Governance applies to all farming businesses regardless of size, structure or the stage of development.

It clarifies roles and responsibilities, direction, purpose and enables improved, informed decision making.

As businesses grow or change - and more people become involved - governance needs to address more complex issues.

Understanding governance empowers owners, manager and directors to make better decisions, using frameworks and approaches to direct where the business is heading.
