Hi all,

I have spent a little time on a close friend's property in QLD, and am wanting to get into the hobby farm game myself. 

I'm in the very early stages or working the financials of it all and i think i'm on the right track, but any advise is appreciated.

The workings of second mortgages etc are all sorted, what i need to know is if i am working out buy/sell prices for cattle correctly. 

The figures I have been given so far are:

Buy price - $1.75/kg for roughly 250kg weener

My wife and I have a 15 acre farm in Toongabbie, Victoria. We've received a notice from council asking us to prove that we're "primary producers" or have (proper) plans to be. To do this we need an accountant who's on the ball with the intricacies of small farming ventures and can help us put this plan together so that the council can see what we want to do. We've only just moved in and spent a fortune on fences so there's not much left at present to get stock...

How do we find such an accountant?

Hi just joined up and have a small farm in Kandanga Qld called Wallenbeen which means Stoney ridge. Just had about 70 mm of rain over a few days so everything is looking well. We wish to breed small breed cattle. We have been building infastructure and improving place with grasses and fencing. We have a couple of  PB Dexter heifers, a Murray Grey/dexter heifer (Beautiful) and a Dexter/angus Steer. we grow our own veges and have our our own free range chickens.  Look forward to picking up a few tips and learning a lot from the members

Cheers Chief

Hi, I'm Sam

I'm investigating buying a farm in the Nabiac / Taree area and really have no idea what I'm doing.  Have always lived in the city.  Can anyone suggest a book to read / course to do that woudl give me a starting point at what I should be looking at.  The only things I've though of are water availability and soil condition.

Thanks

Sam
