AgCelerate financial literacy workshop – Casterton

EVENT DESCRIPTION

11 am to 3.15 pm

Extensive livestock fodder costs incurred from November 2023 through to July 2025 continue to place significant pressure on cash flow and recovery.

Reduced working capital, higher costs and ongoing recovery mean being across your numbers is more important than ever. Perhaps you are looking at leasing land, purchasing equipment or want to expand in other ways?

This half-day, face-to-face workshop is designed to support farmers and business partners to strengthen financial literacy and improve how decisions are made in the business. The session is practical, applied and focused on real farm businesses.

Participants will:

• strengthen understanding of their current financial position
• build and use a 12-month cashflow forecast
• identify key decision trigger points
• improve preparedness for finance discussions
• clarify goals for 2026 and beyond.

This workshop is practical and applied. You will leave with tools and templates you can implement immediately in your business.

It is open to all farm businesses and where possible, we encourage 2 members of a farming business to attend together.

This event is being delivered by Paige Cross of Cross Country Management on behalf of Agriculture Victoria as part of the Victorian Government’s statewide Drought Support Package.
