Education and Training

The NSW Farmers Association aims to provide Members with relevant and accessible education and training opportunities.  The Association directly entered the farm training market in 2005, contracting experienced trainers to present practical workshops as required by Members.  Since then Members have saved many dollars from discounts and thousands of off-farm days through the innovative flexible delivery mechanisms of the Associations courses.

We are offering training in the following areas:

Chemical Accreditation

Did you know the NSW Pesticides Act requires users of pesticides to have training?

Common examples of pesticides are herbicides, fungicides, insecticides, pour ons, 1080, rat poison and many other substances.

Get accredited by completing a Chemical Card™ course.

Farm Succession Planning

Do you want to keep the farm in the family? Are you worried about how you will pass the farm onto the next generation and fund your own retirement? Is one of your children coming into the farm business? Or getting married? Knowing which issues are important and how to talk about it without hurting family relationships can be difficult.
