The Spring/Summer 2026 edition of Landwise brings together practical guidance and expert insight to help farming businesses and rural families navigate a fast‑changing financial and legislative landscape.

In this issue, we cover:

  • Inheritance tax reforms and what the new rules mean for farms, estates and rural businesses
  • Practical succession planning, including a clear 10‑step guide to starting family conversations
  • Managing cashflow and profitability amid rising costs, volatile markets and tighter lending
  • Protecting rural family businesses from inheritance tax through trusts and strategic planning
  • Life cover as a tool for inheritance tax planning in estates
  • Making Tax Digital for Income Tax from April 2026 – who’s affected, what’s changed and how to prepare
  • An ‘On the ground’ Q&A with partner Martin Rossiter on current challenges, diversification and succession
  • Guest feature: Farmer Time — connecting classrooms with real farming through live online links
