Irrigation Seminar - Foxton Tuesday 23 September

AGM & GPS Protocols - Hastings 25 September

Welcome to LandWISE, an Incorporated Society providing leadership, support and research for the promotion of sustainable crop production in New Zealand. LandWISE brings together farmers, industry and research organisations to find and develop best practices and sustainable solutions for the process vegetable and cropping sectors in New Zealand.

Supported by the MAF Sustainable Farming Fund and our Gold sponsors, membership is open to anyone who shares our objectives.

Members and interested groups receive newsletters and project updates and get together in May each year for our Annual Conference. Field walks and workshops are held throughout the year. 

Current projects include assessment of a Nuclear Densometer as a tool to measure soil compaction, and investigating buried drip irrigation for row crops and pasture.

Previous projects include trial work on strip tillage, minimum tillage, controlled traffic farming, banded fertiliser applications, irrigation efficiency and enhancement. Results are published on the website and information is shared through LandWISE Notes and LandWISE Reports.
