Traditionally, the professional farm manager has been most used by absentee landowners, widowed landowners and property owners for investment purposes. Today however, full-time farmers may benefit as well.

Since everyone has different reasons for owning land, their management objectives will differ. Our management representatives will sit down with you to discuss your specific objectives and outline a workable management plan to achieve those objectives. These plans may include landlord tenant arrangements, cash rental agreements, customer farming operations and others. These farming plans can then be put into a crop and livestock plan showing cash requirements, cash budgets and income projections.

In carrying out the annual plan, your management professional can work with you to:

• Prepare and service farm leases and agreements
• Collect rent or proceeds
• Arrangements for capital improvements and repairs
• Supervise the purchase of production inputs
• Crop rotations, chemical and pest management
• Knowledge and experience in commodity markets
• Access to market advisory services
• Frequent farm visits
• Monthly and annual financial statements
