Through our Integrated Farm Planning project funding we have teamed up with Ballance Agri-Nutrients Farm Sustainability Services to deliver a workshop, held over 2 days, for you to create a freshwater farm plan (FWFP) that will set you on your way the FWFP national requirements or entry to farm assurance schemes such as NZFAP Plus.

  • Day 1: 9 February 2026, time TBC
  • Day 2: 23 February 2026, time TBC

New Government rules require all pastoral farms over 50 ha to have a Freshwater Farm Plan (FWFP).

What you’ll gain:

  • A compliant FWFP under the new regulations
  • Alignment with NZFAP Plus
  • A future-proofed, digital version of your plan
  • Expert guidance from Ballance farm sustainability specialists

You will use a tool developed by QCONZ (the auditors for NZFAP Plus), which you will use to identify and map farm infrastructure, land management units, critical source areas, list completed actions to date and add your actions going forward, plus many other aspects. Your access to this tool is your own and you can continue to use it for managing your farm freshwater plan going forward.  Topics included will cover the full NZFAP Plus requirements.

This workshop is fully funded including a 1-year subscription to the QCONZ tool for your farm plan.

Already have a plan? This is your opportunity to update and strengthen it.
