How can the Wimmera Farm Performance Reporting help you?
It will help answer questions like:
- How profitable is your farm?
- Is leasing farm land a sound option?
- Is farm land purchase more profitable at the current prices?
- How is your farm performing in comparison to farms in your area and other areas?
- What aspects need your attention to improve long term viability?

We monitor farm profitability to provide feedback on how on farm assets owned, share-farmed or leased are really performing. This can provide valuable insight into farm purchasing, share-farming and leasing decisions.
We monitor the leading financial indicators (KPI’s) that the banks focus on when making lending decisions. This means our report is a valuable tool for discussion when arranging borrowing facilities.
We calculate labour, plant and farm land productivity as well as asset turnover which provide valuable insight into how productive your farm operation is compared to other farms. This in turn can provide a guide to change and improvement.
The Wimmera Farm Performance Reporting provides five year rolling averages of 17 important key performance indicators (KPI’s) which are calculated for your region, for the median farm and the Top 20% most profitable farms in our Wimmera survey.
