Nominations are now open for the the Rural Professional of the Year Awards.
We're proud to be working alongside the Institute of Rural Professionals and Beef + Lamb New Zealand in supporting emerging and experienced rural professionals from all corners of the country.
These awards recognise individuals working across New Zealand’s rural sector who are making a meaningful contribution to farmers, businesses, and the wider industry.
Applications are open to a wide range of rural professionals, including consultants, agronomists, farm advisors, accountants, veterinarians, and those working in environmental, policy, and agribusiness roles.
Both awards provide recipients with up to $3,000 in professional development support, which can be used towards projects, study tours, or further training aligned to their role and the needs of the sector.
