The University Extension will host a Missouri Farm Lease Program on Thursday, Sept. 17.
The program will be offered online via Zoom from 6 to 9 p.m. Pre-registration is required by Sept. 16. There is no cost to participate.
“Farm leases are a popular topic given common current cash rent, current levels and volatile crop prices,” ag business specialist Mary Sobba said. “Landlords and tenants need to understand the terms and expectations to develop a satisfactory agreement for both parties.”
Topics to be discussed during the class include current cash rents in Missouri and trends, items to include in a lease, terminating a farm lease (when and how to do it legally), recreational (hunting) leases and crop share arrangements (keeping them fair for both sides).
Staff from the University of Missouri Extension will teach the program, including a team of ag business specialists who have worked with both tenants and landlords for many years. The program will be presented by distance learning so the audience can see and interact with all the instructors.
A flyer with class fee information is available from the Caldwell County Extension Center at 816-586-1010 or by e-mail at [email protected]. Registration can be done through the Caldwell County Extension Center or via online https://extension2.missouri.edu/events/missouri-farm-leases-1599148019
