We have extensive experience in the farming and agriculture industry, developing connections with bankers, attorneys, and other providers in the industry. Our team of experts aim to ensure your agricultural business is successful.
At Atherton & Associates, LLP, we endeavor to serve our client’s every need—especially when it comes to the challenges presented to businesses in the agricultural industry. These include, but are not limited to:
- Cash flow analysis
- Supply chain knowledge
- Insight into agribusiness tax methods
Although an accountant’s job remains roughly the same, regardless of industry, each industry deviates slightly, necessitating the use of different methods. In fact, agriculture is an industry that’s especially unique.
Ag accountants work with farmers, vineyards, ranchers, and the like, using specialized knowledge to analyze cash flow and supply chain knowledge. A specialized ag accountant stays informed about proclamations from the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA), the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), and the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to ensure clients are confident and positioned to take advantage of tax laws and incentives.
Guiding Your Business
We work with clients and industry providers to accumulate ideas that best address a client’s situation. Our experts are knowledgeable about best practices due to our extensive experience in agribusiness.
We also excel in assisting clients with general financial help, such as by analyzing accounts receivable, accounts payable, and competitors in your market.
