Every Hectare Matters
An Agri-business funding and external advisory programme from ASB
ASB’s ‘Future Use of Land and How to Fund It report with Lincoln University’ found that optimising land use by just 10% could deliver $10 billion in value to the economy.
Unlocking that value isn't just about determination, it's about having the right support.
That's why ASB created the Every Hectare Matters programme - providing expert independent advice alongside access to finance, so farmers and growers, including Māori landowners, can boost revenue per hectare and build a resilient future for generations to come.
For more detail on verification and eligibility requirements, please speak to your local ASB Rural Manager. Every Hectare Matters lending is available at ASB's discretion.
