People don't appreciate how difficult it is to change farm systems quickly, says Pāmu chief executive Steven Carden.

State farmer Landcorp (Pāmu) returned a net loss of $11 million in the year to June 30, 2019.

State-owned farming company Landcorp Farming Limited (known as Pāmu) has declared a net profit of $29 million.

Surfboards made of wool are the next front in securing wool’s long-term future for New Zealand’s agricultural sector.

The chief executive of Pāmu Farms of NZ (formerly Landcorp) says producers of alternative dairy foods need to evolve in how they farm and what they produce.  

State-owned Landcorp Faming Limited (Pamu) is expecting a $14 million boost in full-year revenues on the back of higher-than-expected milk and meat prices.

State-owned Pamu Farms of New Zealand can thank the red meat sector, rather than dairy, for its half-year result. 

Landcorp, no longer threatened with sales of some of its farms, has reported an after-tax profit of $51.9 million for the year to August 31.

New Zealand has been extremely good at farming intensification but that model now has to change, says Landcorp chief executive Steve Carden.

Deer milking, manuka honey, sheep milking and blueberries are among Landcorp's options for land it had planned to convert to dairy farms.
