Proposal to Revise the Constitution

In 2016 the Board set about a review of itself and the Constitution. The results were presented at the 2017 AGM on 24 May and passed unanimously.

In essence, the Board recommended to members that its numbers be cut to five of whom at least three should be practising farmers.

The Board recognised that our membership is wider than when we were established largely for cropping farmers, and the  changes expand the focus to all land based production and more clearly identify the technology sectors that support it. 

The description and classes of membership were amended to reflect what is effectively happening. 

A number of Constitution changes were required to formally change the Board size and structure and Membership, and the opportunity was taken to tidy up some other minor aspects.
