Small group of farmers working together to understand their catchment. Currently undertaking quarterly water testing using a SHMAK+ kit. Have begun to compile a data set that will be used in future to generate a catchment factsheet and a catchment plan.
This group is running as an RMPP action group but is looking to expand to include some of the surrounding smaller catchments and morph into an incorporated society later in 2020.
