New Zealand has a global reputation for high safety standards and good agricultural practices in food production. Treating animals and plants for pests and diseases helps prevent foodborne risks to people. Continuous monitoring of our food supply shows that our use of crop protection and animal health products poses no risks to human health and ensures our food security.
Allowing all New Zealanders and our export markets access to safe, healthy and affordable food is the best thing we can do to support our health and our economic prosperity.
It is vital that farmers continue to have access to the best possible tools that enable the availability of nutritious proteins, fruits, vegetables and grains.
