SDSU Extension will host a three-day estate planning and farm succession conference on March 5, 12 and 19, 2024 at the SDSU Extension Watertown Regional Center (1910 W. Kemp Ave., Watertown, SD 57201). Each day begins at 10:00 a.m. and concludes at 4:00 p.m.
No matter the size of your estate, there are wrong, right, and better ways to create a family legacy. Learning about the different methods can help farmers and ranchers create a legacy they are proud of. This legacy includes the transfer of the operation, but also the family relationships they leave behind. The agenda covers many methods used to transfer land and assets to the next generation and pass on personal property. It will also help families set goals – minimize taxes, provide for long-term care and provide equally for heirs while continuing to operate.
This year’s topics include:
- Trusts
- LLC and LLLP
- Long-term care insurance
- Wills and probate
- Funding retirement
- Current and potential tax situations
