Led by farmers, for farmers, Good Farm is designed to help you thrive. The Hub shares tools, resources, and events to support your agri-business and protect the environment.
The Good Farm project looks at how planning can help your agribusiness, and how to assess nine core farm planning topics for your farm and bring them together into a single approach.
Some farmers will have done more planning than others, so Good Farm is set up to provide different stages of targeted information, resources and expertise, relative to where you’re at in your journey.
Where do you want to be in five years? In 25 years? The first step in planning is to decide your vision for where you want to get to. This stage is about having a goal, and business plan with clear, achievable steps to get you there. And this starts with knowing where your business and finances are at now.
This stage of Good Farm is for people looking for a source of clear advice on what is needed to meet government regulation, as a sound starting point for any planning work.
A key goal of the Good Farm project is to support farm businesses keen to get ahead of incoming regulatory and market challenges by bringing them better information on how to integrate changes across the whole farm system.
The Good Farm Planning Hub is part of the Good Farm project and is a place to find resources and events to support your agri-business journey. The Good Farm project is a three year project run by Taranaki Catchment Communities and funded by MPI’s Integrated Farm Planning Accelerator Fund.
