In this episode of The Engine Room mini-series, David sits down with Lisa Jeitz to unpack the hidden cost of using the wrong financial tools in a farm business.
Lisa is a grain grower from Esperance, a former agronomist and farm consultant, and host of the Farm Office Toolbox podcast, where she advocates for financial clarity and better systems in the farm office.
In this conversation, she shares what she learned from moving away from a farm-focused management accounting system, and why a tool that looks simple or cost-effective can quickly become expensive when it costs you time, reporting and confidence.
“I didn’t have the data I needed to make good decisions on time.”
Join us as David and Lisa focus on the difference between basic transaction processing and real farm business reporting. They cover why the right tools need to support cashflow, budgets, volume tracking and timely decision-making, not just records for tax time.
