Agriculture is a vital part of the Australian economy. Today’s primary producers need to navigate a host of changing variables - climate, commodity prices, worker shortages, trade deals with other countries and consumer sentiment around sustainability. BDO has long been a proud supporter of Australian agriculture, working with clients across all parts of the food and agribusiness value chain, from producers to retailers, and startups to successful established companies.
Each agribusiness faces a different set of challenges and opportunities. You may be focusing on fine-tuning your business model or supply chain, accessing government support initiatives, capitalising on key export markets or securing capital that will drive your growth. BDO can provide the support you need to unlock challenges and maximise growth. Talk to us about how we can help you.

Our experienced team can help you:
As the global population grows, Australian primary producers are well placed to respond to a growing demand for food. Australia exports almost three-quarters of its agricultural production, worth billions of dollars to the Australian economy each year.
Maximising the potential of your agribusiness though exporting or international expansion can be complex, with unfamiliar cultures, business landscapes, tax structures and regulatory regimes to navigate. Having the right plan and contacts in place to provide local knowledge and expertise is vital to successful international growth strategies.
By providing you with a tailored team of international experts we can help you identify the best market for your products and services, develop the right market entry strategies, gain access to government assistance and advise you through every step of structuring, pricing, HR practices, transaction services, taxation and compliance.
Our global focus on food and agribusiness enables us to provide practical advice through a network of BDO professionals around the world. Whether you’re planning to export or expand off-shore, our team can help.
Carbon farming is one way the Food & Agribusiness industry can adapt to remain at the forefront of innovation.
‘Carbon farming’ primarily describes the use of land to sequester carbon in vegetation and soils. It also extends to reducing emissions and alternative land and animal management practices. Participating in activities such as carbon credits, biodiversity banking, and more can benefit landowners, including through enhanced water quality, livestock welfare, and the overall productivity of the land.
Here we share resources designed to inform and support primary producers in understanding the implications of these opportunities.
Mulgowie Farming Company's long relationship with BDO has enabled them to fully capitalise on emerging opportunities and find the right solutions to the challenges they've faced along their growth journey, while retaining their passion for sustainable farming practices and healthy produce.
Australian Bay Lobster Producers (ABLP) Limited were looking for the right partner to provide ongoing audit, tax and business services, while also maintaining the organisation's high standards of quality and sustainability. BDO has now been servicing ABLP since 2014.
