Generational Renewal Week Webinar Recap

Earlier this month, Teagasc hosted Generational Renewal Week – a hybrid programme of events including webinars and farm walks.

Generation Renewal Week aimed to showcase opportunities for young people to build fulfilling careers in farming, to support older farmers to step back when they choose to do so, and to help farmers navigate the often-complex area of tax implications related to succession and land transfer.

The first webinar as part of ‘Generational Renewal Week’ featured Ruth Fennell, Collaborative Farming Specialist, who looked at collaborative farming options and how they can be used to address generation renewal.

The second webinar focused on starting the conversation around Farm Succession and Inheritance with Claire O’Keeffe from Succession Ireland and Enda Geoghegan, Teagasc. The webinar also covered the importance of making a will with James McDonnell, Financial Specialist, Teagasc.
