Birds Eye View with FarmSAT

Birds Eye View

FarmSat is a self-assessment tool that has been designed to help producers think about their current farming practices.

This tool has been developed in conjunction with industry and NRM committee representatives to assist you to identify issues; and form action plans that will enable you to meet legal and regulatory requirements.

Until the 30th of June you have the opportunity to access a facilitator, such as myself, free of charge to guide you through the assessment process.

One of the primary aims of this program is to ensure that you are aware of environmental incentives and or help you gain access to new markets opportunities.

FarmSat is made up of a series of questions based on your current farming management practices such as management of soil, nutrients, water, chemicals, pest, weeds, and vegetation.

The program is not a test it is simply a tool for you (and you only) to track your progress and help you fill any knowledge gaps.

This project is funded by the Australian Government through the NHT Pathways to Industry Environmental Management Systems (EMS) Program, Tasmanian Farmers and Graziers Association (TFGA) and is delivered by Rural Development Services (RDS) with support from Rural Connections.
