Farm Ownership Succession

Many farm owners may continue to operate the farm late in life without having a proper discussion with family members about business ownership success within the family. These can obviously be tough issues to talk about, a key reason that these discussion are often deferred. However, talking through the issues may be important to ensure the best possible transition.
