Gifts of Farm Interests

Donating your farm interests, including land, grain, machinery, livestock and your farm, is an easy and tax-effective way for you to make a gift to OMSI.

How to make a gift of your farm interests

Your farm interests may be given to OMSI by executing or signing a deed transferring ownership. You may transfer part or all of your farm assets to OMSI. Please contact us to discuss the gift and deductibility of your unique assets.

Additional Information

  • Mortgaged Property - If the property you wish to give has existing debt or a mortgage, please be aware that indebtedness can affect your charitable tax deduction.
  • Difficult Property Gifts - Certain properties pose challenges. We have adopted policies to limit the acceptance of certain kinds of assets. Please check with us before making a gift of your farm interest so we can explain our gift acceptance policies.
  • Capital Gains Tax - Check with us on the capital gains tax implications of your gift. You may also be interested in life income options.
