Quality Farm Management Work

Kriener Farm Management Inc provides farm management services for various clients including individuals, trusts, estates, corporations and partnerships that own land. Agriculture is an increasingly complicated business.


Production practices keep changing owing to technological advances. Commodity markets are highly volatile. Government programs have a multitude of rules, regulations and requirements to obtain the benefits. Small profit margins depend on cost control.


Knowledge regarding these issues is essential these days to succeed in agriculture. Since we work on these issues regularly, we have the experience and expertise to guide you to achieve your goals of farm ownership.


Our company is managing over 10,000 acres of land in Iowa, Nebraska, and South Dakota. Our clients are located throughout the United States as well as abroad. We offer a complete management program to maximize the return from your land.

Analysis and Recommended Method of Operation 

The experts at Kriener Farm Management Inc start with a complete analysis of the farm and preparation of a plan for future operation. The goals and objectives of farm ownership along with the ways to achieve them will be present in the report.


Expect us to evaluate various methods of operation, such as crop-share rent, cash rent, guaranteed bushel lease, or custom farming, and suggest the method that is suitable for your goals and objectives. The report will also have recommended crop rotations, fertility, seed and pest control programs, and possible improvements.

Crop Production Planning 

Based on the interest of the client in crop production, a plan is put together each fall and winter for the next crop year. The plan contains the area of land for each crop, seed variations, soil fertility programs, and weed and pest control programs along with a budget for the coming year.


After the plans are made jointly with the farm operator, they will be provided to you for review and approval. We review and approve the operator’s plans for cash-rented farms. It is done to ensure they are appropriate and will maintain or increase the productive capacity of the farm.

Analyzing Government Programs 

We stay updated on the changes regarding USDA farm programs and complete the paperwork required to participate in these programs. We monitor legislation that affects farming and even communicate with the legislators.

Conduct Farm Inspections and Provide Written Reports 

During the growing season, routine farm inspections and consultations with the farm operator are a way to ensure that plans are implemented properly and on time. We check plant populations, crop development, weed and pest control, and any improvement projects that are in progress. We’ll provide regular reports of these conditions and recommend any changes in plans if necessary.

Complete Accounting of Income and Expense 

A collection of farm income, payment of farm expenses, and complete reporting of all financial activity fall under our accounting function. We provide quarterly reports of receipts and disbursements and an annual income statement. Any fund that is being held for future expenses can be invested in a money market savings account. We take advantage of volume and cash discounts and can obtain dealer prices for many items.

Marketing of Farm Products 

Our professionals will constantly monitor and analyze the grain markets for you. We can utilize cash sales, cash forward contracts, basis contracts, options, and futures hedges to take advantage of profitable selling opportunities.

Negotiation of Lease Terms 

Rely on our professionals to review lease terms and make recommendations for any changes before the legal termination date each year. You can seek our expertise in the selection of the farm operator when necessary and conduct all negotiations.


All leases or custom farming agreements with the farm operator are in writing, and all operating arrangements are subject to your approval.

Achieve Peace of Mind 

Let you have peace of mind is one the most valuable service we can offer. Knowing that you have reliable professionals handling your property is a reassuring feeling.
