Nebraska farm and ranch families are invited to attend a free educational workshop
focused on succession and estate planning. Hosted by the Nebraska Rural Response
Hotline in collaboration with the Nebraska Department of Agriculture's Beginning
Farmer Tax Credit and Negotiations Programs, Nebraska Extension, and the Nebraska
Farmers Union Foundation, these workshops are designed to help producers prepare for
the future of their operations.
The Farm & Ranch Succession Workshop will take place Mar. 11 in Curtis from 1 pm to
5 pm at Nebraska College of Technical Agriculture Welcome Center (610 E 6th Street).
Speakers include Weston Svoboda, and Jessica Groskopf. This workshop will cover:
* Estate and succession planning: key considerations, decisions, and available
tools
* Transfer, death, and tax implications including portability
* The use of LLCs in succession planning: buy-sell agreements and asset protection
* Options, lease rights, and preemptive rights
* Finance and management issues in succession strategies
Refreshments for this event will be provided by the Nebraska College of Technical
Agriculture.
"This workshop is intended to help farm and ranch families start, continue, or
refine their succession and estate plans," said Jessica Groskopf. "Planning for the
future ensures a smooth transition to the next generation and protects the legacy of
Nebraska's agricultural producers."
While the workshop is free, we kindly ask that you register ahead of time to help us
prepare refreshments and materials. To register or for more information, please
