Episode 154 - Unlocking New Capital to Transform Farming Assets – The GO.FARM Story

I have heard it said that “doing a traditional thing in a traditional industry may no longer be relevant.”

I have also heard it said that the point of entrepreneurship is to “create a legacy” … that is to create something that makes an impact of significance in the market, that will last beyond your lifetime.

Certainly, there are great examples of individuals and teams out there daring enough to be highly entrepreneurial, deeply strategic and very innovative in finding ways to ‘get it done’.

For mine, Liam Leneghan and his GO.Farm Story presents an outstanding example of this, in modern day Australian Agriculture.

Just over 10 years ago, GO.Farm Australia was simply an idea in the mind of a very credible and progressive Australian Agriculturalist.

Today, GO.FARM’s vision for transforming Australian agriculture has driven the development and management of $1.2B worth of agricultural assets, including 96,000ha of farmland producing high-value crops such as almonds, mandarins, tomatoes, winegrapes, grains, pulses and oilseeds.

With a strong focus on innovation through a Responsible Agriculture lens, GO.FARM’s investment strategies deliver a positive impact on its environment and local communities while generating significant wealth for its investors.

From an idea, combined with a deep determination to transform Australian farmland… GO.Farm is now a growing team of over 250 people, committed to this vision.

It is a truly compelling story, that I feel we can all learn from.

Through this, I am reminded of:

  • The benefits of being unconventional
  • That leadership starts with making informed and risk-aware predictions about the future
  • That business ownership is about being courageous and determined
  • The power of having conviction
  • Learning from mistakes and ‘going again’
  • The value in making unreasonable requests of people with influence
  • The importance of a commitment to our learning and growth
  • The importance of surrounding yourself in high-calibre people on this journey we all partake in business


Some individuals are truly pioneering and daring to make an impact.

Liam, I commend you on your courage, deep conviction and your modern-day pioneering. I hope our conversation pays some tribute to your impressive career and the successes of GO.Farm and your team.

Congratulations mate.
