Welcome

This online resource is designed to provide farmers with ideas about how to improve their on-farm environmental management. There are simple solutions and techniques to help with most on-farm environmental issues.

This information is intended as a guideline and can be used to:

• Identify environmental risks on your farm
• Improve your on-farm land and water management
• Ensure your farming practices are sustainable and defendable
• Educate staff about best practice on your farm
• Develop a plan for your farm's management in the future.

We will continue to add new information and update it regularly.

If you have any further queries, just phone a Resource Care Officer at Environment Canterbury and they will help you in any way they can.
