IPPS New Zealand

Founded as a chapter of IPPS International in 1971 and becoming a region in its own right in 1984, the IPPS New Zealand Region has over 200 members all around New Zealand. Membership consists of those working in many aspects of the nursery industry, researchers, academics, consultants and students all sharing plant production knowledge freely.

An annual conference is held each year in April or May in a different location around New Zealand with papers presented, field trips to local nurseries and attractions plus events for networking and socialising. This is an event on the IPPS calendar not to be missed! 

There are also two to three field trips held in different locations each year and some of these have visited overseas destinations in the past. IPPS New Zealand also holds an annual exchange with the Western Region of North America each year and has scholarships available.
