ABOUT

WA No-Tillage Farming Association

Growers helping growers

Formed in 1992, WANTFA was built on the ethic of growers helping growers. 

WANTFA endorses farming practices that support the following principles:

  • Limited soil disturbances,
  • Permanent ground cover,
  • Diverse rotations, and
  • Reduced compaction.

Positioned for the future

The next horizon for WANTFA is where the Strategic Plan comes into full effect. The Board and staff have responded by developing an achievable and future focused Plan that will guide the organisation in succeeding through the transition period by achieving the following goals:

  1. WANTFA is relevant and valued by members,
  2. Research, development and extension meets members needs and is completed to a high standard,
  3. WANTFA grows its visibility and influence, by engaging members in our strategic intent and direction,
  4. WANTFA have a skilled, professional and capable team, and
  5. The WANTFA Board works together to lead and govern a strong association.

Our strategic goals

We will know we are delivering our mission to the highest level if:

  • We are financially stable with a membership base that maintains the area under management by WANTFA members.
  • We challenge our members and the industry on conservation farming practices and new technology through research, development and extension projects.
