Great day for flying!
It’s exciting to see how technology is changing the way work gets done in the paddock.
Do you think we’ll see more spray drones in New Zealand’s paddocks over the next few years?

We're incredibly proud to support the Year 11 AGH class at Central Hawke's Bay College and it's fantastic to see them out and about in their new jerseys.
Investing in young people is investing in the future of New Zealand agriculture. We can't wait to see where these students go next and wish them every success.

Nice work, Poukawa3030 👍

We are privileged to be part of the Poukawa3030 catchment group - come along on July 6 to find out more about the group and what is is trying to achieve. Make the most of a unique opportunity to explore the surrounds of Lake Poukawa and get a free breakfast!

What are Catchment Groups?

A catchment group is a group of people, who identify with a geographical area, usually based on a river or lake catchment, working together to take actions towards a common vision. Catchment groups form to take actions to achieve a long-term vision based on a healthy environment (from water quality to biodiversity goals) and a thriving community. Catchment Groups are gaining traction around New Zealand as a way to bring communities together and make meaningful change.


What is Poukawa3030?

Poukawa3030 is a fledgling Catchment Group established by a group of passionate locals with the view of establishing a community led vision for Poukawa for the next 1000 years, focusing on environmental and community enhancement initiatives.



Join us on the 6th July to find out more! https://poukawa3030matariki2024.eventbrite.com



And please share with friends and whanau who may be interested in coming along .

What a difference 80mm of rain makes. After a particularly dry autumn and start to winter here in Hawke's Bay, rain last week has got the green back into the grass. Still not much length to it, but at least it looks like it's growing!

The greens and golds of a Hawke's Bay autumn. Looking out over some of the cropping flats here at Brownrigg Agriculture, and back into the hill country.
