In June 2023, DAERA commissioned the Economics Research Team at AFBI to evaluate advisory services provision in Northern Ireland (currently mainly provided through the Business Development Groups (BDG and EBDG schemes). You may wish to participate if you are currently farming in Northern Ireland.
If you have received an invitation letter to complete this survey, we would very much value your input to this study. We are particularly interested in finding out about your views on current schemes and areas where you feel advisory advice would be helpful to you in the future to support farmers in knowledge exchange and best practice at farm level.
The questionnaire can be completed online on the following link: https://afbi.welcomesyourfeedback.net/advisoryservices
or by scanning the QR code below using your phone camera when the phone is connected to the internet. The survey will take approximately about 20 minutes to complete.
The survey is anonymous, and you will not be asked for any personal details in order to complete it. As a thank-you for your participation, you have the opportunity to enter a prize draw to win one of ten £100 e-vouchers for each completed survey. Any personal information you provide to us will be treated as confidential and undertaken in line with GDPR requirements.
