Annual Report 2017

As New Zealanders we are defined by our land.

As the Crown Research Institute for the land, our role is to ensure that all New Zealanders have the knowledge, understanding and tools to truly live in harmony with our land: enjoying its many gifts, preserving its unique diversity, and enriching it through our creativity, care, industry and culture.

We asked our people and partners what they expect of Manaaki Whenua – Landcare Research and in this report we present what we have taken from those conversations. Our commitment to New Zealand lies in our ambitions and our strategic focus and we will report regularly on the progress that we make.

This year we present our annual report in two parts.
