Retirement planning is often an involved, complicated, and emotionally charged activity, as consideration is given to future income sources and amounts needed during retirement years.
The focus for many non-agricultural individuals is often on contributions to various investment instruments designed to provide the desired income stream while minimizing taxes as withdrawals and any disposition of capital assets are considered.
However, for many agricultural businesses, those aspects of retirement planning are just the beginning, because planning often includes the transition of ownership of an on-going business from a retiring generation to a younger generation.
Also, it may be further complicated by a desire by several, if not all, involved parties for the business to continue to operate and remain financially viable.
Furthermore, planning can become uncomfortable as involved member(s) of the younger generation may want to continue to operate the business after the retiring generation exits and non-involved siblings may not.
