How to stay in control of your farm
For farm businesses in Southern Queensland, managing your finances has become more difficult. Compared with several years ago:
Interest rates have gone up 2.4 times costing an extra $3,000 a month for every $1m borrowed
Fertiliser costs have gone up 67% costing an extra $10,500 for every 1,000 acres cropped
Diesel costs have gone up nearly 60% costing an extra $6,800 for every 10,000 litres
Farm input costs are over 40% higher than in 2019. That’s a direct impact on your bottom line
