Beef + Lamb New Zealand Awards

The Beef + Lamb New Zealand Awards showcases the grassroots innovation, the farming practices, the knowledge and the skills that underpins New Zealand’s unique sheep and beef industry.

The Beef + Lamb New Zealand Awards foster the sharing of excellence in the sector and tell the New Zealand red meat story.

A progression from the successful Sheep Industry Awards, the Beef + Lamb New Zealand Awards were developed after extensive consultation with farmers, industry and agribusiness. They give individuals and organisations the platform upon which they can share the great work they have been doing within the red meat industry.

The Award categories are: Emerging Achiever Award, People Development Award, Significant Contribution Award, Rural Champion Award, Science and Research Award, Technology Award, Innovative Farming Award and Market Leader Award.
