Kansas State University agricultural economics will host the fourth annual Kansas Landowner Conference, designed for Kansas agricultural landowners regardless of where they live.

The conference offers landowners an opportunity to connect with other landowners and K-State experts and gain information about land management. The conference will be at the K-State Alumni Center in Manhattan.

The conference is intended for agricultural landowners who may not live on their property or in Kansas. It is designed to help landowners build networks and expand their knowledge of land management.

Conference topics include what trade, tariffs and world conflict mean to U.S. agriculture; the U.S. economic outlook; Kansas land values and land as an investment; and farm estate planning considerations.
