We start 2023 with some exciting changes - NZDFI is now NZ Dryland Forests Innovation rather than Initiative. Our by-line has changed from ‘Breeding Tomorrow’s Trees Today’ to ‘Breeding durable heartwood, whakatipu taikākā mauroa'.
These changes mark the start of a new era for NZDFI, with the establishment of a commercial company, XyloGene/NZDFIP Ltd, which will handle production and sales of our improved nursery stock. We have a new website XyloGene.com.
