Make a lot of vague promises about "someday".
Refuse to take any transition steps "right now" for at least ten years.
Control all financial decisions.
Pay a subsistence wage, supplemented by vague promises.
Decide to retire and demand payment in cash for your farm.
Spend the rest of your life bitter that your son finally had enough and left.




Excellent advice. I will also add in, try to do everything possible for your farm not to succeed. Ridicule and berate any ideas for improvement, or changes in cropping practices. Next year will always be better doing it the same way! Focus your efforts on what you did last year and keep doing the same things over and over again hoping for new success! Save your way rich! Kick interested sibling out of any on farm housing available, make them buy their own house while uninterested sibling saves cash for new McMansion and eventual ownership of entire operation to sell. Farm til you are dead knowing you are in charge. Drink yourself into a coma every night to entertain everyone that stops by, only if they are non-family though. If they are family, head to the neighbors place to comatose yourself.
