Our attention is pulled in a lot of different directions; and that is especially true in our busy seasons. Finding time to talk to your family about the future of the farm may be difficult. You also may be uncomfortable with the thought of selling your farm or handing over control to family members.
Just as you plan every spring so that your farm can have a successful year; you should consider planning long-term so your farm can be successful for years to come. Developing a solid transition plan for your farming business will help ensure that your family’s wishes are met, and emotional stress is minimized.
Here are a few things you should know about transition planning:
It’s important to enlist the help of qualified professionals who don’t have a stake in the final decisions. They can help you make sound, unbiased decisions for your farm estate. Qualified professionals may include your banker, your accountant, your personal attorney or a financial or estate planner who specializes in farm estate planning. If you have questions about transition planning or would like help in finding a qualified professional to speak with, contact the Nationwide Land As Your Legacy team via email, or toll-free at 855-529-2729.
