Abstract
Transfer of family farms to successors is a natural process, the aim of which is to ensure the continuation
of farming and farm development which occurs during the transfer of new knowledge, openness to new
ideas in the field of agriculture and other characteristics attributable to young people. Research has shown
that the young generation is characterized by creativity hosts large theoretical knowledge on agricultural
issues and openness to new techniques and production technologies. However, it is the older generation
who besides more practical knowledge, are characterized by greater courage in making decisions about the
future of the farm and not rarely help young farmers with involving in challenging ventures. Farm succession
is accompanied by various kinds of concerns, but in the case of the surveyed farms, most of them belong
to the young successors and mostly they concern if they will be able to maintain their families living on
farming and whether as farm managers they will cope with the challenges posed by everyday responsible
decisions related to this job.
