Green light for PGP projects

This week we announced more than $45 million in government-industry partnerships under this Government’s Primary Growth Partnership. These partnerships will invest in primary sector innovation projects, and will significantly boost New Zealand’s economy.

The successful projects fund a diverse range of work, including a major supply-chain programme to expand the production of merino fine wool, a programme to develop better harvesting technologies for forestry on steep country, and a project to develop bird-deterrent grasses.

National has always supported our primary sector, and these projects are just the beginning. We can expect a number of further significant announcements around the Primary Growth Partnership in coming months.
