Real farms, real insight
Overseer captures rich descriptions of farm systems based on readily available information. Once a farm is described in Overseer, year-on-year monitoring can be as easy as copy/paste. We leverage data from over 15,000 real farms to provide you unparalleled insights into the environmental impacts of farm management practices, helping you make informed, sustainable decisions.
Innovating for
New Zealand’s future
For over 30 years, the Overseer model has been shaped by the dedication and expertise of New Zealand’s agricultural and research communities.
As stewards of this taonga, we work closely with industry leaders to continually refine the model. This collaborative effort ensures we deliver powerful impacts for the benefit of agriculture, our environment and New Zealanders.
Understanding the
Overseer model.
The Overseer model powers OverseerFM, enabling decision-makers to consider the potential impacts of farm management practices on nutrient flows, greenhouse gas emissions, and water quality.
If you need more information about whether the Overseer model is applicable to your specific context or scenario, please contact us.
Guidance for using the model effectively:
- Fit for Purpose: Use OverseerFM to better understand the impacts of farm management practices on soil, land assets, farm businesses and the environment. Ensure you understand the purpose of the model and its limitation
- Consultation and Resources: Consult with your rural professional, advisor, or our comprehensive knowledge base. These resources are designed to help you understand and apply the model effectively in your context. If you are still unsure, please reach out to us.
- Application in Practice: Apply the model in areas well-supported by data, particularly for regulatory or compliance decisions. In new or complex scenarios, where data is limited or the system is not fully understood, use the model cautiously to guide broader decisions, such as identifying areas for further investigation or informing voluntary actions.
- Ongoing Evaluation: Regularly review and refine how you apply the model, ensuring accuracy and relevance over time. If issues arise that cannot be resolved with the available resources, then consider reaching out to us for further guidance.
