Farmers and Resilient Farming Tas (RFT) Program participants have shared a lot with us over recent months, including their topics of interest.

Scheduled to run for 45 minutes, the first half of the webinar will focus on knowledge exchange, with an opportunity for you to then have a Q&A session with our expert facilitators. These webinars are free and will guide you through the resources and tools that are available from the RFT Program.

Using Partial Budgeting in your Farm Business
Tuesday, 8 October 2024
Facilitated by Tristan Wardley, Sasha Brightman and Morag Anderson
Every farm business wants to learn more about being smart when it comes to managing money and making good financial decisions. Using their applied experience working with farmers and agribusinesses, Tristan, Sasha and Morag will demonstrate how to use a tool called a ‘partial budget’ to evaluate the potential financial impact of a proposed change to farm operations. There also will be an opportunity for Q&A where you can ask our facilitators any other finance or business management related questions.
Grants & Diversification
Tuesday, 15 October 2024
Facilitated by Allison Clark and Sasha Brightman
What opportunities are out there? Are they right for me? How do I apply to maximise my chance of success? These are the questions we often hear our farmers asking. Allison from Optimum Standard and Sasha from RMCG have both successfully worked with many farm businesses on their grant applications. They can help you to plan for grants and optimise your ability to tap into opportunities when they arise. The webinar will help you gain information on what is available now and learn tips on the things you can do to build a strong case to receive a grant for your farm business.
