At Barenbrug, we’re proud to have been part of New Zealand’s pastoral landscape for 28 years. Barenbrug is a New Zealand plant breeding and research company that specialises in pasture. We’ve bred, selected and trialled some of this country’s best ryegrasses, cocksfoots, clovers and brassicas. All backed by the experience and expertise of our staff. Founded in 1987 and based on a 224ha research st
ation near Darfield, we employ nearly 60 staff including plant breeders and agronomists, plus specialist seed laboratory staff, microbiology, and seed production people. We also work with expert research partners including DairyNZ, Lincoln University, AgResearch, Pastoral Genomics and Massey University, to ensure Barenbrug products perform now and in farm systems of the future. We are a member of the Royal Barenbrug Group, one of the world's leading grass seed organisations, with access to global technology that may otherwise not be available in New Zealand. It’s the result of a 100% commitment to pastures, innovation and New Zealand’s agricultural future: because we know people are relying on us.
