Fencing and Water Maintenance

Over the next three years a key focus will be to ensure every paddock on the farm is stockproof and watered. This will allow effective grazing management, improve pasture growth and utilisation by an estimated 30%, and keep livestock out of environmentally sensitive and/or wahi tapu areas. Once maintenance of existing infrastructure is adequate, the improved production will be sufficient to fund a transformational shift in farm policy in future years.
