<\/figure>\n\nDuring the off-season, the farm has the opportunity to focus not on field work, but on strategic analysis. Right now it is convenient to assess the results of the year, forecast production volumes, review suppliers, set aside reserves for force majeure and plan investments. The financial plan for 2026 is the basis for negotiations with banks, funds, suppliers and partners. <\/p>\n\n
Assessment of Previous Season Results<\/strong><\/h2>\n\nBefore planning the new year, you need to summarize the financial results of the 2025 season:<\/p>\n\n
\n- how much did a hectare of cultivation cost by crops;
- what were the costs for equipment, repairs, fuel;
- how did prices for plant protection products, fertilizers, seeds change;
- how much profit or loss each field generated;
- which investments paid off and which did not.
This analysis will become the starting point for forming next year’s budget.<\/p>\n\n
Revenue Forecasting: Realistic and with Margin<\/strong><\/h2>\n\nIn an agricultural producer’s budget, it is important to approach revenue forecasting carefully. Consider: <\/p>\n\n
\n- average market prices (not peak);
- probable risks of falling purchase prices;
- expected yield based on agrochemical analysis and weather forecasts;
- storage possibilities and deferred sales.
It is good when the budget has two scenarios: basic (realistic) and conservative (minimum income + unforeseen expenses).<\/p>\n\n
Cost Optimization: where You Can save and where You Cannot<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n![\"\"](\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\")
<\/figure>\n\nBudget planning for 2026 should start with expense items. They can be conditionally divided into: <\/p>\n\n
\n- Mandatory<\/strong>: seeds, plant protection products, fuel and lubricants, rent, taxes;
- Variable<\/strong>: equipment modernization, additional crops, consulting services;
- Investment<\/strong>: irrigation, elevator facilities, IT solutions.
Saving on plant protection products or fertilizers is a path to reduced yields. Instead, it is worth reviewing approaches to storage, sales, partner selection and financing instruments. <\/p>\n\n
Lending, Installments and Financial Instruments<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n<\/figure>\n\nThe plan for 2026 cannot be imagined without attracting financial instruments. Today, a farmer has several options: <\/p>\n\n
\n- Installment<\/strong>: allows buying resources now and paying later from profit;
- Factoring<\/strong>: receive funds for future harvest;
- Bank lending<\/strong>: longer term, but more requirements for collateral and reporting;
- Leasing<\/strong>: equipment or machinery with monthly payments.
Online services, such as WEAGRO, allow you to quickly, without paperwork and visits, arrange installments for up to 180 days, which is especially relevant in autumn and winter.<\/p>\n

Sharp exchange rate fluctuations can destroy the plans of even the most disciplined farmer. To protect yourself: <\/p>\n\n
\n- form part of working capital in foreign currency;
- agree with suppliers on a fixed exchange rate;
- make reserves for exchange rate losses.
Similarly, inflation affects prices for fertilizers, logistics and wages. A reserve of 10\u201315% in the budget is reasonable protection. <\/p>\n\n
Personnel Costs and Efficiency Improvement<\/strong><\/h2>\n\nIn 2026, an increase in minimum wage and pressure on the payroll fund is expected. It is worth reviewing the team structure, investing in accounting automation, using CRM or agricultural platforms. Some services are better outsourced (accounting, audit, financial monitoring) than kept in-house. <\/p>\n\n
