Prime Minister Bill English says in most regions Maori now have the potential to become the largest long-term investors.

On Friday the winner of the Ahuwhenua Trophy for the top Maori sheep and beef farm will be named at a gala awards dinner in Whangarei.

More than 150 people turned up to Pukepoto Farm Trust on May 4 for the last of three field days in the Ahuwhenua Trophy BNZ Māori Excellence in Farming Award for sheep and beef.

The board of Omapere Rangihamama Trust is considered a strong one. Its Far North farm is one of the three finalists in this year’s Ahuwhenua Trophy for New Zealand’s top Maori sheep and beef farm.

Māori don't talk much about the good things they do and don’t talk themselves up enough, says the Minister of Māori Development, Te Ururoa Flavell.

The three sheep and beef finalists for this year’s Ahuwhenua Trophy competition have been named.

Fonterra is committed to playing a role in advancing Maori farming interests, says chairman John Wilson.

It feels great to be acknowledged in this way and a huge honour.

For the first time in the 83 year history of the competition, a South Island dairy farm has won the prestigious Ahuwhenua Trophy for Maori dairy farming.

Three of the best Maori dairy farms are vying to win the Bledisloe Cup as winner of the Ahuwhenua Trophy competition.
