We are the only co-operative on the planet that tests for, advises about, buys, ships, stores, spreads, measures and maps food-creating nutrients and fertiliser in a truly integrated way. We also provide products and services in environmental mitigation, agronomy and animal health sectors. From scientists to sales staff, engineers to IT experts, the diverse team is focused on a common goal: to enable smarter farming for a better New Zealand by delivering quality agri-products, technologies and services.
