Public sector

Services to public sector organisations

Through our work with large numbers of farmers we are well placed to work with Government, Regional Development Agencies, local councils and other public sector organisations in many areas, including:

• Evaluation of alternative policies;
• Impact studies and modelling;
• Market research;
• The provision of impartial advice and business reviews to rural businesses;
• Sign-posting rural businesses to sources of funding and advice.
  

Examples of public sector projects we are currently working on include...

RDPE Northwest Livestock Programme

Kite Consulting is working with Liverpool Veterinary School to provide training and mentoring for advisers and vets as part of The RDPE Northwest Livestock Programme. This support package for livestock farmers in the Northwest is part of the Northwest's Rural Development Programme for England, which is funded by the European Union through Defra.

There are three key themes to the programme:

• Farm Competitiveness
• Nutrient Management
• Animal Health & Welfare

Kite is one of five organisations that have been appointed by the Northwest Regional Development Agency and has responsibility for helping advisers improve their skills and deliver best practice in delivering health and welfare plans on farm.
