Essentials in Farm Transition Planning

Aug. 19 ~ 7 p.m. to 8:30 p.m.

If you were unable to farm, for any reason, what would happen to your operation? Does everyone in your farm family agree about how to proceed? Don’t let your worries keep you from making the decisions and having the necessary conversations to ensure your goals for the farm are achieved.
This short session is developed for farm families ready to build a seamless transition for the operation to the next generation.

Join Ohio Farm Bureau, Nationwide and Wright and Moore Law for a live,
interactive townhall and get the answers to your questions about transitioning
your operation to the next generation.

Essentials in Retirement Planning

Aug. 28 ~ 8 a.m. to 9:30 a.m.

Retirement for farmers is different. And each farmer has a different situation.

  • Do you have kids that want the farm?
  • Do you or your spouse have an off farm job with a 401k or pension?
  • Do you want to stay active on the farm or move to Florida?
  • Should you invest cash in retirement or buy more land and equipment?
  • When do I start planning? And when is it too late?
  • Is selling my farm the best retirement strategy?
  • Will land renting be enough to cover my expenses in retirement?

Join Ohio Farm Bureau and Nationwide Financial for a live, interactive townhall
and get the answers to your questions about retirement.

Essentials in Financial Risk Management

Sept. 3 ~ 7 p.m. to 8:30 p.m.

Developed for beginning, new, or evolving operations, this short session can
help point you in the right direction. Join Ohio Farm Bureau, Farm Credit Mid America and Nationwide for a live, interactive townhall and get the answers to your questions about financial risk.

Farm Bureau connections
The issue of property taxation remains as one of the biggest challenges our members face today. Ensuring agricultural property is valued for its agricultural potential and not development is critical to the continued success of Ohio agriculture.

Farm Bureau is what really got the word out. It’s been one of their goals to get this done.

Bringing the farm back to life
Because we are younger farmers just starting out, Farm Bureau has a lot of good opportunities and resources to help us grow in the future.

Farm Bureau involvement
Through the Select Partner program, we became educated in farm insurance and weren't just selling policies. It became more and more clear why farmers need an advocate like Ohio Farm Bureau.

So many of the issues that OFBF and its members are advocating for are important to all Ohioans. I look at OFBF as an agricultural watchdog advocating for farmers and rural communities across Ohio.
