This guide supports councils to assess and respond to the OverseerFM review 2021 and subsequent redevelopment, completed October 2023. It does not constitute government direction.
Previous Ministry guidance remains valid:
- When using OverseerFM, output numbers should not be used as absolute numbers.
- Regulators should continue to use a range of tools and evidence sources when assessing nutrient loss across farms and catchments (referred to as ‘a multi-evidence approach’).
