Deciding on a Business Structure Webinar

Business structures can often be one of the simplest tools producers can utilize to limit their business liability.  At the same time, they often confuse those considering adopting one as a tool to utilize in their business.  This webinar will cover business structures from the simplest (sole proprietorship) to the most complex (corporation and cooperative) to better help producers understand how to utilize them in their operations.  Speakers will be Ashley Ellixson and Paul Goeringer, both Extension Legal Specialists with the Department of Agricultural and Resource Economics and partners with the Ag Law Education Initiative.
