Accountancy services for farming and agriculture

Supporting the UK’s farming heritage

Specialist services for agri-businesses

Farming and agriculture form the backbone of Britain’s countryside and food security, but running a modern agricultural business means navigating one of the most complex regulatory and financial landscapes of any industry. From volatile commodity prices and unpredictable weather to subsidy schemes and environmental regulations, farmers face challenges that most other businesses never encounter.

At Smethurst & Co, we understand that farming isn’t just a business – it’s often a way of life passed down through generations. We’ve been supporting agricultural businesses across Lincolnshire and the surrounding areas for decades.
