OSPRI | SPECIAL PROJECTS <strong>2014</strong>/<strong>2015</strong><br />
Contribution to community<br />
and environmental initiatives<br />
OSPRI worked closely with<br />
local people, other agencies,<br />
organisations, iwi and conservation<br />
organisations to ensure the TBfree<br />
programme outcomes included<br />
clear and recognised benefits for<br />
communities and landholders.<br />
OSPRI develops partnerships with<br />
the farming community, as well as<br />
working in tandem with relevant<br />
conservation organisations to<br />
ensure a more effective approach<br />
to pest control on public and<br />
private land areas.<br />
Transport<br />
The livestock transport companies<br />
play a key role in the implementation<br />
of the NAIT programme, especially,<br />
in relation to the recording of<br />
farm-to-farm movements. In order<br />
to gain a better understanding of<br />
barriers and issues, we conducted a<br />
research project in collaboration with<br />
transport companies. This involved<br />
a series of interviews, site visits,<br />
process modelling and data analysis.<br />
The research provided useful insights<br />
into the real life issues the transport<br />
companies face and will inform the<br />
development of possible solutions to<br />
help improve the NAIT recording of<br />
farm-to-farm movements.<br />
