RESEARCH TEAM

Help set the Kondinin Group research agenda

Help guide the Kondinin Group research program by filling in the NAS, open until the end of April.

This article is 3 years old. Images might not display.

The NAS guides much of the research work Kondinin Group performs and enables farmers to direct our research plan.

Our 2022 NAS is now live and we would like you to help us help you by taking the time to fill it in. It will take about 10 minutes in its newly trimmed-up format.

It can be filled in at www.farmingahead.com.au/nas 

Prefer a hard copy? Kondinin Group members will have seen a hard copy questionnaire stuck to the front of their March Farming Ahead magazine which they can fill in and post back to us free of charge. 

Data collected via the NAS guides us as to what readers want us to research. We take your suggestions and feedback seriously and our research program is a direct result of what you tell us when filling in the NAS.

We also want to hear what we can do better and how we can improve Farming Ahead to better serve your farming business.

We have further refined the NAS questions to make them as simple and quick as possible to answer with multiple choice answers and tick-boxes wherever possible.

If making sure we know what you need isn't incentive enough, we will be giving away five randomly selected, free memberships nationally to those who fill in the NAS.

A growing series of reports, each focused on a key discussion point for the farming sector, brought to you by the Kondinin team.
