Summit Farm Management is Summit Agricultural Group’s full-service farm management and advisory unit. We work directly with farm owners and operators to meet their goals by helping to determine, structure, and facilitate their plans that increase farm value and productivity on a long-term basis.
Summit Farm Management’s mission is to improve farms while imparting the true ag expertise needed to help them appreciate long into the future. Our experienced management team specializes in a wide range of services applied at the owner’s discretion as part of one of several management options including cash rent, flexible cash rent, crop share or other custom agreements. We value communication as an essential ingredient for any successful relationship and encourage landowners to be actively involved in all planning and decision-making processes. To guarantee that each landowner receives maximum value in partnering with us, Summit’s farm management services can be tailored as needed, or can take a holistic approach to running an entire farming operation.
