DairyNZ is proud to support the Ballance Farm Environment Awards, specifically as a sponsor of the DairyNZ Sustainability and Stewardship Award. This award recognises innovative dairy farmers who demonstrate a strong commitment to managing, protecting and enhancing their environment.
DairyNZ supports and encourages on-farm change initiatives that are positive, long term and environmentally sustainable. Dairy farmers’ levy money is invested into a range of programmes guided by the wider sector sustainability strategy, including research and development, farmer and industry advocacy, and training initiatives.
