Summary
Business EDGE is a two-day financial and business management training workshop for producers where the aim is to enhance producer knowledge and skills in basic financial and business management to improve business efficiency and profitability. Improving financial and business performance is particularly important given the continued climate of declining terms of trade, increasing land prices, tightening credit and rapid national and global economic and policy influence affecting enterprises. Business EDGE (Northern) was last updated in 2015.
Objectives
The objective of this project is to update the workshop content material to include current business and market information and data for Northern production systems.
Key findings
The material has now been updated and is ready to begin the next decade of delivery.
Benefits to industry
This update to the material will ensure it remains current and relevant for the start of the next decade of delivery.
MLA action
It is recommended that some data (e.g. land values) be updated as new data becomes available and the entire material is reviewed every three years to ensure it remains current and relevant.
