Talking about estate planning is often difficult and implementing an estate plan even harder. For farmers the situation is even more complex, because there isn’t a distinct moment when they walk out the door to retirement as do people who retire from other careers. This makes it important for farm families to think about how to transition the farm business to the next generation duirng a lifetime and to put an estate plan in place.
“Evaluating Your Estate Plan” is a one-day Iowa State University Extension and Outreach workshop that will be held at five Iowa locations during February. The workshop will provide farm families and others with information about estate planning options.
