Teachers from around the Auckland, Waikato, Hauraki Plains and Coromandel areas recently got a chance to really know their onions on a mid-March Teachers' Day Out.
The onion is set to undergo an extreme makeover, with the Government investing $2.83 million in a programme to enhance the competitive advantage of New Zealand’s onion industry, Agriculture Minister Damien O’Connor has announced.
Bragato Research Institute has signed an agreement on behalf of the wine industry to participate in the $27 million Lighter Touch Programme, alongside other industries including kiwifruit, onions and citrus.
Onion growers are celebrating being able to export to Indonesia again after clarification of its new import rules.
A new $2 million Seminis Onion Breeding Station in Pukekohe is “a terrific asset to have in that district in particular,” says Onions NZ chief executive Michael Ahern.

Onions New Zealand Inc says with 75% of this season's crop shipped, the industry is pleased with the direction it's heading in.
