Allied Farmers Limited functions as an investment enterprise dedicated to New Zealand's agricultural sector. The company historically held a significant interest in New Zealand Farmers Livestock Limited, which provided national livestock agency services encompassing the marketing, sale, and financing of various animals, alongside processing and exporting veal. This division also extended rural financial solutions to its farming clientele. Furthermore, Allied Farmers wholly owns New Zealand Rural Land Management Partnership, an entity responsible for managing the New Zealand Rural Land Company Limited, which acquires and leases rural properties. Founded in 1889, the company, based in Stratford, New Zealand, underwent a name change from The Farmers Co-operative Organisation Society of New Zealand Limited to Allied Farmers Limited in 1997. A recent strategic shift, becoming unconditional in November 2025, involved the divestment of its stake in New Zealand Farmers Livestock, repositioning Allied Farmers to concentrate on its rural asset management business and explore new investment avenues.
