As part of the Tight Management campaign, local Tight Management farms have illustrated low-cost farming and management techniques successfully used on-farm.
These farms provided a forum for dairy farmers to discuss tactical decisions at a local level, with host farmers describing the monitoring systems in place which ensure their businesses remain profitable. Monthly on-farm forums discussed key management decisions, along with regular updates through community newspapers and email.
