Summary

The increase in numbers of farmers considering organic farming as a viable option will lead to an increase in the number of conversion plans to be prepared in the near future. Good conversion planning can help minimise the risks associated with conversion by identifying potential problems, in particular feed requirements and stocking rates, animal health, soil fertility and nutrient management.
