Agrecovery Rural Recycling Programme

The Agrecovery Rural Recycling programme provides New Zealand’s primary sector with responsible and sustainable systems for the recovery of ‘on farm’ plastics and the disposal of unwanted chemicals.

Established in 2005 Agrecovery is a not-for-profit charitable trust put together by primary sector stakeholders.  It currently provides three nationwide programmes:

  • Containers for the recovery of agrichemical, animal health and dairy hygiene plastic containers
  • Wrap for the recovery of used silage wrap and pit covers
  • Chemicals for the disposal of unwanted and expired chemicals in agriculture

Agrecovery is governed by the Agrecovery Foundation whose trustees represent Federated Farmers, Horticulture New Zealand, Fonterra, Agcarm and Environment Waikato (for Local Government).
