YOUNG farmers across Victoria have been invited to come together for farm finance workshops at a number of locations, as well as to network and ask questions.

Agriculture Victoria young farmer coordinator, Sarah Wallis, said it was wonderful to be able to offer the Farm Finance – Getting Prepared sessions as in-person events after having to shift to an online format for the past two years.

“This year it’s about coming together, being together and interacting with our financial specialists to ask those burning finance questions in a safe space,” she said.

“Our take on this is to provide the kind of experts at these workshops who can cut through the ‘bank speak’ and enable young farmers to be well prepared when applying for financing.”

ORM agribusiness consultant, Jane Foster said the workshops would be an opportunity to have open and transparent conversations about farm finance and get some tips on how to communicate in ‘bank speak’.

“By the end of the session participants will have a new clarity on finance and how the whole system works,” she said.

The session will be held in Horsham from 6-8.30pm on Wednesday, June 1.
