From the pursuit of higher yields, optimising profits in the short and long term, combining new technologies and assessing the impact on cash flow, to the return to more sustainable agriculture practices…there are many exciting opportunities and directions in agriculture these days and Owen hopes to make a difference for his clients by helping them navigate through it all.
