Manawatu/Rangitikei

What's new

Introduction

Manawatu/Rangitikei Federated Farmers has more than 1200 members in a region that extends from Ohakune in the north to Otaki in the south.

The team is proactive and productive, and has faced more than its fair share of adverse events over the past few years. The team has taken a leadership role through these challenging times and has developed a close working relationship with both the Rangitikei and Manawatu district councils and Horizons Regional Council.

The province strongly believes that if it is a local issue, it needs a local voice. It is the voice of farming in the Manawatu/Rangitikei region.

Meetings

Provincial executive meetings are held on the last Thursday evening of every second month. They take place at Farming House, Queen St, Palmerston North. Other meetings of interest to members are held around the region when required.

Main issues

One Plan, local government rates, regulations, telecommunications and power.

Scholarships

For information on local scholarships contact Sue Wall, email: swall@fedfarm.org.nz
