Ravensdown has advisors qualified to prepare resource consent applications, farm environment plans, nutrient budgets and advise on sustainable farming practice for optimised nutrient use. Our team undertake CPD regularly to keep up with the fast pace of change in the agriculture sector. Ravensdown is at the leading edge of this, having co-developed a training course to improve uptake and delivery of farm environmental plans in partnership with Massey University and in response to increased legislative requirements for freshwater quality, and having its own long-standing in-house graduate development programme. We have experts who are industry thought leaders, presenting at conferences and publishing scientific papers to extend scientific knowledge and our advisors develop trusted relationships with customers so that they understand farmers’ and growers’ needs and priorities, and so that advice can be tailored to achieve those agreed objectives and trusted to deliver.
