More frequent pasture renewal is the most effective way to get significant production gains in a New Zealand farm system.

Increased pasture productivity is in the interest of farmers and the whole economy and that's because investment in pasture renewal can significantly increase profits and production efficiencies in the whole pastoral sector.

Superior pasture cultivars and technologies are now available to farmers to increase production thereby boosting both their contribution to the national economy and most importantly their own profits.

Right now there is a huge opportunity available to boost pastoral productivity using the technologies available in new ryegrass and white clover cultivars, coupled with improved pasture management practices.

I believe making a decision to replace old pastures with new cultivars represents the best investment any farmer can make.
