Kiwis take to organics as the sector goes mainstream
New Zealanders are eating and growing more organic produce than ever before, with a rise of 127 per cent sold through supermarkets since 2012. The total value of the organics industry, both domestic and exported, is estimated at between $457-467 million, according to the 2016 New Zealand organic market report. That compares to $350m in 2012, a 30 per cent increase.
