As the average age of our farmers increase, planning ahead to bring the next generation on becomes vitally important. 

Recorded at the recent Australian Dairy Conference in Tasmania, Dairy Australia’s Elizabeth Mann caught up with Family Meeting facilitator and succession planning expert Lyn Sykes, to discuss the ins and outs of succession planning, how to approach the conversation in your family and what a successful succession plan can look like.
