      abstract = {Traditionally, family-farm businesses have been passed  down through a number of generations and the facilitation  of a smooth transition from one generation to another is  central to the profitability, continuity and sustainability  of the business. There are many factors which can impact on  an individual beginning to manage a farm in their own  right. This study seeks to determine the barriers to new  entrant farmers in Northern Ireland through a survey of  young farmers/new entrants to farming. The results from the  survey show that the profitability of the farm business,  the age of the farmer when they identify a successor, the  stage in the household lifecycle when a successor is  identified, the wider dynamics of the family household and  the role of the wider rural economy affect the success of  new entrants to farming.},
