Mission 

The Iowa Chapter of the American Society of Farm Managers and Rural Appraisers works to inspire its members to professional competence, high ethical standards and educational excellence while enhancing networking opportunities and public awareness.

Welcome to the Iowa Chapter of ASFMRA!

shakeThe Iowa Chapter was chartered in 1941 to empower rural property professionals by providing education and promoting ethical and professional standards. The Chapter promotes the professions of farm management, agricultural consulting, and rural appraisal by holding meetings for the exchange of ideas, conducting education, and holding its members to a Code of Ethics and Standards of Professional Practice.

The Chapter hosts two meetings annually, typically in early February and early spring.  The chapter collaborates with other organizations to bring USPAP, as well as a spring meeting focused on land values.  The Iowa Chapter also coordinates the annual Iowa State University Soil and Land Management conference, which is the longest-standing continuing education conference on the Iowa State University campus, drawing over 300 participants each year.  The Iowa Chapter recently started a
