Accountants for farmers — averaging, reliefs and succession handled, so the farm stays in the family

The bits no one warns you about
Volatile incomes, complex reliefs and a valuable estate make farm tax genuinely specialist — and getting it wrong can mean overpaying in good years or a crippling Inheritance Tax bill on succession.
A general accountant rarely knows farmers’ averaging, Agricultural Property Relief or the herd basis, leaving farmers exposed exactly where the stakes are highest.
- Incomes that swing wildly year to year
- Farmers’ averaging to smooth your tax
- Agricultural and Business Property Relief on the estate
- Diversification income (lets, events, energy) to handle
- Grants and subsidies to account for
- Passing the farm on without a huge IHT bill
Everything handled, under one roof
Farming income swings wildly year to year, the tax rules are unlike any other sector — farmers’ averaging, Agricultural Property Relief, the herd basis — and passing the farm on without a huge Inheritance Tax bill takes years of planning.
We’re specialist agricultural accountants. We handle your farm accounts and tax, use averaging and the reliefs available to farmers, advise on diversification and grants, and plan succession so the farm stays in the family.

The honest answers to what you’re thinking
How much does a farm accountant cost?
A typical family farm’s accounts and tax often run from around £1,500 to £3,000 a year, depending on size and complexity. We agree a fixed fee up front, and the reliefs and averaging we apply usually outweigh it.
What is farmers’ averaging?
It lets farmers average their profits over two (or five) years to smooth out the swings, reducing tax in good years. We work out whether it benefits you and apply it.
Will my family face Inheritance Tax on the farm?
Often it can be greatly reduced or removed through Agricultural and Business Property Relief and careful succession planning — but it needs to be done early. We’ll build a plan for you.
Can you handle diversified income?
Yes — holiday lets, events, renewable energy and other diversification income are all part of what we account for.
