Australia ·
Elders is an Australian agribusiness group headquartered in Adelaide that has been supporting producers since 1839. It serves farms through a network of branches and specialists, combining the sale of farm inputs and advisory support with livestock and wool marketing. The group also offers real estate services for rural, residential and commercial property, and through AIRR it runs a wholesale business that supplies independent rural retailers. In November 2025 it completed the acquisition of Delta Agribusiness.
For a farm, Elders can cover both sides of the business. On the input side it sells fertilisers, seeds, crop protection, animal health products and general farm supplies, backed by agronomic and livestock advice. On the output side its agents help market cattle, sheep and other livestock, and its wool business helps growers prepare and sell their clip. Livestock agents arrange sales through auctions and direct channels, with commission, documentation and the scope of support agreed for each sale.
