What is the difference between CountryWide and the Country titles?

CountryWide is our flagship pan-sector brand, a premium, long-form publication designed to serve farmers and rural professionals across the full spectrum of New Zealand agriculture. As a member you are able to then select two additional publications to recieve annuall - 2 x DAIRY Country, or 1 x SHEEP Country and 1 x BEEF Country.

The COUNTRY titles are sector-specific companion publications built as practical “kitchen table” planning tools with deep technical guidance for a single farming sector.
