LAMB TRADING & DELAYPAY

πŸ‘ How One Producer Lifted Returns with DelayPay

When seasonal cashflow is tight but opportunities arise, DelayPay helps producers act quickly β€” buying inputs or livestock when it makes sense, not just when cash is available.

One DelayPay customer recently used our short-term funding solution to boost profits on both livestock and fodder:

Lamb Trade per Head

  • Purchased 180 lambs at $164 in December using DelayPay’s 3-month term (repayment value $177)
  • Sold in March at $228 per head, achieving a $51 profit per head after DelayPay

Hay Purchase

  • Bought 200 MT of vetch hay at $340 in April on a 3-month term (repayment value $367)
  • By July, spot price had lifted to $400, protecting feed supply while capturing price gains

By matching working capital to market timing, this producer kept operations moving β€” and maximised returns.

DelayPay gives Australian farmers the flexibility to:
βœ… Buy inputs or livestock when prices are right
βœ… Manage cashflow without disrupting production
βœ… Hold or sell at the most profitable time
