DairyBase and MINDA Link Up to Cut Farmer Paperwork
Farmers can spend less time on paperwork, thanks to a new data sharing agreement between DairyNZ’s DairyBase and LIC’s MINDA software.
Dairy Women's Network and DairyNZ are partnering again to deliver four People Expo events across the country, this year coming to Oamaru, Ashburton, Hawera and Hamilton.
"If you're a dairy farmer that employs or manages people, join us at one of the People Expo symposiums to hear from thought leaders on what's needed to help tackle the big issues in empowering people for a productive workplace," says DairyNZ.
"You'll gain insights from experts, can connect with other farmers facing the same challenges, and come away armed with inspiration and practical tips to put in action with your farm team.
"While leading people can be tough, it is also necessary for good farm business management, and highly rewarding when you get it right. The People Expo events can bring you the information to better understand workforce dynamics, ideas on actions you can take right now and inspiration to get you going.
"Carefully designed in a fun and enjoyable format for farm employers, managers, rural professionals and aspiring leaders, each event connects farmers and experts to share knowledge and ideas."
Events are free to attend, and lunch is provided. Find out more and register online at dairynz.co.nz/peopleexpo
