Catchment Group Management.

Catchment groups have become a key means for farmers to collectively act to improve their environment, sharing ideas, knowledge, and goals. As these groups have gained greater recognition from government agencies, their ability influence the direction of environmental management has given farmers more voice and control than ever before. 

Total Ag’s consultants have been on the ground with several groups from the start, and have built up a depth of experience invaluable for advising new groups starting up, or established groups needing some direction.

From the basics of incorporating a group to setting its direction and goals, Total Ag consultants can play a role in getting them on the right path.
