OSPRI Competitors

From 1 July 2025, AgResearch is a Group of the Bioeconomy Science Institute. Our mission is to create a strong, sustainable pastoral agricultural sector for the benefit of New Zealand.

We work to help maximise export opportunities for our primary industries, improve sector productivity, ensure the food we produce is safe, increase sustainable resource use, and protect New Zealand from biological risk. We have staff working in New Zealand and overseas dedicated to providing the best analysis, policy advice, regulation, and service delivery related to agriculture, forestry, food safety, fisheries and aquaculture management, rural affairs, and biosecurity. Have a look at our website for the full list of job opportunities with us: www.mpi.govt.nz/about-mpi/careers/

As an industry-good organisation, we help New Zealand dairy farmers lead the world in sustainable dairying by investing in research, new solutions and advocacy.
