Agri-Advisory Launch Event

In May 2024 we launched our ground-breaking new service for Farmers looking to reach their financial goals.

Find out what’s possible for your farm – and how we can help you – Even if you’re not our client!

See how we can take your farming operation to the next level with our new Agri-Advisory service packages. You’ll hear real-world examples of how our Agri-Advisory service has been implemented on local Wairarapa farms, and learn more about why the major banks support this type of service.

Who was the event for?

1) Farmers under pressure from high working costs, interest rates or low sales prices

  • Why: There are usually more options to improve your situation than many farmers realise. Having a budget and cash flow forecast is not only important because it gives you a plan to get to greener pastures, but it also gives banks and lenders the ability to provide you with better access to essential working capital options where you need it the most.

 

2) Farmers with lower debt levels 

  • Why: If you’re further on in your farming journey, finding not only financial freedom, but the freedom from uncertainty is the next crucial step. Whether you’re looking for clarity in your succession planning goals, or to leverage your current position to create opportunities for expansion, Lawson Avery works to help you get to where you want to be faster, and with greater focus.
