Sharing knowledge across the Tasman 🌊🇳🇿🇦🇺

Tane and Clare recently travelled to Tasmania for Marine Bioconnect 2026, sharing AgriSea’s perspective and learnings with our brothers and sisters across the Tasman.

Their presentation included insights from Rere ki Uta, Rere ki Tai, and the work happening here in Aotearoa to bring together mātauranga, science and practical on-farm outcomes.

A valuable opportunity to share, learn and connect across the growing marine bioproducts sector.

580 cows. Seven years. Real results.

When small improvements are made consistently over time, they can have a significant impact on the whole farming system.

This case study follows a Waikato dairy farm that has been using AgriSea Animal Nutrition for seven years, with results including:

• Lower animal health costs
• Higher pregnancy rates
• Fewer empty cows
• Improved herd health and resilience
• Reduced reliance on animal health treatments

It’s a great example of how supporting animal health from the inside out can contribute to stronger on-farm performance over the long term.

Last week, Ashna spoke at the Australia New Zealand Marine Biotechnology Society Conference 2026 in Tauranga, joining a panel discussing the future of marine biotechnology. 🌊

The conference brought together researchers, scientists and industry to share the latest research and ideas in marine biotechnology.

A valuable opportunity for AgriSea to be part of the conversation, particularly around bridging the gap between research and real-world, commercial application.

They also discuss what's new at AgriSea and the results of a trial using AgriSea Animal Nutrition which revealed a 29% increase in weight gain for newborn dairy calves.

When soil temperatures begin to rise, your pasture doesn’t simply “switch on.” The first thing to become active is the biology beneath your feet.

Billions of beneficial microbes begin breaking down organic matter, cycling nutrients and making them more available for plant roots to absorb. Healthy roots can then take up water and nutrients more efficiently, supporting stronger, more resilient pasture growth.

That’s why the work you do in late winter matters. Supporting soil biology before the spring flush helps create the conditions for healthier pasture throughout the growing season.

Healthy soil. Stronger pasture. Better performance.

The future is rolling in.

Our new eco fleet is starting to roll out, with the first of our BYD New Zealand utes now on the road.

As we continue supporting farmers and growers across New Zealand, we’re also looking for ways to reduce our environmental footprint. Investing in more sustainable vehicles is one step we’re taking on that journey.

Keep an eye out for our new wheels as we travel the country visiting farms and connecting with our rural communities.

August Farm Checklist

Spring success doesn’t happen overnight. It starts with the decisions you make now.

As soils begin to warm, August is the perfect time to check in on your farming system and lay the foundations for a productive spring. From assessing soil conditions to supporting soil biology, small actions today can help create healthier pastures and more resilient farming systems tomorrow.

What’s your top priority on the farm this month?
