Justin Bierschwale, ARA, Instructs Wind Power Seminar to ASFMRA Appraisal, Farm Management Experts

May 5, 2011 - PRLog -- May 4, 2011 – Denver, CO- Justin Bierschwale, ARA, of Bierschwale Land Company in Junction Texas recently instructed a Wind Powered Generators – Impact on Land Ownership Seminar as part of the Annual Spring Meeting of the Northeast Chapter, ASFMRA. This seminar was attended by 40 land experts, including local and national rural appraisers and farm management professionals.  

As the need for energy independence increases and the search for alternative sources continues, wind energy has surfaced to fill the gap. The one-day Wind Power Seminar reviewed the mechanics of wind powered generators and the wind park development process. Local, state, and federal policies are discussed and land ownership issues were also reviewed. The basic economics of wind generators were covered, including actual sales and income analysis to develop the internal rate of return were presented to prepare students for appraisal purposes.  

The Wind Seminar is part of the American Society of Farm Managers and Rural Appraisers (ASFMRA) education curriculum. ASFMRA is an internationally recognized leader in agricultural and rural real estate education.  The information taught is extremely beneficial when applied to the appraisal assignments in the “real world” and blended with just the right amount of theory. Our instructors give you the tools you need to go back to your office and start applying them to your work the day you return from class.

Qualified instructors for ASFMRA courses and seminars are experienced appraisers, reviewers, managers or consultants who have earned the ASFMRA designations.
