About the Farm Business Resilience Program
The Farm Business Resilience Program was launched by the NSW Department of Primary Industries with support from the Australian Government's Future Drought Fund in 2021.
The program is developed specifically for farm businesses and their employees, rather than as a general business skills program. It aims to build the strategic management capacity of farmers, farm managers and employees to prepare for and manage risk, adapt to a changing climate and improve the economic, environmental and social resilience of their farm businesses.
The program takes a multi-faceted approach, offering farm Business Coaching, workshops and events and a creation of useful resources and tools plus digital learning resources with podcasts and webinars, for farmers across NSW.
The farm business coaching program in particular, provides peer-to peer experiences and knowledge sharing on a variety of relevant topics to highlight the social and economic benefits of forward business planning and investment.
The program supports farm businesses learning and development in four key areas including:
- Strategic business management and planning skills
- Risk management and informed decision making
- Natural resource management
- Personal and social resilience
