Kontext

There is currently a low percentage of young farmers as herd owners in Ireland. The lead partner’s experience to date dealing with farmers and their families has found considerable anxiety by many in relation to engaging in the intergenerational farm succession process.

Objectives

This project will explore the mental challenges and strains associated with the process of farm succession and provide supports to help the farm family. It has four objectives:

  1. Identify the feelings and thoughts of the farmer/ his/her spouse/partner and family member(s) on the topic of farm succession planning.
  2. Identify the supports and experts required from the OG.
  3. Introduce the support systems and experts from the OG to help the farmer through their thought processes and lead them to a peaceful and harmonious decision.

Evaluate each farmer and their mental and well-being state at the end of the process to measure and identify key milestones and gaps in the supports for the farming unit.
