Further growth is projected for the agriculture sector, following a 1.8 per cent growth in the second quarter of last year.
Governor-General, Sir Patrick Allen says the expansion in activity was achieved despite the challenges facing the sector, including the COVID-19 pandemic and the changing rainfall and drought patterns due to climate change, which impacted demand and supply chains.
Sir Patrick was delivering the 2021/22 Throne Speech at Gordon House on Thursday.
