Farming is a unique business. Earning your living off the land depends on so many variables including world markets, the health of your livestock or crops and, of course, the unpredictable Australian weather.
Just as an experienced farmer has a sixth sense for the land, we at Dry Kirkness have a true understanding of the financial ups and downs of agribusiness. In fact, we first started working with Western Australian farmers way back in 1945 and have been growing our client base ever since.
We’ve worked with generations of farmers across the Wheatbelt, the Goldfields and in the Esperance region. Our clients are primary producers who specialise in grazing livestock or growing wheat, barley and canola.
As well as providing general farming-related financial advice, we also advise those who are looking to invest or grow their business; and the sale and acquisition of farms and land.
The Dry Kirkness team has a collective knowledge base spanning 50 years and has seen fluctuating economic conditions, the rise and fall of commodity prices and both floods and droughts. Our team’s ready to help you through the good times – and the bad – by helping you manage your business more effectively and profitably.

Western Power have recently joined WAFarmers as a communications partner.
Western Power is a Western Australian State Government owned corporation responsible for building, maintaining and operating an electricity network that connects our 2.3 million customers to traditional and renewable energy sources, delivering an essential service to our community.
For more than 70 years, we’ve been providing West Australians with safe, reliable and efficient energy. Our vast transmission and distribution network, and the people behind it, seamlessly connect our homes, businesses and essential community infrastructure to an increasingly renewable energy mix, supercharging our vibrant West Australian lifestyle.
Our philosophy is to provide an end-to-end solution that is as agnostic at each point as possible. Where there isn’t existing solutions available we develop our own. Where there are solutions available we look for best of breed or best fit for purpose. We love collaborations and partnerships and think this is the best way to solve real problems with real solutions.
We take the view that data has value and the farmer or the business owns their data – real time, IoT, machine generated, accumulated records and historical information – and aim to reinforce this by providing the tools and access necessary. We are playing our part in digitising agribusiness.
HOW TO BECOME A SPONSOR
Would you like your business to be aligned with the state’s largest and most influential agricultural advocacy group in Western Australia? Become a WAFarmers corporate partner!
WAFarmers boasts a membership of over 3,500 farmers throughout WA and continues to work directly with farmers on issues related to their on-farm business so that we can achieve a more viable, profitable and sustainable future for the agricultural industry.
As part of this pursuit, WAFarmers develops corporate partnerships with companies who provide a service to WAFarmers Members, which place money directly back into farmers pockets. In turn, corporate partnerships can help like-minded organisations achieve their marketing and branding goals, and expand their client base.
Partnering with WAFarmers provides the following benefits:
-
Integration
Unlike many other sponsorships, a WAFarmers partnership is, in essence, an on-going integrated branding, marketing and communications campaign for your organisation. WAFarmers is able to provide you with a marketing package that will complement, or even form the basis of, your marketing activities in rural WA. -
Tailored campaigns and sponsorships
WAFarmers offers your organisation the flexibility to run tailored campaigns, at specific times of your choosing, that are targeted to particular geographic regions, commodities, and age groups. WAFarmers is also happy to negotiate a tailor-made sponsorship package that is specifically designed to meet the needs of your organisation. -
Brand association with WAFarmers
WAFarmers has spent its 100-plus-year history building influence and trust within the agricultural industry, and having your brand associated with ours instantly creates positive connotations and credibility towards your organisation. When WAFarmers forms a relationship with a company it shows our support for that organisation, and indicates to our members that this is an organisation that they too can trust. -
Supporting WA’s farmers
And of course, in addition to the promotional opportunities for your organisation, you will also be financially supporting WAFarmers, and by extension, supporting the state’s farmers. Your contribution will enable us to continue all of the hard work we do, advocating on behalf of WA’s farming and agricultural industries. WAFarmers simply wouldn’t exist without our corporate supporters.
For more information about becoming a partner of WAFarmers, contact WAFarmers CEO Trevor Whittington by emailing [email protected] or calling (08) 9486 2100. Let’s work together to a build bigger, better and stronger agricultural industry for WA!
