Referral Network
Welcome to the future site of Land Link Montana's referral network. The purpose will be to help landowners and beginning farmers and ranchers pull together the appropriate resources to assist them with the many layers of exiting or entering an agricultural operation. Land Link Montana will not try to be the expert service on all-things-agriculture. Fortunately, many resources already exist, and we will list them here, as well as direct Land Link Montana participants to the services that best fit their individual needs.

 

Beginning farmers and ranchers may need professional guidance for:

  • Business planning and formation,
  • Loans and financing,
  • Lease, share-crop, and buy-sell arrangements,
  • Marketing strategies,
  • Production systems.

Retiring farmers and ranchers might need expertise in the following areas:

  • Estate planning,
  • Lease, share-crop, and buy-sell arrangements,
  • Retirement planning,
  • Conservation strategies and funding sources.

Non-farming landowners mighthave questions around:

  • Agricultural and legal issues,
  • Lease, share-crop, and buy-sell arrangements,
  • Estate & retirement planning,
  • Conservation strategies and funding sources.

If you or your organization offers such expertise, resources or services, please contact us, so we can add you to the list and direct interested folks your way. Also, if you know of other areas we should include, please let us know; the above lists are far from exhaustive.
