Handing the reigns from one generation to the next has been well documented on here, some successes down not so.
We are in the process here (or at at least I think we are) - it’s not going well to be honest. Despite doing all the feeding, shepherding, organising, all the paper work etc I still seem to be getting aggressively shouted instructions at by Father. To be honest I have kind of had enough of it, it’s not an environment for raising kids when your father keeps giving you a dressing down in front of them. Most importantly we still don’t know who will get what, I have a share in some land and own two houses, I am a partner but don’t know what will happen to the rest come the day.
Starting to worry that the rug will be pulled from under us. How have others both senior and junior handled this most tricky of issues for a family farm?
