Our History

The New Zealand Institute of Primary Industry Management (NZIPIM) was founded in 1969. It was originally known as the NZ Society of Farm Management with farm management consultants making up most of the membership up until 1999.

The membership base has expanded and now includes a range of rural professionals operating within the New Zealand primary industry.
