There is a growing concern about the sustainability of New Zealand's agriculture, and efforts are being made to promote sustainable agricultural practices. This note discusses four main challenges the country faces in transitioning to sustainable agriculture: reducing biogenic methane emissions, decreasing the use of synthetic fertilizers, managing water resources, and sustainable land use. It is crucial to have a coordinated strategy involving the government, industry stakeholders, and research institutions to successfully achieve this transition. Setting ambitious targets without providing viable alternatives or gaining farmers' support is unlikely to be effective.
There are growing concerns about the sustainability of New Zealand's agricultural systems, and efforts are underway to accelerate the adoption of sustainable agricultural practices. This note discusses four key challenges facing the country in transitioning to sustainable agriculture: reducing biogenic methane, lowering the usage of synthetic fertilisers, managing water use, and managing land use. A cohesive strategy involving the government, industry stakeholders, and research institutions is needed to effect this transition. Setting ambitious targets without providing viable alternatives to farmers or getting their buy-in is unlikely to be successful.
