Irrigation NZ recognises that education and training is an essential component for the industry to proactively move forward. From nurturing and supporting agribusiness community leaders, to helping farm operators with their day to day decision making – a complete package, from the biannual conference to field days, workshops and training courses, is being evolved, adding much value to our membership.
