How FITT works
Grants are made for one year and generally have a ceiling of $10,000. They allow local farming groups to get technical help and cover some of the costs associated with the analysis and learning around their selected issue.
Generally farmer groups also contribute some of their own money or time to the project.
Keeping track of progress
As part of the grant, progress and final reports are required and a communication plan must be developed to inform the wider community of the results.
Who can apply?
All New Zealand sheep or beef farmers are welcome to apply. There should be at least three farmers in a group.
