Plan your farming season
Connect your farming costs with the timing of crop sales. Harvest time is not always the date you receive payment.
- 01
List the season’s needs
Plan seeds, fertiliser, labour, water, equipment and transport. Separate payments needed before harvest from those due afterwards.
- 02
Map when money arrives
Record expected harvest, sale and payment dates. Ask the buyer how and when payment will be made, and keep a record of the agreement.
- 03
Consider a difficult season
Consider a lower harvest, a lower selling price or a late-paying buyer. Use the cash planner to explore lower receipts before choosing a repayment commitment.
- 04
Match the plan to your obligations
Allow for household needs and the next season. If you are considering credit, ask how the available repayment schedule relates to when you receive income.
