 r things when you’re gone can be daunting\, but it’s so important\, es
 pecially in agriculture\, so that the transition to the next generation go
 es smoothly\,” said Jessica Groskopf\, director of the Nebraska Women in
  Agriculture program. “This series will help women learn best practices 
 and new strategies to help the transition and estate planning processes so
  they can take that back to their farm or ranch and help lead the way in c
 reating or reevaluating their plans.”\n \nGroskopf said the program’s 
 structure is intended to strengthen networks of women in rural areas\, whi
 ch can provide opportunities for building trust and sharing information.
  “Connections are so important to rural women\,” she said. “We have 
 seen the benefits that come from knowing your peers\, having a place to sh
 are difficulties\, and mitigate the isolation that so many of us in agricu
 lture often feel.”\n \nThe registration fee for in-person attendance is
