The NZAGRC is a core component of the New Zealand Government&#39;s approach to reducing greenhouse gases in agriculture.
</p>
<p>
The New Zealand Agricultural Greenhouse Gas Research Centre (NZAGRC) was opened by Prime Minister, The Right Hon. John Key on 3 March 2010. The NZAGRC is a partnership between the leading New Zealand research providers working in the agricultural greenhouse gas area and the Pastoral Greenhouse Gas Research Consortium (PGgRc).&nbsp; The NZAGRC is a &quot;virtual&quot; Centre and the research that it funds is carried out by researchers working in their own organisations. The NZAGRC is physically located on the AgResearch Grasslands Campus in Palmerston North.&nbsp; 
</p>
<p>
The NZAGRC was created to build on existing research, working with existing organisations to create and effective, trusted partnership to bring cost-effective, simple solutions to New Zealand farms, and contribute world&nbsp;leading results to&nbsp;the international science&nbsp;community.
