In Mexico, Agricultural Family Microenterprises (AFME) are called Rural Economic Units (UER) and according to the National Agricultural Survey in 2019 there were 4,650,783. Microenterprises generate 45.6% of employment and contribute 14.6% to the economic value of the Country. Like large companies, they are vulnerable to the generational succession process. This article highlights the importance of generational succession through a case study located in Mexico City. Through grounded theory, the information was integrated into stages: family and company diagnosis, origin of ownership, succession perspectives and analysis of the contingency plan. The lessons learned in the case study invite reflection on the importance of planning the generational succession process in the AFME´s for the preservation of conservation land in Mexico City.
