AQAssurance

AQ Assurance is an online system in both desktop and mobile platforms that enables cattle, sheep and deer farmers in New Zealand to record their on-farm activities to demonstrate safe and sustainable work practices.

AQ Assurance includes smart tools that will help farmers manage their on farm QA program, potentially avoiding product quality issues and improving on farm efficiency.

AQ Assurance’s Farm Policy Document is a live record of many on-farm policies and practices, streamlining the farm audit process by demonstrating compliance to standards. The Farm Policy Document automatically includes information from:

• People Matrix (skills and competencies)

• Animal Mortality Records

• Animal and paddock treatment records

AQ Assurance includes a Self Assessment which summarises important aspects of the farm audit. This information can be reviewed remotely saving time and money in the farm audit process.

Application records are checked against industry guidelines and label rates. Pasture withholding periods are calculated from these records.

AQ Assurance includes a stock treatment recording function that calculates withholding.

Both the paddock and animal chemical treatment system are supported by a database of the chemicals used by farmers and their agents.
