BROWNRIGG AGRICULTURE

About Us

Brownrigg Agriculture is one of the largest farming agribusinesses in New Zealand, producing a range of natural farm produce of excellent provenance. Privately owned by brothers David and Jonathan Brownrigg, the business is based in the highly productive region of Hawke’s Bay. With a farming platform of over 10,000 hectares of freehold and leasehold land, our operations span livestock, cropping enterprises, and complementary rural property investment.

The business is built on a solid track record in research and innovation, featuring a team of highly capable personnel, strong market integration, and sustainable production methods. These characteristics have supported a 27% compound growth rate since the business was formed in 1989.

David and Jonathan trace their farming foundations to their grandfather’s settlement in the area in 1930. With a long-term focus, Brownrigg Agriculture has the scale and internal controls to be a highly reliable supplier of premium products. The company’s supply base consists of its own freehold and long-term leasehold properties, comprising some of the most desirable soils in the country.

In its chosen niche markets of squash, prime lamb, and cattle, Brownrigg Agriculture is a leading producer in world terms. An enduring characteristic of the business is successful partnerships across production, service, and marketing.
