Forestry advisors at Teagasc, Transferring the Family Farm events. 

Teagasc run Transferring the Family Farm clinics every year and our forestry advisors will be there at each of the 6 locations.

These clinics are designed to help farm families through the process and all aspects that need to be considered when transferring the family farm.

Each event is run over a half day and opens with a short presentation on the area of farm transfer. People will get the opportunity to talk to professional advisors one-to-one about their own particular farm transfer situation.

Transferring the Family Farm
It is essential for every farmer to have a farm succession plan in place. There are complex legal and taxation rules that, if planned for, can be managed easily. If not planned for, however, there could be a major impact on the viability of the farm business.

This publication looks at seven specific issues that require discussion when a succession plan is being put in place.

• The Farm Business
• The Farm Family
• Legal Issues
• Taxes
• Collaborative Farming
• Availing of a Pension on Retirement
• Education
