State-owned farmer Pamu (brand name for Landcorp) recorded a net loss after tax of $26 million for year ending June 30, 2024, compared to a $9m loss the prior year.

State-owned farmer Pamu, formerly Landcorp Farming Ltd has paid tribute to its chair, Dr Warren Parker who passed away last week.
OPINION: The Hound was not surprised to see that Pāmu – better known as state farmer Landcorp – has been told to tidy up its business model and better concentrate on actually farming.
