Beyond the Bottom Line – Tackling Rising Costs with Smarter Margins
Covering: Gross margins, rising input costs, and alternative income streams
Farming businesses are under more pressure than ever. Rising input costs, volatile markets, and the loss of predictable support payments mean every decision counts, and every hectare must work harder.
Our new Agri-intelligence Insight Report brings together expert analysis, on-farm trials, and real grower experience to help you protect profitability and build resilience in a changing landscape.
What's in the Report?
- The latest gross margin data: clear, farm-tested figures showing how different crops and rotations are performing in 2025/26.
- Real case studies: including how Steve Hockley uses gross margins to guide cropping strategy on challenging chalk soils.
- Agrii R&D results: from nitrogen-use efficiency and precision farming to yellow rust control and new fungicide strategies.
- Alternative income streams: carbon credits, biodiversity net gain, and sustainable grain programmes explained clearly.
- Actionable insights: how to benchmark, budget, and make smarter agronomic decisions without increasing risk.
Why Gross Margins?
Margins aren’t just numbers on a spreadsheet. They’re the foundation of every decision you make on farm, from rotation planning to fertiliser spend and environmental options.
This report shows where efficiencies can be gained, where investments pay back, and where new opportunities could add value, all backed by independent research and data from Agrii’s national trials network.
Who It’s For
This Insight Report is written for:
- Farmers and growers looking for evidence-based guidance
- Agronomists and advisers supporting business planning
- Land owners and consultants needing clear data to benchmark performance
Whether you’re planning next year’s budgets or reviewing the last harvest, it’s designed to give you practical intelligence, not theory.
