Contract farming and joint ventures
Contract-farming

Our Buying Group coordinates the purchase of seeds, fertilisers, sprays and spares, enabling you to benefit from economies of scale and our long-term supplier relationships.

Contract farming

We have been establishing and managing contract farming agreements for more than twenty years and can tailor them to suit the needs of the individual farm. For example, you can remain involved in decisions such as cropping or varietal choice while leaving the day-to-day running of the farm to your chosen contractor. You can also adjust annually the amount of land you put in and profit you take out.

Joint ventures

By sharing resources with other farming businesses whether land or machinery or expertise you can minimise the level of capital investment and also benefit significantly from economies of scale. We can advise you on negotiating a joint venture that will extract the maximum mutual benefit for you and your partners.

"Strutt & Parker helped us to set up a joint venture to run a 6,000 acre farm. As well as enabling us to make substantial costs savings in terms of machinery and labour, they've also helped us to significantly improve the quality of the yield."
