Download or read book Income aspirations migration and investments on and off the farm Evidence from rural Tajikistan written by Bloem, Jeffrey R. and published by Intl Food Policy Res Inst. This book was released on 2023-12-08 with total page 45 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In places with few casual or salaried employment opportunities, investments in farm or non-farm assets may offer the main pathway to increased incomes locally, whereas others may seek alternative investment options elsewhere—as migrants. What factors, then, explain these investment choices? One theory suggests that aspirations that are ahead, but not too far ahead, of current levels provide the best incentive for promoting investment. If this theory holds, then estimates of the relationship between the aspirations gap and investment choices should take the form of a non-monotonic inverted U-shape. We test for such a relationship between the income aspirations gap and investments in migration, farm assets, and non-farm assets using data from a household survey in rural Tajikistan. We find evidence of an inverted U-shaped relationship between the income aspirations gap and measures of migration, with the strongest relationship found with international migration. Strikingly, we do not observe any association between the income aspirations gap and measures of investment in farm or non-farm assets. Exploring heterogeneity, we find that these results can vary by household poverty status and by the respondent’s gender. Investigating a possible mechanism, we find that the relationship between the income aspirations gap and migration seems to be driven by remittances, which outweigh migration costs and increase household income.
Download or read book Financial Strategies for Selling a Farm Or Ranch written by Chris Nolt and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2016-10-06 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Selling a farm or ranch can create serious tax consequences. Without proper planning prior to a sale of a farm or ranch, the wealth a family has worked a lifetime to create can be eroded by up to 25% or more. Fortunately, there are financial tools and tax-saving strategies you can use to bypass taxes on the sale of a farm or ranch. If you sell your farm or ranch and do not utilize any tax-saving strategies, you will end up paying more in taxes. This means you will have less money left to invest. Financial Strategies For Selling A Farm Or Ranch explains how you can reduce or completely bypass capital gain and income taxes on the sale of a farm or ranch and invest sale proceeds wisely. In this book you will learn:* How to defer taxes on the sale of a farm land or ranch land with the IRC Section 1031 Tax-Deferred Exchange* How to bypass taxes on the sale of a farm or ranch with the IRC Section 664 Charitable Remainder Trust * How to bypass taxes on the sale of land, livestock, crops, machinery and equipment* How to withdraw up to $500,000 of gain on the sale of a farm or ranch home tax-free* How to create passive, reliable retirement income* How to use a special type of life insurance and trust to pass income and estate tax free money to your heirs * How to invest the cash proceeds from the sale of your farm or ranch* How to avoid common investor mistakes * How to evaluate investment vehicles such as mutual funds, ETFs, annuities, hedge funds and private equity * How to select the best mutual funds * How to implement, monitor and manage your investments properly* How to create an effectively diversified investment portfolio* How to distribute income from your investments for retirement* How to invest 1031 exchange proceeds * How to invest in commercial real estate* How to evaluate investment property using Capitalization (Cap) Rates, Gross Rent Multiplier and Net Income Multiplier* How to evaluate net operating income and commercial property leases * How to select a commercial real estate broker* How to select a farm or ranch real estate broker to sell your farm or ranch* Guidelines for choosing a financial advisor to help you plan for the sale and life afterwards* What to look for when selecting a tax advisor for your farm/ranch* Much moreChapter six includes a detailed analysis on the sale of a highly appreciated ranch. The Tax Reduction Wheel of Fortune illustrates how using a combination of the section 1031 exchange, section 664 charitable remainder trust, section 121 personal residence exclusion and other strategies enables a family selling a highly appreciated ranch to: * Decrease taxes paid on the sale of a ranch by over 90% * Increase retirement income from ranch sale proceeds by 25%* Increase the potential inheritance for their heirs by 25%Planning for the sale of a farm or ranch and life afterwards should not begin when you have an interested buyer for your property. It should begin before even listing your property for sale. Too often, families wait until they have a signed contract before getting financial advice. Unfortunately, when this happens, it is too late to use some tax-saving strategies. If you are selling your farm or ranch and want to preserve your wealth and make your money work for you, order this book today.

Download or read book Investors Guide to Farmland written by Greyson S. Colvin and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2012 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Everyone has to eat to survive. The production of almost all food can be traced back to farmland in some way. Demand is growing for farmland as the world's population and global needs for food are rising. The supply of farmland is not changing, thus creating a severe imbalance in the supply of farmable land and demand for food. The world's population is expected to grow from 7 billion to over 9 billion by 2050. Over the same time period, food production must double. Global grain supplies are already at record low levels. If the US stopped producing corn, it would run out in less than 30 days and set off a domino effect that would bring the world to its knees. How can one capitalize on the increased global protein consumption and demand for food? An investment in farmland will provide a steady stream of income and capital gains due to the increasing global demand for agricultural commodities and limited supply of global arable land. The Investors' Guide to Farmland will guide you through the rational for investment in farmland, understanding the characteristic of farmland, and why it should become part of your portfolio.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At 13, Emily is tall, restless and impatient - ladylike she certainly isn't! Emily despises such things as needlework, but she has a vivid imagination and is a keen artist and, along with her talented sister, Charlotte, loves to write. But Emily stumbles upon a real-life story, when she encounters the vagabond Heslington while out walking her beloved dog, Captain, on the Yorkshire Moors. Heslington is hiding out in an abandoned cottage, on the run from someone, but claims he is guilty of nothing. All he can tell Emily is that he is passionately in love with a Miss Martha Holmes, but has been forbidden from seeing her. Martha's family believe Heslington is only after her money, but he is prepared to live like a pauper, he says, if he can only be with the girl he loves. Touched by his story, Emily finds herself drawn into the whole sorry mess, acting as a reluctant go-between for Martha and Heslington, but convinced she is doing the right thing. But when Heslington reveals his dark side, Emily finds herself doubting him, not knowing what to believe. Is Heslington the love-torn romantic hero of her imaginings or he is mad...?

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There are twenty million acres of lawns in North America. In their current form, these unproductive expanses of grass represent a significant financial and environmental cost. However, viewed through a different lens, they can also be seen as a tremendous source of opportunity. Access to land is a major barrier for many people who want to enter the agricultural sector, and urban and suburban yards have huge potential for would-be farmers wanting to become part of this growing movement. The Urban Farmer is a comprehensive, hands-on, practical manual to help you learn the techniques and business strategies you need to make a good living growing high-yield, high-value crops right in your own backyard (or someone else's). Major benefits include: Low capital investment and overhead costs Reduced need for expensive infrastructure Easy access to markets Growing food in the city means that fresh crops may travel only a few blocks from field to table, making this innovative approach the next logical step in the local food movement. Based on a scalable, easily reproduced business model, The Urban Farmer is your complete guide to minimizing risk and maximizing profit by using intensive production in small leased or borrowed spaces. Curtis Stone is the owner/operator of Green City Acres, a commercial urban farm growing vegetables for farmers markets, restaurants, and retail outlets. During his slower months, Curtis works as a public speaker, teacher, and consultant, sharing his story to inspire a new generation of farmers.
