Edition changes: Licensed narrative text edition. Original headings, paragraphs and references are preserved with normalized whitespace and layout. Figures, tables, display equations and separately licensed third-party material are not reproduced; use the linked original full text for those elements and definitive pagination. This is an attributed republication, not newly conducted research.
Evidence limits: Observational successor survey; no randomized intervention or causal effect estimate. German agricultural family-farm sample and succession conditions limit generalization. Organizational ambidexterity is not a direct measure of family-office portfolio returns.
Retraction / correction check: No notice found in bounded publisher and Crossref checks Not an exhaustive Retraction Watch, Crossmark or other retraction-database audit. Absence of an indexed notice is not an assurance of scientific validity. Checked 2026-10-22.
