October 07, 2024 12:25 PM

The IRS has listed counties eligible for an extended replacement period for drought sales of livestock. Owners in specified areas now have at least until the end of 2025 to replace the involuntarily converted animals.

Roger McEowen with the Washburn School of Law spoke with RFD-TV’s own Tammi Arender on what this process entails, the duration of the replacement period, and eligibility.

The New Crop
RFD-TV has partnered with a handful of agricultural social media influencers whom we have dubbed The New Crop. These folks have taken to the internet to tell their stories and to raise awareness of where our food comes from and all that goes into feeding the world population.
Where the Food Comes From
The goal of “Where the Food Comes From” is as simple as its name implies — host Chip Carter takes you along on the journey of where our food comes from — and we don’t just mean to the supermarket (though that’s part of the big picture!). But beyond where it comes from, how it gets there, and all the links in the chain that make that happen.
