What is it specially about new Zealand farming practices that makes our leather such high quality?


Agriculture in New Zealand is the backbone of the New Zealand economy, contributing to 95 percent of agricultural production exported. Pastoral farming is one of the main sectors of New Zealand farming, with the major type being beef cattle, sheep, and deer. There has been lots of research and innovation put into agricultural, with investments in education, animal health, farm equipment and more. There are lots of protocols put in place for farmers to provide safety of their animals, and animal welfare acts have been introduced to ensure that obligations are met by every person who owns or is in charge of animals. Due to these high standards in New Zealand it allows for the quality of the hide, that eventually get made into leather to be at a high standard, allowing for tanneries to have trust and confidence in New Zealand hides.
