Establishment
The Agricultural and Marketing Research and Development Trust (AGMARDT) was established by the Government in 1987 with funds of $32 million from the wind-up of the British, Christmas Island and New Zealand Phosphate Commissions. The funds were invested, and the returns provided grants and fundings for agricultural research.
Functions and Responsibilities
AGMARDT had six strategic intent statements:
-
Be a catalyst for the translation of international consumer, market, environmental and trade policy trends into potential opportunities;
-
Create a greater understanding of world class marketing, global supply chains, new products, new technologies, and business models within the agribusiness community;
-
Where there is a recognised gap foster greater efficiency and sustainability in production, processing and distribution;
-
Enhance the speed of innovation and its application throughout the production and marketing system;
-
Improve linkages between science and agribusiness in the application of technology;
-
Foster capability development in research towards advanced expertise.
AGMARDT aims were to foster and encourage research capability, leadership development and innovative thinking within the agricultural, horticultural and forestry sectors. It invested money into developing world-class capacity and capability within the agribusiness sector to meet the increasing demands of our international markets.
To achieve these aims AGMARDT invested in four areas within agribusiness:
-
Leadership development programmes;
-
Developing research expertise and capability within universities and Crown Research Institutes;
-
Providing farmer groups with seed funding to develop and evaluate innovative ideas; and
-
Funding international speakers and experts to New Zealand to speak at conferences and forums.
Structure
AGMARDT was an independent not-for-profit organisation. It was governed by a Board made up of 4 members, one of whom was the chairperson. Its daily operations was headed by a General Manager.
