Upcoming Farm Management Events from ISU Extension and Outreach
2021 Farmland Leasing Meetings
During July and August, leasing meetings will be held throughout Iowa at various locations. These leasing programs are an annual event to share educational resources related to Iowa farmland ownership and tenancy with Iowa farmland owners, tenants, and others involved in agricultural production in the state. Each workshop attendee will receive a booklet of reference materials for farm leasing arrangements. Workshops will last 2 1/2 - 3 hours and will be led by Iowa State University Extension and Outreach farm management specialists. The 2021 meetings will focus on trends in land values, rental rates and issues impacting rental rates for the next year in Iowa agriculture. VIRTUAL OPTIONS WILL ALSO BE AVAILABLE!
Meeting dates and locations are currently being finalized, check back soon for locations near you! For questions, contact your ISU Extension and Outreach Farm Management Specialist. On-line leasing resources from ISU Extension and Outreach can be found on the Ag Decision Maker Leasing webpage.
