Dairying for Tomorrow is the national dairy industry initiative to better manage our resources and ensure that Australian dairy farmers are successfully dairying tomorrow. The program is led at a national level by Dairy Australia and Australian Dairy Farmers.
A range of industry projects fit under the Dairying for Tomorrow vision and program. All projects aim to:
- Achieve efficient use of natural resources
- Protect the environment
- Help achieve recognition for the dairy industry's environmental care
The program, with support from the Australian Governments Department of Agriculture, Fisheries and Forestry, is coordinated in Tasmania through a Regional Coordinator. DairyTas Executive Officer Mark Smith is undertaking this role.
The Tasmanian dairy industry strategic plan provides a broad framework and direction for the industry enabling it to focus on priority issues and actions for industry in natural resource management (NRM).
An NRM Regional Action Plan has been developed for Tasmania and this provides a link with the strategic priorities for the regional NRM strategies and management actions in Tasmania.
