Our agribusiness team is well-practised in the dairy industry. We can help you with a range of issues such as dairy conversion assessments, the associated matters of environmental law and sustainability, through to resource issues regarding effluent and irrigation management under the Resource Management Act.

With regard to rural property-related issues, we can provide expert legal advice on issues such as matters surrounding succession planning, tenure review, as well as helping to secure pastoral and renewable leases.
