Farmers and catchment groups leading the next wave of freshwater restoration
From nitrogen limits to ecosystem restoration –farmers and catchment groups are leading a new wave of environmental care, says DairyNZ.
DairyNZ is back at Fieldays and bringing their science, expertise, and some interactive displays along.
"This year, we're all about Innovate, Integrate and Collaborate, showcasing how our research and partnerships are helping shape resilient, future-fit farm systems," it says.
"Whether you're keen to hear about the latest science, connect with sector leaders, or explore hands-on tools to take back to the farm, there's something for everyone."
At their main stand in The Pavilion (site PC44), DairyNZ's farm system expertise will be in action.
The industry-good body is highlighting some key research, including:
DairyNZ specialists, board members and leadership team will also be there to answer questions and chat about how they're working to ensure New Zealand dairy thrives well into the future.
Visitors can also swing around the corner to site PB49 in The Pavilion to catch up with the team at Dairy Training, a DairyNZ subsidiary, who are ready to talk about free, NZQA-accredited practical training options to upskill farmers and their team.
Collaborating with partners
DairyNZ says getting off-farm isn't easy, so they're making farmers visits worthwhile by collaborating with other sector organisations to have multiple DairyNZ sites packed with value.
"This relfects our focus on partnership and integration, and the wide range of work we do to support farmers - on farm, across the industry, and for the future," it says.
"You'll also find us at the MPI Science for Farmers Tent (E38), where we're showcasing science projects supporting the future of dairy farming. At the Federated Farmers Advocacy Hub (D70, Gallagher Building), we're highlighting our work advocating to Minister and MPs on the key dairy sector issues."
DairyNZ says it cannot wait to connect with farmers at Fieldays 2025.
"Whether you're looking to explore innovation, dive deeper into science, or simply have a good conversation with people who get it, DairyNZ looks forward to connecting with you."
