AG ANALYTICS MANAGEMENT CONSULTING
Improving Farm Financial Performance | Forecasted Financial Statements & Cash Flow
Accrual financial statements—balance sheet, income statement, and cash flow—are key to assessing your farm’s financial health. Our consultants use forecasted and projected financials to support your annual planning and major investment decisions.
Forecasted and projected statements allow you to compare budgets with actual results, providing a clear picture of your farm’s financial progress.
These financial tools help guide decisions on:
- Capital purchases (land, equipment)
- Crop rotation planning
- Debt analysis & equipment cost management
- Farm expansion & grain marketing
- Insurance & labour decisions
- Land rental & lease vs. purchase
- Management compensation & risk strategies
- Structural changes
CASH FLOW FORECASTING
Eliminate the Guesswork in Your Operation
We help remove uncertainty by providing clear cash flow forecasts and projections, from annual budgets to detailed cash flow planning. Our goal is to ensure you have the financial insights needed to make informed decisions for both short-term and long-term success.
As access to credit becomes increasingly vital, we assist you in forecasting your cash needs throughout the year, allowing you to operate smoothly and confidently.
Our cash flow analysis will guide you on:
- Timing of purchases
- Strategic investments and necessary acquisitions
- Land acquisition planning
- Establishing appropriate lines of credit
- Developing an effective crop plan
- Identifying cost savings and operational efficiencies
INTEGRATED TRANSITION SOLUTIONS
After years of focusing on growing your business, the thought of stepping back and transitioning ownership can feel daunting. Deciding where to start, how to navigate the complexities, and ensuring both your legacy and retirement are secure may seem overwhelming.
We specialize in guiding you through the transition process with care and expertise. Our experienced consultants take a tailored, step-by-step approach to ensure the unique needs of your operation and family are addressed. Through open and honest discussions, we help you make informed decisions about transferring your business or operation to a family member, potential buyer, or other successor.
