The majority of European farms are family farms. Farm succession, i.e. passing over theresponsibility from farm owner and manager to their heir, is an important element of structural changein agriculture. We present a model implementation capturing farming household evolution in an agent-based model and explore the consequences of farm household composition and farm succession onagricultural production, investment and participation in agri-environmental policy schemes.
