At one extreme, if you are an investor, we can suggest what would be a good farm to purchase (if one is available), employ on-farm managers and employees and manage them, purchase equipment, manage all the finances, budgets and banking requirements, monitor paddocks weekly and arrange for the necessary work to be done, and market the produce. At the other extreme, we can provide any one or more of the above, such as monitoring paddocks, or advising on what would be a good farm to buy/lease. As one example, we can provide all the labour, management, cropping equipment, marketing of the produce, and handling of the finances and reporting. You may then provide the land and pay for the fertilisers and chemicals used and receive 40-50% of the production. We charge a fee upfront that depends on the level of management you want, and on the location and size of your farm(s). After the initial year one fee, subsequent fees are usually then only based on performance and are paid as a percentage of production, which can be as little as 2-3%
, or up to 60% as in the example above. If you would like more information, please contact us .
