Marlborough Flood Recovery
23 July 2021
A huge thank you to all our Marlborough farmers and volunteers who have already got in behind our farmers who have damage from the recent flood events.
Help and support work has started and offers of help are getting coordinated, and to those who are wanting to help out you can use the below links.
From our local recovery team from Federated Farmers, Rural Support, DairyNZ, Beef + Lamb NZ and MPI and all recovery services.
To all Marlborough farmers who may be able to assist in the cleanup
Below we have been working on a process to collect and collate offers of assistance and match these to clean up and recovery needs on flood affected farms.
Huge thanks to Federated Farmers who have worked to set up the following online forms:
- Online form where offers for volunteer assistance and supplies can be made: https://arcg.is/1riOW8
- Self-registration form for farmers to use to register for a call back from the recovery coordination team: https://arcg.is/1LvX1b
The Recovery Coordination team will be up and running from Friday of this week and will be able to use the information from the needs assessments and the forms above to call back farmers and match up available assistance to their needs.
Please add the above forms to your industry communications and send them out widely to your networks.
DairyNZ and B+LNZ also have a number of resources that are available to farmers and the sector to support the recovery. These links contain a lot of useful information and can be used as required:
