Registration Open for Indiana Farm Bureau’s 2025 Drainage School
Jul 22, 2025, 10:12 by Colleen Settle, INFB Marketing Team
(Indianapolis) – July 22, 2025 – Registration is open for Indiana Farm Bureau’s annual Drainage School, which provides an understanding of the laws and regulations impacting drainage decisions in Indiana. The workshop will be presented both virtually and in person at INFB headquarters in Indianapolis. The program will take place Tuesday, Aug. 26 from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. ET.
In-person attendance, which includes lunch, is $50 per INFB member and $100 per non-member. Virtual attendance costs $25 per individual.
Farmers, public officials, agency personnel, attorneys and the general public are encouraged to attend. Attendees will gain a greater knowledge of drainage in relation to government takings, common law, general licenses and permit exemptions, and handbook updates. There will also be regulation updates on Waters of the United States (WOTUS), wetlands and Indiana dam safety. Speakers -- who represent a variety of industries including agriculture, local and state government and law -- will share relevant case studies and actionable steps for landowners and those working with landowners.
“Water supply continues to be a major topic for Hoosier farmers, as we focus on quality and quantity of water and navigate water policy to protect agriculture and rural communities,” said INFB President Randy Kron. “We hope attendees leave with a better understanding of the laws and regulations that control the drainage of land in Indiana, so they can be more informed to make important decisions on their farms.”
Registration for the event is required. Attendees may register at www.infb.org/events through Aug. 19 for in-person attendance and through Aug. 22 for virtual attendance. Continuing education credits for attorneys and surveyors are being sought.
