“70% of family farms will change hands over the next 15 years.” - USDA
Many of these will transition to a generation that did not grow up on the farm or operate it themselves. We connect Landowners to Producers who will operate the land as if it were their own.
Preserving the family farm – 1 Landowner, 1 Producer and 1 Farm at a time
OUR MISSION
Our mission is to connect the next generation of land owners to the next generation of producers.
WHAT WE DO
Combining 80 years of experience in the Agriculture industry to offer you these services.
Century Match™
A program unique to Next Gen Ag where we match the next generation of landowners to the next generation of producers.
We work with both existing and aspiring producers to connect them with retiring farmers and landowners.
Leasing Program
We act as an unbiased 3rd party to help facilitate fair and long term lease arrangements for the benefit of your farm and your landowner-producer relationship.
We offer a flexible flat fee structure that can be paid by the landowner, the producer, or both can share in the cost.
Farm Advisory
A program to help producers manage the costs in their farm operation and operate more profitably. Producers have the option for a one-time review or an on-going consulting program.
Consulting Services
We offer our expertise in other areas such as our young farmer mentoring program, real estate consultation, and facilitating transition of farm operations between non-related parties.
