Find out moreWe’re proud to be working alongside farmers to provide science solutions to farming challenges for more than 15 years.
In 2022/23 DairyNZ invested $67.25m into programmes and projects that support profitable and sustainable dairy farming, and continue to progress the positive future of our sector.
We have a breadth of useful tools and resources available to help farmers run their business throughout the seasons. They are tried and tested and have been developed using the latest science and research.

Sprains and strains are common injuries, especially during busy times. Together, with farmers, we've developed innovative solutions to help you keep a spring in your step this calving season.
