Review

This is a curriculum to teach participants how to carry out the process of planning and implementing the transfer of a family farm to the next generation. It is organized into eight chapters. Each chapter can be taught as a stand-alone course but the eight chapters are designed to be taught as a course in several sessions over three days. Hands-on exercises allow participants to apply the information they are learning to a case farm and to their own farm. The materials include visual aides and facilitator notes. (See separate reviews of each of the eight chapters.)

How to Access

Hard copies can be purchased from the UW-Center for Dairy Profitability. An electronic version is available on CD or can be downloaded from http://www.cdp.wisc.edu/BusinessArrangements.htm
