Implementing myBMP: Grace Griffiths

Grace Griffiths was only 16 and still in school when she started working on the myBMP (Best Management Practices) certification for her family’s farm. She took on the process during school holidays to help her dad, it was a big task, but Grace was all in, keen to make sure their farm met safety and industry standards.

The myBMP process extended over seven years, and although it wasn’t completed until Grace returned to work on the farm full-time after university, she saw the lasting benefits. "I saw the value in being part of myBMP – not just for safety on the farm, but also for its impact in our markets,” Grace said, noting the opportunities it brings through initiatives like the Better Cotton (BC).

By 2021, with most of the groundwork already done, Grace set out to finalise the certification. “It was mostly done; we just needed to tick everything off and complete the audit,” she explained. The auditing process turned out to be straightforward, and much of the necessary documentation and practices were already in place.

Grace’s experience highlights how starting the myBMP process early and maintaining consistent records can make the final steps of certification easier, while also helping farms meet safety and market standards.
