Cash flow budgeting | Helping farmers in Scotland | Farm Advisory Service
Farmers that do a cash flow budget generally perform better because the process helps them think through the year ahead. How many calves are available to sell? How much fertiliser to buy? What impact will draining that bottom field have on the bank balance? These are the types of important questions doing an annual cash flow budget forces you to think through. Getting the support of your bank manager is far more likely if they can see the budget behind your plan.
