American Farmland Trust’s Land Transfer Training is designed for practitioners to help farmers or ranchers and agricultural landowners plan for a farm or ranch transition.
Getting Started with Farm or Ranch Transfer is the first of five modules in the training. It covers the basic steps involved in a farm or ranch transfer and prepares participants to engage in a transfer process.
Each module includes materials for practitioners – a teaching plan, student learning plan and a PowerPoint presentation with presenter notes. Modules also include learning materials that practitioners can share with farmers or ranchers and landowners. These include information sheets, activity worksheets, assessment documents and resource lists.
You will find the Getting Started module below in Downloadable Documents.
