For the full benefits to be realised from farm monitoring and benchmarking it is essential that it is available to all farmers at an affordable price. The data must be relevant to participants, easily collected, and processed into a form that is easily understood. NZFT2000 is an example of how these principles can be put into practice for the benefit of individual sheep farmers and the whole sheep industry.

Keywords: NZSAPAB; Sheep; monitoring; benchmarking.
