flag New Zealand approves $950,000 loan for Māori trust to upgrade dairy farm, boosting production and jobs.

flag The New Zealand government has approved a $950,000 loan to a Māori trust near Hāwera to upgrade farm infrastructure, including building a new dairy shed. flag The project, supporting 290 landowners, aims to shift from passive leasing to active farming, increasing milk production and profitability by up to 25%. flag The trust contributes $120,000, and the upgrades are expected to create jobs, boost the local economy, and advance Māori self-governance and farming training. flag Without the investment, the land would have reverted to less-productive grazing. flag Construction begins soon, with the new facility expected operational later in 2026.
