Accounting expertise built for farmers and agribusiness operators
Ag accounting isn't a side offering here. Our team knows farming because we grew up farming. When you partner with us, you'll have insightful advice and guidance from people who have lived through the challenges of living off the land and reaped the rewards of hard work. Farmers and agribusiness operators in the Brookings, SD, area and across the broader Midwest heartland, come to TruCount because we understand the tax code that actually applies to a farm balance sheet: income averaging, deferred grain contracts, multi-entity structures, and the timing decisions that come with a fluctuating crop year.
Two areas we bring up with ag clients that often get missed elsewhere: the R&D credit for farmers investing in new seed varieties, equipment, or production methods, and the excess fertility deduction for buyers taking on soil nutrient value in a land purchase. Both can mean real dollars back in your operation if someone knows to ask about them.
We also work with farm families on succession and multi-entity tax strategy as operations grow across generations. Learn about our agriculture services, including farm succession planning and multi-entity farm tax strategy.
CFO-level insight for professional service businesses
Whether you're running a chiropractic practice, an architecture firm, or a consulting business in Brookings or anywhere across the Midwest, you're already managing client relationships, staff, and service delivery. Understanding your margins shouldn't fall to the bottom of that list. TruCount gives professional service business owners CFO-level financial insight, delivered through regular advisory sessions, at a fraction of what it costs to hire a controller.
That includes entity structuring so you're not overpaying in taxes as you grow, year-round tax planning instead of a once-a-year appointment, and outsourced accounting support that keeps your books current without adding headcount. If you're weighing a sale or ownership transition down the road, we can help with that too.
