This month we continue the theme of planning, not business planning but farm development planning and approvals. My guest, Wendy Goodburn, a NSW DPIRD Land Use Planner joins us to explain the development and recent release of a fantastic, freely available online tool called myFarmPlanner. myFarmPlanner assists farmers, planners, consultants and local government with the pre-lodgement process for development applications related to on farm developments and upgrades. It is designed for the dairy, horticulture, poultry and agritourism industries in NSW.
While this is an audio only podcast and while we can’t actually show you what the tool looks like, you can view our recently recorded Dairy Breakfast webinar which was very well received and shows the tool being used live with a NSW dairy farm. A link to the recording is in the show notes and can also be found on the NSW Agriculture YouTube page in the Dairy playlist.
