JD----your comments sure hit close to home....I have owned "my farm" for only 12 years, but since I purchased the first piece of it, I have added acreage to it twice from 2 different 3rd and 4th generation farms.
The reason I bought the farm in the first place, was because I thought my "neighbors" would always keep the farms in the family...and not chunk them off into 40 acre "recreation parcels".
In both cases, as soon as "Mom and Dad" died, all the "non farm" siblings wanted to "cash in" their "lottery tickets" and more or less forced the sibling that was operating the farm to sell to raise the cash to pay them off.....
It was really sad to see this happen, because with proper planning on both of these family farms, these sales could have been avoided...
