ABOUT US

As a New Zealand farmer-owned co-operative we love the land as much as them, so we’re committed to farming more productively, profitably and sustainably.

Originally our core business was in fertiliser manufacturing, supply, sales and advice. But as the industry grew, we embraced the advances in agri-science and technology to lead the way in creating the best soil and food on earth.

We are a passionate bunch, and we love what we do. We don't just talk-the-talk, we walk-the-walk so if you align to our values of honesty, connection, bravery and imagination, come and make your place with us “Growing together, caring for people and the land. All in for the future of farming”. It’s a big ambition but we can’t think of a better one for the good of our customers and our country and we'd love for you to join us!

If you're a highly organised professional who enjoys variety, takes initiative and thrives on supporting others to succeed, we'd love to hear from you.
