Farm Succession: Conflict Management for Transition Planning
In this fifth episode of our series about Farm Transition Planning, we focus on conflict management – what is conflict, what causes it, how do we handle it within a farming business to come to a resolution. Purdue agricultural economists Brady Brewer and members of the Purdue Farm Transition team Renee Wiatt, Dr. Maria Marshall and Heather Caldwell discuss the levels and sources of conflict within today’s farm businesses. Working together as a team, possibly across generations of families, the team reviews how to resolve conflict and not avoid it.
