FHA helps farmers and their partners in financial hardship. It’s a fortnightly payment for up to 4 years in specific 10 year periods.
They also get support to improve their long term financial situation.
Community groups play a big role in supporting farmers and their partners. We created FHA resources to help you promote FHA and help people in your community.
