be added is registering after August 12, 2015. Pre-register by calling the Clinton County Extension and Outreach Office at 563-659-5125. Registration form is available here.
