Manitoba’s Family Farms in the 21st Century: A Research Survey

Jeremy Funk, a graduate student at the Asper School of Business, is doing research to better understand the relationship between family farm succession, intergenerational behaviour, and environmentally sustainable farming practices. All submitted information is strictly confidential.

The study welcomes your input on several important questions such as:

  • What are the challenges and opportunities involved with passing a farm on to the next generation?
  • What are the most significant regulatory demands faced by Manitoba’s farmers in 2012?
  • What do Manitoba’s farmers see ahead for their family farm’s future?

If you are a family farm owner, you can help by participating in this survey. It only takes 20-30 minutes and for your investment of time, you’ll be eligible to win one of five-$100 cash prizes.
