Since the reform of its agricultural policies in the mid-1980s, production- and trade-distorting policies almost disappeared in New Zealand, and the level of support to agricultural producers has been the lowest among OECD countries. Over the past decade, this support consistently accounted for less than 1% of farm receipts, with an average of 0.7% during 2018-20. Almost all prices align with world market prices. Exceptions are fresh poultry and table eggs, and some bee products, which cannot be imported into New Zealand due to the absence for these products of Import Health Standards (IHS), the biosecurity standards that products considered to pose a biosecurity risk must meet in order to be imported into New Zealand. These restrictions result in some market price support – the only form of support to individual commodities in New Zealand – amounting to 15% and 37% of respective gross farm receipts for these commodities in 2018-20 and representing the majority of the low level of producer support. Support for on-farm services mainly related to animal health and for disaster relief provide additional producer support to a small extent.
