About this programme
Agriculture, agribusiness and the primary production sector are important to both New Zealand’s international success and providing food for a growing world population. Those working and leading in these industries need to combine advanced knowledge with sound practical application and a professional approach. Students of the Master of Commerce (Agriculture) learn to successfully operate a farm business, as well as understand the range of national and international issues that challenge agribusiness managers.
