Fence law webinar launches Thursday

Published

on

The “Fence Law” webinar is part of the Texas Range Webinar Series, scheduled the first Thursday of each month from noon to 1 p.m., said Megan Clayton, AgriLife Extension range specialist and webinar coordinator, Corpus Christi.

Tiffany Dowell Lashmet, AgriLife Extension agricultural law specialist, Amarillo, will be the presenter.
Lashmet is the host of the popular podcast “Ag Law in the Field” and author of the blog “Texas Agriculture Law Blog.”
She also conducts the Ranchers Leasing Workshop, which can be found online.
“Texas fence law is an area of much importance and inaccurate information,” Lashmet said. “This webinar will offer an overview of Texas fence law and highlights how the law applies to common issues such as livestock versus auto collisions on the roadway, estray livestock, neighbor fencing disputes and more.”
No Texas Department of Agriculture continuing education units will be offered during this webinar, so attendance is free for all.

For more information on the webinars, contact Clayton at [email protected].
