Rushtons Farming Partnership

Agricultural Insolvency Rescue & Restructure
Supporting Farmers, Vets, and Rural Businesses Through Financial Distress
Agriculture-related businesses face unique pressures — volatile markets, rising input costs, disease outbreaks, and unpredictable weather. At Rushtons Insolvency, we understand that these challenges require more than standard insolvency advice. They demand sector specific insight, practical restructuring options, and a deep understanding of how farms and their suppliers actually operate.
A Specialist Team for Rural Recovery
Led by director Ivan McKenzie, and strengthened by our partnership with Graham Shepherd a veterinary and agricultural specialist, we offer a dedicated service tailored to the realities of modern farming & agri-business. This combined expertise allows us to:
• Assess the true operational health of livestock, arable & supply businesses
• Understand the impact of herd health, welfare, and productivity on financial viability
• Work sensitively with families under pressure
• Build restructuring plans that reflect seasonal cycles and long term land management
What We Do
• Early stage intervention to stabilise cashflow and prevent escalation
• Business reviews grounded in both financial and agricultural performance
• Rescue and restructuring strategies designed around the farm’s assets, land, livestock, and future potential
• Formal insolvency solutions where required, delivered with discretion and empathy
• Liaison with lenders, suppliers, and regulators to protect the business and reduce stress on the owners
Why Agricultural Expertise Matters
Farms are not like other businesses. Livestock health, crop cycles, environmental schemes, and welfare obligations all influence financial outcomes. Our combined financial and agricultural knowledge ensures that every recommendation is:
• Practical for real world farm operations
• Compliant with industry and welfare standards
• Focused on long term sustainability, not short term fixes
