This report illustrates the value of evidence-based prioritisation of management actions for improving biodiversity and wider environmental outcomes on NZ farms. Using farm and industry level demonstrations, it shows how an evidence-based tool can help everyone achieve the best outcomes feasible with the natural capital available on their farm, working through this series of questions:
1. What are the effects of doing nothing?
2. What actions are currently feasible on the farm(s)?
3. What proportion of those actions should be implemented?
4. In what order should those actions be implemented?
5. What can be done next to add value to the farm(s)?
