GO-STOCK FAQs
Do I need to hold a PGW account to use the GO-STOCK products?
Yes. If you do not currently have a PGW account, you will need to open one before you can be assessed for a GO-STOCK contract. Talk to your local livestock rep about this or contact the GO-STOCK team.
What are the costs of a GO-STOCK contract?
There are no initial outlays for you – PGW will buy the stock and when it comes time to sell, you will be paid the margin less the fees and normal selling costs. The fees are dependent on purchase price and how long you keep the animals on farm. These are detailed out in the contract you sign so there are no hidden costs and they do not change from when you sign the contract.
Am I still eligible if I don’t own any land?
We will assess anyone with current farming operations; leased or owned. If you are unsure if you are eligible, contact our GO-STOCK team.
How do I apply?
Get in contact with your local PGW livestock rep or alternatively contact the GO-STOCK team and we will point you in the right direction.
What happens if the stock are unsold when the contract time runs out?
You can buy the stock back at the purchase price plus the GO-STOCK Duration Adjustment fee and any selling costs. Alternatively, for GO-BEEF agreements, there is the possibility to put the cattle on a GO-BEEF Plus agreement which requires approval beforehand and will only be granted in exceptional circumstances.
How long can the stock remain on my property?
Depending on the type of stock you have on the contract (dairy, beef etc), this alters the maximum time stock can remain on farm. GO-BEEF – 360 days, GO-LAMB – 300 days GO-DEER – 360 days GO-DAIRY – 539 days. See specific product pages for more information.
Can PGW purchase stock that is already on my property?
Yes, PGW can purchase stock you already own to give you a cash injection and you can continue to farm your stock under a GO-STOCK contract.
How long does the application process take?
Typically contracts are approved within 48 hours from receiving final documentation. It is a quick and easy process – talk to your local livestock rep to get started or contact our GO-STOCK team.
