Local Land Services has launched its five-year Agricultural Services Framework that will help shape the way its key services and programs are delivered to best support primary producers through emerging challenges. The framework identifies priority areas where LLS will focus its agricultural service delivery over the next five years, which include supporting sustainable productivity, enhancing natural assets, and assisting landholders to manage climate variability. LLS Agriculture and Plant Biosecurity state director James Hutchinson-Smith said having the framework in place will ensure that producers receive the best quality advice and service into the future. "At Local Land Services, we are fortunate to have highly skilled and experienced agricultural services staff that can help producers across NSW implement new strategies and practices that can increase productivity and sustainability," Mr Hutchinson-Smith said. "Like all organisations we have defined resources, but by implementing this framework we can continue investing in local programs and training staff so the services we offer continue to address the biggest issues affecting landholders, communities and industry." Mr Hutchinson-Smith said the framework also outlines the important role LLS plays in assisting producers manage the risks associated with climate variability and significant climatic and market business disruptor events. "We know climate variability is increasing and with it, so do the frequency and severity of major disruptor events such as drought, fire, and flood," Mr Hutchinson-Smith said. "These climatic and market disruptor events negatively impact agricultural productivity and increase the risk of significant degradation to on-farm natural assets. "Helping producers to manage the risks associated with major disruptors can significantly decrease the impact these events have on natural assets, the wellbeing of people and communities, recovery time and productivity."
