Welcome to the
Institute of Natural Resources (INR)

“The natural resources of land, water and air support our livelihood, our lifestyle and our indigenous flora and fauna – our natural heritage. The Institute of Natural Resources provides the education, science, technology and advice that will take the primary industries (pastoral agriculture, crops, horticulture and forestry) of New Zealand into a sustainable future, and will ensure the conservation of our indigenous biodiversity.

I invite you to browse this site for the outstanding opportunities to further your education, to refine your career skills, or to discover the research and consultancy advice we can offer you. We face many challenges with the use and conservation
of our natural resources and we look forward to you joining us in meeting these challenges.”
