What Ag Producers Need to Know about the New Tax Law
Brad Cook & Amy Iverson, CPAs at Wipfli, LLP
The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 provided sweeping changes in tax law for businesses, trusts, and individuals. While much of the impact is beneficial for ag producers, it’s important to examine how the changes will impact short and long-term goals. This presentation is designed especially for ag producers, and provides a high-level and practical look at the changes affecting tax year 2018 and beyond.
