Leasing Your Land For Solar Energy

August 3, 2016


Farm Bureau has planned a meeting for interested parties to learn more about solar leasing. The meeting will be held at the Wyoming County Agriculture and Business Center at 36 Center St., Warsaw, NY at 7pm on Wednesday, August 3rd. This meeting is for farmers and rural landowners who may be considering leasing land for large, multi-acre solar arrays and is also for those who work with landowners. Topics which will be addressed include the pros and cons of leasing your acreage to a solar generator and the agricultural assessment of farmland as it relates to leasing.

We have enlisted the help of Dennis C. Vacco, partner at Lippes, Mathias, Wexler, Friedman LLP, vice president of Vacco Farms, Inc. and Farm Bureau member, who understands the need to protect landowner rights. Also joining us is Michael Saviola, a presenter from the New York State Department of Agriculture and Markets.

 No reservation is required.
