Farming a Sustainable Future | KinetiKit STEM Kit Worksheet

Farming a Sustainable Future adopts a student-focused, inquiry-based model; a unique sequence of learning experiences for students to engage with, aligned with the ACARA curriculum and the NESA syllabus. Students will be introduced to innovative sustainable farm management techniques at Banyula Farm, Northern NSW, through the locally produced video. Students will then engage with a hands-on learning experience to enhance their knowledge about the application of new agricultural technologies by constructing their own Sustainable KinetiKit Farm Model, with complimentary questions. Ultimately, students will develop an awareness of the delicate balance of transitioning to new farming practices, whilst still ensuring the farm productivity and yields targets are achieved, enabling correlation to the importance of innovation and research in farming practices in the NSW primary industries.
