When to start succession planning

Succession planning is essential for ensuring the continuity of your farm and preserving your family’s legacy. Starting early allows you to:

  • Prepare the next generation for farm management and ownership.
  • Address tax implications with guidance from a certified financial planner to optimize financial outcomes.
  • Balance family dynamics to ensure a fair and equitable plan with help from a trusted wealth advisory group.

  • How do we maintain harmony among family members?
  • What tax strategies can optimize the transfer process?
  • How can we secure retirement income for the transitioning generation with effective wealth management services?
