Why it matters
Use every relief available to you
Farmers can claim reliefs that most businesses cannot. Stock relief reduces the tax on increases in stock value, with higher rates for young trained farmers and registered farm partnerships. Income averaging lets farmers spread profits over five years to smooth out good and bad years.
Agricultural co-operatives have their own reporting and audit requirements, and food processors face RCT on meat processing and strict stock and margin control.
We know these rules and apply them to your business, so you pay the right tax and meet every deadline.

FAQ
Common questions
What is stock relief?
Stock relief reduces the taxable profit of a farmer by a percentage of the increase in stock value during the year. The rate is higher for young trained farmers and registered farm partnerships.
What is income averaging?
Income averaging lets a farmer be taxed on the average of their farming profits over five years, which smooths out the tax bill between good and bad years.
Do you audit co-operatives?
Yes. We audit agricultural and dairy co-operative societies and report to their boards and members.
Do you work with food processors?
Yes, including meat and dairy processors. We prepare accounts, carry out audits and help with RCT on meat processing contracts.
Do I need to be in Dublin to work with you?
No. We work with farmers and co-ops across Ireland, by phone, email and video call.
