Bringing a young person into a farm/ranch operation presents challenges. However, the family can accomplish numerous goals by helping the young person get a solid start in the operation, keeping the farm/ranch in the family and ensuring a comfortable retirement for all involved. However, success does not come automatically, but it requires effort. Blending a variety of talents and personalities into one farming or ranching operation takes planning, communication, and management. The Returning to the Farm program is designed to assist families in developing a financial plan and successful working arrangements that will meet the needs of multiple families.
