Overview
Looking for greater certainty in your farm business decisions despite the current significant risks in agriculture? If improving farm business profits is the goal for farmers and their advisers, then P2PAgri provides the central platform for you to take control of the management and analysis of all your farm financial data.
Finding it challenging using technology in your farm business? Users of P2PAgri tell us that our software doesn't just provide powerful business knowledge, it is easy to use!
P2PAgri has been created to help farmers and their advisers empower and accelerate farming businesses, despite these uncertain times. We do this by providing powerful financial analytics and insights, as well as the unique ‘What if’ analysis to guide business decisions into the future.
P2PAgri’s goal is to be the best farm business platform in the world, and our integration with Xero is another step forward in this exciting journey. We aim to be a vital business decision tool for all farmers.
Business Simulator Just as the aviation industry decreased the risks of flying by developing and effectively using flight simulators, P2PAgri has done the same for farm businesses. We help decrease the risk in business decisions.
Our Scenario Analysis helps decision makers compare management scenarios for potential profitability, both in the current season and up to five years ahead. This empowers not just maximizing profitability, but also the management of business risks due to climate change, world economic variability, inflation and the upward movement of interest rates. Farmers currently using P2PAgri have greatly improved their farm business performance and wealth generation, and we aim to help farmers continue to be proactive in meeting the business challenges ahead.
The three key financial drivers of liquidity, efficiency and wealth are measured and modelled using P2PAgri. This greatly enhances the quality of decision making in this environment of increasing climate and economic risk. Cash flow management, management profit and loss and balance sheets reporting are both measured and modeled for up to five years into the future. The effects of season variability, commodity price changes, and input costs can be easily assessed from a whole farm business view. This makes the Scenario Analysis capability of P2PAgri a world leader, and P2PAgri places this powerful planning tool in the hands of all farmers and their advisers.
Key capabilities:
• Financial ratios from past seasons to highlight business strengths and areas for growth. • Plan for a current season, or for up to five seasons ahead, by using Scenario Analysis to help maximize profitability. • Monitor and measure actual results to inform your future planning and keep your bank informed about current financial expectations. • Plan for those big business decisions ahead to take advantage of opportunities while keeping control of the finances. This will help keep your bank onside!
P2PAgri + Xero
In the ESSENTIALS section of your P2PAgri account, you can easily input historic data from your farm business Xero account. This gives you key performance trends of your business, providing vital information to build your future planning. You can clearly identify both strengths and weaknesses of past years to better inform decisions that will help improve your business’s profitability.
Banks also use this information when assessing your farm’s business performance. Providing this information to your bank will greatly improve communication and their understanding of your business, making it easier to not only obtain loans but also decrease finance costs.
This information will also provide validation of your planning when you start to use the unique and powerful P2PAgri scenario analysis. Here you unlock the power of those ‘what if’ questions when it comes to business decision making.
Monthly cash flow management is one of the keys to business success. In P2PAgri, farmers and their advisers can create detailed monthly cash flow planning. When each month's income and expenditure is completed in Xero, then that data is brought into P2PAgri to provide the vital planned vs actual monthly cash flow analysis.
