Case Study: Te Awa Rua Station achieves smarter farm planning and fewer surprises with Figured

Te Awa Rua Station - Customer Case Study

Te Awa Rua Station needed a better way to manage its livestock movements and farm performance without complex technology. The station's manager, Tony Riley, sought a simple budgeting tool that could also provide real-time information for his accountant and farm advisor to aid in decision-making.

The station implemented the cloud-based software Figured, integrated with Xero. This solution provided a shared, real-time view of financial data, allowing the team to hold productive monthly meetings and update budgets easily. As a result, they eliminated financial surprises, improved communication with bankers and shareholders, and saved significant time on admin. This enabled them to focus on future profit-driving strategies and they have already seen tangible returns in lambs weaned and overall profit.
