Financial Management Fundamentals Workshops
If you’re looking to get more involved in the day-to-day running of the farm business, these four workshops will familiarise you with the fundamentals of farm business financial management.
The key principles will be illustrated using real-life examples, each session will help you better understand each concept and how to implement it within your own business.
Each workshop will cover a different topic:
- Farm Admin
- Understanding Farm Accounts
- Managing Cash
- Making your Business Robust for the Future
For the last seminar, an accountant, lawyer, and bank manager will be in attendance along with our specialist facilitator.
At the end of the series, you will have a much clearer idea about the impact your daily decisions on the farm have on the business finances, how to better monitor those impacts, and how to build a more financially resilient business.
