Join Illinois Farmers Union for this special one-day event on farm succession planning. Whether you’re planning for your farm’s legacy or looking to establish your roots, this event will help you navigate the challenges in succession planning from all angles. Participate in hands-on workshops designed to address specific challenges faced by family farmers:
Legal Considerations: understand the legal frameworks involved in succession planning such as wills and trusts, and the relevant laws and regulations that may affect the transfer of ownership and assets.
Estate Planning and Tax Strategies: learn how to pick the best transfer and asset protection tools for your situation in order to minimize tax liabilities
Family Communication and Conflict Resolution: learn the best practices for facilitating effective communication, how to address potential conflicts, and how to foster a collaborative approach to decision-making.
Conservation Options: your farmland is more than a business; land protection and estate planning go hand-in-hand. Learn about the various land protection options that can be integrated into your estate planning process.
