Certified, Overseer-based nutrient management plans for NZ farms — soil tests turned into a paddock-by-paddock fertiliser plan that keeps you compliant.
We’re farmers first, so we know fertiliser is one of the biggest cheques you write each year — and we know how easily that money gets wasted. As a Certified Nutrient Management Advisor, we build your farm in Overseer, work off your soil tests, and turn the numbers into a paddock-by-paddock fertiliser plan you can actually use.
The result is a full nutrient budget and a certified plan: where to spend on nutrient, where to ease off, what your N and P losses look like, and the documentation to keep your regional council happy. Save money, cut losses, stay compliant — no fluff.
Farmers face real pressure meeting council and assurance requirements while keeping the farm running. We help you navigate freshwater, NZFAP+ and land-management challenges with practical mapping and planning.
Fertiliser is one of your biggest annual costs. Guess wrong and you're either burning money on nutrient you don't need or leaving production on the table. A budget tells you what to put on, where, and how much.
More and more regional plans want a nutrient budget and a management plan on file. We produce the documentation so you can show you're farming responsibly and front up at consent or audit time.
Nutrient that leaches past the roots or runs off into a waterway is money out the gate and a compliance headache. Overseer puts a number on those losses so we can target the worst paddocks.
Everything you need for farm-scale mapping, certified farm plans, and regulatory compliance across New Zealand.
NUTRIENT BUDGET
We build your farm in Overseer — the standard nutrient-budget tool in New Zealand — to quantify what comes in, what leaves, and what's lost to leaching and runoff.
PADDOCK-LEVEL PLANS
Practical fertiliser advice built off your soil tests and budget — what to apply, where, and when — so you spend on the nutrient that actually grows grass.
COUNCIL-READY REPORTING
A full nutrient management plan written up and ready for your regional council, with an annual review to keep it current as your system changes.
A structured, field-verified process that delivers accurate farm-scale maps and audit-ready plans with minimal disruption to your farming operation.
We pull together your soil tests, stock numbers, production, effluent and fertiliser history — the inputs Overseer needs to model your farm properly.
We build your farm in Overseer and run the numbers to produce an accurate nutrient budget — inputs, outputs and losses across the whole system.
We interpret the budget against your soil tests and target levels, then write practical, paddock-level fertiliser and nutrient recommendations you can act on.
You get the certified nutrient management plan and the loss report. We back you through any council requirements and review it each year.
Practical reading on nutrient management plans — written for farmers, not consultants
When a rule fixes on a single environmental number, the pressure doesn't vanish — it moves. Two NZ examples, and why reading land as a system wins.
A soil test is cheap. A trend is priceless — and a single number isn't a trend. How to sample so this year actually compares to last.
Good soil information drives every decision from fertiliser to fencing. Which sources to trust on a NZ farm — and why a national map isn't paddock truth.
Get a certified, Overseer-based nutrient management plan with paddock-level recommendations tailored to your farm.
We model in Overseer — the nutrient-budget tool councils and the industry recognise — and hold the certifications needed to put our name to a compliant plan.
