With the goal of developing a forage-based product to reduce N leaching from livestock systems, the Callaghan-Funded Greener Pastures Project, led by Agricom, collaborated with Lincoln and Massey Universities, as well as Plant & Food Research to research and develop a highly effective and practical solution to N leaching for NZ farmers - Ecotain®
