Appraising Ag Facilities: Poultry Seminar
One of the most difficult assignments an appraiser will encounter is the valuation of an agricultural facility. This seminar reviews the underlying appraisal theory relative to facility appraisals and then apply the theory specifically to the valuation of a poultry farm. In this seminar, we will discuss what is actually being valued in an agricultural facility, review applicable terminology, discuss the overall appraisal process beginning with problem identification, then walk through a real-world example detailing sales analysis and following through all the traditional approaches to value.
