RCS - Resource Consulting Services
We genuinely care about the well-being of our clients.
Since 1985 we have worked with clients to see our vision for agriculture become a reality. RCS exists purely to see happy people running productive, profitable businesses using regenerative management practices that leave the land in a better condition than we started.
We work closely with you to help you through the challenges that implementing change can bring. It is the one thing to point out to you that you have a problem or need to improve in a particular area; it is another to be at your side leading and coaching you through the process.
That is the RCS difference.
We work closely with you to understand the complexity of your individual circumstance and work with you to develop a process to implement improvement that is customised to your unique situation and your ability to handle change.
We are committed to developing long-term relationships. We are renowned for our follow up support and become a “part” of most families and management teams we work with. RCS is now starting to work with a large number of 2nd and even 3rd generation clients!
RCS has the best clients! We also have a team of experienced and passionate people working across Australia. All of our key delivery people started as RCS clients! It is safe to say we can honestly empathise with you as we do our best to understand your unique circumstances.
If you didn’t get amazing value out of working with RCS, we wouldn’t still be here!

Our good friend, Dave Pratt, from Ranch Management Consultants writes “Ranching can make a healthy profit, thrive ecologically, stay in the family indefinitely and be the stimulus for revitalizing rural communities. You put your ranch on the path to achieve these results when you put the shovel down and pick up the pencil … when you start working on it, not just in it.”

Demo Day: The difference of David's no-till soil and soil from his new farm that was conventionally tilled.
“How many times do we need to hear something that positive, before we listen fully? I am mystified by my resistance, and a little disappointed in myself. However, old dogs can learn new tricks, it just takes time for some.”

Regenerative Agriculture makes sense - so why have I shunned it for 7 years? - Collective Intelligence
The ability to reflect is so important for your development and growth, so the experts say. And yep that’s fairly true. What these experts don’t say, is that you are going to uncover some very uncomfortable truths from time to time. This has been my reality over the past few months, and once aga...
