Greater Wellington hosts IFP workshops to meet future requirements
“I would not have been able to complete the plan without the assistance of these workshops.”
That was just one piece of feedback from a farmer after a recent farm environment planning workshop held in Wairarapa in February.
There were two sets of workshops held – in Kāpiti and Wairarapa – with two full-day workshops in each region, spread over two weeks. The workshops were led by the Ballance Farm Sustainability team and attracted 10 farmers, evenly split across both regions.
The workshops focused on freshwater farm planning and ran through a step-by-step process on how to set up and work through the online QCONZ Freshwater Farm Plan tool.
