Lease Workshops |

Program Description
Price volatility
in recent years, particularly in the grain markets, has led to
difficulties for landlords and tenants to successfully determine
and negotiate appropriate rental arrangements. This series of
day-long workshops is being offered throughout Kansas to help
landlords and tenants manage the risk associated with rental
arrangements. Each workshop will be comprised of four parts. The
first part will help participants better understand different
rental arrangements, including cash rent, share rent, and the
recently popular flex-rent arrangement, where rental rates can
“flex” depending on changes in prices, yields, or both. The
second part will include a discussion of ethics of leasing. The
third section will provide computer training in using Excel
spreadsheets. Finally, participants will be introduced to
examples of alternative leasing scenarios and a decision-making
tool,
KSU-Lease,
will be demonstrated. Participants will then have the
opportunity to sharpen their skills via hands-on computer
application sessions |
