Putting the success back into succession with Peter Templeton | EP 43
We’re continuing the theme of farm succession by chatting with Peter Templeton, a fifth-generation Southland dairy farmer, who spent five months travelling the USA and Europe as a Nuffield scholar, researching what works (and what doesn’t) when it comes to farm succession.
He met with over 100 farmers, their advisors, and industry experts to paint a wide picture of ownership structures, financial strategies, and family dynamics that make or break the succession process.
He joins us to share his findings, warn about common pitfalls that trip families up, and talk us through strategies that lead to successful, stress-free transitions.
