I appreciate the question. I'm a little bit familiar with that bill. From the work we do in transferring a farm, that's essential to business continuity, so it comes with business planning as well.
We definitely see a need to expand our traditional thinking around farm transfers not to just the children, including siblings, including whatever the definition of family is. There are cousins involved, there are in-laws involved, and there are grandchildren involved. Actually, I'm glad your farmers are thinking about retirement and talking about retirement because oftentimes farmers don't even want to talk about retirement. So that's a positive thing.
When you look at transferring the farm forward, you have a lot of different models and a lot of different options, so I think the more options we can give farmers the better. And whether you want to keep it in the family or not is really up to the farmers and up to the family and who can best carry on that legacy for the farm.
Oftentimes the family is interested. Some farmers don't have that option, so it's important not to put all our eggs in that basket, but I do think when it comes to family intergenerational transfer, we have done a lot of work in succession planning and we see that oftentimes it skips a generation. It's the grandchildren taking over because they have left it too long for the parents to have and hold that piece. I would be totally in support of anything that expands that definition and makes it easier to keep that legacy going, for whatever makes sense for the farm business.
