Our People

With nearly 40% of New Zealand’s land under our care, Fonterra and the Department of Conservation have joined forces to design and trial solutions for farming and freshwater ecosystems to thrive together for the future. We are working on the ground, side by side, and with farmers, scientists, councils, mana whenua and communities. We share our expertise and use our collective strengths.
