Emerging Market Areas
Members of our Agribusiness Team are on the cutting edge of developments within emerging market areas in Florida.
Alternative Uses
Because of emerging diseases, such as “greening”, and market constraints, our clients seek our trusted assistance in converting acreage to alternative uses. These alternatives include utility formation, public private partnerships, and other creative responses to market conditions.
Biofuel
Our Team is conducting extensive research on biofuel tax incentives in Florida agriculture so that we can counsel clients on the tax consequences of converting from an existing crop to a new crop to be utilized for biofuel.
Carbon Credit Trading
Our Team is conducting extensive research on carbon credit trading in an effort to better promote our clients in this new and evolving field. The appeal of carbon credit trading is that it can provide landowners with a revenue source for activities they may already be promoting or would promote. While Florida does not have an established market for trading carbon credits at this time, that is expected to change in the foreseeable future with the introduction of a United States cap and trade program, and our Team will be in a position to counsel clients on how to utilize the program to achieve their objectives.
