‘Farm’ denotes one or more blocks of land, managed as a single operation, engaged in agricultural activity. Activities include livestock farming, horticulture, viticulture, nurseries, forestry, growing grain and seed crops, and land that could be used for these purposes.
Data calculation/treatment
Māori farms were identified by matching any Māori enterprise found from either the Business Register’s list of Māori authorities, the Business Operations Survey’s Māori business question, or through Poutama Trust with the Agriculture Production Survey.
All results from these collections are subject to non-sampling error, and sampling error.
The figures from the agricultural production surveys may differ from those produced from other sources, such as the National Exotic Forestry Description Survey produced by the Ministry for Primary Industries, the Stock Number Survey from Beef and Lamb New Zealand Limited, and Dairy Statistics from Livestock Improvement Corporation Limited/Dairy NZ. These surveys use different survey frames and designs.

About this dataset
The 2023 Agriculture Production Survey is part of an ongoing programme of agricultural production statistics conducted in partnership with the Ministry for Primary Industries. Previous sample surveys were held in 2003–06, 2008–11, and 2013–16 and 2018–2021, with censuses in 2002, 2007, 2012, 2017 and 2022.
Agriculture Production Survey measures farming operations below the enterprise level.
Method of collection/Data provider
The final overall response rate for the Agricultural Production Census 2023 was 69.9 percent. This was a lower response rate compared with the target response rate of 84 percent. This has resulted in some higher sample errors and imputation levels than previous surveys.
The 2023 survey had a sample size of 26,600 geographic locations.
