Nature Repair Committee Outline of the Biodiversity Assessment Instrument November 2024 Nature Repair Committee Outline of the Biodiversity Assessment Instrument | November 2024 The National Farmers’ Federation (NFF) is the voice of Australian farmers. [...] The NFF’s membership comprises all of Australia’s major agricultural commodities across the breadth and the length of the supply chain.
