A collective solution to rising agricultural challenges

Farming is getting tougher with rising machinery, fuel, and labour costs, not to mention the challenges of changing markets, environmental pressures, and shifting government policies. It’s clear that finding new ways to keep operations running smoothly and stay profitable long-term is more important than ever.

That’s where Joint Venture Farming comes in. It’s all about farmers coming together, sharing resources, and working as a team while still keeping control of their own farm.

We’re more than just a joint venture—we’re a collaborative partnership

Right now, two farms have teamed up, sharing more than just costs. We’ve created a setup where each farm keeps full control over their cropping decisions, input purchases, and grain sales. You stay in charge of your farm and get 100% of any profit you make.

We currently farm 670 hectares together, but we’re looking to grow. If you want to stay hands-on with your farm, but could use some support, a joint venture might be the way forward for you.

Why opt for a Joint Venture Farming model?

Members join Joint Ventures to retain control and influence over their farming operations while receiving support for day-to-day activities, freeing up time to focus on other areas of their business or personal pursuits. A joint venture can also improve how efficiently resources are being used, the quality of day to day management, deploying best practise and innovation through information sharing.

Joint Venture Farming brings together individual farming businesses with the primary goal on helping them create a long terms sustainable business.

Taking the next steps

Joining our cooperative

If you’re interested in exploring the benefits of Joint Venture Farming and becoming part of a successful agricultural collaboration, here are the next steps to consider:

Meet the farm manager

Schedule a meeting with the farm manager to engage in a general discussion about the Joint Venture, how it operates, and review typical costs. This is also an opportunity for you to provide insights into your circumstances, your farm, and your preferred ways of doing things. You may find it beneficial to visit existing Joint Venture farms and invite the farm manager to tour your farm.

Investment discussion

In the second step, you will discuss the level of investment in machinery that you wish to contribute to the group. This process is flexible, allowing you to decide whether you want to contribute your machinery or explore options for purchasing new equipment. If you decide to contribute machinery you currently own, you may also consider selling some machinery to retain the proceeds or reinvest them.

Practical considerations

In this step, practical aspects such as timing, communication methods, existing commitments, and preparations for entering the group are discussed. It’s also an opportunity to review the Joint Venture agreement, which, although not legally binding, provides a framework for the group’s operations and demonstrates a shared commitment to making the Joint Venture a success.
