Drop-in to talk to us about farming

Need a hand getting your head around new farming regulations? We want to help.

There are a lot of new things happening in the farming space, with new practices to improve environmental outcomes being phased in. We know it can be confusing, so we're coming to a rural town near you to answer questions around:

• getting consent for winter grazing
• meeting the synthetic nitrogen fertiliser use limits
• reducing nitrogen leaching
• any other farming topics.
