Agriculture

Agriculture has always been one of Canada’s most prominent industries. Since 1945, MNP’s agriculture team has proudly worked alongside farmers and processors to keep their agricultural businesses current, competitive and profitable. Our business advisors, financial experts and professional agrologists are intimately familiar with all aspects of the agriculture industry and many are involved in their family farm operations to this day. As well, members of our firm have provided consultation at the industry and government levels and continue to be consulted on many issues that face the agricultural industry. Our agricultural consultants are known as leading advisors in agriculture across Canada.

MNP is rooted in rural areas and currently provides advice to over 15,000 clients in farming and related agricultural sectors. Our advisors assist hundreds of agriculture producers each year, both individuals and corporations. Working closely with our clients, we help them develop strategies and business plans which assess viability and assist in obtaining financing for agricultural ventures in almost every agricultural sector in Canada. Working at the industry and government levels, we are experts in the structure and processes of Canada’s unique supply management system for dairy, chicken, eggs, turkey and broiler hatching eggs.

Food & ag processing is an evolving industry that has experienced tremendous growth in recent years. In order for food & ag processing businesses to remain competitive, many producers are transitioning into food processing and other value-added services. New skill sets and additional resources are required to offer quality goods and services. At the same time, industry consolidation, health and safety requirements, trade concerns and other issues have created a complex matrix that is difficult to navigate alone. At MNP, we understand the dynamics and factors affecting these businesses locally, nationally and globally. MNP has a proven track record assisting traditional food & ag processing businesses as well as emerging enterprises in many new and innovative food & ag processing ventures.

Our knowledge base in agriculture includes 16 full-time agrologists with wide sector experience. Many of our agrologists are partners and leaders in the firm, setting us apart among Canada’s major accounting and consulting firms in our ability to understand and better serve your industry.
