Property Management Plan

All applicants must complete an annual Property Management Plan (PMP).  The PMP is important because:

  • It provides details of past, present and future developments on your property;
  • It provides the Pod Peer Review team and/or the Auditor with a detailed insight into your property and your plans for the future;
  • It provides the foundation for evaluating how your property complies with OrganicFarmNZ Standards.

 

The Property Management Plan is available in PDF or Microsoft word:

Off-farm Inputs

Accurate records of all off-farm inputs are a requirement of certification. Most OFNZ producers have relatively few inputs. The purpose of recording them is to ensure compliance with the production standards - namely that products/goods/things brought onto your property are organic friendly and do not compromise your organic status.
