The 2017 ABA National Agriculture Bankers Conference is underway in Milwaukee this week. Yankton Ag Banker Nate Franzen moderated a panel discussion on land values at the event.

In the Midwest land values haven’t fallen dramatically in part that’s because despite higher levels of financial stress, farmers are reluctant to sell.

With few experts forecasting a quick climb out of the price trough, Franzen doesn’t want his customers to be caught off guard.

700 ag bankers from across the country are attending the conference in Milwaukee this week.
