Designed for farmers and industry professionals, the DairyNZ Econ Tracker was created to support informed decision-making with data when it comes to financial planning, forecasting and budgeting.

The tool offers critical information on international market trends and New Zealand farm and sector economics from DairyNZ and other trusted third-party sources. Information within the tool is updated quarterly.

As of 17 August 2023, the Econ Tracker has been updated to reflect current economic conditions.
