This is a self-paced course designed specifically for farmers and ranchers seeking to take control of their tax planning. Whether you’re new to tax management or looking to refine your approach, this course provides practical strategies tailored to agricultural producers.

• Develop a reliable, organized record-keeping system that not only meets tax requirements but also helps you maximize eligible deductions and credits.
• Shift your perspective on taxes from simply minimizing what you owe to strategically optimizing your after-tax income for greater financial success.

The goal of this toolbox is to equip agricultural professionals (I.e., ag-educators, extension professionals, crop consultants) with a broad understanding of AI and its potential role in sustainable agriculture, along with knowledge, skills and abilities to strategically communicate about this emerging technology and its risks and opportunities with agricultural audiences.

The instructional video course includes 10 asynchronous lectures and associated activities that can be engaged with at participants' convenience. Participants who complete all modules will receive a certificate of completion from Washington State University's Center for Sustaining Agriculture and Natural Resources.
