Summary
The Adoption program at MLA completed an annual impact assessment for producer adoption projects completed calendar year 2022. This project will result in the calculation of benefits obtained from PDS projects in the January 2022 to April 2023 period, and complete finalisation of the impact assessment reports (for calendar year 2022) for MLA Adoption programs that are required to report the impact figures in the Producer Adoption Outcomes Report.
Objectives
• Review PDS projects that were completed in 2022, and from January to April 2023 and complete an analysis to determine the $/ha benefit from these projects for those that showed eligible and worthwhile reportable benefits.
• Using the data obtained from the above PDS milestone and final reports, calculate the adoption curve (to 2045) and complete the PDS impact assessment report templates.
• Review the PGS, EDGEnetwork, MeatUp and BeefUp draft individual impact assessment templates provided by MLA, calculate the adoption curve and make any required edits.
