Entries are now open for the national Primary Industries New Zealand Awards.
This year's award winners will be presented at the Primary Industries Summit at Te Papa in Wellington on June 24.
The Primary Industries New Zealand Awards aim to increase awareness of the important role that the primary sector
plays in the economy and to identify and reward the most successful and innovative primary sector operators.
Other objectives are to promote New Zealand's primary sector role models in order to stimulate greater involvement and interest in the primary sector from graduates, investors, politicians and the media.
"These awards are all about celebrating the significant achievements being made every week, every month and every year by New Zealand's primary sector, and its supporters" said Federated Farmers president Katie Milne.
