Accountant Limerick understands farming and agriculture in Limerick and the Golden Vale region. We know the land, the seasons, and the financial realities of Irish farming. Whether you're running a dairy operation in Adare, growing tillage crops across County Limerick, or providing agricultural contracting services, standard accounting doesn't get farming. Focus on your land and livestock, we'll handle the paperwork and planning.
CAP payments, GLAS schemes, and agricultural grants, we track applications, monitor payments, and ensure proper documentation. Our systems help you maximise available support while meeting all Department requirements and deadlines.
Which enterprises make money and which are costing you? We track costs per hectare, livestock margins, and seasonal variations to show you where your real profits come from and where you might need to make changes.
Averaging relief, stock relief, and capital gains - farming has unique tax rules that can save you serious money. We time cattle sales, plan land transactions, and structure your affairs to minimise tax while staying compliant.
Farm money doesn't come in every month like a regular job. We help you bridge the gaps between when the co-op pays you, when the harvest cheque arrives, or when you sell cattle, ensuring you can still pay the bills during the quiet months.
Buying new machinery, upgrading buildings, or purchasing more land are big decisions that can shape your farm for decades. We work out what you can afford to borrow, what grants might be available, and whether the investment will pay for itself over time.
Keeping the farm in the family involves complex tax considerations. We help structure farm transfers, optimise inheritance tax relief, and ensure the next generation can afford to continue farming.
Technology That Works on the Farm
Mobile-friendly systems that work even with patchy rural broadband. Upload receipts from the mart, check your numbers from the tractor cab, and access reports whether you're in the yard or at the kitchen table.
Long-Term Agricultural Focus
We know that what you decide today affects your children and grandchildren who might farm this land someday. Our advice looks beyond this year's bottom line to whether your farm will still be viable and profitable for the next generation.
We Know Farming Life
Our accountants understand that farming isn't just a business, it's a way of life with unpredictable income, weather risks, and multi-generational considerations. We provide advice that works for real farming families, not just balance sheets.
Rural Ireland Expertise
Qualified accountants serving agricultural communities throughout the Mid-West. We understand Department regulations, co-op structures, and the financial challenges of farming in an increasingly competitive environment.
Farm Enterprise Assessment
We visit your holding to understand your operation, discuss your challenges with weather, markets, and regulations, and identify the most effective financial management approach for your specific situation.
Agricultural System Setup
We implement record-keeping that matches farming reality - from field-by-field costings to livestock tracking systems that integrate with your existing farm management practices and co-op requirements.
Seasonal Financial Management
We know you're flat out during harvest and calving season, so we keep things simple then. When things quiet down and you actually have time to sit down with a cup of tea, that's when we dive into the detailed planning and reviews.
Annual Planning & Budgeting
Sit-down sessions to plan what you'll grow next year, how many cattle you can carry, and whether you can afford that new shed or machinery - all based on what's happening in the markets, what grants are on offer, and what your farm can actually handle financially.
Department Compliance & Returns
Complete preparation of agricultural returns, ensuring all farm income is properly declared and all available reliefs are claimed while maintaining records that satisfy Department audits.
We've been working with all kinds of farms, dairy, beef, tillage, for years. We can tell when you've had a genuinely good year versus just getting lucky with the weather or prices, and we know how quickly things can change when the Department brings in new rules.
We create financial plans that account for seasonal payments, weather variations, and market volatility. Our cash flow forecasts help you manage during quiet periods and plan for major expenses.
We establish straightforward systems for tracking field operations, livestock movements, and grant compliance. Our templates work with farming reality and ensure you're always ready for inspections.
We specialise in farm transfer planning that minimises tax and ensures financial viability for the next generation. Our approach considers both current tax relief and long-term farm sustainability.
We understand co-operative structures, share valuations, and partnership agreements. Whether you're already farming with family or neighbors, or thinking about joining forces with someone, we'll help you work out the financial side of things so everyone knows where they stand.
Stop worrying about the paperwork piling up on the kitchen table and start focusing on making your farm more profitable with accounting that actually gets what farming is all about.
