Six Pāmu farms to open their gates and share their stories
`Join us as we open the gate to Pāmu farms around the motu
Pāmu Landcorp Farming operations stretch from the cultivated orchards and rich biodiversity of the north, across the rolling dairying hills of the Central North Island and East Coast high country, over the humps and hollows of the West Coast, to the lush Te Anau basin and inland Otago.
As a State-Owned Enterprise, we have a role in the communities in which we operate as well as responsibilities to the wider NZ agricultural sector.
Pāmu Open Farm Days, often held in collaboration with industry bodies and rural businesses, provide a platform to share initiatives and insights with neighbours and the wider sector. They are an opportunity to build connections, showcase, and provide extension activities.
Join us as we explore what it means to be profitable and efficient, an exemplar in employment and uncompromising animal welfare practices, and demonstrate and enable environmentally sustainable pastoral farming.
