The New Zealand Plant Protection Society (NZPPS) is dedicated to protecting plants through the power of science. As a premier organization, they share the latest research findings on pests, pathogens, weeds, and biosecurity issues affecting plants in New Zealand. By connecting people and organizations, they aim to minimize the impact of these issues on the country's economy and environment.

Membership is open to both groups and individuals with an interest in plant protection biology and ecology in various sectors such as agriculture, horticulture, forestry, and natural ecosystems. As part of the Royal Society Te Apārangi, the NZPPS plays a vital role in addressing research, knowledge, and innovation in the plant protection field. To further their mission, they host an annual conference, publish relevant books and the scientific journal New Zealand Plant Protection, and offer scholarships to support young scientists in studying plant protection.

Additionally, they present a prestigious medal each year to recognize the contributions of experienced researchers in the field. Join the NZPPS to be part of a network that promotes plant protection research within New Zealand and internationally.
