Why Homestead Ag?
To create meaningful accounting data for farmers. Our aim is to help farmers manage their ‘business’ as well as their farming. This can mean helping with your farm cashbook, helping you to create and use a farm budget, consulting with you on your big decisions, or supporting you with regular farm management analysis. Homestead Ag works with our agricultural clients to ensure they are using the right tools, creating meaningful data for their farm business, and using this data to take action to improve.
Live and meaningful management accounting for farms. We understand and specialise in accounting for Australian agriculture.
Choosing the right tools
Is your bookkeeping system up to date? How much is automated? Are all of your invoices captured in one place?
The right tools should make your time in the office easier, faster and less frustrating. Using the right tools for you, and having the training and support to use them correctly, can increase the efficiency of your operation – and free up your time for more important things.
Creating meaningful data
What does your data tell you? If you’re just looking at the numbers for your BAS, then you’re missing out!
Is your farm budget helping tell you what’s working and what you need to change? Farm accounting is so much more than tax! Meaningful data can help you build your farm, answer your questions, and plan the future – including your map to get there.
Taking action
The ATO has the BAS and the bank has the budget, so the job’s done, right? Not even close!
Regularly comparing real time actual results to budgeted expectations can challenge or affirm assumptions. It forms the basis for informed decision making. Homestead Ag can help you prepare and analyse reports, created using your own meaningful data.

About Court McCauley, CA
I believe that good accounting for Australian farmers is not just preparing a tax return or financial statements, but full management accounting – farm budgeting, variance analysis, and discussions with your advisor about what’s actually going on.
Growing up on a beef cattle and cropping property near Cowra in Central West NSW instilled a lifelong love of agriculture, that has only grown as I’ve experienced different sectors of Australian farming.
As a Chartered Accountant with more than 10 years experience in regional NSW, including Cowra, Dubbo, and Moree, I have discovered that my passion is partnering with innovative farmers and farming families to build more successful and resilient farming businesses.
Today I live back near Cowra with my husband and three small children. I work with farmers to understand and continuously improve their businesses.
