In this episode of the AgNet News Hour, hosts Sabrina Halvorson and Lorrie Boyer discuss the latest updates on the Corporate Transparency Act and its impact on small businesses, including farms and ranches. The U.S. Treasury Department has set a new deadline of March 21st for companies to file their beneficial ownership information following a recent court decision. The discussion highlights the back-and-forth nature of the Act's enforcement, the ease of filing, the rationale behind corporate transparency, and the potential penalties for non-compliance.
We also have a segment sponsored by UPL, in which we talk with Cassandra Rieser, Technical Service Manager for UPL, about managing botrytis and hull rot, two challenging diseases for almond growers.
