For many farming families, a divorce doesn’t just mark the end of a marriage. It can have significant implications for a business that may have taken decades, or even generations, to build.

As the summer holidays approach, many separated parents begin making plans for family holidays. Whilst these arrangements are often agreed without difficulty, disputes can arise when one parent wishes to take a child out of the country and the other parent does not consent. In some cases, parents may not realise that permission is required before making travel plans.

For many farming families, their farm is not just a business but a legacy built over generations, often tied closely to family identity and future plans. Marriage is an important milestone, but it can also bring significant legal and financial implications. Without careful planning, a relationship breakdown could affect both personal finances, and the viability of the farm itself.
