PrimeAg records $2.6m loss - ABC Online

Toowoomba-based agribusiness company PrimeAg has reported a multimillion dollar loss in its half-yearly results.


The listed company released the data yesterday, showing a $2.6 million loss.


PrimeAg is in the process of off-loading 60 per cent of its farmland to American assets manager TIAA-CREF for about $125 million.


Commonwealth Bank agribusiness analyst Jordan Rogers says the company's latest result is an improvement on last year.


"But still a pretty disappointing result," he said.


"What I would say though is the second half of PrimeAg's financial year is much more important given that it mainly harvests the cotton and the sorghum crop in that second half."
