FAR

The Foundation for Arable Research (FAR) is an applied research organisation responsible to New Zealand arable growers. FAR is involved with funding of arable, maize research and technology transfer... FAR funds, or contributes funds to, research programmes, often in collaboration with government funded organisations or universities. Involvement in specific research programmes is driven by the interests of New Zealand growers. Levy funds are also used to secure additional government funding through programmes such as the Sustainable Food and Fibre Futures Fund. Research trial results are communicated through on-farm events, workshops, conferences, publications and the FAR website... We support New Zealand's arable farmers by creating new knowledge, tools and technologies to support responsible and profitable farming.
