If succession planning is on your radar and you are not sure how to involve the whole family in the process, the Rural Governance Development Programme helps to establish a safe zone for collaboration and communication.

Farmers are already experiencing the impact of climate change firsthand. Building resilience into your farm system will be key to coping with changing weather patterns, increased temperatures, and adverse events.

Tree planting on your dairy farm can provide multiple benefits including potentially earning carbon credits in the ETS.

The loss of sediment from a farm can affect farm productivity, as well as the health of waterways. The good news is there are on-farm actions that can help.

Thriving biodiversity supports dairy farming by enhancing water quality, reducing soil erosion, and providing habitats for native species.

The collaborative Waimea catchment project is driving successful outcomes for meeting future nitrogen limits and staying profitable.

DairyBase provides a range of benchmarks for dairy farmers based on ownership, location, and production system, such as organic or winter milk farms.

A collaborative project is underway between farmers, DairyNZ and other stakeholders in South Canterbury, to analyse and support implementation of solutions that further decrease nitrogen in water and help ensure farmers can meet plan change rules.

When it comes to improving water quality, what does best practice look like? Join us as we talk to DairyNZ Senior Water Quality Scientist Dr Katrina Macintosh and AgResearch Senior Scientist Dr Richard Muirhead.

We have completed a four-year trial at Scott Farm in the Waikato, validating the Forage Value Index (FVI) under typical farm management conditions.
