My name is Meg Lancaster and I am currently studying for a Masters in Rural Land and Business Management at the University of Reading.To fulfil my dissertation aims and objectives, I am writing to ask if you would be able to fill out the questionnaire, which I have attached. The dissertation, hopes to explore the topic of farm succession, in particular the issues surrounding the process, exploration of different perceptions, attitudes towards entry and exit and the future of succession planning. Hopefully this shall only take a few minutes of your time. Many thanks!

Hi Meg I attempted to complete this, there are not enough options at the start I would fall into a 'passed over for succession because unwilling to be treated like a slave with no defined future, so it will all be left to the dog home' category. I am sure there will be others
