The result of a couple years of negative income may leave you wondering how to make some changes. Should you change your cropping mix, expand a livestock operation, or consider a transition from farming, especially if you’re nearing retirement? Those are all significant questions that deserve close scrutiny and careful consideration. And I think a great resource to help guide you is our Kansas Ag Mediation Service (KAMS).
KAMS is really a variety of services including mediation, financial counseling, legal assistance, and farm and ranch succession. KAMS works with financial analysts from the K-State Research and Extension farm analyst program, Kansas Legal Services attorneys and certified mediators to better aid the agricultural community of Kansas.
