Generational Transition Meeting

Join us for a panel discussion between Nebraska ranchers and Pam Olsen, estate planning attorney. Ask questions to ranchers and professionals to help guide your future plans

Several respected Nebraska ranchers and farmers have agreed to share their experiences with generational transitions at upcoming meetings. Learn from this panel of producers, who have experienced transitions, each in their own way.  The panel will discuss what worked and what did not work for their operations and families.  An experienced attorney will also cover helpful legal tools to transition your farm or ranch to the next generation.
