Agricutural business plans at an affordable price.
Value Ag consultants are committed to assisting clientele in integrating market and financial information with management capabilities and strategic planning.

Create your business road map.
Whether as a start-up or rapidly growing agribusiness, Value Ag’s experienced consultants work with clients to develop innovative business plans that support creative and critical thinking.
Make an informed decision, conduct a feasibility study.
Feasibility studies should be conducted when considering the launch of a product, offering a service or opening a facility. A feasibility study is a preliminary study undertaken to determine and document a project’s economic viability. The results of the study are used to make a decision whether to proceed with the project, or reject it.
In an unbiased assessment of your business opportunity, Value Ag consultants provide an easy to understand study that:
- summarizes market opportunities
- assesses competition
- profiles the desired demographics of your target market
- provides pro forma financial analysis
Knowledge is power.
Feel confident about your business decisions when Value Ag consultants provide a comprehensive, yet easy to understand assessment of your company’s place in the market and financial future. This comprehensive study may be used to acquire financing from lenders or investors in your project.
Assess your company's future with a financial projection.
Regardless of your company’s existing or planned scope of business, financial planning is a crucial component of success in today’s business environment. Pro forma financial projections allow management to:
- develop forecasts
- assess possible funding needs
- explore the likely financial consequences of alternative funding, marketing or operational strategies.
Value Ag consultants include financial sensitivity analysis for critical operational factors.
Develop your business with grant money.
Grants are a popular means to source funds to:
- investigate a new technology or business idea
- hire legal counsel
- help start-up a business
- provide operating dollars to support an existing business
Value Ag consultants have experience with:
- USDA Value Added Producer Planning and Working Capital Grants
- Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) grants
- Federal State Marketing Improvement Program (FSMIP) grants
- Emerging Markets Program (EMP) grants targeting international marketing
- and various other state and federal grant opportunities
Our success rate is because of you.
We have a high success rate because we involve the client from start to finish. We will not accept a grant writing opportunity if we feel that concept does not have a high probability of success. We will convey our assessment to you up front and free of charge.
Loan guarantees will keep your business moving.
USDA business and Industry (B&I) loan guarantees can make the difference between seeing a business idea move to an operating business instead of seeing the business idea end. We have the expertise to provide clients with packaging B&I loan guarantee applications, even for those starting with little or no information.
We'll guide you from start to finish.
The key parts of the B&I loan guarantee application include an up-to-date feasibility study and business plan, financial assessment, assessment of local and regional key business factors, and information supporting impact of business on agriculture.
