Impact of the NIWE Primary Producer Finance Scheme

The North Island Weather Events (NIWE) Primary Producer Finance Scheme closed for applications on 1 March 2024.

To understand how the scheme is helping, we are running a yearly survey of recipients from 2024 to 2028. The first survey shows that the scheme is meeting its early goals:

  • improving access to the funding needed for recovery from the NIWE
  • improving financial stability.

We will update this page with results from future surveys as they become available.
