Te Uru Rākau – New Zealand Forest Service (TUR – NZFS) will soon be going to market for a supplier/s who can deliver an innovative research programme aimed at advancing native afforestation germination and propagation practices. This project focuses on developing and evaluating forestry-grade sustainable containerised seedlings, suitable for establishing native forests as long-term carbon sinks. Suppliers will conduct research trials across New Zealand, testing different container sizes (125mL–500mL) for optimal seedling growth, field establishment, and survival under various environmental conditions. Integration of mātauranga Māori and maramataka practices is encouraged throughout the project, where appropriate.
This research will be conducted across three distinct regions: North, Central, and South (further information on detailed regional breakdowns will be available in the RFP). Invited suppliers will have the flexibility to bid for one or more regions, ensuring a broad range of techniques and options are available.

This tender has been completed.
