About 4FARMERS

Affordability
4Farmers was established due to the concern of WA farmers over the high cost of farm chemicals, and in particular the industry practice at the time of pricing according to the principal of “what the market will bear”, or more accurately “what the big suppliers thought farmers could bear”.
This practice enabled 4Farmers to import and supply Chlorsulfuron from China in 1995 for half the price of other suppliers at the time. Similarly, the fungicide Triadimefon that was sold for over $1000/20L now sells for around $110.
Thanks to the efforts of 4Farmers to provide low cost chemicals, farmers throughout Australia have been able to adopt a whole new range of crop protection strategies that were previously too costly to contemplate.

With a management, distribution and support team that includes farmers, ex farmers and scientists, 4Farmers has a unique blend of practical experience and technical skills. Our information sheets provide not only product information, but in some cases practical advice on application and usage.
