We explore the deep emotional connection farmers have to their land and the importance of legacy planning to preserve family farms for future generations.
• Farmland represents more than monetary value—it carries the blood, sweat, and tears of previous generations
• Creating a mission statement and core values provides clarity for farm succession planning
• Open communication between family members helps prevent conflict and preserves relationships during transitions
• Next-generation farmers benefit from gaining outside experience before taking on full farm responsibilities
• Non-farming heirs should understand options beyond selling inherited land
• Keeping farmland in the family can provide long-term investment benefits versus a one-time sale
• Documentation and facilitated conversations help families work through difficult succession planning topics
