Abstract

The project, Surveying On-Farm Practices, was initiated in 2019 to implement surveys in partnership with local farming and NRM organisations across multiple Australian states, to provide accurate information for those supporting improved soil and land management. It will collate a dataset of national significance, showing both breadth and depth of information on factors involved in on-farm decision-making for Australian farmers. The project is led by Dr Hanabeth Luke of Southern Cross
University (SCU) and funded by the Co-operative Research Centre for High Performance Soils (Soil CRC)

The 2022 Tasmanian social benchmarking survey contributes to the national Soil CRC project. Southern Cross University researchers partnered with Charles Sturt University, NRM North, NRMSouth, Cradle Coast NRM, Southern Farming Systems and Rural Business Tasmania to develop andundertake the survey. In mid-2022, a survey booklet was mailed to a sample of 2000 rural property owners holding land in Tasmania over 10ha in size. The response rate was 35%.
