More than 20 farming organisations have been invited to distribute the survey to their members.

Results will be collated, and aggregate results will be shared between all participating organisations in early 2020.

The purpose of the survey is to inform the industry of the efficacy of current programs and the possible future needs for sustainable farming practices.

To ensure consistency, the same questions across all membership cohorts (state and industry farming organisations) will be the basis of the survey.

The survey is open until 12 December 2019.

AgSafe is encouraging participation in the survey over the next month. The survey can be completed at: https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/IBC_Survey
