Tax Season Prep and Ranch Planning with Roger McEowen
Mar 25, 2026 Season 5 Episode 6
Angus Beef Bulletin

April is quickly approaching and that means we are probably all spending a little time preparing for tax season. While the Angus Beef Bulletin team has devoted an episode or two to the One Big Beautiful Bill Act previously, we’re taking the opportunity to dive deeper into what effect this bill will have on taxes for farmers and ranchers. 

On this episode, our host Chelsea Good sat down with Roger McEowen, professor of agricultural law and taxation at Washburn University School of Law in Topeka, Kan., to discuss the One Big Beautiful Bill Act, its tax implications, a little something called hobby loss rules, planning for transition and taxes down the line, and more. 

Thank you to Superior Livestock Auctions for their sponsorship of this episode.
