Financial auditing is a structured and essential process that evaluates a company's financial statements and reports to ensure accuracy, integrity, and compliance with standards and regulations. In agribusiness, a sector characterized by complex financial operations and factors such as seasonality, commodity prices, rural credit, and tax incentives, financial auditing gains even more relevance. It offers reliable information to investors, creditors, and regulators, fundamental to the success of input suppliers, farms, agricultural and agro-industrial companies.

Although financial auditing is not mandatory for all companies, it is essential for businesses that are publicly traded, receive public financing, or operate with specific credit lines, strengthening the trust of partners and demonstrating transparency and accountability. This practice is especially valuable in agribusiness, which requires high external investments and long-term financing.

Financial auditing, especially when adapted to agribusiness, adds value in several aspects:

• Increased Credibility: Agribusiness companies gain greater credibility with investors, shareholders, banks and partners, something vital in a sector subject to external variables such as climate, pests, and exchange rate changes.
• Error and Fraud Detection: Rigorous financial auditing makes it possible to identify errors and fraud, offering an accurate view of the financial situation. This makes it possible to correct problems before they affect critical operations, such as harvesting and processing the crop.
• Insights for Management: In agribusiness, financial auditing can provide observations on market trends and recommendations to optimize processes and strategies, ensuring efficiency and sustainability in a sector with constant innovation.
• Compliance and Tax Benefits: Ensuring compliance with rules and regulations, including subsidies and tax incentives, is essential for longevity in agribusiness. Financial auditing ensures that the company meets these requirements, avoiding penalties and maintaining access to tax benefits and incentive programs.

Studies prove the effectiveness of financial auditing as a strategic tool for business continuity. According to the Harvard Business Review, companies that carry out external audits are less likely to go bankrupt or unwanted acquisitions, while research from Purdue University shows that audited companies achieve greater financial performance in the long term, an important differential in agribusiness, where the life cycle of operations is extensive and capital-intensive.

In agribusiness, where financial health depends on the efficient management of assets, liabilities, costs and revenues, financial auditing becomes an essential resource to optimize the operation, reduce unnecessary costs and strengthen the confidence of investors and creditors.
