With a nearly 30% decline in net farm income over the past 2 years, the agriculture sector continues to face a volatile economy. Add to that the stresses of an outdated farm bill, trade disputes and the questionable outlook for estate tax laws and the uncertainties abound for farmers. Meanwhile, development pressures from many different sources threaten the availability of farmland and the Buckeye State’s rich farming heritage. The 2025 Ohio Agriculture and Rural Communities Action Plan provides a blueprint for policymakers and Ohio Farm Bureau members to bolster Ohio’s agriculture industry and our rural communities. Find out what's in the plan on this Ohio Farm Bureau Podcast and get an update from Nationwide about the possible sunsetting on important tax laws that could directly impact Ohio's farm families. Nationwide and its representatives do not give legal or tax advice. An attorney or tax advisor should be consulted for answers to specific questions.
