Is there a place for mātauranga Māori in farming?

Is mātauranga the same as and equal to western science and how does it work to weave it into our current farming practices and processes?

Māori agribusinesses are a large part of the Māori economy which is on track to grow to
$100 billion per year by 2030. Māori agribusinesses continue to grow and are a significant contributor to Aotearoa New Zealand’s economy as a whole.

In this episode, we discuss what mātauranga is, how it has evolved, and its place in pastoral agriculture in Aotearoa New Zealand with AgResearch Kaiārahai Matua/Director Māori Strategy, Research and Partnerships, Ariana Estoras (Ngāti Maniapoto). We look at how mātauranga forms part of an ao Māori worldview and how that can provide opportunities for innovation with Daniel Carson (Ngāi Tahu), founder of Alps 2 Ocean Foods, a Māori agribusiness working on innovating with dairy beef and a product that doesn’t just benefit his business, but everyone in the process including New Zealand Inc.
