BOWLING GREEN, Mo. – If you’ve been thinking about getting into farming, University of Missouri Extension’s upcoming “Jump-Start Your Farm” webinar will help you gain insight into what to do before purchasing a farm property or starting an agricultural-related business, says horticulture specialist Justin Keay. The webinar is 6-7:30 p.m. Tuesday, Nov. 19.

“Lots of people dream of owning a small farm and starting a farm business but aren’t sure where to get started or if farming is right for them,” Keay says. “This webinar will help you identify important considerations to make before purchasing a farm property or starting a farm business.”

The webinar will cover where to buy a farm, developing a realistic business plan for a small-acreage farm and MU’s Intel for Ag tool, which helps with identifying sustainable ag enterprises.
