The event is sponsored by the Indiana Agricultural Law Foundation. Among the topics to be considered are:

• The differences between a contract and a lease.
• What constitutes a valid contract or lease.
• Oral contracts and leases.
• Farmland leases and how to terminate them.
• Production contracts.
• Renewable energy leases.

The program is aimed at farmers, landowners and ag stakeholders who can benefit from broadening their understanding of contracts and leases.
