Professionals
from Farmers National Company will present information on the following key topics:
Financial Keys for Farmland in Your
Portfolio
There
are several key elements to examine when considering farmland as part of your
portfolio. We will also discuss how to retain land and pass it to the next
generation.
Key Indicators for Commodity Price
Direction
Will
commodity prices remain at historically high levels through 2008? We have all
heard the old saying that "high prices cure high prices". Is that the
case again this year, or has demand grown too much for production to keep pace
and still provide adequate inventory? We will share our views on where we feel
prices are headed in 2008.
Comparing the Profit Potential of
Alternative Lease Types
A
comparison of the most popular leasing methods. We'll explore studies of cash
rent, crop share, custom, as well as the newest lease types.
The Keys to Managing a Cash Rent
Lease
In
today's rapidly changing business of agriculture, diligent management of a cash
rent farm is even more critical to long-term landownership success. This
presentation will point out the key components of a successful cash rent
management strategy for landowners.
Will the New Farm Bill Secure Profitability?
Alternative
sources for energy and ethanol are just two key issues addressed in the new
farm bill. These opportunities have created changes in the farm economy the
past few years. How will the new farm bill affect these opportunities in the
future?
Key Improvements to Consider in 2008
We'll
analyze how improvements like tile, grain bins, or adding a center pivot will
enhance the value of your farm and improve the return on your investment.
Keys to the Farm and Ranch Real
Estate Market
A look
at what the keys to the farm and ranch real estate market have been over the
last 12 to 24 months and what the key influences will be as we look forward.
Why have we seen land values almost double in some areas, while other areas
have much more moderate increases? We will explore factors that indicate the
potential for values to decrease while other factors point to continued strong
markets.
Profit Opportunities for the Future
A look
at new and emerging opportunities to add income from your farm. We'll explore
wind energy, biofuels, recreation, and more!
