Advanced Farm Environment Planning
Developed with the support of the Fertiliser Association of New Zealand (FANZ), this course will provide students with the detailed knowledge and integrated skills necessary to produce New Zealand industry-standard, farm-scale, freshwater Farm Environment Plans for dairy, beef and sheep and arable farms. These plans will identify existing and potential soil, greenhouse gas, pathogen, and nutrient loss pathways, the sources of these losses, and will provide justification for a range of options to mitigate the impact of the farm system on freshwater bodies.
