Abstract

This study aimed to demonstrate the association between family characteristics and the succession processes in rural properties based on the theory of parenting styles. This study was conducted in the Northwest and Mid-Eastern regions of Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil, having 308 rural properties with succession or succession prospects as units of analysis. In general, the results show that the relationship between parents and their sons/daughters, especially regarding how work, management, income, and incentives are established in the properties, are fundamental in the succession process. Such relationships later influence the preparation of the successor or potential successor to take over the rural property, as well as the successor’s permanence on the property. The results also indicate most characteristics that include the authoritative parenting style, which, in addition to encouraging children to remain in the rural environment as successors, enable their active participation in rural property, compared to the characteristics of the authoritarian parenting style.
