I’ll need to see some documentation to verify this. My understanding is that the U.S. tax code exempts a farm from the estate tax as long as the heirs who receive the asset continue to operate it as a farm.

On NPR tonight they said family farms don't have to worry because they can pay the tax in installments.

Never heard of that. Don't believe it is true.
