Xero goes rural

The alliance will build on the products Xero has developed to date, to tailor accounting and other applications specifically for the rural market.

This will integrate online banking, which currently many farmers can't access, along with other data sets such as dairy or lamb receipts and farm inputs.

Xero chief executive Rod Drury says the firm's accounting partners have asked the company to extend Xero to support the requirements of the rural sector.

"Working with Federated Farmers gives us direct access to consult with industry experts in farming productivity and accounting," he says.

Farm advisers can also be invited to collaborate in Xero, ensuring everyone is on the same page.
