How do “Large Scale” Solar and Wind projects get started?1. What defines a utility-scale renewable energy project and how it works (quick definition of wind/solar projects and how they work)2. What it’s like for a farmer to lease land to a renewable energy project (speaking with developers, signing a lease, etc)3. How renewable energy projects can (and should) coexist with agriculture: (i.e. how wind turbines take very little space from farming land so farmers can continue to work the land. Not the same for solar projects, but farmers can grow crops next to solar sites, herd sheep within solar sites, and how the land will be fertile for agriculture once the solar site is decommissioned).4. Pros and cons of leasing land to a renewable energy project ✅Pros of leasing land to a renewable energy project:Steady Income Stream (how much on average can a farmer earn from leasing land to a renewable energy project?)Minimal Impact on Land (especially wind)Local Economic Benefits (local tax revenue that can go to schools, infrastructure, emergency services, etc)Energy Security and Grid Resilience (enhancing national energy security)Contribution to Renewable Energy (reducing reliance on imported fossil fuels and increase energy independence)Save American family farms (additional income has been a lifesaver and helped keep family farms from being sold to developers and maintain that agricultural profile of a county)❎Cons of leasing land to a renewable energy project:Long-term Commitment (leases typically lasting 20 to 30 years)Land Use Restrictions (specifically for solar farms, usable farmland is often taken out of production)Need to provide access to company staff ( i.e. tech to service the turbines or panels)Potential Environmental Impact (how the installation and decommissioning processes can have environmental impacts)Sale of leased land can be complicated (if the land is already generating revenue from the lease then selling is easier. The lease can be transferred as long as it is covered in the lease agreement. Consult a lawyer for that) 5. How generating solar/wind energy is a form of harvesting in itself6. Things to consider if you’re a farmer considering leasing land to a renewable energy project.Discuss potential impacts during constructionDecommissioning process and responsibilities at the end of 20-30 years (so people remember grandpa/ grandma fondly :)Supporting your local community with many benefits that pay for essential public services for your county7. Opportunity to answer commonly asked questions/misconceptions of renewable energy projects: Whether renewable energy projects affect property valueWhether solar panels render land infertileWhether wind turbines are loud (in general wind turbines generate about 30- 45 decibels at 300 ft while the limit is 55 decibel. With proper setback in places where wind turbines are built, people are more likely to hear traffic from a distant highway than the turbine itself)Do wind turbines kill birds? (yes about 300K in the US but that is nothing compared to cats, buildings, pesticides, and cars that kill millions of birds per year)Whether renewable energy projects are funded by taxpayer money or by private investments (private investments. In fact a lot of fossil fuel companies are now making investments in renewable energy because the margins are better than generating power from gas or coal. Additionally like most energy projects clean energy companies make annual payment to the county tax revenues and support community benefits)Whether wind and solar energy are more expensive than coal or gas (see Lazard’s levelized cost of energy 2023 report)Supposedly 7-10% of the electricity generated is lost so where does that go? Ground water? Livestock, family?8. Advice to farm landowners considering leasing land to a solar or wind project. *It goes without saying but it’s important for landowners considering leasing land to a clean energy project to consult with relevant legal and financial experts for their unique situation before finalizing any agreements. There are resources like the Center for Rural Opportunity and Power (CROP) that provide good, unbiased information on how to get access to these resources as a landowner. CROP’s mission is to educate audiences about the benefits of energy independence.You can visit their website cropamerica.com or drop them an email [email protected] for more info.

He has partnered with local producers to build two state-of-the-art turn-key cattle operations.Chad is here to introduce Legacy Beef Co-op, a revolutionary cattle producer co-op that bases cattle pricing on the Boxed Beef Cutout, reflecting true consumer demand. We'll explore how this co-op aims to provide higher revenue potential, economies of scale, and favorable processing obligations, ensuring cattle producers are not forced to sell in markets influenced by external forces.We'll discuss Legacy Beef Co-op's new packing plant investment opportunity for Midwest family farm beef producers, offering them a share of retail beef profits and participation in the Cattlemen’s Heritage Beef Company. Chad will share insights on the project's timing, structure, and how it benefits producers, including ideal membership and the future of meat production.Join us for an enlightening episode as we delve into the innovative world of Legacy Beef Co-op with Chad Tentinger.

In this insightful episode of the Farm4Profit Podcast, we explore the fascinating world of Micro-Captive Insurance with none other than Van Carlson, the esteemed Founder & CEO of SRA. With over twenty-five years of experience in the risk management industry, Van brings a wealth of knowledge and expertise to the table, sharing valuable insights on how small to mid-market businesses can leverage 831(b) Plans to effectively manage their property and casualty risks while enjoying significant tax benefits.Van's journey in the industry began with Farmers Insurance Group, where he started as an agent and swiftly rose to prominence, growing his book of business to become one of the largest in his home state of Idaho. Today, his primary goal is to continue the upward trajectory of SRA, constantly innovating and developing new products to meet the evolving needs of the market.The heart of this episode lies in understanding the intricacies of 831(b) Plans and how they offer a unique opportunity for business owners to retain up to 50% of their risk and premiums. By placing funds in a tax-deferred 831(b) Plan, businesses can build a funded reserve for potential losses, thus gaining greater control over claims and even participating in underwriting profits within their plan. It's an ideal strategy for savvy business owners willing to take calculated risks for greater rewards.Van also draws parallels between 401(k) and 831(b) accounts, shedding light on their similarities in terms of tax benefits, contribution limits, and compliance requirements. However, the real magic of 831(b) Plans lies in their ability to mitigate various business risks that may not be covered by traditional insurance, such as supply chain interruptions, cybersecurity attacks, and even brand damage.Delving deeper into the history of 831(b) Microcaptives, Van discusses the legislative milestones and regulatory framework that have shaped their evolution over the years. From the Tax Reform Act of 1986 to the more recent PATH Act of 2015, which increased premium amounts and introduced inflation riders, these legislative developments have made 831(b) Plans an increasingly attractive option for businesses seeking comprehensive risk management solutions.Join us as we unravel the complexities of Micro-Captive Insurance and discover how it can be a game-changer for your business's risk management strategy. Whether you're a seasoned entrepreneur or just starting out, this episode offers invaluable insights into safeguarding your assets and maximizing rewards in today's dynamic business landscape.
