Transitioning Your Aquaculture Farm Business to a New Generation

This one-hour webinar, scheduled for November 20, 2015 at 1:00 p.m. EST, will discuss developing a plan to eventually transition the aquaculture farm business to a new generation of owners and managers. A good transition process is one in which plans for the retirement of the current owners and the transition to new owners/managers occurs over a long period of time, often 10 years or more.

This webinar will focus on key considerations and questions that should be addressed in a well-thought out transition plan. A thorough transition plan should include a series of specific plans that include: 1) management transfer plan; 2) ownership transfer plan; 3) income transfer plan; 4) labor transfer plan; 5) retirement plan; and 6) estate plan.
