Dataset used to develop the "Agricultural and horticultural land use" indicator (available at https://www.stats.govt.nz/indicators/agricultural-and-horticultural-land-use)

​

This indicator reports on the use of land for primary production purposes, specifically agricultural land uses, such as beef and sheep farming and dairying, horticultural land uses, such as fruit and berry, and vegetable growing, and other land uses, such as forestry. We do this for the period 2002 to 2019.

GDP from Agriculture in New Zealand increased to 3779 NZD Million in the first quarter of 2025 from 3749 NZD Million in the fourth quarter of 2024. This dataset provides - New Zealand Gdp From Agriculture- actual values, historical data, forecast, chart, statistics, economic calendar and news.

These data were derived as part of a case-study, which aimed to give a broad range of stakeholders involved in managing New Zealands agricultural landscape a voice in setting farmland biodiversity priorities that reflect the biodiversity outcomes that matter most to them and the management practices they consider most relevant to achieving those outcomes. This priority-setting process represented the first step in the development of an evidence-based tool for biodiversity assessments on New Zealand farms.

Tranche 1: Project 3.3

Sheep and beef farms make up nearly 40% of Aotearoa’s landscape and play a vital role in our economy. At the same time, this land use is home to a quarter of all native vegetation and so acts as a refuge for many native plant and animal species, especially in the lowlands.

For many of us, urban areas are the first thing that comes to mind when we think of spaces that have been altered by people. But, as it turns out, these mental images aren't very representative of our overall land use.

This dataset shows the total irrigated agricultural land area across New Zealand for 2002 and 2017. Agricultural land irrigated in 2017 is broken down by types of irrigation systems and farm type.

Although it enables and improves farming, irrigation can also have adverse consequences relating to recreation, and can increase pollution and leaching of contaminants into waterways. Irrigation can affect the natural form and character of land (eg dry land to greener and wetter land), fishing, cultivation and food production, animal drinking water, water supply, commercial and industrial water use, and hydro-electric power generation. More irrigated land, and more water abstraction, can place increased pressure on river flows, as well as indirectly increasing pressure on land and fresh water by enabling increased agricultural intensity.

Daily rainfall values for 30 representative sites from 1960–2016. Rain is vital for life – it supplies the water we need to drink and to grow our food, keeps our ecosystems healthy, and supplies our electricity. New Zealand’s mountainous terrain and location in the roaring forties mean rainfall varies across the country. Changes in rainfall amount or timing can significantly affect agriculture, energy, recreation, and the environment. For example, an increase or decrease of rainfall in spring can have marked effects on crops or fish populations.

Tranche 1: Project 2.1

The spread of pests, weeds and pathogens into Aotearoa is a major cause of the decline of its biological heritage. This includes profitability of agriculture, access to export markets and the population viability of native and taonga (treasured) species.

To develop and implement modelling tools for nursery trade, livestock movement and recreational travel networks:

• Map generic patterns of likely introduction and spread through New Zealand.

• Identify critical points in networks for surveillance.

• Increase traceability so any outbreak can be traced back to the supplier or importer.

New Zealand Food Production and Nutrition Data Stack (NZFPNDS) contains 19 spatial layers informing on annual nutrition indicators for energy, macronutrients, minerals, and vitamins. NZFPNDS has been modelled employing data from the Food and Agriculture Organisation of the United Nations, AgriBase® (a product of AsureQuality) and Land Cover Database version 5.0. Produced for analyses including health and well-being aspects. Coverage of the New Zealand mainland, its near-shore Islands, and Chatham Islands is included for all layers. Results are temporally relevant from 2018 to 2022 and resolution of all grids is one kilometre.

Farm size describes the area of large commercial properties (registered for goods and services tax) that farm crops and/or livestock. It is important to measure the extent of these agricultural activities because their size influences the extent of their impacts on soil health and water quality.
