Sinn Fein wants to see an expert group set up to examine the future of family farms.
The party reports many farmers say younger family members have emigrated and aren't interested in taking over the farm.
The proposed Commission on the Future of the Family Farm, would look at how to help farms to survive over the next 100 years.
Sinn Fein spokesperson on agriculture, Claire Kerrane, says it's a huge issue for farming families.
