Having a farmland lease agreement based on a handshake may be an easy way to avoid paperwork, but not having a written agreement can be a sure way to open a can of worms. This can be especially true for family members who inherit property or during times of weak commodity prices.

In this podcast Eddie Davis, who is a farm manager for Brown Land and Farm Management in Rayville, LA, discusses the importance of having a written lease and the risks you’ll be taking without one.
