Clint Fischer



Clint Fischer is a South Dakota attorney with a focus on family farm operations. My passion is helping ag people with farm business solutions, succession planning, and estate planning. Through my experiences, I’ve discovered that my two greatest skills are: 1) bringing people together to feel connected, included, and seen; and 2) explaining complex topics in a way that’s easy to understand.

I founded Braintrust Ag as a central hub for valuable information—a place where folks can access the tools I use daily. But the farmers, ranchers, and ag business owners I aimed to help wanted more. They sought connections and learning opportunities with their peers. This led to the evolution of Braintrust Ag into an online peer group, offering all the benefits of the local elevator/gas station coffee crowd without the neighborly competition.

Today, Braintrust Ag connects operators from around the globe. A farmer in Minnesota can now learn what works (and what doesn’t) from a farmer in Canada or Tennessee. We’re tackling the isolation often found in agriculture while sharing ideas to build better farm businesses.

I believe that to preserve family farm legacies, two things are essential:

1. Operations must be well-managed, financially viable, and attractive businesses.
2. Operations must have a written transition plan.

Greatness is found in the agency of others. We rise or fall based on the strength of our peer group. That’s why at Braintrust Ag, you’ll find a welcoming community of business-minded ag folks ready to support each other.
