Wisconsin Standing Forage Purchase Agreement
About this form
The Standing Forage Purchase Agreement is a legal document that outlines the terms under which an owner of real property sells the right to harvest standing forage to an operator. This agreement is designed specifically for transactions involving agricultural forage and is distinct from other real estate contracts, such as leases or sales agreements, as it focuses solely on the harvesting rights rather than the transfer of property ownership.
