82375 (2024). Hon Jo Luxton to the Minister of Agriculture: How do the five targeted funding programmes for Māori agribusiness specifically contribute to Māori economic development?

Hon Todd McClay: The programmes provide support and co-investment to help Māori landowners and primary producers to lift the productivity and profitability of their food and fibre assets. This contributes to Māori economic development, which in turn contributes to Māori social development, job creation and the prosperity of regional New Zealand.
