The two properties were chosen from the Cheviot Farm Improvement Club, which had shortly before joined the Lincoln College Farm Advisory Service. The technique employed was to forward budget, year by year, a suitable development programme for each property, with the present plans and aspirations of the owners being fully taken into account. On the second property, two development programmes were prepared, the second to allow a more rapid rate of development through borrowing additional development capital. Full details of the physical requirements and financial results of the programmes are shown in the respective case studies.enhill countryfarm developmentNorth Canterburyproductivitycase studiesMonographANZSRC::0701 Agriculture, Land and Farm ManagementANZSRC::140202 Economic Development and Growth
