Abstract

This article discusses the hereditary succession in small family farms, from the perspective of decision theory, especially considering the decision making process, which become potential successors (children) and successful (parents) considering the different factors that influence this process. For the empirical analysis, it was considered a sample of 50 farmers in the municipality of Frederico Westphalen / RS, since the rural municipality medium is predominantly made up of small family farms and, over time, has undergone constant changes due youth exodus, a fact that is causing a number of social and economic problems to local rural development. To measure this reality questionnaires were applied to farmers and their potential successors.
