Farm succession planning during the COVID-19 crisis – 29 October at 5pm till 6pm

The end goal of any farm succession plan is to take care of the family and bring them together while making sure that the business continues to thrive. This is the gold standard but what real challenges do families encounter across the UK when going through this process? What can be done to smooth the path and keep everything on track and on side? Agricultural law specialist, Jeanette Dennis, is a guest speaker and panellist on this Farmers Weekly webinar to discuss the many aspects of succession and address some of the key issues:

Speaking to your family plainly and truthfully is a skill. Learn how to open the discussion, ask the right questions, negotiate and find appropriate ways of communicating
It’s important to plan for but not to be driven by tax considerations
Take stock of the health of the farm business before you start the journey
Think of all possible avenues to succession – there may be solutions that are not immediately obvious
Succession is about far more than transferring assets– clear plans should also be for a successful and practical handover.
