Measuring What Matters

We want to hear from you!

At Local Land Services we aim to provide services which support you to manage your property in a bio-secure, profitable and sustainable manner.

We want to help you achieve your goals! To do this we need to:

• evaluate the value of our information
• the usefulness of our services
• and the impact of our support on your land management practices.

To get this information we are asking our customers to sign up for our Measuring What Matters Project, which includes a 15 minute survey as well as a follow-up survey each year for 5 years, where we will ask questions on how you:

• manage threats on your property
• manage natural and production assets
• prepare for change and emergencies.

We will use the findings to give you better information and services to support you into the future.

Sign up to participate in the project.
